Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

“Be careful… the beings that live here can not be considered people…”

Naruto held both of his hands behind his back and muttered, “Kabuto-nii-chan, now you are just scaring us… This Ryuchi Cave obviously looks like a house… even if it is located in such an isolated place, it is a house nonetheless… and who else will live in a house other than humans?”

Kabuto smiled slightly and without trying to explain anything he went straight towards the gate of the Ryuchi Cave…

Both Naruto and Hinata closely followed behind Kabuto, and because Naruto kept asking about one thing or the other, as a result of which Kabuto’s nervousness was eased a lot…

That’s right, Kabuto is highly nervous at this time and his heart is not at all as calm as it may seem on the surface. It was at the moment when he saw the Kanji Characters making up ‘Ry–uchido’ that the nervousness in his heart even surpassed Hinata and Naruto… because, unlike the two ignorant kids, Kabuto knows what this place truly is…

It’s the legendary Ryuchi Cave!

One of the three big unexplored regions in the Shinobi World, and one of the only three known places in the Shinobi World where one can get formal training in Sennin Mode… But that’s only the surface of Ryuchi Cave and what’s known to the outside world… The true depths of this place are a big mystery… and Kabuto knows next to nothing about it… however, there is one thing Kabuto understand very well… and it is the fact that even Orochimaru doesn’t dare to casually set foot at this place… therefore, Kabuto was highly vigilant as he took further steps.

Stepping on the broad steps, the three of them walked step by step towards the gate of the Ryuchi Cave… compared to the towering gate, Kabuto, Naruto, and Hinata were like ants…

As he was passing through the gate, Naruto couldn’t help but open his mouth with an astounded expression, “What a giant door…!”

Hinata was also surprised, even if she is the supposed heiress of the Hyuga Clan, Hinata has never once seen such a magnificent entrance…

After passing through the giant gate which for some reason was open, the three of them walked through a long passage, climbed hundreds of stairs, and finally came across something that looked like a stone bed…

On the stone bed lay an old woman dressed in a white robe, she glanced at the three people one by one… After a momentary glance at Kabuto, the old woman shifted her gaze to young Hinata and looked at her with a slight smile, she finally glanced in the direction of Naruto and said, “Well, we have some odd guests here… a lost person and two children?”

Kabuto took a step forward, and while bowing respectfully to the old woman, he asked, “Are you… the White Snake Sage?”

The old woman on the stone bed squinted her eyes slightly and nodded, “Uh-huh.”

As soon as she nodded, Kabuto showed her the small white snake… “This snake was given to me by Orochimaru-sama…”

“I see…” White Snake Sage nodded slightly, then questioned, “And I wonder why the three of you are here…?”

At this time, Naruto directly approached the White Snake Sage, and while deeply staring at her, he asked, “Obachan, are you a Sennin?! Can you teach me Senjutsu?”

White Snake Sage squinted at Naruto and said with a strange smile, “If you wish to learn Senjutsu, then you must first pass one of my tests…”

Before Naruto could agree, his mouth was hurriedly covered, and he was pulled back by Kabuto…

The White Snake Sage in front of them looks like a kind old woman who is harmless to children… but Kabuto knew her true face very well… In reality, this old woman is a millennium-old monster who has mastered Senjutsu and has been ruling over the snakes of the Ryuchi Cave for several Centuries… so she is definitely not someone to whom one can be disrespectful…

So, while keeping Naruto silent, Kabuto apologized for the kid’s rude behaviour and then politely asked… “To learn Senjutsu do we need to pass some sort of test? Want kind of test, is it? And what are the contents of the test?”

The White Snake Sage didn’t care about Kabuto’s cautiousness, she kept looking at Naruto and answered, “In the depths of the Ryuchi Cave, a giant snake named Garaga resides… He has an aggressive temper and is prone to his violent outbursts are a nuisance for me… So long as you bring me Garaga’s reverse scale and tone down his temper, you will pass the test and you will be taught Senjutsu…”

Naruto immediately cheered in excitement, “I just have to bring the reverse scale of a snake? It doesn’t sound too difficult…”

“Don’t be an idiot Naruto!” Kabuto scolded the blonde-haired kid with tick marks on his forehead… and then said to White Snake Sage, “If this snake named Garaga can be a nuisance even to the legendary White Snake Sage… I am afraid there is hardly anything we can do about him… isn’t there something else we can do to pass the test?”

“Hahaha…” The old lady chuckled lightly, then shook her head, “This is the only test I have for you people… If either of you wishes to learn Senjutsu from the Ryuchi Cave, then that person must first pass this test…”

Kabuto nodded with a troubled expression…

White Snake Sage has already stated the content of the test, even if he doesn’t like the content of the test, Kabuto doesn’t have the guts to negotiate or bargain with her…

Before stepping inside the Ryuchi Cave, Kabuto had expected that the learning process of Senjutsu would be that easy and smooth… but only now did he understand how difficult it is…

Being Orochimaru’s subordinate, Kabuto knows Manda, who is considered one of the strongest snakes in the entire Shinobi World… and if this Garaga is troublesome enough to even make the White Snake Sage feel a headache, then his strength is definitely not weaker than Manda.

To tone down a snake on the level of Manda? This is not something they can manage with their strength!

Kabuto understands that if they wish to complete the trial, then they would at least require strength on the level of someone like Orochimaru… otherwise, it would mean straight death… and he has no early death wish… But at the same time, Kabuto also doesn’t know if he will get another chance to learn Senjutsu… therefore, he was hesitating a little…

While Kabuto was weighing whether to accept the test of White Snake Sage, Naruto had already asked the direction of Garaga’s lair and was on his way there in a swaggering manner.

‘How powerful can a snake be that has caused a headache for an old Obachan…?’ was the thought in Naruto’s mind, and things like catching snakes and catching fishes… he has done countless times while he used to play alone in the forests around the Konoha Village… Therefore, Naruto didn’t think all that much and quickly went towards Garaga’s layer in order to retrieve his Reverse Scale, so that he can learn Senjutsu.

Seeing Naruto going, Hinata hesitated a little, then she quickly followed him, “Naruto-kun… wait for me!”

By the time Kabuto came to his sense, Naruto and Hinata had already walked away from a long distance, so even if he didn’t want to, Kabuto had no choice but to go after them… So, after shaking his head helplessly, Kabuto sighed and hurriedly caught up with the two kids, “Hey you two kids… don’t go ahead so casually! Do you even know how dangerous this place is?!”

At the same time, he couldn’t help but think whether it was a good idea to bring Naruto to the Ryuchi Cave…

As Kabuto, Naruto, and Hinata left the shrine of the White Snake Sage, three graceful female figures with white robes appeared by the White Snake Sage’s side…

These three beauties are, Tagori hime, Tagitsu hime, and Ichikishima hime… the three priestesses of the White Snake Sage.

Tagori hime looked at the back of three people as they disappeared, and couldn’t help but ask White Snake Sage, “Why did you stop us from testing the three of them outside the Ryuchi Cave?”

White Snake Sage stared at Naruto’s back and laughed, “Hehehe… just some reasons… Although, I never expected that this child will come here of all places…”

Tagitsu hime also looked at Naruto’s back and asked curiously, “Is there anything special about this child?”

“Maybe…” replied White Snake Sage…

Ichikishima hime was a little puzzled, “If that child is really special, then was it a good idea to let him go after Garaga? No matter how special, he is still a child at this time… with Garaga’s temper he will definitely eat up that child…”

White Snake Sage just chuckled and said nothing… but at the same time, she was thinking to herself, ‘If that child is really Asura’s reincarnation… then perhaps the test will end in a different manner… well, I just have to wait and see…’
