Hidden Waterfall Village Style: Cutting Water Sword - a secret technique of Takigakure (the Hidden Waterfall Village), allowing one to form a blade from water. Usually such a weapon is used in close combat, however Shibuki showed that it can also be used for ranged attacks. The sword is highly durable: it withstands and cuts through most Fire Style techniques, and itself has the durability of a real bladed weapon and is capable of piercing an opponent's body.
