Ibushi in Naruto

Very little is known about Ibushi’s past as his early years are still shrouded in mystery. Little is known about his lineage or background as he only appears in the game. He is just a part of the Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles 2 game and does not appear or receive any mentions in the Naruto series manga or anime, making him a non-canon character in the series.

The main objective of Ibushi and the Shirogane clan was to revive their most powerful weapon, the Master Puppet, which had the ability to destroy the Five Great Shinobi Countries. However, due to the weapon's self-awareness, the clan sealed it away and hid its spirit orbs in each nation. Ibushi and the other clan members were unaware of the true nature of the Master Puppet and attempted to resurrect it regardless in order to restore their clan's power. However, as Ibushi collected the Spirit Orbs, they began to possess him and the Master Puppet used him as a tool to locate the remaining orbs and achieve its own revival.

In the game, Ibushi's puppet attacked Naruto Uzumaki, Choji, and Kakashi in Konoha. Later, when Sakura was captured, he used her to gather chakra to revive the Master Puppet. Naruto exchanged places with Sakura to save her and managed to summon the Master Puppet, but Kakashi killed him with his Lightning Cutter. However, the Master Puppet took control of Naruto's body until Sakura used a genjutsu to free him. The Master Puppet initially proved to be invincible and even injured Kakashi, but Naruto's Rasengan disabled it, and it was ultimately destroyed by Naruto, Neji, and Shikamaru.

Ibushi had an unwavering determination to revive his clan and was willing to take extreme measures to achieve his goal. He had no qualms about sacrificing himself if it meant bringing his clan back to life.

Ibushi had a spread ponytail tied behind his back, with long white hair and a small white moustache and goatee. His face had visible wrinkles and black bags under his eyes, as a result of his advanced age. Like the other members of the Shirogane clan, he wore a purple onmyoji-like outfit with the clan symbol at the front. A dark red sash wrapped around his outfit held it together, and he carried a dark green scroll on his lower back. He wore faded purple pants tucked into bandages on his lower legs with shinobi sandals.

Like his fellow clan members, Ibushi excelled in Puppet Technique.
