Kinoto

is a member of Konohagakure's Anbu faction Root.

Background
Shortly after the Third Great Shinobi War, Kinoto served as a bodyguard to Danzō Shimura during a meeting with Orochimaru after the latter had been passed over for the position for Hokage.

Later, he informed Danzō about Orochimaru's defection from Konoha. Three years later, Danzō requested Kinoto and Kinoe to retrieve a Sharingan from Kakashi Hatake in order for the latter to replace his own right eye, which was slowly losing its light.

Appearance
Kinoto has spiky black hair and black eyes. His face is generally concealed behind an Anbu mask which features red patterns across the surface. He wears the typical attire of the Anbu along with a tantō strapped to his shoulder.

Abilities
As an Anbu, Kinoto is presumably a considerably strong shinobi. He was seen to be very stealthy, able to stay hidden and out of sight from an experienced shinobi like Kakashi Hatake. He also wields a sword which indicates him being skilled in kenjutsu.
