Sanyu Kazan

Sanger Kazan (火山サンガー, Kazan Sangā) is a character created by Sir Aether. Sanger is a former Hunter-nin of Kirigakure. After the Fourth Shinobi World War, he became famous for his Ice Release techniques and gained the moniker Blizzard of the Hidden Mist ( 吹雪れの人殺し, Kirigakure no Fubuki).

Early Life
Sanger was born on October 20 in Kirigakure. His mother was a member of the Yuki clan, while his Father was Moeru Kazan. Shortly after Sanger's birth, his father contracted a fatal illness and died leaving him to be raised by his mother. Sanger's mother later died from the same illness that his father had right before Sanger entered the academy. After the death of his mother, Sanger moved in with an aunt and uncle on his father's side. His uncle would start teaching him the basics of kenjutsu soon after he moved in. During this time Sanger also had to dye his hair a different color to hide his Kazan lineage, so he dyed his hair black.

After entering the academy Sanger tried to make friends with some of the other students but was ignored. For a while Sanger tried to continue to make friends but gave up after a few weeks. Two months after entering the Academy, Sanger had rocks thrown at him by some bullies who were then chased off by a classmate named Illia Tatsumaki. Sanger thanked her and later that day went to his training area but was followed by Illia, who saw him practicing his Ice Release. Originally afraid that she was going to tell somebody, he was surprised by her friendliness and willingness to keep it a secret. The two would then decided to help each other train. The two of them would later help chase off a group of students bullying another classmate and future teammate, Kūdō Hikage who was being made fun of for his feminine looks.

Later after graduating the Academy at the age of 10, Sanger was put on a team with Illia Tatsumaki and Kūdō due to the three of them showing excellent teamwork with each other, with Kazuki. A few months later the team's sensei offered to enter them in the Chūnin Exams but the three decided to pass on the opportunity to train some more and learn new skills. Sanger and his team would keep refusing to enter the Chūnin Exams until they were all twelve years old.

Chūnin Exams
Two years after graduating the academy Sanger, Illia and Kūdō decided to enter the first chūnin exams of the year being held in Konohagakure.

During the third part of the chūnin Exam, Sanger watched a unnamed Konaha genin severely injure Kūdō and later Illia. During the final match of the exams, Sanger is at first overpowered by the unnamed genin, but eventually while he is distracted he manages to rip a chunk of his arm off and nearly severs his spine, winning the match. Ultimately despite "winning" the Chūnin Exams, Sanger did not become a chūnin until his next one six months later.

Post Chūnin Exam
After becoming chūnin six months later, Sanger was scouted by the Hunter-nin and began training not long after, eventually becoming a full fledged member before he was even 14. At some point after this but before he became a jōnin, Sanger discovered an old, abandoned temple and turned it into a safe house, not telling even his superiors about its existence.

Later at the age of 15 Sanger became a jōnin and fell in love with Illia who returned his feelings. Also at some point during this time he fought and killed Arashi Tatsumaki (and having his right eye damaged), critically injured Shiokaze Tatsumaki and met Kakuzu. Not long after these events Kūdō died, while the Hikage clan allowed Sanger to transplant his Mōmokugan into his damaged right eye. Some time later, Sanger and Illia were ambushed by 12 Konoha Shinobi during a mission. During the ambush, due to his desire to protect Illia, his Mōmokugan evolved into a Norowa Mōmokugan and unlocked the technique Meian and its derived technique Meian: Hakai, allowing him and Illia to overpower the remaining Konoha shinobi, though Sanger was severely injured and had to be rushed back to Kirigakure for treatment.

Personality
Sanger has been described by many to be melancholic. The few who have tried to become friends tend to give up do to his anti-social and introverted attitude. Sanger is also highly distrusting of most people and slow to warm up to friendships due to the abuse he suffered from fellow classmates during his academy years. Sanger also does not like to tell people about his personal life, due to a habit of keeping secrets while part of the Kirigakure Hunter-nin. Sanger also has a strong dislike for Konaha shinobi after he and Illia were ambushed by a group of 12 of them.

During his academy years he developed an intense hatred to most of his classmates as they bullied and abused him. One of the few exceptions to this was a fellow classmate named Illia, who instead thought his abilities were cool after she found out about them. After graduating from the academy he would often refuse to work as a team with his classmates except Illia. He would also ignore the ones who abused him outright, refusing to speak or even acknowledge them. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, while he still does not like his old classmates, he did save several of their lives during the Shinju's rampage, showing that he at least cares about their lives.

To the few people that Sanger could call friends, he is very protective and loyal. While normally he does not like to socialize, he does like spending time with his childhood friend and wife Illia, and would often due favors for her. After a few years as part of the Hunter-nin Sanger realized that he had fallen in love with Illia, but had a hard time expressing this to her at first. Sanger would even go as far as to challenge Illia's father (who hated Sanger because of his Kekkei Genkai) who is also the head of the Tatsumaki clan to show how much he cared for her.

In battle Sanger is a quick thinker, but likes to take things slowly at first and will often try to goad his opponents into revealing their techniques. After finishing analyzing his opponents Sanger is merciless and quite violent as described by many who have fought with him. If he had the upper hand during the fight, Sanger will try to keep one opponent alive (though heavily injured) to try and interrogate them later in order to get whatever secrets they may hold, though he will forgo this if his teammates are in danger.

Appearance
Sanger's most noticeable features are his silver hair and his violet colored eyes. During his childhood, his casual attire consisted of a loose fitting, blue coat that reached almost to his knees, black pants and sandals. After his mother died and he was taken in by his uncle, Sanger dyed his hair black to hide his Kazan lineage.

As a genin Sanger wore a dark blue mantle that covered just past his stomach and was adorned with white feathers at his chest along with a black shirt and blue pants under the mantle. He also wore black colored boots and gloves. Sanger also began to let his hair grow out. He also kept his hair dyed black during his first Chūnin exam, but stopped doing so after it ended.

As a chūnin and jōnin Sanger wore a purple, hood-less mantle with a plain black shirt underneath, along with dark blue shinobi pants and black boots. Sanger also wore black gloves with the Kirigakure symbol on them and several seals that stored shuriken and kunai. He also let his hair grow out even further and put it into a ponytail as well as having three bags, two on either side of his face and one down the middle. Because he is a part of the Hunter-nin, Sanger has a cursed seal put on his tongue that acts similar to the Cursed Tongue Eradication Technique, though it would kill him instead of paralyzing him. During the Fourth Shinobi World War he switched to the standard Kirigakure outfit along with a blue Allied Shinobi Forces forehead protector.

His casual outfit consists of a plain black shirt with a teal long-sleeve shirt over it, along with grey colored pants. He also wears a white eyepatch over his right eye.

Sensory Perception
Sanger is a sensory type, showing signs during his first Chūnin exams during which he could sense the chakra of those a short distance away. During his time with the Hunter-nin his sensory perception grew exponentially, being able to sense targets much farther away. Sanger is also been shown to be able to suppress his own chakra as well as others, allowing for easier infiltration of enemy locations.

Ninjutsu
Sanger is regarded as one of Kirigakure's most talented user of ninjutsu, being able to learn multiple high level techniques at a young age. However due to him training almost in nothing but ninjutsu he lacks skills in taijutsu and is even worse at genjutsu, though his skill in taijutsu has improved over time. Overall Sanger's ninjutsu skills are great enough that Kabuto wanted him killed so that he could reincarnate him.

Nature Transformation
As a member of the Yuki clan, Sanger has an affinity to Water and Wind Release as well as the Ice Release. Sanger possesses the Ice Release, which is the advanced nature kekkei genkai of the Yuki clan, and allows him to combine wind and water-based chakra to create ice. The ice that is created is resistant to fire-based attacks, only melting slightly when coming into contact with fire. Offensively, he can create dragon-shaped blizzards or large shards of ice that are propelled at his opponent. One of his most used techniques is the Ice Armor, which he uses to cover himself in fire resistant ice. This armor is highly resistant to attacks and he can still use ninjutsu while in it. However this armor can be pierced with something very sharp or be shattered with powerful taijutsu.

Sanger can also utilize Red Ice by mixing blood with Yin chakra and then freezing it, creating a red colored ice that is far stronger than the normal Ice Release. With the Red Ice, Sanger can create fangs or talons for short range attacks or he can splash his blood on opponents, then turn that blood into ice needles to impale major organs or blood vessels.

Sanger can also utilize the forbidden Black Ice, which is fatal to an opponent if they are as little as scratched; after being cut with black ice it quickly freezes the afflicted area and if not removed immediately will cause death. Utilizing Black Ice, Sanger can create a needle of black ice in the palm of his glove and impale an opponent with it, or using an ice clone, have it create weapons of black ice and have the clone rampage within enemy ranks.

With the Water Release Sanger can create a small lakes worth of water or send a dragon made of water to attack a foe. With the Wind Release Sanger can create gusts to blow back an opponent or create waves of air that slash like blades.

Barrier Ninjutsu
Sanger has also been shown to be highly skilled in Barrier Ninjutsu, which his most powerful are utilized through the Rashinban Tanken. Examples include Barrier: Four Corner Yang Formation, which allowed him to trap others inside a ninjutsu-repelling barrier and Barrier: Impure World Reflection, which masks the presence of those inside its borders by rendering them invisible and making their chakra undetectable. He can also create barriers without the Rashinban Tanken, one of which allows to to mark stones with a formula and be mentally alerted if somebody gets to close to the stone.

Kenjutsu
Sanger is an extremely talented swordsman and can wield a double-bladed sword with great proficiency. By using Chakra Flow with his Ice Release, he is able to coat his sword with it and increase the width and sharpness of the blade and allowing it to freeze nearby water. He can also use Chakra Flow with Wind Release on his sword, increasing its range and cutting power, as well as allowing it to cut through Lightning Release techniques. Sanger has also shown to be able to create swords out of ice, though he still prefers metal blades.

Norowa Mōmokugan
While not seen using the regular Mōmokugan's abilities, Sanger did manage to awaken the Norowa Mōmokugan at some point before the start of Shippuden. Using his Norowa Mōmokugan's abilities he could utilize a technique called Meian, which strengthens the power of his Yin and Yang Release techniques. He could also use a specialized version of Meian called Meian: Hakai to cause distortions in space, allowing him to bypass defenses, or to severely damage living beings.

Other Skills
As a member of the Hunter-nin Sanger has vast knowledge in tracking, human anatomy, psychology, herbal medicine and various assassination skills. Sanger is also familiar with several foreign techniques such as the Uchiha's Amaterasu, Kakashi's Lightning Cutter and Senjutsu. Sanger carries multiple customized weapons such as a double-bladed sword, special exploding tags that freeze a small area when activated and the Rashinban Tanken. Sanger also keeps with him several medicines that cure a wide variety of ailments. Like Illia, he keeps poisoned senbon in his hair to prevent his opponents from grabbing it.

Three-Tails' Appearance
Sanger along with Illia is seen on a mission to locate and seal the Three-tails inside a jinchuriki before anybody else discovers its location. After arriving at the lake that it was in, Sanger discovers that it has already been taken by the Akatsuki and fail to locate their hideout. He and Illia then go to report their failure to the Mizukage.

Six-Tails Unleashed
Sanger is a part of Tsurugi's team ordered to bring Utakata back the Kirigakure. He along with the rest of the unit runs into Pain's Animal Path and were attacked. While the rest of the unit was killed Sanger managed to survive by using his Red Ice to temporarily close his wounds. Upon returning to Kirigakure he collapses due to his wounds and would have died if Illia had not discovered him and took him to a hospital. While recovering the Mizukage visits briefly and Sanger informs her of what happened.

Five Kage Summit
Sanger is seen along with Illia cheering for Mei Terumi, the fifth Mizukage when she is leaving for the Summit. Later he is seen welcoming the Mizukage back in the village. Before leaving for the Land of Lightning, Sanger and Illia talk about what they are going to do after the war. During their conversation Sanger talks about how their wedding is going to be and who to invite.

Fourth Shinobi World War: Confrontation
When the Fourth Great Shinobi World War began Sanger was placed in the First Division which was sent to the border of the Land of Lightning to defend against an approaching Akatsuki coalition. Before the battle began he expressed disappointment that he and Illia were placed in different divisions. After Darui launched the first attack Sanger confronted several White Zetsu Army clones. These Zetsu prove to be resilient to attacks and one of them manages to latch on to Sanger and absorbs some of his chakra. Sanger manages to escape by activating his Ice Armor which helps stop the White Zetsu Army clones from latching on to him again. At one point during the fighting Sanger is attacked by Asuma who used the Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning against him. Sanger survives the explosion due to the Ice Armor he was wearing. Preparing to attack Asuma, Sanger stops when he senses the chakra of his mother and leaves to confront her.

Confronting Sumire Yuki on the water, Sanger is praised by her for growing up strong, but is also warned by her that he needs to seal her before she can go into Sage Mode. Sanger tries to attack her but is stopped by several swordfish that Sumire was forced to summon. Later Sanger manages to defeat the swordfish, but is unable to stop Sumire from entering Sage Mode. Sanger is then attacked by a senjutsu enhanced Ice Release: Dragon's Ire, but manages to barely dodge it. Distracted, Sanger does not hear the warning that his mother yelled, Sanger is almost killed by an Ice Clone, but is saved by the timely arrival of Illia, who had just arrived with the reinforcements from the Second Division.

After Illia arrives Sanger tells Sumire she is his fiance after she asks who Illia is, but gets embarrassed when Sumire mentions that she is a perfect match for him. Sanger is congratulated by Sumire, but is also warned to seal her quickly. Sanger and Illia then attack her with a barrage of collaboration techniques and succeed in wearing out Sumire's sage mode. Sanger then tries to attack her with a Black Ice kunai but Sumire is forced to use the Mist Transformation technique. After the transformation Sanger notices that Sumire's personality was erased. Before Sanger can react, Sumire uses the Ice Release: Diamond Dust technique to try and blind the two, but it is blocked when Illia puts up a tornado around herself and Sanger. Inside the barrier Sanger tells Illia that he has a plan to trap his mother inside a barrier, but they have to get to dry land for it to work. Before Sanger or Illia can react, the tornado is destroyed by Sumire using the Water Release: Water Hydra technique. The two retreat to the beach where Sanger marks the boundaries for the barrier using the Rashinban Tanken. Illia then tells Sanger that Sumire is rushing to the beach. Right as Sumire enters the boundaries for the barrier, Sanger activates the Barrier: Four Corner Yang Formation technique, but is dragged into the barrier boundary before it can properly form and is stabbed by Sumire with a Red Ice sword just as the barrier fully forms. However Sumire's Mist Transformation wears off and Sanger takes advantage by stabbing her with a Black Ice kunai and begins to seal her. Due to the effects of the juinjutsu on the Black Ice kunai Sumire's personality returns and Sanger tells her not to worry about his injury because a teammate is remotely healing him. Sanger then listens to her final words before her sealing is complete. With tears in his eyes Sanger puts a sealing tag on the ice that encases his mother. Sanger then deactivates the barrier and is embraced by Illia. They both then continue to battle the Akatsuki forces.

Later after defeating his mother with the aid of Illia, Sanger is seen helping subdue Kakuzu and by nightfall, the rest of the Akatsuki forces have been dealt with. Before he could celebrate Tobi arrives on the battlefield with the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. As the statue wrecked havoc Sanger and Illia attack it with a collaboration technique only to see that it had no effect on the statue. After the statue and Tobi leave the battlefield Sanger and Illia retreat as night begins to fall.

Fourth Shinobi World War: Climax
Sanger later arrives at the battlefield where Naruto is fighting the Ten-tails along with the rest of the First Division. Following the Strategy relayed to them by Shikaku Sanger along with other Kiri-nin blind Madara and Tobi by using the Hiding in Mist Technique and later helps mixing water with the quicklime that the Iwa-nin poured into the hole that the Ten-tails was stuck in.

Backed up by Illia, Sanger tries to attack Tobi using the Ice Release: Ice Fang Bullet technique but is quickly repulsed by the now fully matured Ten-tails who had escaped the hole that it had been seemingly trapped in. Later as Obito uses the Ten-tails as a medium for the Wood Release: Cutting Technique, Sanger protects himself, Illia and several other shinobi with a large-scale Ice Dome. Later Sanger expresses surprise when he is given some of Kurama's chakra and shows amazement on how it feels.

Later after the Ten-tails creates multiple natural disasters Sanger helps form a defensive line to protect Naruto as he is being healed by Sakura. Later, Sanger helps reinforce the earthen walls with an ice wall. As the Tailed Beast Ball is about to break through the earth walls it is teleported into the sea, with Sanger expressing surprise when sensing four powerful chakra signatures. Sanger then watches in awe as the Four Red Yang Formation is erected and the Ten-tails pinned. After Sanger then charges to attack the Ten-tails' army of clones with the rest of the alliance. Sanger then unseals Kōsetsu from a scroll and defeats several of the clones with its ice abilities. Later, a larger clone attacks him, but he manages to kill it with the Ice Release: Icicle Fang technique.

Birth of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki
Later after Tobi becomes the Ten-tails jinchuriki, Sanger expresses shock after he destroys the Four Red Yang Formation. Later after Tobi Sets up a tree and the Six Red Yang Formation, Sanger is given Kurama's chakra and teleported by Minato outside the barrier before the Tailed Beast Balls explode.

Later when the Ten-Tails manifests its true form as the Shinju and starts absorbing chakra from the alliance, Sanger is seen cutting the branches of the Shinju with Kōsetsu, but is caught in the branches and looses most of his chakra before Illia cuts him loose. After being cut loose Sanger has some chakra transferred to him by Inuwashi and Illia, but still remains physically exhausted. Later he resumes his attack on the Shinju along with the rest of the Kirigakure shinobi while being led by Mei. He later joins with the rest of the Alliance in pulling the chakra out of Tobi and freeing the tailed beasts.

Sanger is later seen along with the rest of the Alliance being attacked by Guruguru using a miniature version of the Wood Release: Several Thousand Hands technique. As the statue is about to attack an exhausted Sanger tries to make a shield, but fails to do so before the statue launches five different nature attacks at once. Sanger then expresses relief when Hiruzen manages to block the statue's attack.

After Guruguru ends the battle abruptly Sanger is seen with Illia looking at the moon with Madara's reflected dojutsu. As he realizes what is about to happen, Sanger tries to set up the Four Corner Yang Formation barrier to try and protect himself and Illia, but ultimately is caught in the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Inside of it Sanger dreamed that both of his parents are alive and that he and Illia are happily married.

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki Strikes
Ultimately, Sanger and the rest of the world were freed from the genjutsu by Naruto and Sasuke who ended the war.

Blank Period
Later after Naruto and Sasuke dispelled the Infinite Tsukuyomi, Sanger was seen at the funerals for Ao and Kūdō. Two months later, Sanger married Illia.

The Last: Naruto the Movie
Two years after the Fourth Shinobi World War, with the moon beginning to descend towards Earth, Sanger is seen destroying meteorites with his Ice Release. He is later seen setting up the Four Corner Yang Formation barrier around the the Kiri hospital to protect it from a larger meteorite and then strengthens it with Meian, allowing the barrier to destroy the meteorite. After the crisis is averted, Sanger walks into Illia's room and is greeted by her and is assured by her that she is alright.

Sanger Hiden: Frozen Resolve
Some time after the events of The Last, Sanger is rushing to the hospital after he got word that his wife Illia went into labor. Bye the time he gets there, Illia has already given birth to triplets, but is dying due to complications from the birth. A distraught Sanger, begs the doctors to save her life only to be told that they were trying everything they could. After listening to Illia's final words, Sanger for the first time in a long time, breaks down in tears after her passing.

About a year later, Sanger travels to Kusagakure to talk to Kahyō, a relative of his and master of the Hōzuki Castle, about any remaining members of the Yuki clan. After talking for a while, Kahyō mentions the death of her son Hakuhyō, causing Sanger to tear up, being reminded about Illia's death a year prior. After calming down Sanger tells Kahyō that he wishes to regather the scattered members of the Yuki clan. Kahyō however does not approve, due to her not wanting them to get involved with the shinobi world. Afterwards Sanger leaves, having not come up with any other leads about Yuki clan members in hiding and journeys back to Kirigakure.

One he is back in the Land of Water, Sanger is attacked by a masked individual, but manages to block their attack. The masked person states that they hate him and his clan and that he will pay for his clan's past actions. After a short battle, Sanger manages to subdue the masked individual and prepares to interrogate, only for the masked individual to state that Sanger had better prepare himself because he will know real suffering before being killed, and disappears as the masked person was only a shadow clone. After the clone's disappearance Sanger makes a made rush for Kirigakure with his thoughts about children being in danger.

Epilogue
Years later, Sanger has adopted a less dangerous lifestyle going on very few high-risk missions in order to make sure that his three children have at least one parent to raise them, though he still keeps training to hone his skills. Sanger often tends Illia's grave, with his children placing flowers on it whenever they visit.

Illia Tatsumaki
Back in the academy Illia unlike others wished to become Sanger's friend, though Sanger didn't want to be her friend at first. This later changed when she saw him performing an Ice Release technique and not running away in fear. The two became fast friends and eventually got engaged. When confronted by Illia's father, Sanger challenged him despite their difference in skill.

Later during a mission with her, they were both ambushed by 12 Konaha shinobi. While Illia tried to get Sanger to retreat while she distracted them he refused. During some part of that battle Sanger got severely injured which caused Illia to fly into a rage and ended up killing the rest of the enemy.

When Illia died, Sanger became a complete wreck, and became severely depressed. After a while he realized that he needed to be a father to his children and vowed in front of Illia's grave that their children will have a father growing up.
