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

Netero's eyes widened in fury, like an angry Vajra, and his hands moved rapidly, unleashing one terrifying attack after another.

Even though every attack landed on the ice dragon, it still couldn't achieve significant results, and a brief balance was maintained for a time!

The ice dragon wanted to go further, but Netero's attacks prevented it from advancing.

But Netero's ninety-nine moves will eventually come to an end!

Before long, the Ninety-Nine Styles were exhausted, forcing Netero into a brief pause. Meanwhile, the Ice Dragon still had a rough outline and charged towards Netero!

boom!!

Netero was swallowed by the ice dragon.

The massive impact sent Netero flying backward.

Finally, it landed on the ground some distance away. The open space was now completely unrecognizable, replaced by a large crater, as if it had been hit by a meteorite, and filled with a chilling, icy aura.

Even now, the thick smoke and dust that billowed out has not completely dissipated, and some of it still lingers in the air.

All of this silently testifies to the intensity of the battle that had just taken place!

Lynn appeared in a flash and casually cleared away the smoke and dust.

In the large pit, Netero, dressed in tattered clothes and covered in dust, gave Lynn a slightly forced smile.

It looked like laughter, but also like crying.

How pathetic... to look like this in front of a junior.

Netero shook his head, glanced at the many wounds on his body, dusted himself off, and then jumped out of the crater.

After unleashing his ninety-ninth move, even Netero was struggling to keep up, his chest heaving as he gasped for breath.

Only at this moment did Netero appear like an old man.

If you ignored the wrecked and mangled scene around him...

Chapter 211 S-Rank Ryujin Jakka! A Cursed Treasure!

Netero looked at Lynn, who hadn't been hit, and sighed inwardly.

"Even the Ninety-Nine Styles couldn't hurt him..."

Netero could no longer remain calm. Did he have to use Zero to defeat Lynn?

With only half of his beard remaining, Netero trembled slightly, and he began to wonder if he was seeing things.

Putting aside the fact that Type Zero requires a lot of personal effort and may shorten one's lifespan.

The key point is that Netero's intuition tells him that even if he uses Zero, he most likely won't win this battle.

Seeing the obvious hesitation on Netero's face, Lynn across from him understood that the old man must have suffered a great blow.

Netero's attacks are very strong, that's absolutely true!

It's just that he's better than the other.

"Sigh... I'm getting old and useless."

"I lost."

Netero, ever magnanimous, quickly accepted the fact that the rising stars had surpassed him, an old man.

As soon as he finished speaking, he completely suppressed his imposing aura and returned to the appearance of an ordinary old man.

He ultimately failed to use Zero and openly admitted his defeat.

It wasn't that he was afraid of the consequences of using Zero, but rather that he felt his current condition was unfavorable.

Even using Zero Style wouldn't be enough to satisfy me!

Perhaps one day in the future, I can take some time to adjust my mindset, put on that outfit, and fight Lynn again?

Netero stroked his half-shaved beard, his bright eyes looking thoughtfully at Lynn.

The clothes he wanted were the "Heart T-shirts." Wearing those clothes meant that he would spend some time adjusting his state and unleashing his full fighting power.

Lynn was unaware that Netero had already planned to apply the same preferential treatment he received when dealing with the Ant King to himself.

At this moment, he was focusing his attention on the cards that had been dropped.

During the fight, he used effects like Gate of Babylon on Netero in an attempt to get cards, and his efforts paid off.

Name: Ryujin Jakka

[Rank: S-]

[Type: Item Card]

[Background: Death]

[Introduction: Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's Zanpakuto. Its ability is to release flames and manipulate them to scorch or explode enemies. It is the strongest and oldest fire-type Zanpakuto, and is said to possess the strongest attack power in Soul Society.]

Another S-rank card!

This is his third S-card to date.

The first item, the "Doctor's Suitcase," is purely auxiliary.

The second image, "Immortal Body," has a wide coverage and focuses on a comprehensive approach.

This third card is purely offensive.

Ryujin Jakka is undoubtedly one of the top Zanpakuto in Bleach. As Yamamoto's sword, it is said to have the strongest attack power.

Each strike unleashes a blazing inferno that seems capable of burning everything, and in most works, flames represent destructive power.

Ryujin Jakka arrived just in time; he was in dire need of fire-based abilities.

This not only filled its own gaps, but also brought something big.

From then on, he had three different types of attack methods: fire (Ryujin Jakka), grass (Tokiwa Power), and ice (Hyourinmaru, Yuki Onna Possession, Ice Shape Magic), which was enough to deal with most situations where the element was weak against him.

For example, if he encounters gold or silver ingots again, he can finish the battle with a single strike using Ryujin Jakka, which requires less effort.

Furthermore, Ryujin Jakka can be fed to Yoto Hime to promote her leveling up.

Yaodao-hime is currently only A+ rank. It may take a lot of time for her to absorb the S-rank Ryujin Jakka, but it will definitely bring a huge improvement, and she may even be able to break through to S-rank in one fell swoop!

Sure enough, it's still more satisfying to fight these S-class powerhouses.

Not only did he enjoy playing, but he also enjoyed seeing the rewards.

Moreover, he just officially defeated the world's strongest player, Netero.

Although Netero's strength has declined considerably compared to his earlier days, he is still nominally the strongest in the world, so that's not entirely wrong.

Thinking of this, Lynn smiled broadly again.

I hope there will be more good things like this.

After their sparring session, the two returned to Netero's dojo.

Taking this opportunity, Netero planned to teach Lynn the "Heart Drop Fist," one of the few things he could do to defeat Lynn—technique.

Lynn's strength is undeniable, but he's a little lacking in technique.

This doesn't mean he's bad; it's just that Lynn's strength has grown too fast, making his skills seem mismatched with his abilities. In reality, his talent is already quite terrifying.

Netero remembered that when he was Lynn's age, he hadn't even scratched the surface of "momentum," while Lynn had already mastered both "fist momentum" and "sword momentum."

Their level of strength even surpasses that of their level of skill.

All he could do was help Lynn master the Heart Drop Fist more quickly, so that he would be able to demonstrate even greater strength after succeeding.

Seeing that he still had some time, Lynn stayed at the dojo for two days, learning the Heart Drop Fist from the old man and sparring with him.

His overall strength is weaker than Netero's, but he is slightly better when he opens five gates and far superior when he opens six gates. In this state, Netero is just right to be his sparring partner.

The old man was also very happy.

After all, it's not easy to find such a fresh and enthusiastic opponent. He was overjoyed to have finally met a good opponent like Lynn, so how could he refuse?

So the old man and the young man had quite a few exchanges over the next two days.

Both of them were having a great time, but the mountain and the forest on it didn't seem to care much. In just two days, the mountain had been completely destroyed.

Just as Lynn was about to get up and leave, she received an unexpected phone call.

"Yes, I'll be there." With that, Lynn hung up the phone.

Directly opposite him, Netero, who was sipping tea, put down his cup and casually asked, "Was that a call from the Sky Arena?"

"Yes, the biennial martial arts tournament at the Sky Arena is about to begin."

"I was invited by the authorities to make an appearance."

Although he is now the highest-ranking player in the Sky Arena, after defeating his predecessor, he now has access to the 251st floor.

However, because he did not participate in the previous martial arts tournament, his title is only the strongest landlord, not the champion of the martial arts tournament.

“Hehe, so we’ll meet again.” Netero blinked and laughed. “I’ll be attending every martial arts tournament as a guest, I think it’s in April? About six months from now.”

Lynn glanced at the grinning Netero and thought to himself that the old man probably wouldn't be laughing then.

If nothing unexpected happens, this martial arts tournament will not proceed smoothly.

At that time, Netero's old friend, Jade, who was once the dark side of the Hunter Association, will sacrifice his soul to the Demon King to be resurrected, and then bring his subordinates to seek revenge.

After all, the biggest target is Nitero.

Speaking of Jade, he's quite a strong player, and he might even reach S-rank, so this is an opportunity not to be missed.

Lynn was unaware that his casual act was the wish of countless people.

Although everyone knows that Lynn is very strong, he once defeated the previous champion of the martial arts tournament in front of everyone.

But everyone wants to see Lynn truly become the champion and receive the trophy that is worthy of him.

The Sky Arena's management was understandably apprehensive about this.

They were afraid that Lynn might not participate in this year's martial arts competition.

Lynn himself had no idea about this, but as the officials of Sky Arena, they were well aware of how influential and popular Lynn was now.

The Sky Arena usually has stalls selling merchandise featuring popular players. The money from these sales is shared with the poster, which is one of their sources of income.

Among the most displayed items, the one with the most merchandise is undoubtedly the Sky Arena's golden signboard—Lynn!

How exaggerated?

On weekdays, most of the stall is filled with Lynn's merchandise, while the number of other merchandise items is pitifully small.

Sometimes, Lynn's merchandise is even in short supply, with many items selling out as soon as they're put on display.

On the contrary, the few other peripheral items were ignored and remained there unattended.

This shows just how popular Lynn is.

If this were to be revealed now, Invincible Lynn would not participate in this year's martial arts tournament, resulting in a devastating loss.

Fortunately, Lynn was planning to acquire Jade's cards and accepted the Sky Arena's invitation.

This delighted the top executives, who immediately allocated a large amount of funds to publicize the news.

They want everyone across the six continents to know that Lynn will be participating in this year's martial arts tournament!

A legendary figure from the Sky Arena.

Lynn, hailed as the "strongest," is about to participate in this martial arts tournament!

Although there are still six months to go, the Sky Arena has already started building hype in order to create the most popular martial arts tournament in history.

Lynn didn't care about these things. He knew that all of this was due to his strength, and he didn't need to worry about anything else.

As long as he perseveres, he will not lack anything else, including fame, status, and power...

After spending two days at Netero's dojo, he set off again for the destination he had agreed upon with Galo and the others.

Yingren Kingdom is a small island, and even the capital is not far from the coastline. All the cities are like coastal cities.

Therefore, Yingren Kingdom had a relatively continuous coastline.
