Life of Shibuki

Shibuki was born as the son of Hisen, who used to be the leader of their village. When Shibuki was very young, their village, Takigakure, was attacked by outsiders. Sadly, during this battle, Shibuki's father died after drinking the Hero Water to defend the village.

Later on, Shibuki received training from a man named Suien, but Suien eventually left the village. As the new leader of the village, Shibuki took good care of a girl named Fu and taught her the importance of friendship and loyalty.

One day, when Team 7 was protecting Shibuki, a bird startled him, and he hid behind Sakura Haruno. Even though he could be a bit timid, everyone in the village considered him a hero, especially the children.

Things got complicated when Suien returned and attacked their village. Shibuki had to make a tough choice: protect the Hero Water, which was important to their village, or save his villagers. Naruto Uzumaki convinced him that a hero is someone willing to sacrifice for those they care about, just like Shibuki's father had done.

Shibuki decided to drink the Hero Water to try and defeat Suien, but it didn't work out. Thankfully, with the help of Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha, they managed to stop Suien. Usually, drinking the Hero Water is deadly, but Shibuki survived and became an even better leader for his people.
