Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World

Moreover, it can possess up to three dolls at the same time!

Should we strike at him first?

Was he planning to eliminate the seemingly weaker version of himself first, so that his opponent could focus all their efforts on Hisoka? Or was he testing the waters?

The powerful psychic projectiles were continuously fired at Lynn, as if he were facing a Gatling gun that was firing. In a short time, a large number of psychic projectiles flew towards Lynn.

Seeing this, Lynn didn't need to expend much effort to dodge them all.

As the shadowy figure attacked Lynn, the other puppets he had just summoned were not idle either. They all rushed towards Hisoka, preparing for a righteous "gang fight".

The scene was a dazzling display of all kinds of attacks, such as Uvogin's Super Destruction Punch, which created a huge crater with each strike; Feitan flying around the field, making it difficult to catch his movements with the naked eye; and Machi's Nen threads dancing between her hands, forming a net that stretched out from the sky.

Although the quality was slightly inferior, the quantity made up for it.

Hisoka could only keep waving playing cards and attacking from bizarre angles with his chewing gum-like Nen. Overall, he seemed to be struggling.

Lynn estimated that Mianying's strength was at least A- level.

The shadow stared intently at the unharmed Lynn, his expression somewhat surprised, but then he threw his head back and burst into wild laughter.

"Hahaha, anyone who can act with Hisoka is definitely not weak."

"Hisoka, I really have to thank you. Not only did you send yourself here, but you also brought along a pretty strong guy."

After a brief pause, the figure laughed wildly, his face appearing even more ferocious and sinister, as if he had already decided that Hisoka and Lynn were both his for the taking.

"You seem to be thanking me a little too soon, or rather, I should be thanking you~"

Lynn said with a deep look in his eyes, "If you really think about it, Mianying is a really good person. You would have lost some things without him."

The shadowy figure didn't quite understand, and ignored what Lynn was pointing at, continuing to attack Lynn.

His left hand continuously unleashed psychic projectiles, while his right hand was constantly spinning and charging up power.

This is Phinks' Nen ability from the Phantom Troupe: [Rejuvenation].

You can concentrate your energy in your arms, and the more times you rotate your arms, the more powerful your punch will be.

Seeing that Franklin's dual machine guns were not working, Mianying decided to try using Phinks's Reversal.

Lin Enyi was skilled and daring, so she quietly watched the shadowy figure spin his arms, wanting to see how many times he could spin.

It's estimated that Mianying thinks his strength is on par with Hisoka's, and he's still very confident.

Little did he know that the difference in strength between Hisoka and him was far greater than a little.

Chapter 142 A-Rank Clay Doll! The Strongest Rookie, Lynn!

One lap, two laps, three laps... Before long, Mianying felt a sharp pain coming from his right arm; this was his limit.

If you keep spinning like that, not only will you not be able to hit the ball, but your arm will also be ruined.

Fortunately, he had spun around quite a few times. Looking at the massive amount of spiritual energy accumulated on his arm, which resembled a dazzling fireball radiating light, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

Then he stomped on the ground and rushed towards Lynn like an arrow, his right hand shooting at Lynn like a cannonball!

"go to hell!"

Seeing this, Lynn remained expressionless, simply drawing Hyōrinmaru with his backhand. A flash of light appeared, accompanied by a loud collision, as his fist and the blade clashed together.

Peng!

A powerful wave of energy surged outwards, making the figure's coat flutter loudly, and the light of his spiritual energy illuminated his terrified expression.

How could it be... so easily caught!

He merged with the Phinks puppet and spun around several times using the "Rotation" technique. Even Hisoka couldn't possibly withstand that attack head-on!

Enhancement type, and a powerful enhancement type at that! Mianying thought subconsciously.

Lynn flicked his wrist, sending Hyōrinmaru soaring upwards. The immense force forced Mianying back several meters before stopping, her feet leaving two straight scorch marks on the ground. Then, Lynn pointed a finger at Mianying and said expressionlessly, "Again."

Upon hearing this, Hisoka's face darkened.

That sounds familiar.

At this moment, Mianying's brain was buzzing, his pupils trembled as he looked at Lynn, and a thought that he could hardly accept surged into his mind.

His previous ideas were all based on the premise that Lynn's strength was inferior to Hisoka's, or at most equal to Hisoka's.

But what if it isn't?

Judging from that attack, he's definitely no match for Lynn in a head-on confrontation... Run!

It only took Mianying a fraction of a second to accept that she was inferior to him and to make up her mind to run away as soon as possible.

The world is vast, but nothing is more important than your own life and safety!

As a sneaky old man who loves to hide and make "figures", Mianying deeply understands that the most important thing is to be alive.

As long as you're alive, there's hope; conversely, when you're dead, you lose everything.

The next moment, the figure feigned anger, pulled an unknown doll from his pocket, merged with it, and his aura burst forth. His right arm continued to rotate as he roared, "Who do you think I am? How could I possibly lose to you!"

Mianying thought to herself, "With his posture, anyone would think he's about to unleash his power."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure turned and fled in the opposite direction at top speed, while the puppets such as Uvogin, Nobunaga and others stayed behind to restrain Lynn and Hisoka.

To save his life, he was willing to abandon the precious doll.

Lynn watched the figure disappear into the distance, unsurprised.

Based on Mianying's previous performance, it would be strange if she didn't run away now.

The puppet that the shadow chose to merge with seemed to be able to speed up, and in just a short while, he had widened the gap considerably.

Lynn raised his hand to block the fake Uvogin's attack and slashed him back with a slash. Then, Machi, Feitan, Nobunaga and other puppets rushed towards him.

Faced with the overwhelming number of people, Lynn remained silent, but quietly opened the third door, and the aura emanating from it rose even higher.

The psychic energy, like a rushing river, accumulated in the Ice Wheel Pill, and a dense, bone-chilling cold suddenly erupted.

In an instant, the icy blue crescent-shaped sword energy whistled past, and the figures of the group of puppets suddenly froze, then were cut in half at the waist, exploding like fireworks.

Lynn wiped out all six puppets in an instant with just one move!

These puppets have no eyes, so their strength is only about 30% of the original owner's, generally only around B-level. In front of him, they can be dealt with as easily as cutting melons and vegetables with just one move.

Not far away, the fleeing figure sensed something and immediately realized that its puppet had been destroyed in an instant.

Startled, he fled without stopping, disappearing into the dense woods near the house and running into the deep mountains.

The reason he chose this house was not only because it was secluded enough, but also because it was next to a deep forest where people could easily get lost. In case of danger, he could just run into it.

But before he could run far, he was overtaken by Lynn, whose body was filled with powerful Nen energy. Lynn jumped down from the big tree in front of him, and Hyōrinmaru flicked him lightly.

In an instant, a chilling aura surged through the air, and countless icy frosts on the ground transformed into thickets of thorns, freezing the central figure into a lifelike ice sculpture with an extremely realistic expression of terror.

"Wow, that's quite a runner." Lynn said calmly, looking at the figure that could no longer run, and then turned to look at the card that the figure had dropped.

【Name: Clay Doll】

[Grade: A]

[Type: Ability Card]

[Background: One Piece]

[Introduction: Originating from a portion of the Paramecia-type Clay Fruit power from the One Piece world, its effects can be enhanced with development, specifically having two effects. Effect 1: Temporary Doll, consumes Nen to maintain the doll's existence. Effect 2: Permanent Doll, only requires initial Nen consumption, can exist indefinitely, but needs to absorb more than 90% of the original body; current maximum number that can be created: 3]

It wasn't in vain that he came all this way; Mianying gave him an A-grade card.

【Clay Doll】is derived from the 【Clay Fruit】 in the One Piece world. It is essentially only a part of the fruit's power, but it is enhanced on that basis.

He can create dolls that are exactly the same as those he has met.

However, the puppet's strength and abilities are related to the gap between his strength and that of the original, as well as his understanding of the original.

Lynn raised an eyebrow. Seeing that no one was around, it was a good environment for the experiment. He immediately activated the card, and with a slight thought, a large amount of milky white clay appeared in his hands. A moment later, Hisoka, made of clay, appeared in front of him.

From the outside, it is indeed exactly the same as Hisoka, even the pattern on the clothes is identical.

"Punch me," Lynn said bluntly.

The Hisoka puppet was very obedient. It raised its hand and threw a straight punch, which Lynn easily caught, giving him a rough estimate of the puppet's strength.

Hisoka's strength is A- rank, while this puppet is only B rank.

The Hisoka doll then demonstrated "Boundless Love" and "Thin Illusion," which pleased Lynn considerably.

Although the puppet's strength is a bit lacking, it's worth it as long as it can use Nen abilities. Of course, the effectiveness of the Nen abilities will also be affected, and it can't compare to the original body.

He bears all the Nen expenditure of the temporary puppet. If the Hisoka puppet is just doing normal activities, then it only needs to maintain the basic Nen consumption. However, if it enters a battle state or even uses Nen abilities, it will consume a lot of Nen.

But there is some good news as well.

The puppet is essentially made of clay, so when he cut off Hisoka's arm, what was exposed was a viscous clay cross-section, not normal flesh and blood. The arm also turned into clay after falling to the ground.

Even if a puppet is beheaded, it can still grow a head and continue fighting, at the cost of consuming Nen energy.

Lynn casually removed the Hisoka doll and instead created the Netero doll.

The difference between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

If the Nen he used to create the Hisoka puppet was 5 points, then the Nen he used to create the Netero puppet would have been 50 points, almost ten times that of Hisoka.

Lynn made Nitro in five seconds.

There are still no flaws in appearance, and the strength is also very impressive, with A-rank strength, but unfortunately, he cannot use Nen.

This is roughly the maximum number of puppets he can create.

The puppet's strength will not exceed his current strength.

With his current Nen ability, he can only maintain a maximum of two A-rank puppets, and only one in battle mode.

In summary, temporary dolls can use Nen abilities, and their strength is lower than or equal to that of the original. They can expend Nen energy to regenerate limbs. However, if the difference in strength between the doll and the original is too great or if the doll does not have a sufficient understanding of the original, the doll's strength will be much weaker, and it will be difficult for it to use Nen abilities.

However, this is not something that cannot be changed.

The clay dolls also retain some of the characteristics of Devil Fruits, and their potential can be increased with continuous use and development.

He can also create more perfect dolls by improving his own strength and deepening his understanding of others.

Perhaps in the future he will be able to create a doll with exactly the same strength and abilities as the original, or even surpass it.

Thinking of this, Lynn suddenly remembered his Sharingan. The three-tomoe Sharingan could greatly [see] and [imitate] others, which was a great ability to deepen understanding.

From now on, he can activate his Sharingan to observe others, memorize every detail of them, and make making dolls easier and more perfect.

The Sharingan combined with a Nendoroid makes for a perfect clone!

As the number of cards increased, they could be combined in various ways. After careful consideration, Lynn thought of the [Fantasy Simulation Helmet].

In reality, he may not be able to meet more people or gain specific insights, but he can observe his opponents in simulated battles and then create dolls in reality afterward.

In particular, with the helmet upgrade, there may be opponents from other worlds, so the puppets he can create will no longer be limited to the Hunter world.

However, this can only create temporary dolls.

The permanent doll needs to absorb the bodies of others, which sounds similar to the [Imitation Doll] he used on Illumi before.

Lynn snapped out of his daze and his gaze fell on the face that had turned into an ice sculpture.

Isn't this an excellent target for a permanent doll?

Putting aside his strength, his Nen ability, God's Puppet, was truly impressive. He had considered keeping him and using the [Enemy Controller] to make him a puppet in the future.

But having to spend at least one A-grade card made him feel it wasn't worth it.

Fortunately, we can now transform the Shadow's corpse into a permanent puppet. We'll use him as the first test subject, and later we can indirectly use the [God's Puppet] through him.

In a split second, Lynn came up with the old trick.

He controls the shadow puppet, which in turn controls the puppet's movements, allowing him to easily detach himself from the puppet's body, making him impossible for anyone to find.

The ice melted quickly.

With a wave of his hand, Lynn devoured the masked figure with clumps of clay, which then transformed back into the masked figure. The masked figure was of B-rank strength and could also use Nen abilities.

Because they devoured and utilized the original corpses, permanent dolls bleed normally when injured, and their body structure is the same as that of normal people. However, this also means that they cannot regenerate limbs after being severed; once they die, they are gone forever and cannot be remade.
