Description
Raidou Namiashi is a Tokubetsu Jounin-level shinobi of Konohagakure who serves as an elite bodyguard to the Hokage.

From what has been seen of him, he is a calm and collected person even during battle. He is also described as strict and methodical in his actions.

Despite the handful of fights he has been in, Raidou has yet to be seen in extended combat. Given his status as a guard for the Hokage and that the Sound Four needed to activate the second stage of their cursed seals in order to defeat him and Genma, it is likely that he is a formidable fighter. It was shown that when Hidan and Kakuzu attempted to kill Kotetsu and Izumo, Raidou successfully attacked and fended off Kakuzu with a unique sword called "Kokutou", which resembles a katana with a darkened, non-reflective surface.
Raidou has also shown some aptitude with Space–Time Ninjutsu as he is able to use the Flying Thunder God Technique which was taught to him by the Fourth Hokage due to their being part of the Hokage Guard Platoon. However, unlike Minato, Raidou has to use this technique in conjunction with Genma and another shinobi.
