History
On Shibuki's orders, Kegon and Yoro hid their jonin rank to shadow and protect Fu at the Chunin Exams in Konoha. During the written test the team was split into separate rooms, and they advanced by leaving the bonus question unanswered, then reached Sunagakure first in the qualifying race. At one checkpoint the pair even locked Fu in her room to keep her out of trouble, though she slipped away regardless. In the Demon Desert phase, Fu kept running off to help others, exasperating Kegon and Yoro, until they found her and the Kazekage having their tailed beasts extracted by the Suna-nin Hoichi. When Team Guy arrived offering genuine aid, Kegon and Yoro joined the attack on Hoichi as a distraction so Neji could free the pair. After the exams, Akatsuki's Kakuzu and Hidan tracked the team down to capture Fu, and whether Kegon survived that encounter is unknown.
