    This. Its obvious people like that would get targeted and killed because of their powers. I'm thinking Sarutobi killed more than a few of those people. :awesome

    Well, I think the same way that any doujin that is published in Japan. They have rather light laws about it, as long as someone is not trying to make a big money out of this.

    Do I get it right ?
    In the last chapter, when the scroll with seven swords it's revealed - there are only 4 sealed in it.
    The 3 missing are naturally:
    1. First from the left named "SEVER" - Executioner's Blade, original owner Zabuza who wields it now.
    2. Second from the left named "GREAT" - Shark Skin, original owner was Fuguki Suikazan (This big guy) next wielded by Kisame, now in possession of Killer Bee.
    3. Last one from the left named "TWIN" - Hiramekarei (?), original owner Mangetsu(?) - now in possession of Chojuro ( Mizukage gourd), Hiramekarei (This is this hammer who have duel-handled so maybe that's why TWIN).
    I have question about Mangetsu. When Suigetsu describes all members he mentions all with their own sword, even big guy it's mention as original owner, but his older brother he only mentions as a man who mastered all seven swords. So do you think he wields normaly the last one missing - the "hammer" or reson why he has this sealing scroll in the first place is it that he choose which one to wield with dependence of enemy?

    Okay this chapter was much better than the last few but Im ready to get back to Naruto. As great as Kakashi is, this huge battle doesnt work for me. Kakashi one on one or one on 2 or 3 swordsman would be great, but not this.

    ...What?

    Son, get some grammar. And in regards to your question, Its probable that he did wield the 'Twin' sword that Choujouro now has. It was one of the seven swords, and all of those guys now resurrected were members at the same time. So, It stands to reason that the one guy who has an unexplained absence of sword would have used the one sword who's location is also unexplained.

    Also, why is it called the twin sword? The sword works by using some kind of immaterial substance (chakra or water, I guess) that becomes a blade. Where is the twin in that? Eh, anyway, It is cool to see all of those badass guys together.

    Who is your favourite swordsman, eh? Imma say Zabuza, 'cause hes the most badass, but a close second is that guy who puts an axe in you, then fucking hammers it down all the way through. What a boss.

    Kakashi got trolled.

    But I actually liked this chapter. I try to block it out, but aren't those twin lightning swords straight from shitty anime filler? At least they got rid of the clown fodder swordsman.

    It's called the twin swords cuz there are two of them that look the same. In the anime it was a guy named Raiga who used those swords to channel lightning.

    Hiramekarei is a double-handled sword wielded by Chōjūrō. The Hiramekarei has two holes in the upper end of the blade that shoot out chakra, which can seemingly be formed into weapons such as a hammer.
    - Info by wikipedia.
    Maybe named twin from what's bolted?
    In anime filler Raiga Kurosuki had in his possession other sword named BOLT, he was also in mist version of ANBU (There were never confirmed if he was one of seven swordsman - it was only speculation). Also rinsimyaldee - there isn't officially said that he was owner of the "hammer" sword. It's only your speculation, I agree that this is the most likely. There are some cont-argument that isn't giving to this:
    1. We know from Suigetsu that the sword were inherited from master to aperrence, so why Mangetsu would choose Chojuro instead of his brother? - there is also the fact that he could just die without taking any student.
    2. All others in this generation was describe together with the sword that was in their possession, but Mangetsu was described as the master of "all seven swords" (possibility that as he was the last one to be described the sword was omitted).
    3. It's look like Seven Swordsman were operating in group. Why would there be scroll where all seven sword are kept. Why not just give all to individuals and order them to just carry their swords. Maybe it was done in case anyone from swordsman want to go leave village. Scroll with all swords is kept by leader and given only before the battle. (?) There are some interesting discussion topics.

    Suigetsu's brother was described as the master of all swords. Seeing as he had the scroll, he most likely trained in them all and they were his after the others passed away, et cetera. Twin was most likely his personal one.

    IMO Kuriarare Kushimaru and Honzuki Mangetsu are my favourites. First because he got mask and is mysterious and second because I just like his and his brother ability, bloodline limit or whatever it is that they can change into water.

    Kuriarare is boss. Actually threading your opponents and tying them together seems like wtfhax to me though. How would that work anyway? He'd have to let go of his sword to thread it through, and with how quick ninja are, theres no way he'd keep a hold of it. Eh.

    And the twin thing - yeah, its either the handles, the holes, or the shapes it makes. Take a pick, I guess. With Mangetsu there are a heap of things to consider. He operated under the 3rd Mizukage, so maybe thats when he was killed, and his sword taken by the Mist (most likely as a new mist nin has the sword). Mangetsu was called the 'Second Coming of the Demon', possibly after Zabuza. The village was called the Bloody Mist. Maybe he didn't give a shit about his brother, and Suigetsu is just being greedy as fuck and saying thats its his.

    And the master of all swords thing - Im thinking that he was some kind of commander or maybe the strongest. Its just another way of saying how boss he is. The scroll thing is just another example of ninja practicality losing out in favour of over dramatic, tactically unsound moves that make up the series.
