Hama Yumi

The Hama Yumi

A gigantic Yumi held 4/5ths away from the upper tip, with a length of close to 400 centimeters, nearly twice as long as the regular Yumi which is already a huge weapon.

This ceremonial bow was not built to be used for combat but rather to ward off demons through the pulling of the string without arrows: as the mere sound was said to be enough to scare evil. Jinmu took it up as part of his arsenal to aid in the warding off evil plaguing his mind body and soul.

Nevertheless, it is a mighty weapon of war. Due to its size the user has to fully stretch both arms out horizontally in order to draw at maximum power. (This requires 10 strength to accomplish) Doing this requires immense physical strength but in return nearly doubles the range, power and speed of arrows fired: when compared to a regular Yumi. Furthermore, thanks to its size it is capable of launching huge projectiles.

Appearance
Hama Yumi is wrapped in fine Rattan colored white and black. It also features long ribbons attached to the upper tip, showing the colors of Konoha.

Ability
Extreme range combat, turning the user into living artillery.
