Akatsuchi

is a large shinobi of Iwagakure and a bodyguard of the Tsuchikage.

Five Kage Summit arc
He was setting off with Kurotsuchi to escort the Tsuchikage to the Five Kage meeting, called for by the Raikage. When the Tsuchikage hurt his hips when trying to carry his bag by himself, Akatsuchi picked him up.

When the Raikage destroyed his table during the meeting, Akatsuchi was seen moving to attack in defense of his lord, but was soon dismissed by the Tsuchikage. When White Zetsu appears during the summit, Akatsuchi and Kurotsuchi guard the Onoki.
