From Hunter x Hunter to Supreme Will

I'm afraid he won't become the Fourteenth Prince's bodyguard like in the original novel.
Of course, Long didn’t care much about these things...Jin’s goal was achieved.
Xiaojie definitely gained the expected growth in this matter... Although the internal strife and disputes in the royal family were eventually settled, it also marked the beginning of the war of succession.
Perhaps, at that moment, Hui Guorou had already informed all the princes about the Egg in the Pot Ceremony... and Jin Fulisi also successfully met the eldest prince Benjamin.
That's right, through the soul connection, Long one day clearly felt that Jin Fulishi appeared in the eldest prince's bedroom in the name of saving Benjamin as a hired person.
Of course, in the end...it failed.
However, knowing about Benjamin's injury also meant that Jin Fulisi knew a part of Long's abilities.
soul!
"Although your soul has been divided, it is not fatal... It is just draining your vitality bit by bit. The only way to recover quickly is to find the culprit!" This is what Jin Fuli said to Benjamin at the time.
But he changed the subject, "I have a way to keep you alive, but even if you are cured, your physical condition will not be the same as before... Soul, or energy, is also a part of life. Your basic flesh, blood and spirit are still there, and they can be slowly nourished and conditioned. The only problem is... time. It is unimaginably difficult to nourish the soul again, and it will take a very long time..."
At that time, the eldest prince had become so thin that he was just skin and bones. He was barely able to survive by relying on a large number of syringes to deliver nutrient solution. He didn't even have the strength to speak.
His eyes responded to Jinfulis' answer.
Benjamin knew about the War of Succession... By the time he was cured, the War of Succession might have ended long ago, and even the throne might have belonged to someone else.
Then what's the point of him living?
Besides, others may have died earlier...
So, in the end, Jinfulis left.
However, of all the people the Kakin royal family had consulted, this was the only one who said that there was a way to cure Benjamin.
"soul…"
Long still remembers the look in Jinfulis's eyes when he looked back at Benjamin before leaving the room.
Jinfulis has already figured it out... This soul power comes from the Island of Heroes and is too similar to a game character, Thresh!
Long even knew that Jin Fulisi had already noticed the existence of his hidden consciousness.
The other party seemed to be communicating with Benjamin, but in fact... some of the words were spoken to himself.
Jinfulis realized that Long was deeply developing the character and ability of Thresh...
After all, he is also a veteran player of Hero Island.
But even if it was discovered, Long didn't care much, because the background information about Thresh was hidden, and even if Jinfulis could make some speculations, it would not be complete.
Besides, it's just a hammer...
Some things...are already too late.
Longdu only had a general understanding of these events that happened in the Kajin Empire and did not focus too much on them.
His main focus is still on several team members.
Give Men Qi and others a hellish special training.
It is now January, and by the beginning of April, the hidden dangers of chimera ants will be exposed to the public.
That was... a very delicious feast for him.
Chapter 191 A Banquet for You in Hell
In the room of the eldest prince Benjamin.
King Nasby stood in front of the bed, looking at his son, who looked like a completely different person than he was a few months ago, with an expressionless face.
At this time, the eldest prince was still in a coma. In a 24-hour day, Benjamin could only remain conscious for three hours.
Based on his vital status, the expert replied that Benjamin could still live for about half a month.
"Come out...I know you're there."
Gray Guorou said lightly.
Like talking to someone.
"Don't you always want to talk to me in person?"
There was no one else in the house except him and a few private soldiers.
There was silence in the air.
No response.
After waiting for a full minute, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred.
Benjamin, whose body was full of tubes, emitted wisps of faint green smoke from his body, and then a soul came out of his body and floated above.
That blurry ghost face looked down at the fat and calm ruler of a country in front of him.
Then, the ghost face trembled and uttered a vague voice: "I thought... you could really be patient and abandon your son."
The several private soldiers standing nearby changed their expressions slightly when they saw this familiar ghost.
"..."
Huiguorou also remained silent.
"He has good potential...right?"
"If he can stand out from the Egg in the Pot ceremony, he might become an outstanding national leader in the future. Compared with your other sons, he is indeed capable of bringing Kakin to a more powerful height." The ghost floated in front of Hui Guorou, swaying back and forth.
This scene made several private soldiers particularly nervous.
"Tell me your terms."
Hui Guorou did not show any fear at all, as if he was not afraid that the ghost in front of him would cause him some kind of harm or attack.
"You don't need me to give you the qualifications, right? After all, you can do it with your ability. It's just that I can't convince V5..."
Hui Guorou was calm and composed. "Smuggling and following the formal process are two different things... Afterwards, even if you come back alive from the Dark Continent and minimize the negative impact, as long as you return to the human world, you will definitely be targeted and restricted by V5. It will be almost impossible to go there again for a second time."
"So, our plan for the imaginary new world is also beneficial to you... How about I give you a qualification, let you board my ship and enjoy the same treatment as the royal family. Of course, all this is based on the premise that you and I work together... As for the royal regime, you'd better not try to interfere. We can cooperate. Moreover, once the new world is successfully built, as one of the pioneers, you can also use the power of the Firth family to get the first bite of meat. No matter how you look at it... you will not lose out."
"Hehehe..."
The ghost smiled and said, "Not ordinary... From your performance, it can be seen that every king who can pass the egg in the pot ritual is not simple. It can indeed make Kajin more powerful... This makes it twice as difficult for external forces to destroy or reduce the foundation of your country."
Hearing what Long said, Hui Guorou smiled, as if he was very pleased with the former's praise.
Smiling.
"However, you can hide it from V5, but you can't hide it from me... You know the horror of the Dark Continent better than anyone else. Ka Jin doesn't want to go to the Dark Continent at all. You just want to find some islands close to the Dark Continent and tell those immigrants that it is the so-called Dark Continent, creating an imaginary new world. The real purpose is to threaten V5... You broke a hole and took the lead in occupying a resource transfer station between the Dark Continent and the human world. You know very well that this hole will become bigger and bigger in the future. If human adventurers want to explore the Dark Continent for a long time, they will definitely need such a corner, and this key point is in your hands..."
"Biyangde is the one who truly wants to explore the Dark Continent... but you are not."
"Also... the true principle of the succession battle of the Egg in the Pot ritual is to raise a Gu, right?"
When Long controlled the soul and whispered the last words in Hui Guorou's ear, the fat man's smile suddenly disappeared.
"Using the flesh and blood of other royal families to nourish the chosen one, does it increase the chosen one's qualifications, strength, or talent? Everyone is just a target to be devoured and absorbed... And the chosen one, is it the prince... or you?"
"..."
There was silence in the room.
Hui Guorou first glanced at Li Han and other private soldiers, waved his hand, and signaled them to go out.
Several private soldiers were shocked and felt that they had heard some incredible information, but when they noticed the king's cold eyes, they quickly left one after another.
The following conversation between the king and Long was not something they could listen to... Just this little bit of information could potentially cost them their lives.
"You're so alert, it seems like what I said came true..."
the ghost taunted.
Long remembered clearly that on the Black Whale in the Dark Continent chapter, Hui Guorou prepared fourteen coffins.
There were a total of fourteen princes participating in the Egg in the Pot ceremony, which was different from the rules of the ceremony. According to the purpose of the ceremony, the best heir was to be selected. In other words, if thirteen princes died, what about the remaining one...
Long guessed that Huiguorou prepared it for himself, or it might be for the prince who was left in the end.
Once the ceremony selects a successor, he will invisibly become the new king of Kajin, which means that Huiguorou will die immediately.
Otherwise, Huiguorou and the final selected person will go through some additional ceremony to compete and see who is better.
He who survives becomes king.
The dead are placed in coffins.
In other words, Gu also includes gray Guo meat.
There are fifteen people in total. His challenger must first win among the princes before he is qualified to duel with him.
Long has experienced the ritual and felt the power of the ritual... The birth of this ability revolves around a will and purpose.
The goal of the Egg in the Pot Ritual is to make Kajin strong and invincible.
In this case, it doesn't matter who becomes king, as long as he is a better person.
Whether he will kill all his sons with his own hands to consolidate his position, or be overthrown by the new king...it all depends on everyone's performance.
Of course, a scene of father and son killing each other may not necessarily occur. Maybe after the ceremony is over, a prince will stand out and the gray meat will automatically "disappear".
This possibility is relatively small.
Because in the original work, Kurapika is one of the protagonists, and the Fourteenth Prince he protects should be the final winner. However, the Fourteenth Prince is just a baby in swaddling clothes. If such a person dies, how can he become the ruler of a country and control the entire Kakin?
Perhaps, the biggest winner is Huiguorou himself.
"Is it the ability to absorb your own flesh and blood? You are so cruel..."
Long sneered.
The eldest prince Benjamin has outstanding abilities. Such materials... If we follow Long's guess and use them to raise Gu, then it would be a pity for Hui Guorou if he died. Even if it is not used for absorption, it will inevitably become nutrients for the egg in the pot. You know, the power of the beast born from the egg in the pot... can't appear out of thin air. It has been passed down for so long, and it must need something to keep feeding. No matter how strong the afterlife is, it will be worn away little by little over time... Supplies are very necessary.
Those who are eliminated in the ritual are the nutrients that will be eaten by the eggs in the pot...
These are the two modes of raising Gu.
"Tell me, I can back off and try to meet your requirements..."
