Special Rank

Special Rank

There are several types of shinobi within this world that are unlime a majority of the others. These type of shinobi have either acquired special training from their villages or have taken a path that does not associate with any village at all.

• Hunters [Hunter-Nin]

Hunter-Nin are a special team , given the specific duty of hunting down missing-nin. They could be seen wearing standard armored ANBU uniform or, in some instances (such as Haku and Ao), a blue kimono with a striped, turtle-necked undershirt. They may also wear a mask with thin slitted eye-hole and a wavy design in place of the mouth, and their village symbol on the forehead. They kill their target, taking the head as proof, and then completely dispose of the body by using various methods, such as cremation or the summoning of wild carrion crows to devour the corpse. This is done in order to make sure the village secrets which a ninja's body holds

• ANBU

take orders directly from the Kage, performing special high-level missions, such as assassinations and torture. The ANBU usually work in teams formed to the requirements of the mission, ensuring maximum success. The shinobi in the ANBU are hand-picked by the Kage; chosen for their individual capabilities and special skills. Age, gender, background, or previous rank bear no weight in this decision. They wear their mask even in their own village, for their identity as an ANBU agent is to be known only by the Kage and village elders, The ANBU have no true weakness

• Missing Ninja [Missing-Nin]

Missing-Nin are ninja who left their village without the intention of returning, often because they have committed criminal acts or to pursue other personal gains. The ninja village that they are from will often try to track them down and eliminate them. Depending on the village leader's decisions, the missing-nin in question may be given leniency. The most prominent example is Sasuke Uchiha, who is not marked for death by the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, as a favor to Naruto Uzumaki, and is instead to be brought back as a Konohagakure citizen. However, according to Kakashi Hatake, a missing-nin is typically marked for death simply for defecting, and such mercy is rare.


ANBU and Hunter-Nin are specifically selected by the Kage

A classification of Special Shinobi that is one that unfortunately many shinobi become. There are a wide amount of shinobi that eventually grow tired of their village and strive for a larger picture in which they leave their village behind in order to seek out bigger and better things. From this point they become a missing-nin, in which they will be hunted down by hunter-nin. However, they are often on the move and hard to track down. They do not have any restrictions upon where they can go and once they are out of a certain jurisdiction specific hunter-nin can no longer track them unless the mission is given to them.
