"Huh, how strange, why do you have a face on the back of your head!"
Goku took off Quirrell's turban and saw Voldemort possessing Quirrell, a look of surprise on his face.
It was the first time he had seen someone with a face on the back of his head.
"Voldemort!"
Dumbledore finally understood why Quirrell always wore a turban and why there was always a strong smell of garlic.
Moreover, after the start of this school year, he had always kept his distance from him.
It turned out that this guy was not only a Death Eater, but he also allowed Voldemort's remnant soul to possess his body.
"What, Voldemort!"
Hearing Dumbledore's surprised voice, the faces of all the Professors present instantly changed.
Even they had a considerable fear of Voldemort.
As for the students below, they instantly screamed in terror.
One must know that even their parents dared not utter Voldemort's name, only referring to him as You-Know-Who.
One can imagine how terrifying Voldemort was to ordinary Wizards.
"Quick, use Fiendfyre!"
A sharp voice came from the twisted, terrifying face on the back of Professor Quirrell's head, making Quirrell, who had been stunned by the removal of his turban, react.
He hadn't expected to be exposed at this moment, to be exposed in front of Dumbledore and all the Hogwarts teachers.
The most troublesome thing was that this was inside the castle, and he couldn't use Apparition to escape at all.
Fortunately, upon hearing his Master Voldemort's command, he instinctively waved his wand and released the Fiendfyre Curse.
Blue flames transformed into various monstrous shapes, rushing in all directions, seemingly intent on burning everyone around to ashes.
"Super Shield Charm!"
Professor McGonagall and the others, seeing this, suppressed their fear of Voldemort, quickly pulled out their wands, and cast the Shield Charm to form a combined defense.
They protected all the wizards.
The Fiendfyre Curse is a very powerful Dark magic that can release destructive magic fire and cannot be extinguished by ordinary Water.
The more things it ignites, the greater its power.
Even killing the Wizard who cast Fiendfyre cannot stop the Fiendfyre from burning.
So, upon seeing Professor Quirrell release Fiendfyre, Professor McGonagall and the others did not attack Quirrell immediately, but first united to protect the wizards.
"Finite Incantatem!"
Dumbledore waved his wand and cast the most powerful counter-curse.
Except for some special spells, this counter-curse can break the effects of any magic, including the Fiendfyre Curse.
Under the effect of Dumbledore's counter-curse, the blue Fiendfyre began to gradually contract, and it would completely disappear before long.
While Dumbledore and the Professors were protecting the wizards and dealing with the Fiendfyre, Professor Quirrell ran out of the Great Hall.
Voldemort's purpose in having him release Fiendfyre was to use the safety of the wizards to delay Dumbledore and the Professors.
Otherwise, in an exposed situation, they couldn't possibly be a match for Dumbledore and the Professors.
As long as he ran out of the castle grounds, he could use Apparition to escape.
As for the philosopher's stone, he would just have to think of other methods later.
Unfortunately, as soon as he took a step, he felt a huge crisis about to descend on the back of his head.
"Avada... Bang!"
He wanted to cast the Curse of Slaying to force back the attack from behind, but the curse was only halfway uttered when he was already smashed to the ground like a cannonball.
That's right, it was Goku who kicked him.
Seeing Quirrell release Fiendfyre, how could he not know that Quirrell was an enemy? He jumped up and kicked Quirrell in the back of the head.
To be a Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, Quirrell's strength might not surpass Snape and McGonagall, but it was definitely first-rate.
Especially with Voldemort possessing him, he could completely detect Goku's attack mentally.
But what was the use of being able to detect it mentally?
Being able to detect it mentally didn't mean his physical body could react.
If it were two months ago, there might still have been a glimmer of possibility.
But in these two months, with the help of Dumbledore's magic, and the potions brewed by Snape that could increase stamina and aid physical training,
Goku's strength had made great progress again.
His speed was not just a little bit faster than before; even Dumbledore now felt that he might not be able to cast magic before Goku's attack arrived.
Let alone Quirrell.
Coupled with such a short distance, it was even more impossible for Quirrell to react.
"Oh, my face, you damn fellow, I'll remember you!"
Voldemort was kicked in the face by Goku, letting out a shrill scream of pain, and then flew out of Professor Quirrell's already exploded head.
However, he did not counterattack, but flew rapidly out of the Great Hall.
Not to mention his own terrible condition, only recovering some vitality by parasitizing Quirrell.
Even at his peak, he alone could not defeat Dumbledore and the Professors combined, plus there was Professor Son, whose strength was also terrifying.
So, escaping was the most important thing now.
"Can't hit him?"
Goku saw Voldemort escaping, flashed forward, and threw a punch, but it passed right through Voldemort's body.
"I will be back, and then all of you shall die!"
Voldemort's sinister voice echoed in the hall, making all the wizards shiver.
He was currently in a remnant soul state; he hadn't died due to the Horcruxes.
Therefore, physical attacks could not cause him any harm.
Even magic, more than ninety percent of magic, could not harm him.
"Goku, use Kamehameha, full power!"
Dumbledore shouted at Goku.
After Goku landed, his figure flashed, and he appeared beneath Voldemort's remnant soul, striking the Kamehameha starting pose.
Voldemort flew fast, but Goku's movement speed was even faster.
"Kamehameha!!!"
Concentrating most of his Kikoho within his hands, Goku unleashed his strongest Kamehameha to date.
The powerful Kikoho hit Voldemort's remnant soul directly.
"No!!!
This is impossible!"
Under the impact of the terrifying Kikoho, Voldemort's remnant soul gradually dissipated into the air of the Great Hall.
Along with it, the roof of the Great Hall also dissipated.
"It works, as expected."
Dumbledore completely dispelled the Fiendfyre Curse, looking at Voldemort's remnant soul turning to ash, a slight smile appeared on his face.
Voldemort's remnant soul, although very weak, was extremely difficult to kill.
Because almost all magic could not cause fatal damage to a soul.
This was why he knew Voldemort's remnant soul was hiding in the Albanian forest but had never gone to find him.
Plus, he knew that even if he found and killed Voldemort's remnant soul, he couldn't completely eliminate Voldemort.
However, Goku's Kikoho was different; as a pure energy attack, its destructive power was extremely terrifying.
Even a soul body, when facing a sufficiently high-intensity energy impact, had a high chance of being violently destroyed.
Moreover, Voldemort's soul was not like a normal person's soul after death; due to some Dark magic, he had not completely died, existing between life and death.
Of course, he knew that even if Voldemort's remnant soul was destroyed, he hadn't completely died and still had the possibility of resurrection.
But at least for a while, he wouldn't have to worry about Voldemort causing trouble again.
"You-Know-Who was killed by Professor Son?"
"How come I feel like You-Know-Who isn't that powerful!"
"Yeah, maybe Professor Son is just too powerful. Look at his ki magic, how terrifying its power is."
"I've decided, I'm going to get up at six tomorrow and train with Professor Son!"
"I'm going too!"
"I'm going too!"
Seeing Voldemort vanish into thin air under wizard's Kikoho, the wizards, who had just been screaming in fear, were instantly stunned.
Then they began to discuss excitedly.
Indeed, they had originally thought Voldemort was such a terrifying Black Wizard, with incredibly frightening power.
Yet, first he was kicked by Professor Son, screaming repeatedly, and then, while fleeing, he was instantly annihilated by a Kikoho.
This sudden discrepancy immediately disenchanted the wizards with Voldemort.
The most terrifying, most frightening Black Wizard whose name couldn't even be spoken was nothing more than this.
"This is exactly the spirit we need."
Dumbledore heard the wizards' discussions and nodded secretly.
He didn't explain that Voldemort was in a soul fragment state, nor did he explain that Voldemort might still revive.
He simply repaired the Great Hall's ceiling, had Snape take Quirrell's body away, and continued the Halloween feast.
Only when the wizards no longer feared Voldemort could they unleash their full power when facing Voldemort in the future.
Moreover, it could further motivate the wizards to learn ki magic.
"Is this Voldemort? He doesn't seem very powerful. He's far from Grandpa Dumbledore."
Sitting back down next to Dumbledore, wizard spoke frankly.
Having been at Hogwarts for two months, he had naturally heard some things about Voldemort and knew that Harry's parents had died at Voldemort's hands.
He had originally thought he would get a good fight today.
He didn't expect it to end as soon as he started to exert himself; it wasn't satisfying at all.
"The real Voldemort is much more powerful than me. He possesses many terrifying dark magic. This is just a fragment of his soul."
Dumbledore whispered a lie to wizard.
"Voldemort used a very special dark magic. Even if we kill his soul fragment today, we cannot truly kill him.
He may still revive in the future.
Only by figuring out which dark magic he used and finding a way to break it can we truly kill him."
"He might still revive? Then I'll definitely have a good fight with him then!"
When wizard heard that Voldemort was even more powerful than Dumbledore, his eyes immediately lit up.
Dumbledore smiled at his reaction:
"Good. If I find out he has revived, I will notify you immediately."
Figuring out what Voldemort's immortal dark magic is and finding a way to dispel it is the optimal solution.
If that doesn't work, then Hagrid and the wizards who have practiced ki magic, including the Boy Who Lived, Harry, will be the second plan.
Finally, if the second plan fails, he has wizard as his trump card.
He knew that wizard couldn't stay in this world forever, and might even leave soon.
Because, currently, besides learning magic, there were no opponents in this world to challenge wizard.
This clearly did not align with wizard's training philosophy.
He also didn't want to keep wizard here, affecting his progress in improving his strength.
So, he only needed wizard to remember that there was a Voldemort in this world worth fighting, and if wizard had time, he would definitely come back to check.
If Voldemort ever revived and the second plan also failed, he believed that even if he wasn't around, wizard would be very happy to know Voldemort had revived and would go kill him.
Over these two months, he had completely understood wizard's personality.
In fact, even without using wizard's love for fighting strong opponents, if he simply told wizard to come back often and help deal with Voldemort,
He knew wizard would definitely agree.
But he feared that as wizard cultivated in various worlds in the future, he might gradually forget this place.
After all, wizard's nerves were sometimes very thick, and it wasn't intentional.
Only by letting wizard know that there was a powerful opponent in this world would he occasionally think of this world.
His approach had a hint of using wizard, but there was no other way.
For the safety of the entire Wizarding World and the muggle world, sometimes he couldn't stick to the old ways and needed some flexibility.
However, these changes could not cross the bottom line.
"By the way, wizard, I see that the Black Dragons on the Hebridean Islands are no longer as effective for your training.
Next, I will take you to various countries to fight some well-known Black Wizards..."
"Black Wizards! That's great! I promised to help Nymphadora catch Black Wizards."
"Perfect then. When you catch the Black Wizards, give them to her. I think she'll be very happy."
The Halloween feast ended, but the events that occurred during it gave the wizards many more topics to discuss.
And the next day, the number of wizards signing up for ki magic classes greatly increased.
Time flew by, and soon it was Christmas.
Many wizards chose to go home for the holidays, and many also stayed at the school.
wizard continued to lead the wizards in their daily practice, learning magic principles and various spells every day.
He was now close to finishing all the fifth-year spells.
"Today, the spell I will teach you is Apparition..."
On Christmas Day, Dumbledore finally began to instruct wizard in the spell he most wanted to learn: Apparition.
Apparition, a high-level magic, involves space and carries great danger when learning.
One wrong move could result in splinching.
Therefore, only those with a relatively good foundation in magic and a certain level of psychological resilience could learn it.
The enrollment requirement for Apparition lessons at Hogwarts was to be in sixth year and at least seventeen years old.
wizard had now almost completed all the fifth-year magic theory and spells, giving him the foundation to learn Apparition.
And as for psychological resilience, he wasn't worried.
"The most important thing about Apparition is to remember the three Ds: Destination, Determination, and Deliberation.
First step: Focus your attention on your destination, that is, to..."
Dumbledore began to explain the key points of Apparition, and wizard listened very carefully.
He continued explaining until evening before he began to prepare wizard for his initial attempt:
"This magic is not easy to learn. Many sixth-year students study it for a semester and can't learn it, eventually giving up in frustration.
So, we're not in a hurry. Take your time, and always remember those three key points..."
"Apparition!"
wizard chanted the spell and instantly vanished from the Headmaster's office.
Dumbledore was stunned on the spot:
"No, I meant I'd take you outside the castle to try first..."
He hadn't expected wizard to be so eager, nor had he expected wizard to successfully cast Apparition inside the castle.
If it had been outside the castle, and wizard had successfully cast Apparition on his first try, he would have been surprised, but not this surprised.
There were geniuses who succeeded in Apparition on their first attempt; he was one of them.
But inside Hogwarts Castle, no matter how much of a genius you were, you couldn't use Apparition. Even he needed the power of a phoenix to do so.
Unless you were a house-elf, but was wizard a house-elf?
Clearly not.
Then why could he use Apparition inside the castle? Was it because he used ki instead of magic to cast the spell?
He thought that might be part of the reason, but not entirely.
"How did you just perform Apparition?"
Once Goku instantly teleported back to the Headmaster's office, Dumbledore inquired in detail.
Goku thought for a moment:
"I just did as you said, imagined the location of Hagrid's cabin, and then chanted the spell."
"But I felt an invisible force blocking me from breaking through space to Hagrid's cabin."
"That's normal."
Dumbledore nodded.
Hogwarts Castle has an Anti-Apparition charm cast jointly by the four founders, so no wizard can use Apparition within the castle.
He was able to do it by borrowing the power of the phoenix, and the house-elves' instant teleportation is not strictly Apparition; they use elf magic.
"However, at that time, I happened to sense Hagrid's ki, and by using Hagrid's ki, I further pinpointed the location, and with a burst of effort, I broke through the obstruction."
"Then I appeared at the entrance of Hagrid's cabin."
"I was also able to successfully perform Apparition to return by sensing the ki within you."
Goku recounted the entire process of his Apparition.
After listening to Goku's narration, Dumbledore pondered for a moment, and gradually, some understanding dawned on him.
Goku had said that every living being in the world has ki, even a blade of grass, a flower, or a small insect.
Ki is inherently more overbearing than magic, so using ki to perform Apparition can better break through Anti-Apparition charms.
Coupled with Goku's ability to pinpoint a target by locking onto its ki, it makes sense.
Therefore, being able to break through the Anti-Apparition charm laid by the four founders was understandable.
"It seems Goku's Apparition is much more powerful than normal Apparition!"
Having figured all this out, Dumbledore couldn't help but exclaim.
His exclamation was not just because Goku's Apparition could almost ignore any Anti-Apparition charm's obstruction.
It was also because normal Apparition involves thinking of a destination one has visited and then instantly teleporting there.
If one hasn't been to a place, one naturally cannot Apparate there.
But Goku's Apparition could not only instantly teleport him to places he had been, but also to places he hadn't.
As long as there was someone whose ki he could sense to act as a locator, he could Apparate there.
Goku's Apparition was not just a magic for travel, but also became a magic for tracking and finding people.
For example, if Goku remembered his ki, as long as he was within Goku's sensing range for ki, no matter how he hid, Goku could directly Apparate to his side.
"Let's test the range of your ki perception and the distance of your Apparition."
Having understood the principle of Goku's Apparition, he began to help Goku conduct more detailed magic tests.
The Apparition magic has a distance limit; the stronger the wizard, the farther the Apparition distance.
A normal adult wizard can at most Apparate within the confines of a city.
For greater distances, they would need to use Floo powder or Portkeys.
More powerful wizards, like McGonagall and Professor Snape, can Apparate across cities.
As for himself, he could Apparate across countries.
After a series of tests, the detailed data for Goku's Apparition was revealed.
If he simply used Apparition in the normal way, Goku could Apparate even farther than him.
This did not surprise him, as the ki within Goku was no less than his magic, perhaps even more.
However, if he used the method of locking onto ki, the distance was greatly reduced.
Because when Goku calmed down, his perception range for ki was only about fifteen kilometers; beyond that, he couldn't sense it.
So if he left Goku by more than fifteen kilometers, Goku wouldn't be able to instantly teleport to his side.
But even so, it was already very impressive.
In the future, when Goku fights enemies, as long as the enemy doesn't instantly escape fifteen kilometers, they won't be able to shake off Goku's pursuit.
Moreover, according to Goku, the range of ki perception increases with his strength.
The stronger he becomes, the farther the distance he can perceive ki.
If Goku becomes powerful enough in the future, his perception range might even cover the entire Earth.
Then, as long as Goku wishes, no one would be able to escape his tracking.
After the Christmas dinner, a full Goku waved goodbye to Dumbledore and Apparated, disappearing within Hogwarts Castle.
After Halloween, his evening combat training targets changed from magical creatures to Black Wizards.
Before, because he couldn't Apparate, Dumbledore always took him to various countries to find Black Wizards; now he could do it himself.
On Magic Street in New York, U.S., Goku, wearing a wizard's robe, appeared with a series of crackling sounds.
He had been to New York Magic Street once before, but it wasn't for capturing Black Wizards.
Previously, he primarily captured Black Wizards on the wanted list in countries closer to Hogwarts, such as France, Germany, and Spain.
However, every time Dumbledore took him out, it wasn't just to capture Black Wizards; he would also take him to explore various countries and familiarize himself with their Magic Streets.
According to Dumbledore, the different worlds he traveled to might have cities similar to those in this world.
Learning about them in advance would help him in his future adventures.
Just like the city of New York now, he had never heard of it in his own world, but it appeared in the previous Marvel Universe.
He had heard Uncle Logan say that the former mutant school was located in New York.
"U.S. Magical Congress, Black Wizard Most Wanted List, Number One, Nigel Hunigo."
"Massacred one hundred twenty-three Muggles, four Aurors, smuggled countless dark magic items."
"Once followed Gellert Grindelwald, a staunch wizard supremacist, powerful and extremely dangerous."
"If found, please report to the Congress promptly, reward five thousand Galleons…"
Goku pulled out a magical wanted poster, which contained information about Nigel Hunigo and a moving picture.
This was his target for the evening.
"First, I'll go to the black market to inquire about clues for this person."
Having prior experience capturing Black Wizards with Dumbledore, Goku was not unfamiliar with the process of capturing Black Wizards.
According to Dumbledore, every city's Magic Street would inevitably have a place similar to Knockturn Alley.
As long as such a place was found, it would be easy to gather information about the target Black Wizard from Black Wizard in the black market.
If he really couldn't find one, it didn't matter; he would just move on to the next wanted criminal, as capturing anyone was still capturing.
In his pocket, he still had nine other Black Wizard wanted posters given to him by Dumbledore.
If he couldn't find the first, he would look for the second, and so on; he was bound to find one eventually.
