The Strongest Mercenary of Naruto

Chapter 383 [Protection of Ascetics]

The enlightenment that suddenly appeared in Kazuhiko Uchiha's mind was a message from the will of the RE0 world.

400 years ago, the Envious Witch Satila went into a runaway state because of the out-of-control witch factor, devouring half of the world and causing an irreparable impact on the origin of the world, making the world's will hostile to the owners of the witch's power, and no longer granting them protection Ability.

The witches' powers of different strengths are contained in the bodies of monsters, so after Uchiha Kazuhiko kills them, he will be thanked and gifted by the will of the world, and according to the amount of witches' powers in the monsters, he will get the corresponding source Power.

After beheading the white whale with more witch power in his body, Uchiha Kazuhiko obtained the same amount of original power, plus the original power accumulated before, met the quantity requirements for forming a guardian.

Under the transformation of the world's rules, the original power in Uchiha's body finally transformed into an exclusive protective ability bestowed by the RE0 world on Uchiha Kazuhiko.

Uchiha Kazuhiko's exclusive protection, named "Ascetic's Protection", has three effects.

First, ascetics practice diligently and unremittingly, which can speed up the speed of daily practice and play the role of getting twice the result with half the effort;

Second, ascetics have a strong will, so they are immune to most spiritual magic;

Third, ascetics will practice in different environments, so they can quickly adapt to any difficult environment, and will not affect their combat effectiveness due to changes in the environment.

The appearance of this kind of protection ability is probably because Uchiha Kazuhiko has been focusing on cultivation after entering the RE0 world, so the world will reward him with this kind of protection ability that it thinks is most suitable for Uchiha Kazuhiko.

……

When the white whale slaying battle was over, everyone cheered with tears of joy. After their emotions stabilized a bit, Crusch ordered everyone to rest here, and cut some white whale meat to make food to help everyone recover their exhausted physical strength.

Uchiha Kazuhiko opened up his appetite, devoured the white whale meat for dozens of people, used exercises to speed up the transformation, replenished the energy consumed during the battle, and used the ability of protection to practice.

When cutting the white whale's meat, Uchiha Kazuhiko found an energy crystal similar to the magic core near the heart of the white whale, and quietly put it into the system space.

The next morning, according to the agreement, Crusch handed over most of the joint forces to Subaru Natsuki to fight against the Witch Cult, and he and Rem led the wounded back to the capital for repairs.

"Thanks to everyone's efforts, we were able to successfully crusade against the white whale. However, the matter is not over yet. The Witch Cultist who is involved with the white whale is preparing to launch an attack on the Mazas Territory."

Nayuki Subaru gathered everyone and held a pre-war meeting to reveal his real purpose in participating in the crusade against the white whale.

Mimi's younger brother Tibi, who is a think-tank role in the Iron Fang mercenary group, is a military adviser. After listening to Natsuki Subaru's words, he asked: "Is the information that the white whale is related to the Witch Cult reliable?"

Recalling what happened in the previous reincarnations, Natsuki Subaru said with great certainty: "Yes, I met the Witch Cult before, and that's when I heard about it."

"Although the evidence is not conclusive, there are many coincidences between the appearance of the white whale and the activities of the Witch Cult." Wilhelm, who had been tracking the intelligence of the white whale before, confirmed the news for Subaru Natsuki.

"The Witch Cultists are lurking in the Warcraft Forest in Mezas, so our next move is to rush there as soon as possible, and go straight to Huanglong before the movements here are exposed, and get rid of the group of Witch Cults who come to trouble you .”

Natsuki Subaru told everyone what he knew, and then proposed a plan to use the prophetic advantage in intelligence to strike first before the Witch Cult launched an attack.

A knight of the Knights raised his right hand and asked cautiously: "If there is a war with the Witch Cultist, how will the safety of the villagers be guaranteed?"

"I have asked Miss Anastasia and Mr. Russell to make a deal with the nearby merchants, and let them take the villagers of Alam Village out for refuge on the condition that Earl Roswaal buys their goods at a high price." Yue Subaru was already prepared and answered immediately.

Seeing that Subaru Natsuki had already made arrangements, everyone approved Subaru Natsuki's plan, ended the pre-battle meeting, and set off for Mazas.

After returning to the vicinity of Alam Village, Natsuki Subaru made an arrangement: "Yurius, please go to the village to protect the villagers who have not had time to evacuate, Captain Ricardo, go to the World of Warcraft Forest to clear up the ordinary Witch Cultists. give it to you."

"I see, be careful." Julius gave a knight salute to everyone, and led his knights to Alam Village.

"Haha, boys, come with me." Ricardo drew out the broadsword on his back, and led the mercenaries of the Iron Fang Mercenary Group into the Demonic Beast Forest.

After they left, Natsuki Subaru took Kazuhiko Uchiha, Wilhelm, and Mimi to the stronghold of the Witch Cult to deal with the most difficult lazy bishop.

After a arduous search, Natsuki Subaru found the stronghold of the Witch Cult hidden in the Warcraft Forest, and outside the cave of the stronghold, he met the lazy bishop that he hated to the bone—Petikius Roman Nikon Ti.

The lazy bishop felt the strong "witch fragrance" on Subaru Natsuki, and mistakenly thought that Subaru Natsuki was an arrogant bishop who had never appeared. While welcoming him, he wanted to confirm his identity through Subaru Natsuki's Gospel.

"The Gospel. I used it as a pot holder, but it got dirty and I threw it away."

With the protection of Uchiha Kazuhiko and the others, Natsuki Subaru was full of confidence, and immediately turned on the mocking mode to tease the lazy bishop.

"The proof of favor, the power of laziness, [the invisible hand]!"

The fanatical belief was insulted by Natsuki Subaru, which made the lazy bishop furious. He used his power [Invisible Hand] to attack Natsuki Subaru, but Natsuki Subaru who could see the [Invisible Hand] avoided him.

"How is it possible?! You can actually see my [Invisible Hand]?!"

At the moment when the lazy bishop was shocked, Uchiha Kazuhiko and others who had been hiding in the dark decisively launched an attack.

Mimi's three brothers and sisters were the first to strike, and they jointly launched a sound wave, knocking down the entrance of the cave, cutting off the lazy bishop's retreat;
Wilhelm then arrived, and under Natsuki Subaru's instructions, cut off the [invisible hands] that emerged from behind the lazy bishop;
Uchiha Kazuhiko, who made the last move, burst into the strongest state in an instant, and before the lazy bishop had time to react, he cut him in two with a single knife.

Seeing the death of the lazy bishop, Kazuhiko Uchiha searched his body first, found the target of this mission [Gospel] from it, and found an excuse to take it for himself.

After getting the [Gospel Book], Kazuhiko Uchiha immediately heard a notification that the task was completed, and when he was about to return to the world of fighting, he heard a new notification from the system.
