Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 247: He reacted to the stimulus himself.

Intelligence about capabilities can sometimes be a double-edged sword.

Moro clearly knew Pakunoda's abilities, so why didn't he stop Pakunoda from raising her gun and firing when Kuroro said the word "information"?
Was it because they didn't realize it immediately, or because they simply didn't have time to react?

Quite the opposite.

Upon hearing the intelligence, Moro immediately deduced, based on the numerous existing information and clues, that Paknotta's memory bullet contained information about his abilities.

The reason he didn't stop Pakunoda was to create the impression among the other members of the Phantom Troupe that he only had the abilities of Starburst Condensation and Deceptive Starfall.

After receiving this intelligence, Kubi was naturally not foolish enough not to guard against Moro's abilities.

But what he was guarding against was Moro's version 1.0 intelligence.

Therefore, the safe distance he considers is completely meaningless.

Having updated his abilities to version 3.0, Moro effortlessly pierced Kubi's lifeline with a single blow.

This is the misleading nature of intelligence regarding abilities, and Moro, who took advantage of this, was, in a sense, terrifyingly stable.

Kubi's body fell to the ground, a truly miserable death.

His abilities are valuable, but they tend to be more supportive.

If given a chance to prepare before the battle, he can continue to cooperate with Amanda.

That enormous puppet army would probably wear down even Kangzai and Hisoka.

Only Moro can use the Star Leap ability, an offensive ability, to break the deadlock.

However, since Moro already knew about Kubi and Amanda's abilities, he naturally wouldn't give them the opportunity to team up.

This is one of the reasons why he launched the raid, which essentially crippled half of Kubi and Amanda's abilities.

After casually killing Kubi, Moro made no further moves, acting like a true bystander observing the tense situation unfolding before him.

However, because he swiftly defeated Kubi, even if he just stood still, he would exert immense, invisible pressure on the entire Phantom Troupe.

simply put--

On the surface, it appears to be a one-on-one battle, but the members of the Phantom Troupe must constantly guard against Moro's instant-kill techniques.

This unavoidable psychological pressure is exactly what Moro wanted the tour group to experience.

"Take a good taste of what 'adversity' is like."

Moro looked calmly at Kuroro and the others.

Before the second death rewind, when he was dealing with the army of headless corpses, his biggest source of pressure was Kuroro, who was lurking nearby, waiting for his chance.

Now the situation has reversed, and Kuroro and his ilk are feeling the pressure in the battle.

Hisoka is extremely perceptive, so he was naturally able to notice Chrollo's subtle psychological changes.

Although he knew this change stemmed from Morrow's actions, he was no longer fixated on pure one-on-one combat.

Kuroro's dismissive attitude towards him had finally angered him.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!
Seeing that Chrollo was still keeping his guard up against Moro, Hisoka raised his hand and shot three playing cards at Chrollo.

Immediately,

He followed the playing cards and pressed down on Kuroro without any apparent pressure.

Because the "Mirror Man" modeled after Kuroro hasn't disappeared yet...

This also means that Kuroro has not yet sheathed his abilities, so he naturally cannot use any new, unknown abilities.

Based on this, Hisoka easily gained the opportunity to close in and suppress the opponent.

Kuroro dodged the three playing cards that were shot at him.

He had barely regained his footing when Hisoka was already in front of him.

next moment.

Hisoka held the playing cards between his fingers like sharp blades, slicing them into several sharp arcs towards Chrollo.

With a gloomy look in his eyes, Chrollo dodged Hisoka's rapid attacks with agile movements.

However, he did lose the initiative and failed to make sufficient preparations. He also had to constantly guard against Moro's sudden attack.

This put him at a disadvantage for a time.

Moro watched the clash between Hisoka and Chrollo from the sidelines.

The Hisoka he knew would definitely try to use "concealment" to set up all sorts of dirty tricks once he got a chance to close in and suppress the enemy.

However, Hisoka didn't bother with such tricks at all. Instead, he poured all his manifested energy into a wide-ranging, rapid attack.

"Looks like he's angry."

Moro thought about Kuroro's behavior just now. For Hisoka, who only wanted to have a passionate love-hate relationship with Kuroro, wasn't it also a kind of neglected hurt?

So much so that Hisoka unusually prioritized "venting his anger" during the fight.

However, Kuroro's "defense" is very strong. If Hisoka doesn't take advantage of this opportunity to use dirty tricks, as time goes by and Kuroro recovers, it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity again.

"Although I've given you a chance to fight Kuroro, I can't let you have my head."

Moro watched Hisoka launch his attack with unbridled abandon and muttered to himself.

His next blitzkrieg was prepared for Kuroro.

It's unclear whether Hisoka can suppress Chrollo, who hasn't prepared any trump cards beforehand.

Forget it, none of this matters.

The important thing is that he needs to put pressure on Kuroro little by little, and then push Kuroro into a desperate situation step by step.

Upon reading this, Moro suddenly unleashed an astonishing aura of killing intent.

While dealing with Hisoka's fierce attacks, Chrollo couldn't help but glance to the side at Moro's situation.

His momentary distraction gave Hisoka an opportunity to succeed.

Bang!
Hisoka punched Chrollo in the left cheek.

The fierce force transmitted through the fist instantly deformed Kuroro's face, and he flew out like a cannonball.

Moreover, when Hisoka hit Chrollo's cheek, he casually stuck "Bungee Gum" on it.

At this point, he could have used his ability to pull Kuroro back directly and then launched a follow-up attack.

However, he did not do that; he even voluntarily withdrew his ability.

Hisoka withdrew his elastic love and turned his head to silently look at Moro, who had just "intervened" in the battle.

Moro looked innocent and spread his hands, saying, "I didn't do anything; he just reacted out of spite."

As she spoke, she changed her gesture, pointing with her index finger at Kuroro, whose cheek was already red and swollen not far away, and said meaningfully, "Don't say I didn't warn you, you're going to suffer for giving him a chance to 'flip the book' so generously."

"..."

A hint of regret flashed in Hisoka's eyes.

Before the fight even started, Kuroro looked down on him...

But that's okay, he can always get his revenge through fighting.

But now,
He realized that as long as Moro was watching from the sidelines, Kuroro wouldn't be able to fight him with all his might.

Hisoka suddenly felt a bit bored.

On the other hand, Kuroro, whose face was swollen from a punch, only felt a sense of crisis that was slowly deepening.

He is a spider.

But it seems to be trapped in a spider web, unable to move an inch.

Reason told Kuroro that the opponent had clearly come prepared, and the right thing to do in the face of this adversity was to find a way to escape.

but……

That also means he has to abandon his companions.
