Two Realms: Hunters and Pirates

"Jack, Zane, you two go to the side first. I'm going to deal with this old man by myself."

It's unclear whether Zane's arrival made Killua want to tone down his childish behavior, or if it was the competitive spirit stirred up during the earlier snatching.

In the ensuing ball scramble, Killua prepared to take the field alone.

Zane and Jerry naturally had no objection to this.

The two retreated to the sidelines and sat down.

"Oh? Is he getting serious with that look? Very well, let me see how good the new generation of Zoldyck successor is now." Netero looked at Killua, who had put on a serious face, with great interest.

Footsteps moved.

Killua, who had his sights firmly locked on Netero, did not rush forward rashly. Instead, he began to move around Netero.

Limb flexion!

Killua's steps appeared steady and slow, but they soon changed.

As Killua circled around, he created numerous afterimages, making it difficult to discern which one was the real one.

"Wow, so many Killua!"

Sitting next to him, Gon stared wide-eyed, constantly searching for the real Killua in the afterimage.

Zain, standing to the side, was also observing intently.

"The assassination technique passed down by the Zoldyck family, this limb bending move is quite similar to my [Slow as a Forest], both using afterimages to confuse the enemy."

Although the moves are similar, there are still quite a few differences in the details. Hmm...not bad, I've learned something.

With his exceptional eyesight, Zane quickly spotted Killua's true form from the afterimage and was quite satisfied after observing him closely.

There's nothing shameful about secretly learning.

The key is the method of learning by stealing.

Stealing knowledge through despicable means is shameful.

But the fact that he can learn by observing openly and honestly using his own eyesight is what makes him so skilled.

brush!

Killua, having mastered the art of limb bending, kept searching for Netero's weakness, but the result was naturally impossible.

After frowning, Killua finally decided to launch a full-scale attack. He suddenly accelerated, turning into a blur and appearing instantly near Netero.

stealth!

This is yet another assassination technique passed down through the Zoldyck family.

Faced with Killua's high-speed movement.

Netero seemed oblivious, but when Killua reached for the ball in his hand, he suddenly crouched down, causing Killua to miss completely.

"Why?"

Killua was startled and quickly spun around to steady himself. Then, without any hesitation, he turned around and kicked the ball again.

"Too slow!" Netero chuckled, flipping his hand to easily dodge Killua's attack while holding the ball.

"You old geezer!"

After failing twice, Killua couldn't help but curse under his breath, and at the same time, he felt anxious.

In particular, he discovered that the opponent had not used his right hand or left foot at all during his offensive.

He kept pushing off with his feet.

Killua continued to use his stealth footwork to advance, but each time the ball would disappear from his sight.

"Damn it, since that's how it is, then I'll make sure you can't move anymore."

Finding an opportunity, Killua abandoned his attack on the ball and instead went straight for Netero's lower body, finally delivering a powerful sweeping kick to Netero's right shin where he was standing on one foot.

"Ouch, that hurts!!"

Killua's smile froze, and he fell to the ground, rolling around on the floor clutching his right foot that had been kicked out.

"That was a clean and decisive strike. An ordinary person would probably have had their leg bone shattered by now," Netero commented on Killua's attack.

Given his reaction speed, it would have been very easy for him to dodge just now.

However, he still gave the other party a chance and took the opportunity to take further measurements.

"Ouch, that old man's feet are as hard as iron!" After the pain subsided, Killua looked at Netero, who was waiting leisurely in the arena, with resentment.

But there's nothing I can do even if I'm unwilling to accept it.

Killua limped around and walked toward Zane and Gon.

"Is it time to switch hands?" Seeing Killua approaching, Gon energetically prepared to step forward.

"Wait, Gon, let Zane go first." Killua quickly stopped him when he saw Gon's expression.

Zane looked at Killua, who had recommended him, with a half-smile, stood up and said, "Alright, I'll go first then!"

After saying that, he took off his shirt, revealing his well-defined and muscular physique, and strode into the arena.

"Killua, why did you let Zane go first?" Gon looked at Killua, who had returned, with some disappointment.

"Ah, well, I just wanted to see Zane's strength. After all, didn't you say that Zane and Hisoka fought in the first test and that Zane was very strong?" Killua, who plopped down next to him, explained.

While exploring on the airship, he had already asked Xiao Jie in detail about the first test.

In addition to confirming that the person Hisoka fought was indeed Zane, they also subtly inquired about Zane's strength and performance.

However, seeing is believing.

Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally didn't mind seeing Zane's strength for himself.

Of course, besides that, it's also for the purpose of sharing hardships.

He just made such a fool of himself, how could he let Zain escape unscathed?

Thinking of this, Killua glanced at Zane in the arena, a wicked smile creeping across his face.

In the field.

"Are you ready, President?"

Zane, who had come close, jumped around to stretch his body, then looked intently at Netero opposite him.

"Anytime!" Netero held the ball in front of him, pointing it at Zane with a provocative look.

The Art of War: Killing Fist - Swift as the Wind!

Upon receiving confirmation, Zain did not hesitate at all; he immediately transformed into a gust of wind and vanished from the spot.

Wow, so fast!

Killua, who was initially watching the show, had a change in expression when he saw Zane's burst of speed.

At this moment, Zane's speed undoubtedly surpasses that of Killua.

brush!

His figure flashed.

Zain appeared instantly beside Nitero, his right hand moving even faster, already grabbing the ball from Nitero's hand.

"Not bad!"

Nitero raised an eyebrow at Zain's speed, then immediately grabbed the ball at an even faster pace to avoid it.

Clearly, Zane's speed did not escape Netero's notice.

Having failed to steal it, Zane didn't stop there and went straight for the target.

His hands became afterimages, as if dozens of arms had suddenly appeared, enveloping Netero.

Netero moved left and right, using incredible reflexes and angles to keep Zane from grabbing him.

The Art of War: Killing Fist - Its Speed ​​is Like a Forest!

Push off with your feet.

Following his hands, which became afterimages, Zane's body also created a series of afterimages.

In an instant.

More than a dozen Zane suddenly appeared in the field, completely surrounding Netero.

Afterimages and afterimages.

The scene resembled a group of young people brutally beating an elderly person.

"What's going on?"

On the sidelines, Gon didn't even mention it, but Killua was already dumbfounded.

This stems not only from the similarity between Xu Rulin and Li Qu, but also from the strength that Zane has demonstrated.

Although Zane was unable to take the ball from Netero, the speed and afterimages he displayed were already making it difficult for Killua to see him clearly.

In other words, if Zane were to face off against Killua, Killua would definitely be overwhelmed by Zane.
