Tsume Inuzuka

is a Tokubetsu Jōnin-level kunoichi of Konohagakure, and a member of the Inuzuka clan. She is the mother of Hana and Kiba Inuzuka.

Personality
Like most members of the Inuzuka clan, Tsume is tough, but clearly cares deeply for her family. According to Kiba, she was responsible for scaring away his father.

Abilities
Tsume has the same abilities as the rest of the Inuzuka Clan. She fights with her beloved companion, Kuromaru. It is currently unknown exactly what power she possesses, but, since she is a Tokubetsu Jōnin, she is obviously an extremely skillful fighter. She can also use the Dual Piercing Fang, as well as many more combinations, with Kuromaru.

Part I
Tsume debuted during the invasion of Konoha, fighting alongside Hana to repel the attacking Sand ninja.

Part II
In the invasion of Pain, Tsume and Kiba confronted Pain's Preta Path with Dual Piercing Fang, but Pain managed to dodge by using the former Animal Path as a shield. She was later seen with Kiba following the destruction of Konoha.
