Hagiri

Hagiri ( ハギリ ) was a friend of Tenma Izumo during their time in Konohagakure 's Academy .

## Background [ ]

Hagiri's mother and sister died during the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's Attack while he watched helplessly.

Despite being much younger than all of them, Itachi easily defeated them once a fight broke out.

## Trivia [ ]

- Written as 歯切り, "Hagiri" means "gnashing the teeth," which could allude to both his bullying nature and his grudge against Itachi.
