Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 203 Improvisation
After establishing a partnership with Hisoka, the first thing Moro did was inquire about the condition of the cemetery.

When confronted with Moro's questions, Hisoka truthfully recounted his encounter with Shalnark in the cemetery, including the conversation between Shalnark and Phinks.

This was undoubtedly bad news for Moro.

In fact, before taking action against Feitan, Moro had already anticipated the possibility that Feitan and Phinks might act together.

After all, these two are always inseparable.

So when Morrow found Feitan alone in the cemetery, he thought he was lucky.

Even so, Morrow knew very well that once Phinks lost contact with Feitan, he would soon discover Feitan's death.

But what Moro didn't expect was that after Feitan's death, Shalnark would intervene so quickly.

This means that the Phantom Troupe will soon learn of Feitan's death and may immediately launch an investigation.

Moro was unsure whether the Phantom Troupe could trace him back to him.

Anyway, now that Hisoka is an inside man, he can be notified immediately if the Phantom Troupe makes any moves.

This is one of the benefits of establishing a cooperative relationship with Hisoka; at least you can keep track of the Phantom Troupe's movements at any time.

of course.

The possibility that Finks and others acted without authorization cannot be ruled out.

If that's the case, it's not necessarily a bad thing for Moro.

In short, if we assume the worst and that the Phantom Troupe will eventually find him, then...

Moro felt it necessary to strike first and kill as many lone spiders as possible before the Phantom Troupe could react.

On the hospital bed.

Hisoka stared intently at Moro, who was deep in thought.

Without needing any evidence, he vaguely sensed some of Moro's thoughts.

Moro glanced at Hisoka, who seemed to be suppressing some kind of emotion, and then looked at Kalto, who was sitting upright in a chair not far away.

"Kurt, is there any medicine left?"

"There's some left."

Upon hearing this, Kurt subconsciously glanced at the perverted man on the hospital bed, a man he found extremely repulsive.

He knew that Moro's sudden question was probably because he wanted to give that perverted guy some medicine.

"give it to me."

"Moro said."

Kurt hesitated for a moment, then took out the remaining medicine.

Moro took the medicine and turned to look at Hisoka.

Now that the swordsman has seen the state of the cemetery, the Phantom Troupe may reunite soon because of this.

Before that, Moro thought Hisoka should focus on recovering from his injury.

It's a pity Kurapika hasn't developed the Healing Chain ability yet, otherwise it would be much simpler...

However, with the Zoldyck family's special medicine, they could barely manage.

Hisoka glanced at the medicine jar in Moro's hand, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said with a hint of amusement, "I... can't move."

"..."

Moro, with his eyelids drooping, understood Hisoka's unspoken meaning: he probably wanted Moro to help him apply the medicine.

Sometimes, he felt that having too strong a comprehension ability was also a bad thing.

Especially in front of Hisoka.

“I suddenly felt that it would be a waste to give you this medicine, so I changed my mind.”

Meeting Hisoka's expectant gaze, Moro shook his head slightly and stuffed the medicine back into Kurt's hand.

Hisoka, seeing this, didn't take it to heart, but a look of regret appeared on his face.

It's unclear whether he was regretting not being able to use the special medicine, or regretting not being able to get Moro to apply the medicine for him.

Seeing Hisoka's reaction, Moro was somewhat unable to stand this freak.

However, what he just said was a lie.

The remaining Zoldyck family special medicines still need to be given to Hisoka.

Moro ignored Hisoka and prepared to go downstairs to ask the nurses at the clinic to help Hisoka apply the medicine.

He had just walked towards the door.

Suddenly, a burst of intense gunfire rang out from downstairs, followed by terrified screams.

Hearing the noise downstairs, Moro frowned, immediately thinking of what had happened at the clinic yesterday.

"Kakin's gang..."

Hearing the intense gunfire, Moro could guess what was going on without even thinking.

The Ten Elders' gang influence spans ten regions across six continents, including the region where the Kingdom of Kakin is located.

However, compared to other regions, the Ten Elders' influence here is much weaker.

This is because there are local gangs in the Kingdom of Kakin, and these gangs are all backed by the prince of Kakin.

Due to the presence of these local gangs, the Ten Elders naturally couldn't extend their reach too far.

The two corpses that Moro saw yesterday were clearly members of one of the gangs in Kakin, and for some reason they had a conflict with Morina.

most--

It was Melina who started it, wasn't it?

After all, the other two gangs in Kakin Kingdom are more focused on maintaining a balance, while only Morina has always been unrestrained.

In any case, Moro had no interest in the dispute and showed no intention of contacting Melina.

He turned to look at Kurt, gesturing for him to stay in the ward.

Then, Moro pushed open the door and walked towards the stairwell.

In just over ten seconds, the gunfire downstairs suddenly stopped.

Moro reached the top of the stairs and looked down, bumping into two men carrying light submachine guns who were about to come up the stairs.

The two men looked up and saw Morrow. Without saying a word, they pointed their guns at Morrow and pulled the triggers.

Da da da--

Gunfire erupted, and in an instant, a hail of bullets enveloped Moro.

Moro did not dodge, using his Nen to withstand the barrage of bullets, while simultaneously flicking away two small flying stars with his finger.

Pfft, pfft.

The flying star pierced the foreheads of the two men with pinpoint accuracy, and the gunshot abruptly stopped.

"Looks like we need to clear this place out..."

Moro walked down the stairs.

Judging from the way those two men raised their guns and fired, it was clear they intended to eliminate all the survivors inside the clinic.

This is typical of the ruthless style of gangsters.

Moro inevitably felt annoyed.

Stepping over the two corpses at the bottom of the stairs, Moro arrived on the first floor, where more than a dozen gang members armed with guns rushed over.

Seeing this, Moro did not hesitate to use his flying star to kill the gang members.

He didn't even care about the Ten Old Men, let alone the local gangs of Kakin.

As the gang members fell, the two men who came out of the examination room immediately looked at Moro, who was radiating solid Nen energy.

They were also Nen users, and their expressions changed slightly when they saw the aura emanating from Moro.

Very strong...

This was their first impression of Moro.

Moro also looked at them.

So weak.

With just one glance, Moro could tell that both men were around level 30.

Under the experience decay mechanism, it's estimated that he can no longer gain experience.

Nevertheless, Moro decided to kill the two men.

"Flying Star"

Sharp Nen energy surged from Moro's right palm.

Seeing the powerful Nen energy gathering in Moro's palm, one of the two men hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute, there might be some misunderstanding here, we are..."

However, before he could finish speaking, the fluorescent green shooting star was already heading straight for his face. A battle was about to break out, but it ended quickly as well.

One person was killed by Moro's flying star, while the other had his throat slit by Moro's red jade bird knife.

goooo...

The man who had just tried to explain was now clutching his bleeding throat, unable to utter a single word, only able to stare wide-eyed in terror.

Moro glanced at him expressionlessly, sheathed the Crimson Jade Bird Knife, and then walked into the consultation room.

What came into view were doctors and nurses lying in pools of blood, and even the patients treated at the clinic had not escaped.

Moro paused for two seconds, then silently turned and left, returning to his ward on the second floor.

"I can't stay here anymore."

Moro entered the ward and looked at Hisoka, who was the most seriously injured.

Compared to Kurapika, whose fever had subsided, Hisoka's situation was clearly more troublesome.

Moro tossed the remaining Zoldyck family special medicine to Hisoka, saying, "Find a way to apply the medicine yourself."

After saying that, he ignored Hisoka's reaction and went straight to Kurapika's bedside.

"Kurapika, how are you feeling?"

"I'm OK."

Kurapika got out of bed immediately.

Although he had many wounds, they did not affect his mobility.

Moro nodded to Kurapika, then turned to look at Hisoka.

Hisoka was quite sensible; after removing the bandages, he used his flexible Love to wrap the ointment and then slowly applied it to the most severely injured areas.

Then, using a thin, delicate fabric, the bandage is applied to the injured area.

His control over "mind" was incredibly precise; when he used his abilities, he was even more agile than his hands and feet.

Hisoka quickly finished applying the medicine.

"Walk."

Moro was the first to leave the ward.

Kalmod and Kurapika followed closely behind.

Hisoka is in a bit of trouble. Although the medicine has been applied, his severe injuries make it difficult for him to walk.

However, seeing that Moro had no intention of helping him at all, he could only force himself to get off the bed despite his serious injuries and slowly follow behind.

Outside the clinic, it was still pouring rain.

After leaving the clinic, the group got into the car in the rain.

After a while.

The car started and drove out of town.

at the same time.

In a house in town, Melina sat quietly in a chair by the window, her hands clasped together and gently placed on her lap.

She tilted her head slightly, looking at the window being constantly battered by the rain.

After a long time.

A subordinate came to report what had happened at the clinic.

The gang members who went to clear out the clinic were actually from the Xiu Wuwu family, one of the three major gangs in Kakin.

Just as Moro had guessed, the conflict involving the Aiyi family, to which Molena belonged, and the Xiuwu family was initiated by Molena herself.

Melina believed that only by creating chaos and disrupting the balance could she have a chance to seize the position of clan leader.

But this is just the beginning.

Melina did not initially intend to escalate the situation; this provocation was merely a probing action on her part.

But when she left the clinic yesterday, she suddenly felt two extremely powerful auras emanating from inside the clinic.

This gave her the idea that she could exploit it, which led to today's events.

Melina stared at the water droplets sliding down the window, the image of Morro flashing through her mind.

"Olympic champion in combat sports... well-deserved."

Amidst the pattering rain, there were soft whispers.

----------

The car sped along the road, braving the wind and rain.

"This direction..."

Kurt, sitting in the passenger seat, noticed that they were driving along the same route they had come from.

That is--

The road back to the cemetery.

"The swordsman is very likely still there, if he's alone..."

Moro gripped the steering wheel, staring straight ahead, and calmly said, "Then kill him."

After learning from Hisoka that Shalnark had also gone to the cemetery and about the phone call Shalnark made to Phinks, Morrow was already considering returning to the cemetery.

Based on the information provided by Hisoka, he could at least confirm that there was only one person there: Chrollo.

Therefore, after having the idea of ​​weakening the Phantom Troupe's power, his first thought was to kill the Swordsman.

This matter needs to be addressed as soon as possible.

Morrow had only instructed Kal't to prepare a Life Doll for Feitan, so in the rush, he couldn't use Kal't's ability to find people, and therefore couldn't determine whether Shalnark was still there.

If the swordsman were still alive...

If it drags on for a few days, the rest of the Phantom Troupe will likely arrive to join the Swordsman.

By then, there will be no more opportunities to make a move.

Moro originally intended for Hisoka, Kurapika, and Kalmod to stay at the clinic while he went to the cemetery.

Unexpectedly, they were drawn into the Kakin gang's conflict, so naturally they couldn't leave Kurt and the others at the clinic.

Upon hearing Morrow's words, Kurt suddenly understood.

While in the hospital room, I overheard Moro and Hisoka's conversation and learned that Moro wanted to take on the entire Phantom Troupe...

Now it seems that Moro's idea was indeed very strong.

Kurt always remembered Silva's warning not to provoke the Phantom Troupe.

However, when Moro decided to take on the entire Phantom Troupe, Kalluto silently made the same decision.

anyway--

Kurt only wanted to stay with Morrow forever.

In the back seat.

Hisoka was not surprised at all by Moro's decision.

During his conversation with Moro, he had sensed Moro's intention to harm the knight.

This approach of making timely and decisive decisions based on available information...

This allowed Hisoka to gain a deeper understanding of Moro.

When Kurapika heard Moro mention wanting to go back and kill Chrollo, he simply glanced down at the bandages on his body, then silently looked at Moro's profile.

Even now, he still doesn't know what grudge Moro has against the Phantom Troupe.

It has to go to this extent.

--------

Fengde Town is a typical town in the eastern region of the Kingdom of Kajin.

Its only claim to fame is its insistence on holding the ancient sacrificial ceremony of the Returning Soul Festival.

The cemetery where the "Returning Souls Ceremony" was held a couple of days ago is only two or three kilometers away from Fengde Town.

After bringing the charred corpse back to Fengde Town, in order to find out the identity of the corpse as soon as possible, he directly used the manipulation ability of "carrying the fate of others" to turn the mayor of Fengde Town into a puppet.

In this way, many problems are easily solved.

On the one hand, with the town mayor stepping in, there's no need to worry about the subsequent turmoil at the cemetery.

On the other hand, he could use his position as mayor to mobilize the local forensic identification agency to quickly identify the charred corpse.

Whether it's the test results or the Finks that's on their way here...

All a knight-errant can do is wait.
