The Battle to Rescue Princess Tobirama (2)

If they had been Senju shinobi with plenty of experience fighting the Uchiha, they might have known about Izanagi, the Forbidden Jutsu that twisted reality.

They might have been more cautious and checked Chiri's corpse.

Unfortunately, the First Raikage didn't know.

Or even if he had known, he might not have believed that a Uchiha girl barely in her teens could master a Forbidden Jutsu of that caliber.

After all, Izanagi wasn't something just anyone could master. Less than one-tenth of the entire Uchiha Clan could use it.

Still, the First Raikage was not to be underestimated.

The instant Chiri's kunai pierced him, he forcibly twisted his body. Using his advantage in speed and strength, he managed to make the kunai pass right beside his heart instead of piercing it.

The human body was a strange thing.

Both fragile and remarkably resilient.

Sometimes a minor wound to a vital organ could kill someone on the spot. Other times, they could be stabbed eighteen times and still be full of life.

That was especially true for a powerhouse like the First Raikage. As long as his heart and other vital areas weren't damaged, even being stabbed through by a kunai wasn't a big problem.

The wounded First Raikage immediately counterattacked.

His greatsword swung back, tracing a silver arc as it instantly severed Chiri's right hand.

But Chiri didn't retreat an inch. She drew a kunai with her left hand and stabbed again at his neck.

The First Raikage was forced to retreat and dodge, then kicked Uchiha Chiri away.

He touched the small cut on his neck, still shaken and wary. If that kunai had gone a few centimeters deeper, he would have had his throat slit and died on the spot.

Damn it!

Was this woman completely unafraid of death?
