Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

In an instant, terrifying malice erupted from the slug!

'This is!?'

Herchigo's pupils contracted, and he instantly recognized the slug's origin. He decisively turned and ran towards the cattail on the throne!

boom--!

An ominous dark red light suddenly appeared, followed by a violent explosion that burst forth out of thin air, and an unstoppable shockwave swept in all directions!

The shockwave rushed toward Hechigo's back at supersonic speed, and he felt a tremendous force shove him forward!

Instead of being alarmed, Hechigo was delighted. Using the force of the impact, he leaped forward and escaped the epicenter of the explosion.

The explosion lasted only a moment and covered a small area, but its power was quite astonishing.

The cattail atop the throne was flipped behind it by the impact the instant it struck, and the heavy back of the chair shielded her from the remaining force of the impact.

So when Herchigo, having barely recovered, went to the throne to look for the cattail, she emerged from behind the throne, slightly dizzy.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?"

"...I'm fine. What just happened...By the way, where's Dia?"

Xiangpu shook her head, which was slightly ringing from the explosion, and subconsciously replied, then suddenly realized—Dia seemed to have been at the center of the explosion!

"he……"

Hechgor paused for a moment. If he wasn't mistaken, Dia, who was at the epicenter of the explosion, should already be...

"I'm fine. Your assassins are interesting; they self-destruct at the drop of a hat..."

Dia's voice came from behind the throne.

The two of them were both startled and turned to look.

Dia calmly stepped off the wide back of the throne and asked thoughtfully:

"Mr. Hechigo, have you seen the slug that the assassin spat out?"

Is it some kind of teleportation ability...?

Hechigo immediately realized that Dia must have used some kind of ability to avoid the explosion:

“I have indeed seen something similar. I’m not sure if it’s the same one, but if it is, it’s not wise to stay here any longer.”

After saying this, he addressed the cattail:

"Your Majesty, it will be very dangerous here later. Let's go to the side hall first."

At the same time, seeing that Dia was safe and sound, Xiangpu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded decisively to Hechigo:

"Ok!"

"Your Highness!" "Prime Minister!"...

At this moment, the footsteps outside the palace gate and the anxious shouts of the guards finally arrived.

After the first explosion, the guards outside the gate discovered they could not contact the prime minister inside the palace. After an emergency discussion, a small number of them were sent to continue guarding the gate, while the rest rushed to the palace hall to check the situation.

Surrounded by guards, the group walked out of the main hall. Dia turned back and took a deep look at the huge pit inside the main hall, her thoughts drifting back to a few months ago.

In that unexpected secret courtroom, an almost identical explosion set the stage for almost everything that followed.

The same slug emerging from its mouth, the same terrifying malice.

The only difference is that the person who caused the explosion changed from the down-on-his-luck officer Sanley to this nameless killer.

Whether it was getting involved with Mumu Sawa, or accidentally dragging the innocent Pokson into this dangerous world, or even initially building trust with Kita, the starting point was that explosion...

-----------------

Inside the side hall.

Jin stared intently at the enormous, enclosed green worm before him, lost in thought.

"Don't bother, my [Sky Beetle Drilling No. 1] can't be opened from the outside. I advise you to just move aside..."

A weak voice came from inside the green worm, rambling on and on, trying to persuade Jin, who was deep in thought.

"You should spit out our furniture first, oh right, and that cell phone on the sofa too."

Jin casually replied.

Such words will not fool anyone:

"That trash is in the cockpit of [Tianniu Drilling No. 1], right behind me. As long as you don't stop me from going back underground, I'll find a place to vomit it out after I'm free!"

The killer among the green caterpillars patiently coaxed them.

At this moment, she was incredibly grateful that when she was dazed by the explosion, she had forcibly re-manifested [Longhorn Drilling No. 1], causing some of the surrounding entities to be sucked into the cockpit as well.

This unexpected action, instead of killing him outright, made the slovenly fellow begin to study the structure of the "Tianniu Drilling No. 1" with great interest.

He even confidently declared that he would unlock the "Tianniu Drilling No. 1" from the outside.

LOL, even I couldn't do that...

"Have it!"

Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted loudly.

Huh? Got it? What's done?

While the assassin was still completely bewildered.

Jin suddenly stood up, grinned mischievously, clenched his fist and pressed it down, and you could hear his knuckles cracking.

Immediately, Jin Meng leaped into the air, his entire body's energy flowing into his ten fingers at lightning speed!

In an instant, Jin's ten fingers flew like lightning, and countless mental projectiles the size of marbles shot out, hitting the joints of the green worm one after another!

"Wait, wait a minute! What are you doing!?"

The assassin's voice, a mixture of shock and rage, rang out, and the crackling sounds coming from all directions instantly transported her back to that nightmarish battlefield.

What exactly is this person doing...?

bang bang bang-

Like the sound of firecrackers exploding, wherever Jin's telekinetic bullets touched, the joints of [Sky Beetle Drilling No. 1] became dislocated!

In a short while, Jin landed back on the ground, looking back at the large green worm with satisfaction.

At this moment, all the joints of the [Tianniu Drilling No. 1] were disassembled, instantly turning it into a rickety metal coffin!

Sure enough, the next moment a series of crackling and clanging sounds rang out.

The parts on the caterpillar's surface fell to the ground with a crisp sound, revealing a young woman dressed in night clothes with a blank expression:

"Wh-what...you, how could this be, how could this be..."

The person in front of me only squatted there for a few minutes and successfully cracked her [Longhorn Beetle Drilling No. 1]! ? ?

He even untied it from the outside!

In other words, her abilities were completely ineffective against this slovenly old man.

Who is this person? He's a monster!

Jin bent down and picked up the phone that Diya had accidentally dropped, not worried about being attacked, and then asked with a smile:

"Now you can behave yourself, right? You're quite capable. What's your name?"

As if possessed, the assassin weakly answered Jin's question:

"I... my name is Kenzaki..."

"I'm asking about the name of your speech ability."

……

boom!

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Dia's hurried voice came through:

"Jin! I'm back. That assassin committed suicide. As for that useless caterpillar, I guess I'll just smash it to pieces..."

He froze as soon as he entered the door.

Inside the room, there were no green caterpillars to be seen, only a pile of messy furniture on the floor.

Where is the assassin?

"Dia asked curiously."

"I've put it down. Here, it's your phone."

Jin casually tossed something over.

Diya caught it and saw that it was indeed her phone.

But why?

Since Jin has found a way to open the caterpillar, it means he has captured the killer. So why did he release him after capturing him?

"Her ability allows her to take people underground, which would make dealing with underground ruins much easier, so I want to recruit her as my companion."

Jin made no attempt to conceal his actions and intentions, speaking frankly and openly.

"Can you trust those kinds of assassins? The one over there in the main hall is a death squad."

Diya had no compelling reason to kill the assassin; she was nearly blown up by the golden white bubbles the moment she showed herself, without even a chance to cause any harm.

His main concern was whether such a killer was trustworthy.

It's important to understand that not all assassins are like Killua, who can entrust their lives to each other after forming a bond.

Most hitmen, like the profession they're in, are cold-blooded and reclusive.

"Kenzaki is just a mercenary. He was hired by that guy named Que Longyi because he was out of money. He's not a threat to us at all, and he's not even in the same league as the person you're talking about."

Jin shook his head and explained to Dia the information he had obtained from his previous interrogation.

There was no way Kenzaki could lie in front of him.

For someone with such an unstable will, any change in mindset will be clearly reflected in the fluctuations of the "Entanglement" (缠), and this will not escape Jin's eyes.

"Hmm... alright then, I'll tell Xiangpu and the others that we didn't catch the assassin."
