Hanzo stood atop Salamander Ibuse and took his chain sickle from a scroll.
The sickle was Hanzo's most comfortable weapon to wield. With the addition of the chain, it became even more flexible, and its attack range greatly increased.
He had once defeated Mifune, the famed genius samurai of the Land of Iron, with a single iaijutsu slash using his chain sickle.
