Description: The Raijin's Gauntlet is a special gauntlet that was designed by Minato Namikaze himself in order to increase and polish his strategy in Ninjutsu and Hiraishin Jutsu. The Gauntlet is a regular steel Gauntlet which consist of a foldable hidden cross bow on it such that when it is worn on the hands, the Crossbow is hidden under the wrist of the user. This Crossbow is fed mini bolts on each Gauntlet that are made out of materials that are used to manufacture kunais.
Abilities:
The general ability of this crossbow is that the crossbow can send normal or Seal marked (FTG) bolts like a freeform Kunai throw. The Crossbow can send tiny bolt infused with raw chakra like a regular kunai or infuse them with one of the basic five elemental chakras to improve the effect it has on the target like Infusing it with wind to increase sharpness, Lightning to increase piercing power, Fire to burns, earth to harden, etc. Releasing normal or "Infused" bolt(s) comes under freeform attack, like a freeform "infused" Kunai throw.
First Ability:
The first one is that when the infused bolts are released towards the target, the user can perform a single special hand seal ( Like Deidara's "Katsu" ) in order to make the Bolts blast to create a short ranged explosion of the desired element. The explosion will be A ranked in strength and this ability can only be used three times per battle. This counts towards the user's jutsu per turn limit.
Second Ability:
The second ability is the user is able to attach ninja wire/strings to the tail of the bolts while they are released . While these strings are normally A ranked ninjutsu in strength, they are very sharp so that they can slice through or severe a human flesh with ease. The user can use these wire attached bolts(s) to bind the opponent, constricting the movement of any part of the body and pin them to any surface or the ground with the bolt acting as the anchor point fixing itself to the ground/surface. The user can anchor the bolt to any surface/sentinel object as a means to pull himself up ( For example, The user can anchor the bolt to a tree/ground near a swamp to get out of it) . The Wire is A ranked in strength however when these wires are attached to elemental infused bolts they are of A ranked in strength of that particular element and follows elemental strength and weakness. The elemental wires when severing the opponent or impaling through them produces the effects of their particular element. This second ability can be used only 4 times per battle and consumes one jutsu slot. Only one the ability can be used at a time and never both combined. Meaning if the users sends an elemental bolts with wire attached, the user can only use the second ability and cannot make the bolt blast up to create the effect of the first ability.
The Gauntlets are very strong and virtually indestructible but this doesn't mean they can defend against anything and everything. The weapon is chakra sensitive hence when someone else wears it, the gauntlet releases S ranked spikes from within it impaling and severing the hands of the person who used it.
Restrictions:
