Jigumo belonged to the Fūma Clan of the Land of Sound, a spider-styled fighter drawn into Orochimaru's service by the promise of restored glory. His webs and creeping tactics guarded a hidden base until betrayal by his own master turned him against the very cause he had followed.
Jigumo was bald, and his arms and legs stretched out long and thin in a way that echoed a spider's reach. Thick brows sat above his eyes, and a scar ran across the right one.
Weary from war and hoping to settle down, the Fūma Clan wandered the Land of Rice Fields when Orochimaru offered to rebuild their strength if they joined Otogakure. That promise won Jigumo over, and he pledged himself loyally to Orochimaru. His devotion held only so long as the bargain did. When his master, in truth a power-mad Arashi wearing Orochimaru's face, refused to heal his gravely wounded comrade and clanmate Kagerō, Jigumo's loyalty curdled into a hunger for revenge over his friend's fate.

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....
Spiders and their silk were the heart of Jigumo's fighting, used both to attack and to scout, chiefly through the Wind Spider Technique, though his command of it was not especially refined. He could spit webbing and spiders straight from his mouth, and he scrambled across trees and other surfaces on all fours to complete the arachnid impression. He also wielded a trick that threw his voice from shifting directions, leaving foes unsure of where he actually stood.
He served as one of three guards over Orochimaru's base, alongside Kamikiri and Kagerō. When Konoha ninja arrived, he webbed Sakura and Sasame inside their lodging, but the visitors saw through a later poisoning scheme and turned on the traitors. Jigumo faced Jiraiya and fell to the Rasengan. Afterward he and Kamikiri carried the dying Kagerō back and pleaded for her rescue, only to be refused. Enraged, Jigumo lunged at the disguised Arashi and was killed effortlessly, his body absorbed into the monstrous form the impostor became. In its final moments, his still-living flesh was seen trying to devour Arashi as the lair collapsed.
