When dirt and diamonds are used together, the resulting damage and defense are worlds apart...
Unfortunately... as Bisky said, this kind of insight requires experience. Although Oboro gained some insights, they were not many... because, overall, at least so far, none of the Nen users he has encountered have posed any fatal threat to him.
The power of the mind is obviously easier to break through in desperate or extremely difficult situations... Otherwise, it can only be accumulated and familiarized little by little.
So... he was really looking forward to seeing a truly impressive expert appear by Brown's side!
After all, he was going to replace the other person.
He knew nothing about Brown's armed forces. The only thing he was certain of was that the Nen user responsible for protecting the Ten Elders and doing his bidding must have a long track record of victories, several times, or even ten times, more than what he had done in the past few months.
Even though she knew perfectly well what would happen when she went to see the Ten Elders, Oboro was actually a little happy...
"Don't let me down..."
Lonely's tone conveyed a strong sense of anticipation.
41. The hidden beast!
"Mr. Oboro, please come with me!"
After a while, we finally arrived at our destination.
One of the subordinates had been waiting for a long time.
Oboro noticed that, besides him, there seemed to be other gang leaders' vehicles parked there as well.
"It's really different..."
He nodded and followed the other person.
Just now, when the car started climbing the mountain road, he saw this palace standing on the mountainside. It was a palace that covered the entire mountainside, not just one! He heard that even this area of several square kilometers of mountain land was the property of the Ten Elders. It was a private forbidden area, with patrols everywhere and strict security.
It wasn't noticeable from below the mountain, but once you got closer, you could see that even the walls surrounding the palace were extremely tall and majestic.
Although Oboro had never been to Kukuroku Mountain, it felt... somewhat like the Zoldyck family, only more magnificent and opulent.
Before entering, he underwent a security check by designated personnel to ensure he was not carrying any dangerous weapons and were given instructions on what to follow.
Then he was led to the building where the meeting was being held.
With his hands in his pockets, Long strolled along the wide, diamond-encrusted pavement, a slight smile playing on his lips… He sensed that someone was scrutinizing him!
……
"This Oboro is a Nen user."
"The fact that he single-handedly took down the key security personnel for both the River and Chib families speaks volumes!"
"I dug deep into his background. He fought in the Sky Arena and was a Master-level martial artist... The hype has died down, but some people still remember him. As for his relationship with the Phils family, it's currently uncertain. After all, just a few months ago, the Phils family was only a mid-level power, rarely even mentioned..."
“The Phils family still has one direct bloodline, a woman named Phils Lily, the daughter of Phils Maibo… Judging from the attitude of the butler David and Lily, his identity should be fine.”
A group of people were gathered in a room on a high floor.
There were nearly thirty people.
Everyone's gaze passed through the window, focusing on the black dot that was gradually approaching with the servant.
“I’ve watched his videos, and considering his recent record… this guy is dangerous! In a one-on-one fight, none of us here could beat him; our chances of winning are slim! Of course, Sato is an exception.” A man with his arms crossed and his head in his hands stared at the tiny figure outside the window, his expression grave. He then looked at the ninja standing next to the Ten Elders. “You should be alright, right?”
The masked ninja in black remained silent, his gaze cold.
It seems to be the default.
"His ability is materialization, which is extremely complex. Once you engage in combat, it's very difficult to figure out how he uses it and his patterns in a short time... He's a true master!" the man concluded.
Besides dozens of Nen users, Brown was also in the room.
However, he didn't interrupt, but just sat in his chair smoking a cigar, letting others discuss Oboro.
"Hey, hey, hey... Achuwa, what do you mean... are you scared?"
Some people made sarcastic remarks.
"Come on! Even if he's strong on his own, we still have all these people... Even if it costs us a few lives, taking him down will be easy..." The man rolled his eyes.
"If a fight really breaks out, the weaker one will die first... um..."
This is very much in line with the style of Meteor City.
Another man with messy hair grinned.
"This opportunity is yours."
A woman chuckled softly.
"He's found you!"
At that moment, the ninja standing next to Brown suddenly said something.
“Oh? How perceptive… What a terrifying fellow… Is he one of our own…” Achuwa exclaimed in amazement.
Suddenly, Brown tapped his cigar on the table, making a noise. Everyone immediately looked at their boss and fell silent.
"Don't get too excited, at least for now... he's still one of us."
The ten old men said calmly.
After saying that, he got up and walked towards the door.
He was going to meet the guests who had been summoned today…
"This Sato seems to have been following the Ten Elders for a long time..."
"He's a ninja trained by the secretive group, the Cloud Village... Unlike us amateurs, he's a professional! He started training from a young age. I heard that the other nine also have strong ninjas like Sato by their side... The Ten Elders have the ability to hold the top position in the gang without any problems!"
"Can't you guys have a little bit of professionalism... We were 'sold' to the gang, and now we're gangsters too. Is it really okay for you to talk about the boss behind his back? What if the elders find out..."
"Can we please not use the word 'sell'? It should be 'transaction,' a transaction!"
"Is there a difference?"
"Have!"
Shortly after Brown and his companion left, the group began to discuss the matter.
"Anyone want to have some fun and test the waters of this obscure place...?"
"Be honest. The other party is a big shot in the underworld... He might even be a partner of Meteor City in the future. Don't cause trouble."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing... I don't want to go back to Meteor City. Life is so much better now..."
The boy wearing a baseball cap waved to everyone and walked out.
"That kid Green..."
"It's okay, you know him well..."
Not all the people in the house are from Meteor City, but more than half of them are.
……
Meanwhile, Oboro was following the 'guide' and preparing to enter a white building that rose from the ground among a cluster of palaces.
However, you still have to walk through a long corridor.
A few dozen meters away, Long noticed a boy in a baseball cap appearing and moving around the field casually... He seemed to have some status, standing out from the men in suits every few steps around him, their styles completely different.
No one stopped him.
The boy leaned against the wall of the corridor, his eyes brazenly scrutinizing him...
His hazy gaze also took on a slightly playful look.
The guide nodded slightly to the boy, as if greeting him, but said nothing.
The distance between Oboro and the boy narrowed.
At that moment, the boy left the wall he was leaning against and walked past Oboro.
In the instant the two figures passed each other, the boy's eyes narrowed slightly under the brim of his hat, and a burst of 'qi' appeared, but there was no killing intent... Killing intent represents provocation, and he knew his limits and did not want to be misunderstood.
He was just 'playing a game'.
Furthermore, Green was well aware of the situation within the gang... because of the Ten Elders' identity, even if they harbored resentment, they wouldn't show it.
Even if Brown knew, he probably wouldn't care.
However, he had just released his spiritual energy to create mental pressure when the next...
Seconds later, a chill suddenly ran through his body, his vision blurred, and his brain felt like it was being pricked with needles. He couldn't stand steadily for a moment, and in a daze, he staggered and bent over, causing his hat to fall off his head.
However, before the hat even hit the ground, it was caught by a large hand.
Long patted the pale-faced boy's shoulder and gently comforted him, as tenderly as a big brother next door, "Your hat fell off... Walk more carefully, don't be too naughty, you'll get hurt if you fall."
The suffocating feeling came and went quickly. When Green came to his senses, his face was flushed.
He swallowed hard and stiffly took the hat from Oboro's hand.
Long patted him on the shoulder twice more, then walked away with the guide.
The entire exchange between the two lasted only a moment, and the 'guide,' being an ordinary person, was completely unaware of it.
Long sensed the gaze fixed on him from behind and muttered to himself, "His thoughts..."
This boy's thoughts are quite interesting...
……
A few minutes later, Oboro was led into a conference room.
As soon as I walked in, I found that they were all familiar faces... They were the 'big shots' I had seen at the charity gala before, including the old man Badim.
"Oboro, you've come!"
In stark contrast to their previous attitude towards Oboro, all seven of them immediately came to greet him upon his appearance.
Although the hierarchy and order of gangs are clear, everything is based on strength.
The current Fils family can be said to be no less powerful than any of them individually, and may even be stronger.
Naturally, they no longer emphasize seniority or anything like that...
this is the truth.
