Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.

Although this period of surveillance was called a mission, it was actually Ayane Amamiya's personal vacation.

It was a rare moment of carefree time for her since leaving school.

Among the Sannin, Tsunade and Jiraiya didn't harbor much hostility towards her.

As for Orochimaru, it was as if he was conducting some kind of 'human observation experiment.' Every time he saw Ayane Amamiya, he not only showed no murderous intent, but his gaze was filled with an inexplicable interest...

How so?

This kind of observer's gaze, like that of a scientist looking at a lab rat, once made the young girl feel a little uneasy...

So she simply buried herself in her studies.

While continuously practicing the beginner sealing technique "Ichi-to-Doujin" (One Thread Lantern Formation), he also studied the new term "Elementary Ninja Taijutsu (Sword Technique Form)".

With the captain leading the way in "playing it off," the team members followed suit.

Besides diligently practicing his sensory ninjutsu, the eagle spends his days taking care of the three little ones.

The diligent woodpecker was responsible for compiling daily intelligence, meticulously recording the movements of the three ninjas each day and reporting them to the higher-ups.

But to be honest.

The Black Swan Squad also had no access to any of Konoha's core military secrets.

At most, it can only serve a function similar to a "daily check-in"—reminding the higher-ups that the three legendary ninjas are still in the Land of Rain today!

That evening.

Ayane Amamiya finished her day of rigorous training and sheathed her sword.

The tree in front of me was covered with dense, uneven carvings, some deep, some shallow, with varying blade edges.

Based on my understanding from watching anime in my past life, and my personal experiences in this life, water and earth should be the weakest of the five elements in terms of offensive power.

"That's why most ninjutsu and taijutsu seem to be based on wind, lightning, or fire attributes; I don't think I've ever heard of any water-attribute ninjutsu."

The Yin-Yang attribute is ignored here.

This is because most ninjas do not have access to the advanced Yin-Yang Release technique.

Despite the large number of ninja clans in the ninja world.

But when it comes to Yin and Yang attributes, apart from top-tier clans like the Senju and Uchiha, the next best are first-tier clans like the Ino-Shika-Cho.

"But since the 'Basic Ninjutsu' entry on the panel shows that it can be upgraded, it means that water-attribute ninjutsu has great potential."

"Currently, the water-attribute swordsmanship I've mastered from the entries focuses primarily on concealment, making it extremely difficult for the enemy to detect my attacks."

"But if I want to continue cultivating, what should I focus on?"

As she pondered the insights and experiences she had gained during her cultivation, she walked towards her tent.

Whether it's after a battle or after training, a brief debriefing is always performed. This is a fine tradition that Ayane Amamiya has maintained since she was in the Ninja Academy.

Although upgrading entries can only be achieved by consuming achievement points.

But that doesn't mean she can completely abandon her brain and just kill indiscriminately.

In other words.

Thinking and exploring principles is also a form of self-cultivation.

Combining hands and brain allows her to gain achievement points more efficiently in her practice, far surpassing the efficiency of mechanical sword-wielding training.

A few steps away from the tent.

As expected, Ayane Amamiya heard the voices of the eagle and the three little creatures coming from inside again.

These guys are probably having another tea party in their tent again...

"It was raining heavily that day, and the wind was howling fiercely~"

"The fierce wind blowing through the treetops is like a tiger devouring a man!"

Takenaka Ri's voice was passionate and impassioned, with the air of a storyteller: "That Konoha female ninja called Tsunade is truly formidable. Her arms are incredibly strong, and when she swings her fists, it's as if a demon has descended from the heavens."

"Seeing that the captain was struggling and retreating repeatedly, he was about to be defeated."

"I was furious. I grabbed my ninja tool pouch and launched into a sliding tackle!"

When the exciting part came up, the eagle deliberately picked up his water glass and moistened his throat.

Wow!

Xiao Nan, ever the enthusiastic one, quickly pressed on, "And then? And then? Did you, Sister Li, come to the rescue?"

Nagato remained silent, his Rinnegan behind his bangs fixed on the eagle.

Yahiko's eyes darted around, his fists clenched, as if he had already imagined the scene in his mind and was completely immersed in it.

"Then?"

"And then she did this!"

Ayane Amamiya walked in from outside the tent and snapped her fingers lightly, tapping the eagle on the forehead.

"Ouch!"

Pear in the bamboo shoot fell to the ground with a thud, landing flat on her back.

Ayane Amamiya said with a mixture of curiosity and amusement, "How about that? Now you see clearly, right? After she went up, she was easily taken down by Tsunade with just one finger!"

"Look carefully."

Xiao Nan playfully stuck out her tongue and chuckled as she pulled the eagle up: "Hehe! I actually knew all along that Sister Pear was just bragging."

Yahiko and Nagato nodded in agreement.

Everyone was just teasing the eagle for fun, they just didn't say anything!

Takenaka Rin puffed up her cheeks in exasperation, feeling an awkward sense of "wanting to make a fool of someone happy but then realizing that she was the fool herself."

Then she angrily waved her hand and said, "Go away! All the after-dinner tea parties are canceled. I'm never telling stories to you little brats again!"

"No!"

Without hesitation, Nagato quickly tried to persuade him to stay.

He wanted to hear more of Ayane Amamiya's stories!

But as soon as the words left my mouth, I regretted them.

The two friends looked at him in surprise, their eyes seeming to say, "Is this the Nagato who used to barely utter three words a day?"

The boy immediately lowered his head, making it impossible for anyone to see his expression.

"Alright, it's getting late, you guys should go back now."

Ayane Amamiya didn't notice the little commotion between the group.

She glanced at the sky outside the tent and said, "Remember to get up early tomorrow morning, I have something to tell you."

Because there weren't many tents available, they always kept men and women separate.

The woodpecker and the two boys shared one tent, while Ayane Amamiya and the eagle shared another tent with Minami.

Although the girl is usually very down-to-earth.

But once she spoke, Nagato and Yahiko still didn't dare to refuse.

The two obediently got up and said goodbye to Ayane Amamiya and the other girl.

"Goodnight, Sister Pear!" ×2!

"Goodnight, Amamiya-sama!" ×2!

Ayane Amamiya: "......."

After the two left, she grabbed Takenaka Ri's ear: "Why are you calling me 'Big Sister'?! It's like I'm some kind of yakuza thug... What kind of ideas have you been feeding them?"

The eagle retorted, "No, I've always been protecting Ayane's wise image..."

"snort!"

The girl gave a soft snort and loosened her grip: "I'll spare your life this time, but if you dare to do it again..."

"Captain, there will be no next time!" Eagle immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Ayane Amamiya was driven to despair by this lovable character.

She shook her head, untied the weights from her legs, and prepared to take off her combat uniform.

Unexpectedly, Takenaka Ri leaned in mischievously again: "Speaking of which, Ayane, haven't you noticed that Nagato seems to be treating you quite differently? Could it be...?"

Xiao Nan's ears stood up very high, like telephone poles.

The little girl appeared to be making the bed, but she was actually eavesdropping.

Ayane Amamiya said expressionlessly, "You're overthinking it."

She actually felt the same way.

However, it becomes quite easy to understand upon closer examination.

Firstly, Nagato felt guilty about Yukio's death, believing that she was responsible for his demise.

This guilt, coupled with Ayane Amamiya's life-saving grace, led to Yukio's admiration and trust for Ayane Amamiya being indirectly transferred to Nagato.

Secondly, Ayane Amamiya and the other person have one thing in common: their hair!

The two colors are not exactly the same, but they are practically identical.

Although the two were complete strangers before.

But this sense of familiarity, like that of a family member, would certainly be very clear to the sensitive Nagato.

Ayane Amamiya sighed inwardly.

She finally made up her mind about what to do with the three little ones today.

I just don't know.

What role will I play in Nagato's heart, the "Child of Prophecy"?

I just hope he doesn't end up like that unlucky guy Jiraiya, who was killed by his master to prove his Dao!

She took off her mask and untied the hair tie.

He then lay down on the soft cushion, glanced at the chubby-cheeked Takenaka Rin, and said lazily, "Eagle, you're going out on night duty tonight. Xiao Nan and I will rest in the tent."

"What?"

"Yay!"

Two completely different answers rang out from inside the tent.

Ayane Amamiya chuckled.

Although I'm sparing your life, it doesn't mean I can't punish you.

As the captain of the Black Swan Squad, my power is limitless!
