Laser-guided sword

Divebomb is good at a lot of things. Bringing the rain. Building nests. Being an arm. Stealing other guys' names. But what he apparently isn't very good at is swordfighting, because he needs a laser-guided sword. Using a laser beam in its tip, the sword locks on a target and guides itself into it, basically doing all of Divebomb's work for him.
