Inagi was a shinobi of Yugakure who turned traitor during an escort mission, murdering one of his own comrades for gain before Team Minato hunted him and his fellow betrayers down. He was ultimately killed when Minato Namikaze arrived on the battlefield.
Sharp-featured and dark-skinned, Inagi had grey eyes set beneath a mop of short, unkempt brown hair. His outfit paired a grey turtleneck and trousers with a purple flak jacket that carried a chest pocket on the left and a stomach pocket on the right. A bandanna fitted with a forehead protector circled his head, while a brown bag dangled from a belt at his back.
Greed drove Inagi above all else. He was willing to kill a fellow ninja for profit and showed no reluctance about striking down children.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

Naruto built the transformation jutsu himself, and the Hidden Leaf has been quietly not talking about it ever since. The story behind our 90s R&B record about the Naruko question everybody dodges....
Inagi and his squad were carrying a scroll of secret data under the protection of Team Minato when enemies ambushed them in the forest, splitting the group and leaving Rin and Kakashi with the Yugakure ninja. On the bridge, after Shinbu was hurt and fell from the cliff, Inagi and Babu revealed their treachery, striking Iwato from behind with a mortal wound. They then turned on Kakashi, who raised an earthen wall and cut Babu with his blade before the traitors withdrew with an injured ally. It emerged that Iwato had known a traitor lurked among them and had carried two scrolls as a decoy. As Obito led the pursuit, Inagi and Babu found the fleeing Shinbu and attacked their former comrade, only for Obito to shield him and Kakashi to join the fight. The traitors pressed their advantage in numbers and even wounded Kakashi, but Minato arrived and cut down every one of them. Inagi showed some command ability, directing a sizeable band of ninja and ordering the deaths of Shinbu and Kakashi.
