Raidou is a Tokubetsu Jonin who specializes in close-combat swordplay and assassination. He uses the Kokuto, a blade coated in poison.
Raidou is also one of the Hokage's personal bodyguards; his first appearance is in the Third Hokage's box, acting as his bodyguard. He's taken out by Orochimaru before he can protect him, however.
In Shippuuden, Raidou is part of the team that backs up Asuma against Hidan and Kakuzu. He works together with Aoba to disrupt Kakuzu, allowing the others to escape.
