Kazemori Masaki read through the Flying Combat Unit's personnel roster. Everyone on it was a wind-affinity ninja. Such ninja were relatively rare in Konoha Ninja Village, but however rare they were, their numbers would still grow as the village's personnel expanded. For ninja, who primarily fought in small squads, there were more than enough.

Masaki spotted quite a few familiar names on the list, including Hiruzen Sarutobi's eldest son, Shinsuke Sarutobi—the father of Konohamaru in the original timeline. Little information about him had been given in the original story, aside from his being the Anbu Captain serving at Hiruzen's side. Like Asuma Sarutobi, he had inherited a talent for Wind Release in addition to Fire Release.

There was also Shimura Danzō's daughter, Yukina Shimura. Her circumstances differed from those of the Sarutobi Clan. Shinsuke Sarutobi probably owed his wind affinity to his father's possession of all five chakra natures, whereas her family, like the Kazemori Clan, was a thoroughly traditional Wind Release clan.

Although the Shimura Clan had few members, it fell only a little short in terms of strength. If not for its population, it could have ranked alongside the Senju, Uchiha, Hyuga, and Sarutobi as one of the powerful ninja clans of the Warring States Period.

Honestly, Masaki had been astonished to learn that Danzō had married and had a daughter. The original story had never mentioned any descendants of his, and Danzō hardly gave the impression of being a man who would marry.

Considering the changes in Danzō's position in this timeline, Masaki wondered whether his own influence had played a part. But that was not necessarily the case. Perhaps Danzō had also had a wife and daughter in the original timeline, and they had simply never appeared because they were unremarkable in strength or had died
