Three Sand Siblings

The Sand Siblings consists of the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure's three children: Temari, Kankurō and Gaara. Having underwent the gruelling training of their village, these three are regarded as elite shinobi of their village that excel in long-range combat.

In Part I they took part in the Chūnin Exams in Konoha along with their jōnin commander Baki. Although meant to appear as prospective chūnin, they were actually waiting for the invasion of Konoha to begin. They were later sent to aid the Sasuke Retrieval Team as a sign of goodwill between the now allied nations after what happened during the would-be invasion attempt. Some time after the invasion of Konoha failed, its members were promoted to government positions in Sunagakure: Gaara became the Kazekage, while Temari and Kankurō were promoted to the rank of jōnin.

In Part II, Gaara as the Kazekage, vowed to protect the village that once hated him with Temari and Kankurō as his right hand. Later, Gaara along with Temari and Kankurō as his jōnin bodyguards, headed to the Five Kage Summit.
