The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist (霧の忍刀七人衆, Kiri no Shinobigatana Shichinin Shū) is an organization consisting of only the greatest blade wielding shinobi of their generation that Kirigakure can produce. There can only be seven members at a time, hence the name. There are seven unique swords that are specific within the group and are world-renowned. These swords are passed down from one generation of swordsmen to the next. However, each member is known to have their own set of unique blades as well.

Even though they are mainly known for their exceptional skill with the blade, these seven shinobi are also masters of their own elemental affinities, though their Water Release techniques are said to be incomparable to other shinobi.

Swords[]

SSMscroll

The scroll that all seven swords can be sealed in.

The swords can be held in a summoning scroll, which is currently sealed away in the Seven Swordsmen Treasury. A blade is assigned to a Swordsman once they have been given their unique title/rank (not counting Rookie and Newbie rank).

  • Hiramekarei (ヒラメカレイ): A bandaged double-handled sword that is capable of storing and emitting the user's chakra which can then take on various forms. It is also called the "Twinsword" (双刀, Sōtō).
  • Kabutowari (兜割; Literally meaning "Helmet Splitter"): A sword consisting of a single sided axe and a hammer joined by a length of chain. Said to be capable of crushing any and all defenses. It is also called the "Bluntsword" (鈍刀, Dontō).
  • Kiba (牙; Literally meaning "Fangs"): Twin swords that are imbued with lightning which increases their cutting power. They are said to be the sharpest swords ever forged. They are also called the "Thunderswords" (雷刀, Raitō).
  • Kubikiribōchō (首斬り包丁; Viz "Executioner's Blade"; Literally meaning "Decapitating Carving Knife"): A giant sword with a butcher-knife-like appearance, the wielder can use the semi-circle on the blade to decapitate an opponent's head, hence the name. The sword has an ability to regenerate using the iron absorbed from the blood of those it cuts down. It is also called the "Seversword" (断刀, Dantō).
  • Nuibari (縫い針; Literally meaning "Sewing Needle"): A sword in the shape of a needle with a long thin wire that resembles thread attached to it, which can be used to pierce enemies and "sew" them together in human bundles. It is also called the "Longsword" (長刀, Chōtō).
    • Currently in the possession of Kaori as retainer; seat held by Ningyō
  • Samehada (鮫肌; Literally meaning "Shark Skin"): The most terrifying of the seven blades, it has the appearance of a giant knife covered in shark scales. It is a sentient, living weapon and has the ability to "eat" chakra. It is also called the "Greatsword" (大刀, Daitō).
  • Shibuki (飛沫; Literally meaning "Splash"): A sword that has a scroll full of explosive tags incorporated into it, lined up behind the blade, combining swordsmanship and explosions. It is also called the "Blastsword" (爆刀, Bakutō).


The Auxiliary has made it her goal to master all the seven swords, so as an aid to her training, she placed seals upon the hilts of the swords that allow her to summon the sealed blades from the scroll at any given time. Taking this a step further, the former Vanguard had added an additional seal to each blade that will cause it to switch places with her currently held sword, so long as both are unsealed. In order to counter the effects of Saiteki Misumi's seals, Dart Terumī had her seals removed and he has placed his own in order to quick summon as necessary as well as summon them back to the scroll should a sword be misplaced or stolen.

Trivia[]

  • It seems to be a tradition for the members and aspiring members of the Seven Swordsmen to have sharpened teeth. These days, however, the members have the choice to file their teeth to points or not. 
  • Their founder had established a school for Kenjutsu in Kirigakure wherein the swordsmen/women themselves teach the students in the art of wielding the sword.
  • The group has a headquarters within the village wherein they can meet, train and take temporary residence. Its location is only known to the current members of the Seven Swordsmen.
