Demon Brothers (鬼兄弟, Oni Kyōdai), Gōzu and Meizu, are two chūnin from Kirigakure that assisted Zabuza Momochi in defecting from the village. They subsequently worked with Zabuza in assassinations to earn enough funds for a second attempt at the Mizukage’s life.
The brothers are a paragon of coordinated attacks. Their large metal gauntlets (Gōzu wears the gauntlet on his right hand while Meizu wears his on his left) house a retractable shuriken-styled chain running between the two of them, which they can use to bind an enemy and then slice them to pieces. In the event that the shuriken chain is neutralized, they also have a release mechanism, to free them up for individual attacks. They use the sharp, poisoned claws on their gauntlets to shred their opponents.
