Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Chapter 239 Setting a Trap × Defeating Leiza

The pitch-black sea was covered with billowing white fog that spread wildly like a torrent.

Diya rode on a cloud-like beast, flying swiftly through the white mist and over the sea.

'Hiding in the sea is definitely a good idea.'

Dia frowned, trying to discern Leza's true location from the dark surface of the sea.

But it's impossible; the sea is too vast.

The fog of the first celestial phenomenon could not extend into the sea, so Leiza cleverly concealed himself.

He was certain that there were Leiza's "circles" monitoring everything beneath the sea.

Should we wait?

Diya stopped her aimless flying and began to think of a way to break the deadlock.

Leiza is currently in the sea, but he is in the air. Logically speaking, as long as he keeps waiting, the other party will eventually be unable to hold back and surface.

However, as a Nen user with exceptional physical abilities, Dia had no way of knowing just how strong Leiza's lung capacity was.

What if the other person can hold their breath for half an hour?

Moreover, with the sea so vast, if Leiza couldn't hold his breath any longer and simply crawled out to catch his breath, Diya wouldn't be able to catch him.

In this situation where both sides lose sight of each other, the probability of the two people meeting is extremely low.

That being said, it would certainly be a victory for Dia if time dragged on, but you have to remember, he's in a hurry to get back!

He still couldn't accept wasting several hours in one go.

Although Dia could use the [Ripple Radar] to locate Leza's position, it was simple; he just needed to land close to the sea surface and slowly release ripples.

But does this make sense? Diya doesn't have the same powerful ability to unleash psychic bullets as Leiza.

As an [Emission Type], Dia's Nen bullets are quite powerful, but they are far less powerful than his punches.

This can't be blamed on him. Dia has always insisted on training in the [Emission] type of ability, but in the end, his Nen training time is still too short.

The cheat code he used only allowed him to far surpass ordinary people in terms of Nen power; the power of a Nen bullet is not solely determined by Nen power.

In this situation, trying to defeat a master like Leiza by using telekinesis across the thick sea is simply wishful thinking.

Beneath the surface, Leiza was also waiting quietly.

He knew that Dia was in a hurry, using delaying tactics, and that it was the other party, not him, who couldn't stand it.

'Since he focuses on developing Nen beasts, his skill in Nen projectiles must be lacking.'

As a Nen user of the same type, Leiza's judgment of Dia was very accurate.

A person's energy is limited. If a user with the [Emission] ability wants to maintain their combat power, they simply need to work on their Nen Beasts and Nen Bullets.

However, focusing on one thing inevitably leads to neglecting another; this is a basic principle of common sense.

Some might think this judgment is too arbitrary, but Leiza is more than 90% certain.

The reason is that just now on the shore, when he tested the other party with an explosive psychic bullet, Dia detonated the psychic bullet with a bullet!

This shows that Dia herself is definitely not the type who is accustomed to using telekinesis.

The battle of wits is nothing more than probing, judging, and then counterattacking!

Leiza waited patiently underwater, like an old hunter waiting for his prey.

The underwater world was pitch black, filled with oppression and silence.

Boom!

Thunder suddenly sounded from above and entered the water.

Leiza frowned. How could it suddenly rain at this moment?

But if it wasn't raining, where would the thunder come from?

Could it be...

A thought suddenly occurred to Leiza.

He carefully floated up and approached the surface of the water.

Boom! Boom! —

The continuous thunder transformed into a natural sonata, like a magnificent movement by the heavens.

What surprised Leiza even more was the shimmering, star-like green light on the water's surface!

It's thunder!

Splash splash splash splash...

The torrential rain fell, instantly washing away and dispersing the thick wall of fog.

[The Second Elephant]!

Dia once again summoned his heavy diving suit, and stood quietly on the water's surface, leaning against the ripples. Golden ripples spread out from his feet, lifting him up.

Behind him, countless bolts of lightning transformed into turquoise spears, violently crashing into the sea!

If the exact location cannot be found, then use a large-scale AOE attack!

Once inside the water, the turquoise ripples instantly transformed into countless tiny electric currents, moving through the seawater like countless deadly sea serpents, baring their fangs and hunting everywhere.

boom!

Just then, a psychic bullet radiating terrifying energy burst through the water and hurtled straight toward Dia!

It was Leiza's attack!

Seeing this, Dia was not flustered at all; instead, her eyes lit up and she blurted out:

"Good timing!"

Suddenly, the water surface rippled, and a huge repulsive force suddenly shoved Dia aside, allowing him to dodge the menacing psychic projectile.

The water surface is also one of the main battlegrounds of the [Ripple Messenger]!

The appearance of this telekinetic bullet made Dia realize that his tactics had worked.

The first celestial phenomenon was dispelled, and Leiza was successfully lured from the deep water to the shallow water near the surface.

Beneath the water's surface, Leiza's [Circle] firmly locked onto Diya, his hand continuously conjuring a psychic bullet.

The reason he didn't surface was simple: a large amount of bluish-green lightning was constantly bombarding the sea surface.

Although the effect is unknown, it is clear that it is not something that can be hit without any burden.

However, in order to ensure that the psychic bullets would not react too strongly in the water and be detected in advance, Leiza could only stay in the shallow water and keep attacking Diya with psychic bullets.

However, this seemingly flawless decision led them right into Dia's trap...

As time went on, Diya's movements in dodging Leiza's projectiles became increasingly effortless, rather than difficult.

It's not that his speed has increased, but rather that Leza's ball speed is decreasing!

'No, something's wrong!'

Just as Leiza threw out a Nen bullet, he suddenly realized something was wrong. For a brief moment, his muscles seemed to have been paralyzed, and he was in a state of numbness.

This is something that is absolutely impossible for Leiza, whose body has been tempered by countless trials!

'Poisoned? When?'

Realizing he had been tricked, Leiza immediately rolled over and prepared to sink into the deep water to avoid the limelight for the time being before trying to figure out when he had been caught.

However, it was all too late.

The cyan-green ripples of his consciousness had accumulated in his muscles like years of poison...

'It's stopped, let me see...'

On the water, when Diya saw that the telekinetic bullets suddenly stopped coming, she instantly realized that Leiza might have been hit.

So Dia decisively released her [Circle] and probed underwater towards where the last Nen bullet had been thrown.

The reason I didn't use the "circle" to locate Lei Zha earlier was because I was afraid of scaring him back into deeper waters. Now, of course, I have no such concerns.

Chapter 240 [Repatriation] Kakin x Reunion with Mumu Ze

"Pfft...cough..."

On the beach, Leiza, gradually recovering from the numbness, struggled to spit out the seawater he had swallowed and coughed a few times.

Leizha, having recovered, let out a long breath and said with a wry smile:

"What a crushing defeat. In the end, we had to rely on our opponents to save us."

"Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war; it's just a matter of luck."

Diya stood to the side and said a few words of modesty.

The victory just now was mostly due to tactical arrangements, rather than his actual strength being much stronger than Leiza's.

To put it bluntly, Dia is well aware of Leza's abilities, but Dia is completely unaware of Leza's. Given this disparity, it's not surprising that Leza can win.

Of course, putting all that aside, if it really came down to a fight to the death, Dia wouldn't have gone to so much trouble; she could have simply used time stop and ended the battle in one fell swoop.

"A bet's a bet, Dia, you're going to New Delhi, right?"

Leiza straightened up, took out a card, and asked.

Dia glanced at it; the card was called "Repatriation," and its effect was to "drive illegal intruders to the city center of a city on the continent of Ezhen."

city ​​center?

Dia thought for a moment. The city center of New Delhi seems to be a commercial street. Not far to the east of the city center is the Prince's Palace complex.

Only the tenth to fourteenth princes still live there.
