Hazumigakure (雪隠れの里, Hazumigakure no Sato; Literally meaning "Village Hidden in the Spring") is located in the Land of Spring. Its ninja once specialized in manipulating preexisting ice. At the end of the movie, the snow is subsequently melted and the country is renamed the Land of Spring, instead of the Land of Snow. Once the snow melted, the remaining ninja of Hazumi no Kuni unified, and developed their own minor Ninja Village, allying with the Daimyo of Hazumi no Kuni. The Ninja are more universal with their jutsu, since the preexisting ice melted. Their Leader is the Hazumikage.
