What stood out most about Ryūchi Cave's Snake Sage Mode was its terrifyingly powerful sensory ability.
It was hardly surprising that the White Snake Sage could sense the Nine-Tails. After all, it was only natural for a monster who had lived for over a thousand years to know about the tailed beasts.
"White Snake Sage, pardon my unannounced visit. I am Otsutsuki Toneri. It is a pleasure to meet you." Otsutsuki Toneri took a small step forward and bowed slightly to the White Snake Sage, speaking gently.
No one knew what reserves such ancient monsters possessed. That old Toad Sage even had the power of prophecy.
And who knew what special abilities the White Snake Sage possessed?
There was nothing wrong with being polite!
"Otsutsuki Toneri... I see. A clan passed down from Kaguya's era? On your body... oh? The Ancestor's Eye?" The White Snake Sage straightened her upper body slightly at his words. Her forked tongue flicked in and out, her serpentine eyes fixed intently on Otsutsuki Toneri.
She knew the name Ōtsutsuki all too well!
She would never forget that world-destroying battle a thousand years ago, which had lasted for months!
And the three central figures in that battle were all Ōtsutsuki!
Hearing that name again now, she could not help but be cautious!
But this brief examination with her senses and eyes only shocked her further. She sensed a familiar power in this boy!
The Ancestor's Eye, the eye of the Ten-Tails and that godlike woman! She sensed it in this boy as well!
"You are perceptive indeed, White Snake Sage, but it isn't the Ancestor's Eye yet." A smile curled Otsutsuki Toneri's lips at her words. An ancient monster was an ancient monster, after all. She could identify his power through her senses alone!
