Nowaki Character Guide
Who Is Nowaki?
Nowaki was once the leader of the Lightning Group. At the time, he went by the name Fūshin. Fūshin was born on a poverty-stricken island in the Land of Water. As a child, he was ostracised for his kekkei genkai and was blamed for being responsible for a typhoon that destroyed his village.
Nowaki’s Role in Naruto
He was sold to a businessman named Kusabi, and endured torture and starvation by his owner. At the Coliseum, he fought against Chino but was defeated when he fell victim to her Ketsuryūgan genjutsu, causing him to pass into the ownership of En Oyashiro. Fūshin was initially hostile towards Chino for winning against him but they became close friends after bonding over their mutual loneliness of being mistreated for their abilities and having no families.
Personality, Abilities, and Story Impact
Fūshin also told Chino about his past, something he had never shared with anyone. Fūshin helped Chino, Karyū, and the rest of the En's collected children escape from his compound. Chino returned to her ancestral Valley of Hell while Fūshin and the others formed the Lightning Group.
