About Motoi

Motoi is a Jōnin-rank shinobi of Kumogakure. Across the series Motoi is also known as Killer B's Friend and Turtle Island Keeper.

His combat style draws on Ninjutsu and Taijutsu. His chakra natures cover Water and Lightning.

Motoi first appears in the Itachi Pursuit & Sasuke vs Itachi arc. He survives to the end of Naruto: Shippūden. Every field on this page is frozen at that point in the story — no Boruto-era changes are applied.

How to guess Motoi in Narutodle

Motoi has no single standout column — the answer comes from stacking ordinary clues. Kumogakure village and the Jōnin rank each trim the board a little. Motoi debuts mid-series, in the Itachi Pursuit & Sasuke vs Itachi arc, so the Debut Arc arrow can fall either way. Every guess you submit is scored column by column: a full match shows green, a partial match on a multi-value column shows yellow, and no overlap shows red.
