Two Realms: Hunters and Pirates

"I'm going!" Upon hearing his name called, Leorio quickly snapped out of his daze, unbuttoned his shirt, turned west, and strode onto the field with high spirits.

"come on!!!"

Zane and Kurapika both encouraged and cheered on Leorio.

Then, Zane glanced at Killua, who had fallen silent.

He has done all he can; the rest is up to the other party to choose.

The sixth match begins.

Leorio and Tonpa are evenly matched.

Leorio wins because of his youth and strength, while Tonpa has the advantage of being experienced.

Once the battle began, a unique and intense fight unfolded.

The reason it is described as novel is because it is groundbreaking.

It's certainly not because of their individual abilities.

Instead, Dongba prepared a lot of props.

His satchel was like a treasure chest.

One moment they throw out smoke bombs that release a foul odor, the next they scatter barbed wire, and then there's pepper spray and other stuff.

It's obvious that Dongba is a professional at killing off newcomers.

With a series of props, Leorio was made to look extremely disheveled.

However, Leorio's tenacity is beyond doubt.

No matter how many times he was pranked, Leorio never gave up.

In the end, their battle gradually turned into a protracted war.

Bang! Bang!

With two punches aimed at their faces, Leorio and Tonpa both fell backward to the ground, simultaneously losing consciousness.

Upon seeing this, the referee couldn't help but look towards where the president was.

Netero stroked his beard and said, "Both examinees are unconscious, so this match ends in a draw. Once they regain consciousness, we'll have an overtime match!"

And so, Leorio temporarily left the stage.

Then came the seventh game.

"I...I give up!"

The referee had just announced the candidates' turn to compete when Killua, after a moment of silence, made his decision.

He knew very well that he could not be a match for his elder brother.

In addition to the influence of the Nen needles in his head, Killua simply didn't dare to face Illumi.

"Very good, Killua, you have indeed remembered my instructions to you: never fight an enemy you are not confident of defeating." To the surprise of the others, Illumi had already walked over.

He looked down at his younger brother, his words conveying a sense of relief, but his face remained indifferent.

Zain calmly watched the other person from the side.

Kurapika frowned as he looked at Illumi.

Even without knowing the details, he still sensed that Killua's older brother was suspicious.

Killua remained silent, his head bowed.

Illumi didn't seem to care, and continued, "Speaking of which, I was really shocked when you ran away from home. I heard you even injured Mom, and she was very touched by that."

But why did you come here? Do you want to become a hunter? No way, you're a born killer, why would you do something so pointless? Just like me, I'm here because of this job.

Alright, you've had enough fun out there. You can go home now. From now on, focus on becoming a professional assassin!

Every word Illumi uttered made Killua, who had his head bowed, clench his fist tighter.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he abruptly looked up.

"No, indeed, I initially only participated in the Hunter Exam out of boredom, but I've found a lot of fun here."

I'm fed up with killing. I... I want to be friends with Jack and Zane, and joke around with them normally!

Illumi said indifferently: "Impossible. How could someone like you make friends? Your judgment of people is only whether they can be killed or not. You don't think about anything else. After all, that's how your father and I raised you."

You think this way now only because it's new and exciting, like getting a new toy. But once you get tired of it, one day you'll inevitably want to test whether you can kill these people, after all, you're a born killer at heart.

"Hey, you bastard, I don't care if you're Killua's older brother or whatever, what kind of nonsense were you spouting just now!"

Leorio, who had just been awakened from his coma after receiving basic treatment from medical staff, overheard Killua and Illumi's conversation and immediately stood up despite his injuries.

Leorio, veins throbbing on his forehead, pointed at Illumi and berated him angrily. Then, turning to the bewildered Killua, he shouted, "Killua, don't listen to this bastard's nonsense! Gon, Zane, and we're already friends, aren't we?!"

Killua's body trembled.

friend?

So, I'm already friends with Xiao Jie and Zane!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~

Several Nen needles shot towards Leorio without warning.

He was intercepted halfway by a hand chop.

The needle broke and flew away.

"Oh, you're getting angry now, huh? But it's understandable. After all, how could someone like you, a cold-blooded killer at heart, possibly understand the bonds of friendship?"

Zane blocked the Nen needles from Illumi and stood in front of Leorio.

He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with coldness as he looked at Illumi.

Clang!

The scabbards fell to the ground, and beside Leorio, Kurapika solemnly drew his twin swords, locking his gaze firmly on Illumi in a state of readiness.

"Don't do anything reckless!"

Not far away, Hisoka held a playing card between his fingers, smiling as he watched the two opposing sides stand off, wisps of malice spreading towards Illumi.

Illumi stared at Zane, who was blocking his way.

At the same time, he also sensed Hisoka's malice coming from behind him.

"If you continue to attack other candidates, you will be immediately eliminated!"

Several men from the west who were responsible for maintaining order rushed over and warned Illumi.

"This is really troublesome. My upcoming job requires a Hunter License, and it would be troublesome if I were to fight you now. Oh right, I can just wait until the Hunter Exam is over before I make a move." Illumi tapped his chin with his index finger, pretending to be troubled, and then suddenly looked enlightened.

After saying that, he turned to look at Killua.

"Just quit the Hunter Exam and go home. If you're willing to go home right now, I might consider letting these people go." Illumi raised his hand and patted Killua's head.

Zain frowned as he watched the other person's actions.

This guy...

"I...I quit!" Killua's eyes had turned blank and dark at some point.

After leaving behind a single sentence, Killua, as if a puppet on a string, turned and left the examination room expressionlessly, leaving Leorio and Kurapika stunned.

"I've really seen something new today. I never thought that the so-called Zoldycks would have someone like you." Watching Killua's departing figure, Zane didn't stop him, but just coldly looked at Illumi opposite him.

The Nen that flowed when the other party touched Killua's head was definitely not fake.

Therefore, the reason why Killua suddenly gave up was most likely because the other party triggered the Nen needles in Killua's head and forcibly controlled him.

Because the spell was temporarily broken and Killua was not in mortal danger, Zane did not stop him.

But that doesn't mean he will remain indifferent.

Illumi glanced at Zane.

He didn't refute anything, and turned around to walk back to his original position.
