Claw Daimyō
CharacterThe Claw Daimyō rules the Land of Claws and reached out to the neighbouring Fang Daimyō as their nations drifted toward war. A devoted reader of the Icha Icha novels, he ends up brokering peace through a strange mix-up involving one of Naruto's ghostwritten drafts.
Appearance
He is identified only as the reigning lord of the Land of Claws. The story keeps his physical description sparse, defining him through his rank and his personal tastes rather than any distinctive look.
Personality
The daimyō is an enthusiastic follower of the Icha Icha series and takes great delight in receiving gifts. Above all else, he hopes to keep his people at peace with those around them.
History
With his country edging toward open conflict, the Claw Daimyō dispatched a conciliatory message to the Fang Daimyō. The courier ninja carrying it, however, swapped the letter for a manuscript of an unreleased Icha Icha novel that Naruto had secretly ghostwritten. Being a fan of the books himself, the Fang Daimyō mistook the pages for a peace offering, and that accidental gift ended up defusing the looming war.
