The village in the past was a normal peace village. We believed in a village can survive through kindness and at the time the village was quite prosperous. The village was said to contain some of the best fighters across the lands ,but what happen to said village? The once glamorous and elegant village? Rumors say the village was destroyed everything in it now rests in ashes in the graveyard of despair. Old kages and traces of the villagers seemed to vanish among with the village..The leaf village was discovered again by a Sannin named Marumasa and by approval from the other surrounding villages kages he has become the new kage of the destroyed village, fixing it into a new era. This new kage researching on the past of the village realizes the village even though it was good that they were peaceful they died because of it...knowing this he recreates the village strictly on power. Since that day the humble peaceful leaf village has gotten a new rank in itself. The village of power Marumasa has this to say about the new way.
"Our symbol may be a leaf, but that leaf stays onto the tree of power living on and never withering. We will not dissipate! We are power and nothing will change that!"
