Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Mu Muze spoke nonchalantly, her voice sweet as honey, her eyes overflowing with ecstasy.

Diya's encouraging pat on the head pleased her greatly.

Okay! In any case, this matter must be done perfectly!

We absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot let Teacher Dia down!

Mu Muze puffed out her budding breasts, nodded her head, and contentedly enjoyed her beloved's caress, the gemstone on her earlobe swaying slightly...

She felt she was close to achieving happiness.

Dudu lulu lulu...

A strange cell phone ringtone sounded.

Diya's eyes flickered for a moment, then she slowly picked up her phone and looked at the caller's name.

He answered the phone:

"Hey... um... let them understand first, if they can't handle it, leave it to me."

The phone rang with a busy signal, and then the call was disconnected.

Curiosity flashed in Mumu Ze's eyes, and he was about to ask about the contents of the phone call.

Dudu lulu lulu...

Another phone call came in.

Diya glanced at the caller ID and answered without hesitation:

"How did it go... that's good... um, please take care of it, leave the rest to me."

"Forehead……"

Mumu Ze hesitated and uttered a single syllable.

Dudu ludu...

To seize the initiative from the outset.

Diya glanced at her phone, her brow furrowing slightly, but then, as if remembering something, she answered the call:

"Is that you...? Alright, don't make any rash moves. I have an idea to verify. Follow my instructions."

beep—

Dudu ludu...

I've received an unusually large number of phone calls today.

"It's me, Diya... Did you receive it?... It's alright, you deserve it. Hide away for a bit, and come out after I've finished dealing with everything."

Dudu ludu...

Under the strange gazes of Mumu Ze, Kazhuo, and Fugates, Dia answered the phone without changing her expression:

"Hey?"

Did you tell her?

"...It's alright. In a few hours, what she believes in will be on our side."

"I know what you're trying to say, but I'm also very confident in my choice."

"If all else fails, I'll provide a backup plan."

Beep.

A mysterious darkness flickered in Diya's eyes as she slowly put down her phone.

Boom!

A sudden clap of thunder boomed across the sky!

A blinding white beam of lightning shone through the glass, illuminating everyone in the room in a ghastly white light.

In the dim light, Mumu Ze seemed to see Diya reveal an expression she didn't recognize.

But as the white lightning receded like a tide, the strange expression vanished back into the shadows.

Upon closer inspection...

Diya remained calm and composed, her expression unchanged.

He seemed unwilling to say a word.

Chapter 428 Conflict × His name is Dia, and he is a hunter

July 20, 16:11 PM.

Ruby put away her phone, looked up at the pale sky, and had a strange expression on her face.

It will be dark in two hours.

He turned and pushed open the door, and a heavy, silent atmosphere flowed in like water.

Before them lay a base that should have been extremely well hidden.

But those uninvited "compatriots" were able to find this place with pinpoint accuracy.

The room was neither too big nor too small, just big enough to fit two soft reclining chairs covered in red velvet. Ruby saw the young man with short black hair calmly staring at Melina.

Ruby knows that person.

His name is Chrollo Lucilfer, and he is a rising star who emerged after he left Meteor City.

Judging from his performance today, he is indeed very capable.

With a gentle smile on her face, Melina looked at Ruby, who had just entered, and asked:

"How's it going? You've been gone for so long, you should have gotten through by now, right?"

"Mmm...yes."

Ruby stammered in reply:

"The operator was directly connected to Meteor City's special dedicated line. Kakin's cyber forces do not have the authority to monitor communications of this level..."

He then turned to Kuroro and said:

“The elder was very happy. He said Meteor Street was saved. He also asked when you were going back, since the anniversary of Yajiang's death was approaching. But I told him that you would not be going back.”

"Ya Jiang Po's death anniversary" is a secret code in Meteor City, known only to the elders and Chrollo. This statement proves that Ruby wasn't talking nonsense, but had indeed relayed their message back to Meteor City.

Kuroro's heart stirred, and he nodded slightly:

"Good work."

Ruby nodded and slowly shrank into the corner.

Not long ago, following the elder's clues, he found this place and met Ruby, who had already joined Melena's ranks.

After revealing the whole story, Kuroro intended to shift the blame to Ruby and make him bear the risk of being targeted by the King's Army. However, Morena suddenly appeared and claimed that she had special connections that could bypass the cyber forces' surveillance.

Kuroro turned to look at Melena and her several menacing subordinates behind her, a thought flickering in his mind:

'A Nen user with this kind of aura could never be trained overnight, yet someone with this level of martial prowess remains unknown, hiding in this dark corner…'

The strange behavior of the Molina group made him sense something unusual.

That being said, Kuroro wasn't worried that these people would cause him any trouble.

He swept his gaze across the crowd, taking in the behavior of all of them.

Everyone, except for Melina, did nothing wrong.

This isn't referring to their outward aura; when it comes to that, even Kuroro has to admit their strength.

The manifestations here refer to everything other than mere psychic energy, such as martial arts, physical skills, experience, willpower, and so on.

Kuroro couldn't see the slightest bit of brilliance in these people.

Despite being a seasoned Nen user, he acted like an ordinary person getting a haircut, buying stocks, or moving things.

His demeanor lacked the composure and thoughtfulness of a true master; he seemed more like a nouveau riche who had suddenly become wealthy.

Although these people outnumber the current crippled spider, Kuroro estimates that he has a 70-80% chance of winning if a conflict actually breaks out.

The 20% reduction stemmed from the unpredictable feeling he got from their leader, Melena.

Kuroro looked at Melena thoughtfully.

Suddenly, Melina covered her mouth shyly and asked, feigning embarrassment:

"Mr. Kuroro, what are you trying to do by staring at me like that?"

"……Feel sorry."

Kuroro paused, apologized, and said:

"I'm just curious. Miss Morina has so many talented people under her command, yet I've never heard of you before. Even Miss Morina herself, as the core leader, possesses astonishing strength. That must have taken a tremendous amount of effort, right?"

Disappointment flashed across Melina's face, and her tone was dejected:

"I see. I thought Mr. Kuroro wanted to join us. What a pity, since I even prepared the necessary items."

"However, our strength pales in comparison to that of the Phantom Troupe, so it's hardly a matter of whether we've tried hard or not."

Her gaze deliberately swept over the three people—Uvoginfinx, Kuroro, and the others—behind Kuroro.

Oh right, and Feitan was almost blocked by Chrollo sitting down.

Melina glanced down subtly.

Feitan: "...###!"

Just before Feitan was about to unleash his fury, Melena naturally withdrew her gaze and returned to her dignified demeanor.

Kuroro smiled at this and didn't dwell on the mutual flattery.

After all, based on just those two lines of dialogue, the second condition for [The Thief's Ultimate Skill] has already been fulfilled.
