He is the captain of the assassination squad from Sunagakure who were ordered to assassinate Gaara.
Appearance []
The captain wears what appears to be the standard attire for the Suna-nin albeit a sleeveless shirt and a mask that is reminiscent of an oni. Like the rest of his team, he wore black gloves and had his head wrapped in bandages.
Abilities []
Being appointed leader of a group of assasins sent to kill Gaara, it stands to reason that he is a very skilled shinobi.
Ninjutsu []
Like many Suna shinobi, he employs the use of puppets. He is able to combine Water Release with certain puppets to spew water at opponents trapped in chakra threads. This is effective against sandusers as it decreases the opponents ability to use sand. Since he carries a sword, it stands to reason that he is skilled in kenjutsu.
Part II []
Past Arc: The Locus of Konoha []
During a joint mission with Konoha, his squad was ordered to kill Gaara. Using his Puppet Water Release: Dance of Mystic Rain technique, he prevented Gaara from manipulating his sand. Gaara was saved by the arrival of Naruto Uzumaki and his team-mates, Yaoki and Korobi. The captain and his squad were defeated when Gaara used a non-lethal ball of sand to incapacitate almost every member of the assassination squad.
