Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

Chapter 63 New Title and A-Rank Ninjutsu: Water Instantaneous Movement

Early the next morning.

Ayane Amamiya followed the goat to the top floor of the Black Tower—Hanzo the Salamander's office.

Before, once we entered the room, we would scurry underground like mice, and returning to the Dark Division felt like coming home.

This was her first time going up there.

"Including you, there are three guard ninjas in total."

The goat whispered, "Out of the three departments in the entire Dark Guard, only you were selected this time, so be prepared and don't embarrass us!"

She nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.

Then the goat said, "Take off your mask. According to the rules, guard ninjas cannot wear masks to avoid the risk of being assassinated and replaced."

Ayane Amamiya paused for a moment.

So that's what you meant by "don't lose points"!

She had no choice but to take off the swan mask and tuck it behind her back.

Enter the office.

Hanzo the Salamander stood by the railing, gazing absently out the window, overlooking the entire Amegakure village, lost in thought.

Standing next to him was a burly man with spiky gray hair and light purple tattoos on his face.

"leader!"

The goat greeted Ayane Amamiya.

Hanzo didn't turn his head; his voice came through the gas mask: "Yeah, you're here. Wait a little longer, Ameto hasn't arrived yet."

The goat responded, then secretly gave Ayane Amamiya a wink before turning and leaving.

A few minutes later.

A handsome young man with white hair rushed in from outside, his fingers delicately gesturing: "Oh, sorry~"

Sorry to keep you all waiting~

Ayane Amamiya shuddered.

This guy is a sissy!

Seeing that the three had all arrived.

Hanzo the Salamander then turned around, his gaze sweeping over the three of them.

"On this journey to the Land of Wind, I will trouble you all to serve as my guards."

Hanzo's tone was very authoritative: "Although Sunagakure has temporarily formed an alliance with us to jointly attack Konoha, the enmity between the two countries has a long history. So even though it may seem that we will not take action this time, we cannot be careless."

"Yes!" ×3

Hanzo continued, "Each of you is an elite in the village and the hope for the future in my eyes. I do not want any of you to perish in the Land of Wind."

He glanced at everyone and said, "Let's all introduce ourselves to each other, so as to avoid any problems in future cooperation."

The three ninjas exchanged a glance.

"I am Sansho Gyojin Taro."

The gray-haired, burly man was the first to introduce himself: "I'm an elite Jonin, skilled in taijutsu, poison techniques, and wind-style ninjutsu. My dream is to become a powerful figure like Leader Hanzo!"

Amamiya Ayane thought to herself, "This name sounds familiar."

It's probably some random character from the original anime, someone who'd most likely get kicked to death by the protagonist...

However, since it is also named after salamander.

This person must have some kind of relationship with Hanzo.

As soon as Shinta finished speaking, the effeminate pretty boy on the other side chimed in, "His name is Ameto. He's a medical ninja, a special jonin, and he's very skilled in medical ninjutsu and some common ninjutsu."

"Other people's dreams are..."

Following suit, Ayuto glanced at Ayane Amamiya standing beside him, covered his face shyly, and said, "I want to become a woman as beautiful as this friend~!"

Ayane Amamiya:

She tried hard to suppress the goosebumps that were rising all over her body, and put on a blank expression.

At the same time, it was noticed that the salamander on the opposite side also seemed to be putting on a tense face.

Unfortunately, Hanzo the Salamander's face was completely hidden by his gas mask, so his expression was impossible to discern.

"Ayane Amamiya".

The girl stepped forward and introduced herself: "I am skilled in swordsmanship and water-style ninjutsu. My dream is to protect the people around me."

She paused for a moment: "My current strength is... well, genin."

The expression on Sanshoku Shinta's face visibly betrayed his growing unease.

Good heavens, what kind of talents are my two teammates?

Even genin have come?

Hanzo noticed his emotions but didn't explain anything. Instead, he simply announced, "From now on, the three of you will be my Shadow Guard."

The so-called Shadow Guard is the Shadow's absolute confidant.

From then on, we would share both glory and loss.

However, this title is more like an honorary status; everyone is still busy with their own things in daily life.

For example, the three of them came from the secret service, the hospital, and the guard team, respectively, and each of them had their own job.

They only gather together when the film crew is traveling to other countries for interviews or attending important political events.

Hanzo had just finished speaking.

The girl then saw a notification pop up on her screen.

You have earned a new title!

Without a doubt, it must be a title related to the Shadow Guard.

Ayane Amamiya suppressed the restlessness in her heart and did not pay attention to the situation.

Hanzo then took out three more scrolls and handed them to the three men: "As my shadow guards, these are some of my cultivation insights. They can serve as a reference for your cultivation and provide some assistance."

good good!

There was an unexpected bonus!

The three guards remained silent, a hint of joy flashing across their faces.

Hanzo understood their feelings perfectly. After speaking, he waved his hand and said, "If there's nothing else, you can all leave now!"

There aren't many formalities among ninjas.

Ayane Amamiya gave a simple bow and quickly used Body Flicker to leave.

Shortly after the group left.

Hanzo suddenly said, "Go and bring the envoy from Konoha here."

A low reply came from the shadows.

Soon, a ninja wearing a Konoha headband was brought up.

"Regarding the invitation to the Konoha Chunin Exams, I'd like to know which other ninja villages are also participating in this exam?"

Hanzo the Salamander glanced at the ninja and said calmly, "I only care about the major ninja villages. Don't waste your time on the minor ones!"

The Konoha ninja hesitated for a moment.

But under Hanzo's gaze, he honestly replied, "Before I set off, Sunagakure was confirmed as a target; I was in contact with Kumogakure and Kirigakure; and Iwagakure explicitly refused..."

Hanzo sneered, "Inviting even Kumogakure, where the war hasn't ended yet? Hiruzen Sarutobi, are you that audacious?"

The ninja remained silent.

Hanzo didn't expect him to answer.

"I want to see what his purpose is!"

He readily agreed, "Go back and tell the Third Hokage that I've agreed to the Chunin Exams. I will arrive on time!"

The Konoha ninja was taken aback, then his expression brightened with joy.

People love to join in the fun, and the ninja village is no exception.

Therefore, the appeal of the Chunin Exams increased exponentially.

If Hanzo the Salamander, this demigod of the ninja world, were willing to attend.

Then, other ninja villages that were originally hesitant and wavering will definitely be tempted after hearing this news.

Watching him leave, Hanzo the Salamander felt a sense of confusion.

The Wind Shadow actually agreed even earlier than I did...

Could it be that they have also discovered some unparalleled genius?

But that slightly more famous Rasa, hasn't he been a Jonin for several years already?

Ayane Amamiya teleported home.

Finally, a new title!

The last time I upgraded the purple attribute, I used up all my achievement points.

Even though they made up for some of it through killing and training, they still have less than 2000 points!

This made her, a hamster enthusiast, extremely upset!

Silently summon the control panel.

You have earned a new title!

New Title: Rain Shadow Guardian

[Quality: Blue]

[Title Description: As a follower of "Shadow," you can be a brighter light or a deeper shadow—the choice is yours!]

[Title Effect: Greatly increases your prestige within your faction!]

[Title Reward: You have received 4000 Achievement Points that you can freely allocate!]

4000 achievement points!

This is 1000 points higher than the previous blue title, "Rising Star"!

But Ayane Amamiya was still somewhat disappointed.

She had assumed that Rain Shadow Guardians would at least have a purple title, but it turned out to be blue...

Is it because the Land of Rain is just a small country?

A guess flashed through my mind.

The girl unrolled the scroll again and quickly glanced through it.

The scroll contained the training method for the A-rank ninjutsu, Water Release: Water Instantaneous Body!

This is one of Hanzo the Salamander's signature moves!

Ayane Amamiya was overjoyed.

If we don't count the Water Break Wave and Rasengan she plagiarized, this is still the first A-rank ninjutsu she has obtained!

There are many types of Body Flicker Technique in the ninja world.

The levels range from low to high, from the D-rank Body Flicker Technique at the Ninja Academy to the top-rank A-rank Body Flicker Technique, all are included.

A normal teleportation technique.

It simply involves unleashing extreme physical power to achieve an effect similar to teleportation.

This kind of instantaneous movement technique has limited effectiveness in high-level combat.

Because if you can do it, so can I.

Everyone knows the principle, so it's not hard to guard against.

Ayane Amamiya killed so many ninjas that almost no one could escape her slaughter using the Body Flicker Technique.

A more advanced technique is the Instantaneous Movement Technique.

For example, Hanzo's Water Instantaneous Body is much more powerful in comparison.

It has already achieved the effect of a pseudo-space-time ninjutsu.

The scroll reads: "The ultimate Water Instantaneous Movement technique can instantly swap positions with any water within range that is under one's chakra control!"

This sounds a bit like a combination of Amenotejikara and Flying Thunder God.

In reality, however, the Water Instant Body is far inferior to both of them.

"Water Instant Body" is actually a disguised form of rapid teleportation.

Transforming the body into water and using water molecules in the air or soil to achieve high-speed travel is far from teleportation.

Even so, this is still a life-saving skill!

Moreover, this skill is easy to perform with hand seals. With the optimization of the skill description, Ayane Amamiya can easily use it with just one hand seal!

As expected of a demigod in the ninja world, he has a lot of good stuff!

Unable to contain her excitement, Ayane Amamiya put it into practice immediately.

She raised her right index and middle fingers and silently chanted in her mind: Instant Water Body!

Whoosh!

The next moment, the girl appeared on the ground dozens of meters away, stumbling as she stepped.

That's too fast!

It was much farther away than expected.

She was even a little taken aback by the sudden shift in perspective!

No wonder there are so many ninjas, but only the Second Hokage and Minato Namikaze mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique!

This kind of "super speed" ability is something that ordinary people can't control!

While feeling a mix of emotions, Ayane Amamiya was also somewhat resentful.

Come again!

Water Instantaneous Body Technique!

swoosh~

He dodged and nearly crashed into the wall...

Come again!

swoosh~

This time it was much better than before; both feet landed steadily on the tree.

The rainy climate of the Land of Rain makes the air extremely humid.

This also allowed Ayane Amamiya to unleash her ninjutsu with almost no effort!

Swish swish~!

Her figure flashed and darted through the courtyard, sometimes even incorporating sword techniques into her movements during her instantaneous teleportation, forcing herself to better adapt to this incredible speed.

"What a convenient ninjutsu."

After a long while, her figure stopped in the courtyard: This kind of water teleportation is almost unsolvable in the watery environment of the Rain Country!

Ayane Amamiya subconsciously began to ponder.

What should I do if the enemy also masters a similar teleportation technique?

It wasn't that she wanted to target Hanzo, but rather that there were actually quite a few similar body-flickering techniques in the ninja world.

For example, Gaara's Sand Instantaneous Body Technique, and Zabuza's Mist Instantaneous Body Technique...

After much thought, there are only two solutions that are not really solutions.

Either be fast enough to catch the opponent off guard!

Alternatively, one can only create specific environments.

She thought about it for a moment and suddenly thought of a shortcut.

Sealing Technique!

There are actually quite a few sealing techniques similar to the Fire Sealing Seal.

Their effects are all specifically designed to seal ninjutsu with a certain fixed attribute...

If we could create a water-sealing seal...
