Chojuro

ChojuroName : Chojuro
Gender : Male
Occupation : Mizukage's Bodyguard
Affiliation : Kirigakure
Team : Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist
Jutsu : Hiramekarei Unleashing
Weapons : Hiramekarei

Chojuro is a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, wielder of a double-handled sword named Hiramekarei. He is one of two Kirigakure ninja selected to escort the Fifth Mizukage to the Kage summit. Despite his membership in the Seven Swordsmen, he is shy, and he seems to lack confidence in his abilities. He also appears to have a crush on the Fifth Mizukage, as he commented inwardly on wanting to protect her 'beautiful smile'. Chojuro has sharp, shark-like teeth, a trait that Zabuza Momochi, Kisame Hoshigaki, and Suigetsu Hozuki have; all of these characters are associated with the famed Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure. He wears black-rimmed glasses connected to what appear to be headphones. He also wears a striped shirt and camouflage pattern pants that resemble the clothing Zabuza wore during his first appearance. Also, he wears his forehead protector like a badge on his chest. He has his Hiramekarei on his back but wrapped around large bandages.

Abilities
Chojuro is a sword-user, and wields a dual-handled sword called the Hiramekarei, that is linked together at the handles by a chain. When it is unsealed from the bandages, it releases chakra that is shaped into an enormous hammer. He is shown to have enough strength to swing Hiramekarei in its hammer form, even sending an opponent flying a considerable distance through a wall. However, carrying the heavy sword for an extended amount of time does tire Chojuro out, similar to Suigetsu Hozuki.
