Eventually, intending to end the constant bloodshed, Hashirama Senju used his position as leader of his clan to broker a truce with the Uchiha clan through their leader, his childhood friend Madara Uchiha. The two strongest of these clans were the Senju and the Uchiha, who had warred against each other for their entire histories. The Uchiha and Senju establish Konohagakure.ĭuring the Warring States Period, ninja were organised into small mercenary clans that knew nothing but battle.

Many Konohagakure ninja use Fire Release techniques. They also tend to wrap bandages around their legs. The standard attire for Konoha shinobi consists of blue or black shirts which may or may not have swirl patterns on the shoulders, along with matching coloured pants under a green flak jacket which also has a red swirl on the back, and pockets on the chest area. While generally seen as the most powerful of the ninja villages, Konoha has enjoyed many years of relative peace and stability. It is surrounded on all sides by enormous walls. Konoha resides deep within a forest at the base of a mountain known as the Hokage Rock, which has the faces of all those who have taken the office of Hokage engraved on it. As the village of one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, Konohagakure has a Kage as its leader known as the Hokage, of which there have been seven in its history. Konohagakure ( 木ノ葉隠れの里, Konohagakure no Sato, English TV: 'Village Hidden in the Leaves' or 'Hidden Leaf Village', literally meaning: Village Hidden by Tree Leaves) is the hidden village of the Land of Fire.
