Tsuchigumo Clan is a clan belonging to the Tsuchigumo Village. En no Gyoja, its leader at the time, developed a technique that was powerful enough to wipe out an entire village at a time. The technique is referred to as, Tsuchigumo Style: Forbidden Life Technique Release: Creation of Heaven and Earth.

During the Third Great Ninja War, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage of the Hidden Leaf, and En no Gyojo, leader of the Tsuchigumo Clan at the time, formed a pact. The terms of the pact dictated that the Tsuchigumo Style: Forbidden Life Technique Release: Creation of Heaven and Earth be classified as forbidden and sealed away.

In exchange, they will be provided with protection from the Village Hidden in the Leaves in times of need. To obtain their forbidden technique, they were constantly attacked by enemies, and a few members of the clan alive. There were disputes among the clan members for the clan’s survival.
