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

Jade was a contemporary of Netero and was once the leader of the Hunter Association's secret unit, "Shadows."

He is in charge of all sorts of dirty business that cannot be revealed, and he and Netero work in the open and in the shadows respectively, and they are each other's important friends.

Like Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura from Naruto.

They had fought, and Netero won. They flipped a coin again, and Netero still won. In the end, Jade accepted becoming Netero's shadow and dealt with all sorts of dark things.

However, as the Shadow's actions became increasingly extreme, Netero and his team were forced to launch a purge to eliminate the Shadow.

So Jade died many years ago, but now he has come back to life.

That was accomplished by those three henchmen.

Although they were called subordinates, the three were actually descendants of the "Shadow" unit.

Netero's original intention was simply to dismantle the "Shadow," but some people disobeyed him, killing or imprisoning the descendants of the Shadow members, leaving only these three to escape.

Since then, they have harbored great malice towards the Hunter Association, and their only wish in life is to destroy the Hunter Association.

Later, they successfully found a way to bring their leader Jade back to the human world: by making a deal with the Demon King, Jade sacrificed his own soul to be resurrected.

Their goal this time is not only to resolve the conflict between Netero and the Hunter Association.

Furthermore, we must expose the dirty deeds of the Hunter Association and even V5 and other countries to the whole world, so that people know what they have done.

Those events were recorded in the Dark Record Book.

It not only contains the dark side of the Hunter Association, but also a series of sordid deeds by countries like V5.

Not only must we defeat the enemy, but we must also utterly ruin their reputation.

Lynn was not interested in these old stories.

He was only curious about two things.

First and foremost is the ability to complain!

Only Jade and his three companions have demonstrated this ability.

[Resentment] is the opposite of [Thoughts], and this is a capability that only exists under extreme circumstances.

The abilities of resentment and psychic power manifest in completely opposite ways in many situations.

The power of resentment requires setting a mandatory task and making a vow to oneself, and then using this as power is called "resentment".

Without the constraints of the six major systems of "Nian," the more demanding one is of the tasks one sets for oneself, the greater one's power becomes.

It can be understood that the ability of resentment is the constraint and oath in the ability of Nen.

By imposing "must-do tasks" as restrictions, one can gain a powerful and suitable ability to vent their frustrations.

For Jade and his companions, their source of power lies in their necessity to eliminate the powerful constraint of the Hunter Association.

He was quite interested in this special ability and thought it was worth studying.

If used properly, it is equivalent to an enhanced version of constraints and oaths.

Furthermore, judging from the original work, this thing can be learned by others like "Nian," but it is quite dangerous.

【念】is a smooth road, long, but every step is solid, at most someone makes a constraint or vow to improve efficiency.

[Resentment] is an extreme downhill path; although one can run fast, one can easily fall and be shattered to pieces.

The second point is naturally the cards they dropped.

His primary focus was on Jade, who, strictly speaking, was the counterpart to Netero and was at least an S-class powerhouse.

Add to that his special resentment abilities and his experience of being resurrected... who knows what kind of cards he might get?

Lynn snapped out of his daze; the match had already officially begun.

……

The scene of the game.

"Let's welcome the contestants to the stage!"

"In the first match, Han Ji-ru will face off against Ji-hee!"

"This is a super heavyweight vs. heavyweight match."

With the commentator's signal, the competition began amidst applause.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the hungry ghost lifted his cloak, revealing his massive form to everyone.

The hungry ghost had blade-shaped hair, some blue and some white, and a fierce expression on its rugged face.

His hands were particularly large and thick, making him look like Popeye from the cartoon.

"This is!"

"It wasn't Han Jiru who appeared?"

"Who is he?"

Even the tour guide was confused. Wasn't Han Jiru supposed to be the one?

Who is this?

"Is this what they call the Sky Arena?"

"It seems pretty good."

As a pro-war demon, he loves this kind of fighting arena the most; just standing here fills him with fighting spirit.

The hungry ghost's bloodthirsty gaze swept around, finally settling on Ji-hee, who was standing in front of it in a fighting stance.

"Hopefully this will bring me some fun!"

Very strong!

Zhixi's body trembled, staring intently at the hungry ghost in front of him, and could only do his best to use [Refine] to resist the opponent's aura.

Although he didn't know who it was, he could sense that the other person was very strong.

"Good eyesight, but lacking in strength!" The Hungry Ghost laughed heartily, completely disregarding Ji-hee.

The next moment, in Ji-hee's dilated pupils, a fist filled with resentment flew towards her.

The terrifying resentment emanating from above made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, almost unable to move. He could only barely dodge it with all his might!

"How is this possible?!"

Bisji's expression was no longer calm as usual. Her eyes narrowed, and she stared at the hungry ghosts on the field with an extremely serious look.

The hungry ghost was entwined with countless black resentful energies, which were not the thoughts of death, but... resentment!

Seeing this strange power again reminded Bissage of the past.

Bisge's appearance makes it easy to overlook her real age.

In fact, as a senior member of the Heart Source School and a veteran hunter of the Hunter Association, she has lived for sixty years and can be considered a living fossil in the association, knowing some inside stories that are now unknown to others.

The Hunter Association used to have not only Chairman Netero in the public eye, but also Jade, who was in charge of the dark side.

The shadowy figures led by Jade are specifically responsible for doing shady things, cleaning up the messes for the Hunter Association.

However, what Jade and his gang did became increasingly excessive and extreme.

After several unsuccessful attempts to communicate, Chairman Netero had no choice but to deal with his old friend personally.

Logically speaking, the power of [Resentment] should have been dealt with by Chairman Netero and others.

Why did it appear again today?

A look of confusion flashed across Bisji's wine-red eyes; she couldn't quite understand how they had appeared.

beep, beep...

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps sounded, and the audience looked around and realized that they were inexplicably surrounded by robots!

"It seems something really has happened!"

Bisge glanced at the hungry ghosts on the field, then at the heavily armed robot squadron.

Even ordinary viewers have realized it now.

The Sky Arena has been invaded!

Are you kidding me? They paid for tickets to watch a fighting match, not to throw their money away to die!

What was the Sky Arena's security system doing, leaving spectators in such a dangerous situation? Both the spectators in the arena and those watching on screens were outraged.

……

Central console.

Staring at the numerous screens, Shura couldn't help but furrow his brow.

That shouldn't be the case.

Mingming's orders were to block the Sky Arena entrance, and for the robots to control the crowd and the screen feed.

Why is the last one silent?

Moreover, Shura inexplicably felt a huge resistance affecting his control of the machine.

Even if he used all his resentment, he couldn't do it!

Someone is getting in his way!

It was an unknown force competing with him in the online world, preventing him from achieving his goals.

Having navigated the internet for so long, this was the first time he had encountered someone who could so fiercely compete with him in this area.

After all, this is his power of resentment!

The official Sky Arena team shouldn't have that much power, right?

Could it be that V5's hacking team has gotten involved?

So fast?

As Shura frantically operated the system, he wondered to himself that only powerful hacker teams had the ability to compete with him.

Little did he know that he was competing with a cat.

Chapter 235 Hero Lynn! What a boastful glutton!

The one-sided battle between the hungry ghost and Zhixi quickly came to an end.

Ji-hee was basically the one getting hit the whole time, and apart from managing to hit the hungry ghost's arm twice by sheer luck, she made no progress.

"drink!"

With her face bruised and swollen, Ji-hee gritted her teeth and braced herself with her hands on the ground

"Tch, they're really tenacious!"

Seeing the little boy Ji-hee, who wanted to get up again even though he was covered in wounds, the hungry ghost's face darkened, and he looked like a demon from hell.

"If you're not willing to fall, then die!"

The hungry ghost roared, gathering a large amount of resentment into its fist, which emitted a blinding light, preparing to deliver the final blow to Zhixi!

The expressions of the people in the audience changed.

In particular, Bisge was planning to transform in front of everyone and rush out to save people.

Before this, Ji-hee had only been injured, which was not a serious matter and she could recover with proper treatment.

Therefore, she did not make a direct move, but now the situation has changed. The hungry ghost's punch was truly intended to kill Ji-hee, and once it hit, there would be no chance of survival!

In the original story, although Ji-hee was seriously injured, she was not in danger of dying.

Therefore, Bisji only went with Yung-ku to rescue Ji-hee and did not choose to transform.

Currently, because Ji-hee is simultaneously committed to both "living up to the reputation of Shin-gen-ryu" and "aiming to surpass Lynn," she has poured immense faith into this battle and therefore has not let her guard down.

As a result, the hungry ghost was enraged by Zhixi's persistence and prepared to kill her.

Compared to the life of her grand-disciple, Bisji no longer cared about her image.
