Madara's weapons and tools
chakra receiver
These mysterious black rods were first seen being used by Nagato, the leader of Akatsuki. They were embedded into the bodies of his Six Paths of Pain which allowed him to manipulate said bodies by transmitting his chakra to them from the rods which had been embedded into his own body by the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path when he summoned it during his battle with Hanzō of the Salamander. Nagato used these not only for this supplementary purpose but also as weapons which, when used to pierce the enemy, disrupted their chakra flow by injecting them with his own. Through this means he also attempted to take control of a living body. The rods were originally used by Madara Uchiha, who imbued his will into at least one of them, which he left protruding from the navel of Hashirama Senju's living clone. During the process of saving Obito Uchiha's life as well, Madara inserted some of these rods into his body, which he later used as a fail safe attempt to revive himself with the Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique. The results of which covers the target's body in black matter. Obito Uchiha later made use of these rods in the form of giant stakes to incapacitate larger targets and bombard opponents with overwhelming attacks.
gunbai
A Gunbai (軍配; Literally meaning "army arrangement") or gunbai uchiwa (軍配団扇; Literally meaning "army arrangement fan") is a non-folding fan, usually made of wood. It was used in ancient Japan by samurai officers to communicate with their troops. Nowadays, it is used by referees of professional sumō matches.
Madara Uchiha during his lifetime was famed for the use of this fan in battle. Obito Uchiha would later wield this fan while posing as the legendary Uchiha, before returning it to his reincarnated ancestor during the Fourth Shinobi World War. It is a wide fan with tomoe on it and has a long handle with bandages wrapped around the base, as well as having a long chain attached to it. In the past, when Madara used it, it was brown with a black border, with red tomoe, and a chain was attached to the handle that appears to have been connected to his kama. When Obito started using it, it was depicted as having a purple tint with a black border, and tomoe design on it, with the chain appearing to enter his sleeve. During the Third Shinobi World War it was seen hanging on a wall inside the caverns of the Mountains' Graveyard.
Obito wielded the gunbai predominantly like a flail using the chain attached to guide the fan which he can use also as a shield because of its durability, as it was able to block Naruto's Super Mini-Tailed Beast Ball without receiving any noticeable damage. Madara also wielded it, both as a shield and as a mace in conjunction with his kama, and it also allowed him to perform various techniques.

kama
A kama is a Japanese sickle used as a weapon. It has a short handle and a pointed beak with a sharp cutting edge that inflicts damage. There is also a variation of the kama, a kusarigama, which has a chain attached to it for increasing its attack range.
Unlike its traditional intended use, the kama has been most commonly observed being employed by shinobi as a throwing weapon rather than in close combat, where the entire weapon is tossed in such a manner that it rotates quickly end over end, to increase the probability that the bladed edge will strike its intended target.

SWORD
A sword is a long, bladed weapon used for combat. While most swords in Naruto are traditional Japanese katana, tantō, or ninjatō, swords used by main characters tend to bear little resemblance to real-life weapons, as is the case with the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist's swords. Other swords that have been introduced in the series have mystical or special powers, including Orochimaru's Sword of Kusanagi and the Sword of Totsuka as wielded by Itachi Uchiha's Susanoo.
Most shinobi appear to have a preference towards long and wide blades while some ninja like Tenten use shorter swords, mainly for throwing them long-range. Of note are the samurai of the Land of Iron who are nearly all seen with swords, and the shinobi of the Land of Lightning which boasts a visible majority carrying them. A sword noted for belonging to a particular wielder is known as a Meitō (名刀; Literally meaning "Famous/Excellent Sword").
Certain foreign countries use more westernised types of swords, such as the kingdom of the Land of the Moon's military use sabers while Shion's guards in the Land of Demons wield gladius.
