A dark close up portrait of an old man wearing a dark green ninja cowl that completely covers his head, neck, and lower face, with heavy face wrinkles, bushy grey eyebrows, and wrinkled skin around his eyes, dark eyes with one eyebrow tilted upward like an absolute gigachade. He is performing a bare-handed sword catch, both of his flat hands clapped tightly together in a praying gesture, clamping a long bare metal blade edge directly between his open palms to stop a descending strike from above. The sharp silver metallic blade steel extends infinitely out of frame, sliced cleanly past the top and bottom edges of the image container. Only the endless vertical steel of the blade is visible running continuously down between his flat pressed hands; there is no tip, no point, no hilt, no handle, and no guard anywhere in the frame. Set in an intensely dark atmospheric background with deep negative space shadow voids, heavy directional cel-shaded crisp line art, with visible manga sketch marks, halftone with retro bloom casting onto his cowl, pitch black background, 90s anime style.
