From Hunter x Hunter to Supreme Will

"Go back now while there's still time."

Normally, Long seldom smiled at them, and this smile immediately made the three of them's eyes red.

"Let's..."

Men Qi's mouth trembled.

Long shook his head. "I came to this world not for power, nor for friends or human beings. I came only for myself, so... this game in the Dark Continent has no effect on me. I thought this first expedition was just a trial... I could return to prepare, but I didn't expect that if I went too deep, it would be difficult to leave."

"It was indeed my mistake..."

"There's no point in going back now because I'll definitely come back... it's a definite waste of time."

"I'll leave the human side to you..."

"I want to try and see if, as a pure human being, I can win without participating in this evolution... I want to conquer this place, I want to overthrow the 'rules' of this continent!"

"Perhaps, Dongfulisi...thinks so too."

"With the most primitive and weakest genes, I set foot on the top of this 'gene breeding ground'."

"After you go back, remember to reach a consensus with V5 and prohibit humans from getting involved here."

"Maybe, one day in the future, I will go back... If I haven't changed, I will naturally meet you. If I have changed... forget it."

"This is the last order I give you as your captain. It is a death order!"

"go back!"

Keep the human appearance and essence, go back!

Chapter 258 The final farewell

Long's serious look and attitude finally convinced Men Qi and the other two.

Because they also know that they are not suitable here.

If Long hadn't been there, they would have died long ago.

And the most important point is that if it weren't for the three of them, with the captain's ability, he would have found the "door" to the heart of the Dark Continent by now.

The captain is protecting them.

And their departure was also a disguised way of helping Long.

"In fact... with our level, let alone making it here, we wouldn't be able to survive more than a day even on the edge of the desert." Anthony sneered. He was referring to the first time they landed on the coast, that night when they were protected by a hazy ghost fog.

The temperature in the desert drops sharply at night, and the life forms of all sizes appear much more densely than during the hot day.

The three of them looked at each other, then left the city in the house together, retraced their route on the flying bird they came from, and sped towards the seaside.

Over the past few years, although Oboro has been developing Thresh's abilities, his trip to the Dark Continent made him realize the essence of energy, so abilities such as teleportation and flash will also be optimized through the operation of the essence of energy. For example, teleportation used to be a single teleportation, which was only used for Oboro himself and could not bring others. But now Oboro can carry some "items" within his ability when teleporting.

Objects can be dead or alive.

It is equivalent to being able to achieve the effect of 'group teleportation'.

But the problem is that the marks left in advance, that is, the eye positions in the game, are time-limited.

Once the time limit is exceeded, the ward will automatically disappear. The last time Long placed a ward, it was in the "safe base" in the oasis, which was also the training ground where they spent a long time. Long could teleport directly and take them away, but there was no way for the three of them to leave the Dark Continent. Even if the three of them reached the coastline, there were still many giant creatures like pink octopuses living near the coast, and they were still in danger.

To be on the safe side, Long planned to personally send them to a small island closest to the Dark Continent, away from the offshore area.

Although doing so would waste time, time no longer had any meaning to Long now...

Relying on the strength of his flesh and blood alone, his lifespan can last at least several hundred years.

Several people were flying high in the sky, and the wind was whistling.

Gabwich uses his ability to transmit mental signals and communicate.

"Captain...those hopes." Men Qi said.

"Don't bring any of them back...Hide the truth. Although humans are aware of their own weakness, they have not yet figured out the essence. The desires of the human heart are endless...Since fleeing to the island in the lake, the best result is that humans have relied on their own wisdom to give birth to technological civilization, which is also because they have broken away from the rules of the Dark Continent. But compared to the Dark Continent, human civilization is still too fragile...Maybe one day civilization will evolve to the extraordinary, or even control the rules, but not now."

Long said calmly: "Evolution and combination are factors that are affected by the food chain and ecology. The food chain and ecology of the human world are too low-end... The speed of evolution is impossible to be as fast as that of the Dark Continent. It will only fall further and further behind and will never be surpassed. But technology is unpredictable... The only way to break through the Dark Continent is to integrate into the game of the Dark Continent through the mutated individuals among humans, and then seek a breakthrough through a single point... Dong Fu Li Shi is like this, and so am I."

"Gebwich's notes can be kept for V5's reference, but a lot of information must be deleted and erased, revealing only the 'limited areas' they can understand and explore."

"Yes."

"So...what about you..."

"Just say that you have been wandering around the edges and have lost contact with me. I am not sure whether I am alive or dead."

Hajime replied.

We cannot say that he is dead. If they determine that he is dead, V5 and some forces in the human world will surely become restless, and the Hunter Association will no longer be able to enjoy such benefits and treatment.

As long as he is alive, he exists in this world in any sense.

The enemy will be afraid.

However, there is no need to worry too much, because although Men Qi and the other two seemed weak in the Dark Continent, after several years of growth and changes, their current strength when they return to the Island in the Lake is definitely top-notch and can be ranked among the top world-class Nen users.

If the news got out that he was able to return alive from the Dark Continent, it would be enough to cause a sensation and be recorded in history.

He is fully qualified to be compared with people like Netero, Linne and Bijande.

It took them about three years to cross the desert and oasis from the coastline, not counting the time they spent training. This time, the return trip shortened the time greatly, taking only a year. Long sent the three of them to a small island. Although it was still a certain distance from the human world, it was at least out of danger.

"So be it…"

At noon, outside the jungle on the island, on the soft golden beach, Long Chao smiled at the three people and said goodbye.

There are no extra words, and I don’t want to say anything.

He was ready to activate his ability and teleport directly back to the Dark Continent.

Several flying species from the Dark Continent will die here and turn into dry bones as the souls they host dissipate.

Anthony's eyes were red.

Men Qi hesitated to speak.

They all knew... this might very well be the last time they would see Long in this life.

Time and vitality seem very cheap on that land.

During these years of exploration, they only traveled a little distance on the map. When they returned to the human world, their lifespan might be only over a hundred years, the same as Netero. Perhaps, at that time, the captain had not yet explored the entire Dark Continent... Like Dong Fulishi, he disappeared for hundreds of years, not to mention returning to the island in the lake.

Moreover, there are external 'evolutionary' factors and so on.

All three of them firmly believed that Long would succeed, but they did not believe that they would be able to live to see the day when they would meet the captain again.

"team leader."

And Gabwich, who had been silent all the time, actually spoke at this moment.

he shouted.

Hand two things to Long.

A pack of cigarettes and a diary.

"I think these two things... will be very helpful to you. You will need them." The current Gabwich no longer had the youthful and naive feeling of a big boy. Like Fant, he grew a beard and no longer stuttered when he spoke.

"Thank you."

Long slightly turned sideways and reached out to take it.

Then, the body soared into the sky accompanied by a rainbow light that broke through the air.

Disappeared into the horizon.

"..."

There was a moment of silence.

Then, Anthony lay on the beach, looking at the beautiful blue sea, and sneered, "It's over... It ended so suddenly. Our journey ends here."

After going to the Dark Continent and looking at the environment close to the human world, it is really beautiful and pleasing to the eyes, but he feels more calm, with a sense of relief and a little bit of unwillingness.

"The scars on the captain's face and the injuries on his body have never healed on their own... He clearly could have."

Gabwich said in a deep voice.

"He has noticed..."

Men Qi looked up at the direction where Long disappeared and said lightly.

Hearing this, Gabwich and Anthony were speechless.

Yeah… evolution.

Although the captain controls that kind of soul power, it is not achieved through external "combination" but through his own evolution...but, is he still a so-called "human"?

At least, not 'human' in the conventional sense.

In this way, in the human world...even if Oboro retains his human appearance, rationality and thinking, he will become a 'disaster'.

Not to mention being rejected by the human world.

Perhaps one of his thoughts or an emotional ups and downs could destroy the entire human world.

Maybe starting from a certain opportunity... For the captain, his home... has become the Dark Continent.

"Let's go, go back."

Anthony clapped his hands and shouted in forced excitement.

"Although this place is not as colorful as the Dark Continent, at least we can sleep well in the future and no longer have to worry about dying at any time... What a peaceful world, and the scenery is also pretty good." He looked around and smiled.

"When I return, I will take over the Hunter Association." Men Qi suddenly said.

She was not imitating Netero, but wanted to fulfill Oboro's will and block the hunters' curiosity about the Dark Continent.

"Then I'll go to the Firth family and become a gangster."

Anthony twisted his neck.

Although this may seem a bit disdainful of the human world, it is true. With the current means of him and Men Qi, there are very few people in the human world who can stop their individual strength. Even in the field of Nen users, they are already at the top.

"I will do nothing. I will go to Rita's hometown and settle there."
