Shurikenjutsu Mastery - an exceptional level of proficiency with throwing weapons, available only to a select few, such as Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha. The user combines lightning-fast throwing speed, perfect accuracy, and complete control over the trajectory of every projectile. Shuriken and kunai are directed along the most complex trajectories: they collide with one another to strike targets in blind spots, or control their flight with the thinnest of wires. Even as a child, Itachi hit eight targets simultaneously, one of which was hidden from direct view, and his throws are extremely difficult to predict, which allows him to negate the advantages of techniques like Lightning Blade Creation, which Sasuke used. Sasuke, having mastered the Uchiha style, uses special wrist seals to instantly draw and throw an entire arsenal, and also easily transitions to close combat with a sword, juggling weapons between attacking and defensive maneuvers.
