Raiga wielded two hook bladed weapons. These two swords were Raiga's "calling card" in the Mist Seven Swordsmen. While a ninja in Hidden Mist, Raiga would work alongside Hunter-nins going on missions, one such mission led them to a small village to track down a person who was spying on Hidden Mist.

Raiga and the hunter-nins began to indiscriminately wipe out many in the village. When Raiga found Ranmaru, the young boy told him they were alike. Ranmaru was a young boy who may have been orphaned due to his clan being wiped out in the bloodline massacres. Ranmaru used his bloodline ability to spy on the outside world. Cursed with sickness and gimp legs, Ranmaru could not leave the small village cabin he called home. Ranmaru told Raiga they both faced the pain of being alive and went through life in sadness. Ranmaru told Raiga he could kill him if it would bring his life meaning, and this moved Raiga.

Raiga asked about Ranmaru's past and then decided to work with him and become the young boys arms and legs. Ranmaru was given a chance to finally see the outside world and used his abilities to become Raiga's new eyes. The two left the country and traveled the world, eventually stopping in the River Country. There they found the Katabami goldmine under oppressive administrative governance. The miners welcomed Raiga overthrowing them from power.

Over the next six months Ranmaru would help Raiga extend dominance over the area. As Raiga fell further into delusion, he let his weeping and disturbed since of betrayal find an outlet on the miners. Anytime the miners failed to live up to his expectations, he would bury them alive and weep for their loss. This strange behavior led several miners to flee the gold mine. They eventually wound up in Hidden Leaf and sought help from their ninja.

Naruto, Lee, Neji and TenTen were dispatched to examine the mine. When they arrived, they managed to dispatch some of Raiga's men. A mist settled in and Neji learned he couldn't pierce it with his Byakugan. Young Ranmaru used his ability to extend a special chakra to block the Byakugan and also create phantoms with real chakra circulatory systems to fool the group. Raiga used his lightning techniques with his swords to deal out punishment, but Lee managed to separate Ranmaru from Raiga's back.

Distraught and weakened by an over-reliance on Ranmaru, Raiga had trouble fighting Naruto and his clones. Seeing a chance to flee to higher ground, he bolted. Naruto followed and managed to surprise Raiga with a Rasengan. Raiga was sent flying and crashed into a cliff where he became covered in rubble. Ranmaru did not give up on Raiga and soon came to his aid with the help of Karashi.

Raiga was revived by Ranmaru donating some of his chakra, which put a strain on Ranmaru himself. Thinking Naruto and company were responsible, Raiga defeated them one by one. Ranmaru was revived by the "Curry of life" and regained his vitality. Ranmaru aimed to atone for what he and Raiga had done together by tricking Raiga into walking off a cliff. However, a drunken Lee showed up and spoiled the plan. Naruto attacked Raiga and Ranmaru acted as Naruto's human shield. Raiga, hurt by Ranmaru's betrayals, decided to kill them both. Naruto struck him off the cliff and Raiga thought over how he was nothing now without Ranmaru. So Raiga called down an intense lightning bolt and reduced himself to ash before he hit the ground.
