Kōshū Hyūga

"You think that Kōshū is someone who stands there, smiling like a fool and letting everyone pass by him with no idea of their intentions? Oh aren't you people laughable! If you think I'm smart, just take a look at Kōshū once again. He manages everything within the village. He knows everything about what goes on inside, and outside of it. So the next time you try and betray him without him knowing, all you have to do is wait till he catches you within his tide...you'll see why he's known as "Kōshū of the Flow" thereafter."

Kōshū Hyūga (日向紅主, Hyūga Kōshū) is a political figure of Konohagakure who has dramatically remodeled the apprehension of criminals following the rise in criminal activity after the. One of the few remnants of a previous generation, Kōshū was thrust into the depths of battle at a young age. As an honorary member of the 's main branch, it was his duty to partake in the protection of the world, but even further, his own village. While he didn't play an evident role in battle, he was a member of the unit that provided supplies to all of the squads. Basking within the moonlit sky, his inexperienced self saw the deaths of many, and through these experiences, hardened himself to become a better, stronger man.

Following the Fourth Shinobi World War, and the death of his eldest cousin, as well as his other cousins, Kōshū was placed with the imminent burden of becoming the new prodigy of his clan. However, he had a lackluster level of talent in comparison to his brethren, and was a sore letdown. Yet his passion for expunging crime from his village furthered his desires and therefore, his talents. Quickly rising up the ranks, he would become a prominent fighter among Konohagakure's forces, and swiftly was regarded as one of the greatest Hyūga in his generation, even being praised by herself.

At the age of 22, Kōshū had finally requested the to reinstate the Konoha Military Police Force, this time allowing them more freedom to move with the politics of Konohagakure itself. His offer accepted, Kōshū rose to be one of the most influential figures in the entire village, his exploits eventually leading to his current title: Kōshū of the Flow (流れの紅主, Nagare no Kōshū), one which he is both feared and respected for.
