Hunter x Hunter: From Obtaining the World to Beyond Heaven

'What?!'

Kuroro's pupils contracted.

He was well aware of Peeling Ripper's strength; although he didn't often take action, he was definitely not weak.

But despite this peeling and tearing, the man fell into a coma without any struggle!

Is it mind control or poison?

I can't understand it at all.

Kuroro didn't even consider the possibility that Peeling Ripper had been stunned, because it was simply impossible to simultaneously stun Peeling Ripper and launch an attack on him in such a short time.

But whatever it is, the ability to defeat the martial arts faction's Peeling Ripper in such a short time must be extremely valuable and practical!

'I want it so badly...'

A terrifying desire suddenly arose in Kuroro's heart; he wanted such a powerful ability too!

But despite his thoughts, he didn't slow down his escape at all, rushing towards the lying, flailing man in a few quick steps.

Since the coma of the Peeling Ripper thwarted his previous plans, Kuroro had to come up with another idea.

He suddenly realized that they were now extremely close to the elevator.

So Kuroro quickly grabbed the Peeling Ripper, enduring the excruciating pain all over his body, and rushed towards the elevator!

Just get there!

With the elevator shaft reaching a height of 300 meters, gravity will be their greatest asset in escaping!

The chances of escaping in a 300-meter vertical elevator shaft are much greater than in this narrow corridor.

At the elevator entrance, Kuroro was surprised to find the soldier who called himself Hal prying open the elevator door without turning his head!

'Who exactly is he...?'

Kuroro discovered something strange again—

This soldier actually chose to run away immediately. Which side is he on?

Without hesitation, the soldier opened the elevator door. At that moment, the elevator, which was originally stopped on the 27th floor, was plummeting to the ground 300 meters away due to the power outage!

The elevator doors opened, revealing a dark elevator shaft, from which came the gradually diminishing sound of the elevator rubbing against the walls.

The man suddenly turned around, revealing a sinister smile, and then leaped into the elevator shaft!

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in from behind!

Kuroro's heart skipped a beat. With lightning speed, he raised the book in his right hand to defend himself. His [Thief's Ultimate] technique was impervious to physical attacks...

tear-

Kuroro's expression froze instantly.

The cover of the book in his hand was torn open from top to bottom by a gleaming white scalpel!

Looking up along the scalpel, there was a strange person dressed in white sterile clothing.

On the helmet of the sterile suit, a pair of beautiful green eyes were visible through a transparent window, staring intently at Kuroro, and her entire body was also covered in a thick layer of [Iron] that drew attention.

It is indeed Qiduo!

Chapter 76 Cold Shot! × Kuroro's Bitter Struggle (Seeking First Subscription 6/6)

'A materialized weapon capable of destroying Nen creations! We can't let her continue to damage [Thief's Ultimate]!'

Kuroro swiftly pulled back the book, his left leg whipping out like a whirlwind as he lashed out at the attacker's abdomen, attempting to create distance.

boom!

A dull thud sounded, as if a log had been kicked. Qi Duo had already lowered his center of gravity, and his energy was precisely gathered in his abdomen.

Kuroro's unexpected kick only made her take a few steps back to the side, but it did not change her desire to attack in the slightest!

Dia, who was not far away, had already noticed that the two had started fighting.

To his slight relief, it seemed that Qiduo was temporarily in the lead.

He could see the scene where Kido's "Scalpel" destroyed "Thief's Ultimate Skill," and Kuroro's confidence in using the book for defense showed that the book possessed at least some kind of indestructibility.

This makes sense, since it's an ability that can only be activated by holding the book in battle. It would be ridiculous if the book itself were as fragile as an ordinary book.

Wrapping the book in "Zhou" would also be a solution, but Kuroro clearly chose a simpler method: making the book itself indestructible.

However, Kido's "surgical knife" is a materialized weapon specifically developed to cut and destroy Nen abilities, and according to her, it consumed a huge amount of her energy.

but.

'I have to help her...'

Dia saw that Kuroro had been forced to abandon the Peeling Ripper and stay in the corridor to fight back, but he also used his superb physical skills and the sharp dagger to keep Kido at bay.

Dia was certain that, as time went on, Kuroro, with his superior physical skills and more ruthless methods, would win.

Upon seeing this.

Dia decisively pulled out her pistol, changed the magazine, raised the gun, and aimed in one smooth motion!

Despite the excruciating pain that still made his nerves tremble even with the enhancement of the Ripple Radar, his superhuman vision allowed him to accurately target his opponent.

Not far away, Kuroro used a right whip kick to force back Kido's heavy punch, a flash of killing intent in his eyes.

His left-hand dagger struck first, like a viper spitting its tongue, aimed straight at Qiduo's neck!

boom!

A bullet crackling with silver electricity suddenly appeared, transforming into an arc of light that pierced through the air and slammed into Kuroro's left hand.

'So heavy!'

The bullet's impact was immense, and Kuroro instinctively used the force to deflect the impact.

Thanks to the heavy [Strength] in his hand, the bullet was deflected by Kuroro after a very short spin, demonstrating his extremely high combat awareness and body control.

However, Kuroro's seemingly inevitable attack was unfortunately thwarted. Furthermore, Kuroro was astonished to discover that the bullet, which was clearly much more powerful, had actually dissipated a large portion of the [Firmness] in his hand!

Although it was only one part, it still had a significant impact on Kuroro during the intense battle.

Before Kuroro could adjust his posture and attack, Kita's ghostly figure was already close, and the scalpel, carrying a strong sense of pressure, went straight for Kuroro's neck!

An eye for an eye!

With no other option, Kuroro risked losing his balance, as if his foot had slipped, and his body suddenly tilted to the side, narrowly avoiding Kido's attack.

These are the martial arts techniques he learned in the Sky Arena.

But just as he dodged the first attack, the scalpel stabbed down from his upper right like the Grim Reaper!

'【Instant Teleport】Has a 15-second cooldown when used on yourself, 1 second remaining!'

Kuroro gritted his teeth, barely managed to kick the ground, and shifted his body backward to dodge Kido's scalpel.

Dia's sniper shot was perfectly timed, instantly putting the previously relaxed Kuroro in a difficult position!

But at this moment, the cooldown of [Instant Teleportation] ended, and Kuroro decisively activated his ability, secretly relieved.

Swish!

Qiduo's scalpel sliced ​​precisely through the air, but missed its target. She frowned, about to look up to observe the enemy's teleportation landing point.

A shadow had already appeared menacingly behind him!

A flash of cold light, and the dagger tore through the air, slashing viciously toward Qiduo's head!

Bang! Bang! Bang! —

Another burst of gunfire rang out. Taking advantage of the moment when Kuroro had his back to him, Dia emptied his magazine without hesitation!

Kuroro froze, alarm bells blaring in his mind. Without hesitation, he directed most of his thoughts toward the back of his head!

Immediately afterwards, he felt a pain in the back of his head, and the three bullets wrapped in [Metallic Ripple Spirit] spun around the back of his head.

Ignoring the pain, he forced his way to the side and dodged the remaining three bullets!

'No, their teamwork is too perfect!'

Kuroro's face was grim. One person was holding off another, while the other was firing sniper shots. Most of his abilities were useless in close combat, but the other side's coordination was incredibly smooth.

With this shift in power, his disadvantage is too great!

He could no longer worry about Peeling Man; he had to run away quickly and then find a way to come back and rescue him.

At the same time, Kido, who was about to launch an attack, had to tilt her body to avoid the three bullets that Kuroro had dodged, while also being secretly alarmed.

The person in front of her looked to be about the same age as her, but his combat skills and awareness were so proficient that it was as if he had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

Logically speaking, while there are few combat experts at this age, they are not exactly rare either, but the opponent's Nen ability is not bad either.

Although she is still far behind her, she is definitely one of the best.

Who is he?

Meanwhile, not far away, Dia felt the excruciating pain in his body gradually subsiding over time, and the golden [World] had already appeared beside him, helping Dia suppress all his madness.

"call--"

Dia breathed a sigh of relief; the excruciating pain in her body had lessened to a tolerable level. So, what followed was—

【practice】!

The [training] that had been unable to maintain due to the excruciating pain erupted once more, and terrifying energy swept wildly toward Kuroro at the other end of the corridor!

'He can still fight!?'

Kuroro's heart sank. Although the woman in the sterile suit in front of him had poor combat skills, her basic skills and Nen abilities were very advanced, making her extremely difficult to deal with.

He had already caught a glimpse of the man kneeling at the end of the corridor out of the corner of his eye during the battle.

'That person must be the one who launched the unknown attack just now. Such domineering ability can't come without a price; they probably won't be able to mount a fighting force again tonight or even for the next few days.'

This was Kuroro's thought until that powerful aura appeared.

But now, his predictions have been shattered yet again...
