Background

When he was still a kid, he fabricated a reckless decision that toll him the lives of his teammates. Ashamed of this, he felt he was not worthy of being promoted across the rank of genin. Despite this, he continued to train arduously to improve his skills, something that was insisted upon him by Tobirama Senju. Kosuke would remain a genin for over 50 years, thus the reason others called him the Eternal Genin. During this time, Kosuke would serve nether the Second, Tertiary, and Quaternary Hokage. At other points, he fought alongside the Legendary Sannin, Konoha's White Fang, and the previous generation of Ino-Shika-Chō trio.

While on the mission, they realised that their borders were invaded past several Iwagakure shinobi. After beingness left by both Hayama and Tekuno, to report to the village what had happened while they held them off, they were confronted past ii Iwagakure teams that had broken through the defensive lines. Later defeating the teams with various techniques, Kosuke directly clashed with the set on forcefulness's leader who mistook him to be the leader of Konoha'south defence force forces every bit well. After Naruto returned challenge that he could never carelessness a comrade on the battlefield, Kosuke declared that he would neither die, nor permit Konoha to be besieged by someone who would so willingly sacrifice their subordinates. With this, he defeated the Iwagakure kunoichi.

He is also quite loyal, property closely to the Volition of Burn conventionalities shared by the villagers with which comes his great sense of duty. This is seen in his willingness to sacrifice himself to allow Naruto to escape to warn the village and when he got angry at the Iwa kunoichi that had sacrificed her genin-level ninja during the battle. Because of what happened during his youth, Kosuke seemed to put piffling value on his life, resulting in him putting the village'due south well-being ahead of his own, which led to him existence repeatedly reprimanded by the Second, Third, and Quaternary Hokage.
