The Third Kazekage is considered to be the strongest Kazekage in the history of Sunagakure. He was kidnapped by an unknown enemy, but was never found due to the outbreak of war that forced the village to end their search. His body was never found, either, so he was presumed dead. Sasori turned out to be his killer, and had converted the Third's body into his strongest puppet, which he used against Chiyo and Sakura Haruno.

The Third had a special genetic trait that allowed him to turn the chakra he molded into Magnetic fields. This ability allowed him to create his iron sand, based on the jutsu used by the previous host of One-Tailed Shukaku. It is unknown if this was a kekkei genkai ability or wholly unique to the Third, similar to the First Hokage's ability to perform Mokuton techniques.

The Fourth Kazekage was the previous leader of Sunagakure. He is the father of Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro, and husband of Karura. By his design, the One-Tailed Shukaku was sealed within Gaara so that he could become the village's ultimate weapon. However, as Gaara grew and his abilities began to manifest, the Fourth realized that this had been a poor choice and started to view Gaara as a failed experiment who was a threat to the inhabitants of Sunagakure. In time, the Fourth began issuing orders for Gaara's assassination, none of which were ever successful.

The Fourth was also the one to join with Orochimaru in his attack on Konoha, hoping to teach the daimyo a lesson and to re-establish the Sunagakure's military force. Things, however, did not go as planned for him; just before the Chunin exam's third stage, where his attack was planned to take place, he was betrayed and impaled by his ally, Orochimaru, who stole his identity. Ironically, the son whose life he made miserable, Gaara, becomes the new Kazekage in his place.
