They differ from a standard kunai in that they have three blades instead of one and on the handle (which is thicker than normal) is the "marker" for Minato's teleportation ability; Minato also said that these blades are bit heavier than a normal kunai.<ref name="chpt239">''Naruto'' chapter 239, page 8</ref> The prongs on them also makes it more deadly in melee fighting. Minato gave one of these kunai to his pupil [[Kakashi Hatake]], as a celebratory gift for his promotion to [[jōnin]] as well as to be able to teleport to his team at any time the kunai was thrown.<ref name="chpt239"/><ref>''Naruto'' chapter 244, page 15</ref> During the [[Third Shinobi World War]], in the battle between [[Konohagakure]] and [[Iwagakure]], the [[Hamaki Mimura|ninja]] from the former threw these kunai behind enemy lines which allowed Minato to instantly teleport to the various locations and slay the opposing shinobi, while at the same time making it difficult for the enemy to predict where he would teleport to next.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 242, pages 4-5</ref> He also kept several of these blades at [[Minato's Safe House|his safe house]], so he could teleport there quickly when necessary.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 501, pages 6, 15-17</ref> == Trivia == * It is implied that touching the kunai activates a Space–Time Ninjutsu, like Minato did to the Nine-Tails' [[Tailed Beast Ball|attack]] with a [[Space–Time Barrier]] after using hand-signs. * Although unnamed in the manga, they were named by Minato in ''[[Naruto Shippūden 4: The Lost Tower]]''. == References == <references/> [[de:Hiraishin-Kunai]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
