Grrrgle~~.
Naruko's stomach growled.
I'm so hungry...
She swallowed.
Seeing Naruko's expression, Hyuga Sho looked at Tagorihime again.
"The genjutsu is very realistic."
"What?"
Tagorihime looked confused.
"Nice act."
Hyuga Sho said.
"But... monster! Reveal yourself!!"
Hyuga Sho pointed a finger.
A pillar of orange-red light flew toward Tagorihime.
"!"
Tagorihime twisted at the waist and dodged with an uncanny movement and speed.
"What incredible reflexes."
Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses, his expression turning unusually serious.
"..."
Two narrowed her eyes as she sized up the woman.

Naruko cried out in dismay.

The food that had fallen to the ground began to change.
It turned into black, indescribable things.
Hisssss...
White and black steam rose, sizzling like sulfuric acid.
"As expected... there was something wrong with all this food."
The corner of Yakushi Kabuto's mouth curled upward.
"I'm afraid any human who ate this would have died."
"Bitch!"
Two cracked her whip and looked eager to fight.
How could she not capture and properly punish such a bitch?
"Besides... she might not be human."
Yakushi Kabuto crouched down to observe for a moment before standing and looking toward Tagorihime.
Ryūchi Cave.
Apart from those who came here seeking the Way, how could any other humans possibly appear
