Flying Thunder God Kunai

Item from Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto

Three-pronged kunai inscribed with Minato's space-time formula. Wherever this kunai exists, Minato can teleport to instantly — the foundation of his legendary speed.

Minato scattered these kunai across battlefields before engaging, transforming the entire combat zone into his personal teleportation grid. During the Third Ninja War, he gave one to every member of his squad and wiped out fifty Iwagakure ninja by teleporting between the kunai faster than anyone could react. The kunai themselves are effective weapons even without the teleportation — the three-pronged design excels at catching and deflecting other blades. Naruto inherited his father's kunai, and Minato left one with Kushina as a protective measure.

Appearance

A distinctive three-pronged kunai with a thicker handle than standard issue. The space-time seal formula is inscribed on the handle in small, precise characters. The extra prongs make it effective for parrying in close combat.

Also known as: Flying Thunder God Kunai, Hiraishin Kunai, Three-Pronged Kunai
