Background / History
Noji was a capable Konoha jonin who had completed many missions. On one mission, he killed two enemy jonin despite being badly wounded. Before attaining his rank, he had kept a low profile; afterward, he became arrogant. Village officials knew of his misconduct—including bullying civilians—but had Anbu monitor him rather than remove him 16 18 21.
Assigned to maintain order at the Chunin Exams, Noji entered the arena when Takizawa Dan defeated his son, Nochi Yoshino, and left him unconscious. Noji accused Dan of using excessive force, even after Dan pointed out that Yoshino had threatened to kill him during their match 15 16. Their argument escalated into a fight. Noji attacked with lethal force, then unleashed a flood across the examination hall when Dan dodged his strike. Other ninja contained the flood and restrained him 17 19.
Tsunade stripped Noji of his status as a Konoha ninja and sentenced him to ten years of solitary confinement for interfering with the exam and attempting to kill Dan. Anbu took him away 20 21.
Appearance
Noji is a middle-aged man who wears a tactical vest 15.
Personality
Noji is fiercely protective of Yoshino but applies a different standard to his son's conduct than to Dan's: he demands restraint from Dan while excusing Yoshino's death threat as something said in the heat of the moment 16. He relies on his jonin status to command deference, and his confidence in that status collapses when Tsunade sentences him 18 21.
Abilities & Skills
Taijutsu
- His full-power kick tears into the examination-hall floor, leaving a deep crater and spreading cracks across it; Dan avoids the blow using Wind Style: Floating Catkin Jutsu 19.
- He previously killed two enemy jonin on a mission while heavily wounded 18.
Water Style: Great Waterfall Technique
- Creates a torrent large enough to threaten the examination hall. Noji uses it against Dan without protecting the other examinees; proctoring ninja block and evaporate the flood 19.
