Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

However, although Wood's magic did not wipe out the entire wolf pack, it at least killed off a third of the red demon wolves.

Furthermore, his primary purpose in using this magic was not to defeat his opponent, but to support Senis's side.

If you look closely, you'll see that because of the recent ground fissure, Senis, Wood, and the wolf pack's location have been completely separated.

If the wolf pack wanted to continue attacking Senis and her companions, they would have to cross a huge crevice in the middle, with sharp stone spikes scattered below.

The chasm was more than ten meters wide, and ordinary dire wolves could not leap across it at all. As for the wolf king, Wood would not give it any chance to cross!

The previous large-scale earthquake inevitably resulted in many lone dire wolves appearing near Senis and her group.

But given Senis's skill level, she should be able to handle ordinary dire wolves on her own.

Having resolved his worries, Wood began to take a serious look at the one-horned wolf king and the remaining demon wolves before him.

The aura of ordinary demonic wolves wasn't strong, and they weren't difficult to deal with, but the wolf king, the leader of the pack, seemed to be at the level of an advanced swordsman, and it also seemed to possess a certain level of intelligence.

"howl------!"

With a loud wolf howl, the red wolves around Wood pounced on him. This time, they were smarter and instead of charging in one direction in a dense formation, they scattered and surrounded Wood from all sides.

Moreover, this time the wolf king did not choose to stand idly by as before. Instead, when the wolf pack charged toward Wood, it raised its head and quickly condensed a huge fireball in its mouth.

The fireball was powerful enough to rival a mid-level spell, and because it was a magical beast, the wolf king did not chant any incantations.

Although it took a little time to gather magic power, it was obviously much faster than the spellcasting speed of a mage.

A fireball radiating intense heat scorched the air as it flew towards him. With the idea of ​​conserving magic power as much as possible, Wood did not choose to withstand the attack head-on. Instead, he relied on his excellent physical abilities to leap high into the air and dodge the attack.

Because he jumped away from his original location, the dire wolves that had pounced on him missed their target. Furthermore, the wolf king's fireball not only failed to harm Wood, but also affected his own minions.

Chapter 262 The Protagonist in the Fairy Tale

As the fireball exploded, a large area of ​​fire spread directly across a radius of nearly ten meters on the ground.

Wood, who was on high up, looked at the scene on the ground and thought that the small fry had been cleared away. But soon, he was shocked to find that the red dire wolves were not only not dead, but had become extremely excited!

The orange flames did not inflict any effective damage on these red wolves, not even a burn.

When the flames struck the demon wolves, the flames were immediately absorbed by their red fur, making their aura stronger and their emotions more excited!

"So that's how it is. No wonder the Wolf King attacked without regard for the lives of his underlings. It turns out you have a certain fire immunity and even the ability to absorb fire to strengthen yourselves."

Since using a borrowed knife to kill someone didn't work, Wood had no choice but to take matters into his own hands.

Wood flashed into the wolf pack and landed a punch directly in the waist of one of the wolves.

With a "crack" sound, Wood's fist shattered the wolf's spine, and its body crashed into the rock wall beside it, dead beyond any doubt.

Wolves are creatures with bronze heads, iron tails, and tofu waists. Wood's previous life as an adventurer gave him a wealth of experience fighting magical beasts.

Therefore, even when surrounded, Wood was still able to analyze the situation with extreme calm and handle various crises with ease.

Furthermore, facing the siege of a large number of demonic wolves, Wood's Observation Haki began to gradually recover and awaken.

A wolf pounced on Wood's blind spot from behind, expecting its claws to tear Wood's body apart quickly.

However, just as its claws touched Wood's back, a powerful spinning kick struck its head even faster than its claws.

The kick, which made a whooshing sound in the air, caused the wolf's head to deform violently, and even its sharp teeth fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the wolf's body flew out at high speed like a cannonball, leaving a spiderweb-like crater on the rock wall beside it.

The wolf probably never understood how the human had discovered its attack from behind. Did the human have eyes in the back of its head?

As Wood's martial arts skills became more and more formidable, the number of wolves on the field began to decrease sharply under his fists and feet.

Meanwhile, Norren and Aisha, who were not far away, were no longer afraid when they saw their brother displaying great power. Instead, they excitedly cheered and encouraged Wood.

Senis's side initially only had three or four ordinary dire wolves. Although she wasn't good at fighting, she was still a high-level mage, so she quickly dealt with the dire wolves.

However, just as she dealt with the wolf and was about to help Wood, she discovered that his child didn't need her help at all.

Even without his longsword, Wood's combat prowess was still astonishing. Ordinary dire wolves rarely lasted more than two rounds against Wood's fighting skills.

Moreover, Senis was surprised to find that Wood, who was considered to have far inferior magical talent to Rudy, was actually able to use advanced magic!

With his superior magic that requires no chanting, coupled with his own impressive fighting skills, Wood was already capable of putting up a fight even against the wolf king.

Senis was finally relieved by this assessment and began to wholeheartedly protect Noren and Aisha.

The two little ones were initially terrified because they had never seen anything like it before. However, when Wood began to wreak havoc, their admiration for him quickly overcame their fear.

Their strong yet gentle older brother gave them a great sense of security, and his handsome and ruthless killing of enemies made the two girls feel that their brother was the hero in a fairy tale.

Watching his underlings gradually die tragically at the hands of the human boy Wood, the Wolf King finally couldn't sit still any longer and began unleashing a barrage of fireballs.

However, Wood's Observation Haki had already awakened. Although the Wolf King's fireball magic was faster than the mage's, the several seconds of casting time was still as slow as a tortoise in Wood's eyes. Trying to hit him was nothing short of a pipe dream.

With his minions dwindling and his magic failing to hit the enemy, the Wolf King was feeling extremely frustrated when he suddenly saw Noren and Aisha cheering Wood on from the other side.

The wolf king, now possessing intelligence, narrowed its eyes and began to gather magical power in its mouth again, continuously compressing it.

However, just as Wood was preparing to predict the landing point of the Wolf King's magic and take action in advance, he discovered that the Wolf King's target was not him at all, but Senis and the others who were separated by the sinkhole.

Wood had been wary of the Wolf King's movements, because while the chasm could stop ordinary dire wolves, it could not stop the Wolf King.

However, Wood overlooked one point: the wolf king could use magic. Even if it didn't rush in personally, it could still use magic to attack Senis and the others from a distance!

The compressed magical fireball streaked through the air at high speed. If it flew toward Senis and the others at such a speed, Senis, who was completely unprepared, would not have had time to use her magic to defend herself.

"Six Styles - Shave!"

Wood, who was originally on the ground, suddenly appeared in the air above as a small crater appeared in the ground.

"boom------!"

With a loud explosion, the fireball burst in the air, and the scattered flames fell like fireworks.

Along with the scattered flames, a figure fell from the sky.

Senis had no time to defend against the Wolf King's magic, and even Wood wouldn't have had enough time to intercept it with magic at that distance.

Therefore, in order to avoid injuring Norren and the others, Wood had no choice but to forcibly suppress his not-yet-fully-matured body and use the "Six Styles: Shave," which exceeds the limits of the human body, and instantly appear on the trajectory of the fireball magic.

He crossed his arms in defense in front of him, directly using his body to block the wolf king's fire magic!

The powerful flames, close to those of a high-level spell, were directly hitting his face. Naturally, the feeling was unpleasant. In fact, it could be said that if Wood's body hadn't been trained over many years and was much stronger than that of an ordinary person, he would have been in serious trouble.

That spell would probably have killed the frail mage on the spot.

The scorching heat nearly destroyed Wood's shirt, revealing his well-defined upper body covered in numerous scars.

When Senis, who was not far away, saw the numerous wounds, large and small, on Wood's upper body, she covered her mouth in surprise.

Looking at the countless scars, big and small, on Wood's body, Senis really found it hard to imagine what had happened to Wood over the past few years.

Keep in mind that Wood is only 11 years old. Although Paul also has some injuries, they are nothing compared to Wood's current condition!

Chapter 263 Scars are a man's medals

It is said that the scars on a man's body are his medals, but seeing the scars all over Wood's body, Senis only felt heartache!

As a former healer for "Black Wolf's Fang," she could easily discern several wounds on Wood's body, suggesting that the situation at the time was likely fatal.

But Wood never mentioned any of this to his family.

Paul and Senis believed that Wood was exceptionally talented, mature in his dealings with others, and extremely knowledgeable, so they thought his career as an adventurer would be smooth sailing.

But upon seeing Wood's numerous wounds, Senis's face was filled with sorrow.

They spent Wood's money without a second thought, never considering what Wood had gone through to complete these tasks.

Over the years, that child has never changed. No matter what hardships and setbacks he encounters, he chooses to silently endure them and then show his best side to his family.

Having been exposed to fire magic at close range, comparable to high-level magic, Wood not only had his shirt completely burned off, but also suffered extensive burns on his skin.

However, soon, green magic circles appeared on Wood's body. As these magic circles appeared, his sunburnt skin peeled off rapidly at a visible speed, and fair skin grew back.

In order to transform this body into a superhuman as soon as possible and regain mastery of the otherworldly version of the "Six Powers," Wood frequently challenges himself.

Fighting monsters and bandits bare-handed was commonplace for him; sometimes he would even use magic to suppress himself and forcibly increase the difficulty for himself.

That's why Wood had those horrific scars all over his body.

Furthermore, in order to better enjoy the battle and avoid being killed by certain fatal wounds, Wood developed the current healing magic.

He inscribed magic circles on various vital points and limbs of his body and stored magic power within them.

Once the injuries on his body reach a certain critical point, the magic circle on his body will activate automatically, providing immediate healing to Wood's body.

This is why Senis saw multiple fatal wounds on Wood, yet he is still alive and well.

"Tsk, I was too careless before. I didn't expect that one shot would consume so much of my stored magic power."

"It's time to settle accounts for the depletion of my magic power and for scaring my cute little sister to tears!"

Seeing Wood take a powerful spell head-on without falling, and with his injuries healing at a visible speed, the Wolf King felt a sense of unease.

However, as the overlord of this level, and with his underlings watching, the Wolf King knew he couldn't back down. So, after a roar, he leaped down and charged at Wood himself.

An ordinary wolf is only a little over one meter long, while the wolf king is an astonishing three meters long. If the other wolves are no different from ordinary wolves, then the wolf king running at this moment is like a huge armored vehicle!

"Well done! Don't think you're invincible just because you're big. Even if you're a dragon, if you try to harm my family, I'll tear you apart with my bare hands!"
