Hitode
CharacterHitode is the guard responsible for the Land of the Sea's gold, the tribute it ships to Kirigakure in return for the defence of its many islands. A sword rides on his leg as he watches over that fortune, and he appears on duty during the Kaima Capture Mission.
Appearance
Going bald and dark-eyed, Hitode has black hair and a face where the sideburns run unbroken into his eyebrows, moustache, and beard. His lips are large, he wears the boat-guard uniform of the Land of the Sea, and a sword is bound to his left leg.
Abilities
Beyond the sword he keeps on hand, which implies at least some grounding in kenjutsu, little is known of how he fights.
History
His task is to keep the gold safe, the sum the Land of the Sea pays Kirigakure for defending its scattered islands, and in the Kaima Capture Mission he turns up standing sentry over one such delivery. His name, fittingly for someone from a nation of islands, translates as 'sea star.'
