MIFUNE

The stoic, iron willed general of the Land of Iron who commands the independent samurai factions protecting the neutral summit grounds. Entirely eschewing traditional ninjutsu parameters, his absolute mastery over the katana manifests as blindingly fast iaido sword strokes that can sever a shinobi's hand signs before they can mold chakra. He uses his unvarnished martial speed to intercept high level execution loops, proving that traditional steel can match the kinetic output of elite elemental arts.
