Hikoshirō Sadamune

[Ðr. Tran]

「夜雀」_{Night-Sparrow}
Yosuzume is a katana capable of elemental recomposition. Chakra is elementally recomposed to the lightning element, which causes sparks to run along the length of the blade.  It increases the piercing ability of the weapon, as well as diffuses earth element techniques.  Counter-balancing lightning element techniques can be achieved by flowing more chakra into the blade to match the opposing technique or overpower the opposing technique and re-direct it. When the blade is "active", it emits chirping sounds ("chi, chi, chi").

「霧隠れの術」_{Hiding in Mist Technique}
The Kirigakure no Jutsu is a specialty of the ninja from Kirigakure, where one causes a mist to spring forth by lifting up some water from either a preexisting source or expelled from their mouth, then goes in and out of sight at will from within the pearly-white realm.

「無音殺人術 」_{Soundless Murder Technique}
The Muon Satsujin Jutsu is simply a very quiet method of killing an opponent, usually from behind with a blade. Additionally, because the user moves silently, it cannot be defended against, because the attack cannot be anticipated. The user will often slit their opponent's throat, preventing any cry that might give them away. Sadamune is apt enough with this technique that he can track and kill opponents through sound alone.

「雷遁適性」_{Lightning Release Aptitude}
Sadamune is an expert in the knowledge of lightning element ninjutsu. His knowledge of how lightning release functions, as well as his experience in performing them, has made him extremely proficient in conserving chakra for these techniques. He's able to perform lightning release techniques with the exact chakra requirement.

「雷遁影分身」_{Lightning Release Shadow Clone}
Raiton Kage Bunshin allows the user to make a shadow clone infused with lightning. Because it is a shadow clone, it is able to perform techniques and interact with the environment due to it having physical substance; and also evenly distributes the user's chakra to each clone. If the clone is injured, it will revert to its natural lightning-state, at the same time electrocuting whatever it is touching.

「雷遁・磁場死 」_{Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder}
Raiton: Jibashi, a B Rank technique, allows Sadamune to create a wave of electricity from his sword, Yosuzume. Its power varies from a small surge to shock an opponent, to a powerful stream of lightning capable of ripping through solid rock. It is ideal to use in conjunction with a water technique. Because Yosuzume recomposes chakra to the lightning element for Sadamune, hand seals are not required when used in conjunction with the blade. This technique can also be performed without Yosuzume, though it will then require hand seals.

「雷球」_{Lightning Ball}
Raikyū is a C Rank technique. By gathering chakra between at the tip of Yosuzume, Sadamune can create a ball of electrical energy and launch it at the enemy. Because Yosuzume recomposes chakra to the lightning element for Sadamune, hand seals are not required when used in conjunction with the blade. This technique can also be performed without Yosuzume, though it will then require hand seals.

「雷葬・雷の宴 」_{Lightning Burial: Banquet of Lightning}
Raisō: Ikazuchi no Utage is a C Rank technique. Using Yosuzume, Sadamune can create several thunderbolts that cut through the ground until they hit the enemy. Because Yosuzume recomposes chakra to the lightning element for Sadamune, hand seals are not required when used in conjunction with the blade. This technique can also be performed without Yosuzume, though it will then require hand seals.

「亡者流し 」_{Dead Current}
Mōja Nagashi is an B Rank technique that is used while wielding Yosuzume. The electricity in the blade, upon striking an opponent, will discharge into the target's body and act as electrical signals from the nerves, making its muscles contract and causing the body to go stiff.
