Chiriku

Chikiru (Chi meaning Earth & Riku meaning Land) was one of the 12 Guard Ninjas of Fire, who once was hired to protect the Fire Country's Daimyou. When the group disbanded he became head monk at the Fire Temple, an elite monastery that is home to monks with special abilties. During his time with the 12 Guard Ninjas of Fire, some underground organisation put a 30 Million Ryo bounty on his head. He was later killed by Hidan and taken by Kakuzu, the bounty hunter of Akatsuki, to get the reward.
