Kōkinjō

The is a thick length of rope 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 draw out the soul of a person, by merely establishing direct contact with the intended target. 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 rope, 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, thus gaining immense chakra reserves, they alone were capable of wielding the treasures without fatal repercussions. Typically, Ginkaku would use the rope in order to tie the Benihisago around his neck for the purposes of transportation. However, when in combat, the cord is instead wrapped around an individual arm so that connecting with a victim can be accomplished easier.
