Ishida style 3rd file rook. where do you attack at?

I am curious where you attack at with this style of play. it seems like it main strength is that it defends most attacks coming from the opponent's rook side, but I don't see how you advance your attack.

Hi,
first, you'd have to go beyond this study, as these variations are not exactly mainstream. Two, Ishida is broad and tricky. There's Haya-Ishida, Masuda-shiki, B-77 style. Sometime you even sacrifice the Nx85.

These videos are a bit old, but it should give you a good basic idea of the strategy:
