Naruto: Starting from the time when the Six Paths of Pain was Kira Yoshikage

"Number 44... certainly left a very deep impression."

Menqi picked up a fork of spaghetti and said, "The reason I'm so sensitive is because this guy keeps provoking me."

Saci echoed in agreement, "He did the same thing when he saw me, constantly testing me."

The image of Hisoka flashed through everyone's minds, and for a moment the atmosphere became somewhat silent.

Even Netero was slightly intrigued.

"My turn, my turn."

Having adjusted her mindset, Menqi happily raised her hand, drawing everyone's attention to herself. She then said, "I think the most promising candidate is number 13. If only one person can pass, it will definitely be him."

No. 13...

Menqi's words also reminded the other two examiners, who simultaneously recalled Hua Shidoulang, who had performed quite well in the exam.

If Hisoka (number 44) left a negative impression on them, then the impression left by Hua Shi Tou Lang was definitely positive.

"I admire him so much not because he helped me, and certainly not because he's handsome."

After finishing her sentence, Menqi added, "Although he is indeed quite handsome and is still my ideal type."

Who asked you that?

Buhara and Saci both glanced at Menqi, who was slightly lost in a daze.

Netero simply smiled and shook his head, thinking to himself, "Youth is wonderful."

"Compared to Hisoka, number 44... he's even more special..."

Saci and Buhara exchanged a glance and shook their heads at the same time, both believing that Menqi was simply infatuated.

Suddenly, Menqi's expression turned serious: "I don't know if you guys have noticed, but that guy is unusual...very different..."

Menqi's tone was completely different now: "I've been observing this number 13 for a long time..."

"He wasn't surprised when I announced that the dish I was going to make was sushi. While everyone else was worrying about how to make sushi, he went to take a nap. And in my first test, he was the only one who didn't serve any food..."

"But he definitely wasn't slacking off or giving up on the exam... because after the exam content was revised, he passed it smoothly..."

"To be honest, I was quite touched when he blocked Hisoka's killing intent for me, but his behavior afterward was too unusual... He was very confident, or rather, overconfident... He was even unprepared when facing Android 44."

"Either he's with Hisoka, or... he knows Hisoka won't attack him or can't attack him..."

"That's indeed the case; because of the chairman's arrival, Number 44 chose to stop..."

"When we saw the president, only number 13 showed no surprise at all; he only had an absolute confidence that everything was under control."

Menqi paused here, pondered for a few seconds, and said hesitantly, "It's as if... as if he knew all this in advance."

"But... how could that be possible?!"

As Mencius narrated, Saci and Buhara also became lost in their memories, recalling the unusual aspects of number 13, which seemed to be just as Mencius had described. Even Netero, who was listening to their conversation, became slightly interested.

"It would be good to meet this interesting young man if I had the chance."

Soon... his wish came true...

After leaving the restaurant, Chairman Netero, feeling bored, wandered around the airship and discovered two interesting little guys (Gon and Killua, who were exploring the airship). He then invited them to play a game: whoever could snatch the ball from his hands would win.

With Netero's skills, how could these two little guys possibly snatch the ball from his hands? Even if he used only one hand and one leg without any Nen abilities, they couldn't do it.

Around 3 a.m., Nitero walked out of the airship's activity room carrying the ball, casually dialed the airship captain's number, and signaled him to slow down. After hanging up, he glanced at the activity room, where Xiao Jie, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion while playing ball, was lying.

"Good evening, Chairman Netero... You seem to be having a great time with the two children."

A gentle, refined voice came from behind Netero.

Chairman Netero turned to look at the newcomer and said, "Young man... if my senses are not mistaken, you were here a long time ago... even earlier than me and those two kids."

There aren't many people in the Hunter x Hunter world who can hide from Chairman Netero's senses.

Despite his advanced age, this old man's physical condition remains at its peak.

As he finished speaking, his gaze fell on the name tag of the newcomer—number 13, Hua Shidou Lang.

Chairman Netero suddenly remembered what Menchi had said not long ago, and looked at Hua Shidoulang with interest, saying, "Did you know I would be here tonight?"

Instead of directly answering Netero's question, Hua Shidoulang countered with a question: "Do you believe in prophecy?"

"Oh ho ho ho~~" Chairman Netero was suddenly intrigued by Hua Shidoulang and stroked his long beard, saying, "This world is so vast, and there are countless extraordinary people... It's not surprising to have one or two people with prophetic abilities."

"It is said that a child in the Nosra family possessed the ability to write prophecies."

Neon Nosra, the eldest daughter of the Nosra family, a mafia organization, is a natural Nen user, a Specialist type, whose Nen ability is Angel's Auto Notebook.

Its telekinetic ability allows it to predict events that will occur within the next month by automatically writing out four-line poems in its notes.

After Chairman Netero finished speaking, Okinawa Ishitoro blinked, his eyes seeming to ask a question.

Hua Shi Tou Lang's expression remained unchanged after hearing Chairman Netero's words, maintaining his faint smile as he asked again, "Then do you believe in foresight?"

Prediction and foreknowledge of the future sound the same thing—both involve knowing information about what will happen in the future—but there are some differences in the details.

Predicting the future focuses more on an individual's advance perception of their own future experiences, while prophecy is a judgment or assertion that something will happen in the future. Predicting the future usually presents fragments of experience from a first-person perspective, and is more specific in content than prophecy.

He still didn't give Netero a direct answer, but a smart person doesn't need to be so blunt.

Upon hearing this, even Chairman Netero, who remained unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, was slightly moved.

"You mean..."

"Yes."

Hua Shi Toro nodded firmly, his expression finally changing as the corners of his mouth began to turn up. At the same time, his eyes also began to change, the dark pupils gradually fading until... a pair of light purple eyes with six circles were revealed to Chairman Netero.

Rinnegan awakened!

Hua Shidou slowly extended two fingers, pointing to his eyes.

"My eyes...can see the future!"
