Kitagawa Yu was deeply shaken.

According to the plot he knew, Kokushibo must have been besieged and beheaded by Muichiro Tokito and his three companions during the final battle of the main story, which allowed him to break through the limits of a demon and comprehend this move.

This was clearly far beyond his expectations, and it also put him in a desperate situation.

Faced with such a wide-ranging, indiscriminate attack, neither Thunder Flash, Rice Soul, nor Heat Realm Lightning were enough to withstand it, not even his yet-to-be-mastered Lightning Strike.

At the same time, even though his physical strength was higher than that of Himejima Gyoumei, he still couldn't withstand so many slashes.

If he fails to stop these moon blades, he will almost certainly die.

"Damn it! I don't want to crash here—Inari Soul!"

Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but roar in his heart, and dazzling golden lightning burst forth from his hands. The Ina Soul, which originally could only slash five times in an instant, surpassed its limit at this moment and directly increased to nine times in an instant.

But that's still not enough.

Although he shattered and blocked all the moon blades from the front and sides, he had no way to deal with the moon blades that came spinning rapidly from behind.

"Haha! I won!"

"Do you see that, Yoriichi? My choice was the right one!"

"Even if this young man's talent is more outstanding than yours or mine, and he has mastered the Breath of Thunder to such a level at such a young age, he ultimately lost because his physique is not as good as mine."

"If he also possessed a demonic body like mine, even if the attacks were twice as intense, tearing his body to pieces, he still wouldn't die and could continue fighting!"

Seeing Kitagawa Yu about to die under the moon blade, Kokushibo's feelings were incredibly complicated.

However, just as those moon blades were tearing through Kitagawa Yu's clothes and barely slicing through his skin, leaving him with no choice but to close his eyes and await death, a dark red spiritual light suddenly bloomed from between his eyebrows.

The rapidly spinning moon blade was instantly frozen in place by an invisible force, and then shattered like a glass falling to the ground.

"This is--"

"Murasame's power?"

Kokushibo's pupils dilated instantly.

The extreme killing intent condensed from the slaughter of millions of people, gods, demons, and monsters, even if only a little bit was leaked, was enough to almost suffocate people.

At the same time, it filled his head with questions.

How could a human, who doesn't look very old, possibly cultivate such terrifying killing intent?!

This is completely unscientific!

Meanwhile, Kitagawa Yu recognized the power of Murasame solely from the dark red mist emanating from his body, but he himself was completely unaffected.

Because at the same time that Murasame's power erupted, another seemingly weak but incredibly resilient force protected his soul, making him feel as if he were soaking in a hot spring.

"Where did this power come from?"

Kitagawa Yu was equally confused.

Murasame's power is easy to explain; it was likely left to him through a signed contract to protect him. As for this other power, he doesn't know where it came from.

Inside the main hall of the shrine in the main world, a goddess girl dressed in gorgeous clothes with a golden bell hanging on her chest stomped her foot in annoyance upon hearing Kitagawa Yu's mutterings, following the red thread wrapped around her fingertips, and kept muttering words like "idiot" and "baka".

As a result, the fruit on the offering table was almost knocked over, causing a flurry of activity.

Kitagawa Yu didn't continue to make moves because there was no need for it.

The sunlight that continued to stream down from above had already caused Kokushibo's body to decompose into more than half of its original size, and even his head was almost completely disintegrated.

This is hundreds of times more effective than beheading with a Nichirin Blade.

Meanwhile, Kokushibo, realizing that his attempt to take everyone down with him had failed, suppressed the doubts, confusion, and curiosity in his mind and quickly reminisced about the past.

Although the methods and processes were different, he ultimately reached the level that Yoriichi Tsugikuni had reached, which made him extremely satisfied.

A few seconds later, Kokushibo's body completely disintegrated in the sunlight, and Kitagawa Yuya simultaneously received four consecutive system notifications.

"."

Kitagawa Yu summoned the system panel and glanced at it.

Both Ubuyashiki Kagaya and Kitagawa Yu were praying for help to defeat Kokushibo, but Ubuyashiki Kagaya's prayer was 'expedited'. However, in terms of the power of wishes gained, Ubuyashiki Kagaya's prayer was less than half that of Ubuyashiki Amane, which left Kitagawa Yu speechless.

"Kaguya Ubuyashiki has really taken a wrong turn," Kitagawa Yu thought to himself.

Perhaps sensing that the threat had disappeared, the dark red mist that had been swirling around him retreated back into his body. Meanwhile, Elena, not bothering to put away the 'Sun Disc', flew down in a flash.

“You just now—”

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Thank goodness! That really scared me to death!"

Seeing Elena jump off the broom and run over anxiously, Kitagawa Yu felt a warmth in his heart and hugged her with a smile, feeling extremely grateful to Murasame.

If it weren't for the power left by Murasame that saved his life, he might have really died, and in that case, Elena and Chizuka would also be trapped in this world and unable to leave.

"Perhaps I should also increase my defenses."

Kitagawa Yu looked at the 68 points of wish power that had accumulated and pondered silently.

He had considered exchanging for some defensive abilities before, but at that time he had too little wish power. Compared to defense, offense was more cost-effective, since defense alone wouldn't be enough to defeat the enemy.

However, now that he has Thunder Breathing, Pain Curse, and the powerful weapon Murasame, his attack power is sufficient for the time being, so he can focus on improving his defense.

Based on his past considerations, Kitagawa Yu quickly identified three exchange options.

The first one is simply the exchange skill, Holy Shield.

It can be activated manually or automatically when in danger, granting 12 seconds of invincibility. After activation, you can teleport by shouting "Behold my invincible Hearthstone!"

It's worth mentioning that this teleportation was a free gift from the 'spell'.

Moreover, choosing this exchange method itself does not consume much Wish Power. Shortening the cooldown to three days only requires 35 Wish Power.

It offers excellent value for money.

The second way to exchange for it is to exchange for a Sharingan with three or more tomoe, as well as the matching ninjutsu 'Thousand Paper Cranes Instantaneous Movement' and 'Izanagi'.

Even a single Sharingan can still possess abilities such as genjutsu and copying.

The Thousand Paper Crane Instant Transformation skill allows the user to instantly transform into several red paper cranes and teleport a considerable distance when attacked, enabling them to evade most attacks.

Izanagi can transform all factors detrimental to himself, including death, into dreams, thus becoming immune to their harm.

The downside is that Izanagi requires pre-cast hand seals, which must be modified using the power of wishes to make it instant and passively triggered.

In addition, although Izanagi has no cooldown time, it will cause the Sharingan to go blind after activation, and a healing jutsu is required to restore it, which is equivalent to a one-month cooldown time.

Moreover, this exchange method requires a full 80 points of wish power, which is really too expensive.

The third way to exchange for it is to directly exchange for a Logia-type Devil Fruit and rely on its passively activated elemental transformation ability to avoid damage.

The drawbacks of this exchange method are obvious: losing the ability to swim and becoming unable to swim. Furthermore, the elementalized body is only immune to physical attacks, not magical or demonic attacks.

The advantage is that, in addition to providing elemental defense, Devil Fruits can also greatly enhance one's strength.

Of course, the amount of wish power required to exchange for a Devil Fruit is also considerable, with the cheapest costing three figures. For him at the moment, the cost-effectiveness is really a bit low.

"Forget it, I'll just exchange for Divine Shield! After all, it comes with a free Hearthstone teleport!"

Kitagawa Yu quickly made a decision, after all, he still had to deal with Muzan next, so he needed to get the survival skills first.

With 35 points of Wish Power deducted, Kitagawa Yu immediately felt a golden divine power flow through his body, eventually transforming into a golden skill rune that merged into his soul, allowing him to instantly master the combined skills of Divine Shield and Hearthstone Teleport.

At this moment, Kagaya Ubuyashiki, after checking on the injuries of Yoshiyuki Tomioka and the others, hurriedly came over, supported by his wife.

"Kitagawa-kun, thank you for taking down Kokushibo. Do you have any way to treat Giyu and the others' injuries? Especially Giyu, his injuries are too severe, he's almost dying."

Knowing that Kitagawa Yu's healing spell was still on cooldown, Elena stepped forward and said, "Leave the healing to me!"

Most witches in Elaina's world possess the 'Time Reversal' spell, a time magic similar to the Healing Charm in the Harry Potter world, which allows them to repair items and heal injuries by reversing time.

However, with Elena's current strength, she can only reverse the time for no more than a minute. It is obviously too late to heal Tomioka Giyu and the other three in this way.

Therefore, she could only use basic healing magic to stabilize the four people's injuries and allow them to recover slightly. The rest had to be left to the medical staff of the Hidden Department and the Butterfly Mansion.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"No, I'm just a little tired. Shall we go back tonight?"

"Why don't you stay here for the night?"

"But what about Chizuka's side?"

"Don't worry, I just sent a raven to deliver a message to them."

"Oh"

Elena quickly looked up at Kitagawa Yu, then pretended to look away nonchalantly, but a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, clearly indicating that she was not at peace.

In fact, if she had given it her all, it wouldn't have taken her an hour to treat the four of them; she could have done it in just a few minutes.

The reason it's been dragging on for so long is, of course, because she did it on purpose.

As a witch, of course I need to learn to take the initiative!

However, in order to prevent Muzan from suddenly attacking in the middle of the night, the two tacitly held onto their last line of defense.

Then, at the crack of dawn the next day, Kitagawa Yu was startled awake by a series of system notifications, and he was completely dumbfounded.

Kitagawa Yu quickly scanned all the system prompts, too lazy to calculate them one by one, and went straight to the column for accumulated wish power, and was immediately stunned by the dazzling '173'.
