Midori

Midori was a Chunin from Kusagakure. He and Tsuba were the personal guards of the Grass Daimyo during the Chunin Exams. They were assigned to make sure Gaara lost to Sasuke Uchiha, making their daimyo win a bet with the Waterfall Daimyo.

When he and Tsuba's threats were not responded by Gaara, Midori thought Gaara was too scared to speak. However, when Tsuba was brutally murdered by Gaara's Sand Waterfall Funeral, Midori tried to flee in terror, only to be dragged back down the corridor by the sand. Despite his screams for help and mercy, he was dragged back and crushed to death. Naruto Uzumaki and Shikamaru Nara, who were in the vicinity, saw Midori being dragged back and heard his last screams that echoed down the dark corridor. As Gaara was satisfied with killing the two Grass Chunins, Naruto and Shikamaru were spared from this gruesome fate.
