Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

Chapter 255 Daily Life in the New Year and the Yin Escape Cultivation Plan

The sun and moon revolve.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and with a gust of cold wind, the New Year's bells quietly arrived without us even realizing it.

Work within the River Kingdom also came to a temporary standstill.

From top to bottom, everyone is joyfully preparing to embrace this lively New Year.

The day before New Year's Day.

After breakfast, Ayane Amamiya accepted Minami's invitation and went skiing with the three little ones on the riverbank outside the city.

Because the Land of Rivers is adjacent to the Land of Rain, several large rivers flow through its territory.

It's a cold winter day.

These rivers had long since frozen over, and the slopes of the dikes on both sides were covered with a layer of snow, which, after being compacted slightly, turned into a natural snowfield.

Ayane Amamiya is particularly sensitive to the cold.

So before she went out, she deliberately wrapped herself up in a fluffy blanket, only revealing her small face above the scarf. Xiao Nan carried a ski mat and followed closely beside the girl.

From a distance, they look like two adorable penguins who have just learned to walk.

On the contrary, the Nagato and Yahiko brothers, after entering puberty, disliked this bulky attire. Even when it was snowing lightly, they would coolly wear only a single layer of clothing and rely on their superior ninja physique to endure it.

We left the city gate, but hadn't arrived at our destination yet.

The four of them only had to look from a distance to see that there were quite a few people on the embankment.

There are clearly many people who share the same thoughts as them.

Men, women, and children were all there on the riverbank, their laughter rising and falling, creating a joyful atmosphere.

Ayane Amamiya quickened her pace, climbed to a high point on the embankment, looked down, and exclaimed, "How lively it is!"

Xiao Nan, somewhat impatient, tugged at her sleeve: "Come on!"

The Land of Rain experiences continuous rain throughout the year.

This damp and cold environment means that there are not many ski resorts suitable for skiing there.

So strictly speaking, this is the first time the three little ones have ever been exposed to skiing since they were little!

"Don't rush, don't rush."

The girl waved her hand and then looked around at her surroundings.

Well, the surrounding trees are bare, and there's not much material suitable for making sleds.

Ayane Amamiya simply took out two air cushions from her storage roll, inflated them, and used them like tires, then laid a mat on top of them.

"Come on up! Ladies first!"

The girl chuckled, beckoned to Xiao Nan, and placed the soft, cuddly little girl onto the air cushion.

After walking and stopping frequently, the group finally found a brand new, sloping snow slope.

The slope here is tens of meters high and very steep, which is somewhat dangerous for ordinary people, so not many people come here.

Xiao Nan sat on the cushion, looking down at the vast expanse of white below, her expression becoming somewhat hesitant: "It's so high—"

"What are you afraid of? You're a ninja."

Ayane Amamiya pressed her down onto the mat and said, "Ready for takeoff?"

Xiao Nan hesitated for a moment, but finally hummed in agreement.

Ayane Amamiya stood behind the mat and pushed with all her might.

Launch control!

"ah!!"

The air cushion sped across the slope.

Xiao Nan felt her speed suddenly increase, the wind whistling in her ears, and she couldn't help but scream.

Strictly speaking, this speed is actually slower than a ninja's teleportation technique.

But the difference is that now she is half-lying and half-sitting on the air cushion, with nowhere to put her weight, and her body feels out of control.

That's getting a bit exciting.

Amidst screams, the several-dozen-meter slope vanished in an instant.

Xiao Nan carved a long trail across the river, leaving behind a long track.

Yahiko immediately became interested as well.

He quickly sat down on the mat, gesturing for his good friend Nagato to push him from behind, while shouting, "Nagato, me too! Remember to use all your strength!"

Nagato nodded thoughtfully and hummed in agreement.

The boy came up behind Yahiko, his palm facing the ski mat.

Shinra Tensei, unleashing full power!

Whoosh!

Yahiko didn't just launch himself; he took off completely!

"Ahhhhh!"

The boy, along with the air cushion beneath him, flew high into the air, forming a parabola, from the top of the hill.

Xiao Nan, who had just stopped on the river in the distance, looked up and was completely dumbfounded.

Even Ayane Amamiya was amazed.

She thought to herself: These two brothers, Yahiko and Nagato, are truly a pair of Tigger tigers and two fragile sharks—

One dares to speak, and the other dares to listen!

Nagato belatedly scratched his head.

He then realized that he might have used too much force.

The boy looked at Ayane Amamiya, hesitatingly asking, "Uh—should I pull Yahiko back?"

Ayane Amamiya placed her hand on her forehead, glanced at the flying figure in the distance, and calmly said, "No rush, let him fly a little longer, just think of it as riding a roller coaster—"

She stopped paying attention to Yahiko and instead created a shadow clone behind her.

The main body then pulled Xiao Nan, who had just returned, and sat down on the cushion again.

Xiao Nan's face was flushed; the lingering excitement from earlier hadn't faded, making her look incredibly cute.

Ayane Amamiya then pulled her into her arms and shouted, "Three, two, one!"

Xiao Nan, as if on cue, shouted in unison, "Take off!"

We took off for a whole afternoon at the ski resort.

As dusk fell, Ayane Amamiya led the three little ones home, still wanting more.

As soon as I opened the door, a fragrant aroma wafted towards me.

The kitchen was bustling with people.

The clanging of cleavers and cutting boards, and the sizzling of ingredients hitting the pan, could be heard from time to time.

Ayane Amamiya changed her clothes, washed her hands, and quickly ran to the kitchen to help.

This year's New Year.

It was still her and her little group who spent the time together.

However, compared to those people last year, there was one more person, Ye Cang, who refused to leave.

"How's the skiing going?"

Takenaka Rin was washing vegetables when she saw her come in and asked a question. Then, in a condescending tone, she said with disdain, "How old are you? You're still as playful as a little kid."

Ayane Amamiya casually broke off a crisp cucumber, chewed it, and then snorted, "Then I won't take you next time I go out."

.

"Who cares?"

Takenaka Ri grinned and made a face at her.

Ayane Amamiya retaliated by shaking the greens in her hand at her, sending out a spray of water droplets.

Mei Terumi, one of the head chefs, was busy at the stove when she saw the two girls slacking off and getting angry.

"Instead of wasting time fooling around here, you might as well go and cut up some meat for me."

With a fierce glare, she commanded, "You two, hurry up and chop up all that lean meat and make it into a topping! Remember, there can't be a single bit of fat on it; we'll need it later!"

Ayane Amamiya stuck out her tongue.

In an instant, they joined forces with Takenaka Rin.

"Sigh! Women are so troublesome!" The two exchanged a glance and complained in unison, but under Mei Terumi's watchful gaze, they obediently did as she said.

no way.

Since their cooking skills were only average, they could only do the food preparation work they were capable of.

Ayane Amamiya took the thawed lean meat and rinsed it under the sink.

A little turtle poked its head out of the pond again.

It opened its mouth wide, its eyes wide, seemingly waiting for a windfall.

Seeing this, Ayane Amamiya clicked her tongue in amazement and deliberately said, "Wrong? Who is so thoughtful? Knowing I've worked hard all year, they even bought an old turtle to make soup for me to nourish myself?"

The three-tailed beast was enraged.

It immediately transformed into Blastoise and weakly spat at her.

They relied on a small backdoor left when the seal was first placed.

Although the Three-Tails' main body is sealed inside Takenaka Ri's body, it can still project a small amount of chakra outwards and send its consciousness out as well.

This principle is somewhat similar to the ninja's shadow clone technique.

However, the difference is that the three-tailed turtle's clones cannot move freely, and cannot even stray too far from Takenaka Rin. At the same time, the clones' power is extremely limited, making them almost no different from some ordinary pet turtles.

When Takenaka Ri saw Isobu, she picked it up with a somewhat annoyed expression.

"She ran off to steal food again when I wasn't looking!"

The girl tapped the three-tailed turtle's shell with her knuckles and threatened, "If you keep disobeying me, I won't let you out again!"

The three tails quickly retracted into their shells, feigning death and remaining motionless.

Ayane Amamiya watched with glee.

She seized the opportunity and decisively turned the tables, chuckling, "Is it possible that pets actually resemble their owners?"

Takenaka Riko furrowed her brows and brandished her arms: "You mean I'm a glutton?"

Ayane Amamiya hummed in response, snapped her fingers, and said nothing.

The two of them couldn't stay quiet at all, and soon they started picking on each other, arguing endlessly.

I heard those two guys start arguing again.

Mei Terumi, standing in front of the stove, looked helpless and completely gave up on the idea of ​​disciplining him.

Seeing her sullen expression, Nonou, who was standing next to her, laughed and said, "I think it's quite nice to have this noise and commotion—"

We've had our reunion dinner.

As usual, Ayane Amamiya had no intention of staying up all night. She stayed up until midnight and went to bed on time to prepare for sleep.

She was wearing brand new pajamas, rolling around on the soft sheets, not very sleepy.

In the night outside the window.

The New Year's bells have already rung.

This marks another year forward for Ayane Amamiya compared to her past self.

Fourteen years old (actual age), fifteen years old (traditional age), sixteen years old (traditional age) —

Rounding down, I've realized I'm almost twenty!

Ugh!

I'm really getting old —

With this thought in mind, the girl silently activated the long-forgotten control panel.

Several months have passed since the Battle of Loulan ended.

Ayane Amamiya's stats haven't changed much.

Only the bloodline entry has seen new growth compared to the past.

[Entry: Whirlpool Bloodline (Red)]

[Action Effect: Your vitality is greatly increased! Your maximum chakra and recovery speed are currently increased by 1500%]

[A significant increase! Your perception of natural energy has been enhanced to a certain extent!]

[Currently available achievement points: 46770]

[Current available Ninja World Legendary Points: 2]

Compared to five months ago, his chakra has increased by 50% —

Ayane Amamiya's gaze lingered on the number "1500%".

She had a feeling.

As one ages, one's own bloodline is about to reach the threshold of qualitative change.

And that long-awaited Yang Dun entry is probably not far off.

Actually, as long as they are ninjas.

Therefore, regardless of his strength, once he refines his chakra, he naturally possesses some of the characteristics of Yang Release.

However, the Yang Release nature contained in this naturally condensed chakra is too thin to exert any significant effect.

Even a ninja clan like Akimichi, who has mastered Yang Release ninjutsu.

It also requires external conditions to cultivate (accumulating fat from a young age), and even the assistance of family secret medicines.

Ayane Amamiya is currently at this stage.

She previously used Yang Release to heal Kabuto's eyes, and with the help of external conditions (the Ten-Tails fragments from Hoshigakure and Wood Release chakra), she completed the eye transplant surgery.

Once the Yang Dun (阳遁) terminology is condensed...

Then she can break free from this constraint and no longer need any external force.

At that time, the girl will be able to use the power of Yang Release anytime, anywhere, at will.

"It's even possible that the cells and tissues inside the girl's body might transform into a super-creature unlike anything ever seen before, just like Hashirama Senju's cells."

"With my own vortex physique, I can master the power of Yang Release in as little as six months, or at most two years."

Therefore, I need to seek new breakthroughs in Yin Escape techniques.

Ayane Amamiya closed the control panel and pondered to herself.

If we don't rely on external things like the Ten-Tails.

If she wants to master the power of the Six Paths, she needs to comprehend the seven attributes of wind, fire, water, earth, thunder, yin, and yang on her own, and finally condense the Seven Attribute Bloodline Net!

Let's set aside the difficulty of synthesizing the final step, Bloodline Limit.

Just mastering the prerequisites for the seven attributes is enough to stop 99.99% of people.

Let's go back to Yin Dun.

In the ninja world, ordinary Yin Release ninjutsu is actually quite common.

For example, many of the Uchiha clan's genjutsu, such as Sai's Super Beast Imitation Painting in the original anime, are all examples of the application of Yin Release chakra.

But to reach the Six Paths level in Yin Release—

That would be extremely difficult!

Madara Uchiha developed the Rinnegan decades after faking his death at the Valley of the End.

Before that, his eyes were the pinnacle of the Uchiha clan—the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan!

Therefore, the goal is to synthesize the Bloodline Limit and master the power of the Six Paths.

Ayane Amamiya's Yin Release abilities were at least no weaker than Madara Uchiha's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan at the time!

It seems I need to find a way to condense the Yin Escape (陰遁) entry —

Unfortunately, the illusions within the Land of Rain are too mediocre. Even if I learn these common techniques, the corresponding Yin Release entries won't appear on my character panel.

The girl thought to herself: I need to find some high-level Yin Escape cultivation techniques—if only I had an old man with me!

This highlights the importance of the village's rich heritage.

If she had been born in Konoha, she could naturally have found a way to learn the Yin Release training experience of her predecessors from Nara, Yamanaka, Kurama, or even the Uchiha clan through exchanges of benefits.

However, the Land of Rain is poor in resources.

Even the demigod Hanzo of the Salamander had almost no knowledge of Yin Release chakra.

Do you expect me to go to Konoha and steal it?

Ayane Amamiya thought about it for a moment and felt that it wasn't a bad idea.

Konoha is a place of outstanding people and abundant resources, and its foundation is the deepest in the vast ninja world.

The girl's mind raced.

She was trying to come up with a reliable strategy.

Suddenly, everything went dark.

The bedroom light was turned off.

Then, a slender, dark figure slipped into her bed, casually wrapped her arm around hers, and whispered, "Guess who I am?"

Ayane Amamiya was slightly taken aback.

Is this not easy?

She aimed her arm at the target and groped her way towards the shadowy figure.

The man reacted as if he'd been electrocuted, letting out a soft moan before forcefully shoving the girl away, exclaiming in embarrassment and anger, "What are you doing?!"

Ayane Amamiya coughed, and based on the feedback from her touch, confidently declared, "—Mei, is that you?"

Terumi Mei sneered.

Although her identity had been exposed by the other party, she felt no joy at the moment.

Mei Terumi roared, "Tell me honestly, why are your movements so practiced?!"
