Niten

Niten is the swordsmanship discipline devised by the first Dragon Clan Thunder, Mirumoto (see also Seven Thunders). It employs the simultaneous use of the katana and wakizashi, one in either hand.

Although Kakita's Iaijutsu is more popular and is often considered the empire's leading authority in swordsmanship, Niten maintains its applicability and contends admirably in combat.
