Iwaji

Iwaji ( 岩次 ) is a shinobi from Iwagakure and along with his siblings made up the Three Brothers group.

## Personality [ ]

Iwaji seems to be a relentless and cruel person. He also seems to be easily irritated and quick to action as seen when his brother had to stop him from rushing after Kosuke Maruboshi .

## Appearance [ ]

He is, unlike his two brothers, both tall and slender, with pronounced cheekbones, a prominent chin, and a narrow face. He does however have the same shaven head and wears bandages around his arms like his siblings. His attire also mirrors his siblings as he wears the standard Iwa-nin flak jacket with no shirt underneath, the standard pants with lapel, and sandals. Unlike them, however, he dons his forehead protector in a bandanna style.

## Abilities [ ]

Though much has not been seen of his abilities he seemingly preferred close-range combat and was adept at taijutsu . Iwaji was a fast individual, and it often appeared that he was skating on the ground rather than simply running on it.
