Reader's Guide
The Totsuka Blade is a sealing sword that Itachi Uchiha wields through his Susanoo. It appears twice: in Itachi's final battle with Sasuke, where it seals Orochimaru, and during the Fourth Great Ninja War, where the reanimated Itachi pierces Nagato with it and seals him. Itachi's ability to summon and wield the Totsuka Blade is tied to his Susanoo, which he manifests using his Mangekyo Sharingan.
