Fox-Masked Anbu Member
CharacterA masked operative of Konoha's Anbu, known by his white fox mask. He turns up on two dangerous assignments: minding the volatile Yakumo Kurama, and shielding Tsunade during Pain's devastating strike on the village.
Appearance
Brown hair falls short and shaggy above a pale fox mask, its face marked by a pair of blue lines on each side. He wears the regular field dress of the Konoha Anbu.
Abilities
His Anbu rank alone points to considerable skill. A sword rides at his side, suggesting training with the blade, and he has shown a precise hand with shuriken, striking several targets at once without a miss.
History
In Part I he is assigned to watch over Yakumo Kurama and the residence where she stays, keeping an eye on her unruly genjutsu. When she slips away and turns her power on Konoha, he and two medical-nin subdue her and return her home before Naruto can step in. Soon after, shinobi of the Kurama Clan surround the three; he sends one medic for aid and takes on the attackers, believing he has beaten them all before he realizes he is caught in an illusion. Guy's squad breaks the clan and frees him.
During Pain's assault in Part II, he joins Yūgao Uzuki and two more Anbu to guard Tsunade as she uses Katsuyu to heal the wounded across the village. As Pain closes in, the group channels chakra into their feet to brace against his power, but when the Deva Path lets loose a massive Shinra Tensei, the blast catches him and tears him away from the others. His fate afterward is left unknown. Notably, his mask and hairstyle match those of a Team Ro member and a Root operative seen elsewhere in the series.
