Kagura Karatachi

is a shinobi of Kirigakure, who works as an aide to the Sixth Mizukage.

Background
Thirteen years after the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kagura was promoted to Chūnin. At some point, he was chosen as a successor for the new Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, where he would inherit Hiramekarei.

Personality
His goal is to make Kiri into a peaceful village. He is shown to be very friendly to others, even if they're from another village. He is happy to meet the visiting class from Konohagakure. Kagura is also a fan of Kagemasa to the point he owns extremely rare Kagemasa merchandise. He has some reservations about engaging in combat. Despite only sparring with wooden swords against Boruto, he was visibly distraught after disarming him, having to recompose himself before continuing his host duties.

Appearance
Kagura is a tall teenager. He has a fair complexion with short, messy, grey hair that falls over the right side of his face and spiked up on the left his forehead, pink eyes and a tattoo with three points running down under his left eye. He is very handsome as nearly all the Konoha Academy female students immediately swooned for him.

He wears black pants, a striped purple shirt, a green long-sleeved vest with high collars, and black gloves. He also wears a grey-strapped forehead protector under his bangs. He carries at his hip a katana with a square hollow hilt. Attached to the top of the scabbard is a Kagemasa key-chain shaped like the movie-star's signature visors.

Abilities
Despite his young age, Kagura is a genius shinobi, who's reputation is heard across the shinobi world. As such, Chōjūrō wants Kagura to succeed him as Mizukage, a position reserved only for the strongest shinobi of their village. His skills in kenjutsu allowed him to easily disarm Boruto Uzumaki, and is recognised to the point where he became a candidate to become one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

Field Trip Arc
When Shino Aburame's class comes to Kiri for a field trip, Kagura greets the foreigners and introduces himself as their guide for the day. Upon meeting Boruto, the two introduce themselves to each other. Guiding the class into the the village's port town, Kagura informs the students of the business conducted in the tourist destination.

Trivia
