Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

"Are you going to help me or not? If not, I'll kill her myself!"

Qi Duo's eyes reddened, and she felt all the blood rush to her head; even the hand holding the scalpel was trembling.

She stared intently at Diya, with an air of unwavering determination, even to the point of self-destruction.

"Gu..."

Looking into those familiar eyes, Diya swallowed hard, a bead of sweat forming on her forehead.

He couldn't tell them apart, he really couldn't!

If this Qiduo in front of him is fake, why does she give him such a familiar feeling? But if she is real, her behavior is completely unlike that of a different person.

In his memory, Qiduo was a calm, restrained, intelligent, gentle person who would never casually call for violence.

None of these points match up with the Qiduo in front of us.

'Even if one were granted an ability like [emotion control], there shouldn't be such a drastic difference...'

Diya knew very well that just as there are people in this world who can hear other people's emotions like there is melody, there must also be people in this world who can change other people's emotions.

But the current situation has changed so drastically.

After a brief moment of thought, he came to the same conclusion as Mori—there was an unidentified person hiding somewhere causing trouble!

But the most urgent task is to calm down Qiduo.

To distinguish between the two, Dia decided to name the one in front of her "Green-haired Qiduo" and the one with white hair "White-haired Qiduo" based on their hair color.

Clang!

In the blink of an eye, the sound of metal clashing could be heard in the distance.

He frowned and turned to look. Mori was facing off against the white-haired Kita, holding a short dagger.

The two weapons collided in mid-air, sparking a few drops of blood. If one wasn't careful, a few drops of blood would fly out.

Overall, however, the white-haired Qiduo had the upper hand. Just as Dia had previously commented, in terms of the speed and ruthlessness of his sword strikes, the white-haired Qiduo was stronger than he had imagined.

"Okay, I'll help you... subdue her, then interrogate her first, and then see if we should kill her..."

Time was of the essence. After a moment's thought, Dia said to the green-haired Qiduo, but the more he spoke, the more hollow his voice became.

What he fears most now is the possibility of a situation like the Tiger Talisman, where "both are actually the same person, just split into two parts."

That would be a real problem...

"Humph!"

Hearing the hesitation in Dia's words, the green-haired Qiduo narrowed her eyes, snorted coldly, and said nothing more. She then turned her head and flashed towards the two who were fighting fiercely.

when!when!when!

Barely managing to block his opponent's three cunning attacks, Mori was forced to retreat repeatedly by the relentless onslaught, and could only grit his teeth and hold on.

He only had one hand available at the moment, which was still too disadvantageous for him in a fight.

Moreover, although the opponent could not be called a master of the knife, his beautiful aura attack and defense technique was perfect, and he was obviously not someone to be trifled with.

stomping on...

Suddenly, Mori heard hurried footsteps coming from his left and glanced at them out of the corner of his eye.

The two hunters had actually stopped arguing and were rushing towards him.

'Tsk...troublesome...'

Mori had no choice but to take the blow, and then used the precious time he gained from the injury to desperately pull back a distance.

'At this distance, I shouldn't get blown up!'

At that moment, Mori's expression changed, and he quietly waited for something.

The next moment, a mummified corpse suddenly flew out from behind him and landed a short distance in front of him, blocking the path of the white-haired Qiduo.

Bai Faqi frowned, suddenly changed direction, and lunged towards the direction from which Diya and the other person were attacking from the left. At the same time, a long-lost white [sterile suit] began to appear on her body.

boom!

As if someone had snapped a grenade, the falling mummified corpse suddenly surged with energy, then exploded violently, turning into a powerful gust of wind that made one's bones ache.

The sudden explosion stopped Dia and her companion from rushing forward, and also caused the white-haired Qi Duo, who had lunged forward, to roll on the ground once more before calmly standing up.

When the gale subsided, Mori's figure appeared by the wall, where only a few stiff, desiccated corpses stood forlornly.

'Death by exploding is one of the limitations of [Transformation of Heaven and Earth], but in this situation, it can be transformed into a small bomb using the high level of [Manifestation Aura]!'

Mori carefully calculated in his mind that the Nen he transmitted was enough to cause several explosions:

'About 40 times, any more and they'll drain me dry...'

In the distance, Dia slowly lowered the arm that had been blocking her way, squinting as she looked at Mori in the corner.

The sudden explosion was alright; its power wasn't enough to injure him from that distance. But the fact that the corpse could fly that far surprised him.

'Although my muscles are paralyzed by the cyan-green ripples, the rope around my neck can still move freely while being dragged around. Is this a [Manipulation] ability? But why can it still explode?'

The explosion likely represents a change in the nature of Nen, belonging to the [Transmutation] type of ability, or perhaps the more general [Conjuration] type.

Swish!

Before Dia could think for long, the green-haired Qido beside her had already turned into a blur and rushed towards the white-haired Qido who had just straightened up.

The two immediately started fighting. Enemies meeting are bound to be furious, and neither of them held back.

For the time being, Dia could only watch them fight amongst themselves, unable to intervene.

Both were wearing white sterile gowns, completely covering their long hair, making it impossible to tell them apart from their appearance alone.

Seeing that they had actually gotten themselves into a stalemate, Mori was overjoyed. He quickly controlled the several mummies around him to fly towards the group, while he himself ran off to the other side.

There were more corpses in that direction, still standing stiffly in place.

With the situation looking very promising, Mori decided without hesitation to press his advantage, or at the very least, use the corpses to buy himself a chance to escape!

"whee……"

Suddenly, a familiar laugh rang in Mori's ears again. A stiff, motionless, mummified corpse suddenly twitched its facial muscles, revealing a sarcastic smile as it turned to look at him.

boom--

Maori's figure was kicked back to the corner by the mummified corpse, like a ball.

"Damn it...who are you?!"

Almost stunned by the sudden kick, Mori cursed and stared in disbelief at the mummified corpse.

Suddenly, the mummified corpse's blood-red skin rippled and peeled off, revealing a face with a bright smile.

Pariston glanced at the two fighting over the real and fake Qido, then met Dia's gaze as she looked in their direction.

He greeted us with a smile:

"Hey, Mr. Dia, why didn't you get infected?"

Chapter 225 The Long-Awaited Fragment of the Insect Arrow × Is He Dead?

There's a classic abstract comment: "Who is bad?"

For example, the Battle of Nagasaki, Toyokawa, and Asukayama—who was the bad guy?

Most of the time it's just a joke; there aren't really any good or bad people involved.

But when Pariston appeared, it seemed as if the question had been answered.

"How can this not be surprising at all? Pariston, you..."

Dia sighed and walked towards Pariston, no longer holding back, her aura surging and radiating a powerful presence.

Within the dark clouds on the ceiling, a bluish-green light flickered in and out, as if a venomous snake were lurking within, preparing to unleash a torrent of venomous lightning.

"The assessment that there was nothing unexpected about it is actually quite hurtful, Mr. Dia."

Pariston looked slightly troubled, ignoring the specks of blue light piercing through the dark clouds overhead, and said:

"The [Evil King] has actually failed. Maybe I'm really going to die here today."

"Haha, just kidding~"

He waved his hand, his smile still unreadable.

'Is it his ability, the [Evil King], that made Kito the way she is now?'

Dia silently counted the seconds, waiting for the perfect moment to activate time stop.

Pariston was about 40 meters away from him. At his speed in a diving suit, it would take him about a second to cross that distance. If he activated time stop directly, he would waste half the time.

If possible, Dia still wants to try to kill with one blow.

dong dong dong...

His brass-soled wetsuit shoes pounded the water in the pool, making a dull sound like a farewell bell.

The distance gradually closed until Dia could clearly see Pariston's calm expression.

He stood quietly in front of a window, the faint moonlight streaming in through the closed window, casting a faint shadowy figure behind him.

'Um? '

Diya paused, suddenly feeling the ripples within her body begin to vibrate incessantly, and a sense of crisis welled up in her heart.

'This distance is perfect; let's all die together.'

Ignored by Dia and Pariston, Mori stood up at some point and stared at the shadowy figures.

In the moonlight, it was barely possible to make out that they were a group of swaying, desiccated corpses.

'burst!'

Bang!

About 20 mummies suddenly had their auras surge, then exploded violently with a dull thud, as if a giant hand had slammed into the bulging sacs. A burst of wind instantly appeared behind Pariston.
