Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

--------------

An airship bearing the Hunter Association's emblem landed at Kakin First Airport.

Three people stepped off the airship.

A group of Kakin officers quickly surrounded them, and the leader saluted, saying solemnly:

"You must be the experts from the Hunter Association. Thank you all for accepting our invitation to assist us. Um, and this is..."

The leading officer stared in surprise at one of the hunters wearing a hat.

This person isn't in the intelligence report.

“Busidra, a one-star blacklisted hunter and a member of the Hunter Association’s Qinglin Team, is here to protect Lu Pei’s safety.”

"Isra said earnestly."

Lu Pei, who had dark skin, smiled, stepped forward, warmly shook the officer's hand, and introduced him, saying:

"I am Lu Pei Hailando, a scavenger. Because I am not good at fighting, but because of my ability, I easily get myself into dangerous situations. That's why I called on Busidora to assist me. Of course, we won't ask for much in compensation this time."

"Oh, I see. Thank you in advance."

The officer calmly withdrew his hand, smiled and nodded, then turned to look at the third person.

The man had an unusually strange appearance. Although he was a living person, he had a long, horse-like face with long, protruding teeth. He was dressed in purple and had a long blade hanging from his waist.

'A swordsman, huh...'

The officer glanced at the long sword, then calmly and warmly inquired:

"Mr. Sach Kobayakawa, it's a pleasure to have you here."

"Just call me Saqiu, there's no need for such formalities."

Saqiu replied calmly, without rushing forward to fawn over Lu Pei.

In fact, he looked down on Lu Pei's behavior just now, which was a disgrace to the association.

'And then there's Buxidora, who, despite his lack of strength, dares to call himself the Qinglin Team. His arrogance will get him killed sooner or later.'

Sa Qiu shook his head inwardly, having a very low opinion of Lu Pei and the other man.

Especially Busidora, despite receiving a one-star rating, his strength is far from worthy of that star.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party's "Blacklist Hunter" career path was so popular and that they had such a good relationship with the Disciplinary Department, they wouldn't have gotten this star rating at all.

Moreover, the fact that the other party is actually an "anti-chairman faction" already demonstrates their stupidity.

Sachs himself had no interest in factional struggles; he was a staunch neutralist who didn't get involved in politics, and he usually didn't react at all when he saw Pariston and Chido getting along well.

However, he had great respect for the chairman, which is why he was willing to change his appearance to look so terrible for the chairman's sake.

Therefore, Sa Qiu felt utterly contemptuous of the Lu Pei duo, who were so ignorant as to show no respect for the chairman.

"Hey, we should have also invited Mr. Porter White, the Samsung terrorist hunter. Didn't he come?"

The officer looked around but did not see the person he was most looking forward to.

In fact, as a military analysis expert, Porter's published military science works were actually the topics of his graduation thesis during his military academy days.

Therefore, the officer himself was very familiar with Porter.

But I don't think I saw him today.

"He had other things to do, so he had to decline your invitation."

Saqiu continued:

"He is currently in Lupo, trying to mediate the civil war."

"Lupo? That country that fought a century-long civil war?"

The officer asked incredulously:

"Can that kind of war be mediated? I thought they would fight until they were completely wiped out."

"It didn't work before, but now things have taken a turn for the better."

Saqiu, naturally aware of Lupo's situation, smiled and shook his head, explaining:

"Some time ago, someone discovered the bloodline of the Lupo royal family, which had been hidden among the people, in Pati, a city on the border between the Republic of Minbo and Lupo. However, they were all dead when they were discovered."

"In other words, there are no living members of the royal family in Lupo. The morale of the royalists within the country has plummeted, and the revolutionaries have seized the opportunity to achieve great success. This will be Lupo's closest chance to unification."

"But Porter believed that if the revolutionaries insisted on exterminating the royalists, they might be forced to support a new royal family, which would divide the country again and lead to endless war."

"So, he was actually going to persuade the revolutionaries to treat the royalists with appeasement, that is, not to exterminate them, but to achieve unification through gentle means of ideological reform."

The officer nodded repeatedly as he listened, and at the end, he couldn't help but sigh:

"As expected of Mr. Potter, his level of thinking is beyond the reach of ordinary people like us, and his understanding of war and peace is so profound."

"Then please follow me, gentlemen. King Nasby has been waiting in the palace for quite some time."

With that, the officer turned and walked toward the convoy behind him.

Lu Pei obediently followed behind Sa Qiu.

He witnessed the entire conversation between the officer and Saqiu, and naturally sensed the obvious difference in treatment between them.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. As one of the Zodiacs, and a famous detective, Saqiu was more suitable for this case than him in terms of both experience and expertise.

'But it doesn't matter. As long as we can find the intruder's identity before Kobayakawa, we can naturally win Kakin's friendship, and then rebuild the Kiyorin Squad with Kakin's support...'

Moreover, considering that the person who invaded the royal palace must have been exceptionally skilled in combat.

Lu Pei also specially enlisted the help of his trusted confidante, Bu Xidora. No matter who the other party was, as long as Bu Xidora was by his side, there would be no problem...

probably not.

Chapter 376 Ability Evolution × Tidal Sound

"Regarding the recent international situation, in response to the changing political landscape in Luxembourg, Samsung Hunter Portbay Gigant suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield to mediate. Several experts expressed differing opinions. Below are the experts' comments..."

"Located at the Golcada shipyard, the super cruise ship project, which has been under construction for 20 years, is nearing completion. Experts predict it will be completed earlier than originally planned. It has now entered the naming phase, and below are some names chosen by netizens through voting..."

"Yesterday, Prince Camilla, the second prince, once again appeared at a charity gala, reiterating the human rights issues of the 120 million unaccompanied people in the outer suburbs of New Delhi. His Highness pointed out that the prevailing mindset of not treating discriminated ethnic groups as human beings is a grave mistake..."

"Recently, someone photographed what appeared to be Prince Mumu Ze appearing on a shopping street. He was dressed youthfully and had a bright and charming smile. However, passersby claimed to have seen the prince behaving intimately with a man. Millions of netizens are outraged and are threatening to sue the passerby..."

"A friendly reminder from the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention: The spring flu season is approaching. Please take precautions and minimize time spent in public places..."

"Miss Poker—"

Pokson casually tossed aside the newspaper in his hand, got up and walked towards Mumu Ze's room, thinking to himself:

There's not much useful news...

Pushing open the door, Pokson saw Mumu Ze standing in front of the mirror, fiddling with her skirt:

"Your Highness, what brings you here? If there's nothing else, I still need to prepare dinner."

"Bock, come here and help me pull up the zipper on the back."

Mumu Ze was engrossed in admiring herself, completely ignoring Pokson's perfunctory attitude.

"..."

Poxon stepped forward, zipped up the expensive, fine court dress, and asked:

"Your Highness, you look so handsome, are you going to see someone?"

"It's not that I want to see someone, it's that [we] are going to see someone."

Mu Muze straightened her hair, looked at her dignified self in the mirror, but her voice gradually turned cold:

“My mother just told me that my father is going to host a banquet at the Royal Palace to thank some guests for their assistance in the Royal Army’s investigation into the ‘Invasion of the Royal Palace’ incident.”

"My father specially invited my third brother and me to the banquet..."

Pokson paused, his brow furrowing.

Does King Nasby suspect us?

If that's the case, then it's troublesome, since they know better than anyone that the person who broke into the royal palace that night was none other than Dia!

Mumu Ze shook his head, somewhat puzzled:

“I don’t know either. Father invited us and Third Brother, which seemed to indicate that he suspected us, but he insisted on not giving the King’s Army a special search warrant.”

Pokson recalled the colonel she had recently scolded and driven away.

The other party made a lot of fuss but couldn't produce a special search warrant, so in the end they had to leave the same way they came, without getting anything in return.

"Pok, our life is wonderful now, isn't it..."

Mu Muze lowered his head, his voice growing colder:

Why do people always come to ruin such a beautiful life?

"I have endured eighteen years of loneliness before seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Don't I deserve happiness?"

"Those outsiders, they'd better be complete idiots, otherwise if they actually find anything..."

She suddenly turned to look at Poxon, her eyes brimming with suppressed madness and ferocity.
