Third Kazekage

* Position: Rank::Kage
 * Age: Unknown (Deceased)
 * Special Technique: Iron Sand Techniques

The Third Kazekage was once the leader of Sunagakure. He had the unique ability to manipulate his chakra and convert it into magnetic forces allowing him to control Iron Sand. He created this technique after studying the current host of Shukaku at that time, and recreating it using his powers. It was for this very ability that he was noted as the strongest Kazekage in the entire history of Sunagakure. Under mysterious circumstances the Third Kazekage disappeared before a war broke out. When Sakura and Chiyo met up with Sasori during the Rescue Gaara arc Sasori revealed that he had taken the Third Kazekage's body and turned him into one of his Human Puppets.
