Abilities
As the leader of the, Kirigakure's elite force, Hisha was considered to be one of the village's strongest shinobi. He was mighty enough to kill, renown for mastering all seven swords of the , as well as defeat the Third Mizukage in one-on-one combat (albeit the latter was in a severely weakened state after being released from 's genjutsu). Additionally, he was able to stand up to the in direct combat, for a sustained period, and even permanently scar one of its eyes. Though he would eventually perish in that battle, it was enough to send the Three-Tails into permanent hiding, until it was captured by the many years later.

Hisha's reserves were great enough to reside in the Third Mizukage's  while resisting the  surrounding it. , who had served under Hisha during the coup, would later instinctively compare the latter's chakra reserves to 's, whom he encountered some years after Hisha's passing.

Water Release
Hisha's mastery over Water Release was world-renowned, and contributed a lot to the terrifying image of hunter-nin even today. It was said that in the vicinity of large bodies of water, Hisha was essentially unbeatable, even by standards.

He often utilized the, however, to start fires in order to distract guards or his opponents.

Boil Release
Hisha's most prominent ability was his,. In the same manner his niece, he could freely manipulate its acidity and other properties. Unlike her, however, Hisha was shown to have much greater control over it, even able to manipulate the spread of the gas to some degree.

Using his kekkei genkai, Hisha could, vastly increasing his physical strength and speed to power up his taijutsu. This would also emit an incredibly hot cloud of vapor around his body, severely burning anyone standing close to Hisha and powering up his close combat even further. He could also manipulate this cloud to have corrosive properties, like other Boil Release techniques. Releasing his chakra as steam also meant Hisha's skin was permanently covered in moisture, which had the side-effect that he could corrode away almost any material just by touching it.

In general, Hisha's kekkei genkai allow him to apply corrosive properties and extreme heat to any technique he uses. Notable ones include: the, turning its designed utility usage into a deadly area of effect, firing of corrosive or burning water,  melting everything that passes through it and many more. During the coup, Hisha made use of manipulated to grapple opponents before dissolving into acid, killing them or wounding them greatly.
