After passing several dozen meters, the surrounding fog miraculously dissipated, revealing a fog-free ring!

At this very moment, a strange scene came into view for Mitchellston—

Surprisingly, some people had already arrived on the deck.

And there are seven people in total!

One of them was maintaining a powerful [training], seemingly activating his ability, and this person was someone Mizeston recognized as Dia!

Beside Dia was Kito, who was looking through the information on her phone.

Besides the couple, two other figures were making strange syllables, seemingly conversing.

One of them was King, who was supposed to be in the third level of the serious crime ward, guarding Byron, Pariston, and Sherlock!

Behind Jin was a man with long white hair, and a clown-dressed Nen beast hovered beside him. He recognized the man; it was Kate from the biology class.

In addition, there were two... little children?

Mizziston stared blankly at the strange combination, completely unable to guess what had happened, when suddenly Kim's voice reached his ears—

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle..."

Jin made strange noises with a serious expression, and occasionally made gestures, as if he was using body language.

The beings he interacted with didn't seem very human.

It could barely be seen to have a specific shape, but it was not human-shaped. Instead, it was a three-dimensional structure like a semicircle superimposed on a square. It had no limbs and floated in the air like a ghost, covered with a tattered black burlap garment.

Mizziston couldn't find any facial features on its face, but he could clearly feel its gaze fixed on Kim.

"Guyi..."

The ghostly creature was also making strange syllables, clearly communicating with Jin.

The language they were speaking in was one that Milstein had never heard before, and it seemed both obscure and familiar.

for example.

After living together for a considerable period of time, several ethnic groups with different native languages ​​will often experience some changes in their languages ​​due to cohabitation and hybridization.

The language that Mizeston was hearing at this moment was a product of a certain extremely obscure and closed language that had been forcibly popularized after going through the above process.

It is worth noting that Mitchell did not see any "qi" being released from that unfamiliar figure.

It's like a Nen user who has entered the [Zetsu] realm.

But what was in front of him was less of a living being and more of a floating piece of black linen; it didn't look like a Nen user at all.

'Some kind of magical beast born with the ability to [kill]?'

Mitchellston felt a sense of confusion.

What's the deal with the Dia combination? And what about that strange, ghostly creature?

"Hey, Mitchellston, you're here too."

Dia noticed Mizeston jumping out and greeted him.

Everyone else, except for Kim and the ghostly creature, also turned their gazes toward Mizziston.

"In this way, the intelligence squad is also present. Sure enough, no matter which squad it is, there will always be some hunters who don't follow orders."

With a hint of helplessness, Qiduo waved his hand, signaling Mizaston to come closer.

With this, the gathering of Mizziston from the intelligence unit, Kito from the science unit, Kim from the defense unit, Kate from the biology unit, and Commander-in-Chief Dia, was enough to hold a collective meeting.

The broadcast said everyone should return to their posts, but the hunters present, including Mizziston, were basically neglecting their duties and running over there.

"...What happened? Why are there...children?"

Mitchellston hesitated for a moment, his gaze involuntarily drifting to the two children behind Kate.

Noticing Mitchellston's gaze, Kate adjusted her hat brim apologetically and said:

"I'm sorry, I failed to stop them. I thought it would be fine to leave them in the room, but somehow they followed me here."

"It's not Kate's fault, we followed her here ourselves."

One of the boys, who looked like an Enhancement-type user, said frankly:

"Uncle Cow, blame us if you must."

Mizeston scrutinized the boy before him with a strange look, and said:

"May I have your name?"

Why does this boy look so familiar?

"I am Gon Freecss, and I live on Whale Island. He is Killua, and he is my best friend."

The boy introduced the boy excitedly, pointing to another white-haired boy beside him.

Killua's expression was slightly unnatural, and he said with embarrassment and annoyance:

"Idiot! Don't say such cheesy things in front of so many people!"

He then turned to look at Mitchellston and said, feigning calmness:

“My name is Killua Zoldyck. I’m sorry for the trouble I’ve caused you, but we did come here on our own and it has nothing to do with Kate.”

Freecss... Zoldyck...

Mitchellston's eyes turned dead fish-like, and he knew in his heart that he didn't need to worry about these two brats anymore.

Dia then interjected:

"That black-haired kid has a strong intuition; he probably followed me by smell. The white-haired kid is my student; you can hit him as you please. You should ask Jin about the black-haired one."

"I have no objection."

Jin suddenly turned around and threw out a sentence, then acted as if nothing had happened and resumed communicating with the ghostly creature.

Xiao Jie: "..."

Killua: "..."

Mitchellston: "..."

Kido, who was watching from the sidelines: "..."

Kate, who seemed about to say something but hesitated, said, "..."

The ghostly creature that witnessed everything: "..."

“…Mizaston, ignore them. Those two idiots have no right to decide what’s going on with these two kids. One is an irresponsible teacher, and the other is an irresponsible father.”

Kido sighed and said to Mizaston.

Mitchell pressed his temples, looking troubled.

"No, I didn't say how to deal with these two children. Diya, don't sway the conversation. Since you and Jin are the guardians, just protect them. And who can explain to me what happened? And who is that over there...?"

Mizziston pointed to the ghostly creature, and then saw it nod its head, the hem of its black garment fluttering and swaying, as if waving to him.

'He's quite polite...'

Mitchellston was taken aback.

Then Qiduo said:

"When the broadcast started, I happened to be in the third-level serious crime zone. I knew that Dia was having an affair on the deck, so I rushed over to find her."

Seemingly having heard something strange, everyone turned to look at Dia with eyes that seemed to regard her as a scumbag.

Dia remained unfazed and continued to maintain her abilities.

"Then I went out and found that Jin was quietly following me, but I was almost there, so I didn't have time to catch up."

"That's what I said calmly."

At this moment, Kate suddenly spoke up:

"I was taking Gon and Killua to visit Ging when he was looking embarrassed and didn't know what to do. Then he saw Kita run out and ran away after her as if he was running away too."

"I didn't think much about it. I instinctively told Xiao Jie and the others to stay put while I went up. And you all saw what happened."

Mitchell nodded, suppressing his complaints, and quickly asked:

"And that person over there, is he the source of all this fog and moisture?"

Dia nodded and said:

"Pretty much. These water vapors and mists should be part of its body, so I can't directly control the dissipation of these mists. I can only use the method of transporting moisture to create the current fog-free zone."

"However, it's not a big problem; this fog and water won't affect navigation."

"Only this person's true identity..."

Dia looked at the human and the monster who were having a passionate conversation and said:

"He's the gatekeeper."

"!"

Mitchell's gaze sharpened, alarm bells rang loudly in his mind, and his concentration instantly rose to the highest level!

The word "gatekeeper" will always refer to only one specific race during this voyage.

That ancient race that guards the gates of the Dark Continent, whose fate is in the hands of the voyage!

"We've only just entered unexplored waters, so why are there gatekeepers here?"

Mitchell suppressed his shock and quickly asked.

Based on the timeline, they still have at least a week before they reach the forbidden area of ​​the Gatekeepers, and they will have to pass through the relay continent and supply stations along the way.

What, they moved?

"The translator asked us this, and we're not entirely sure either."

Dia gestured in the direction of Jin.

Then everyone saw that the person and the gatekeeper who had been having a heated discussion finally stopped.

Jin turned his head and said mysteriously:

"Friends, it seems... we need to change our plans."
