Tenchikaimei

The Tenchikaimei (天地晦冥, Heaven and Earth Covered in Darkness), sometimes simply regarded as, are quite literally the entirety of Kirigakure's criminal syndicate. They expand enormously in influence, and while their names are simply whispers for the common citizens, there are agents lurking in every corner of Kirigakure. Truthfully, it is almost impossible to discern them from the common citizen, mainly because there are so many of them. It is estimated by the and associated organizations that there are at least half of Kirigakure's population associated with the Tenchikaimei in some way - direct or indirect.
