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

Lynn's face lit up with joy. The importance of such high-tech talents is no less, especially in modern society.

He originally asked Tailmon to use "network data" to achieve his goal, but the scope of what he could do was relatively limited.

Now he has gained another great help. Compared to Gatomon, Machine Maru is better at handling this kind of matter and is very versatile.

Then, he asked Mechanical Maru to bring up the surveillance footage from the rooftop.

As expected, the screen in the control room quickly displayed the situation on the rooftop.

Jade, and Netero, who is sealed on a cross made of resentment.

Lynn looked at Jade on the screen, who had a blank expression, was holding his phone, and seemed a little puzzled. She could guess what he was thinking.

They must be wondering why they can't contact the hungry ghosts and asuras.

In fact, there's really nothing wrong with what Jade did.

Of the four, Purgatory was responsible for controlling Netero.

Just in case, Jade also dealt with the strongest group of people in the Sky Arena, namely the Tower Masters, in advance, and even converted them into "his own" combat force.

Both the Hungry Ghost and the Asura possess A-rank strength, making them formidable among Nen users. Moreover, they have the special enhancement of [Resentment], allowing them to unleash a small burst of power when their emotions fluctuate.

The hungry ghosts, along with the controlled tower masters, were responsible for clearing out the rebels within the Sky Arena and dealing with external enemies.

In the show, the hungry ghost guards the gate of the Sky Arena and is not defeated even when facing an army.

As a technologically advanced individual, Shura seized control of the Sky Arena from the very beginning, closing all passages and opening them only to his own people, while also controlling a large number of soldier robots.

Such coordination can be described as flawless.

Even if there are "escaped fish" like Bisji in the crowd, Jade can handle them with his strength; it just takes a little more effort.

Who would have thought that he would be killed off by the two little ones he looked down upon?

Jade, who was originally fighting Netero to a standstill, was knocked down by a punch from Gon, who inexplicably unleashed his full power.

Xiao Jie was even corrupted by resentment before, so he should have become like those other posters.

As a result, Gon was abruptly awakened by the "power of love" with Killua, transforming into a "Super Saiyan" and defeating Jade with a single punch.

However, Xiao Jie no longer has that opportunity.

Because he's the one who's going to deal with Jade next.

……

The night was endless.

The rooftop of the Sky Arena.

This is the highest point in the Sky Arena. Standing on the rooftop, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire city's nightscape.

"Unable to get in touch."

Jade's eyelids were lowered, and a deep gloom lurked in his golden pupils.

He just tried to contact the hungry ghosts and asuras, but couldn't get through. It's highly likely that he's already gone...

The thought that he was the only one left of the four filled Jade with rage. He turned sharply to look at Netero, who was nailed to the cross like Jesus, and said with a forced smile:

"Looks like your men are quite capable."

"Unlike you!"

Even though he was imprisoned, Netero was not too worried and just smiled, not taking it seriously.

"My men?"

Netero paused for a moment, and Lynn's image immediately flashed into his mind. He chuckled to himself.

"Then you're mistaken. I'm not qualified to have him as my subordinate."

"But you were right about what you said later, I can't compare to him at all~"

Netero remarked that this was why he wasn't nervous, because Lynn was in the Sky Arena!

"Why! Why can you still act like nothing happened?!"

"Tell me, Netero!!"

Netero's leisurely demeanor thoroughly enraged Jade, causing intense resentment to rise from his body, and spiderweb-like cracks to suddenly appear on the ground beneath his feet.

"Hehe, the main thing is that someone will come to rescue us."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't be so calm."

After speaking, Chairman Netero winked playfully.

"Ha, Netero, you're getting old. Tell me, who can save you now!"

"Based on those two kids I just threw down?"

"By now, he's probably been smashed into a pulp by me, right?"

Jade sneered, mocking Netero's words.

"I wasn't referring to Xiao Jie and the others."

"You probably don't follow current events much, do you? You don't even know Lynn? He's far more capable than me!"

Netero recalled Lynn's various deeds, and his final impression was of that meeting.

"Wow, the younger generation is really surpassing the older generation. I'm definitely getting old."

"My era has passed, the new era is called—Lynn!"

Lynn...

Upon hearing this name, Jade recalled Netero's speech to everyone earlier.

It mentions that he voluntarily admitted that he was inferior to this person named "Lynn," who, if I remember correctly, was the strongest tower master in the Sky Arena.

He didn't see Lynn when he was dealing with the other members of the group.

Lynn was already exceptionally good-looking, even standing out in a crowd, and Sky Arena had given it a lot of publicity.

Even Jade, who wasn't interested in this, remembered Lynn's face and some related information.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that the hungry ghosts and Asuras are likely to fall into this person's hands.

Damn!

"Since you have so much hope for this Lynn, then he'd better have the courage to come and face the threat of death!"

"That's bound to be a waste of time, but I actually hope he does it, because then I can tear him to pieces right in front of you!"

"Tear him to pieces!"

Netero remained silent in the face of Jade's outrageous remarks.

Before experiencing it firsthand, this person will only come to terms with reality after being brutally beaten by Lynn; no matter how much he says, it will be meaningless.

"You're not denying it anymore? Useless thing!"

Jade tossed his cloak, turned his back to Netero, and his pale face darkened.

The original plan was for Shura to lock down all communications in the Sky Arena, and then he would negotiate with the Hunter Association.

But now that Shura is unreliable, he has to come on his own.

In that case, let's not block information!

Show this scene directly to everyone on the six continents!

Let them see how disgusting the Hunter Association they trust is, and let them see how miserable the fate of Netero, whom they idolize, will be!

……

Hunter Association.

"I'm sorry, we have no comment at this time."

"I'm sorry, we have no comment at this time."

Inside the huge office, the same replies were heard everywhere.

Faced with people's questions, the Hunter Association was unable to give a precise answer.

Beanman, as the secretary to the president of the Hunter Association, is even busier.

In contrast, Pariston, the vice president, seemed to be watching the show, remaining seated without moving.

"What bad luck! The Sky Arena has been invaded, and President Netero has disappeared without a trace."

"Fortunately, Mr. Lynn was there; it seems the situation is under control."

The man with the bean-shaped face answered calls from V5 and from the public at the same time.

Even amidst a busy schedule, there are still spare moments to ramble on.

As he ran, the Bean Man caught a glimpse of Pariston sitting idly in his office and muttered under his breath:

"How could there be someone like you?"

Suddenly, someone shouted at the bean-faced man, "It's here! The mastermind has started a live stream, and the guild leader is in it too!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jade's image appeared on the large screen in the office, with Netero, who was imprisoned, behind him.

This scene is being broadcast live to all six continents!

In other words, everyone who watched the live stream saw Chairman Netero being arrested!

"President..." Bean Man looked at Netero, who was looking down in the picture, with a worried expression.

"Good evening, everyone of the Hunter Association and all of the six continents."

Under the cover of night, the man behind the commotion at the Sky Arena appeared before everyone's eyes—Jade!

"In a dozen hours, at five o'clock, I will execute Netero here!"

"My demand is that the Hunter Association's Dark Records be made public!"

“Until then, I will stay with Netero.”

After speaking, Jade closed his eyes, eagerly awaiting the reaction from the Hunter Association and even countries like V5.

It would be fine if they obediently followed his instructions.

If they don't listen...

So after Netero dies, it will be their turn!

The Dark Logbook contains records of tasks assigned to them by the Hunter Association.

Today he's going to reveal what's inside to the public!

Let people know the "good deeds" done by those hypocritical scoundrels!

This was just the first step in his plan. It wasn't enough to just ruin their reputations; he wanted to make those people from back then pay a bloody price!

Jade's words were casual, but they caused an earthquake-like commotion throughout the six continents.

Jade's stream is connected to Sky Arena, and everyone watching Sky Arena's stream will see this.

Their most revered Hunter Association president, Chairman Netero, is imprisoned and at their mercy.

This silver-haired man even said he wanted to execute Chairman Netero!

Will Chairman Netero be alright?

What is this "dark record book" he mentioned?

This is what countless viewers watching the live stream are thinking.

After Jade's speech, the Hunter Association's hotline was almost overwhelmed with calls.

Countless people from all six continents were filled with doubt and wanted to know the situation from the Hunter Association.

Many more people are filled with despair.

Even Chairman Netero was easily subdued, so who else could possibly deal with that unknown and powerful enemy!

Now is not the time to consider the ins and outs; people just want to know when the enemy can be defeated, or rather... whether it can be defeated at all!

"To prove my words, I will show you my power!"

Suddenly, Jade said something meaningful, turning his head to look at the entrance to the passage connecting the rooftop and the ground floor, which was also captured in the live broadcast.
