Background / History

Samui served Kumogakure faithfully for five years after becoming a Jōnin, becoming a trusted subordinate of the Fourth Raikage. Her father and brother were killed on the battlefield; her mother, Samlin, remained her only immediate family. 108 191

She and Darui led a Kumogakure infiltration team into the Land of Waves to contact the Uchiha clan. Acting as the Fourth Raikage's envoy, Samui proposed a joint assault on Konoha and explained the Land of Lightning's broader expansionist preparations. 25 26 27

Anbu forces ambushed her team shortly after the negotiations began. Samui killed two attackers with Wind Release but was overwhelmed in close combat and severely wounded; Mingyou rescued her and treated her injuries. 29 30

At the Land of Hot Springs, Samui warned Mingyou that the Fourth Raikage coveted the Uchiha Sharingan. She later learned that the Raikage had deliberately used her to approach Mingyou and intended to make her bear children to acquire Uchiha bloodline power. Horrified by both the scheme and the sacrifice of her teammates, she rejected the Raikage's plans. 31 36 37

Unable to return safely to the Land of Lightning, Samui chose to leave with Mingyou. When Darui and Kumogakure forces confronted them, she openly refused to return as a tool of the Raikage; Mingyou spared Darui and the other pursuers at her request. 45 46

Samui later settled alongside the Uchiha on their island compound and gradually became part of Mingyou's household. She remained troubled by her divided feelings toward her former homeland and secretly followed a Kirigakure unit to the battlefield out of concern for Mingyou. 48 50 81 106

Mingyou eventually fulfilled his promise to recover Samlin. Samui was reunited with her mother after learning that Samlin had been imprisoned and tortured for nearly a year by the Land of Lightning. 108 139 191

Appearance

Samui is a yellow-haired woman with a pretty face and a notably confident presence. During her initial infiltration of the Land of Waves, she wore a fishnet outfit beneath her ninja clothing. 25

• Straight yellow hair. 25
• Usually carries a ninja tool bag on her thigh. 30
• Her injuries during the Anbu ambush included cuts to her shoulder, back, abdomen, and waist. 29

Personality

Samui is intelligent, composed, and politically perceptive. As an envoy, she understands the fragile nature of alliances between major nations and accurately warns Mingyou that the Uchiha could again be forced to flee. 26 27

She can be playful and flirtatious, using teasing remarks to test Mingyou's composure, but she is not indifferent to the consequences of political schemes. 27 28 Her loyalty to the Fourth Raikage collapses when she learns she was treated as a disposable instrument in his plan to obtain Uchiha bloodline power. 37 46

Though initially suspicious after being rescued, Samui grows to trust Mingyou. She remains compassionate toward her former comrades, pleading for Darui and the Land of Lightning pursuers to be spared despite choosing Mingyou's side. 30 45 46
