Changes: Iron Sand

Revision as of 19:16, 31 July 2015

Iron Sand (砂鉄, Satetsu, literally meaning: Sand Iron), is the weapon used by the Third Kazekage, in combination with his special ability to convert chakra into magnetic forces. When imitating the sand techniques of Shukaku's jinchūriki, he used iron powder instead, thanks to his special magnetic powers. He often moulded the iron powder into weapons and used them as his main mode of attack.

When used in sufficient quantities, this iron powder can be equipped into a diverse number of ways, in which Sasori took full advantage of through the use of his puppet of the Third Kazekage. In order to create useful techniques ranging from large structures to bullet-like particles and multiple striking branches.

The Iron Sand can also clot up the joints of puppets, making them unusable in battle^[1] as long as the Third Kazekage's magnetic field is in effect, even bypassing a Chakra Shield. Chiyo referred to this technique as the most feared weapon in the history of Sunagakure.^[2] After Sasori turned the Third Kazekage into a human puppet, he too became a user of the Iron Sand.

Utilised Techniques

Trivia

When Sasori made the Kazekage into a puppet, he drenched the sand in poison, making it more lethal in battle.
Magnetite, the main component of Iron Sand, is about 2 times denser than silica, which is the main component of sand, while gold is about 3.7 times denser than magnetite.
In Boruto: Naruto the Movie, Shinki wears a dark cloak made with Iron Sand.
