Genma Squad and Dodai

In Naruto chapter 515, all the important ninjas who appeared before have been resurrected. During this time, Jiraiya was not resurrected, which led to speculation that Jiraiya was not dead. However, in the latest chapter 520, Kabuto, who possesses the secret technique of Edo Tensei, revealed that the reason Jiraiya could not be resurrected is because his Jiraiya was submerged in water. Due to the water pressure, they were unable to obtain Jiraiya DNA, so they could not resurrect Jiraiya. Similarly, Shisui Uchiha, whose body could not be found, could not be summoned.

The most serious injuries he suffered: 1. For peeping into the women's bathhouse, he was struck by Tsunade, who broke six of his ribs and fractured both of his wrists.

2. During his training with Naruto was severely injured by Naruto, who had manifested four tails. (As revealed in the Naruto Naruto: Shippuden Special, Jiraiya possessed the key that Minato Namikaze used to Nine-Tails' Yang-attribute chakra with the Four Symbols Seal. He used the key to weaken the effect of Naruto's Four Symbols Seal, which is why the Nine-Tails' chakra leaked out and formed the Demon Fox Cloak to attack Jiraiya.)

Characteristics: He wears a headband with the character for "oil" on it, has white hair styled like a kabuki actor, has a red mark under his eyes that grows with age, wears wooden clogs, and always carries a large scroll across his back during important events.

In order to teleport the Fifth Mizukage to the battlefield where Edo Tensei Madara was located, Shikaku suggested that Genma Squad use the Flying Thunder Formation Technique. Shikaku summoned Genma Squad to the Allied Shinobi Forces headquarters and ordered the three of them to mark Tsunade. Then, Tsunade and the Raikage arrived at Madara's battlefield using Mabui's Heavenly Transfer Technique. The three members of Genma Squad formed a formation to surround the target and quickly transported the Fifth Mizukage along with the three members of Genma Squad to Madara's battlefield using the marks they had made on Tsunade.

Part-time: Author, best known for his novel *The Legend of the Tale of the Gutsy Shinobi *. This book played a crucial role in shaping the worldview and values of several disciples, profoundly influencing the growth of the protagonist Naruto and his other disciples. Naruto's name also originates from this book. He is also the author of * Make-Out Paradise * and * Make-Out Violence * (not suitable for children). Jiraiya published *Make- Make-Out Paradise * at the age of 42, and Kakashi's 18th birthday present. Jiraiya the age of 50, due to the immense popularity of * Make-Out Paradise *, Jiraiya published its sequel, * Make-Out Violence *. Even at the age of 26, Kakashi still believed that the Make-Out Violence series was a favorite among men, especially Kakashi teacher.

Shimura Danzo was a veteran of Konoha Village who remained out of the public eye for a long time after failing to become Naruto. He had a deep bond with Hiruzen Sarutobi (the Third Naruto), and the two were both rivals and friends, often competing against each other.

In the First Shinobi World War, the Kumogakure made a desperate gamble, sending over a thousand ninjas to invade Konoha. The Second Naruto Tobirama, led the village's elite ninjas to stop the Cloud Ninja's invasion, protecting the village and bringing victory to Konoha, resulting in a defeat for the Hidden Cloud Village.

However, as the war was drawing to a close, a division arose within Kumogakure. The Second Raikage wanted to end the war, but his subordinates did not. Among the ninjas, the powerful Kinkaku Ginkaku were unwilling to accept a crushing defeat and wanted to maintain the state of war. Therefore, during the alliance ceremony between the Raikage and the Naruto, Kinkaku Ginkaku staged a coup. Using the power of the Six Paths Ninja Tools and the Nine-Tails' chakra, the two inflicted near-fatal injuries on the Second Raikage and the Second Naruto.

This resulted in the Raikage's immediate death. Tobirama then led his Tobirama to break through the encirclement, but Kinkaku Ginkaku pursued them relentlessly. To preserve Konoha's future generations, Tobirama. However, even in this critical moment, the meticulous Danzō secretly tested his subordinates to choose the right successor. Danzo hesitated due to cowardice, while Hiruzen Sarutobi demonstrated his determination to sacrifice his life for the village. Based on this, Tobirama entrusted the Naruto position to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Later, the Second Naruto, Tobirama, single-handedly confronted Kinkaku and Ginkaku, who could freely manipulate the five great ninja tools of the Sage of Six Paths, whose power surpassed that of the Five Kage, and who possessed the Nine-Tails 'Kinkaku Ginkaku. After a great battle, the Second Naruto, Tobirama, exhausted himself and sacrificed himself to buy time for his subordinates to escape.

During the Tenchi Bridge mission, he planted Sai in Team 7 to carry out a secret mission. He had Sai feign surrender to Orochimaru's side to facilitate their operations. Sai was secretly commissioned by Danzō to secretly meet with Orochimaru and betray Konoha, but he later learned that he was ordered by Danzō to kill Sasuke, who would become Orochimaru's new body, to eliminate the threat to Konoha. He originally had no name, but because this mission was related to Sasuke, he was given the name "Sai." After the mission failed, upon learning that Sai had not followed his orders, he said, "Feelings breed hatred, and hatred leads to war."

Furthermore, Obito Uchiha and Sasuke mentioned that Itachi joined Akatsuki after being ordered by Danzo to exterminate his Danzō. He intended to seize the position of Naruto of Konoha and colluded with enemy ninja organizations, betraying Konoha's intelligence in exchange for support. He even betrayed information about Konoha's ANBU to Orochimaru. Shikaku Nara was tasked with taking command of the Allied Shinobi Forces headquarters by the Raikage and the Fifth Naruto before leaving to stop Naruto and Bee from reaching the front lines. Shikaku accepted the mission in this critical situation.

In chapter 446, Nagato's flashback reveals that Danzō and Hanzo conspired to force Yahiko to his death!

In chapter 450, taking advantage of the Fifth Naruto's coma and the turmoil in Konoha, Danzo delivered a passionate speech at a cabinet meeting, briefly securing his appointment as the Sixth Naruto by the Land of Fire Daimyo. However, this decision was not voted on by the village's high-ranking officials, and the Land of Fire Daimyo's decision was suspected of being influenced by Danzō's genjutsu. Therefore, Naruto's path to Danzō remains fraught with difficulties.

The latest developments in the manga indicate that Danzō has been officially removed from the Naruto position by Konoha, meaning he is only Naruto Danzō. The position remains with Tsunade Fifth Naruto, Naruto. Furthermore, the Naruto portraits carved on the walls of Konoha do not include the portrait of the Sixth Naruto, suggesting that a formal Sixth Naruto has not yet been appointed.

Shikaku Nara, a Jonin of Konoha in the Land of Fire, is Shikamaru Nara's father and the captain of the Konoha Jonin team. In his youth, he was a member of the previous "Ino–Shika–Chō" trio along with Inoichi Yamanaka and Chōza Akimichi. He possesses strategic thinking and judgment superior to Shikamaru and has a very high IQ.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Shikaku succeeded the Fourth Raikage as the commander of the Allied Shinobi Forces. After the Ten-Tails was resurrected, the Allied Shinobi Forces headquarters was hit by the Ten-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball, and all the shinobi in the headquarters except for Ao gloriously died in the line of duty.

The Nara Clan, known as the Ino–Shika–Chō, primarily raised deer, providing medicinal herbs for the development of Medical Ninjutsu. They possessed profound knowledge of medicine and could act as traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in critical situations. The Nara Clan was famous for its high-quality deer antlers, hence their nickname "Deer." Dan Kato was a meticulous strategist with a strong sense of justice. He aspired to become Naruto for the sake of those around him, for Konoha, and for peace. He was severely wounded in the war and ultimately died. Like Tsunade, he lost loved ones in the war. His niece, Shizune, later became Tsunade's apprentice.

This clan is primarily supportive; members of the Nara Clan are generally highly intelligent and typically serve as strategists within a group. Nara Clan ninjas are permitted to participate in political affairs in the Land of Fire because they are always the first to devise the best strategies.

The Nara Clan's Shadow Technique is a secret family technique passed down through generations of Yin Release practitioners. This technique itself is a ninjutsu that requires high intelligence to fully utilize. The premise of the Shadow Technique is that the surface area of the shadow remains constant, and its main function is to bind and control the enemy. Although its functions may seem limited, by combining the deformation of the shadow and changes in light sources with agile thinking, the Shadow Technique can achieve a myriad of effects.

The secret techniques are Shadow Neck Binding Technique (Shadow Strangulation Technique), which transforms a shadow into a hand to strangle an enemy; Shadow Sewing Technique, which gives a shadow volume, allowing it to perform more movements. In particular, a moving shadow possesses penetrating power, capable of stabbing enemies and significantly restricting their movement. It is still remarkably effective even against those with large chakra reserves or those whose vital points cannot be struck (Tailed Beasts and Perfect Humans).

Dan Kato was a Jonin of Konoha, Tsunade's lover in her youth, and one of the most important people to Tsunade. He had a younger sister, who unfortunately died in the war.

(Excluding column force)

Shikaku often says that "women become gentle in front of the men they love most," but in reality, he is a henpecked husband, terrified of her, and always obeys her every command. He also greatly admires and adores women like Tsunade who possess both strength and beauty.

● Shadow Sewing Technique: Black Higanbana: Binds multiple enemies simultaneously with its shadow, centered on itself. From above, it resembles a black spider lily, hence the name "Black Higanbana". [2]

● Shadow Imitation Technique: This technique deforms one's shadow to overlap with that of the opponent, thereby restricting their movements. The area of the shadow is fixed, but advanced users can increase the capacity of their shadow.

● Shadow Strangulation Technique: A secret ninjutsu of the Nara Clan, it is an advanced version of the Shadow Imitation Technique. After grabbing the opponent with the Shadow Imitation Technique, the extended shadow is used to strangle the opponent's neck.

She was very strict in disciplining her husband and son, so both Shikaku and Shikamaru held her in awe.

Shikamaru Nara possesses outstanding strategic skills, a calm and adaptable mind, and an IQ exceeding 200. His signature move is the "Shadow Imitation Technique." Compared to the hot-blooded or cool types, his personality is somewhat passive, but he desires a peaceful life.

Shikadai Nara's grandson inherited his father's aversion to trouble and his mother's competitive spirit.

Teammate Shikaku and Ino Yamanaka's father Inoichi Yamanaka, Choji Akimichi's father Chōza Akimichi, form the Ino-Shika- Ino–Shika–Chō. As his name suggests, he belongs to the Nara Clan and is also responsible for raising reindeer. He possesses secret medicinal herbs that can counteract the damage caused by the Akimichi Clan's "Three-Colored Pills." Thanks to these herbs, the physical damage caused by Choji Akimichi taking the "Three-Colored Pills" was also healed.

Furthermore, their children, Choji Akimichi, Shikamaru Nara, Ino Yamanaka, form the new generation of the Ino–Shika–Chō.

Inoichi Yamanaka was once known as one of the "Ino-Shika-Cho Trio" along with Shikaku Nara and Chōza Akimichi. In addition to being skilled in mind control ninjutsu, he also possessed the ability to read other people's minds and obtain information. He was humble, but was an idol to many intelligence ninjas in the Shinobi World.

Chōza Akimichi is one of the members of the Ino- Ino-Shika-Cho Trio, representing the butterfly. His ability is to multiply any part of his body. Beneath his clumsy appearance lies the delicate gentleness unique to the Akimichi Clan, and he loves his son, Choji Akimichi, very much.

After the start of the Konoha Crush, Shikaku Nara used his clan's secret technique Shadow Neck Binding Technique, to kill several Sunagakure Village Jonin. He fought alongside Chōza Akimichi and Inoichi Yamanaka in the defense of Konoha and attended the Third Naruto's funeral.

After the Legendary Sannin's battle against Shikaku Nara Tsunade to the village and went to visit Shikamaru uniform. She gave Shikamaru a very profound lesson on how to deal with troublesome women (although Shikamaru didn't understand at all).

At the Valley of the End, he discussed life and his understanding of women with Shikamaru. After rescuing Choji Akimichi, he identified Choji's symptoms as caused by the Three-Colored Pills. He provided the Naruto with detailed information on medicinal materials and enough deer antlers to revive the near-death Choji and helped Shikamaru regain his confidence as a strategist.

In chapter 450, it is learned from the ANBU that Shikaku Nara is the leader of the Jonin team. Because Tsunade was unconscious during Pain's invasion, the Land of Fire Daimyo decided to elect a new Naruto. Shikaku, along with Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, and the white-clad ANBU captain, attended the Naruto. Just as Kakashi was about to be elected as the new Naruto, Tsunade woke up. Afterwards, Shikaku accompanied the newly awakened Fifth Naruto, Tsunade, to the Five Kage Summit. Tsunade has always greatly admired Shikaku and given him important responsibilities.

To protect the three, he was prepared to die and opened the "Eight Gates Formation" to fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, allowing Guy and the other two to take the opportunity to retreat.

After a fierce battle, Might Guy was ultimately killed. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen also suffered heavy casualties. Jūzō Biwa, Fuguki Suikazan, Raiga Kurosuki were the only three who managed to escape, while the other four perished in the battle. Thus, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen became the Trio.

After reaching adulthood, he served as one of the Fourth Hokage Naruto's bodyguards and was deeply trusted by the Naruto. He also served as the chief examiner for the third round of the Chunin Exams.

When Konoha collapsed, the venue was in chaos. Genma calmly analyzed the situation and fought against Sunagakure Maki Baki.

When pursuing the Sound Four Sound Ninja Sound Four leadership of Jonin Shizune, Genma took the lead in tracking them down and teamed Raido Namiashi Sound Four to fight Sound Four.

Hayate Gekko is a special ANBU from Konoha in the Land of Fire. He was a former member of the Naruto's direct ANBU unit. He has severe dark circles under his eyes, a pale complexion, and coughs frequently. He is skilled in Konoha Style Swordsmanship and is also the lover of ANBU member Yugao Uzuki.

He was discovered while on a reconnaissance mission overhearing Kabuto Yakushi and Maki discussing an attack on Konoha, and was ultimately killed by Maki.

In the original TV storyline of the Fourth Shinobi World War, she was summoned back by Kabuto Yakushi using the Edo Tensei, regaining her memories and consciousness, but her actions were still controlled, forcing her to fight against her lover, Yugao Uzuki. At the last moment, she deliberately collapsed due to her strong will, and was ultimately sealed away.

A special Jonin of Konoha in the Land of Fire, and a former member of the Naruto's direct ANBU, he is skilled in Konoha Style Swordsmanship and is also the lover of Yugao Uzuki. Although he always has large dark circles under his eyes and often coughs like a patient, he remains an elite ninja of Konoha. In the brutal Chunin Exams, Hayate Gekko served as the referee for the third round. This was due to his fair and impartial character, his ability to make appropriate judgments, and his composure under any circumstances. He has protected the lives of many examinees with his agile skills. In battle, although he has no desire to fight, the young man unleashes the ultimate technique of Konoha Style Swordsmanship — the Threefold Moon Dance. This technique uses three clones to launch a surprise attack on the target simultaneously, while his main body observes the enemy's blind spot and delivers a fatal blow—an unavoidable Inazuma attack!

He has long brown hair, wears a ninja hat, a black bodysuit, and a green vest. He has severe dark circles under his eyes, a pale complexion, and coughs frequently.

Konoha Style Swordsmanship: Threefold Moon Dance

The Threefold Moon Dance is Hayate Gekko's signature move.

First, use the Shadow Clone Technique to summon two Shadow Clones. Then, the clones and the main body quickly teleport to the enemy's front and attack the enemy's vital points from the left, top, and right.

Before his death, Hayate used this technique to strike Maki's shoulder, but due to Maki's special ability, the blow couldn't penetrate. In the end, Maki was killed by Maki 'Wind Blade.

Secret Sword: Moon Shadow

In the anime's original storyline, this is a technique used by the Edo Tensei Hayate Gekko during the Fourth Shinobi World War. When this technique is activated, the instantaneous movement creates several moving afterimages, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. With a flash of sword light, the enemy can be instantly killed.

It can conceal one's presence, making it useful for scouting enemies.

Shadow Clone Technique

Rank B, developed by the Second Naruto, uses chakra to create physical clones.

After the clones are deactivated, their memories and experiences return to the main body.

Body Flicker Technique

The speed is too fast for the naked eye to follow; to ordinary people, it looks as if the user has suddenly Spatial Transfer. The amount of chakra varies depending on the distance and altitude of the movement.

Hayate Gekko once joined the Naruto's direct ANBU alongside Yugao Uzuki.

Chunin Exams

Battle against Maki

Before his death, while on a reconnaissance mission, he overheard Kabuto Yakushi and Maki discussing an attack on Konoha.

In the end, he was killed by Maki with Wind Blade.

Shinobi World War

Edo Tensei: Hayate Gekko

In the original TV storyline of the Fourth Shinobi World War, she was resurrected by Kabuto Yakushi using the Edo Tensei, regaining her memories and consciousness, but her actions were still controlled, and she was forced to fight against her lover, Yugao Uzuki.

At the last moment, he was controlled by Kabuto and drew his sword to rush towards Yugao. However, with his last remaining will, he deflected the blade and stabbed it into a tree trunk next to Yugao. He deliberately let himself be pierced by Yugao's sword and fell down. Whether in life or in death, he tried his best to fulfill his vow to his lover - "We will protect each other forever". After the battle, Hayate expressed his apology to Yugao and was sealed away.

A special Jonin of Konoha in the Land of Fire, she has a carefree, playful, and impulsive personality, and a sweet tooth. She was Orochimaru's student in her youth, and after Orochimaru betrayed Konoha, she was frequently troubled by their teacher-student relationship. She bears the Heaven Cursed Seal left by Orochimaru.

The second examiner of the Chunin Exams, whose usually cheerful expression sometimes reveals a sinister smile that evokes the shadow of death.

Anko is Orochimaru's disciple and a formidable opponent who unleashed the Curse Mark, which has since been sealed by the Third Naruto. During her confrontation with Orochimaru, who had infiltrated Konoha, she attempted to use a ninjutsu taught by Orochimaru to perish together with him, willing to sacrifice her life to protect Konoha village. With her sweet smile and the sight of Orochimaru -soaked Anko, Anko is a fearsome figure, arguably the most dangerous female ninja in Konoha.

Anko loves glutinous rice balls and Anko paste. When eating desserts, it has to be thoroughly sweet, and it's best to eat the rice balls with Anko.

Anko Mitarashi's surname is pronounced "Shigeki," which is different from the usual pronunciation of "Mitarashi" as a surname. There is a traditional Japan sweet called "mitarashi dango," which comes in a string of five and is very similar to the dumplings that Anko often eats (nowadays, due to mass production, it comes in strings of four). Its origin is in Kyoto's Shimogamo Shrine (a special sweet made for the Aoi Festival or Mitarashi Festival).

Anko was once Orochimaru's disciple. She went on missions with Orochimaru when she was 12 years old. However, because Orochimaru was planning to betray Konoha and did not want Konoha to know anything about him, he used a forbidden technique on Anko to make her forget that they had gone on missions together.

However, one time when Anko and Naruto were on a mission and revisited the same place, it triggered a memory: just as Orochimaru was about to leave, Anko, who was a test subject for the Curse Mark, mustered her strength and grabbed Orochimaru's leg. Orochimaru asked Anko if she wanted to come along, Anko resolutely refused.

Chunin Exams, Anko served as the chief examiner for the second round. [1] Shortly after the exam began, the Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane, discovered a group of dead Grass Ninja outside the Forest of Death. Their faces were completely melted by forbidden techniques. Anko immediately judged that this was Orochimaru's technique, so she immediately instructed Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane to notify the ANBU, and went to the Forest of Death alone.

Anko successfully found Orochimaru and immediately engaged him in battle. After capturing Orochimaru, she decisively bound her left hand to Orochimaru's right hand with kunai, then formed a hand seal with her right hand and Orochimaru's left hand to Twin Snakes Mutual Death. However, what she captured was a clone of Orochimaru. The real Orochimaru told Anko, "If you dare to disturb my enjoyment, I will destroy this village." Anko was spared for the second time.

During her mission in the Land of Sea, Anko recalls fragmented memories of the Curse Mark. She helped out at Orochimaru's secret research facility on Demon Island of the Land of Sea, where she saw a girl named Uo whose body had been transformed into a fish. One day, Orochimaru and his subordinate Amachi took her to a room and placed the Heaven Cursed Seal on her, causing her immense pain.

Yet she became the first person to survive being placed under the Heaven Cursed Seal. According to Orochimaru, Anko's personality wasn't suited to be his subordinate; she lacked ambition, which is why he didn't take her with him when he rebelled. Orochimaru didn't want the village to know anything about him, so he used a forbidden technique to erase some of Anko's memories.

After being brought back to Konoha by the ANBU, Anko underwent various tests but still couldn't recall the events that occurred while she was working with Orochimaru. She only remembered the events on Demon Island Land of Sea being sent by Tsunade Amachi investigate. She then informed Land of Sea, Naruto, Ino Yamanaka Shino Aburame. All of Anko 'Amachi research facilities had been destroyed, and Orochimaru Konoha with Orochimaru Sasuke, had disappeared.
