Yoshito Kobayashi (美人小林, Japanese for "Nice Man Small Forest") is a jōnin hailing from Konohagakure. Yoshito served his village faithfully as jōnin up until the Fourth Shinobi World War, where he was assigned into the Fourth Division as a long range and support combatant. His skill and bravery helped him survive the war, after which he was selected to be part of the "Elite Triad", also known as the Hokage's Elite Guard. His affinity for Wind Release earned him the moniker of "The Hurricane".
