Chapter 286 Return to the Village
"Hey, who's up there? Please take off your cloak and cooperate with our inspection. Thank you for your cooperation."
At the gate of Konoha, two cloaked figures suddenly appeared, one tall and one short. To be honest, this outfit was very suspicious, but Konoha was extremely powerful at the moment, and they were confident that no one would dare to cause trouble.
Therefore, it was only out of courtesy that these two people were asked to cooperate with the inspection, and the tone was also tried to be as gentle as possible. After all, a great power should behave like a great power.
However, the cloaked men didn't seem to take the two guards' words to heart and were still immersed in their own sighs.
Of course, at this time they also knew that these two cloaked men were not simple. They might be enemies of the village, or they might be elders who had returned from traveling in the village, or they might be visitors from other villages.
However, no matter which one it was, they could not neglect or relax, so they did not continue to disturb them, but watched quietly from the side.
At the same time, while secretly making preparations, he signaled the sentry to immediately open the barrier and sound the alarm if anything went wrong. After that, the two of them stood in front of the door vigilantly, looking at the two people in front of them.
After a while, the shorter one among them said, "Teacher, is this Konoha?"
"Ah, this is Konoha. Let's go. They have been waiting for a long time. There is still a long time to come. You will have many opportunities to learn more."
"Yes, I understand, teacher."
After saying that, they walked towards the gatekeepers. Although the two gatekeepers heard the voice of the shorter one, which was a little girl, and it should be the cute kind, they liked to cough and were on guard.
After all, the ninjas who died because of this have long been recorded in textbooks. Therefore, he was not distracted and stared at them closely without relaxing at all.
"Please take off your hat and verify your identity first. Please cooperate with us. Thank you."
"If you have any ill intentions, our Konoha is no less powerful."
"Haha, sorry for causing you trouble."
After a chuckle, the tall cloaked man took off his hat first, revealing his white hair, and at the same time, he reached out and patted the short man.
"Take it off."
"Yes, teacher."
When the hat was taken off, the two of them felt disillusioned.
How should I put it? They originally thought this would be a cute girl, but in the end, it turned out to be someone wearing sunglasses, and a very tacky pair of sunglasses.
However, due to their good upbringing, the two did not show it. After all, they were the face of Konoha, and it was impossible for them to not have some skills. This position was not easy to hold.
A fixed salary, leisurely work, and no danger.
After all, if the security guard is dangerous, then everything you do in Konoha is dangerous. Therefore, the competition for this job is still very fierce. Naturally, the abilities of those who do this job are not bad either.
Just like now, the white-haired man, Shiro, didn't notice it, but said with a hint of apology:
"I'm sorry to bother you two. I'm Emiya Shirou. I went out for training three years ago. This is my disciple, Emiya Tsuki. However, due to some reasons, my appearance has changed a little."
"You can go and inform Kushina or Hokage first and let them check it out. Thank you."
"That's not impossible, but you can't enter the village. You have to wait here for notification. After all, we've only heard of your name, and you brought other people with you, so please forgive us for any offense."
"No, no, it's my duty. I understand."
Afterwards, they notified the secret sentry to go back and report the news, while they continued to guard Shiro and the others. At the same time, they did not remove the instant opening mode of Konoha's defense barrier.
As long as Shiro made any move, they could instantly activate the barrier, instantly lowering the barrier that originally only covered the sky and sealing the door.
Silang had no opinion on their precautions. Just as he had just said, it was his duty. It was not that they were unwilling to let go, but that there was indeed a problem with Silang himself.
The forehead protector that proves identity is of no use at this time, because it actually provides a secret code, and then they can find the corresponding ninja information based on it for comparison and confirmation.
Unfortunately, during this year's training, although Shiro had made great progress, with both his mind's eye and clairvoyance upgraded to B-level, the effect of the Heroic Spirit Card had been basically completely exhausted.
The only thing it's slightly useful for now is the slight enhancement it provides to Shiro's projection magic, but it's better than nothing.
After a year of special training, Shiro feels that he should now have the combat capability of an elite jonin, but his current reference target is Kameda, with whom he had fought before, so there is some water mixed in.
First of all, Konoha and Kirigakure have different selection criteria for elite jonin. At the same time, Shiro already knows almost all of Kameda's information, and this has a great impact on the strength of the ninja, so Shiro dare not make a conclusion.
However, Silang was also very satisfied with this progress. It can only be said that there are as many rewards as there are risks. After all, in this process, Silang almost lost himself several times, but fortunately he woke up in time.
It is for this reason that Shiro's hair turned completely white. According to Shiro's calculations, all plans should have been completed when his hair was half white. Unfortunately, he still underestimated the Heroic Spirit. Fortunately, only his hair turned white, and the rest was not affected.
It can be said to be a blessing in disguise.
But there is one thing that is quite regrettable. Shiro has not yet found a treasure that can give him the high-speed divine words, and he doesn't even have the high-speed chant. I can only say that Shiro's luck C is really not good.
Therefore, Shiro still has to take time out every day to look for the treasure. He no longer requires high-speed divine words, and he is satisfied with high-speed chanting.
Of course, it is not reliable to just rely on this shortcut. At present, Shilang takes time out every day to learn the high-speed divine words. Although it is difficult, it is better than sitting and waiting for the big pie.
These are basically what Shiro gained in exchange for his black hair. Although the progress is encouraging, it also leads to the current situation. He does not match the information left in the village.
Therefore, this can only be identified by a ninja who is familiar with him. Most people have only heard of his title as the disciple of Hatake Sakumo, and not many people have seen him.
What's more, he has changed a lot now. His skin has become a little darker, maybe because of the Heroic Spirit Card or the weather.
At the same time, because Shilang was in a period of rapid growth, his height, weight and appearance had changed significantly, and ordinary people really couldn't tell him apart, so it was natural that he was stopped.
Therefore, Silang and A Yue ignored the eyes of passers-by and waited together at the village gate where people came in and out from time to time.
