Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

The next moment, the psychic bullet was thrown by Leiza into the encirclement formed by the eight demons, turning into one of the rapidly rebounding psychic bullets.

As Leiza continuously threw out condensed mental projectiles.

Soon, within the encirclement of the eight demons, five powerful purple psychic projectiles were launched repeatedly and wildly along completely unpredictable trajectories, like a violent storm of psychic projectiles.

This is a tactic that Leiza usually uses when facing weaker opponents.

It can produce the effect of dozens of projectiles with just five projectiles, and these five projectiles are the limit of the Eight Demons' operation.

Exceeding this number will not only prevent the spirit beasts from transmitting the message in time, but will also cause the spirit projectiles to collide with each other in the air, wasting their power.

However, it can be said that any enemy trapped in the encirclement has virtually no choice but to fight back.

unless……

The thick fog continued to spread.

It quickly extended to the boundary of the encirclement formed by the eight demons.

Strangely, despite the dense network of psychic projectiles repeatedly weaving through the thick fog, not a single projectile was triggered...

Leiza had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Even if that young man named Dia had exceptional agility, it would be impossible for him to completely evade all the psychic projectiles under such an attack.

How did he do that?

Chapter 238 Breaking the Tactics! × Luggage

'The circle cannot be passed...'

Leiza intended to use the [Circle] to investigate the swirling fog, but was surprised to find that the fog could actually inhibit the extension of the [Circle].

'That's a great ability, but according to the principle of checks and balances, you, being in the fog, should also have lost your sight...'

If you can't even see it, how can you possibly evade the net of mental projectiles woven by the eight demons?

The situation is becoming increasingly bizarre, and the most urgent matter at hand is—

The fog had completely engulfed the eight spirit beasts!

boom!

A loud bang, accompanied by a powerful explosion, echoed through the fog.

However, Leiza did not relax; instead, he frowned and began to concentrate intensely.

This is because he lost contact with a spirit beast the instant the explosion occurred!

Relying on the characteristics of the [Emission] type, Leiza can summon spirit beasts that can be returned to his body to replenish his energy.

But this is on the premise that the Nian beast is not dead.

The death of the Nen beast just now means that a portion of his Nen energy cannot be recovered, and there is obviously no time to restore that Nen energy during the battle.

'In the fog, the demon's vision was obstructed, leading to a missed catch...'

Leiza instantly realized that Diya's method of breaking his tactics was to use the fog to obscure the Nian Beasts' vision, causing them to make mistakes during high-speed passing movements.

Then he could effortlessly wait for the Nian Beast to kill itself.

'But the core of this tactic lies in how to avoid being hit by the ball!'

Leiza began to seriously analyze the possible location of Diya.

First of all, it's impossible to be surrounded, as there's absolutely no way to dodge a high-speed projectile.

Secondly, it's impossible that they dug a hole to hide, as they were standing on a cliff made of solid rock.

In this kind of terrain, the noise from digging a hole would not escape Leiza's ears, and the vibrations would not be suppressed.

Then there are only two possibilities—

Firstly, the opponent possesses spatial abilities and is no longer within the encirclement.

Secondly, the opponent has the ability to fly and is currently hiding in mid-air!

hum-

A giant psychic bullet was condensed by Leiza's hands, and then he threw it forcefully into the air in the mist.

'This psychic bullet might not be very powerful, but its detonation area is much larger. If he's really in mid-air, this psychic bullet will definitely hit him!'

Sure enough, the moment the bullet approached—

boom!

Gunshots suddenly rang out.

A bullet flew out from the mist and detonated the huge psychic bullet in mid-air!

'really……'

Leiza, as expected of a former Class A wanted criminal, was extremely experienced and immediately forced Dia to reveal his location.

Then, he suddenly waved his arm, drawing all the spirit beasts back into his body.

There was no other reason than that Dia's mist had already begun to spread to his feet!

In this situation, continuing to maintain the Mind Beast would be meaningless, because a ball thrown into mid-air cannot be bounced back.

The fog is now so vast that Dia's exact location is completely unknown.

Leza's tactics have been completely cracked!

'Truly a master, no wonder Kim approves of him.'

Leiza's tactics were broken, but a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

In the mist, Dia was equally amazed by Leiza's swift reaction.

He activated the First Celestial Phenomenon with incredible speed; less than 30 seconds have passed since the start of the battle.

Leiza had already completed a series of decisions: "deploying tactics - implementing tactics - probing positions - abandoning tactics," demonstrating his exceptional decisiveness.

Diya hovered quietly above the largest demon, number 7, watching it transform into a beam of light and be withdrawn, knowing that Leiza was about to unleash his true power.

Perhaps due to a lack of expert guidance, Leiza's abilities were underdeveloped. Despite having strong potential, he could only use it for playing ball.

For example, in the animation, he fused Nen Beast No. 6 and No. 7 into a more powerful Nen Beast No. 13.

Following this logic, Leiza should have tried to fuse all the Nen Beasts from No. 1 to No. 7 together to create the strongest Nen Beast No. 28, but he clearly doesn't have that ability.

It's no wonder that despite Leiza's formidable physical abilities, he could only be rated "Excellent" in the attribute system.

The recall of the Nen beast was a sign that Leiza was preparing to fight using Nen bullets, which he was more proficient in, similar to volleyballs.

Without the Nen beasts to disperse the Nen energy, Leiza's [Smash] will make the Nen bullets incredibly powerful, capable of injuring an ordinary Nen user with a mere graze or killing them instantly upon contact.

The thick fog quickly engulfed Leiza, and at the same time, he completed the recall of all his Nen beasts and condensed a small, stable Nen bullet in his hand in advance.

Swish!

A dark shadow suddenly flashed past Leiza.

"too slow!"

Leiza roared, completely unfazed. The magic ball in his hand instantly expanded, filled with a violent aura.

He suddenly turned around, his right arm trembled, and the divination ball in his hand swept through the air, tearing through the mist with a chilling buzzing sound, instantly shredding the dark figure!

puff--

However, the strange sound coming from where the shadow was torn apart startled Leiza.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that the dark shape was merely an unremarkable cloud, quite inconspicuous in the mist.

'Can his Nen beast also create clones? Like a [Manipulation] ability...?'

Leiza frowned. His vision was now blocked, while the enemy could use their flight ability to hide in any location.

At the same time, Diya can rely on this cloud-shaped spirit beast to continuously deplete his physical strength. If this continues, he will definitely be defeated.

We must escape this fog!

Leiza made a decisive decision: staying in this fog was tantamount to waiting to die!

He condensed a huge psychic bullet, and then Leiza suddenly jumped up and threw the psychic bullet toward the cliff below him!

boom!

The terrifying power caused the coastal cliffs to shake violently, as if the earth were collapsing and splitting open, and a huge, visible crack rapidly extended downwards from the cliff!

A series of teeth-grinding rock-cracking sounds rang out, and the entire cliff collapsed downwards as if its skeleton had been removed, taking Leiza down with it into the ocean!

'Could the fog really extend into the sea?'

Leiza was certain that this method would force Dia out, so he plunged headlong into the dark and deep ocean!

Loy City, National Medical University.

In the dark office, only moonlight streamed in.

Qiduo sat listlessly in her chair, head down, staring blankly at the suitcase in front of her.

The room was as dark as ink, as if it were dragging her, who was on the verge of despair, into an abyss.

This is the suitcase that Dia left in her office. (See Chapter 53)

It was also the only thing she possessed at that moment, belonging to Dia.

'You're alive, right, Dia...? Then tell me...'

Qiduo stared silently at the suitcase, showing no intention of opening it.

She stubbornly believed that Dia would definitely come back.

If we pack his things now, it will be the same as packing his belongings in advance.

'Unlucky...'
