Iwato

was a Yugakure shinobi.
== Background ==
Iwato and his comrades were on a mission to deliver a scroll of classified data while being guarded by Team Minato. While crossing the forest, they were attacked by their opponents, causing Team Minato to split up, leaving Rin Nohara and Kakashi Hatake with Yugakure shinobi. They take them to the bridge, but Shinbu was injured and fell off the cliff. Switching sides, Inagi and Babu revealed that they were traitors and mortally wounded Iwato by attacking him from behind. After a brief fight with Kakashi, during which Babu was injured, the traitors escaped. Iwato revealed that he knew about the traitors among their group, but he didn't know who they were. Therefore, they had two scrolls to deceive the traitor. The second scroll was held by Shinbu, followed by Babu, Inagi and the rest of their allies. Iwato died, and Obito Uchiha began the pursuit of the traitors, joined by his team-mates.
