Techniques
Other than Kigenko, Karuse is more or less the most skilled member of the Black Water Mist Family. His skillset however is far different than even Kigenko's. As a puppetmaster, Karuse's abilities are mostly limited to his puppet, but utilizing his puppet to near perfection is a huge advantage for him, over most as he can fight from mid to long range.
