Jinpachi Munashi

is a former member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

Appearance
Jinpachi wears a common Kirigakure-nin uniform, comprised from a vertically segmented long-sleeved shirt and black pants, accentuated by the presence of striped leg-warmers.

Abilities
As one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Jinpachi was one of the most powerful shinobi ever produced within Kirigakure. In fact, he belonged to the generation that was noted to be the strongest in the village's history. With his "explosion" sword, Homatsu, he intuitively combined expert swordsmanship with destructive explosions, due to the significant quantity of exploding tags incorporated into the 'bladed' edge. Once these tags detonate an integrated scroll deposits another set along the same edge, allowing the sword to be used consecutively. However, the capabilities of this weapon do not come without risk, as the user themselves can potentially be caught in the resultant blast but Jinpachi's skill is such that this does not occur.

Shinobi World War Arc
Jinpachi, along with the previous generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, were summoned by Pakura and Gari under Kabuto's Summoning: Impure World Resurrection technique in order to overwhelm the Third Division forces.

After effortlessly surviving a significant onslaught of various techniques from his aggressors, due to the relative invulnerability granted by the technique that revived him, Jinpachi obtains his former sword from Mangetsu Hōzuki. Moving onto the battlefield under the concealment of a thick mist, Jinpachi confronts several shinobi simultaneously, managing to defend against the assault of three opponents with a single robust swing which consequently activates the numerous Exploding Tags that line the edge of Homatsu. Elegantly moving away from the resultant explosion, Jinpachi continues on his path of destruction.

Trivia

 * means "great eight", and roughly means "empty Asian pear tree"; like all members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, his surname is derived from a type of produce.
