Hiruko (shinobi)


 * Seiyu: Yutaka Aoyama

was once a great shinobi of the Sand Village. However, once he died, he became one of Sasori's first human puppets and one of his favorites. As a puppet, he serves as Sasori's "puppet armor" as he can hide inside of him. Chiyo states that Hiruko has changed since she saw him 20 years ago and indicates to Sakura that he has increased his overall defense with the shell he has on his back as well as a new arm-type addition.
