Information
Backround
Sakumo was the enemy of Chiyo's son. According to the Fourth Hokage, Sakumo was once respected more than the Legendary Three Ninjas before he fell into disgrace after choosing to save his comrades rather than complete a mission, causing Konohagakure to suffer in the war effort. This caused many people, including those he had saved, to hate him. Dishonored, Sakumo committed seppuku after deep depression and a drop in his skills, which caused Kakashi to lead his life strictly according to the Ninja code. Sakumo left his White Light Chakra Sabre, for which he was nicknamed, to Kakashi, which utilized chakra to produce a trail of white light from the blade when swung (the blade being the metaphorical "fang"). It was cut in half during a fight between Kakashi and an Iwagakure shinobi.
