From Hunter x Hunter to Supreme Will

Paknotan said calmly.

Isaac Netero!

"Not only does he hold a pivotal position in the mafia, it seems that within the Hunter Association, Oboro also holds a certain status... The Hunter Association is just a platform organization, not a complete group, and its members are all based on their own interests and actions."

The knight touched his chin, "Oboro is just a newcomer... He just joined, why is he so valued? Even a big shot like Netero showed up in person..."

"Could it be that he has discovered us, or has sensed our intentions, and is protecting that guy?"

Nobunaga grabbed a handful of his long hair and said doubtfully.

Paknotan on the side had already called the captain Kuroro to discuss the situation here.

"impossible."

The knight grinned, raised a finger, and looked at Nobunaga, "The opponent is the most powerful figure in the current hunter world... To be frank, with his ability alone, he can easily kill us dozens of times. In addition to this old man, there are other people in the association who can kill us without any effort... We are still alive and well, which means that we have not been exposed."

"Don't underestimate the Hunter Association... Hunters can have such influence in today's society because of the creation and promotion of the Hunter Association. And the Association can be said to be founded by this old man... Compared to them, we are just a bunch of small shrimps."

Nobunaga was upset by the knight's words, but he had to admit it.

Wo Jin spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm.

If it weren't for Kuroro's order and the rules of the group, he would have wanted to break into the hospital directly and meet the guy who killed Finks.

How strong is it...

It was the first time that their brigade acted so cautiously and timidly.

"okay, I get it."

Paknotan put down his phone and looked at the team members. "The leader means that we should retreat first."

After saying that, a group of people left one after another and temporarily stopped the surveillance.

……

On the other side, Netero came to Oboro's ward.

This is also his first appearance since Long’s accident, more than half a year later.

"Wow...you look very energetic..."

As soon as I opened the door, the old man's familiar laughter came into my ears. Long was sitting on the bed, reading an ancient Chinese document in his hand.

Looking up, I saw Netero wearing a pair of wooden clogs and a baggy training suit. He was stroking his beard with his hand, with one eye closed and the other open. He spoke in a teasing tone, a little mischievously.

"You almost killed me..."

Long is very calm.

"But you've already got what you wanted... right?"

Netero's words have hidden meaning.

He gestured to Filslily on the side and said hello.

"I get a headache every time I see you... I guess it's not a good thing for you to come see me..." Long put the book aside slowly and sighed.

"How can you say that... I came all the way here to see you!"

Netero looked grinning.

Seeing that Long didn't believe him, he changed the subject, "Well... I just feel a little bored recently, and I want you to recover quickly."

"You don't need someone like me to have fun with, right? There are so many people in the association... Especially the ones from the twelve earthly branches, please stop staring at me... After what I've been through, I feel a little nervous just looking at you now."

Long tells the truth.

It is often said that when people get old they become monsters.

Not to mention Netero, who has experienced many ups and downs, lived a colorful life, and lived for more than a hundred years...

When facing the old woman Biscuit, Oboro was able to "have the upper hand" and even had a little control over her, but when dealing with Netero, Oboro couldn't gain any advantage at all... This mission was a typical open conspiracy.

Even though he knew there was a 'trap', he had to jump into it.

We must not be careless when dealing with this old fox.

"You guys chat..."

Filslily left tactfully, called her men outside the door, and pushed herself out.

When they were the only ones left in the room, Netero regained his composure and said, "Basic actions should be fine, right..."

"I can barely walk a few steps."

"Hmm... After we have the initial actions, we will first focus on restoring our physical condition, and then our own 'Chi'. Do you have any ideas?"

Netero stared at Oboro with a half-smile.

He was asking the question intentionally to see what Long understood about Nian.

"You mean, use the external energy to nourish the flesh and blood..."

Hazy answered.

"Haha...you're really smart." Netero's eyes lit up and he praised.

Judging from the current situation, Long's mentality is good and he has not been hit hard, which is also within the old man's expectations.

The process of cultivation for a person with the ability of mind is to first sense one's own life energy, that is, 'essence', learn to control it, add self-awareness, and turn it into 'mind energy'. Then, through the means of 'entanglement', the mind energy is stabilized around the body to prevent loss. Next, it is 'refining', which has the effect of stimulating and strengthening the mind energy... By training the body, polishing the mind, etc., to make one's mind energy become full... In Long's concept, it is a process of increasing 'internal strength'.

And in the area of ​​'refining' this practice, how to increase the energy of mind?

The first thing is to strengthen the flesh, blood and bones to make your original vitality stronger.

Secondly, it absorbs external "energy" and robs other "life forms" of their energy...

But the host of this "qi" must be very weak... and the "qi" it emits must be very pure, without any distractions, otherwise it cannot be plundered.

It is equivalent to absorbing and transforming.

The reason why Oboro knew this was because in the Dark Continent chapter of the original work, when Kurapika helped ordinary people quickly become Nen users, he mentioned and described this point indirectly.

The best environment for plundering qi is nature.

Every blade of grass and every tree... these unconscious lives, emit a very weak aura, but it can be safely 'eaten'.

This is also the secret why Long went into the mountains to practice in seclusion, and why his temperament is far beyond that of ordinary people.

"It may take a long time to fully recover and reach your previous level..."

Netero said.

Long had already calculated it.

Everything started over again, from the Mauritonio Circus to joining the association... It took him nearly five years to grow, but his current condition is worse than when he was in the circus. Although his body and mind have adapted to the "thought", and he has the character and experience as a reserve, which will speed up the process, it will take at least... three years.

Don't want to wait...

If there is no other way, he will concentrate on practicing.

But there is a better way, why not use it?

"I have contacted the Zoldyck family." said Oboro.

"Oh…"

Netero was not surprised.

"You know?"

Hazy smiled.

"Yeah." Netero nodded slightly.

Oboro offers the Zoldyck family an offer they can't refuse!

However, the matter concerning Alluka is a secret.

Even though that thing was in Kukulu Mountain, it was always imprisoned and sealed... because if it wasn't 'confined', the consequences would be disastrous.

The mission of the Zoldyck family is more like guarding "that thing".

Long is going to Kukulu Mountain. No matter what happens, it will be within the territory of the Zoldyck family, and he will bear the consequences himself...so there will be no influence or harm from the outside world.

The Zoldyck family had no reason to refuse such an astronomical reward.

The real reason why Netero came to see Oboro this time was actually related to this.

Maybe from the perspective of the Zoldyck family, Oboro could know this... maybe it has something to do with Netero.

"Where did you know that?"

The old man asked with interest.

He had no doubt that the Zoldyck family had blocked information about "that thing"... and as it related to the Dark Continent and the Five Great Disasters, it was also the highest level of secret in V5, and few people would see it.

Even if Long is an old man, he will not reach that level.

"Don't tell you."

Long met the old man's eyes and smiled faintly.

Being able to arouse Netero's curiosity and not let him know the truth is an uncomfortable feeling... Oboro feels a sense of pleasure of revenge.

"Ugh."

The old man slapped his forehead, aware of the little fox's thoughts, and his expression straightened, "It can allow you to heal yourself... but with your injuries, it is probably difficult to recover completely, and... you have to pay the price. That kind of power is very dangerous... you may not be able to bear it."

"Just do as I say..."

"No, I am confident that I can achieve my goal without paying anything... the safety and success rate are 100%!"

Long flatly refused.

"Ok?"

Netero narrowed his eyes. Long was not joking. Moreover, based on his understanding of Long, he knew that this boy was serious about what he said!

"I wasn't the one who made the wish... The Zoldyck family has already noticed something..."

Hao said something.

"How much do you know about the Dark Continent?"

For the first time, Netero couldn't tell the depth of the blur.
