Earth Daimyō
CharacterThe Earth Daimyō is the former feudal ruler of the Land of Earth, one of the five sovereigns who shaped the shinobi world's answer to the looming Fourth Shinobi World War. Impatient and decisive, he pushed for the allied coalition before eventually ceding his seat to Danjō.
Appearance
A thick grey beard and moustache dominate his face, and the shadowed patches beneath his eyes, together with the creases fanning out from them, lend him a look reminiscent of the Tsuchikage. He is dressed in the customary robes of a daimyō.
Personality
A short fuse shows in how he carries himself. When the Water Daimyō dithered, he pressed him to give an answer without delay, unwilling to let hesitation stall matters with war bearing down.
History
At the gathering of the five daimyō, he openly doubted where the Water Daimyō's loyalties lay, given how slowly that ruler warmed to the Shinobi Alliance, and he threw his own support behind the coalition alongside the Lightning Daimyō. Sheltered later in a safe house, he grumbled about the trouble the shinobi were causing.
He and his peers passed a night at mahjong and cards, and when a messenger roused them over a strange light in the sky, all five were swept into the Infinite Tsukuyomi, from which Naruto and Sasuke eventually released them once the war ended. By the events of Shikamaru Shinden, Danjō had taken over his office.
