The linear motion and force applied to draw the sword from the scabbard results in slashes that are faster and stronger than ones executed with the sword already drawn. The speed at which these techniques can be executed — the initial strike in particular — is such, that when performed by a skilled user, it can prevent enemy shinobi from forming [[hand seals]] (and thus [[ninjutsu]]), by exploiting the small opening that these movements create. This makes them highly effective against most shinobi and potentially, those of even [[Hanzō]]'s calibre, if performed by one who has mastered the style, such as [[Mifune]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 531, page 13</ref> == References == <references/> {{DEFAULTSORT:Iaido}} [[es:Iaidō]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
