Uchiha, starting from the destruction of the ninja world

Chapter 54 Confiscating the property of Daming Prefecture

At the same time, Tobirama Senju had already begun his swift and decisive actions...

First, he did not hesitate to order the entire Hidden Leaf Village to immediately enter the highest level of wartime preparedness.

All ninja clans, Jonin classes, and even the ANBU organizations that usually operate infiltrated throughout the Land of Fire, began to act swiftly after receiving Tobirama's stern and resolute orders.

The ANBU ninjas acted swiftly and decisively, and within a single night, all administrative institutions and power departments in the Land of Fire were completely and forcefully brought under control.

Even the daimyo's mansion, which used to be high above and enjoyed privileges and comfort, could not escape Tobirama's strong control.

Tobirama saw the reality before him as extremely clear...

The countdown to the apocalypse is relentlessly ticking away, and the most important mission for the Land of Fire right now is to ensure that power and resources are concentrated to the maximum extent possible, and to quickly prepare for the impending catastrophe.

Any force that hinders this goal, even the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, has no reason to continue existing.

The Land of Fire, Daimyo Prefecture.

At this moment, this usually majestic and solemn mansion is plunged into unprecedented chaos and panic.

The twelve ninja who were originally loyal to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire suddenly changed their stance without any warning, instantly defected, and completely took control of all entrances and exits and important locations of the Daimyo's mansion.

Daming was pacing anxiously back and forth in his luxurious office, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

He cursed angrily as he nervously watched the cold, silent Konoha ninja outside the door...

"Hiruzen Sarutobi... what does he mean?! Does he intend to completely betray us and replace the daimyo of the Land of Fire?!"

However, none of the ninjas outside the door responded to his questions and curses.

They stood there expressionless, coldly watching as this once-illustrious figure looked around anxiously, like an ant on a hot plate.

The entire noble class of the Land of Fire was also gripped by fear and panic.

Konoha, this ninja village that is normally controlled by the Daimyo's household, is in fact the largest violent organization in the Land of Fire...

Once it was in operation, the privileges, wealth, and status that the nobles possessed vanished instantly.

The once-stable class structure collapsed overnight, and the formerly nobles could only tremble in fear and hide in their mansions, terrified that they would be forcibly taken away by the ninjas at any moment.

Behind this sudden and dramatic change, Tobirama's decisive and resolute nature was undoubtedly on full display.

In the past, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, chose to negotiate and cooperate with the Daimyo's government, trying to handle the apocalyptic crisis in a peaceful manner.

Now that Tobirama Senju has regained control of the government, he has absolutely no intention of negotiating or compromising with the daimyo or the nobility.

He swiftly and decisively abolished this redundant procedure, abandoning the once-lofty aristocratic class without hesitation.

Having lived through the Warring States period, Tobirama Senju held little reverence for the daimyo themselves. To him, the Land of Fire was merely an ally...

You can choose to build your village in the Land of Fire, or you can choose other small countries...

He didn't have much of a feeling about the daimyo. He wasn't afraid of the daimyo even in peacetime, let alone in this special period.

In a very short time, all the supplies that the Daimyo had painstakingly collected and hoarded were ruthlessly swept away by the Konoha ninja.

Even the precious medicinal herbs and rare ingredients privately collected by the daimyo were reduced to ordinary, worthless supplies in the eyes of the ninjas, and were quickly and ruthlessly inventoried and moved.

At this moment, Sarutobi Asuma stood on the open ground outside the mansion, silently gazing at the scene before him.

He was unaware that all of this was orchestrated by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju. He subconsciously assumed that the dramatic changes before him were the result of his father, Hiruzen Sarutobi's, decisive decisions.

Asuma silently watched the Konoha ninjas, whose expressions were cold and whose movements were swift, and a secret and complex sense of relief and anticipation quietly rose in his heart.

For a long time, he had a vague feeling that Konoha Village's tolerance and submission to the Daimyo was unnecessary.

Deep down, he firmly believed that Konoha, as the most powerful entity in the Land of Fire, should control its own destiny, rather than always being driven by a pampered and powerless daimyo.

Gazing at the chaotic scene before him at the Daimyo's residence, he murmured to himself, "Perhaps, this is what the Hokage should truly be doing..."

Tobirama's ruthless and decisive actions caused quite a stir within Konoha's leadership.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, as the Third Hokage, harbored deep resentment and hesitation towards his teacher's actions...

But he also had to admit that in this special period before the end of the world, he might no longer be as indecisive as he used to be.

Tobirama could execute things without hesitation that he himself couldn't bring himself to do, which was perhaps exactly the kind of iron-fisted decision-making that Konoha needed most at this moment.

After gaining complete control of the power structure of the Land of Fire, Tobirama swiftly launched the second phase of his operation to completely consolidate all important resources across the country.

Besides everything that happened in Daming Prefecture...

The same thing was happening in other parts of the Land of Fire...

All important strategic materials, such as medicines, food, and weapons, were forcibly requisitioned and sent to a specially established reserve base in Konoha Village for centralized management and distribution.

This swift and thorough control of resources quickly created an extremely tense situation in the Land of Fire within a short period of time.

This unusual development quickly drew the attention and vigilance of other major ninja villages in the ninja world.

The first to react was Onoki, the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure.

The battle-hardened and extremely perceptive Onoki immediately noticed the unusual actions of the Land of Fire.

He quickly connected these developments with the apocalyptic prophecy that had recently spread throughout the ninja world, and a very ominous premonition rose in his heart, his expression becoming extremely solemn:

"Could it be... that the doomsday rumors are true? It seems things are developing much more seriously than we imagined!"

Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village) quickly began preparations for war and stockpiling supplies, closely monitoring the Land of Fire's every move.

Following closely behind is the Hidden Cloud Village.

Upon receiving the intelligence, Raikage A immediately convened an emergency meeting...

He forcefully ordered all ninjas in Kumogakure to enter a state of combat readiness, and began to urgently mobilize various domestic resources to closely guard against a possible massive catastrophe.

Meanwhile, Sunagakure and Kirigakure were quite quiet.

Perhaps due to a delay in intelligence gathering, or due to internal problems, neither of the two ninja villages has yet made a significant response to the unusual movements of the Land of Fire.

However, the situation in the ninja world is like the calm before the storm; it appears peaceful on the surface, but in reality, it harbors unprecedented dangers and uncertainties.

Tobirama Senju's forceful actions were like a boulder thrown into a pond, creating ripples that could not be ignored in the ninja world, forcing everyone to confront the increasingly approaching and terrifying apocalypse.

However, the border of the Water Country...

A large number of former Konoha Root ninjas have appeared...

The leader is Danzo...
