• The Uchiha Military Police Force enforced strict wartime rules, while Namikaze Minato publicly backed its judgments and residents who left were blacklisted from returning.

Namikaze Minato, Tsunade, and Senju Tobirama met the visitors from the Other World at the Uchiha Compound and learned they intended only to help with specific matters. Tobirama worried that their growing ability to send people across worlds might eventually bring Uchiha Jin, while Tsunade joyfully reunited with another world's Uzumaki Mito.

• Namikaze Minato, Tsunade, and Senju Tobirama went to the Uchiha Compound to meet the visitors from the Other World.
• Shisui led the trio to Fugaku's living room, where they exchanged greetings and discussed the differences between their worlds.

• Senju Tobirama privately feared that the Other World's growing ability to send people across worlds might eventually allow Uchiha Jin to arrive, but he stayed silent because resistance seemed futile.
• Uzumaki Mito arrived, patted Tsunade on the head, and welcomed her and Tobirama.

The visitors from the Other World learned that Akatsuki had killed Kumogakure’s leaders before joining Konoha, and Tobirama No. 1 advised Tobirama No. 2 to focus on strength rather than political power. Nara Shikaichi warned that the Sage of Six Paths could already know about the visitors and might attack before their world’s powerhouses could cross over.

He revealed Uchiha Jin’s intelligence about potential allies and powerful enemies, leaving the group facing the threat of an early confrontation.

• Nara Shikaichi explained that powerful newcomers who died and entered the Pure Land could expose their presence to the Sage of Six Paths, putting them and the Shinobi World at risk.
• Nara Shikaichi urged the group to move faster, kill the daimyo and nobles, and change the course of the plot to gain Fortune and stabilize the passage between worlds.
• Nara Shikaichi described Mount Myōboku as loyal to the Sage of Six Paths, Ryūchi Cave as opportunistic, and Shikkotsu Forest as unlikely to help either side.
• Nara Shikaichi identified Kaguya Otsutsuki, Ōtsutsuki Hamura, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, and Otsutsuki Toneri as threats, warning that Toneri must not obtain the Hyuga Clan’s eyes.
• Nara Shikaichi warned that the Sage of Six Paths might intervene early, and the group might have to face hidden Otsutsuki powers before Uchiha Jin could arrive.

After hearing how powerful Uchiha Jin was, the leaders of this world accepted that they could not face the Otsutsuki alone and focused on preparing for war. They left the meeting hoping Uchiha Jin would arrive and protect them.

• Tobirama No. 2 asked how Uchiha Jin had become powerful enough to kill the Sage of Six Paths and whether their world's Uchiha could reach the same level.
• Tobirama No. 1 explained that Uchiha Jin's greatest strength was his overwhelming Fire Release, which had nearly burned him to ashes from sixty kilometers away.
• Everyone present was shocked by the account and wondered how to strengthen their own Fire Release, unaware that Uchiha Jin was using Ryujin Jakka.
• Minato No. 2 urged the others to unify the Shinobi World, obtain Nagato's Rinnegan, and prepare to face stronger enemies.

• Konoha’s plan set Daimyo’s Mansions across many nations ablaze, and the shinobi villages deployed forces to investigate and guard them.

After Konoha and Sunagakure moved against their Daimyo's Mansions, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure chose to follow, plunging the Shinobi World into upheaval. Mei Terumī agreed that Kirigakure should seize the Daimyo's Mansion assets to restore the village.

• Mabui and the others persuaded the Fourth Raikage not to attack Konoha, and he ordered Kumogakure to take control of the Daimyo's Mansion and stabilize the Land of Lightning.
• Ōnoki inferred that Kumogakure would follow the other villages and ordered Iwagakure to seize its Daimyo's Mansion and establish stable rule.
• The Four Great Nations turned inward to take over their Daimyo's Mansions, while smaller nations began doing the same.
• Mei Terumī was bewildered by the upheaval, and Genji advised Kirigakure to follow the other villages and use the Daimyo's Mansion assets to restore the village.
