Sean knew very well that in the original story, Netero accompanied Jag to explore the Dark Continent, but fate played a cruel trick on them. One returned as a highly respected association president, while the other brought disaster to his family and died tragically at home.
Now that Kurt has grown up, and considering the timeline, it's not far from Jag's death; it's time to unleash the "Reanimation Jutsu." Sean listened intently.
"Humans!" Netero seemed to have no intention of hiding anything, and exclaimed in a startling statement, "I saw 'humans' on the Dark Continent!"
"The person who severely injured both me and Jag in a single blow!"
A person? A single blow?! Sean opened his mouth slightly, his heart pounding, and fell into a long silence.
As far as he knew, neither Xiao Jie's ancestors, such as Dong Fuli Shi, who set foot on the Dark Continent three hundred years ago and left behind a masterpiece book, "Travels in the New Continent," nor the magical beasts guarding the gates of the Dark Continent, had ever heard of the word "human" on the Dark Continent!
What's mentioned more often are the countless dangerous monsters and the disasters whose mere names send chills down your spine—
For example, the "human-breeding beast" Pap. For example, the twin-tailed snake hell bell. For example, the undead disease Zoba'ai. For example, the plant weapon gold and silver ingots. For example, the gas life form - E.
So, what the hell are these "humans"? If what Netero said is true, how could the person who injured him, or rather, the group of people, survive on the Dark Continent, where monsters roam and disasters rage? With their strength and intelligence, couldn't they have discovered that a human world exists in Lake Möbius?
Or perhaps it's more accurate to say that all of humanity, whether it's V5, the Republic of Padokia, or even the Kakin Empire, are nothing more than domesticated "pigs" on the Dark Continent?
In that instant, thoughts grew wildly in Sean's mind like weeds.
A chill ran down the young man's spine, and he couldn't help but shiver. He met Netero's clear, black-and-white eyes, and saw this survivor, known to have explored the Dark Continent and returned alive, say softly, "Perhaps I misspoke."
"That's not a human, it's a 'god'!"
The time of Jag's death is not specified in the comics.
The pig speculates that Alluka died around the time of her birth because of Nanika.
Now that Nanika has been taken away by Sean, Jag has survived to this day.
Please be aware of this, dear readers.
Chapter 131 Entanglement X Promise X Departure
There's always a way out. "Grandpa, it's no use telling me this now."
Sean looked directly into Netero's eyes, chuckled, and said, "Since there truly are gods in this world, I think the divine realm wouldn't mind having one more like me, Sean!"
The young man has lofty ambitions, unlike the Yellow River that flows eternally. There is no Yellow River here, but there is Lake Möbius, which is much longer and much wider than the Yellow River!
Shedding his lethargy, a faint aura emanated from Sean's body. It was Conqueror's Haki responding to Sean's call to action, leaping out and radiating outwards.
"Oh, Rivamon D. Luffy, the man who aspires to become the Pirate King!" Netero sensed this spirit and suddenly thought of Luffy, the rubber boy from Sean's novels, who was determined to pursue his dream. It seemed a bit comical, but for some reason, Netero felt that he could succeed!
Because compared to seeing Sean knock out all the ape-faced people with one blow on TV.
Now, experiencing it firsthand, the guild leader narrowed his eyes and noticed something amiss. Sean's aura had acquired a "magnificent kingly" quality, as if one were witnessing an emperor sitting high in the depths of a palace, causing even him to feel a tremor in his heart and involuntarily submit. This was a direct feeling that even the twice-cooked pork king of Kakin could not give him; it was truly a rare and extraordinary thing.
So, "This is Conqueror's Haki!" Netero has read every single issue of "Pirate King," so he naturally knows what this aura represents.
However, for Hashirama, a true visitor from another world, who had been wandering around the tiny place of Konoha, the First Hokage obviously did not know what Conqueror's Haki was. He only vaguely felt that Sean's aura had changed instantly!
"You brat!" Hashirama, unusually, lost his composure. The ramen in his bowl lost its flavor. In a flash, he was already in front of Sean, reaching out to grab his wrist and examine him. However, he forgot that he was currently a projection of his will. His hand passed straight through Sean's body.
"Don't bother, Mr. Hashirama." Sean saw through Hashirama's thoughts at a glance and said calmly, "You can't touch it, and you can't learn it."
"Hmm, hehe~ Although, it really is quite amazing~" Hashirama awkwardly withdrew his hand, quietly sizing up Sean. His peaceful eyes flashed with an unprecedented brilliance as they opened and closed: "It doesn't matter if you can't learn it, but I can assure you that your power is very dangerous and very strong! If used well, it will definitely not be inferior to 'Yang Release'!"
Old ginger is spicier. Conqueror's Haki is indeed different, especially after the "Sage" version was adjusted to "psychic power"!
As the famous education enthusiast Kaido once said, "Dominance is everything!"
Conqueror's Haki, which is an existence that only one in a million people may awaken, is the king of Haki and the standard equipment of top-level strong people!
For example, Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, used a single, divinely evasive strike to shatter Kid's sword; and a seventy-year-old veteran destroyed Hive with a single, powerful punch.
Only by mastering the art of domination can one become and be called a true king by the world. Hashirama admits he's jealous. He finally managed to come out, but not only did he not play any role, he was also repeatedly "educated" by this kid Sean. Sure enough, in another world, the student must surpass the master!
Suddenly, Hashirama couldn't wait to see the "Dark Continent" where the two had been discussing, but unfortunately, now wasn't the time. Hashirama glanced at Sean.
Sean reached out a hand and rubbed Baiyun beside him, then said, "Grandpa, congratulations on successfully provoking him."
"I'm going to the Dark Continent, and I want all the intelligence you old fogies have gathered too!"
"Hehehe~ I wouldn't call that going after you." Netero looked intently at Sean and said, "Child, I'm old. There's nothing left in this world for me to cherish."
"I dare not speak of anything else, but when the day comes that you decide to set off, just tell me, and I will dedicate my last bit of energy to that unknown land!"
Netero has been chairman his whole life, and he's tired. Enough is enough. It's time to return the favor from that punch he received years ago!
An old steed in its stall may still aspire to gallop a thousand miles, but alas... "Old man, I'm afraid you won't live to see that day," Sean said, not wanting to discourage Netero. "The future belongs to the young. On the new ship bound for the Dark Continent, there may no longer be a place for you."
What do you mean? Why does this child talk like that annoying old man?
As expected, like father, like son. "Hmph~ Don't underestimate me. Apart from you, there are very few people in this world who dare to take a punch from me!"
Netero gave Sean a noncommittal glare, then floated down to stand beside him on the edge of the valley.
At that moment, the airship landed, and a group of examinees, along with the three examiners, Menchi, Buhara, and Saci, emerged one after another.
However, one figure was missing: the strange man known as "Jitala Ku"!
"He's not dead yet." Illumi slipped out from the back of the crowd, found Hisoka, and clicked his tongue as he watched him limp out of a deep pit. He really did look quite pathetic.
"Why not use Nen?" Illumi couldn't understand why Hisoka didn't just obediently follow the crowd and disembark, but instead chose to learn from Shawn and Netero and use the dumbest, most stupid, and most direct "physical landing" method. This was unlike something a Transmutation user would do. It was more like something an Enhancement user would do.
"Hehehe," Hisoka chuckled, his eyes meeting Illumi's deadpan gaze. He rolled over and sat on the ground, one arm supporting him. His crescent-shaped eyes greedily stared at Netero and Sean, and he licked his lips, saying, "Me? I just don't want to be weaker than my apple~"
Not reconciled!
Yes, that's it! The fruit farmers' pride is so strong, they'd give up their lives for it!
Illumi paused, his lifeless, emotionless eyes scrutinizing Hisoka from head to toe. It was as if he were looking at a stranger, making Hisoka feel somewhat unfamiliar.
Have fruit farmers found themselves unable to even chew the fruit peels after growing fruit for so long?
The apple even tries to bite the farmer in the process. This is a twisted version of "The Farmer and the Snake."
"Be grateful to me, because after you die, I'll build you a tomb shaped like a playing card," Illumi said expressionlessly, his face as hard as a nail, his lips making a chilling "creak-creak" sound as they moved.
"Hehehe~ You don't think much of me?" Hisoka brushed his hair aside, looked at Illumi with a sinister smile, and laughed.
It's not that I don't think it's promising, it's that you're being unrealistic. Illumi glanced at Netero, and then at Sean, who was standing next to him. That bastard, he's developed abnormally, he's grown into a towering tree, someone I've always had to look up to since he was little, and now he can't even see Netero's heels.
So, "If you really want to challenge them, you should wait until you get past Kuroro first."
"Hehehe~" Hisoka covered his face, suppressing his laughter, and looked at Illumi through his fingers, saying, "I suddenly regret participating in this year's Hunter Exam."
"Compared to those two, Kuroro is nothing but a rotten apple."
It's tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw it away.
"So, do you still want to fight him?" Illumi asked.
"We'll still fight." Hisoka stood up and walked into the crowd, saying, "Let's just consider this an appetizer before the main course, hehehe~"
An appetizer? The other party, as the head of an A-level criminal organization, must be no ordinary person.
Be careful not to capsize in the gutter! Illumi watched Hisoka walk away expressionlessly, then followed after him.
By this time, everyone had emerged from the airship and gathered at the edge of the valley, gazing down.
The deep valley stretched as far as the eye could see, and someone tried throwing a pebble down into it, but waited a long time without getting a response.
So, where's the "egg" in a boiled egg? Are you telling me to take out my own egg to boil?
Everyone looked at Menchi. Menchi chuckled, took off his pants, and wearing only a pair of leggings, he leaped into the valley in front of Todo and all the examinees. "Hey~ let me demonstrate for you first."
"Just you wait and see."
With that, he vanished from everyone's sight in a flash.
"Holy crap! Did she commit suicide out of guilt? Did she have to be so reckless!"
"God, she'd rather die than commit suicide! Even if we all died, that woman wouldn't. Open your dog eyes and look around! There's definitely something else going on in the valley; maybe the egg is in there."
Hehehe~ But a few discerning people, like Netero with his hands behind his back facing the group of examinees, calmly explained, "Grape spiders inhabit Mount Toad Tiger. She jumped down to collect their eggs."
"Damn, is the egg really down there? It's so deep, wouldn't you fall to your death if you jumped down?" The clamor was deafening. Apart from Gon, Kurapika, Leorio, Hanzo, Pons, Seiri, and a few others who were confident in their abilities, the other examinees undoubtedly swallowed hard, their legs trembling.
"This test is probably about courage," Hashirama said with a chuckle, glancing at the reactions of everyone present. "Collecting eggs from the bottomless abyss is a decent test, but compared to the Dark Continent you were talking to that old man about..."
"These exam questions are hardly worth mentioning."
"Yeah, it's nothing to mention."
So, it was time to leave. He casually snapped his fingers and called out number 2.
With his hands in his pockets, Sean slipped out of the examination hall after asking him to take the remaining hunter tests in his place.
"President, shouldn't we stop him?"
"Stop me? Are you going to stop me or am I? Didn't you see how badly I got beaten up?" Netero slapped the impetuous Buhara across the face, then glanced at Number 2 out of the corner of his eye as Sean walked away.
The brat agreed to let him take the exam, but didn't say how. Isn't the shadow clone also him?
"Let's just let him be."
"Let's just wait a year and see how that old bastard Maha gets beaten up."
