Hyoue leads the Manjitani Clan, identifiable by his grey hair. After capturing the kunoichi Sakuya and Hotaru, he assigns Hiei, a defector from the Nagiri Clan, the task of breaking their resistance. Hyoue's goal is their forced submission and integration into his clan, explicitly requiring their use as sexual objects for his men.

Under Hyoue's leadership, female ninjas in the Manjitani Clan are mandated to be promiscuous. This expectation is embodied by Akebi, Hyoue's primary subordinate, whose conduct demonstrates the enforced sexual compliance demanded of women within the clan structure.
