Creating gods in the Hunter x Hunter world

"If we include Satsuma and Kansai," said Bo Bait. "I think there shouldn't be a problem."

"Seven against one? That doesn't sound like a problem."

Fu Long thought for a moment. There are only five here, plus Sa Chang and Kansai, so it is indeed seven against one, but where do you put me?

Thinking of this, Fu Long looked at Uncle Niu.

Sure enough, Uncle Niu said, "It's not just seven against one, we also have Fu Long. If he makes a move, it will be eight against one."

"Forget it, I don't think he'll be of any help to us." Pi You didn't think highly of Fu Long.

Fu Long gritted his teeth and looked at Pi You. "Let me say thank you, okay? You still don't believe in me? Your strength is the weakest among all twelve Zodiacs, okay? I'm not even going to say anything more."

However, in Hisoka's opinion, his own strength was about the same as Kansai's.

But that was in the past. Now he has the Howling Celestial Dog, which gives him the advantage over the Mind Beast.

More importantly, there is no certain connection between his own spirit beast and Journey to the West.

Wait, why did the black book tremble as well? Fu Long's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this guy, Xiyou, is also helpful to him?

Can new scenarios be created?

If that's the case, that would be great. Also, apart from his Fiery Eyes, it seems there's nothing else that's unique to the Monkey King.

After all, it's not just Monkey King who possesses abilities like immortality.

If that's the case, perhaps after being exposed to Journey to the West, both slot machines and the Black Book will change.

"In that case, why don't we let Fu Long and the others stay here while we go up? I believe that with Fu Long's strength, securing the lower three levels shouldn't be a problem."

Piyu then made another suggestion.

Fu Long looked at Pi You, thinking, "How much do you dislike me? You've given me a support job. How awful!"

No, we absolutely cannot get stuck here; we must keep going up.

I'm determined to go on the Journey to the West.

Thinking of this, Fu Long organized the knowledge in his mind and said, "I think it would be better if I went up with you. I believe Pi You and Gu Gu can hold this place."

Pi You and Gu Gu both looked at Fu Long with dark faces. You really dare to say that.

"Don't look at me like that. Let me put it this way, I may know more about Journey to the West than you think."

Yes, everyone looked at Fu Long.

"You know Journey to the West? You must be mistaken. We've been working together for a long time, and even we don't understand it. How could you possibly know it?"

Fu Long shrugged and didn't say anything, just waiting to see what others would say.

Uncle Niu and Potobye exchanged a glance. They were among the strongest of the twelve Zodiacs, so they had a good relationship.

More importantly, both of them are probably conservative and hope to win the Journey to the West mission with minimal cost, since the Journey to the West is quite powerful.

"You mean you have the ability to understand Journey to the West?"

Fu Long shook his head and said, "As for specific abilities, I can't say I know much about them, but I can give you a reference. Have you ever thought about what would happen if there were six spirit beasts in Journey to the West instead of three?"

Six? At this, both Potobby and Uncle Niu's expressions changed.

Their previous idea of ​​seven against one was only effective if they were familiar with the opponent's abilities.

If seven people are facing one Xiyou, and the opponent has three spirit beasts, they should be able to defeat Xiyou if they can hold off the opponent's spirit beasts and then find a way to make a move.

However, there is a prerequisite: the opponent must have three spirit beasts. If the number exceeds this, then all the assumptions will no longer hold true.

Not only will they be unable to effectively strike at Journey to the West, but they might also be caught off guard by the enemy's mischievous beasts. This is not impossible.

Therefore, Fu Long's words hit the nail on the head.

To believe or not to believe, that is the question.

Chapter 282 Speculations on Journey to the West's Abilities

"Tell me about it." After saying that, Uncle Niu saw that Fu Long was still sitting there calmly, so he said, "If what you say makes sense, we can let you join us."

After speaking, Uncle Niu looked at the other twelve members.

Ginta and the others exchanged glances, then nodded one by one: "No objections."

Seeing their reaction, Fu Long said, "I remember Journey to the West mentioned his abilities before, saying that he was three monkeys with the power of thought. Is that correct?"

Several people nodded, especially Uncle Bull, who had been with Kurapika back then, so he knew a lot about the matter.

“Kurapika believes he lied back then,” Uncle Cow said.

"No, if I remember correctly, Kurapika believes that he was hiding something at the time."

Uncle Niu paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Now that you mention it, it's true. Journey to the West says a lot, including about his own abilities and his attitude towards Bi Yangde."

Fu Long then said, "If someone is completely lying, it is easy for others to see through it. Not to mention that there are all kinds of Nen abilities, some people can tell the truth from the lies just by their expressions and state. So, when the Journey to the West was talking, he must have used a method of half-truth and half-lie."

Uncle Niu and the others nodded again, and their gazes toward Fu Long changed slightly.

Fu Long wasn't even there at the time, but the effect he delivered was almost the same as if he had been there, which is quite impressive.

Fu Long saw the look in the other person's eyes and could only smile wryly. There was nothing he could do; he wasn't actually there, but reading a comic book was pretty much the same thing.

I can't say that.

"Alright, since it's half true and half false, we can understand it this way: he only revealed half of his abilities and hid the other half, and the hidden half is his true strength."

"How to say?"

"The Journey to the West describes its thought beasts as sight, hearing, and speech. However, according to the theory of the six senses, they should be sight, hearing, smell, taste, mind, and body. If we match these up, the three thought beasts in Journey to the West correspond to sight, hearing, and taste. So, what is the effect of smell, mind, and body?"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Niu fell into deep thought, and the other members were also pondering their own ideas.

“How can you be certain of the existence of the three elements of nose, mind, and body?” Potobbai asked.

Fu Long just smiled and said, "It's better not to ask about some secrets."

Can I say this is written in Journey to the West? At that time, the Monkey King killed six bandits, which means he destroyed his six senses.

These six senses are the six things you describe.

"According to him, if these are indeed the six things, then the effect of the nose is that you can't breathe?" Uncle Niu said.

Because if it's just that you can't smell it, it doesn't seem to be a big problem for some people.

So, if someone can't breathe, that would be a real problem.

You know, people breathe through their noses, which supplies oxygen to their bodies. If someone really gets hit by this trick, they might be unable to use their abilities properly during the final battle due to insufficient oxygen supply.

"So, guessing, it must be related to Nen, or rather, if you are hit, you will enter a state of absolute."

"As for the body, it's estimated that the body will be completely unable to move."

After they finished speaking, they all gasped.

That's actually quite possible.

If it's really as I guessed, then it explains why Journey to the West only mentioned "Monkey King" three times.

The three remaining unmentioned monkey spirits are the real killer moves.

Think about it, even if it was seven against one at the time, if the Nen Monkeys were distributed according to the previous system, once someone was hit by the opponent's Nen Monkeys (body or mind), then someone would be unable to move or use Nen.

The effects of the battles at that time were vastly different.

"Moreover, Xiyou is also a martial arts master with extremely strong combat power and a balanced offense and defense. If we were to fight without knowing his trump cards, we would be at a disadvantage."

Piyou finally began to take Fu Long's intelligence seriously.

Fu Long was no longer in a hurry, because after saying all that, he was certain that he had taken the initiative.

I believe that either Potobby or Uncle Niu will find a way to get themselves involved as well.

This way, at least a certain level of combat strength can be guaranteed.

“On another note, can such an ability be used at will?” Gu Gu raised a different opinion.

“It’s certainly unlikely that we can use it directly, but we have no idea what the conditions for using it would be. However, we have to take precautions,” Fu Long said softly. “Besides, I have the ability to deal with Nen Beasts.”

This statement was a fatal blow, and everyone looked at Fu Long.

"If possible, I request to fight Xiyou one-on-one first. This way, we can at least deplete his mental energy and abilities until he uses his mental beast. Then you can go in. This way, we can at least create conditions for capturing Xiyou."

Fu Long is now also interested in competing with the Twelve Branches, since he usually deals with ordinary psychic users who are not very strong.

Fu Long couldn't help but think of what Hisoka had said: what he lacked at the moment was not ability or Nen, but a real life-or-death struggle with others.

Journey to the West is a good choice.

As one of the twelve branches, their strength should be among the top tier.

And if he fights him, he will not die regardless of the outcome, because there are other members of the twelve tribes behind him.

As for whether there are any helpers on the other side of the Journey to the West, it's hard to say. Maybe, but it's none of my business.

If you don't use the environment in the battle, fighting against someone from Journey to the West might allow you to gain something new.

Most importantly, the name Journey to the West is very good and matches his mental power.

“Okay, if that’s the case, then you’ll go to the battle against Journey to the West.” Piyou finally relented.

“Piyou and I will stay, and the rest are yours,” Gu Gu said. Her combat strength wasn’t the best either, so staying behind would be more effective.

Fu Long thought for a moment, then pointed to Billian and said, "Billian stays here too; she doesn't need to come up with me."

"Fu Long".

"There's no room for negotiation. You're no match for Journey to the West. Even if you could use my abilities, it wouldn't work."

Billian looked at Fu Long and finally had no choice but to nod. There was no sign of backing down in Fu Long's eyes.

"This is no joke. If you go up there, I'll have to figure out how to protect you. I might very well die there."

Billian then completely dismissed her thoughts and said nothing more. She fully understood what Fu Long meant.

Billian knew that his own strength would indeed be a hindrance in high-level battles, but he was just a little unwilling to accept it.
