Becoming the Supreme Will starting from Hunter x Hunter

At that moment, the sound of bones cracking rang out.

Yu Si was immediately disfigured, blood gushing from his mouth, mixed with several broken teeth...

The person tumbled several times in mid-air before crashing off the stage, limbs limp, life hanging in the balance.

"Tsk...can't you be a little quieter..."

Long indifferently shook his hand, muttered a complaint, put his hands back in his pockets, and strolled off the stage.

boom!

Then, the venue erupted in cheers.

"Oooo!!"

The host let out a long whistle, "Same familiar scene, same familiar feeling... The winner is still Oboro! He continues his legend... Who can stop this formidable newcomer's advance...?"

"knight!"

"knight!"

A unified shout also came from the audience.

It's Oboro's fan club, a group of single office workers.

"No... this title... needs to be changed."

Before returning to the lounge from the passage, Oboro frowned as he heard the shouts that seemed to shake the dome.

……

"Let's welcome the 'Suit-Wearing Thug'... Oboro!!"

The next day, after he applied to his department head, the host changed his wording when introducing him.

In this match, he was still just 'slacking off'.

The lower-floor arena didn't interest him.

In terms of sheer physical strength and attributes, there are very few things that would impress him.

With such low physical strength, it's even less likely that he could use any combat techniques or martial arts that he cared about...

And so, Oboro fought his way through the challenges, achieving a crazy winning streak.

In order to attract users, the official Sky Arena team has also cultivated him into a near-legendary figure, sparing no effort in promoting him.

They promoted it... As for the competition rules, they also made special arrangements, allowing Oboro to challenge higher floors.

The gradual promotions are neither exciting nor suspenseful for the audience.

For example, if someone jumps from the 70th floor to the 100th floor, their skill level will undoubtedly be on a completely different level. Whether Oboro can continue his winning streak is also a question mark.

Sky Arena precisely captured the psychological needs of its audience…

In just half a month, Long rose to the 150th floor like a rocket, an unprecedented feat.

His schedule is packed every day, and his matches are almost always sold out.

The reputation of the "suit-wearing thugs" was firmly established.

That solved a major worry for Oboro... at least he's no longer called a part-time knight.

Once he reached the 150th floor and above, the Sky Arena changed its strategy to target him... They arranged for him to face the strongest opponents on each floor, and they hyped it up beforehand, not only increasing ticket prices several times over, but also scheduling the matches in prime time, with only one match per day and no more.

The following day, in the luxurious suite where Oboro lived alone.

The arena staff brought him information about his next opponent.

Oboro is now a big star at the Sky Arena... even the posters in the lobby and the TV screens playing feature him.

"Thank you."

Long took the file.

The staff member nodded and turned to leave.

After everyone left, Oboro casually tossed the documents onto the table, showing no interest.

It's worth noting that in the original story, Killua and Gon defeated their opponents below the 180th floor with a chop and a palm strike respectively, causing a sensation no less than what they have now.

Of course, this doesn't mean the fighters in the Heaven's Arena were weak; it just means that the two main characters were already quite strong at that time.

What's even more terrifying... is the talent and aura of the two little ones.

Long stretched and prepared to pick up his clothes and go out for a walk... During this time, besides the competition, he also inquired about some well-known local casinos and information about his betting pool.

Because of his winning streak, his odds were frighteningly low, making it almost impossible to profit.

Long doesn't plan to start acting as the dealer right now.

"Ok?"

Just as he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of a document sheet lying on the floor of the table.

A photo and a name were pasted on a piece of white paper.

Yun Gu!

Long's expression changed slightly. He picked up the paper and examined it carefully.

The young man in the photo is wearing glasses and a loose-fitting shirt, and he has a warm smile on his face.

The information states that this person climbed up the ranks floor by floor, taking more than three months in total. Before the 100th floor, the competition ended quickly. After the 100th floor, it seemed to become a bit difficult, and he suffered a defeat on the 149th floor. After reaching the 150th floor, he stopped... and faced the challenger as the reigning champion.

Clearly, he was also a dark horse, but he wasn't as violent as Oboro, constantly defeating his opponents in seconds... He didn't have much of a gimmick, so... he wasn't made famous by the Heaven's Arena.

Countless fighters flock to the Sky Arena every day... and many maintain winning streaks. Unless you can be like Oboro, dominating every match... it's really too difficult to stand out from the crowd.

Also, don't look

Oboro is famous now, but the Sky Arena is the cradle of martial artists. The real stars are the top-tier experts... those above the 200th floor.

Long can only be considered a phenomenal newcomer.

"It sure is him!"

A moment later, Long put down the paper, her eyes lit up, and she threw away the clothes she was already holding.

I'm not planning to go out.

Yun Gu... Bisky's apprentice, the guy who taught Gon and Killua.

He is also a disciple of the Mind Power School, specifically the Shingen-ryu School.

"After reaching the 100th floor, the pace of the competition slowed down significantly... It was just to avoid elimination and participate in the officially arranged matches within the time limit. No wonder we haven't heard of him... It's not much different from the entertainment industry; new talents constantly replace the old. If you don't show up for a few days, you're easily forgotten... Let alone someone like him..."

Lonely murmured.

Then he walked to the side, turned on the landline, and dialed a number. "Hello, I need video recordings of Yun Gu's past matches."

A short while later, someone knocked on the door and brought over what Long needed.

They are very efficient.

Oboro began playing videotapes one by one to observe.

By evening, he had finished reading it all.

“Yun Gu… his style belongs to the traditional martial arts school, which is methodical and rigid. His moves are somewhat clumsy and his timing is not very mature. Obviously, he has already undergone some training before coming to the Sky Arena… but… it is still far from enough.”

"After the hundredth floor... it's clear that he's also learning from the strengths of various martial arts styles and absorbing experience... The pace slowed down later on, and he reappeared every now and then, showing obvious improvement... The reason he slowed down was to integrate and enrich himself; he must be undergoing some kind of training within limited intervals..."

"So... Bisky must be here!"

"He's definitely a Nen user, but he's not using Nen... He's probably thinking the same thing as me, relying solely on his physical strength and martial arts skills to fight. That's probably what Bisky asked him to do!"

"You've only learned how to use Nen... but you don't have any combat experience?... "

Long turned off the TV, held the remote control in his hand, and squinted.

What a coincidence!

"Hehe... I hope you can bring me some fun."

Long wiggled his fingers. Since they had run into each other, it wouldn't be right not to have some fun.

A slight smile curved his lips.

17. Do you like acting? (Please read on)

Meanwhile, in another room.

Two people also watched all of Oboro's match recordings.

A blonde girl in a puffy dress sat on the edge of the bed, swinging her legs... looking somewhat unsatisfied.

Bisky cupped her cheeks in her hands, like a young girl immersed in love, and said, "Wow! I never expected to see such a promising talent in the Sky Arena... This valuable raw gem, if properly crafted, might become an incredibly dazzling gem."

After expressing her feelings, she looked at her apprentice Yun Gu standing to the side and asked with a smile, "What did you see?"

Yun Gu pushed up his glasses with his fingers and shook his head. "He finished the matches too quickly, always defeating his opponents right after the referee blew the whistle... that explosive speed and power... it's terrifying. The rest..."

“Hmm…you’re right. His matches are purely about using sheer physical strength to attack…there’s absolutely no technique involved.” Bisky nodded, reversing the TV screen with the remote and pressing the pause button. “Look here, his attacks utilize the explosive power of his lower limbs to accelerate and instantly close the distance to his opponent…and look here, notice his hands…do you see anything wrong?”

"It seems... the skin on your palms is a little rough? A little bigger?" Yun Gu observed for a moment and said tentatively.

"Simply put, this person's body is on a completely different level from other fighters; they're two different species... Moreover, he must have cultivated some kind of martial art that utilizes his hands. Although he's wearing clothes, judging from his swaying physique, his flesh and blood are much more solid and powerful... He should also possess a defensive martial art similar to the Body Tempering lineage. It's just a pity that since his appearance, no one has been able to force him to use his true abilities." When it comes to physical prowess, Bisky is an expert.

The problem is obvious at a glance.

"And... he's fought so many matches, and the way he ends them is exactly the same... once or twice is one thing, but after so many times, it still works... were the other fighters not on guard against him? No... nobody wants to lose, and nobody's stupid. In the matches after the hundredth floor, you can see that his opponents were already on guard... but they still fell for it. Why?"

Bisky looked at her apprentice.

"The difference in physical condition... is the same as an ordinary person facing a bullet. Even if you see it, you can't avoid it because of your own physical limitations."

Yun Gu thought for a moment and then gave an answer.

But Bisky shook her finger. "That's only one of the reasons...you haven't grasped the crux of the problem."

"The essential?"

Yun Gu was taken aback.

Bisky adjusted the playback screen again.
