Not much are known about its creation and the exact style is kept under close surveillance by the Inugami clan, as they wish the style remains a hidden treasure.

## Jutsu Pros & Cons

Pros :

Extreme speeds (More speed than what a normal person his age should have. Passively and actively enhanced, both from the training of his, but also from whenever he gets serious or uses his techniques. Actively it gives the least a 0.5 point at speed and at max a 2.0 depending on the terrain and for how much time the technique is used. Most common is the 0.5 when in fights, exept if given the time to get in propper stances and fully ready the weapons, which needs a one turn of getting ready and a second to execute the attack itself. If no stances are used, then a buff of 0.5 is added to the speed, which can scale to a 1.5, depending on how serious and how fast one wants to end the fight, but cannot go over the 1.5 cap without getting ready. Lastly, the more one uses the techniques at their full power, using the buff in other words, the more strain it puts on the body and the bigger the backlash will be, even for a master.)

Able to allow one who has mastered it to have the ability of understanding extremely fast movements. (They are able to trace projectiles going at speeds of five hundred kilometers or three hundred and eleven miles per hour at max with ease, while anything that moves faster is understood but looks like a blur. This does not mean that they are able to avoid items with those speeds, exept if they actually have power above a certain threshold for their speed, strengh, stamina and chakra. The threshold is Speed 7, Strength 5, Stamina 7, Chakra for wind users 5 and for others 7. If one has learned even one per cent of any other taijutsu, then he is unable to reach the full potential of the kenjutsu and is unable to manage moving at speeds similar or even bigger than those, even if he has the statistics stated.)

Cons :

Short distance

With the lack of two swords, one is not allowed to show the full power of the style of rapid and quick thrusts from two swords, exept if he is a master, which still leaves an actual disavantage towards the master, as he uses a bit more time in rearranging his stances to move from the one attack to the other more fluidly.
