It belonged to Sakumo Hatake, the Konoha ninja known as the White Fang, and the nickname comes precisely from his weapon's glow in battle. The glow depends on the chakra of whoever wields it: without training, it is a tantō like any other. His son Kakashi carries it on his back in his youth, when he does not yet have the Sharingan and fights with a mix of speed, kunai and this short blade.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-239","pos":239},{"h":"Sakumo's story","t":"Sakumo was so feared that his name was said to overshadow the Sannin's. During a decisive mission he chose to abandon the objective to save his comrades, and that decision cost him dearly: the village and the very people he rescued blamed him for the failure, his reputation collapsed and he ended up taking his own life. Kakashi, still a boy, reacted by clinging to the rules like a shield. The sabre he inherited does not pass on his father's fame or style, but it does carry that story, which Kakashi Gaiden brings to the foreground.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-241","pos":241},{"h":"In the Gaiden","t":"On the Gaiden's mission, set in the Third Great Ninja War, Kakashi carries the sabre and uses it against the Iwagakure ninja. In the clash with Kakkō, an Iwa swordsman, the blade breaks, and that loss coincides with the biggest change in Kakashi's life: Obito is crushed by a boulder and gives him his Sharingan. From then on, the boy who swore by the rules begins to value his comrades, as his father would have done. After that stage the sabre no longer appears as his usual weapon.","lvl":0,"ch":"naruto-244","pos":244},{"h":"Father and son","t":"The relationship between Kakashi and his father's legacy returns in Part II. In the Sasori arc, Granny Chiyo, who lost family to Sakumo, sees Kakashi and for a moment mistakes him for the White Fang, so alike are they. And during Pain's attack, Kakashi falls and reaches a kind of waystation where Sakumo is waiting, who asks him to tell him about his life. Hearing that his son understood why he chose his comrades, Sakumo is freed from his guilt. Kakashi, for his part, returns to the world of the living.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-449","pos":449},{"h":"Trivia","t":"In the manga the sabre never returns after breaking, but the anime repairs it: in the filler episodes about his ANBU days, Kakashi still uses it on missions. In the film The Will of Fire it appears sheathed among his belongings, a detail at odds with its destruction in the Gaiden. Its Japanese name means “white light chakra sabre”, though most fans know it simply as the White Fang's sabre, after Sakumo's nickname.","lvl":1,"ep":"shippuden-349","pos":607}],"characters":["sakumo","kakashi"],"related":["hatake","taijutsu"],"reference":"Naruto, chapters 239–244 (Kakashi Gaiden).","sources":[{"title":"Kakashi: el Sharingan recibido y la enseñanza del Chidori","url":"https://naruto-official.com/en/news/01_1903"}],"figures":[]}
