The Demon Brothers (Gouzu and Meizu) are two Chunin Missing-nins from Kiragakure introduced for a very short time before the Zabuza saga, during the Mission to the Land of Waves arc. They attack Team 7 and Kakashi to kill Tazuna, but fail. Team 7 tie them both to a tree for them to be arrested and leave.

The Demon brothers are a paragon of coordination attacking.Their large metal gauntlets house a retractable shuriken chain running between the two of them, which they can use to bind an enemy and then slice them to pieces. In the event that the shuriken chain is neutralized, they also have a release mechanism, to free them up for individual attacks. They use the sharp, poisoned claws on their gauntlets to shred their foes. As Kirigakure Chunin, they are renowned for their fighting resolve.

The Demon Brothers are very popular with a lot of fans, even though they only appeared in one episode (Chapter 9&10).

At first they belonged to Kirigakure but fled, along with Zabuza Momochi and Haku. Later, they were hired by Zabuza to kill Tazuna, and when they failed, Zabuza went after Tazuna himself. Very little is known about them, which makes them very shadowed and vague characters.

Gozu wears the gauntlet on his right hand hidden by his cloak. Meizu wears his on his left hand.
