Hishaku is a young sailor who dreams of captaining his own ship, though he lingers on as a restless spirit after a Giant Corpse Crab kills his crew. He crosses paths with Naruto's group at sea and cannot pass on until the monster that doomed him is destroyed.
Hishaku wears his brown hair to shoulder length, set off by thick eyebrows and light-brown eyes. He dresses in a white sailor's uniform with a blue collar and a red kerchief, topped by a blue-and-white cap, and he keeps close a worn-bristled broom handed down to him by his captain.
Honorable and steadfast, Hishaku refuses any rest until he has avenged the shipmates cut down by the crab, and his spirit keeps the vessel he once sailed in fine shape all the while. He holds his captain in the highest regard.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

Naruto built the transformation jutsu himself, and the Hidden Leaf has been quietly not talking about it ever since. The story behind our 90s R&B record about the Naruko question everybody dodges....
While voyaging with Guy, Aoba, and other Konoha shinobi, Naruto comes upon Hishaku's ship and first takes it for a ghost vessel. After a few shadow clones help with the sailor's chores, Hishaku explains the strange sights and shares his wish to command a ship one day. When the Giant Corpse Crab surfaces, he recounts how it slaughtered his crew and pleads for its defeat, then rams the beast with his ship to open a gap for Naruto's Rasengan. With the creature slain, he thanks Naruto and reveals himself as a spirit unable to rest, fading away to reunite with his late crewmates, who had lingered for his sake, so that all of them may celebrate the monster's end together.
