Two Realms: Hunters and Pirates

"They're definitely not easy to deal with!"

Despite repeated failed attempts to steal the item, Zain remained calm and instead praised Netero's performance.

The other party has a kind of back-to-basics image.

Although every move he makes is quite ordinary, he somehow manages to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Similar to Killua's idea.

Seeing that he couldn't get a touch on the ball, Zain changed his target instead of continuing to try to win the ball. Instead, he attacked Nitero's wrist, which was holding the ball.

The Art of War: Aggression Like Fire!

boom!

Deep footprints were trampled into the hard metal ground.

Zane's right arm seemed to transform into a cannon, and when he threw a punch, the fist was like a cannonball.

The friction between his fist and the air, combined with his unique technique, caused Zane's fist to erupt with scorching and fierce flames.

"What fierce punches!"

Netero, sensing Zane's punching style, narrowed his eyes and quickly reacted.

With a flick of his wrist, he created distance, while his right hand, which had been dormant until now, pointed like a sword and swiftly dodged Zane's fist, striking his wrist instead.

Bang! ! !

Zane jerked his wrist, and his punch immediately shifted, attempting to pull him away from Netero.

The Art of War: Immovable as a Mountain!

With his entire body's energy gathering and dispersing, Zane deflected the impact on his wrist at an incredible speed.

Without pausing after regaining his balance, he lowered his body and smoothly turned to deliver a roundhouse kick to Netero.

Seeing that Zane was able to deflect his attack, Netero raised an eyebrow and decisively leaped behind him.

Snapped!

The body, in its spiral, contracts like a spring.

It was Zane who keenly observed Netero's reaction.

He instantly changed his move, slamming his palms on the ground and unleashing a burst of energy. His entire body spun rapidly like a top, launching himself into the air while simultaneously kicking his opponent backward.

"Young people these days are really something!"

Netero inwardly praised him, but his movements did not slow down.

Faced with Zain's rapid series of kicks, he also began to use his left foot.

The two feet, which were leaping in mid-air, also kicked out.

Netero precisely blocked all of Zain's kicks with his foot, and even used the momentum to leap up and soar to the ceiling.

brush!

His figure flashed.

The instant Netero took flight, Zane once again unleashed his Swift as the Wind technique, appearing on the ceiling in a flash as well.

Snapped!

His right hand landed on the ball.

Zain not only relentlessly pursued Netero, but also never forgot his own objective.

At this moment, with a series of attacks, he finally touched the ball that Nitero had been holding in his left hand.

"It's not that simple!"

Netero's gaze swept over the ball that Zain had touched, and before Zain could snatch it back, his eyes suddenly turned serious.

boom!!

Nitero did not lose his balance at all despite being airborne.

He flipped his right leg and stomped hard on the ceiling.

With a dull thud, clear footprints were left on the metal ceiling.

Niterlo, using his strength, pushed the ball away from Zane's hand and crashed to the ground below.

boom!

Another dull thud.

Surprisingly, Zane, instead of being discouraged by missing his target, followed Netero's example and used the ceiling for leverage, continuing his pursuit as he plummeted.

Like a shadow following you.

In the blink of an eye, Zane and Netero were once again engaged in a chase.

The two moved faster and faster, eventually becoming two blurry phantoms that darted and weaved through the room.

"I can't see clearly. Zane and Chairman Netero are amazing. I can't see their movements at all." Gon, who had been watching intently, rubbed his sore eyes and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Killua, standing beside him, had a complicated expression.

He felt like a clown.

I didn't expect they wanted to drag Zane down with them and make him look bad.

The results of it.

Yes.

Like him, Zain was unable to take the ball away from Nitero.

But considering his performance just now...

How could Killua not have noticed that Netero was using both hands and feet?

"Tch, he's just relying on being older than me. When I get that age, I'll definitely be stronger than him." Killua raised his hand and bit his thumb, watching the battle intently while comforting himself with these thoughts.

..........

Zain ultimately failed to take the ball from Nitero's hands.

It can only be said that the title of the world's strongest human being is absolutely true.

Even if the strongest human in the world is old.

While Zain felt some regret, he wasn't too disappointed.

After all, his initial goal was simply to test the gap between himself and Netero.

Moreover, he did gain something from their encounter; he learned a great deal from Netero.

After Zane was eliminated, it was Jerry's turn.

The result, naturally, remained unchanged.

Although Xiao Jie's momentum forced Nitero to use his left foot, he still failed to win the ball.

The game of catching the ball continued until nearly dawn.

Eight o'clock in the morning.

The airship, which had been sailing for a day and a night, began to land.

"Hoo-ha~"

The examinees gathered at the exit, and Zane, who was standing with Leorio and the others, yawned.

After a night's rest, Leorio and Kurapika, feeling refreshed, turned around at the sound of noise.

When you see Zane looking sleepy, no, not just Zane, Gon and Killua are almost the same.

Seeing the three of them like this, Leorio asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Didn't you three sleep well last night?"

"Uh... I just went to bed a little late."

"We played a very interesting game with Chairman Netero last night."

"That was a mistake. I should have known better than to hang out with that old man."

Zane, Gon, and Killua all spoke up.

The three men's words left Leorio and Kurapika completely confused.

Just as the two were about to ask more questions, the airship's exit slowly opened.

A gust of wind swept in.

This not only interrupted Leorio and Kurapika's conversation, but also allowed all the test takers to clearly see the landing point in front of them.

It is not the ground.

The airship landed atop a towering building.

This building is not only towering, but also exceptionally spacious, making its top resemble a flat plaza.

Despite their doubts, the candidates disembarked from the airship one after another.

"Dear candidates, the starting point for the third test is here, at the top of what is known as the Trap Tower!"

Along with the test takers came the Bean Noodle Man.

As the candidates surveyed their surroundings, the Bean Man coughed lightly and began his explanation.

"A trap tower...?"

The test takers looked at the bean-faced man with even greater curiosity.

The Bean Man continued, "The passing condition for this test is to descend from the top of the tower to the ground within 72 hours."

Finally, the Bean Man announced, "Next, the third test will officially begin. I wish everyone the best of luck in passing."

After saying that, the bean-faced man turned and returned to the airship.

Watching the airship depart, the examinees exchanged glances and decisively began searching for a way to reach the ground.
