Feeling the highly condensed Chakra within the Rasengan, Snake Princess's face grew solemn.
The mysterious young man before them was no ordinary ninja. His strength was at least on par with Orochimaru, one of the Sannin. However, testing visitors to Ryūchi Cave was the duty of the three of them.
Just as the three snake princesses hesitated, an aged voice rang out from within Ryūchi Cave. "You are no match for the Child of Prophecy. Let him enter. This old woman also wishes to meet this Child of Prophecy."
Hearing this, the three snake princesses sighed in relief and stepped aside, opening a path.
As sages, they could sense Naruto's immense Chakra, vast as the sea. Naturally, the pressure on them was considerable.
After traveling deeper into Ryūchi Cave for some time, Naruto saw the Great Snake Sage seated cross-legged atop a stone platform. The White Snake Sage wore a hat and held a pipe between her lips, looking utterly at ease.
After activating the Mind's Eye of the Kagura, Naruto found that the White Snake Sage's Chakra seemed connected to the entire earth, boundless and inexhaustible.
The White Snake Sage was also staring at Uzumaki Naruto.
Aside from his own enormous reserves of Chakra, Naruto also possessed several different forms of Chakra within his body. They all shared one trait: they were exceptionally powerful.
One of them even carried the aura of the Nine-Tails.
The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki—wasn't this the child Gamamaru had taken a liking to? Had Ryūchi Cave truly stumbled upon such good fortune?
After staring for a long while, the White Snake Sage was the first to break the silence. She slowly said, "Child of Prophecy, Leader of Uzushio... or should I call you the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Having his true identity exposed, Naruto did not become angry.
