Chapter 290 Tools and Disciples
After a while, Shidi came out and said with a cold face: "Okay, what are you doing crying at the door? Why don't you come back?"
Shi Lang looked at the tear marks at the corners of Shi Shi's eyes, smiled at him, and then followed suit: "Okay, Mom, I'm back, right? My hair is fine. Let's go in first, they're all watching."
Hearing this, Huizi glanced at the villagers who were gradually gathering around him, nodded, then glared at Shishi fiercely and walked towards the house.
Seeing this, Shiro and Shizi looked at each other and smiled at the same time. Then, Shizi turned around and went back, while Shiro stayed to close the door.
At this time, when Shilang turned around, he saw Ayue still staring in the direction where Huizi left. He smiled slightly and touched her head.
After feeling the touch on her head, A Yue raised her head and looked at Silang. Obviously, she was quite curious about Silang's behavior.
"Let's go. From now on, this will be your second home."
After saying that, just as Silang was about to reach out to close the door, he heard Ah Yue whisper, "I have a home. Wherever my brother is, that's my home."
Shilang's hand closing the door paused slightly, then continued, "So I said, this is your other home. I will make arrangements with A-Zu as soon as possible, and you can meet soon."
As he said that, Shilang squatted down, looked straight into Ayue's eyes, and reached out to hold her head.
"Ayue, remember, you are now my disciple, Shirou Emiya, not a tool. You are not, and neither is your brother. Not everything your brother says is right."
"I can't do it now. When I become stronger in the future, I promise you that I will bring your brother to Konoha as well. Believe me, okay? I brought you back just to show my appreciation."
"You are my disciple, Shirou Emiya, not some tool! This is your identity! No one can question it! Do you understand?"
A Yue stared at Silang blankly, opening her mouth, but in the end she said nothing, just nodded vigorously.
Shi Lang rubbed her head fiercely, put away the serious expression on his face, and put on a smile again: "Let's go, go in, don't keep them waiting."
"Um."
In fact, Silang had wanted to tell her these words for a long time, but there had never been a suitable opportunity. In addition, her brother, whom she trusted very much, was actively helping Silang brainwash himself, so it was useless to say them.
But now that I'm in Konoha, I have to take this seriously.
Shiro understood Azu's intentions, but they didn't want Shiro to give up on them. This was a very common idea in the ninja world, where many ninjas treated themselves as tools and allowed the village to control them.
Although it is weird, it does exist.
However, this kind of thinking is very dangerous in Konoha, because it is too easy to be subverted, just like the Room Release Ninja in the original work, who was a Root Ninja who thought of himself as a tool before.
After coming into contact with the third generation, he was quickly instigated by them.
Shiro doesn't think that A-Zu's brainwashing ability is stronger than theirs. Moreover, A-Yue's own abilities will be coveted by them, so they must be on guard against this.
At the same time, he personally was very disgusted with this idea. Before, because A Yue basically stayed with A Zu, Shi Lang's words might not have much effect.
But now it's different. It's difficult for A-Zu to continue to influence her, at least not before Shiro's replacement magic circle is completed.
Moreover, she will be able to meet more people here and become more independent-minded. A-Zu's influence on her will become smaller and smaller, and eventually, she will get rid of A-Zu's way of thinking.
Moreover, Shiro was not lying to her. After Shiro's position in Konoha was completely consolidated, he would call Azu back to Konoha, where his abilities could be better utilized.
But status is actually just strength. Shiro has done a lot of bad things so far, there is definitely no hope for him to become Hokage, and basically none of the remaining senior officials have this right.
After all, A-Zu is not young anymore, and if he is brought back, he still needs to be given important positions. This is not something that any senior official can do, except the Hokage.
But this is the ninja world after all. As long as you are strong enough, you can ignore many rules. Shiro does not need to be at the level of the first generation and Madara, he just needs to be able to crush most of the high-level ones.
In other words, Sakumo's strength is almost enough, but Shiro is still far from it at the moment. As the saying goes, ninjas are never good at hard fighting.
In this year, Shilang actually only made up for his shortcomings in skills, and he still has little knowledge in other aspects.
Just like the gap between him and the elite jonin mentioned before, the combat experience has now been made up through the mind's eye, but there is no combat experience, no assassination experience, and the defense problem just mentioned.
In general, there is still a lot of room for improvement, so Shilang should not panic. The time to panic is when you can't find the direction to move forward.
But there was no point in thinking about these things now, and they couldn't be changed in a short time. What was important now was family, so Shiro shook his head as he walked, shaking off the chaotic thoughts in his mind.
"I'm back."
As soon as Shiro walked in, he saw Keiko with red eyes and Shishi kneeling beside the table, and then he heard Shishi's words with a serious face.
He did not answer immediately, but sat down first, then faced Shishi and said with a smile:
"Ah, I'm back."
"I'm glad you're back."
Then, the two of them smiled in tacit understanding, but the reactions of the two people beside them were different. Ah Yue was curious and a little envious, but Huizi was different.
"That's enough, you two! You've been laughing like that since just now! Who am I? And you better shut up! Shiro's problem is more serious, and there are no outsiders around right now!"
"Uh, I get it. Just ask. It's not like I'm not forbidding you to ask."
"Huh?" Seeing that he was still complaining, Huizi immediately glared at him.
In an instant, Shiji stopped talking. Seeing this, Shiro smiled again.
"And you, what are you laughing at? Don't you want to explain your hair? I heard your Aunt Gardenia talk about a similar phenomenon, and it's not a good thing."
"Don't take shortcuts to gain power. They all end up badly."
"Don't worry, Mom. I know my limits. This isn't a negative influence."
"Although we don't know ninjutsu, your situation isn't normal, is it?"
"Yeah, Shiro, please don't do anything stupid."
Shilang saw that Huizi's frown not only did not relax, but Shizi also frowned and asked Shilang, so he sighed helplessly.
I could only spread my hands and say, "I really am not like that. Your son is not that stupid. Besides, you can ask Aunt Gardenia if their hair is shinier than mine."
"If you still don't believe me, I can go to the Ninja Hospital with you for a checkup when you have time. That will at least put your mind at ease, right?"
