Of naturally , it does n’t facilitate that he does n’t even have a given name in the anime . ( To be fair , not all of the known Kage in the serial are named . )
This Kage could have used more foresightfulness and might , but at least he led his mass proudly .

When state of war take his lifespan , he only intrust his long - time bodyguard , who also profoundly believed in protecting Kumogakure , with the Kage position .
