Inside an unfinished building in Youkexin City.

With his trench coat and slicked-back hair, Chrollo Lucilfer addressed his assembled crew, saying, "I want them all!"

"No matter what it is, we'll take all the treasures from the auction!"

The crowd below the platform was stunned.

Wanting them all? That's not like the leader at all! Did the leader lose all his money gambling and want to recoup it through this auction?

With a hint of doubt and a touch of excitement in his eyes, Uvogin said, "Captain, are you serious? This auction has gathered many underworld organizations from all over the world. If we do this, it's like making enemies of all the underworld organizations in the world."

Kuroro stared at Uvogin and asked calmly, "Are you scared?"

Uvogin, as if insulted, gritted his teeth, grinding them so hard they made a cracking sound, his eyes filled with a crazed killing intent: "I'm afraid, no, I'm happy, I'm so...so...happy."

Kuroro showed a satisfied expression.

Uvogin looked at Kuroro eagerly: "Captain, give the order! I can't wait to wreak havoc!"

Infected by Uvogin's emotions, everyone shouted in unison, "Commander, give the order!"

Seeing that people were willing to cooperate, Kuroro smiled arrogantly and lifted his trench coat: "Now I order you to kill everyone at the auction! And rob everything!"

Kuroro took the lead and walked out of the unfinished building.

The crowd followed behind him, making a noisy and lively noise.

Uvogin was shouting things like "Anyone who gets in my way will die."

However, no one saw the coldness and murderous intent hidden in Hisoka's eyes as he cheered with them.

Luo Yan and his group ordered Hisoka to infiltrate the Phantom Troupe and wait for an opportunity to pass on messages to them. When the opportunity arose, Hisoka could also directly attack the members of the Phantom Troupe, cripple them, and then hand them over to Luo Yan and his group to finish them off.

In order to motivate Hisoka to work diligently, Weston promised to create opportunities for Hisoka and Chrollo to fight one-on-one, and to release Hisoka from his slave contract after these tasks were completed.

Hisoka didn't seem particularly excited about terminating the contract.

He was outmatched and got tricked by Luo Yan and his group; it was his own fault, and losers should bear the consequences of their failures.

However, Hisoka was excited about fighting Chrollo one-on-one.

Hisoka's interest lies in fighting strong opponents. He joined the Phantom Troupe not to steal, but simply to fight Chrollo.

In the original work, he was willing to act as a spy for Kurapika in order to fight Chrollo.

And now he is willing to act as a spy for Luo Yan and others for the same reason.

When the entire Phantom Troupe gathered in Yorknew City, there were only three days left before the auction.

After arriving, the Phantom Troupe spent the last few days scouting the area, planning their escape route, and preparing tools for the crime.

Hisoka watched them busy but made no attempt to help, nor did he pass on any information to Luo Yan and the others.

Hisoka was waiting, waiting for the Phantom Troupe to start the theft, and then notifying Luo Yan and the others to take action after the members dispersed.

……

Three days ago, almost all the underworld leaders from around the world sent their second-in-commands to attend the auction after receiving invitations from the Ten Elders.

Three days later, outside the auction building, luxury cars gathered and flowers were laid out like a carpet.

One by one, men in suits and ties, looking fierce and menacing, stepped out of their cars, arm in arm with their charming female companions, and entered the auction hall.

If you're going to put on a show, you have to go all the way.

In order to attract the tour group to show up, Luo Yan and his group arranged this auction, where the guests were real and the auction items were real.

Kuroro is a cautious person; without actually holding an auction, it would be impossible to fool him.

As for how many guests at this auction will be killed by the troupe, Luo Yan and his group don't care.

Since all the people attending the auction were from the underworld, their female companions could only wait in the restaurant below and had no chance to participate in the official auction.

When the time comes, these scumbags will all be killed by the Phantom Troupe, and their deaths will be nothing to regret.

Outside the auction, atop a building, a member of the guild, a swordsman, used binoculars to observe the security arrangements surrounding the auction.

"They're very well prepared. Those security guards are nothing but gangsters and thugs; they're armed with real knives and guns hidden under their suits."

Uvogin, who was tall and looked like a savage, scoffed, "Knives and guns, what use are they? They're just scratching an itch."

Uvogin had the confidence to say this. He was an Enhancement-type Devil Fruit user, strong enough to withstand the bombardment of rocket launchers head-on. Ordinary pistol bullets couldn't even penetrate his skin.

"I really envy Franklin, being able to go inside and kill to his heart's content." Uvogin crossed his arms, spat out a mouthful of phlegm, and looked displeased.

The knight laughed and said, "Uvogin, you are very strong, but when it comes to killing efficiency, Franklin's dual machine guns are more suitable for this mission."

Uvogin did not argue; it was a fact.

He fights by taking down enemies with a single punch, while Franklin, as an Emission-type Devil Fruit user, shoots Nen bullets from his ten fingers, making him ten times more efficient.

"Yawn, Franklin and Feitan, Shizuku and the others have already infiltrated the venue, right? I hope they move quickly, steal the stuff, and get out of there as soon as possible."

There were two other people on the rooftop, the beautiful girl Machi and Nobunaga. They were guarding the hot air balloon on the rooftop, waiting for the action team at the venue to finish looting the items so they could help Feitan and the other two leave.

For this operation, Chrollo divided the Phantom Troupe members into three groups.

Franklin, Feitan, and Shizuku are the members of the action team responsible for carrying out murder and theft missions.

Shalnark, Uvogin, Nobunaga, and Machi are part of the support team, responsible for initial on-site observation, intelligence gathering, personnel deployment, and rescue.

In the end, Kuroro, Hisoka, Razor, Phinks, Pakunoda, and Kubi remained on standby at the unfinished building and did not participate in the operation.

After Kuroro assigned the manpower, Hisoka immediately relayed the message to Luo Yan and the others.

Having obtained the location and action time of each member of the brigade, Luo Yan and his group also began to take action.

A huge trap slowly loomed over the group.

Chapter 144 The Spider Falls into the Web

In the magnificent auction hall, gangsters slowly took their seats.

People whispered among themselves, waiting for the conference to officially begin.

Ahead, the curtain slowly rose, and radio frequency lights converged on the auction stage.

The auction stage displayed a tall figure and a short figure.

The tall man closed his eyes, crossed his arms and hung down, his aura as steady as a mountain.

The short man leaned on the auction platform with both hands, his triangular, squinting eyes scanning the crowd like a venomous snake.

Although both men were wearing suits, their fierce and menacing expressions made them look more like gangsters than auction hosts.

However, considering that this was an auction hosted by the Ten Elders, and that everyone present was a member of the underworld, it was understandable that they would hire two underworld figures to host the event, since a normal host wouldn't be able to keep the event in check.

Everyone sat upright, holding their breath and listening attentively to the host's welcoming remarks.

"Welcome, everyone! Time is of the essence, so let's skip the formalities and just die now!"

Feitan, speaking into the microphone, announced the deaths of everyone present with a mocking tone.

Everyone was stunned!

"What is this little dwarf saying?"

Did I hear that right?

Many people were enraged and stood up, ready to shout at Feitan.

Franklin, who had been standing behind Feitan, suddenly opened his eyes, raised his hands, and revealed a cruel expression.

"Die, all of you! Dual-wielding machine guns!"

Franklin spread his ten fingers, and his fingertips fell off automatically, revealing finger bones that looked like the black muzzles of guns.

"Da da da da da da..."

Unseen by ordinary people, but with no place to hide in the eyes of Nen users, a storm of Nen bullets rained down on everyone in the auction house.

The power of the psychic projectiles was immense. The guests in the front row were instantly torn to pieces. The projectiles pierced through their bodies and shattered the people and chairs in the back rows as well.

People were in a panic; they couldn't see the bullets attacking, only that people around them were being shot dead.

Some people panicked and fled towards the exit, while others grabbed the people next to them to use as shields, lying on the ground, trying to play dead to escape.

But none of this worked. Franklin's telekinetic power seemed inexhaustible. He fired thousands of telekinetic bullets in a minute, riddling the entire auction hall with holes. Even using other people's corpses as cover, no one could escape death.

Those who were quick-witted managed to escape the auction, but they were killed by the waiting Xiao Di outside the venue.

Franklin engaged in a satisfying massacre within the meeting hall.

Somewhere outside the auction venue, Weston and his men, who had already set up a trap, began their operation.

They listened to the proceedings at the meeting using eavesdropping devices.

Weston judged that the time was ripe to act, and said to Bruce beside him, "Detonate the explosives under the auction stage."

Bruce nodded and pressed the detonator in his hand.

boom!

A massive explosion occurred below the auction platform.

Franklin and Feitan, who were indiscriminately slaughtering people, were the first to be engulfed by the explosion.

At the moment of the explosion, Feitan became alert. As the platform was bulged up by the shockwave, Feitan made a decisive move, abandoning Franklin and desperately fleeing towards the outside of the platform.

The massive flames engulfed Franklin, who, having exhausted a great deal of his psychic power, was utterly unable to withstand the power of the high explosives.

This massive explosion was as powerful as two hundred hand grenades exploding simultaneously.

Even Uvogin would have a tough time against him, let alone Franklin, an Emission type.

He died instantly, and even Feitan, who managed to escape in time, was caught up by the shockwave and blasted into a wall, breaking several of his bones.

"Cough cough..."

Feitan, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, struggled to his feet.

"Damn it, this is a trap. Who is plotting against us?"

Feitan, his killing intent boiling, sped towards the auction house exit, wanting to escape and tell the leader what was happening.

However, in order to ensure the deaths of the brigade members.
