Teru

is an underling of Aniki.

Background
Some time ago, Teru, like Oppo, failed to pass the exams at the academy and become a genin. They went to different jobs, but each time they were fired, and in the end, when they had absolutely nothing to eat, the guys joined Aniki.

Personality
Teru is a rather weak mentally person who joined a stronger one and decided to kidnap the girl only because of life's failures and lack of money. Already after the abduction, he regretted what he had done, but was especially frightened when he found out that one of the abducted girls was the daughter of the Hokage. When Himawari promised that they would not be executed, Teru breathed a sigh of relief, and after they were arrested, he completely repented of his act, deciding to start life from scratch after atonement for sins. He apparently regrets that he was unable to graduate from the academy in the past, calling himself a failure. Teru can be very short-tempered and even rush at a friend with the intent to hit. Due to his naivety, he tells everything that he is asked, even if it is a person whom he met for the first time.

Appearance
Teru is a short guy with black eyes, very sparse eyebrows, and dark Mohawk hair. He wears a one-piece black sleeveless jumpsuit and a yellow vest. Teru also wears black gloves, elbow pads, and sandals.

Abilities
Teru apparently couldn't master even elementary shinobi techniques as he failed his academy exams. However, he showed decent strength and speed when, along with Oppo, he kidnapped Himawari and Osuka, being able to capture the girls very quickly and unnoticed. But in doing so, he also fell for a simple trick with his legs tied, and was knocked out with a simple blow to the head from Aniki.

Kawaki & Himawari Academy Arc
Teru and Oppo first appear when they are sitting in a tree watching Osuka Kamakura. Soon they kidnap her, and Himawari Uzumaki with her. Arriving at the warehouse that was their base, Teru and Oppo tie up the girls and wait for their leader, Aniki, who later comes and beats them up due to Himawari not being the target of the kidnapping. They also tell Himawari about Aniki and their past, fearing they will be executed because of the kidnapping of the Hokage's daughter. Himawari reassures them that her father wouldn't do that, and they fall asleep at nightfall. Freed, Himawari and Ōsuka bind Oppo and Teru's legs, preventing them from helping Aniki in his fight against Kawaki. Later, they are arrested and the failed kidnappers repent of their deeds, promising to start life anew after serving their sentence.
