Name: Buin no suitton ken doton (Staff of water and earth
Appearance:
The staff is long and metalic, with a blade on each end.
Special Abilities: Near has the ability to apply the effect of either his water element or his Earth element to the staff. Thus, Near can lengthen the staff with water, turn it into a shield with earth, etc. Near carries this staff using his Kg's tattoo sealing method.
Origin: Near created this staff in the beggining of his dark arc. He started by making it with metal that reacts to his individual chakra. Near trained his kenjutsu ability a lot before making this staff, as having a weapon he did not have the ability to use would be pointless. Near trained for a long time on blending his chakra correctly into the metal. He also trained using his individual affinities in conjunction with his staff. Though he found it useful to use it with the Earth element, he found that it was much more useful to use it with his water element, which he had mastery of. Near created this weapon because he found that he could not rely on his Jutsu alone.
