The Straw is a special item in Paper Mario: The Origami King. It is found in Shogun Studios at the Tranquil Pipes Teahouse. A red Shy Guy is inside, and gives Mario his Straw once talked to. The straw must be given to a Ninji outside a ninja training school, who needs a reed pipe to practice breathing while submerged. The Ninji thanks Mario by giving him the Shuriken.
