Legendary Weapons

600, Winter.

The 7 legendary swords, it’s not too complex to figure that they served more as icons of leadership to the samurai before the reformation. Crafted to deal with the mainlander’s ninjutsu style, by a lineage that is either marginal or extinct.

## **Kubikiribōchō**

This blade is interesting enough, tests have determined that it is highly resistant against ninjutsu and physical attacks, perhaps the strongest parry among the legendary ones, but it comes at a cost, it’s fragile.

It seems like the blade is haunted to a degree, our expert in paranormal matters, a witch, has indicated that the wielder gets the ability to manipulate blood.

Blood manipulation, from their enemy’s wounds or if their blade destroys ninjutsu or parries it it can turn it into the liquid, to rebuild the blade or to use it as if it was a nature just like water nature. The state of this matter is liquid but can be sharp and pressurized.  Can also be used as nintaijutsu or to guard yourself from upcoming attacks.

Oddly enough, it can also cause the wielder to turn into more violent and sadistic antics, more tests should be taken to determine a non-paranormal explanation.

## **Samehada**

This creature is devilish, some say it is indeed a demon. Plausible theory seeing how its diet is entirely based on chakra.

Highly resistant and destructive against chakra structures with their sawed design, it also has a sort of jaws to aid the user in combat, also its size and length can change at the expense of chakra, even its shape.

One thing to note, is that the wielder the more experienced they become, the more propense they’re to suffer a metamorphosis. Temporary but in some cases animalistic shark or maritime traits remain similar to those humans that have connection with mystic beasts. This allows them to breathe underwater, strength and resistance against ninjutsu attacks and even healing minor wounds in this state. However after returning to normal it will leave both the user and the sword exhausted.

Samehada can feed from ninjutsu or chakra with its maws or by clashing it, it really works as an element that absorbs techniques when used as a shield.

## **Nuibari**

This one’s tricky, the thread attached to the needle can be manipulated like puppetry users do, even the needle can be manipulated in such telekinetic ways, to be launched around and to impale and “sew” targets. The thread is unbreakable and will tighten enough to cut through solid materials of the strongest ninjutsu kind, and figure out what’ll do to regular beings.

One recent discovery allowed us to determine that without the need of multi blade, it allows the user to release at least a dozen chakra copies of it and its thread around the battlefield, making movement difficult and allowing the user to escape if need be. The user can transfer ninjutsu through the threads and even start genjutsu through them.

## Kabutowari

This combination of weapons will destroy even the strongest ninjutsu defenses if combined in an attack, not only that but the ninjutsu defense will be turned into a sort of dust, which can be manipulated, similar to sand manipulation used by the 1 tailed jinchuuriki, and quite resistant similar to Yuki’s hyoton of a B rank at least.

The weapons can also level down walls and structures with ease if the user invests a high amount of chakra, also cause shockwaves, avalanches and even shape the battlefield. Structures can also be built by the chakra dust generated.

## Shibuki

The sword creates a sticky paper material that can be shaped into smaller ones, that will explode upon the user’s activation and can be done remotely (as long as they are nearby).

The wielder can transfer explosive capabilities to materials, foes and every technique performed through kenjutsu by using the sword.

A massive explosion is capable once a day, able to level down structures that are not too fortified.

## Kiba

These are the sharpest blades, able to cut through any surface as long as the user feeds them chakra, which generates lightning which can be manipulated for free by the user. They can be thrown in a sort of boomerang and can be pulled and hurled by magnetic prowess. They’re able to absorb chakra from techniques or chakra structures to generate even more energy.

## Hiramekarei

Formidable blade, it can create 2 chakra weapons of any shape that can be elongated briefly to longer distances to slash targets from afar. The user is also able to create chakra projectiles that when they hit their target, they will disrupt the target's chakra network briefly disabling their ninjutsu for at least 10 seconds.

This weapon has the most volume in regards to kenjutsu and the most synergy of any weapon with ninjutsu, techniques used are massive and more grand without any added cost as the sword works as an amplifier, however, these amplifying capabilities can be reduced until the user destroys chakra elements to feed the blade.

Additional:

## Gunbai

The ancestral Uchiha relic, apparently belonged to Sakai himself and later used by the first Uchiha leaders. It is the best defense against physical ninjutsu in existence, not only that but it is also made in a way that allows the user to deflect ninjutsu techniques, if they invest at least two quarters of the chakra invested on the original one.

The blade also absorbs techniques, being able to replicate them without any added cost, however, doing this will require the user to absorb more techniques and chakra with their blade in order to replicate the “mirror” technique of this blade again.

## **"Masamune"**

The true name of this blade is unknown, apparently those who wield them become the “sunset warrior” a person that will still be a living one but have the abilities of a spirit. The powers and the quality of the blade are legendary but they carry a toll, the user is cursed to always carry it with them until “death” herself allows them to pass the mantle or they die.

The sunset warrior will naturally have access to “spirit voices” though this is not voluntary, they will receive hints and warnings from spirits that inhabit their surroundings.

The sunset’s warrior eyes will turn silvery, almost color-less and shine an almost blinding light when they turn into the spirit shape, an armor and mask will appear once they turn into this outworldly warrior.

The sunset’s warrior state is when the spiritual force of the user is activated to use the blade, it lasts 5 turns/techniques approximately and gives every ninjutsu the ability to mark targets.

The spiritual state allows the user to perform 3 ninjutsu techniques at once!

The user may activate this state every 10 turns/techniques.

Abilities of the Masamune are

* **Mark of the twilight:** The wielder marks a single person that comes in contact or is close enough to get marked by the sword. This binds their spirit with the spirit blade and allows the user to track and detect their presence, as the sword will make signals to indicate that their target is at close proximity, even move on its own to defend against them or help the wielder deliver a counter attack if they’re about to be ambushed. Once marked, the person can’t escape while the “Sunset warrior” is summoned, the radius around the sword is 20 meters.

* **Death’s judge:** The user can summon spirits while in combat, materializing physical chakra spirits to help them, they can also summon former enemies they’ve slain through “judgment” and perform certain abilities from their repertoire. The spirit summoned is destructible, and will remain summoned till the user commands them to attack thrice, the user can only summon 1 spirit at a time. the cooldown would be of at least 5 turns until the next summoning can be performed.

* **Spirit blade:** When the user enters the state of “Sunset Warrior” the blade will be coated in spiritual energy, it’s specially destructible once it interacts with the ninjutsu of a marked person, disintegrating their chakra on touch. The spirit blade can also create a dome twice per state activation, which disintegrates marked chakra and keeps it hermetic from any damage coming from that particular foe.

* **Judgement:** the user judges a defeated enemy’s soul, making the masamune blade absorb a copy of it for the warrior to summon their spirit and perform a “notable” technique of theirs, this kills the victim for obvious reasons.

* **Ghost walker:** the sunset warrior can turn objects or people for a couple of seconds in spirit matter, allowing the user or any physical matter to go through them, also ninjutsu attacks or chakra.

This sword and role come at a high price, if they ever attempt to go against death's bidding or corrupt the balance of both worlds, Death itself will erase them from existence and drag them to the depths of the underworld.

## **Mugetsu**

The most recent addition to the Kai collection, a long, lightweight katana crafted by the youngest Kai and Konoha's Seventh Hokage, Ganshou, in the frigid mountains of Snow Country. Unlike the 7 Legendary blades, which were crafted to deal with the mainlanders' ninjutsu, this katana was made to deal with Iai do and it's single blade techniques..

It is said that the young Kai crafted this sword as an act of vengeance against the Samurai, seeking retribution for the wrongs they inflicted upon his bloodline.

**Kai’s perfection**: By focusing chakra onto the the blade, the wielder can unleash the full extent of its abilities, allowing them to cut through any surface

*"Your thick armors won't save you..."*

**Samurai’s bane**: The user of the blade can create a blue-hued afterimage of themselves during combat. This afterimage complements their attacks and movements. The afterimage is limited to performing only Kenjutsu strikes and techniques and can inflict damage to the enemy. It immediately disappears after performing one attack. The blue hue of the afterimage allows opponents to distinguish it from the real user. The afterimage can be damaged by the opponent's techniques. The ability can only be performed every other turn. It can only be summoned for offensive or defensive purposes and can't be used as a generic shadow clone for other actions.

*"You won't see this coming.."*

**Final act:** The user instantly switches places with the clone, destroying the clone in the process.

*"We will never be caught..."*

## Tsurugi Godai

A blade crafted by a well versed weaponsmith using a special brand of aqua hued steel called Luminlite. The weapon itself has a luminite blade and moonstone handle, while a silver hand guard seperates the vibrant metals. Within it's hand guard sits five gemstones, each representing an element that was imbued into the sword through chakra, revealing the abilities that it holds.

This sword allows the weilder to use all 5 elemental natures (fire, water, earth, wind, lighting). The user cannot use hand seals to use the elements the blade possesses, if the user does not know how to use the elements naturally.

The blade design: the blade is a French Rapier. Like it’s fellow French rapiers the two blade cutting edges go from the tip of the blade all the way down to hilt and a full hand Gaurd. The hand Gaurd is silver and has five small orbs around it equal distance from each other. One for each of the five elements: red for fire, silver for wind, gold for lighting, brown for earth, and blue for water. There is a orb at the end where you hold the blade. The handle of the blade is white moonstone with the aquamarine design on the hilt. And the blade itself is the aquamarine ore; Luminlite

The user will be able to use the sword in a kenjutsu-like manner. swinging the blade in succession in order to release the elemental jutsu of their choosing. for more complex Nature techniques, the swing combinations will need to be longer, and the user will need to follow the ninjutsu nature's guide for the rank of jutsu they may perform.
