Yūra

was a sleeper agent of Sasori. As a Sunagakure ninja, he served as a trusted member of the Kazekage advisory council of Suna for four years. He was also assigned to command the defense of Suna at the time Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage, was kidnapped. When Sasori lifted the jutsu that was blocking memories of him, Yura killed all the guards to allow Sasori's partner, Deidara, into the village. Yura was later used as a sacrifice for the Shapeshifting Technique, becoming a replica of Itachi Uchiha. This replica was defeated by Naruto with the Great Ball Rasengan.
