This was also for the safety of the minister. Otherwise, Shiro and his men were already at a disadvantage, and they would have to spare some attention to take care of the minister, since their mission was to protect him.

This created too much pressure, which is why Shiro and his group adopted this method. The ministers were not stupid either, and they cooperated very well with Shiro's arrangements.

Meanwhile, to ensure the minister's safety, Gray Snake did not leave the city with Shiro, but stayed by the minister's side.

Although the Gray Snake has little combat power, it knows a high-level Ninjutsu, the Reverse Summoning Technique!

This was the reason they felt comfortable leaving the minister in the city; if anything went wrong, Gray Snake could immediately summon Shiro Lang through spirit medium.

At that time, Shiro will be able to activate the energy stored in his Magic Crest to fight. Shiro with sufficient Chakra and Chakra lacking Shiro can be said to be completely different.

Simply put, he's Shiro with plenty of Chakra, a low-powered version of Gilgamesh, with countless Noble Phantasm flying everywhere, definitely Jonin power!

Even Elite Jonin can be killed!

Of course, that's only as a last resort. Currently, the energy storage of Shiro's Crest is insufficient to achieve the effect Shiro wants. Therefore, it would be best not to use it if possible.

And so, after Shiro and his men went back to pick up the minister, they began their actual return journey.

The journey was much calmer this time. Although Shiro didn't know what the ministers were talking about, he figured it wasn't anything too important, and it wouldn't warrant sending anyone else to carry out the mission.

Otherwise, this task wouldn't have been assigned to Shiro and his group.

Of course, that's what they said, but Shiro and his men remained vigilant throughout the journey, knowing that caution was always the best policy.

However, this was mainly within the Land of Rivers. After entering the Land of Fire, Shiro and his group relaxed a lot, since there weren't many people who dared to run wild in the Land of Fire.

It's important to know that the borders of the Land of Fire are regularly patrolled by ninjas, whose minimum strength is at least Chunin! Moreover, there are quite a few ninjas like Kosuke who are "all talk and no action."

Of course, not as extreme as Kosuke. He's the only one with the strength of Genin Jonin, and he's still the strongest Genin. However, there are quite a few chunin who Jonin the strength of Chunin.

Therefore, under their protection, the Land of Fire is truly peaceful, with only a few bandits and outlaws at most. As for escaped ninjas, they have long been wiped out.

Therefore, along the way, Shiro and the others mainly focused on cultivation. After all, the minister's speed was really slow. What should have been a week's journey for Shiro and the others took them a whole month.

Of course, along the way, Shiro and his companions encountered quite a few bandits. Some they ignored, while Shiro they used as practice targets.

Of course, while he killed them, Shiro did not use them as human sacrifices for the Manda. Call it saintly or hypocritical, Shiro would rather kill them than let them be eaten by the Manda.

The reason they used the village prisoners was because, like Shiro, their hands were stained with blood—from enemies and innocent people alike.

Shiro felt that if it were them, he could accept it, at least he would feel better.

Although he spent most of the past month training, Shiro didn't actually make much progress. After all, knowledge is something that is accumulated slowly and there are no shortcuts.

At most, they can only accelerate their absorption by relying on Medea's experience.

Actually, Medea's experience is not as helpful to Shiro as it used to be, because Medea is Divine Era Magus, although her Magecraft skills are indeed profound.

However, the Modern Magecraft she learned was ultimately not from the same system as Shiro's. If it were her, Modern Magecraft would naturally be no challenge for her.

However, Shiro was merely a fake and could never truly Analysis Modern Magecraft like Medea. Therefore, as Shiro delved deeper into the study of Magecraft...

The effects of the Rule Breaker will gradually diminish until they disappear.

In fact, Shiro had better options, because Heroic Spirit are not only from the past, but also from the future, and there must be Heroic Spirit who have mastered Modern Magecraft.

However, Shiro never went looking for the relevant Noble Phantasm, especially after Shiro mastered the Mana Burst through the King's Sword, he never even considered it.

That's right, Shiro's purpose is quite clear: he wants Medea's High-Speed Incantation skill!

This is why Shiro insisted that Projection the Rule Breaker, because he also wanted to learn the Age of Gods Magecraft, but he lacked an important condition.

Why have Modern Magecraft abandoned Age of Gods Magecraft? Do they truly not understand the power of Age of Gods Magecraft?

No, they knew, but they were also helpless. The loss of the Age of Gods Magecraft was not only due to the changes in the world, but more importantly, to the extremely high difficulty of the skill of High-Speed Incantation!

High-Speed Incantation is a very difficult skill to master; basically, since the end of the Age of Gods, almost no Magecraft has been able to master it again.

High-Speed Incantation are a key element of the Age of Gods Magecraft, because without this skill, the casting time for Age of Gods Magecraft is extremely slow.

Therefore, Modern Magecraft gradually replaced the Age of Gods Magecraft. After all, even if your Magecraft has the power of a nuclear bomb, what good is it if your opponent can cast dozens of Magecraft to interrupt you during the casting time? No matter how powerful it is, it's useless if you can't cast it.

Shiro is currently in the Shinobi World, where he is not bound by the Counter Force. He has already checked the database and knows that he can use the Age of Gods Magecraft here!

However, given his own limitations, learning simpler Modern Magecraft would be more suitable for him.

However, this does not mean that Shiro has given up on the Age of Gods Magecraft. He also has ambitions. Besides, although he is skilled in close combat, mastering High-Speed Incantation would only benefit him.

This will have a great effect on his ability to activate his Reality Marble in the future.

However, he couldn't learn it by relying solely on the system's information; he could only place his hopes on the Rule Breaker. This was why he persisted in Projection the Noble Phantasm.

Of course, so far, it has been completely useless.

Fortunately, he wasn't in a hurry. The Rule Breaker was still very effective at assisting him. According to Shiro's estimation, the Rule Breaker should still be effective until he built the Magecraft Workshop.

Therefore, Shiro has plenty of time. After all, it's useless for him to use High-Speed Incantation now. His Projection and enhancement are instantaneous, and there are almost no Magecraft that require chanting.

On the other hand, Taichi's progress is much greater than Shiro's.

First of all, his mastery of the Nature Transformation of Lightning Release Chakra is quite good; he's already on the verge of mastering it, just one step away. Well, after a few more steps, he'll be able to use it proficiently.
