Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

Today is a very rare sunny day.

The sun struggled to peek out from behind the clouds, causing Ayane Amamiya, who had just left the Dark Side, to squint instinctively.

Even the heavens are on our side?

The rare sunny weather, coupled with the notification that popped up on the panel, made Ayane Amamiya even more excited.

She hadn't dared to check the new title in the office before.

Instead, she waited until she walked out of the black tower and arrived at the agreed meeting point before turning her attention to the panel.

You have earned a new title!

[New Title: Rising Star!]

[Quality: Blue]

[Title Description: As a member of the Shadows, you always walk in the shadows, never seeing the light of day. Yet, you have still caught the attention of some higher-ups, who have high expectations for your future performance!]

[Title Effect: Knowledgeable ninjas from your own faction will have their initial affinity towards you increased to some extent! Your speed in learning and mastering new ninjutsu will also receive a slight boost!]

[Title Reward: You have received 3000 Achievement Points that you can freely allocate!]

It's actually a blue title, on par with the [Dark Force Captain]!

Ayane Amamiya was slightly surprised at first, but then she was filled with joy.

She initially thought...

In the shadows, where it's difficult to show your face, it's very difficult to cultivate a persona or earn titles.

But unexpectedly, he won three in just two months!

"As the vice minister, Goat must have seen the information about me a long time ago."

"But only now has the title 'Rising Star' appeared on the panel. Considering what he said earlier..."

"So, actually, it was because Hanzo the Salamander noticed me that the title appeared on my character panel?"

Ayane Amamiya pondered, "If this deduction holds true, in other words, the stronger the person, the greater their influence in granting me the title!"

As for the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, why didn't they manage to earn titles for themselves back then?

Ayane Amamiya felt that her image back then was too one-dimensional.

It's just a declaration or something.

While it may leave a deep impression on them, simply talking big without taking action is far from enough to solidify one's reputation!

Anyway, I've found another quick way to farm titles.

The girl smiled, a sense of relief rising in her heart.

She looked at the title's effects again. Although it didn't directly increase the percentage of ninjutsu power, it did have the noble attribute of accelerating learning!

Last time when I was learning the Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique.

She had already realized just how powerful this so-called "accelerated learning" effect really was.

Now, with the double boost, the speed at which Ayane Amamiya learns new ninjutsu is simply unimaginable!

Just as she was about to travel to the Land of Earth to gather intelligence, Ayane Amamiya suddenly had the idea of ​​expanding her pool of ninjutsu.

The C-level Water Clone Technique is a must-learn.

This ninjutsu is different from shadow clones. Although the clones do not have independent consciousness, they can assist the main body in releasing ninjutsu.

If used properly, its effects are no less than those of advanced ninjutsu.

In addition, it would be best to expand on lightning-attribute ninjutsu.

After all, the teachers had mentioned the characteristic of being able to overcome earth during the teaching at the Ninja Academy.

Although, from Ayane Amamiya's current perspective, the counter-relationship between attributes is not so absolute.

Chakra levels, combat intelligence, environmental factors, and even a bit of luck can all influence the outcome of a battle...

But who knows, we might need it in the future?

Having quietly made some plans for the future, Ayane Amamiya then turned her attention to the achievement points balance on the panel.

[Achievement Points Balance: 5244!]

The achievement points brought by the new title "Rising Star".

Not only did it make up for the cost of upgrading the [Swordsmanship Basics] skill, it also caused the panel balance to break through the 5000-point mark in one go!

Today, her profile picture is no longer as shabby as it was when she first graduated.

Besides being born with the qualities of being an "outsider" and having the "vortex bloodline".

Other commonly used terms have also gradually progressed from white to green and blue!

Um......

Aside from "Overflowing Killing Intent," the advancement conditions for this white-label entry have not yet been met.

Should we upgrade the blue attribute "Intermediate Ninjutsu Mastery"?

Ayane Amamiya was caught in a dilemma.

I finally managed to accumulate all these achievement points, and now I'm going to use them all up at once...

But the first purple entry...

It looks so appealing!

She glanced at the panel again, where the words were clearly written below the entries.

[Advanced requirements for specific attributes: 5000 achievement points for any attribute!]

My current achievement points are only enough to upgrade a single attribute!

The girl gritted her teeth, feeling there was nothing to hesitate about.

Add more for me!

Panel, let me see your limits!

With a thought, 5000 achievement points were instantly thrown in.

[The entry has been upgraded!]

[New entry: Advanced Water Release Ninjutsu Mastery!]

[Entry Quality: Purple]

[Entry Description: Your understanding of Water Release is extremely profound, possessing a powerful foundation and control that is difficult for ordinary ninjas to match, sufficient to support more complex and grander Water Release techniques!]

[Action Effect: Increases the power of Water Release ninjutsu by 50%! Effectively reduces the number of hand seals required for all Water Release techniques! Improves understanding of Water Release chakra forms and nature transformations!]

[Currently available advancement path for this attribute: Celestial Phenomenon Ninjutsu - Water (Red)]

[Advanced Requirements: 20000 Achievement Points!]

[Note: You can further develop the nature transformations related to Water Release chakra to obtain more secondary advancement paths for Water Release derivative bloodline limits!]

A long list of terms and phrases came into view.

Ayane Amamiya was so excited that her heart almost stopped!

Such a powerful effect...

I have everything I need now!

--------

Filled with excitement, Ayane Amamiya and Woodpecker successfully reunited at a small training ground within the Anbu headquarters.

A short while later, Eagle also came in carrying a bag full of supplies.

She slung her tactical backpack over her chest, her clumsy attempts to look around for Ayane Amamiya making her resemble a little squirrel slathered with supplies...

Ayane Amamiya clapped her hands, making a sound to attract her attention.

So the little squirrel immediately ran over happily.

"Quick, quick, look at what I've carefully selected for you—they're all top-quality goods!"

Seeing that no one was around, Eagle immediately took out various ninja tools from his backpack and distributed them to the two of them.

As the team leader, Ayane Amamiya was given a total of thirty explosive tags!

The woodpecker was also greatly shocked.

He took out several shuriken and kunai from his own bag; the weapons, made of fine steel, gleamed coldly and were extremely sharp.

It looks like a top-quality product!

"This batch of goods is top-notch! I rarely receive ninja tools of this quality before!" Woodpecker couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"You... Is it the end of the month today? How did you manage to get so many explosive tags?" Ayane Amamiya recalled the "guidance" Woodpecker gave her when she first joined the company.

Even if it's a month-end clearance sale, you shouldn't be able to get this much, right?

"What do you mean by the end of the month?"

The eagle was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "The reason we were able to get so much is because the ninja who guards the warehouse and I both mentioned my dad's name!"

It turns out it's because he's the son of an official!

Upon hearing this, Ayane Amamiya immediately accepted it with a delighted smile.

To be fair, the explosive tags are quite powerful, and in regular ninja battles, they can usually deliver a decisive blow.

And for some reason...

Ayane Amamiya gets more and more addicted to throwing explosive tags during battles!

There's a unique, pleasurable sensation in it that makes it irresistible...

The girl pondered.

When Xiao Nan grows up, I'll lock her in a dark room and make explosive tags for myself day and night!

According to the original story, she was able to conjure up 600 billion explosive tags using her paper-based magic, so giving herself a fraction of that wouldn't be unreasonable...

The equipment has been inventoried.

The woodpecker asked in a low voice, "Captain, when do we set off?"

The eagle also peered at her, as if it had something to say.

Ayane Amamiya glanced at them and immediately saw through their thoughts: "According to regulations, this mission is extremely urgent, and we must depart immediately."

"But..."

She remembered the information about the two people.

Woodpecker is a single father whose son is twelve years old but doesn't have the talent to be a ninja. He is currently an apprentice at a pastry shop in the village.

The father and son rarely see each other throughout the year.

Eagle is the daughter of the village's security chief.

Although she didn't know why she not only went to the front lines to fight, but also came to such a torturous place as the Dark Guard, she hadn't been home for a long time.

The girl added softly, "However, I have some personal matters to take care of, so I can still squeeze out a little time right now."

She smiled and announced directly, "Everyone, disperse! Regroup here in three hours, don't be late!"

Takenaka Rin immediately cheered, "Long live the captain!"

Woodpecker knew the rules of the Dark Division better than she did, and a hint of surprise and indescribable gratitude flashed in her eyes beneath the mask.

"Thank you, Captain."

He took a deep breath, not daring to waste any time, and quickly got up and left.

Seeing their excited expressions, Ayane Amamiya stood there, smiling as she saw them off.

Unlike the other two, he was truly homeless.

What private matters could there possibly be to deal with?

The girl silently arrived at the training ground, drew her ninja sword, and continued her training...
