Furudokage

The Firudokage is the Kage of Noharagakure, a title bestowed on the village's leader. The Firudokage is generally regarded as the strongest shinobi in the village. There have been seven Firudokage in the village's history.

The Firudokage position was created shortly after the creation of Nohara by Yorichi Uzumaki, and Tokito Nara, two of the village's founders. Yorichi intended the title to be given to his other co-founder, Takumi Uchiha, but the village's population instead selected Yorichi as the First Firudokage. Takumi feared that Yorichi's selection was the first step in making the Firudokage office an extension of the Nara clan's authority, a fear Yorichi denied. Despite this, all of the village's Firudokage have traced back to Yorichi in some way: the Second was his co-founder and close friend; the Third was both the student and grandson of his; the Fourth was a student of the Third; the Fifth is his granddaughter; the Sixth was both a student and son of the Third; the Seventh is a close-friend of Sixth and descendant of the Second.

The Firudokage typically selects their successor. If they die or are otherwise incapacitated, the next Firudokage is instead chosen by the Mizunoto of the Land of Fire with the advice of the committee, the Nohara Council, the Jōnin Commander and a representative of the Anbu. This choice must then be approved by Nohara's jōnin. If one of the Firudokage's predecessors is still alive, they may return to office rather than select a new Firudokage, as when the Third came out of retirement following the Fourth's death. The Firudokage's inauguration is a major event in Nohara, with most of the village attending. The new Firudokage is granted a ceremonial haori on the occasion; the same woman has embroidered the haori for all seven Firudokage. Once they assume the duties of Firudokage, their face is carved into the Firudokage Rock and they usually move in to the Firudokage Residence. The Firudokage's office is located in the administrative section of the Academy.

First Firudokage
Yorichi Uzumaki was a member of the famed Uzumaki clan. He himself was hailed as the "God of Shinobi" for his unmatched ninja prowess. Yorichi sought peace for the shinobi world, and to that end founded Noharagakure with his childhood friends and rivals: Takumi Uchiha and Tokito Nara. He would later become the First Firudo kage of Noharagakure. Although he was not able to achieve peace during his lifetime, his legacy and vision for the world would continue to shape the village and the entire shinobi world even after his death.

Second Furudokage
Tokito Nara was a member of the renowned Nara clan, who, together with his close friends and rivals; Yorichi Uzumaki and Takumi Uchiha, founded the first shinobi village: Noharagakure. Throughout his lifetime, Tokito would work tirelessly to achieve political stability and implement the institutions that made the village system work, thus ensuring Nohara's continuity and prosperity. After Yorichi's death, he would earn the title of Second Firudo kage 

Third Firudokage
Mukai Uzumaki was the Third Firudo kage  of Noharagakure. The grandson of the first Firudokage, and disciple of the village's second Firudokage, Mukai was a powerful ninja, hailed as a "Peacemaker of Shinobi". Though he was only ever directly the teacher of one of the legendary sannin and the fourth Firudokage, generations of Nohara shinobi benefited from his wisdom during his lifetime.

Fourth Firudokage
Rodgetta Tomioka was the Fourth Firudo kage  of Noharagakure. She was renowned all over the world for her speed, leading her to be dubbed as Nohara's Red Flash. She died during the Helicoprion attack, sacrificing her life for the village. This has caused her to be known as "The Shinobi with the Greatest Sacrifice".
