Don't Want to Think of a Title...
After saying that, Shiro left the backyard, leaving Kakashi alone to think, without disturbing him any further.
He believed Kakashi would make the right decision.
Sure enough, Kakashi came to find Shiro just before school started.
"I've thought it through. For the sake of your mission, I'll postpone my graduation."
Shiro wasn't surprised, after all, he was Kakashi, but Shiro guessed that was just a reason he was using to convince himself.
The task Shiro gave Kakashi was actually just a pretext. As long as Kakashi stayed at school, the two of them would inevitably run into each other, because Kakashi was a genius, and geniuses always attract attention.
Especially the gaze of young girls, which happens to be Obito's Achilles' heel, but it just makes things more difficult for Guy, which is a bit of a shame.
"Let's go then. It's been a long time since I've been back to the Ninja Academy. I'll go with you."
"Okay, let's go then, we don't have much time left."
"Oh, by the way, who is your teacher?"
"Morikai Higashimura."
"Him? I remember he was a pretty good teacher."
"You're also his student?"
"No, he only taught us a class, but he was a good teacher, and I remember him quite well, plus some other reasons."
"Yes, Father said the same thing."
"Yeah."
And so, the two chatted all the way to school before parting ways, because Shiro was going to find Morikai Higashimura, Kakashi was going to class, so they weren't going the same way.
A short while later, following his memories, Shiro arrived at the office. Shiro was very familiar with this place; he used to come here often after skipping classes, and he knew it very well.
"Hey, isn't this Shiro? What brings you here?" The only teacher among them asked upon seeing Shiro.
"Isn't this during a break from the mission? I came here to take care of some things. Hello, teacher." With that, Shiro bowed to her.
The person who asked the question was Saikawa, Shiro's homeroom teacher during his studies. Saikawa was a commoner ninja, so he had a good impression of Shiro, who also came from a commoner background. After all, Shiro was known as a little genius back then.
He just likes to skip classes a bit.
"Getting business done? You've come to the wrong place. This is for lower-level students; upper-level students are on the third floor."
"I'm not here to handle Chosuke's business. I'm here to see Mr. Higashimura because of Kakashi."
"White Fang Fang's son? Oh right, you became Lord White Fang Fang's apprentice, but I don't remember him making any mistakes, right?"
"No, not really. We're mainly here for his graduation application; it's too early now."
"If you're worried about his strength, there's no need to. We've already tested him, and he's fully capable of Genin."
"I know that. I know his strength very well. What I mean is that he's too young. He's only five years old now. I was only in school at that age."
"While geniuses are always extraordinary, it's still too early. Let him hone his skills for a few more years."
"That's right. Although their strength has reached the standard, they are still too young and not suitable for the darkness of ninjas." At this moment, a slightly familiar voice came from outside the door.
It was Morikai Higashimura, whom I had met a few times before.
"Teacher Higashimura, you've come at the right time. He's here about Kakashi." As Higashimura walked in, Saikawa pointed to Shiro and said.
"Hmm, you're Kakashi's?"
"Senior brother, Lord White Fang is indeed my master."
"Hmm? Emiya Shiro? The one who always skips class?"
"Looks like you finally remembered me, teacher, though it's not exactly a good field." Shiro waved his hand helplessly.
But you can't blame them, since Shiro used to come here all the time.
"Haha, about Kakashi, right? Actually, I've been thinking about this too these past few days. It seems that White Fang agreed to it back then, but I personally don't really recommend that he graduate so early."
"So I haven't submitted his graduation application yet. I've been wanting to find some time to talk to Lord White Fang White Fang, but he's been quite busy, so I haven't had the chance."
"Sakumo- sensei agreed? Hmm~ Then I'll leave this with Higashimura- sensei for now, and I'll discuss it with Sakumo- sensei tonight."
"Yes, it would be even better if it could be postponed."
"Mr. Sakumo should agree."
"You two should have finished discussing your matters, right?" Saikawa Chuan asked from the side.
"What's Saikawa? Is something the matter?"
Upon hearing this, Shiro also looked at Saikawa with curiosity.
"Um, I'd like to ask Shiro to do me a favor. Are you free?"
"Me? Helping is no problem, I have plenty of time right now."
"That's good. Let's go, we can talk as we walk, class is about to start."
"Well then, goodbye Higashimura -sensei. I'll leave Kakashi's matter to you."
"It's nothing, it's what I should do."
"Teacher Saikawa, what do you need my help with?" Shiro asked as he followed Saikawa.
"I hope you can show off your skills against those students and put their arrogance to a halt."
"Are you teaching Elite Class now?"
"Yeah, sigh, they're so hard to manage, they're all incredibly arrogant." She glanced at Shiro after saying that, "And they especially love skipping classes."
"Ha~ha~" Shiro didn't have much to say about this embarrassing past, he could only laugh awkwardly twice.
"But I can't use Chakra right now, so it might not be effective."
"Hmm? Are you injured? In that case, it's best not to move. Involving Chakra meridians is no small matter."
Upon hearing Shiro's words, Saikawa stopped and turned to look at Shiro with concern.
"Don't worry, Saikawa- sensei, I'm fine. I just can't use Chakra for the time being. I just had Taijutsu training this morning."
"Is that so? Then you should take care of yourself and get some rest. Your health is more important than your cultivation."
"Okay, I understand, Teacher Saikawa. Can I demonstrate Taijutsu to them later?"
"Hmm, this is it. Actually, they're not quite ready to be exposed to advanced Ninjutsu yet, so the more difficult and flashy your performance is, the better! I remember this is your forte, right?"
"Hey, teacher, please give me some face."
"Haha, let's go, it's just ahead."
Afterwards, Saikawa and Shiro stopped in front of a training field. As soon as the more than 30 students inside saw Saikawa, they immediately stood up and lined up.
Seeing their serious expressions, Shiro glanced at Saikawa and thought that Saikawa's statement about it being difficult to work was probably an exaggeration.
"The response was not bad, but you're still too lax. Haven't you always thought that the basics you're learning now aren't important? Now, I've found one of your seniors to guide you."
After saying that, Saikawa walked to the side and gave his seat to Shiro.
Shiro first smiled at Rin and the others in the crowd, then said, "My name is Emiya Shiro. Do you find the training here boring?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a shill. I used to be a student of Teacher Saikawa, just like you, and I skipped classes Tenten."
What is this kid up to?! Saikawa swore that if her students hadn't been there, she would have torn Shiro to shreds!
Just Saikawa was getting angry, he heard Shiro say something else.
I'm manually asking for recommendations (,,ω,,)
