[Discussion] The Shakujō, A New Weapon

[NarutoUzumakiMinato]

This discussion/theory is about Naruto's new weapon

The Shakujō, a Buddhist ringed staff which is meant to be used in prayer,
but can also be effectively employed as a weapon.

First i would like to give more info about the Shakujo
(All of which i found on Sage of the Six Paths - Narutopedia, the Naruto Wiki)
In Japan the Shakujō became a formidable weapon in the hands of a practiced Buddhist monk. It could be used as a staff to block and parry attacks and the metal rings at the tip could be slammed into an opponent's face to momentarily blind him. At the very tip of the metal finial is a sharp point which can be used to attack weak points of the body. The bottom end of the Shakujō has a metal butt which can be used to thrust and hit an opponent. An opponent's weapons can also be easily deflect with the use of The Shakujō.

I believe this Staff can greatly help Naruto fight Sasuke, the metal rings
can cause momentary blindness which Naruto can use if Sasuke EMS becomes
too much of a problem. The Shakujō is said to easily deflect an opponents
weapon, and Sasuke has come into possesion a sword that cannot be block
but only deflected

Naruto believes in Love and Peace, the same values and beliefs shared by
monks, So to say the least Naruto more than fits the description and style
of a monk who might carry/use this staff

Naruto has already become a Sage or Monk and may have collected the
Yasakani Jewel, the necklace the Rikudou Sennin wore, which according
to Japanese legend gives the one wearing it protection from kami or god

Sasuke too has collected two of the Rikudou Sennin weapons Kusanagi Sword and the Yata Mirror which he gained from Itachi

So what does everyone think of Naruto gaining The Shakujō

It would be good for Naruto to have this sort of weapon but how would he get it ?

That is a good question.....maybe one of his Uzumaki ancestors may have
come into possesion of the Shakujō and upon meeting him/her they will
see how great the will of fire has become inside Naruto or the fact that he
has gained control over the Kyuubi and has gained the Rikudou Sennin's
seal and Yasakani Jewel he/she will see that Naruto is the true owner of the Shakujō

Where exactly does the Manga say anything at all about Sasuke getting the Kusanagi Sword and the Yata Mirror from Itachi?

Once he gained Itachi's eyes didnt he obtain Itachi's powers....unless the
gift that Itachi gave Naruto was the Sword and Mirror and if thats the case
then that means Naruto could have three of the Rikudou Sennin's items and
that only justifies my theory of Naruto gaining the last item

I dont believe sasuke obtaining EMS gives him the sword and shield that itachi collected. Also Itachi could not have given naruto the sword and mirror because he uses them against sasuke which happens after the gift is given to naruto.

Only time Ninjas carry such a weapon is when their disguise as Monks, It's not a weapon you can concealed. Most Ninjas prefer to carry Daggers and Swords as their main weapons, shuriken and other small weapons as back up and diversion weapons.

Then where would the Sword and Mirror have gone?? Maybe Itachi wanted a
fail safe just incase Sasuke did go to the Dark Side and knew that if Sasuke
took his eyes then the Sword and Mirror would greatly help Naruto in fighting
Sasuke besides arent the Sword and Mirror more of an ethreal weapon meaning
that they are based off a chakra amount?? And if thats the case then maybe
Itachi gave Naruto most of the Sword and Mirror and only left himself enough
to seal away Oro...Also Naruto has already gained the body of the Rikudou Sennin
and upon gaining The Sword, Mirror, Necklace, and Staff then that would make him
the true Rikudou Naruto

The Rikudou Sennin wasn't worried about disguises, Why would Naruto need
to conceal his weapon?? Naruto has never been the type to be very secretive
he has always been the loud/tricky type of fighter

Naruto personality is not like Hercules who carry a club, Naruto with His wind power is as in the up coming new movie a small sword or small dagger type, so He can use the wind element in Him to extend the range and damage of wind Element to its fullest extent. Naruto is more the dagger type.

[Faith]

I like this idea of Naruto getting a new weapon
because he been using kunai for too long haha xD

anyway..maybe after hearing his mother story about his clan etc..etc
maybe he will go back to his clan country or something ?
and maybe he met some elderly people and they will see the logo of uzumaki on naruto cloths then all the talking will start :D

A staff is nothing like a club....a staff is considerably lighter than a club
and yes Naruto has the Wind element which means he is good at short-to-mid
range attacks and this Staff is perfert for that

Exactly....im not sure how he would get it but its unlikey that the Uzumaki
clan has come into possesion of the Shakujō, and have been passing it down
from generation to generation and upon seeing Naruto's Seal and the Necklace
(If he has the Necklace)
