Compared to a somewhat naïve and kind-hearted child appearing in the future, Uchiha Kyu was more eager for a child who was mature in thought and skilled in his methods.

"Alright, I promise you." Orochimaru agreed excitedly in his heart. This time, he definitely would not repeat his past mistakes, and no one would deliberately target his disciple again.

As he spoke, Orochimaru secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Uchiha Kyu. After only one look, he quickly lowered his gaze, as if nothing had happened.
