Metoro Konjiki is a terrorist from Ishigakure and the younger twin of Etoro Konjiki. Wielding the Steel Release, he pairs his metal projectiles with his brother's Lava Release to raze buildings and merchant ships, and the two hunt the Kazekage in Gaara Hiden.
Little is recorded of how Metoro looks beyond a flashy ring he wears on one finger. Being his brother's twin, he closely resembles Etoro, a likeness the pair exploit to confuse their opponents, as Gaara observes.
Set beside the more talkative Etoro, Metoro is the quiet one, saying little.
Metoro merges two unnamed natures into the Steel Release kekkei genkai, shaping steel into projectile balls and defensive shields that dovetail with Etoro's Lava Release. He rounds out this arsenal with genjutsu layered over a basic clone, baiting enemies into moving first so the brothers can strike together; Gaara rates the pair's destructive potential highly. Marked in the Bingo Book, the twins target the Kazekage, opening with boasts that Gaara answers with his Sand Binding Coffin, only for it to close on a decoy. From above, Metoro launches a steel ball through a ring of his brother's fire at Hakuto, but Gaara's Shield of Sand and Wind Release turn it aside. When Shijima intervenes, compressed air hidden in her thrown weapons wounds Etoro, and the distracted Metoro is cut down by Gaara's sand sword, tumbling from the building. He survives that fall, only to be killed by Gaara once more in the desert during the fight against Shigezane.

We ranked the six most popular women of Naruto from worst to first, and our number one is going to start a fight. The official poll got it wrong....

The transformation everyone knows, the follow-up question nobody would touch. Why we made a smooth R&B track about the golden glow Dragon Ball never talks about....
