Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

Dia stepped forward in astonishment to check.

The severed limbs looked as if they had been copied and printed; the muscle structure and the fingerprints on the fingertips were exactly the same.

and.

Dia felt that these severed limbs looked somewhat like Pariston's hands and feet...

"Um... this must have been Pariston's doing, right?"

Jin suddenly darted out from the side, looking at the severed limbs with a strange expression.

The strange sight here had already attracted everyone's attention, and everyone saw the identical severed limbs scattered all over the ground.

Logically speaking, it's just a human limb, which shouldn't be anything special to these battle-hardened Nen users.

But they all look exactly the same...

"Qiduo, can you tell if these hands and feet came from the same person?"

Dia turned to look at Qiduo and asked.

"Sure, you can tell immediately by putting it in my petri dish. After all, the tissues grown from different people's genes will be absolutely different."

Qi Duo nodded and decisively materialized a [scalpel] and a [petition dish].

Then, she went up to each of them, cut off a small amount of tissue from the remaining limbs, and placed them in a petri dish.

Soon, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Dia, saying:

"Although I don't know how it was done, maybe through cloning, in any case, all these actions came from one person, and there is no data of this person in my gene bank."

“That’s Pariston’s, that’s my gut feeling.”

Jin waved his hand and said decisively.

He might mistake others, but he would never mistake Pariston's things.

Before their complete falling out, Kim and Pariston were longtime friends with a complicated and unknown relationship.

"...Is this guy really immortal?"

Dia kicked the arm on the ground like a ball, somewhat amazed:

"Although I knew beforehand that his ability seemed to have a strong life-saving effect, the fact that he also has this ability to regenerate infinitely is too abnormal and disgusting."

The others watched as Dia played with the limbs on the ground and fell silent.

It's hard to say who's more perverted right now.

"Stop playing around, you idiot, look at this."

Qiduo, dissatisfied, grabbed Dia, picked out a limb from the ground, and placed it in front of him:

"Look closely."

Dia looked closely and saw that the Pariston's Hand looked just like the others, but there was a bloody, mangled wound on its upper arm.

"This is a bite wound, and it was forcibly torn off when the muscles were not fully tense."

Kido pointed to the broken muscle fibers and said seriously:

"It's not just this arm, but also the thigh; there are bite marks on many parts of the body."

"..."

An eerie silence fell over the crowd.

Qiduo's meaning is already very clear.

"Looks like this guy isn't doing too well either."

Dia touched her chin and silently mourned for a moment the tragic Pariston.

However, Kim's opinion was completely different:

"It's hard to say. Given Pariston's personality, seeing others endure disgust and pain to eat his limbs and survive, he probably wouldn't have any other thoughts."

"He might even be happy if he proposed the plan himself."

Pariston is the kind of man who feels happy when he is hated.

If the people on the satellite ship were forced to eat that stuff because of his arrangements, then it's understandable that they would hate Pariston.

"...Never mind that, let's go up to the ship and take a look."

Diya grabbed the limbs in Qiduo's hand and threw her more than a hundred meters away, while also summoning a weather spirit beast to wash her hand.

He didn't care what happened to Pariston.

The important thing is to keep that guy's blood out of Qiduo's hands.

A few minutes later.

The remaining items inside the satellite ship were collected and placed on the beach.

There is half a barrel of unused fuel.

The large number of stored hearts and lungs appear to be another masterpiece by Pariston.

There were a few more corpses, this time not Pariston's, but they were already close to rotting, crawling with maggots.

"Those were the people I killed."

With his hands in his pockets and a solemn expression, Jin said:

"Although I killed them, it was only because of our different positions that we had no choice but to fight each other. In the end, they were professional hunters registered with the Hunter Association. Let's bury them."

Jin didn't expect that either.

After so much time, Byangde actually just watched these corpses rot on the ship, unwilling to give them a sea burial or burn them.

Perhaps in that guy's eyes, these few corpses were also usable resources; at sea, one can't ask for more.

In the case of ordinary ocean, fishing can be used to solve the food problem.

However, catching and processing fish in the dark sea is very dangerous and can easily attract unexpected and powerful creatures.

For safety reasons and to avoid any unforeseen complications, neither Dia's group nor BYYAND's group had any interest in the world beneath the sea.

The sand is loose and obviously not suitable for burying people. Earthquakes are prone to occur near the sea, and if the burial is too shallow, the person will easily pop up.

A group of professional hunters discussed the matter animatedly.

finally.

Potter burned all the bodies in a fire.

The ashes, mixed with a pile of lava melted by flames, were cast into the top of a small hill 2 kilometers from the shore.

Sherlock, who had been an artist in his early years, stepped in.

He wove a simple Hunter's Guild sign out of vines and placed it on the pile of rocks that had a wild and untamed feel.

"This should be the Hunter Association's first man-made building on the Dark Continent."

Sherlock smiled and looked at his daughter with a smug expression.

Kido mercilessly criticizes:

"You're not a hunter anymore."

In short, as Sherlock said.

The Hunter Association represents modern humans.

On the dark continent, the first building, and also the first tomb, was built with the corpses of fallen comrades and enemies.

The group returned to the Purple Smoke.

All the luggage and equipment were taken down.

Mo Laowu dug a huge pit on the spot and buried the ship in it to prevent them from finding that the stranded Ziyan had been carried away by the ocean current when they returned.

"According to the New World Chronicles, we should be on the southeast coast of the Dark Continent. Heading north will lead us to the Labyrinth City, which contains herbs that can cure all diseases."

Jin addressed the crowd, giving them instructions:

"While capturing Byard is important, our primary task remains finding Vanilla and bringing [Hope] back to Lake Möbius."

"Secondly, our route was planned based on the book 'Travels in the New World: East,' published three hundred years ago. With the passage of time, no one knows whether this route is still feasible."

"If we have to take a detour, we need to be careful. To our east, there is a large swampy area where the demonic creature 'Hellbell' that spreads murderous intent roams. We need to be extremely cautious."

After giving all the instructions...

The group then marched northwards at full speed.

After traveling for about a day, something extremely strange happened that forced the convoy to stop.

Diya looked up without speaking, her face ashen.

The others didn't perform much better than him; they all looked utterly shocked.

Before them stood a colossal tree that seemed to reach into the clouds, its trunk estimated to be nearly a thousand meters wide.

On the trunk of the giant tree, a blood-soaked, giant python, resembling a winding mountain range, was skewered like small fish on a barbecue skewer.

It was that sea king that intended to attack them.

It had been dead for some time, its pupils pecked out, and it stood with its head held high, howling at the sky. The blood that flowed out stained the land for miles around dark red.

Even in death, the terrifying aura emanating from its body still instilled fear in the onlookers; all of them combined were no bigger than a single scale on this sea king.

The surroundings were eerily quiet.

It was completely different from the rich ecosystem that Diya and her group had seen on their journey.

Right at this moment!

A blanket of darkness descended without warning, and everyone instinctively looked up—

A terrifying, grotesque face that resembles neither human nor inhuman.

It exuded a suffocatingly malevolent aura, dominating the entire sky!

The monster's face had a huge, iron-blue bird's beak, tightly closed, from which a long river of bloody liquid slid down, like a long red tongue, hanging straight down from the sky.

Darkness and shadow finally intertwined.
