Six-Eyed Sukuna, starting from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 95 Reencounter with an Old Friend

A week later, the airship was still flying over the sea.

Su Wu looked down at the shimmering, emerald-like sea through the transparent glass beneath her feet, and then knocked down the tower she had built.

"How much longer until we arrive?"

He looked at the scattered playing cards and asked without turning his head.

Although life on the airship was leisurely, with plenty of food and entertainment, Su Wu couldn't stand being idle in the same place for too long.

He's not a shut-in; otherwise, he wouldn't be flying around to participate in all sorts of competitions, big and small, both domestically and internationally, while also attending anime conventions and posting videos online.

"It will probably take about a week to reach the area where the first target is located..." Maro mentally estimated the distance and time before answering.

A week...

"The airship is so slow..." he sighed weakly.

Two days later, Maro received a phone call.

"My lord..." After hanging up the phone, he looked at the white-haired boy, his tone somewhat strange.

"The crystal feather has been found."

"I heard it was a gift from several gangs." Maro's eyes were first filled with doubt, then filled with admiration.

They must have been captivated by the adult's charisma! They want to get along well with the adult!

They didn't consider that the other party might just be trying to avoid death.

"They said as long as I provide an address, they'll arrange for someone to deliver it right away," Maro said excitedly.

He was happy for the adult who got what he wanted!

However, the white-haired boy only had a calm expression with a hint of contemplation.

Are gangsters really this nice?

"Do they still have liquid ore, white fire, and rainbow eggs?" Su Wu asked excitedly.

Ideally, these generous gangsters would gather all seven beauties for him at once.

"...Liquid ore might exist, but White Flame and Rainbow Egg are both living things, so the possibility of them being present is..." infinitely close to zero.

Maro didn't say the rest, but Su Wu understood.

Because gangster collectors almost always collect inanimate objects, while White Flame only has value when it is alive.

Rainbow eggs are virtually unheard of.

"Then let's think of an address..." Su Wu crossed her legs and moved her hand resting on the armrest of the sofa.

There's no need to go to the original destination anymore, because those people are too sensible; they're so sensible that he doesn't even want to take action.

There was no enmity between them, and there was no need to kill them; the objective had already been achieved.

"The next liquid ore, it's said that it was mined in the mines of the Republic of Localio... but it's unclear now, and the exact location where it was mined is also unknown." Su Wu looked at her phone and tapped the screen a few times with her fingertip.

"Locario is also known as the Gem Kingdom, accounting for 65 percent of the world's gem production. Many of its residents make a living by mining..." Maro recalled the information about Locario.

"It is said that the first liquid mineral was discovered in the territory of Locario."

"The mafia also sent people to try to find it, but Locario... has a more primitive way of life." The subtlety in Maro's tone was obvious.

Locario doesn't prohibit guns, so almost every household owns one. Moreover, due to the gem mines, everyone is fierce and aggressive in order to protect their interests, and local armed gangs emerge one after another, making it impossible for outside gangs to defeat the local ones.

After losing some of their men, the gangs in the remaining areas gave up.

"They are the complete opposite of NGL, which is on the same continent," Maro said.

However, in NGL, foreign gangs simply can't get in; immigration is so strict that nobody wants to go through it properly.

"...Then I'd like to see just how formidable he really is." The white-haired boy raised an eyebrow with interest.

The airship changed direction in mid-air, altering its destination.

……

after a while.

Inside a tavern in Dori, a city on the edge of the Los Mountains within the Republic of Localio.

A white-haired boy sat at the bar, a rainbow-colored drink in front of him, which was said to contain one percent of rainbow fruit juice, so the colors were natural.

Naturally, this cup is quite expensive.

Many people have been casting glances at the boy because of that glass of wine.

"Sir, the goods have arrived." The blond youth, carrying a box, kicked open the tavern door and came in, looking travel-worn.

"That was pretty fast." Su Wu took the box and opened it immediately.

Inside the box was yet another box, wrapped up tightly.

Finally, after dismantling everything, a bird skeleton was revealed inside a glass box.

It is pure black, with a translucent light like crystal, so beautiful that it draws attention.

But that's all; most ordinary people have never even heard of such a thing.

The residents of Locario, having seen countless gems, merely glanced at the black crystal skeleton before looking away.

In the corner, a girl with golden braids stared intently at the skeleton in the boy's hand with her round blue eyes.

The Seven Beauties! That must be one of the Seven Beauties, Crystal Feather Bone!

Although it's not a gemstone, it's one of the Seven Beauties!

And that boy is someone we know, so perhaps...

Thinking this, the blonde girl lifted her skirt and walked towards the boy in a very cute manner.

Cute girls are bound to have good luck.

Given how adorable she is, she must have a very lucky day.

Su Wu glanced at the skeleton a few times but couldn't appreciate any beauty, so she casually handed it over to the system.

A hand silently reached out towards the transparent box containing the skeleton, but before it could actually touch it, the skeleton and the box vanished into thin air.

【The Crystal Feather Bone has been found.】The system displayed this message.

The energy progress bar in the corner looked like it had increased slightly.

"Ouch—" The girl, who had been tiptoeing closer but missed her target, fell to the ground, looking pitifully at the blond youth beside her with her watery eyes.

A handsome young man with blond hair and blue eyes—okay, she likes this one too.

Although the little boy is nice, he is still a bit too young.

While the blond youth still appears somewhat immature, his physique already falls within the adult range.

It possesses both mature and youthful charm, which is great and aesthetically pleasing, a plus!

Surely the other person wouldn't be like the white-haired boy, unable to appreciate this cute and beautiful girl.

He certainly wouldn't do something like cutting half of a beautiful girl's hair off! Hehe.

"I twisted my ankle and can't stand up. Carry me," the blonde girl said softly.

The blond youth stared at her with a troubled expression, frowning but saying nothing.

Su Wu silently turned her head away, covering the lower half of her face as she chuckled quietly.

Exactly the same! This familiar routine—the same act the other party performed with him in the desert back then.

Now you're just going to pretend you don't know him and put on the same act in front of him again, right?

Although the person he sees now is a normal little girl, he still can't forget the "muscle Barbie" he saw with the tarot cards.

What if Maro is swayed by the other party...

He could use this incident to mock the other person for the rest of his life.

Under the gaze of the blonde girl's endearing eyes, the blond youth frowned and spoke in a cold voice:

"Get out of the way, you're blocking my way."

Why was she standing between him and the adult? Was she trying to attract the adult's attention? That fall must have been intentional, right?! Ha, he'd seen this kind of trick many times before.

The blonde girl's expression froze instantly, and she turned into a gray sculpture as if she had been greatly shocked.

How could this be... another indifferent and ungentlemanly man?!

In a more secluded corner, a blond man wearing triangular sunglasses put down his wine glass. His wandering gaze occasionally fell on the boy, but he quickly withdrew it.

In the no-prize quiz segment, who is the last man?
