They had all been deceived by the redhead clan, believing they were not a threat.
Because although the Uzumaki clan members were known to have greater vitality and a larger chakra reserve than normal, they were not taken into account as much because they were 'known' to have a low birth rate and were only good at sealing arts.
Fuinjutsu
While fuinjutsu was a powerful art in the right hands, it was very difficult for a power to become strong solely through the use of fuinjutsu.
Along with the time spent to become at least competent in art, everyone underestimated the redhead clan.
Nobody believed that the Uzumaki clan was as dangerous as the Senju and Uchiha clans.
How wrong they all were.
The number of red-haired ninjas currently occupying the land of water easily exceeds 20,000, a number that a Clan known for its low birth rate should not be able to deploy.
In addition to their low birth rate, the Uzumaki clan proved that they were also wrong about their battle potential.
The ability of these redheads to cast Ninjutsu was extremely competent, almost equal to or greater than the shinobi of one of the main villages.
But the most remarkable thing was the ability of these red-haired shinobi to increase their strength with a strange technique.
A technique that apparently all the Uzumaki could use and that allowed them to devastate the army of the land of water.
But that wasn't all.
The fact that the Uzumaki were here meant that the alliance had lost.
20,000 elite shinobi from 4 great villages could not defeat the Uzumaki clan and were presumed dead.
That meant the Uzumaki had defeated 20,000 of the world's best shinobi and still had the strength to invade the land of water and gain the upper hand.
They had tremendously underestimated the Uzumaki clan.
Everyone believed it was a Clan that didn't dare leave its island, weaklings hiding behind powerful whirlpools, and they didn't know how terribly wrong they were.
They shouldn't have provoked the Uzumaki clan and caused them to leave their island.
When everyone started looking up at the sky to see the person who had suddenly appeared, Toshiro had already noticed his appearance.
And while the others thought it was the Tsuchikage, Toshiro knew it was someone else.
'This isn't good,' Toshiro thought.
In this situation, trapped by the Uzumaki clan, the appearance of an unknown flying shinobi triggered all their alarms and they began to retreat.
Just as he took a step back, he watched in disbelief as a sea of golden threads fell from the sky and began to ensnare everyone present.
Villagers or shinobi didn't matter.
Everyone near the barrier and everyone in the safety of their homes were suddenly caught up in the sound of a golden thread piercing their chests.
Toshiro was not spared this fate and soon a golden thread emerged from his chest.
It didn't matter how strong he was.
These golden threads increased their speeds depending on their targets, and the golden thread that caught Toshiro practically teleported behind him before piercing through his chest.
'What is this?' Toshiro wondered.
Unlike the others who fainted immediately upon being caught, Toshiro was able to endure longer and watched in horror as they were all wrapped in fuinjutsu lines.
Imagining what would happen to the village of the mist, Toshiro couldn't help but sigh.
Given what they intended to do to the Uzumaki by invading them, Toshiro never imagined that the redheads would show them any mercy.
'It's over,' he thought as he fell unconscious, the one who could have been the Third Mizukage in an alternate world.

Seeing all the members of the Mist Village below him, Gin kept a serious face as he went over what his clone had sent him.
Gin had sent a shadow clone to take charge of the capital of the land of water and learned that this operation was over.
Looking at the subdued Village Hidden in the Mist, and with his senses able to feel the entire land of water under the control of the Uzumaki clan, a sense of accomplishment filled Gin's body.
He prepared his clan for this over the last 100 years, and the results were excellent.
Except for his appearance at the end to subdue the Village Hidden in the Mist and the Water Capital, the entire operation to subdue the Land of Water was carried out by the Uzumaki clan without his intervention.
If he didn't want any more unnecessary injuries and destruction in both cities, Gin would have stayed out of it and allowed the Uzumaki army to carry out the entire operation on their own.
With this war and subsequent occupation of the land of water, the Uzumaki clan gained valuable experience that will serve them in future battles.
There will be many battles.
After being attacked by an alliance of several villages, the Uzumaki clan needs to respond and strike hard at their enemies so that no one will ever think of repeating the same thing again.
The land of water was the first due to its proximity.
Then, the Uzumaki shinobi will deploy to fight against the village of the cloud, rock, and sand.
Meanwhile, the barriers of the water capital and the mist village fell, revealing thousands of red-haired shinobi who entered and began to put everything in order.
Since all the inhabitants of the two cities were trapped wrapped in seals, even if they woke up they could not do anything with their unresponsive limbs and sealed chakra.
Seeing that his subordinates had everything under control, Gin withdrew under the fanatical gaze of all the Uzumakis.
While 20,000 shinobi from the Uzumaki army took charge of the land of water, a group of 5,000 shinobi headed towards the borders of the land of fire.
Their mission?
Destroy the army of the fallen country of water that were waiting on the shores of the country of fire.
When the 5 great villages united, they agreed to confront the land of fire after the fall of the Uzumaki clan.
That is why thousands of shinobi from every village were on a border of the land of fire waiting for an order to start the war.
Of course, the Village Hidden in the Mist and Cloud had secretly planned to digest what they had obtained from the Uzumaki clan and not participate in the next war.
The Cloud Village joined the alliance because they were interested in the method of sealing a buju into a jinchuriki, and the Mist Village because they were close.
As a great power, they could not allow a potential enemy to be so close to them, much less someone who was an ally of Tierra del Fuego.
Regarding the upcoming conflict that would be known as the Second Shinobi World War, the two villages shared the same opinion.
As long as the land of fire, earth and wind are damaged enough, they will have a great advantage in a future conflict.
Of course, they had to put on a show, so those thousands of shinobi would remain in their positions for a while.
While awaiting orders to fight or retreat, the shinobi of the fallen Mist Village did not realize that an army was approaching from behind until it was too late.

It was several days later when news of the land falling from the water reached the continent.
Looking at the map, all the leaders of countries or villages were not surprised that the land of water fell into the hands of the Uzumaki clan.
After all, the land of water is closer to the land of whirlpools, so logically they would be the first to receive the revenge of the redhead clan.
Now that the land of water had fallen, all these leaders were concerned about being next.
The presence of Gin Uzumaki, a Shinobi God, was like a knife to their throats.
Thinking that at any moment he could appear in front of their countries or villages, everyone felt a chill in their backs.
What they were feeling now was the same as what the leaders of the countries felt when Hashirama and Madara were alive, a feeling of fear that increased after the final battle between the two titans that ended with Hashirama's victory.
The entire continent felt the effects of that battle, and many cities were destroyed after being hit by tailed beast bombs.
It was fortunate that Hashirama Senju was a pacifist, or else the continent would have been ruled by the Senju clan.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Hashirama's death was announced, praying that no other Shinobi God would appear on the continent.
And if a Shinobi God appears, he should be from their villages or clans.
Unfortunately for them, the new Shinobi God was from the Uzumaki clan.
