Reincarnated as Shino from Naruto but I'm a Girl?

84. Shino’s Anime Filler, Episode 1: Shippuden Past Arcs: The Locus of Konoha – Team Tenten! Part 2

“This sucks! Su-uh-uh-uuucks!!!” I cry while we catch and fry up some fish from the nearby river for lunch.

“Sorry about the ‘new ninja tools,’” Naruko says while wrapping me in a comforting hug and stroking my hair. She’s a good girlfriend. “You don’t need anything like that to kick ass, though!”

That’s why I threw myself into Sealing Jutsu and exotic weapon proficiencies. Without a clan’s backing, secret family jutsu, or Kekkei Genki, I was likely to stay Genin fodder rather than even ascend to Chunin—let alone Jonin.

“That would be Shoseki-kun. He’s a fine lad, if a bit presumptuous, but the truth of the matter is that he’s an Academy dropout. We haven’t been able to afford a real expert in Sealing Jutsu since being exiled from the Village…”

I whip out my ink and brush. “Well, that won’t be a problem anymore.”
