Japanese martial artist (5)

I believe the answer is:

ninja

(Other definitions for ninja that I've seen before include "14th-century Japanese soldier of fortune" , "Ninjutsu expert" , "Old professional Japanese assassin" , "Japanese stealth fighter" , "Stealthy Japanese fighter" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
