Hidden Village of Grass - Unknown

We've seen a couple of ninjas from this village during the Chuunin exam, but nothing is known about this village. The leader is unknown also. Lets hope for more information on this village as the series proceed.

Hidden Village of Waterfall - Shibuki

This village was shown in the second special. The village is hidden behind a waterfall, and the entrance is hidden so ninjas from other villages can't attack the village of Waterfall. There are no strong ninjas within this village, and the leader Shibuki is quite weak. They do however have the forbidden water that allows the user to increase chakra tenfold, so that's the only thing that they rely on to defend their village.
