Knowledgeable and tactical: He was the first Suna shinobi to research the jinchūriki and the tailed beasts with the goal of controlling Shukaku, demonstrating his intellect and strategic thinking. Stern leader: The Kazekage clan, in general, is attributed with having incredibly stoic and serious personalities due to their heavy responsibilities, a demeanor Shamon likely shared. Powers and Abilities As the Second Kazekage, Shamon was an undoubtedly powerful shinobi of his era. Mastery of Puppet Technique: Shamon's primary contribution was strengthening his village's military might through the use of puppetry, developing new ninjutsu for shinobi to fight with multiple partners. He founded the Puppet Brigade, an elite organization where Chiyo was one of his apprentices. High-level Shinobi: He was skilled enough to accompany the First Kazekage to the inaugural Kage Summit, indicating a high level of power and respect even before becoming Kage. Assassination: Despite his power and military advancements, he met an untimely death at the hands of assassins, continuing a trend that led to the "cursed" reputation of the Kazekage lineage.
