Bashōsen

The is a large fan that was said to have once belonged to the Sage of the Six Paths himself, and has later come to be revered as one of the Five Ultimate Treasures. The item itself exhibits the unusual ability to generate all five of the basic elemental chakra natures, requiring only a simple waving motion and mental command to create a substantial amount of the desired element. However, as with the other four treasures, its usage consumes an enormous amount of chakra, so much so that any normal human would die after only a short period.

The fan, along with three of the other treasures, was eventually gathered together by Kumogakure, where they came into the possession of the Gold and Silver Brothers. As the siblings possessed a portion of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's chakra as well as immense natural chakra reserves, they alone were capable of wielding the treasures without fatal repercussions. When not in use, Kinkaku had a tendency to store the weapon within himself, drawing it from his own mouth when needed.
