Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

Chapter 169 Parent-Teacher Meeting and New Sea Mission

He was born twice.

This was the first time that Ayane Amamiya was attending a parent-teacher conference as a "guardian".

Actually, the Amegakure Ninja Academy never had this habit before.

The education system in Little Ninja Village is even colder and more naked, never concealing its purpose of training students to be killing machines.

However, after signing the peace treaty with Konoha last time, Hanzo and his group brought back a batch of Konoha's advanced education system.

The Amegakure Ninja Academy, following suit, added parent-teacher conferences to its activities, thus officially "aligning" with international standards.

Because I promised the three little ones a long time ago.

So Ayane Amamiya got up very early that day and went to the ninja academy she hadn't been to in a long time.

Say something.

Quite a few parents from the neighborhood came; they all seemed quite curious about this new activity.

The teacher in charge of guiding her saw her walking in with her head down and quickly stopped her, calling out, "Stop! Are you a student or a parent?"

If the other party is a parent, they seem a bit too young.

If you say the other person is a student, the aura they exude doesn't make them seem as foolish as those little brats.

Ayane Amamiya's lips twitched, and she looked at him speechlessly, saying, "Nakamura-sensei, don't you recognize me?"

The somewhat bald teacher in front of you is the one in the ninja academy who teaches students taijutsu (physical techniques).

Because he was so obsessed with martial arts, and trained to the highest level, he still hasn't gotten married.

After hearing this, the physical training teacher named Nakamura carefully examined the girl for a few moments before realizing, "Wrong? It's Ayane, you."

He couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration, "The Dark Guard is truly a place for honing one's skills. It's only been eight or nine months, and I almost didn't recognize you!"

Compared to the top student I remembered more than half a year ago.

The girl seems to have grown a few centimeters taller, but the biggest change is her sharp and aloof demeanor.

When the other person took a few steps closer, he thought it was some important figure coming to inspect the place!

Ayane Amamiya smiled and said, "Sensei, I'm no longer with the Anbu."

"Um?"

The martial arts instructor was taken aback, then comforted the girl, "Oh, so you've left the Anbu? That's good, after all, Anbu work is very dangerous, and you're so young—"

Ayane Amamiya smiled calmly: "No, I've just been promoted to Hanzo's Shadow Guard."

! !

Nakamura-sensei's mouth dropped open: "What?!"

real or fake?

He found it hard to believe, but seeing the other person's serious expression, it seemed they weren't lying.

Ayane Amamiya waved to him, "Well then, teacher, the parent-teacher conference is about to start. See you later!"

Returning home in wealth and honor is like wearing brocade at night.

That makes perfect sense!

It feels good to pretend occasionally!

Ayane Amamiya entered the classroom with practiced ease.

The girl found Xiao Nan's seat in the classroom, straightened her skirt, and slowly sat down.

The three little ones sat side by side.

This resulted in her sitting alone in a row, making her stand out. Every parent who came in would glance at her.

But Ayane Amamiya remained calm and composed.

She was intently looking at the comic strip that Xiao Nan had created in her spare time on the desk.

Ayane Amamiya had done this kind of thing quite a few times in her past life.

She even drastically altered portraits of famous figures in textbooks, especially taking mature and composed figures from history books and transforming them into two-dimensional, eccentric characters.

As Ayane Amamiya admired the scene, she thought to herself: Minami usually acts so mature, but at the end of the day, she's still just a child.

Perhaps it's because I've been origami since I was little.

Xiao Nan's art style is delicate, and her characters are lifelike.

Yahiko, who was sleeping in class, and Nagato, who was daydreaming, were both vividly depicted on the desk.

The girl looked down and saw herself again.

The girl in the picture is bending down, holding a knife in one hand and pulling up a child who has fallen into the mud with the other.

This is the scene when they first met at the border.

I can't believe Xiao Nan still remembers this!

Ayane Amamiya felt a pang of sadness.

Perhaps because she often leaves the village, there are still quite a few graffiti about her. The most recent graffiti depicts the two playing chess the day before yesterday.

However, on the screen, it was Xiao Nan who won the game.

He was kneeling before his opponent, diligently massaging their legs, seemingly seeking advice on chess.

That's outrageous!

Amamiya Ayane thought to herself angrily, "So, Minami looks obedient on the surface, but she's actually rebellious and secretly plotting to overthrow the Heavenly Gang!"

Luckily, I cheated that day and didn't let her win!

Ayane Amamiya, her eyes filled with murderous intent, pulled out a kunai.

He wrote a small, vigorous character on his desk: "Read"!

Little Nan, oh Little Nan.

When you go back to school tomorrow to pick up your homework and see this word, you'll probably be sweating bullets, right?

The girl gave a soft snort, intending to smugly cross her legs.

But then I remembered that I was wearing a skirt today, so I had to suppress my thoughts.

soon.

The parents had almost all arrived in the classroom. Their former homeroom teacher had now taken up the same position on the podium.

He looked at the many parents.

His gaze lingered on Ayane Amamiya for a moment before he began to speak.

Ninjas are quite efficient in this regard, without much empty rhetoric.

After briefly explaining the teaching situation.

The homeroom teacher then spoke with the parents of the individual students.

The three boys took the top three spots, so they were last.

By the time it was Ayane Amamiya's turn, the classroom was empty.

"teacher?!"

Having learned from the physical training instructor's experience, Ayane Amamiya stepped forward cautiously and asked, "You still remember me, don't you?"

"Of course I remember!"

The homeroom teacher said with no small amount of pride, "The principal and I often talk about you!"

He patted his chest: "I often take out the videotape of your battle during the Chunin Exams to watch with my daughter!"

"Her favorite saying right now is that she wants to become a strong female ninja like you!"

Ayane Amamiya felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this.

But I was also a little happy, secretly pleased.

Who knows, I might be more suited to be the idol of female ninjas in the ninja world than Tsunade in the future!

The girl coughed, suppressing the smugness on her lips, and took the initiative to inquire about the three little ones' situation at school.

"The three of them are all very good kids, just as outstanding as you were back then."

The homeroom teacher chuckled and said, "Although they are still somewhat timid in character, overall, their strength has now surpassed the level of ninja trainees!"

Ayane Amamiya nodded: "I know, but I don't want them to graduate early yet."

I was the same way back then.

However, she managed to survive in school for two and a half years by relying on her father's connections and with the help of Principal Ichiji.

Students apply for graduation only after they have reached a certain level of competence.

"They can certainly stay in school, but given their current abilities, they will basically have to rely on self-study in the future."

The homeroom teacher shook his head: "Although we teachers are all Chunin, we haven't fought in a long time, so there's not much left for us to teach in terms of actual combat."

He looked at the girl: "Or rather, should you, the Chunin Exam champion, be the one to assign them their homework?"

Ayane Amamiya nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll consider it."

They left the ninja academy.

Instead of rushing home, Ayane Amamiya quickly moved to Hanzo's office to accept a mission.

After two days of rest, it's time to start working like a beast of burden again!

"Here's a new assignment, it's with a major client."

Hanzo the Salamander handed over a scroll: "It was originally posted to Iwagakure by the employer, but Ōnoki forwarded it to us."

Perhaps it's because they captured the Four-Tails Jinchuriki.

The connection between the two ninja villages has become closer than before.

Normally, if Onoki were in this situation, he would either hand it over to Konoha to curry favor, or simply refuse to take it.

"An escort mission?"

Ayane Amamiya flipped through the mission requirements on the scroll and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? It requires going out to sea? No wonder Onoki chose not to accept it—"

Because the Second Tsuchikage Mu and the Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki perished together, the two villages harbored hatred for each other for many years.

If Iwagakure accepts this mission.

That would mean venturing into the enemy's territory, a mission with a high risk of failure, making it a typical thankless and arduous endeavor.

"Not only that, it's quite obvious that old man Onoki has been reducing his manpower recently."

Hanzo of the Salamander paid close attention to his neighbor's actions and guessed, "Is he probably preparing for the Grass Ninja Village to make a move? I guess after the New Year, next spring, he will officially head south and invade the Land of Grass."

Ayane Amamiya nodded slightly.

War is not a game, and the kind of war that Konoha and Kumogakure can start at a moment's notice is an extremely rare exception.

Moreover, Onoki was a cunning and shrewd fellow who understood the principle that "even a lion needs to go all out to hunt a rabbit."

However, it's only November, so we can put this matter aside for now.

Ayane Amamiya glanced at the scroll in her hand, then suddenly had a brilliant idea: "Since it's an escort mission, I probably won't be enough on my own, will I?"

Hanzo was taken aback: "Huh? What do you mean?"

"Take those three little ones with you."

Ayane Amamiya smiled slightly: "The parent-teacher meeting is over, and the holidays are just around the corner. Let's treat it as their winter break training. Let a few of the younger ones come with me and broaden their horizons."

"Why do you talk like an old man, so condescendingly?"

Hanzo the Salamander was speechless upon hearing this: "What do you mean by 'a few kids'? To broaden their horizons? I remember you're only four years older than them, aren't you?"

Ayane Amamiya waved her hand dismissively.

She then asked, "They haven't graduated yet, they're not even genin yet, but with me looking after them, it shouldn't be considered a violation, right?"

"what ever."

"Anyway, when it comes to rules, if you don't like any of them, I can change them anytime."

Hanzo smiled and said, "As long as you don't think there will be any problems, that's fine."

Ayane Amamiya nodded slightly.

After her battle with Roshi, she was confident in her strength and had now reached the top tier of the ninja world.

Although she is still no match for the top ninjas in the world, such as the Raikage, Tsuchikage, and Sakumo Hatake.

However, there are Water Instantaneous Movement and Sealing Techniques.

Unless she is determined to die, it will not be easy for her opponents to keep her alive.

Moreover, this trip involves going out to sea, where the waves are endless, which is equivalent to coming to her home turf, further increasing her combat power!

If I had to say something...

The only ones we need to be wary of now are the troublemaking duo of Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu, who are lurking in the shadows.

However, firstly, Nagato is still young, so the other party has no reason to make a move.

Secondly, if the other party really has designs on me, would it definitely be useful in Amegakure?

Based on the original work, this refers to Nagato's fighting strength when he was forced to summon the Gedo Mazo.

Although Madara Uchiha is old now, if he is determined to fight to the death, his strength will probably be at the level of Kage, firmly above everyone in the ninja world!
