The day he took over the Hokage hat, Konoha Village was on the verge of destruction.
His predecessor, the Hokage, fell on a foreign battlefield.
The village treasury was empty.
Enemies hover around Konoha like vultures, waiting for Konoha's destruction.
Hiruzen Sarutobi inherited a legacy of blood and fire, a village destined for slow and painful decline.
Everyone expected him to become a wartime Hokage.
Everyone expected him to sacrifice a generation in exchange for a few years of fragile peace.
But this Sarutobi... Was different.
[Task: Stabilize the village. Goal: Eliminate insider threats. Ultimate goal: create an unbreakable foundation.
For years, he watched his closest friend Danzo Shimura lust for darkness, believing that power could only grow from the shadows.
He saw families plotting for power, while the Elders were content with their old ways of warfare.
Thus, he offered Danzo a new kind of darkness; not the secrets of humanity, but the secrets of logistics and supplies.
Ninjutsu can win a battle, strategy can win a war, but infrastructure... Infrastructure builds empires.
The age of the Ninja God is over, and the age of the Architect has begun.
I hope you can give me more guidance
