Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

Chapter 65 Young people these days are truly terrifying!

The territory of the Land of Winds is astonishingly large.

If you were to travel from the capital of the Land of Rain to the Sand Village in the heart of the Land of Wind, it would take at least six days.

Six days...

What does this mean?

In extreme cases, this amount of time would be more than enough for Hanzo of the Salamander to launch a blitzkrieg against Konoha!

Moreover, Ayane Amamiya and her group had very bad luck.

On their very first day in the desert, they encountered a very rare and massive sandstorm.

A fierce wind swept up yellow sand, its scale obscuring the sky and the sun. The sand whistled sharply within the tornado, making it look like the end of the world.

Faced with this immense power of nature.

Even though the four were quite strong, they wouldn't invite trouble by rushing in to brave the sandstorm.

Hanzo the Salamander then decided to make some minor repairs at the edge of the sandstorm.

After this huge thing dissipates naturally, we can continue on our way.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!"

When the transvestite Yudou was speaking earlier, he accidentally got a mouthful of sand and is now lying on the ground trying to clear his throat.

The salamander god wasn't feeling too well either.

When he set off, he pretentiously didn't wear any sand protection gear.

At this moment, there was sand everywhere—in my hair, in the seams of my clothes, and between my toenails. Now, I felt unbearably itchy all over my body.

Ayane Amamiya looked at the miserable state of her two companions.

I thought to myself that Takenaka Rin and Minami were still quite reliable.

Hanzo the Salamander was sitting on a scorching hot rock, gazing absently at the distant sandstorm.

We traveled together for two days.

Ayane Amamiya felt that this demigod didn't seem to be the talkative type; instead, he gave off a... dull and withdrawn vibe.

"Looking at it this way, the environment of the Land of Wind is actually not much better than that of our Land of Rain."

Hanzo suddenly sighed and asked, "But why is it that they can become one of the Five Great Nations?"

Shinda said, "Perhaps it's because of their geographical advantage? The countries bordering the Land of Wind are all small countries, posing no threat to them."

Ayane Amamiya said softly, "And they have a large enough population."

The Land of Winds is somewhat like India in a past life.

Despite the harsh environment.

But they are inexplicably able to reproduce, giving them a significant population advantage.

At the same time, Sunagakure also practices militarized education and has very high military expenditures, and its ninja base has always ranked among the top in the five great nations.

Of course, that's putting it nicely.

To put it bluntly, it was a waste of resources and a war effort.

Hanzo was about to speak.

Suddenly, a female voice came from beside him: "What? You also want to learn from Sunagakure and expand Amegakure's military strength?"

The group looked in the direction of the sound.

The person speaking was an old woman wearing a thick scarf and carrying a large scroll on her back.

She was not tall, and although she had wrinkles on her face, her overall demeanor was very imposing.

It looks like a flower that refuses to grow old, striving to bloom in the desert.

At least in Ayane Amamiya's view, the other party did not have the kind of old and frail feeling that he had during the "Shippuden" era.

That's right, this person is none other than Chiyo, the senior advisor of Sunagakure!

Hanzo's previous solemn expression vanished instantly, even his tone changed: "Puppet old hag!? Sunagakure actually sent you to greet us?"

Chiyo immediately retorted: "Old man with the breathing tube, I'm not here to welcome you, I just want to see when you're going to die!"

"Puppet old woman!"

"An old man wearing a breathing tube!"

The two of them actually started hurling insults at each other.

Ayane Amamiya scratched her head as she watched.

What's going on?

Sanshoku no Gintama, however, didn't take it seriously.

When the Land of Rain launched its invasion of Sunagakure from the south, the two clashed on the battlefield, engaging in what was essentially a childish exchange of insults...

"Sister, Lord Hanzo! Please stop arguing!"

From the distant yellow sand, another withered old man emerged; he was Chiyo's younger brother, Ebizo.

"Let's get going quickly."

Ebizo looked left and right, then acted as a peacemaker: "It is not the way of Sunagakure to let Lord Hanzo and his distinguished guests eat sand here."

"What's the rush?"

Chiyo said irritably, "The Kazekage isn't even in the village. We're in a rush to get back, but we won't be able to see him!"

Hanzo's expression changed: "The Third Kazekage isn't in the village? You're playing me?"

His mind raced.

Several possibilities came to mind in an instant, but they all revolved around the phrase "luring the tiger away from the mountain".

"Don't worry, the Third Hokage is just going deep into the desert to oversee this year's gold mining operation. He has no intention of launching a surprise attack on your Land of Rain."

Chiyo sneered, "Your godforsaken place is rainy all year round, you can't even grow a flower. We Sunagakure don't even want a place like that!"

Even a powerful figure like Fengying has to mine?

The three guards exchanged a glance, all understanding each other's thoughts—this is truly pitiful!

Upon hearing this, Hanzo let out an "Oh," and retorted sarcastically, "Is the Land of Wind so great? All you do is eat sand and drink the northwest wind. How many times a year do you even take a bath? I can smell your stench from a mile away!"

"If you look down on the Land of Wind, why invade it?"

Chiyo was the first to bring up old grievances: "During the Second Shinobi World War, wasn't it your Amegakure who crossed the border first?"

Hanzo sneered: "You talk as if you're all innocent and pure, as if you didn't invade the Land of Rain back then..."

Such conflicts between nations are a complete mess.

It's important to know that before the era of the Ninja Village, there was the famous Warring States period.

Warring States Period...

As you can tell from the name, the great war was started by the various countries of the ninja world, and the various ninja clans were just mercenaries hired by the daimyo!

What if history is a cycle?

The establishment of the ninja village merely upgraded the power of the mercenaries...

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Ebizo quickly interrupted, "Sister! Lord Hanzo! Stop talking! Let's set off!"

Chiyo didn't waste any more words, and said sarcastically, "If you fall behind, just shout, and I'll come back for you!"

Having said that, she neither dodged nor avoided it.

He actually charged straight into the massive sandstorm ahead!

Seeing this, Ebizo chuckled and feigned embarrassment.

He may seem honest and simple, but he's actually incredibly shrewd.

I immediately understood what my sister was thinking.

This is meant to give Amegakure a taste of their power!

"It looks like this sandstorm won't dissipate for at least another day. Perhaps, Lord Hanzo, we could wait here for a while?" He feigned reluctance, pretending to ask for instructions.

Hanzo the Salamander coldly replied, "No need! It's just a sandstorm; it can't stop us!"

After saying that, he strode after Chiyo.

Ayane Amamiya and the other two Rain Shadow Guards exchanged a glance and naturally followed suit.

This kind of massive sandstorm...

To be honest, the last time I saw Ayane Amamiya was in an anime in my past life.

The coordinates are the Alabasta Kingdom in the neighboring film set...

The wind howled furiously, as if venting the wrath of the gods.

As soon as Ayane Amamiya stepped inside, she felt unsteady on her feet.

She hurriedly activated her chakra, attaching it to the soles of her feet, and used a method similar to treading water to stabilize her body.

This tactic was effective, but it didn't last long.

Soon the results became somewhat unsatisfactory.

As you walk forward, the wind around you gets stronger and stronger.

The howling wind almost ripped the ground off, so no amount of stomping on the sand would help.

She looked ahead.

Chiyo's figure had completely disappeared, and Hanzo, who had been walking in front of her, had now become a small black dot.

Then look at your companions.

The salamander god was doing alright; although the journey was difficult, at least it was taking one step at a time, just a bit slow.

The medical ninja, Ameto, looked like he was about to collapse, his body swaying precariously as if he were about to be blown away by the wind at any moment.

Even if he were blown away right now, he would be in absolutely no danger.

Because Ebizo was leisurely following behind them, he would definitely come to their aid if Ameto encountered any danger!

But doing so would be a disgrace to the entire Amegakure village.

Ayane Amamiya flashed over, grabbed his collar, and secretly formed a hand seal with her left hand.

In this situation, walking is not an option!

Water Instantaneous Movement!

swoosh~

With a flash, she appeared dozens of meters away almost instantly, as if she had teleported!

Are there really that many water molecules in the desert?

Logically speaking, the desert environment is water-scarce, so the effectiveness of water-based movement should be greatly reduced.

But the Instantaneous Movement Technique worked so smoothly this time that even Ayane Amamiya herself found it somewhat unbelievable.

She glanced at Hanzo ahead and immediately understood everything.

Was it that while walking, I deliberately used a silent water escape technique, leaving behind a large amount of water element to help me perform the Body Flicker Technique?

This is....

A hint to me?

Ayane Amamiya no longer hesitated.

The girl turned around and held the salamander in the same way.

The other party was stunned for a moment, and still wanted to resist.

But Ayane Amamiya coldly replied, "You're too slow. Are you going to keep Leader Hanzo waiting outside? The Sand Village advisors are just waiting to laugh at us!"

The salamander gritted its teeth and immediately stopped struggling.

He felt a little embarrassed.

The opponent is just a genin!

Even if this genin is somewhat special, isn't he still a genin?

I am an elite Jonin in the village!

Seeing that the other person closed their eyes in embarrassment, Ayane Amamiya then adjusted her posture.

The girl struck a pose resembling "leading a yellow dog on the left and holding a falcon on the right," capturing water molecules in the air and unleashing a water-speeding technique, hurtling all the way!

Under the continuous, fleeting water.

She seemed to be shimmering and leaping through the sandstorm!

Not only did they quickly catch up with Hanzo and follow closely behind, but they also discreetly left behind some small toys along the way.

Ebizo, who was behind her, noticed her sudden acceleration and was about to take a closer look when he was suddenly hit in the face by several grains of sand.

That feeling was burning hot.

"Um?"

He was somewhat surprised. He reached out and touched the sand, and found that it was damp and had water droplets on it!

Ebizo was both amused and exasperated, realizing this was the other party retaliating.

He wasn't angry about such a trivial matter; in fact, he was somewhat amazed.

The sand in a sandstorm is extremely powerful.

With the added protection of the water droplets, it's as if they're wearing a layer of armor, allowing them to break through their own defenses and fly onto their faces!

Of course, this also reflects the opponent's strength.

To maintain the water droplets in place during a sandstorm of this scale requires extremely high skill in water manipulation!

"Young people these days are really scary!"

Ebizo was suddenly filled with emotion.

The waves of youth are constantly pushing the old ones aside. In a few years, an old man like me will probably be knocked to the ground by the younger generation!
