Konoha trains Yu Tian's generation through the Ninja Academy, where practical examinations and combat instruction reveal the early talents of figures such as Kakashi Hatake and Uchiha Obito. After graduation, Konoha assigns genin teams under jonin instructors, including Kushina Uzumaki's team of Yu Tian, Asuma Sarutobi, and Kurenai Yuhi. 4 5 8 12

The village deploys young teams on C-rank missions beyond its borders, initially against bandits and later in the Rice Field Country. Konoha's intervention exposes Inada Kai's conspiracy with Sunagakure, secures Princess Tachibana's position, and prompts diplomatic negotiations with the Land of Wind after Sunagakure's involvement is exposed. 18 20 31 32 34 36
