Atsui

was a shinobi from Kumogakure and brother of Samui. He was assigned to the First Division in the Fourth Great Shinobi World War.

Personality
In stark contrast to his sister, Atsui possessed a rather hot-headed and spirited attitude, which was evident even in the heat of battle. This impulsive temperament often resulted in serious repercussions, especially during confrontations, where he was likely to impetuously charge ahead others, leaving him entirely devoid of any support. He had a tendency of saying the word and admitted that he had created a substantial amount of "hot-shot" catchphrases.

Appearance
He had medium length light-colored hair, worn in an asymmetrical bowl cut style. His typical attire consisted of a sleeveless version of the standard Kumogakure uniform, along with the village's respective flak jacket. He also had bandages on his forearms, shin guards and the kanji for tattooed on his left shoulder.

Abilities
Like many other Kumogakure shinobi, Atsui was extremely proficient in the usage of swords, often incorporating a long white katana into his fighting style. When this blade was utilized in conjunction with his Fire Release techniques, through the application of Chakra Flow, he was capable of incinerating a significant quantity of opponents in a single instant.

Shinobi World War Arc
When Darui confronts the resurrected Kinkaku and Ginkaku, Atsui and his sister provide assistance. Attacked almost immediately by numerous White Zetsu, he incinerates the Zetsu before charging towards the opposing brothers. Both he and Samui were hit by the Kōkinjō, resulting in their souls being drawn from their bodies through their mouths. With their respective souls subsequently severed and absorbed, the siblings were placed under a combination curse and sealing technique, where if they utter the word they've used most in their lives, they'll be imprisoned for eternity. Although Samui advises that he not speak, Kinkaku's attack prompts Atsui to say "hot", sealing him permanently into Ginkaku's Crimson gourd.

Trivia
