Susano didn't want to stay there, so he said 'I do not want to stay here' ('乃興言曰 此地吾不欲居' --original text) and took his son Isotakerunokami to the east by tsuchibune (a ship used to carry sediment) and reached the Torigami no Mine (Range) on the upper Hii-kawa River in Izumo Province('遂以埴土作舟 乘之東渡 到出雲國簸川上所在 鳥上之峯'--original text), whereupon he exterminated Yamatanoorochi.
この地吾居ること欲さず「乃興言曰此地吾不欲居」と言い息子の五十猛神（イソタケル）と共に土船で東に渡り出雲国斐伊川上の鳥上の峰へ到った（「遂以埴土作舟乘之東渡到出雲國簸川上所在鳥上之峯」）後八岐大蛇を退治した。
