Shiranami

is the boss of the Magaki group. He wants to steal the forbidden jutsu of the Tsuchigumo Clan.

Personality
So far, it is shown that he is rather calm and patient. He seems up-to-date on whereabouts and plans of Hotaru. Also, he views the forbidden jutsu highly, believing it only a nuisance to others.

Appearance
Shiranami has black hair and pronounced creases underneath his eyes, not unlike Itachi Uchiha. His eyes are green with no eyelashes. In addition, he is tall and well-muscled. His clothes include a high-collared blue cloak (with a leaf symbol different than Konoha's), a black top that ends mid-chest and dark casual pants.

Six-Tailed Beast arc
He first appears, albeit his face mostly hidden, giving his fellow Magaki orders to find Hotaru and the kinjutsu, saying it will make them wealthy.

After Hotaru's return to Tsuchigumo village, he is among the villagers who encircle her while the Tsuchigumo chief is talking to her.

Later, when Hotaru manages to escape Akaboshi and the other Magaki with the help of Utakata, Shiranami meets up with his comrades, with his face fully shown this time. After they report what happened, Shiranami hands over a Bingo Book on Missing-nin from Kirigakure, in which Utakata is listed. The bounty on his head is 50 million ryo. When asking Shiranami for further orders, he also wonders what to do.
