Shamon’s Background


Shamon went with the First Kazekage to a meeting with leaders from other ninja villages, where they talked about working together. When Reto, the previous Kazekage, was killed, Shamon took over and worked on making Suna's military stronger. He made puppets to replace some of the shinobi and found a way for shinobi to fight together.



Shamon also studied the Tailed Beasts to try to control one of them. Suna got a lot better under his leadership, but he was killed by assassins, which some people thought was because of a curse on the Kazekage family.


After Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha sealed Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo Otsutsuki summoned the deceased Kage, including Shamon, to help him and the Hokage in summoning Team 7, the tailed beasts, and Madara Uchiha from Kaguya's dimension. Eventually, Shamon and the other Kage's souls were sent back to the Pure Land.


Shamon’s Personality


Shamon was loyal to his village and wanted his village to be powerful. He was confident in his skills and decision.


Shamon’s Appearance


Shamon was a bald man with a patch of brown hair at the back of his head. He had a green dragon-shaped tattoo around the top of his head and a black claw covering his right eye. He wore a dark kimono with a light sash and a plain, long-sleeved haori. As he got older, he developed frown lines around his mouth.


Shamon’s Abilities


As the jinchuriki of Shukaku, Shamon had access to the beast's immense chakra and sand manipulation abilities. He was able to keep Shukaku under control without the need for extra restraints.


Not much is known about Shamon's abilities and skills, except that he used puppets in battles. However, being appointed as the Second Kazekage suggests that he was a powerful and skilled ninja. He was also knowledgeable and strategic, as he was the first one from Sunagakure to research the jinchuriki. Before becoming a Kage, he was skilled enough to accompany the First Kazekage to the Summit of the Kage.
