Araumi Funato

is a pirate who is the head of the Funato Clan.

Background
During his time leading the Funato clan, Araumi was known for his dangerous power over water. His efforts eventually took control of all other pirate groups, regularly attacking various islands and trade routes as well as performing abductions around the Land of Water. In recent years, an operation spearheaded by the Sixth Mizukage to apprehend Araumi was successful. He would spend the next five years in prison, far from the open sea and isolated from any source of water.

Appearance
Araumi is a tall, tanned-skinned man of massive, muscular built. His facial features are pronounced with a high cheekbones, a broad chin, and tear-troughs. He has a scar running down his right eye and an x-shaped scar across his abdomen. He also has icy blue eyes and straight, shoulder-length, strawberry blond hair with a full beard and broad moustache. During his long incarceration, void of proper water, he appeared withered and emaciated.

He dresses in a long red vest with a white shirt, grey pants, and studded wristbands. He styles his hair in a high ponytail and wears a grey bandanna.

Personality
Araumi is shown to be a ruthless man, shamelessly pillaging the seas of the Land of Water for years and just as indifferently killing people. He is shown to have a very confident and go-with-the-flow nature, not letting small setbacks affect him.

Abilities
Araumi has vast Water Release capabilities, with Kagura Karatachi stating he cannot be allowed any access to water. He's able to absorb all moisture from a person's body, reducing them to a withered husk and revitalising himself in the process.

Great Sea Battle of Kirigakure Arc
When Kagura showed Boruto Uzumaki around the prison, the village was put on high-alert as a terrorist attack caused airships to crash. This was in fact a diversion by Araumi's clan to rescue him. His son, Isari, and his team snuck into the prison and freed him. There, Araumi absorbed one of the guard's moisture to revitalise himself. He escaped the prison to rejoin his clan, who used the chaos to take over many Land of Water islands.

Upon return to his base, Araumi heartily enjoyed a feast with his children. As Tenma arrived to join in, he reluctantly revealed that his fortress ship was destroyed by a team of Kiri and Konoha-nin, along with the ship's Chakra Cannon. Araumi insisted that it was fine at this point, convinced that he would win this war.
