Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 215 Kuroro's Actions
If we can master the attack method of space travel, then our tactical application will no longer be limited by the activation conditions of starlight condensation.

At the same time, having an additional attack method can effectively disrupt the opponent's judgment of their capabilities.

Having determined the direction of the capability, Moro's next consideration was the difficulty of development.

In theory, the rarer the ability and the more complex the mechanism, the longer the development cycle required.

And there is also the worst possible outcome.

That is, after investing a lot of time and energy, the development of skills has made little progress.

Therefore, the mechanism of Love Practice that allows users to develop Nen abilities in a short period of time is almost like cheating.

This time, Moro will no longer be able to enjoy the convenience brought by "upgraded abilities," so he must be prepared to bear the "sunk costs" before investing time and energy.

of course.

If you want to get feedback or results in a shorter time, you can also consider reducing the intensity and complexity of the capabilities.

"Let's focus on the ability of 'high-speed movement' first. If it's difficult to master abilities involving 'spatial properties,' then we can take a step back and develop purely physical movement abilities."

Moro's eyes gleamed.

If conditions allowed, he would certainly prefer a spatial migration ability with a higher ceiling.

But this ability isn't something he can necessarily obtain just because he wants it.

Unless he is willing to add harsh constraints to the ability system.

But now there is no time pressure, and the abilities of deception, flying stars, and starlight condensation all involve oaths and constraints...

Therefore, he prefers to develop this capability slowly and with difficulty rather than bear one or even more constraints.

Ultimately, it comes down to a matter of making choices.

Moro is currently in a relatively free situation, so his perspective and approach to problems are naturally different.

"If we can successfully develop spatial migration abilities, then we can take the opportunity to develop spatial offensive abilities. If we are unable to develop subsequent offensive abilities due to limitations in Nen capacity, then we should lower the standards."

Moro's vision of future capabilities allowed his thinking to expand and extend continuously.

Images of abilities from the original work kept flashing through his mind.

The final result is two different images.

One example is the spiral black hole that appears on the ground when Leorio and Ging use their abilities.

Another example is the scene during the Greed Island boxing match where an NPC with special abilities teleports their fist a distance in mid-air.

The difference between the two—

That is, the former is a jump in energy, and the latter is a jump in physical matter.

In essence, it is definitely more difficult to jump over physical objects.

That's why the NPC with the ability on Greed Island needed to place the character "God" on the arena to assist in the release of his ability.

Moro's primary attack method is using flying stars, so he should be inclined to use the less difficult jump energy.

However, when spatial abilities are displayed, it seems that they must first reveal a phenomenon like a "spiral black hole" to attract the enemy's attention before they can be used to attack or demonstrate their abilities.

This "phenomenon" reduces the unpredictability of jump energy to some extent.

Against weaker enemies, it might be possible to guarantee a 100% hit rate.

However, when facing a stronger enemy, this spatial manifestation ability will only give the enemy some room to react.

"Given my capabilities, I definitely need to focus on jump energy. However, when building the capability framework, I must not leave any flaws that could affect the essence of the capability, otherwise the development would be meaningless."

"Um……"

"Is it a bit too much of me to be thinking this far ahead before it has even officially started?"

Moro shook his head slightly.

He has always adhered to the principle of not rushing things, so he quickly put away his diverging thoughts.

We only have a preliminary direction right now...

The next step is to take each step steadily, like stacking building blocks, carefully and steadily placing each block on top, so as to ensure the stability of the base.

"Once the ferry docks, let's find a place to test the scabbard's maximum capabilities. Oh, and..."

Moro's mind raced, and suddenly something came to mind.

He looked at Kurapika, who was examining the scabbard, and asked, "Kurapika, should I give this scabbard a name?"

"Whether you take it or not is up to you."

Kurapika looked up at Moro.

Nen users usually give their abilities a name, so it's not unreasonable for objects with unusual abilities, like scabbards, to also be given a name.

Moro smiled and said, "Then you can give me your opinion."

"it is good."

Kurapika responded softly.

Moro walked over, took the scabbard, and held it in his hand.

Perhaps because my thoughts had been wandering earlier, several options suddenly popped into my head when I was thinking of a name for the scabbard.

"A sheath that holds all things, a sheath that holds all things, a coffin that holds all things together, a sheath that imprisons forever... Which name do you think is better?"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Kurapika.

Kurapika thought for a moment and quickly gave his answer: "The Sheath of the Deep."

There's no particular reason for choosing this one.

He felt that since Moro had mentioned this as the first name, he subconsciously preferred the choice of the Abyss Sheath.

Moreover, judging from the meaning of the name, it does seem to match the abilities possessed by the scabbard...

"Alright, then let's use the Abyss Sheath."

Moro made the decision immediately. In his opinion, as long as it had a name, nothing else mattered.

----------

6 month 12 number.

Morrow and his group returned to the Sky Arena.

Before a concrete action plan is in place, the Sky Arena is a very suitable place for cultivation.

After returning, Moro instructed Kurapika to register for the 200th floor competition.

Although the strength of the contestants on the 200th floor of the Heaven's Arena varies greatly, it is still a place to accumulate practical experience without using "Nen".

Kurapika has always readily agreed to Moro's arrangements.

He registered for the match on the morning he returned to Sky Arena.

It's possible that because he hadn't registered for the 200th floor competition before, after accumulating a series of defeats, he only registered in the morning and was given a competition in the afternoon.

Instead of watching Kurapika's match, Moro went alone to the top of the Sky Arena tower.

A strong wind blew in, and as far as the eye could see, there was a thin sea of ​​clouds.

Facing the fierce wind, Moro began testing the upper limit of the Abyss Sheath's abilities.

Instead of directly injecting his energy into the Abyss Sheath as before, he mobilized his manifested energy and released a deceptive flying star forward.

A shooting star streaks across the sky, then turns back in the distance.

Moro swiftly raised the sheath of the Abyss, precisely absorbing the flying star, then held the sheath open to reflect the absorbed power of the flying star back out.

He used this method repeatedly to gradually increase the power of the flying star.

从10%到12%，随后往上增加，15%、18%、21%……

With each return, the power of the flying star increases.

When Moro released a flying star with 50% of his manifested power, the Abyss Sheath finally showed signs of strain, trembling slightly as if it were reaching some kind of limit. Moro gripped the Abyss Sheath tightly, holding the scabbard, which had absorbed all the power of the flying star, forward, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon.

next moment--

"boom!"

A surge of energy burst forth from the sheath, tearing through the air and shooting into the distance!

"This is so much fun."

Moro watched the receding energy wave, a smile playing on his lips.

The deceptive flying star, formed by condensing 50% of the manifested energy, combined with the damage multiplier mechanism after returning, is already quite devastating.

The Abyss Sheath can not only absorb this level of energy, but also reflect it stably, making it sufficient for actual combat.

Previously, when using the Deceptive Star attack, Moro relied on the ring tattoo on the back of his hand to deflect the Stars.

Now, with the Abyss Sheath, the rebound function of the back of the hand can be completely replaced, making the fighting style more flexible.

The only drawback is that the absorption and reflection speed is too fast...

If a delay time could be set like the Deception Star, the tactical value would definitely be elevated to another level.

"With this level of strength, Franklin can be used to test the practical value of the Deeper Sheath."

Moro muttered to himself and casually inserted the Crimson Jade Bird Blade into the sheath of the Abyss.

To him, the Deep Sheath was like a novel toy.

But only by putting it into actual combat can the playability of this toy be fully unleashed.

This is why Moreau conceived the idea of ​​harming Franklin—

There was no particular reason, simply because Franklin was an Emission-type Devil Fruit user, making him the perfect whetstone to test the Deeper Sheath.

However, even with such thoughts, Moro would not act rashly.

"Before we take action, we need to find Hisoka to scout out the Phantom Troupe's movements..."

Intelligence is always key.

We must at least rule out the possibility of a "trap," otherwise, it wouldn't be fun to capsize in the gutter.

------------

An underground boxing ring somewhere in the world.

A square arena, encased in spiked railings, stood silently, resembling a giant steel birdcage.

Dim lighting enveloped the surrounding stands, through which the packed audience could be vaguely seen—

They wore uniform masks, revealing only pairs of fanatical yet cold eyes.

At this moment, two shirtless, muscular men are fighting fiercely on the ring.

They were covered in blood, sweat and blood mingling as they dripped from their wounded bodies.

Bang!Bang!
The muffled thuds of fists and feet colliding with flesh echoed in the air above the ring, but were instantly swallowed up by the hysterical shouts of the audience.

"Ring ring, ring ring—"

Amidst the hysterical screams, a series of cell phone dialing notifications went unnoticed by everyone.

The source of the sound was an old-fashioned flip phone with an arrow piercing a red heart engraved on the back.

The man holding it was a handsome man with short black hair and a white bandage wrapped around his forehead.

Besides the flip phone, the man was holding a red and black book with a handprint pattern in his other hand.

That book was the ultimate guide for thieves.

And the man is naturally Kuroro.
"The owner of the number you dialed is not nearby. Please try again later, or dial from a different location..."

A cold sound came from the flip phone.

pat.

Kuroro slammed his flip phone shut, his indifferent gaze sweeping over the frenzied crowd around him. He then quietly rose from his seat and walked out of the arena along the dark passageway.

At the exit of the underground boxing ring, two burly guards in black suits stood guard.

When they saw Kuroro walk out alone, they exchanged glances, a hint of surprise flashing in each other's eyes.

This was not only because someone left before the game was over, but also because the man in front of them was not wearing a mask and was holding an old-fashioned flip phone in one hand and a slightly thick book in the other.

This was the first time they had ever encountered such an unconventional guest.

Ignoring the guards' probing gazes, Kuroro walked through the corridor, climbed the stairs, and arrived at the entrance to the casino on a higher floor.

The guards at the casino entrance merely glanced at the guest badge on his chest before pushing open the gilded doors and letting Kuroro in.

The moment Kuroro stepped through the gate into the casino, a strong concentration of oxygen mixed with the scents of perfume and tobacco hit him.

He glanced around the casino expressionlessly.

The gamblers, their faces flushed, were indulging in the thrill of betting big, while the dealers maintained their professionally programmed smiles.

Kuroro walked silently deeper into the casino, his slender fingers flipping open his phone again and pressing the redial button.

"Ring ring, ring ring—"

The phone emitted a monotonous dial tone, which rang for a while before suddenly switching to a cold, mechanical female voice:

"The owner of the number you dialed has been located, right in front of you within the range of the thought wave."

Kuroro's gaze followed the prompt to a card table directly in front of him.

There was only one male gambler sitting there, thin as a monkey, with a pair of small round sunglasses on his face.

After confirming the target, Kuroro deactivated his ability.

The Thief's Secret and the flip phone in his hand instantly turned into wisps of spiritual energy and dissipated into the air.

"Love Dial"

This was a power he had taken from a woman.

As the name suggests, the essence of this ability is to find a desired partner by dialing a number on a mobile phone.

Its ability effect is:
1. Users can pre-set various conditions and requirements for their "ideal object".

2. Release the detection thought wave through dialing.

3. The thought wave will scan the surroundings like radar, looking for objects that meet the criteria.

Given this mechanism—

If the conditions set are too stringent, it may lead to a situation where it's like finding a needle in a haystack.

After all, it's like making demands like high dowry, young and handsome, high annual income, owning a house and a car, and voluntarily handing over one's salary in a crowded matchmaking market...

In this situation, it is very likely that a suitable candidate will never be found.

But the charm of Nen lies in its versatility; it is not confined to a single form.

The original user of the love dialer will use this ability to find a romantic partner who meets her requirements.

However, in Kuroro's hands, by setting search criteria such as "the other party possesses specific abilities or special skills," two effects can be achieved.

1. Search for the Nen ability you want.

2. Identify and recruit exceptional talent.

An ability originally used to find a romantic partner can greatly increase the potential of Chrollo's "Thief's Secrets".

can only say--

This is the bizarre and wonderful power of Nen.
