Hideaki Kazamidori (風見鶏 火出会木, Kazamidori Hideaki) is a young, but talented Tokubetsu Jōnin hailing from Konohagakure. Having been interested in the art of kenjutsu from a very young age, Hideaki was taught under various figures in order to enhance his own swordsmanship prowess. Due to this, as well as his stark red hair - compared to an Uzumaki's - he is known as Scarlet Leaf's Blade (朱葉の剣, Akeba no Ken).
