Team Mekajiki

The Team Mekajiki was a group of children and teenagers who have escaped from massacres against their clans by having Kekkei Genkai or who were rejected because were considered too problematic to follow the teachings imposed over the Bloody Mist regime and were welcomed and trained by Mekajiki Kankitsu, who wanted to disseminate his methodologies, ideologies, and some of his own techniques for young shinobi that could combat the brutal and bloody regime of Mizukage and they were able to rebuild Kirigakure in the future.

By counting only with members who were discriminated and shunned by other citizens of the village, Team Mekajiki was feared in Kirigakure because some confabulated that he planned to use his students as soldiers against the Mizukage and desired to run a coup d'etat. However, with the passage of time and the non-performance in any activity against the Mizukage performed by none of his students, the group started to be used as a weapon in favor of Kirigakure, although none of the members passively accept the orders and brutal ideologies of their superiors.

Members
Mekajiki welcomed children for many years, until he became too old to take care of so many at the same time. Over the years, the number of children on his guard decreased, until the time that the persecutions and massacres against clans ended.
