Chapter 324 Emperor’s Chosen, Living Saint Kakashi (4K)

Kakashi died at the hands of the Chaos Astartes called Noise Marines, and his soul entered the Warp directly according to the rules of the Warhammer 40K world.

The so-called subspace is a setting of this world, also known as the High Heaven and the Sea of ​​Souls. It is a purely idealistic high-dimensional space. It is the destination of the souls of all living beings in the world after death. It is also a reflection of the real universe. Its size is immeasurable, and it is a completely different world.

However, the warp in the Warhammer 40K world has long been polluted and is filled with all kinds of monsters, evil gods, demons and other chaotic creatures. Once the soul enters that space, if it is not protected, it will become food, tools, and toys for torture and entertainment of the chaotic creatures in the warp, suffering eternal pain of being unable to live or die, with no relief.

Therefore, in the world of Warhammer 40K, the highest honor for a person after death is to return to the Golden Throne, because only in this way can the soul be protected by the Emperor and gain true peace, rather than enduring unimaginable pain after death.

Of course, this is the basic setting of Warhammer 40K, a COOOOOOOL design created by a certain British company in order to sell related things. The overly grand setting also makes it difficult to fully reproduce it in the game.

For example, the Warhammer 40K created by Uchiha Kei cannot reproduce the subspace, and Kakashi, as a player, whose soul enters the subspace after his death, is just a plot twist.

What Kakashi experienced was that he felt his will lose the constraints of his body, becoming illusory and unable to fix a fixed form, and he could no longer control himself.

The feeling of complete powerlessness overwhelmed Kakashi’s will, terrifying him and making him realize that he was already dead and in the afterlife.

But it is obvious that the world after death is not good. He can “see” the surrounding scenery. It is a dazzling, indescribable gorgeous space. In this space, malicious visions are projected over, including everything about Kakashi, as if they want to eat Kakashi alive and make him never reincarnate.

This frightened Kakashi greatly. He felt a chill that chilled him to the bone, and it also made him feel unprecedented despair.

This is a despair that cannot get any salvation, any help, any support, and is only left with endless despair. It is a great terror that comes from the depths of the soul.

“Is this the end? Will my soul be eaten and tortured by those monsters? Is this… my fate?”

“It really is… very suitable for a loser like me…”

Kakashi felt a little disappointed, but at the same time he calmed down, thinking that this result was suitable for a guy like him.

After all, his failure was complete. He lost his mother as an infant, his father as a child, his friends as a teenager and killed his partner with his own hands. Later, he lost his mentor and his wife, and later he couldn’t even keep his disciples.

Everything proved his failure, proved that he was a complete loser and a hopeless bastard. Perhaps he deserved this fate…

This is Kakashi’s true thought at this moment, and it is also an extremely negative thought.

Then, in this situation, a miracle happened at this moment.

In the subspace, a cold golden sun suddenly appeared, illuminating the subspace area where Kakashi was with incomparable golden brilliance.

The monsters lurking in the subspace, full of hunger and greed for Kakashi’s soul, screamed in fear, and then either turned into ashes under the shining of the cold sun, or fled far away, not daring to approach this area.

Kakashi stared at the cold sun and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time, because he seemed to see many things in that cold sun.

Old people? Children? Men? Women? Brave people? Cowardly people? Suffering people? Happy people? Crazy people? Wise people?
Everything, as if countless people of all kinds appeared in front of Kakashi and in his mind at this moment, making his consciousness seem to be stagnant at this moment.

Then, a series of complex and incomprehensible voices, seemingly calm yet crazy, rang directly in his mind as if to instill endless information into his brain.

Liar/madman/loser/redeemer/savior/fallen/outsider/blasphemer/man of hope/man of despair/self-absorbed person/confused person…

Too many things appeared at this moment, as if to burst Kakashi’s brain, making him completely enter an incomprehensible trance.

Finally, the golden light bathed Kakashi, causing him to feel an unprecedentedly powerful force cleansing his soul and transforming his being.

And it was at this moment that Kakashi finally heard the complete conversation.

“Go and fight, child from another world, with the power I have given you, bring a tiny bit of hope to this desperate and crazy universe…”

This voice was full of fatigue and pain, as if the owner of the voice was enduring incomparable torture and used up all his strength to explain these words clearly to Kakashi.

It was also at this moment that Kakashi suddenly seemed to understand who the owner of this voice was, and he couldn’t help but shout out: “You are… the Emperor!”

Then, the world spun around, as if traveling through time, Kakashi suddenly opened his eyes and woke up ‘again’.

Next, what Kakashi saw was the trench where he had died just now, but now there were only the bodies of his comrades in the trench, and each of them had blood gushing out of all seven orifices, their heads exploded, and they died in an extremely miserable way, which was also quite horrifying.

Even Kakashi, who had experienced many wars, couldn’t bear to see such a death.
Then, Kakashi heard an unpleasant noise coming from the air. It was the noise that killed him and sent his soul into the subspace.

However, the noise that had previously killed Kakashi without any resistance only made Kakashi feel very unpleasant this time, and a nameless rage surged out of him, making him want to beat up the guy who made the noise.

Kakashi then looked in the direction of the noise and saw the same group of noise warriors that had killed him earlier slaughtering the Imperial soldiers over two hundred meters away.

Moreover, the information belonging to these Chaos Astartes also directly flowed into Kakashi’s mind, as if he knew this information naturally.

The Four Chaos Gods, the Chaos Astartes under Slaanesh – the Noise Warriors, are fallen ones who bring endless torture and painful death to the world with their manic and crazy voices. They are addicted to their own world of joy, thinking that they are staging a never-ending concert, bringing the joy of singing to the world, but in fact they are only bringing endless pain, torture and death to all living beings.

The above is the information that emerged in Kakashi’s mind. This made Kakashi stunned, because he should not know these things, but now he knows them clearly.

Then, Kakashi realized.

“This must be the Emperor’s mighty power!”

Everything became clear to Kakashi. He understood that after his death, his soul entered the subspace and should have been devoured and tortured by those monsters, but the Emperor appeared at this critical moment, saved his soul, and knew that he was an outsider from another world and did not belong to this crazy universe.

However, the human emperor recognized him and believed that he was a tiny ray of hope for this world. He bestowed him with the power of the God-Emperor, allowing him to return to the human world, and possess power he had never had before, and also obtained relevant knowledge belonging to the Chaos side.

Kakashi lowered his head and looked at his right hand, where golden energy was flowing and boiling. He could feel that he had acquired a new ‘throwing watt’, which combined with his original chakra energy allowed him to truly display ninjutsu to the fullest in this world.

Although such power may seem insignificant on an interstellar battlefield, it is sufficient in local areas, such as on the battlefield against noise warriors!

The next moment, Kakashi followed his own understanding and perception, and unleashed the power bestowed upon him by the Emperor. His golden wings spread out behind him, accompanied by the sacred golden light representing the Emperor. He soared into the sky with the flapping of his wings, and turned into a golden stream of light, like a cannonball, smashing towards the Noise Warriors who were laughing wildly and slaughtering the Imperial soldiers.

The Noise Warriors noticed Kakashi and turned to look over in confusion, but the golden light had already fallen, and with a bang, it smashed into the middle of the Noise Warriors.

At this moment, it was as if the classic BGM of “Thor 3” sounded, and Kakashi’s show-off moment appeared at this moment. Accompanied by the blooming of golden light and the rumbling of dust, a noise warrior was directly stepped on by Kakashi.

The more than two-meter-five-foot-tall man and the blasphemous power armor on his body were directly crushed by him, and the golden emperor’s power turned into golden flames, burning the noise warrior’s body, making him scream in fear, despair and pain at this moment, and finally turned into ashes under the golden flames.

This scene made the battlefield suddenly quiet. The Noise Warriors and the remaining Imperial soldiers looked at Kakashi in amazement, like a god descending from heaven. Without Kakashi realizing it, his body had grown to the same height as an Astartes, about two meters and four, under the power of the Emperor.

Don’t think that his height is not as good as the Noise Warriors. That’s because the Noise Warriors are still wearing power armor, which will increase their height by several dozen centimeters. In fact, if they take off the power armor, Kakashi’s height is not lower than theirs, and he is even taller than many Astartes.

It was also at this moment that a samurai sword burning with golden flames appeared in Kakashi’s hand. This was a weapon condensed with the power of the emperor, and it was also the samurai sword he took out subconsciously.

Obviously, before coming to this world, Kakashi had already been deeply impressed by the iron-blooded education that Hatake Sakumo had given him. When he was asked to condense his weapon, he subconsciously thought of the samurai sword, and he was ready to use Hatake’s swordsmanship with it.

In this regard, Kakashi even couldn’t help but wonder whether he traveled to this horrible world because he made his old father too angry and accidentally killed him, causing his soul to complete the miraculous journey.

Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment, and then he put it aside because he was still on the battlefield.

The next moment, an unknown imperial soldier cried out in surprise, followed by fanatical shouts.

“He is the chosen one of the God Emperor! He is the living saint in the legend! The great God Emperor is watching us! He is watching over this battlefield! The God Emperor is protecting us!!!”

Then, it was the endless fanaticism of faith that ignited the morale. The morale, which was close to collapse due to the massacre by the noise warriors, received a 1000% boost at this moment. Everyone entered a state of fanaticism to the extreme, with endless fanaticism and even madness in their eyes.

All of this is because of Kakashi’s extremely sacred posture at this moment, that is, the posture of the Emperor’s Chosen One – a living saint.

The appearance of a living saint on a battlefield is an endless encouragement and inspiration to the Empire in the Warhammer 40K world, because it represents that the supreme Emperor is protecting the humans in this area.

In a world of religious fanaticism, this alone is enough to make countless people sacrifice their lives without regrets.

As a time traveler, Kakashi himself is completely unable to adapt to this fanatical religious atmosphere. Although he thinks that the emperor is great and is his savior, he is not a religious fanatic and cannot understand the thinking of fanatics. Therefore, when he sees the fanatical atmosphere now, he only has a feeling of “Are these people crazy?”

However, Kakashi did not have time to think about it, because the noise warriors who had come to their senses had already screamed with fear and anger and attacked Kakashi.

Faced with this situation, Kakashi did not hesitate to use his body, which had been strengthened by the Emperor’s might, to move at high speed. While dodging, he chopped off the head of the nearest Noise Warrior, letting its body burn to ashes under the Emperor’s golden flames.

Afterwards, he used the Earth Escape – Heart Beheading Technique without hesitation, pulling the other Noise Warrior directly into the ground, and then, while the other warrior was under control, he pierced his head with a knife.

Next, he used the substitution technique to withstand an attack from the Noise Warrior. When the Noise Warrior was shocked by his being turned into wood, he came behind him and killed him.

In a short period of time, including the one who was stepped on to death when he appeared earlier, all four Noise Warriors were killed. The whole process was easy and carefree, just like the Noise Warriors’ previous massacre of Imperial soldiers.

This crushing attitude further stimulated the imperial soldiers, and fanatical shouts rang out, forming a local carnival atmosphere on the battlefield.

Kakashi saw all of this, and although he felt that the fanaticism of these imperial soldiers was too much, he also had a feeling that ‘the power of Chaos is nothing special’. After all, it was really easy for him to slaughter the Chaos Astartes now.

Well, if Kakashi knew that he was actually in the game world and knew the common sense of the game world, he would definitely understand that he had just completed the novice tutorial and the real battle had just begun.

And if this game is still a soul-based game, Kakashi will be more aware that his journey of suffering has just begun.

Of course, Warhammer 40K cannot be a Souls-based game that allows ordinary soldiers to crush and massacre players. However, in this place full of monsters, anyone who dares to become arrogant will soon be slapped in the face by a tough guy falling from the sky.

Kakashi encountered the same situation next, because another group of Chaos Astartes suddenly arrived, this time there were more than twenty of them, and among them was a Hell Beast Mecha that was full of blasphemous runes and chaos marks. The so-called Hell Beast Mecha was an elite unit of the Chaos side, and it was an elite unit among the Chaos Astartes!

Soon, Kakashi felt the pain of being covered by terrifying firepower and besieged by a well-trained and well-coordinated Chaos Astartes, and was killed once again with great reluctance.
