What is Orochimaru's sword called?

Orochimaru, a prominent character in the Naruto series, wields a sword known as "Kusanagi." Kusanagi is a legendary sword in Japanese mythology and folklore, often associated with the gods.

In Orochimaru's case, his Kusanagi is a unique sword with a snake motif, reflecting his serpentine theme. The sword has a curved, single-edged blade and a hilt adorned with a snake's head. Orochimaru's affinity for snakes is further highlighted by the sword's abilities, as it can extend and transform into a serpent-like form.

The Kusanagi sword is a symbol of power and is often linked to Orochimaru's quest for immortality and his pursuit of forbidden knowledge. It plays a significant role in his combat style and serves as an extension of his snake-themed abilities and techniques.
