Hōzukijō.
Hōzuki-jō (鬼灯城, 鬼燈城, literally meaning: Demon Lamp Castle), also known as the Blood Prison (ブラッド・プリズン, Buraddo Purizun), is a criminal containment facility located in Kusagakure, that appears in Naruto 5: Blood Prison. Its master (主, aruji) is Mui, who uses the ultimate imprisonment technique to seal the abilities of his prisoners.
Plot Overview
Naruto Uzumaki was sent here after he being falsely accused of attempting to assassinate the Fourth Raikage, and killing jōnin from both Kirigakure and Iwagakure. This was all part of Mui's plot, in order to use Kurama's chakra to open the Box of Ultimate Bliss to release his son Muku. Several prisoners, such as Ryūzetsu and Maroi, were in fact sent in as spies to prevent Mui from opening the box again. Ultimately, they failed to prevent that, and when Muku came out, he was corrupted by the box's powers and transformed into Satori. After a brutal battle, Muku and Mui died together, and the prison castle was burned down. The prisoners, being freed from Mui's imprisonment technique, attempted to escape, but were recaptured by the Konoha 11. Mui and Ryūzetsu's bodies were buried outside the castle.
