Rōnin is more than just a new codename for Clint Barton. It’s a new identity, a new form of existence in this world. 

Rōnin were criminals, operating as bandits and highwaymen, or joining organized crime in towns and cities. Many rōnin were known to operate or serve as hired muscle for gangs that ran gambling rings, brothels, protection rackets, and similar activities. Many were petty thieves and muggers. The criminal segment gave the rōnin a persistent reputation of disgrace, with an image of being thugs, bullies, cutthroats, and wandering vagrants.

The katanas wasn’t the main weapon of the samurai, it was a treasure witch was given from generation to generation. It was used for duels, ceremonies and the seppuku.

For the battlefield the samurai used weapons like the naginata, the kyoketsu shoge or the tetsubo. In times where the samurai couldn’t have ther weapons they used tools like the sai, witch was from rice farmers or jitte from the fishers.

A student said to his master:

“You teach me fighting, but you talk about peace. How do you reconcile the two?”

The master replied:

“it is better to be a warrior in a garden than to be a gardener in a war.”
