Hunter x Hunter: Pokémon Master, the World's Strongest

Link slowly walked past the three of them, unwilling to even glance at them.

This kind of stuff doesn't even qualify to be his Pokémon experience!

He had to find a way to contact those posters quickly.

If they are not much different from this kind of stuff, there is no need to waste time on them.

Amidst a myriad of thoughts, Link's lips curled up slightly.

He thought of a good idea!

(According to everyone's request, I will write about the protagonist becoming stronger in the Sky Arena. The protagonist also practices in his daily life, but it is not written in the text)

(The next part is a brief description of how the protagonist has become stronger. I will just briefly mention it and will definitely not deliberately increase the word count).

Chapter 2: Machi from the Phantom Troupe! Shark the Shark! (2/, please subscribe)

Shortly after Link left, a girl walked out from a shadowy corner.

The girl had a cold expression on her face, and her eyes seemed to show no interest in anything.

She has a petite body and pink-purple hair, which makes her look quite cute.

Wearing a feminine training robe and a pair of purple stockings, she exudes a capable temperament.

Glancing at the three useless people who were limping away, a solemn look flashed across the girl's azure eyes.

She also felt some of the breath just now, although not the whole time, only for a moment.

But in that instant, she was sure that the man's strength was far beyond hers.

It even far exceeds the strength of the entire brigade!

The girl is one of the members of "Phantom Troupe" - Machi!

This is the feeling brought by her innate sixth sense!

How could such a powerful being appear here?

Machi was a little confused.

After a moment, Machi seemed to have thought of something.

The solemnity in his eyes slowly dissipated, replaced by a fiery enthusiasm.

That's a craze for money!

Link, right?

She can make a fortune from this!

……

The next day, Link came to the entrance of the Sky Arena and accepted an interview specially arranged by the officials.

"Hello everyone, our interviewee today is none other than the newcomer who became so popular yesterday—Mr. Link!"

The pretty reporter stood beside Link, holding a microphone and smiling at the camera beside her.

He was wearing work clothes with a fist logo on them, and even his hat had the logo on it.

Speaking of which, everyone Link saw working in the Sky Arena had this mark on them, so it seemed like they had the same requirement.

"Mr. Link has made a big splash."

"Only the first day in the Sky Arena, I reached Level 0."

"This amazing move completely breaks the record for Sky Arena."

"Not only that, every time Mr. Link fights, he defeats his opponent in an instant. No one knows his true strength!"

"I wonder what Mr. Link's plans are for the next step? Is he just going to reach the 200th floor, collect the prize, and leave?"

"Will you continue to fight and challenge those OPs? This is a question everyone is very concerned about."

Having said that, the reporter handed the microphone to Link, looking forward to what he would say.

Of course, from her point of view, it would be better for Link to choose to continue the challenge, which would make the interview more popular.

Maybe she could get a higher bonus...

At this time, the reporter did not know that Link's words later would not only indicate that he would continue the challenge.

It even brought unprecedented popularity!

"Hello everyone, I'm Link. First of all, let me make my stance clear. I will continue to challenge in the Sky Arena."

Link's lips curled up slightly, a playful smile appearing on his handsome face.

As a result, many women who watched the live broadcast suddenly became fans of Link because of his good looks.

"I'm inviting all the hosts to a duel. Please let me see how powerful you are!"

Just as Link finished speaking, the reporter next to him froze up and couldn't process the words.

He...what did he just say?

"Of course, if you're afraid and don't want to fight me, I can understand that!"

It was not until Link added the last sentence and returned the microphone to the reporter that she realized what had just happened.

This is what Link came up with!

Directly provoke the posters during the live broadcast and force them to fight with you.

As the people with the highest status in the Sky Arena, all the OPs are proud of their status.

At the same time, the reputation of the poster is a tool for them to make money continuously.

Naturally, they can't stand anyone provoking them.

If someone doesn't want to agree to the battle, it will seem to the audience that they are afraid of Link.

You, a well-known OP, are actually afraid of a newcomer who just arrived at the Sky Arena?

Not to mention the plummeting reputation and shrinking income, Link also looks down on the experience of such people.

Of course, Link's invitation battle does not conform to the "application battle system" of the Sky Arena.

In theory, the challenger needs to win ten games before he is qualified to challenge the host.

After defeating the original OP, the challenger can replace him and become the new OP.

Link's behavior is not against the rules even if he wins the OP, and he will not replace the OP's position.

Can……

so what?

Link never challenged these OPs for the OP status that they "regarded as a treasure."

It is the experience points gained after defeating those OPs!

And even if I don’t have the status of a poster, what if I defeat every poster?

What if we defeat the champion of the martial arts competition, the current owner of the 251st floor?

That way, even if you are not recognized as the host in the Sky Arena, people will still say that you are the strongest!

The results speak for themselves!

If he follows the rules of the Sky Arena, Link doesn't know how long he will have to stay here to become the strongest building owner.

With that much time, I would have already obtained a lot of new Pokémon from other places.

At the same time, Link's speech also attracted many people who were watching the live broadcast.

It has to be said that many people come to the Sky Arena to challenge, but there are people like Link who put aside such "lofty ambitions" as soon as they arrive...

Still the first one!

For a moment, people had different opinions about Link.

Some people think Link is just a boastful braggart.

He just arrived at the Sky Arena and dared to challenge those famous hosts.

Some people also think that Link is a man of great skill and courage, and perhaps he has real talent.

After all, judging from the replays of his previous battles, Link’s every move was a one-hit kill!

No one knows what Link's limit is?

……

"Hehehe... Challenging the host?"

In the dim room, Hisoka stared at Link on TV and laughed horror- ly .

Under the dim light of the screen, Hisoka's already weird clown makeup looked even more eerie.

Hisoka also immediately thought of the purpose of Link's actions.

This approach is suitable for those who do not care about the welfare of the OP and just want to enjoy fighting against the strong.

In fact, Hisoka's ability is more than enough to be a poster.

It’s just that “applying for the battle system” is a bit troublesome, which is why I haven’t become the host yet.

In the original work, when Hisoka and Kuroro fought, both of them were the owners of the building.

So far, Hisoka has won all the battles in the Sky Arena, and the few times he lost were because he was not present.

This was a direct defeat.

"That's a great idea..."

Hisoka's narrow eyes curved in a smile, making him look even more seductive and frightening, with a hint of darkness hidden in his golden pupils.

only……

He still couldn't figure it out.

For Link, is it really necessary for him to challenge those OPs?

Hisoka didn't think those OPs could make Link feel the thrill of battle.

Even the highest one, the owner of the 251st floor, is the same!

……

After Link said what he wanted to say, he left. He wanted to try the local food.

Only the reporter, who was brainstorming, was left standing there in a daze.

After some discussion among the top executives of the Sky Arena, they decided to condone Link's actions!

On the one hand, Link's words successfully attracted a lot of attention.

The vast majority of viewers expressed their desire to see a battle between Link and the OP.

These ticket fees will be a considerable amount of money.

On the other hand, Link's invitation battle does not comply with the "application battle system".

In other words, even if he wins, he will not have the status of the host.

This was also clearly answered after they sent someone to ask Link himself.

Link doesn't need the status of a OP, he just wants a fight!

In this way, the official people had no worries at all, and even took the initiative to publicize Link's live broadcast.

This interview was played repeatedly in the Sky Arena and other areas.

After some publicity, Link was no longer seen as a "rude" madman in the eyes of the public.

He became a master who devoted himself to the pursuit of martial arts and was not moved by fame or fortune!

When Link sat in the restaurant, eating special snacks and watching people's interviews about his performance on TV.

I was a little surprised too.

Does this add to the evaluation of "pursuing martial arts, not pursuing fame and fortune"?

Although Link really didn't want fame and fortune.
