Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Dia placed a steaming glass of water on the table and said:

"Try it as I taught you yesterday, just pour your energy into the water."

Poxon nodded, closed his eyes, and placed his hands on either side of the water glass.

When Dia's class covered the topics of "Nen Ability Types" and "Water Recognition," she insisted on performing a Water Recognition to see her own type.

Although Dia herself already knew that Poxon was a [Specialist].

But to calm her down, I got her a cup of hot water from the boiler room and picked a leaf from the flower bed to satisfy Pokson's request.

"Well--"

Pokson controlled his Nen to move into the water glass between his hands, and after a short while, a strange phenomenon occurred.

The water level in the glass was slowly dropping!

"This is……"

Pokson was taken aback. What was going on? She remembered that the [Enhancement] skill would raise the water level, so why was her water level dropping...?

"It's a [Specialty] type, no need to think about it."

Diya put the glass of water away without any surprise, but then noticed that the bottom of the glass was wet.

He looked down and saw that there was a small puddle of water where the cup had been.

But the water level in the cup hasn't risen, so why is water overflowing...?

"Hmm... [Specialty], huh? Then how about my ability development..."

Pokson muttered to herself that she was actually a rare trait type, which surprised and delighted her.

So, she couldn't wait to ask further questions.

But at that very moment, the lights in the room suddenly went out!

A broadcast message came from outside the door to the still bewildered Poxon:

"Dear candidates, we regret to inform you that the Trafalgar is currently in a state of malfunction and cannot proceed any further. The captain is currently attempting to rectify the situation..."

"If you wish to continue the test, you can find what you need in the fire extinguisher cabinets in the corner of the hall. If you simply want to give up the test, stay inside the Trafalgar and don't move around easily..."

Upon hearing this voice, Dia immediately understood that the people outside and Poxon were experiencing pre-battle tension.

Just like in the manga, the captain of the large ship heading to Kent promised to take Gon and the others to Kent, what's appearing on this airship now is probably a similar selection test for candidates!

"Did you hear that? Let's go check out that fire extinguisher cabinet in the lobby!"

Pokson seemed even more anxious than him, constantly urging him to hurry up and check the fire cabinet in the lobby mentioned on the broadcast.

The Hunter Exam officially begins on January 7th every year. The exact time is unknown, but it's unlikely to start in the morning.

The airship they were on should have been able to arrive in Gramgaslan on time.

Once they land, as long as they act quickly, passing the first test shouldn't be too difficult.

But... that's [logically speaking].

If, for some reason, they are delayed by half a day or even a whole day on the airship, then it is almost certain that they will miss the first exam!

The two walked out of the now completely dark room and found that the hallway lights were working normally, and sunlight was shining in from outside.

The way they just plunged the room into darkness was probably a subtle way of reminding the test-takers to come out of the room quickly; it was surprisingly gentle...

Before even reaching the hall, Dia heard a very clear argument, even the clanging of swords and spears, indicating that a conflict had broken out.

Turning the corner and entering the hall, a chaotic scene came into view: people were wrestling and arguing heatedly, their faces flushed. A rough voice roared:

"That's mine! I saw it first!"

Another voice, not to be outdone, roared...

"I got this parachute first, go and grab your own!"

What they were stealing was the parachute pack, which was essential for an emergency landing from the airship!

Chapter 260 The Hunter Association's Liars! × Look at my face, don't pretend you don't recognize me!

Why are they fighting?

That was Poxon's first thought upon seeing this scene.

But a broken parachute on the ground made her understand everything in an instant!

Without a parachute, there is absolutely no possibility of making an emergency landing on the ground, which also means that you will most likely miss the exam.

What they were fighting over wasn't the parachute, but the exam qualification; what was torn to shreds on the ground wasn't the parachute, but the hope of a certain candidate!

Swish!

Having figured everything out, Poxon rushed out without hesitation. She didn't even notice that Dia, who should have been just as anxious, was leisurely watching everything thoughtfully.

"Get out of here..."

Just as a burly man was about to pounce on a parachute on the ground, he saw Poxon charging menacingly towards him. Instinctively, his eyes flashed with ferocity, and he threw a punch in a gruff voice!

His fist, as big as a sandbag, brought a fierce gust of wind and slammed down towards Poxen's head. This punch was undoubtedly meant to kill her on the spot!

however……

Before the big man could react, the girl, who was not even half his size, casually parried the powerful punch and simultaneously delivered a whip kick from below, slamming it into his stomach!

boom!

The burly man's figure flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the airship wall with a loud bang. His head lolled to the side, and his fate was unknown.

The air fell silent instantly.

Everyone stared blankly at the burly man who was now lying like a dead dog; even Pokson himself was taken aback.

She had only intended to take a punch to force the big man away, but who would have thought that her instinctive kick would have such terrifying power...

Dia squinted, watching Poxon's retreating figure:

'He mastered the manipulation of Nen without being taught...'

As an observer, he clearly saw that at the moment the fists and feet clashed, Poxon's Nen energy flowed instinctively to his hands and legs!

This is basically a weaker version of [Flow].

'What amazing talent!'

Dia stroked her chin, looking with satisfaction at Poxon's back, who stood there dumbfounded like a novice.

As an important part of the next plan, the more intelligent and quick-witted she is, the more advantageous it will be for Dia.

After a moment of shock at Poxon's punch, the chaotic noise resumed.

However, as everyone was vying for the girl, they all tacitly moved aside to avoid her, who was not particularly large.

After regaining his senses, Pokson frowned and looked around warily. He grabbed two seemingly intact parachutes from the ground and ran to Dia's side without looking back.

"Here, these are yours. Let's go..."

As soon as Poxon handed the parachute to Dia, he tried to grab Dia's hand and rush toward the hatch.

At this point, more than half of the people inside the airship were visibly gone. Those who had parachutes made the decision to jump to avoid being targeted.

"Don't rush, wait a little longer..."

Diya pressed down on her restless little hand, pulled her to his side, and watched the situation unfold with her.

Pokson looked at him with a bit of confusion, not understanding what was going on, but trusting his judgment, he didn't say anything and obediently stood still.

As time went by, fewer and fewer people came, and fewer and fewer umbrellas appeared.

As the last parachute was thrown out of the cabin, the person who threw it frantically chased after it and jumped out of the airship, leaving those without parachutes in a state of confusion.

"Forehead……"

Several people looked at Dia and his companion, who were the only two people with parachutes at the moment, and wanted to rush up and snatch them, but they were scared off by the dangerous aura emanating from him.

They definitely couldn't win in a fight; they couldn't even compete with those who had already jumped down, let alone the obviously stronger Dia and her companion.

"Aren't we going to check on the cockpit?"

Suddenly, Dia said calmly to those people:

"It doesn't make sense that the captain only prepared parachutes for the passengers but not for himself."

Those who stayed behind were all stunned. Right, there must be a spare parachute in the cockpit!

Immediately, those people rushed excitedly to the driver's cab as if they had grasped at a straw.

however……

"Liar! The Hunter Association is full of liars!"

A voice filled with grief and indignation came first from the corridor leading to the cockpit, followed by a man running out with a face full of resentment, shouting:

"There's no one in the cockpit! Those Hunter Association staff members have already run away! We're doomed!"

"What, what do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, a thin man in the crowd immediately became anxious and stammered, his eyes wide open:

"What do you mean we're doomed!?"

"There's nothing in the cockpit! That announcement is just playing on a set schedule!"

The man, his face filled with resentment, said in despair:

"Those people from the Hunter Association abandoned us on this lousy airship!"

The remaining crowd erupted in uproar. A few skeptical individuals, clinging to their last hope, rushed into the cockpit, only to emerge in despair a short while later, collapsing helplessly to their knees.

What that person said was true...

When everyone realized this, an atmosphere of despair and helplessness immediately spread.

At the same time, some people, their eyes reddening, looked at Diya, who was calmly watching from the sidelines, like starving wolves.

They didn't have the courage to fight against Dia just now because they still had a way out; if they couldn't succeed this time, they could always try again next time.
