the shinobi island is unlike the other islands in that it is the only one where shinobi are born, raised, and trained as they are in the rest of the world. the shinobi island is small, but the ninja that rise from it are extremely powerful. the island is farther away from the other islands, but the various terrains found there, from beach-y flatlands to rocky highlands, and small gaggles of wooded lowlands, the shinobi that come from this island are well-rounded in all sorts of battle techniques and strategies.
