Looking down at the terrain below, which had been devastated, Uchiha Madara showed no emotion, as if he were simply tidying up some trash.

After completing these actions, Uchiha Madara retook his seat on the hovering chair behind the desk, slowly descending until he landed on the ground beside the square crater.

As soon as Madara landed, a group of fairly elite ninjas surged from all directions. Upon seeing Madara, they all knelt on one knee and respectfully reported:

"Lord Madara! All remnants of Amegakure have been thoroughly eliminated!"

"Hmm… What about their families?"

"As per your orders, not a single man, woman, or child was spared!"

Uchiha Madara nodded expressionlessly, indicating he understood.

Earlier, the thousand ninjas who had sworn allegiance to Uchiha Madara had been dispatched by him. When the Four Purple Flames Formation sealed the area, these ninjas had followed Madara’s instructions, hunting down the remnants of Amegakure. Every single subordinate and family member of the recently slain bald ninja, elder, and fatman (the Daimyo’s confidant) had been eradicated.

Now, Uchiha Madara could be certain that there was absolutely no one in Amegakure daring to oppose him.

Madara had considered subjugating these five thousand ninjas, but unlike the thousand elite ninjas sent to their deaths against Iwagakure, these five thousand had deep ties to the original Amegakure or the Daimyo.

There was no choice but to eliminate them all.

Don’t accuse Uchiha Madara of being heartless or cruel. Ruthlessness was a necessary trait for any ambitious leader.

Madara didn’t want these remnants causing trouble in the future when Amegakure had stabilized and prospered. Although he wasn’t afraid of dealing with such problems, preemptively eliminating them was certainly preferable.

As Uchiha Madara pondered, the thousand ninjas who had sworn loyalty to him now had time to carefully observe the devastating destruction before them.

Looking at the terrifying crater, with all the buildings inside completely crushed, the bodies of the five thousand ninjas scattered in disarray, the scene was chilling. It deepened the ninjas' understanding of Madara’s terrifying power and increased their reverence for him.

However, despite its awe-inspiring nature, this feat also presented a troubling issue.

One jounin felt distressed and cautiously approached Madara.

"Lord Madara, this huge crater and extensive destruction—how will we fill it, and how will we rebuild afterward? Amegakure has been war-torn for years, and its finances and resources are utterly depleted."

Madara understood and was confident in his solution.

"I’ve reviewed countless files of Amegakure. I know exactly how corrupt the situation is. Rest assured—I have a plan."

As he spoke, Uchiha Madara stood up from his chair and walked to the edge of the crater.

The eyes of the assembled ninjas were fixed on him, eager to see what he would do.

Assessing the depth and diameter of the crater, Madara made his decision. Standing there, he formed seals and slammed his palms into the ground.

*"Earth Release: Ground-Shaking Core!"*

Correct, an Earth Release jutsu!

After awakening the Eternal Rinnegan, Madara had access to all five chakra natures, so using large-scale Earth Release techniques was nothing unusual.

Incidentally, many of the Earth Release jutsus Madara now possessed had been copied from Darui’s Earth Release techniques using his Sharingan. It was incredibly convenient.

As the jutsu activated, the terrain and rock layers within the crater began to shift, and the displaced soil gradually returned to fill the crater. Slowly, it was filled.

The Ground-Shaking Core jutsu was designed to alter terrain, and in the Fourth Great Ninja War, Darui had used it to dig extensive trenches. Now, Madara was using it to fill the crater.

The crater caused by the Super Shinra Tensei was vast, and it took Madara three minutes to completely fill it. He then spent another minute compacting the foundation.

Watching the rapidly transformed landscape before him, Madara stood up and nodded approvingly.

Behind him, the ninjas were in awe. They had never seen such a large-scale Earth Release technique.

But what awaited them next would leave them even more astounded.

Madara quickly formed seals:

"Wood Release: Connected Columns House!"

As soon as Madara finished speaking, wooden pillars began sprouting from the flat, empty ground. The wooden structures automatically formed sturdy houses as they emerged.

In less than half a minute, dense rows of sturdy wooden houses appeared, covering the area. They seamlessly linked with the existing buildings.

From above, the entire Amegakure appeared almost unchanged, except for the central area of the houses, which looked fresh and spacious.

Madara completed his jutsu and stood back.

The ninjas behind him were stunned, their jaws dropping in disbelief.

This was incredible!

And this operation that instantly created houses!

By the way, what jutsu did Lord Madara use just now? It seemed to be Wood Release!

My goodness, the legendary strongest jutsu—Wood Release!

Isn’t that the technique of the First Hokage, the God of Shinobi, Hashirama Senju!?

Lord Madara knows this jutsu too!!!

In an instant, exclamations of admiration rippled through the crowd of ninjas. They couldn’t admire Uchiha Madara more.

Madara remained expressionless and turned to issue orders to the gathered ninjas:

"You—go quickly and prepare the administrative building in the center. I need to continue working inside. Oh, and remember to relocate the civilians who were previously evacuated back to their homes."

"Yes, Lord Madara!" × n

Correct, you heard that right.

Before this incident, Uchiha Madara had relocated the civilians from this region. The Super Shinra Tensei.hadn’t harmed a single civilian—it had only unavoidably destroyed their homes.
