Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 234 Actually Towards Him

Kuroro managed to thwart the deception.

However, the impact of the flying star still forced Kuroro back a distance.

The headless corpses, in order to build a human ladder, were mostly tangled up in a mess.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Moro leaped down from the top of the human ladder and headed straight for the outer perimeter.

The area had relatively few headless corpses, allowing him to use his abilities without restraint.

"Starlight Convergence"

Moro's Nen energy shattered into starlight, enveloping the dozens of headless corpses nearby.

As soon as he released the starlight, he saw the towering human ladder merging into a hand shaped like a giant fan at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Because the hand is made of a human body, various deformed limbs can still be seen on the surface and even at the edges.

It slammed down towards where Morrow was.

In an instant, the shadow cast by the deformed giant hand completely enveloped Moro's body.

But Morro showed no intention of stopping the condensation of starlight.

He wasn't sure if he'd ever have another chance like this...

Therefore, he must seize the opportunity.

As the shadows loomed over, the headless corpses around them, following the command to destroy, fearlessly lunged at Morrow from above, despite the grotesque giant hand pressing down upon them.

this moment,
Moro's gaze was incredibly focused.

He dodged a lunge from the nearest headless corpse just before the deformed giant hand was about to strike him.

Because the headless corpse was not very strong, Moro only needed to dodge once to meet the requirements for the Starburst Condensation ability.

The drifting starlight attached itself directly to the headless corpse, materializing into a golden chain that firmly bound the headless corpse.

The moment Moro saw the golden chains, he didn't hesitate to cut off the amount of energy he was expending when using the Starlight Condensation ability once again.

It wasn't that he didn't care about the consumption of energy, but when the deformed giant hand was about to strike, even a 0.1-second difference in time could affect the course of the battle and even the extremely important rhythm.

The ability to directly sever the condensation of starlight not only buys crucial time but also significantly reduces the danger level for Morrow in this situation.

After sacrificing a small portion of his manifested energy, Moro rapidly channeled his Nen energy, covering his entire body.

He completely ignored the headless corpses rushing towards him from all sides, squatted down, and pressed his palms into the cement ground.

"Flying Star Leap"

A cross-shaped star suddenly appeared on the ground in front of Moro.

Immediately afterwards, a shooting star shot out from the center point, piercing a large gash through the deformed giant hand that was pressing down with shadows.

The deformed giant hand paused briefly in low air after being attacked, then pressed down on the ground again.

But Moro had already taken a step forward, and then leaped through the gap in the deformed giant hand, arriving in the air.

Boom!

The deformed giant hand, pierced through by a hole, slammed down heavily, instantly cracking the ground.

Amidst a deafening roar, a violent shockwave carrying debris from the concrete floor exploded outwards.

Moro was in mid-air, a faint fluorescent green light emanating from his palm, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

The headless corpse that was just marked with a star is probably already turned into mincemeat under the giant hand.

This means that the star may have been transferred to Amanda or Kubi.

So now, all he needs to do is throw out a deception star and try to restrain Kuroro, and he can take advantage of the situation to kill another member of the Phantom Troupe.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Moro keenly sensed a murderous intent.

He abruptly withdrew the nascent deceptive flying star and instead focused his manifested energy on defense.

Just then, a lithe figure appeared from the air.

But it was Machi who came to provide support.

She flew through the air to Morrow's side and delivered a fierce whip kick to Morrow's ribs.

Moro realized what was happening and braced himself with his arm at his side.

The manifested energy flowing on the body surface also quickly flowed to the arms, forming a solid mental defense.

Bang!
Machi's ferocious whip kick struck Moro's arm.

Moro, who was on the defensive, was swept away by the force, like a flying javelin, falling diagonally downwards.

at the same time.

The deformed giant hand, lying on the ground like a fan, suddenly split apart, turning into headless corpses that then surged towards Moro's landing point like a tide.

As he fell to the ground, Moro glanced down, but had no time to pay attention to the horde of corpses below. His gaze shifted to his arm.

His left hand quickly condensed into sharp, stalactite-like spiritual energy, and he swiftly and decisively slashed at his right arm with a palm strike.

laugh!
A thin, long thread wrapped around his right arm snapped instantly.

That was the Nen thread that Machi had secretly wrapped around his arm with when he attacked with a whip kick, using "concealment" to erase the trace.

But Moro was no novice; the moment he was swept away, he had already locked onto the existence of that Nen line with "Condensation".

Because at that point in time, the focus had shifted away from offense and defense, and there was no pressure from the mental energy manipulation inherent in offense and defense, so "condense" could be used to confirm the situation without any pressure.

After severing the mental threads, Moro landed directly on the ground.

Bang.

The impact of each foot striking the ground shattered the concrete.

Just as Moro regained his footing, two headless corpses leaped into the air and pounced on him.

Sizzle, sizzle!
Moro drew his crimson bird-shaped dagger and easily cleaved the two headless corpses in two.

However, before the body hit the ground, more headless corpses pounced from all sides.

Moro frowned slightly, inexplicably thinking of the duel between Hisoka and Chrollo in the original work... At that time, Hisoka, although he had formidable physical strength, was also overwhelmed by the sheer number of people he faced.

Now, Moro can somewhat understand how Hisoka felt back then.

Faced with this overwhelming force, they also have to be constantly on guard against Kuroro's underhanded tactics, and now there's even Machi to contend with.

The pressure on defense will undoubtedly accelerate the depletion of potential energy.

Perhaps we should feel fortunate—

Kuroro hasn't yet upgraded Thief Mastery to include the ability to add "bookmarks".

Otherwise, if Kuroro could free his hands when using his abilities, then his Pair Destroyer ability, which can turn headless corpses into human bombs, would completely eliminate even the slightest chance.

"Our energy is being depleted too quickly, but in this situation, a single mistake means certain death. There's no energy left to control the rhythm..."

Moro showed no intention of controlling his energy expenditure. He swung the Crimson Jade Bird Blade and cleaved several headless corpses that pounced at him in two.

Almost without giving him a chance to breathe, Kuroro appeared behind him at some point, holding a poisoned dagger in his hand.

Chrollo, his eyes flashing with coldness, spotted the slight opening Moro had made in his attempt to kill the headless corpse. His poisoned dagger flashed with a sharp edge, aimed directly at Moro's left neck.

Although Moro couldn't use the "Starlight Condensation" ability, the battles he had fought along the way had given him a wealth of combat experience and what could be considered superb counterattack skills.

Most importantly, he possessed a keen sensitivity to killing intent.

Faced with Kuroro's vicious and venomous attack, Moro's eyes changed slightly. He tossed the Crimson Bird Blade from his right hand to his left, and then positioned it horizontally along the trajectory of the dagger.

Clang!
The dagger and the red jade bird knife collided in mid-air, sparks flying everywhere.

Moro was caught off guard and felt a powerful force emanating from the Crimson Jade Bird Blade.

next moment,
The Red Jade Bird Knife flew backwards after slipping from his hand.

A thought flashed through Moro's mind: he was surprised by Chrollo's power, and then he thought of this guy, after all, he could fight Silva head-on...

Despite losing the Red Jade Bird Knife, Moro remained remarkably calm.

He gave Kuroro no chance to pursue, and after switching swords between his left and right hands, his free right hand had already drawn the sheath of the Blade of the Abyss.

He aimed the sheath at Kuroro, and a wave of energy shot out, striking Kuroro's abdomen.

Kuroro was immediately blasted away by the energy wave.

Moro then stomped his foot and leaped backward using the Gazelle Step, while raising the Abyss Sheath high behind him.

A suction force emanated from the scabbard, forcibly drawing the tumbling, flying red jade bird knife back from a distance.

Clang——!
The blade of the Red Jade Bird Knife was precisely inserted into the scabbard.

Just then, Machi emerged from between several headless corpses and delivered a palm strike aimed at Moro's face.

Moro clenched his left fist and struck Machi's wrist from below.

With a muffled thud, Machi raised her arm, but instead twisted her waist and delivered a spinning kick to Moro's abdomen.

However, Moro managed to gather a ball of energy in his abdomen in time, thus withstanding the damage.

But this kick still sent Moro staggering backward.

Before he could regain his footing, more than a dozen headless corpses pounced on him from behind.

"..."

Moro frowned, waved his hand and fired a flying star, smashing the headless corpses that were rushing towards him from the air.

"Ok?"

Amidst the scattered limbs and broken arms, a glimmer of light flashed.

It is a thought line—

Before Moro could react, the Nen threads connecting the severed limbs were instantly gathered up by Machi behind him.

In an instant,
A dozen or so Nen threads, along with a mass of bloody, severed limbs, wrapped Moro up like a rice dumpling.

"Got you?"

A murderous intent flashed in Machi's cold, beautiful eyes.

At the very back, Kubi and Amanda witnessed this scene, as if they could already see Moro's death.

But the next moment.

A gash was blasted into the severed limbs that were encasing Moro.

But a bright green shooting star flew out from it, heading towards the empty space ahead.

Machi's pupils contracted as she saw the flying star stop, turn back, and then fly straight toward Moro.

"They actually targeted me..."

Boom!

The flying star touched the numerous severed limbs and broken arms encasing Moro, triggering a violent explosion.

In an instant, blood mist and bits of flesh, along with smoke and dust, spread in all directions.

Swish!
Another fluorescent green star shot out from the smoke and dust mixed with blood mist and headed upwards.

The shooting star quickly stopped a hundred meters in the air, then shot towards Kubi and Amanda at the very back like a meteor.

"What!?"

The two men's expressions changed drastically, and they both made evasive maneuvers.

However, when Fei Xing arrived in front of the two, he suddenly veered off course, tracing an unreasonable trajectory, and accurately struck Amanda in the chest.

Amanda was immediately filled with disbelief as her entire chest cavity was blasted into pieces by the flying star, and her mangled body flew backward.

Kubi, who had fled in another direction, felt a lingering fear upon witnessing this scene.

But he didn't realize it...

With Amanda's death, the star silently moved to his face, which was covered by long hair.
