Kihō

Pale, pasty skin and white hair set Kihō apart, along with blue-framed glasses tinted orange over his eyes. His outfit runs to a dark purple cloak edged in orange, blue trousers, and tan geta strapped over black.

Kihō comes across as blunt, falling in line with Rinji's schemes without argument. He shares his teammates' wish to escape Orochimaru and, terrified of dying, will do whatever it takes to survive, grimly nicknaming death going boom after Kabuto's methods.

Kihō fights from a distance, relying on a rocket launcher fixed to his wrist. It fires smoke bombs that blot out a target's sight, and he can shape that smoke into a suffocating dragon that ignores physical blows because it has no solid form. The technique carries a clear vulnerability to Water Release, which is how Yamato eventually undid it. A cursed seal swells his chakra and offensive power enough to overturn earlier losses, but like the others he must swallow a pill in time or the mark tears him apart from inside.

When Team Guren moved against the Konoha ninja, Kihō was beaten by Rock Lee, Tenten, and Kiba before Yamato finally killed him, dismantling his smoke dragons with water and crushing him with wood. Nurari afterward absorbed his body into a Casualty Puppet.
