One of the few friends Yukinoshin has.

Naoto, a committed disciple of the Musou Jikiden Eishin school, finds his fate tied to the dojo, mainly due to his engagement with Hyakuren's daughter. This connection leads to a respectful rivalry between him and Yukinoshin for the dojo's succession. Although Naoto emerges victorious from their competition, he profoundly admires Yukinoshin's undeniable skills.

"Yukinoshin may seem clumsy, yet he's the sole person I fully acknowledge. Have faith in him."
