"Are you kidding me?"

Upon realizing he couldn't escape, Kyosuke immediately became a lot more obedient.

Sage chakra is incredibly powerful, and learning it would make one reach the peak of strength instantly.

Unfortunately, it's like nuclear energy—without chakra and physical strength at the level of an kage–level Shinobi, the only result from attempting to use it would be death.

As an artificial human, Mitsuki, who had mastered a weakened version of the Sage Mode through Orochimaru's cursed seal, found his body collapsing shortly after activating it.

Orochimaru, with his mastery over clone technology, used all his resources to barely restore Mitsuki's body to its original state.

The last time he had experienced such despair was when he had dealt with the terminally ill Kimimaro.

Unless he used an Orochimaru version of the cursed seal, Kyosuke wouldn't be able to absorb natural energy in the short term.

The snake lady who attacked him earlier, whose name was likely Tagorihime, was one of the three great leaders of the Ryuchi cave.

Her real strength was hard to gauge, but it was clear she wasn't weak.

Not to mention, just dealing with her Jutsu, "Inorganic Reanimation", would overwhelm Kyosuke.

If possible, it would be best to avoid fighting and try to reach a peaceful resolution.

In the worst-case scenario, maybe he could just give up the Kusanagi sword?

Kyosuke used his shadow clones to move forward along the cave. Suddenly, an ancient voice echoed in his mind.

"A curious little brat, come to me."

As soon as the words were spoken, the surrounding environment rapidly began to shift.

Kyosuke hadn't moved a step, but by the time the mist cleared, he found himself in a massive cave.

The shadow clones that were in ambush disappeared, and the kunai with Flying Thunder God technique that he had left along the way had also vanished.

At this moment, he had no way to solve the problem except to face the threat directly.

Taking a deep breath, he scanned the cave and the group of young women's present, eventually locking eyes with the giant white phosphorus snake seated on a high platform.

"You filthy human brat," someone glared at him.

Tagorihime, a beautiful woman with green hair and a crown on her head, looked at him with disdain.

Anyone would be surprised to know that under her human form, she actually had a snake's body.

Having seen her in her true form, Kyosuke couldn't help but feel uncomfortable whenever he saw her in this form.

In contrast, the other snake lady looked much more normal.

"Enough noise," spoke a young-looking girl with long dark blue hair and a striking appearance.

Despite her youth, the energy she radiated was far more deadly than the others.

This was Ichikishimahime, a name given to her by the White Snake Sage.

"White Snake Sage, we've brought the intruder here," the blue-haired snake lady said before stepping aside without even looking at Kyosuke.

"Human," the White Snake Sage spoke, "What is it that brings you to my Ryūchi cave?"

Kyosuke turned his head and was surprised to find that the towering white phosphorus snake was gone.

Instead, on the high platform, there was an elderly woman leaning on a cane, staring coldly at him.

The old woman, dressed in a white robe, smiled, but it sent a chilling sense of danger to Kyosuke, as though he were prey being eyed.

Sticking to the principle of being honest and low-key, Kyosuke calmly spoke, "I came here following the map's instructions and didn't mean to intrude. Please forgive me."

"Map?"

"That's right."

Kyosuke pulled out the troublesome treasure map from his clothes.

Sensing the energy around him, he casually let go, and the map floated towards the old woman's hand.

Observing this, Kyosuke noticed that compared to the toads of Mount Myoboku, these snake ladies seemed more adept at utilizing external natural energy.

"The Kusanagi Sword," the old woman muttered, thinking for a moment.

"Do we have something like that in our cave?"

At that moment, the third snake lady, Tagitsuhime, spoke up. "Report, White Snake Sage. Eight hundred years ago, one of the Kusanagi swords did fall into our hands."

"Oh, now I remember."

The old woman recalled with a hint of nostalgia, adding, "I recall someone trying to steal it back then, didn't they?"

"Yes, but they were personally repelled by you."

"Hmph, an ungrateful little brat, trying to cause trouble in my domain. If it weren't for his father..."

The old woman suddenly went silent for a while before turning her gaze to Kyosuke.

"The little brat back then couldn't take it, but now you, his descendant, have come to fulfill his wish?"

"Ancestor?"

Kyosuke hesitated before asking, "That little brat you mentioned..."

"I think his name was Indra."

Kyosuke nearly choked on his own breath.

His current mood is probably similar to how Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji felt when they defeated Kakuzu, only for him to claim he once battled the First Hokage.

Whether it was true or not, it certainly sounded impressive.

What a clueless Indra, White Snake Granny really knows how to make you act all high and mighty.

Despite his chaotic thoughts, Kyosuke maintained a respectful demeanor.

"No, that's not the case. I just happened to obtain the map from the Land of Whirlpool."

"Oh? Whirlpool? A branch of the ninja clan, one of Ashura's descendants," the old woman sneered.

"That little brat doesn't have much charm."

Now, another "unpleasant" Ashura appears.

You're the boss, so do as you please.

Laughing at herself for a while, the old woman waved her hand lightly.

When Kyosuke looked again, she was holding a long sword, sheathed, but it radiated an aura of antiquity.

Its form was similar to Sasuke's sword, but this one seemed to carry the burden of time.

Having caught Indra's interest, the sword must have some special power besides transmitting chakra.

"Do you want it?" the White Snake Sage grinned.

"It's not impossible, but you should know, anyone who enters my Ryūchi cave must pass a test."

"If you pass, we can negotiate, but if you fail, you'll have to choose one of my three daughters... and see which one you'd like to end up inside."

"Uh."

Kyosuke blinked, carefully asking, "What kind of test?"

"Tagorihime, is that place still there, right?"

"It is," Tagorihime replied.

She stepped forward and handed Kyosuke a detailed map of the ninja world.

"Three years ago, a group of people kidnapped children from this cave."

"Due to an agreement, we can't leave. Find the children, and this Kusanagi Sword is yours."

After quickly explaining the mission, Tagorihime returned to the side, clearly uninterested in any further contact with him.

She also handed him a scroll for a contract.

"Write your name, and you'll earn the trust of the children."

"Oh"

Kyosuke obediently signed the contract. He knew he didn't have the option to refuse.

"Once you succeed, we will reverse summon you back."

With that, Kyosuke suddenly found himself outside the Ryuchi cave.

Inside the cave, the White Snake Sage was deep in thought, using her powers to peer into the boy's future.
