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

People just love watching strong opponents clash, even if they don't really understand it.

Therefore, the authorities had no choice but to assign some "eloquent" people to act as explainers, describing those bizarre Nen abilities as magic tricks, martial arts moves, and the like to fool people.

Compared to other types, the Enhancement type is the most normal type of battle, and it is also the kind of head-to-head battle that the audience is most happy to see, so the response is very enthusiastic.

Chapter Sixty-Four: Bisge's Evaluation! Become the Champion!

In the audience, Bisji's eyes shone brightly as she used [Concentrate] to carefully observe the battle between the two on the field.

As a veteran Nen user, she has a very sharp eye and was able to see the strengths and weaknesses of both sides in just a short time.

Zack is most likely an Enhancer, relying on his katana for attacks. His advantage is obvious: his reaction speed is fast.

However, if you look closely, you will notice that there is a slight pause in every time he observes and makes a move. It seems that his eyes are following, but his own strength is not keeping up, so he cannot seize the opponent's small mistakes and expand his advantage in the battle.

This is clearly an unreasonable situation.

Normally, everyone's moves and reactions are coordinated, and it is impossible for one side to be too strong or too weak.

The most plausible explanation for this phenomenon is Nen ability.

If I'm not mistaken, this so-called "host" Zack should have enhanced vision or other Nen abilities related to reaction speed.

Bisji then looked at Lynn on the other side, her gaze becoming more intriguing.

On the surface, Zack is always on top of Lynn, and ordinary people would think that Zack has the advantage. Only a Nen user with a high level of skill can see the clues.

Lynn is very steady.

Faced with Zach's rapid offensive, he did not choose to be headstrong, but instead played it safe, dodging some of the attacks before launching his own.

Lynn's reaction time is also very fast, and she can even anticipate things in advance, so she can always dodge without making any mistakes.

This is better than Zach's; Lynn's body can keep up with the reactions.

Lynn's Nen was also very stable. Although it was not like a magnificent river or a turbulent wave, it was a calm and flowing stream. In contrast, Zack's Nen was already showing signs of instability.

If one's mental energy becomes unstable, it will affect the use of techniques such as [Flow] and [Firmness], ultimately allowing the opponent to seize the opportunity to break the deadlock.

In addition, Bisge also noticed that Lynn's moves were somewhat different, unlike the normal advanced application techniques such as [Firm] and [Flow].

It seems he also has other abilities mixed in; perhaps he is also a Nen user of the Enhancement type?

Due to insufficient information, Bisgee temporarily categorized Lynn's performance as an enhancement of her Nen abilities.

Lynn seemed to be practicing her moves, using this match to hone her skills, rather than being as ambitious and single-minded as Zach.

Lynn's shortcomings are also quite obvious.

In Bisji's view, there is still a lot of room for improvement in terms of energy, skill proficiency, and the ability to make moves in a moment of combat.

Lynn gave her the impression of being a Nen user lacking combat experience, who needed to hone his skills against opponents of similar or even stronger levels to help him grow better.

Bisquige lives up to her reputation; most of her predictions are correct.

At this moment, Zach was already secretly groaning in despair.

He was the one who truly fought alongside Lynn, so he could more directly understand how difficult things were for him!

Whether it's dodging reflexes or attack power, his opponent is superior to him!

He couldn't hit him, and even if he did, the effect was mediocre and he couldn't cause any effective damage; he could only wear down the opponent's energy. On the other hand, the opponent could always hit him, and the effect was quite good.

Although the gap isn't huge, if this continues, he'll only end up losing, which would be incredibly embarrassing!

Thinking of this, Zach gritted his teeth, his expression resolute.

Ignoring the depletion of his spiritual energy, he wrapped a thick layer of [Zhou] around his katana and then slashed horizontally with all his might, the strike whistling as it went!

Since it was difficult to hit him, he disregarded the depletion of his energy and went all out!

Regardless, at least we should hit the target first!

The crescent-shaped psychic strike split the air in two.

In a flash, Lynn stomped his feet and leaped into the air, managing to stabilize himself in mid-air. He then unleashed a series of slashes with his feet, even more powerful than Zack's!

He first used [Shave] to jump into the air to dodge the slash, then used [Moonwalk] to stop in mid-air, and then used [Storm Kick] to attack Zac below who was in a vulnerable position!

Swah——

A flash of light!

In an instant, a net of lightning-fast attacks enveloped Zach, forcing him to endure the relentless bombardment.

The hard marble arena was inevitably blasted with knife marks, and gravel and dust mixed together and spread with the strong wind, reducing visibility in the arena for a moment.

After a while, Lynn finally landed steadily on the ground, and the dust gradually subsided, revealing Zack lying unconscious in the center of the arena.

The master of the Sky Arena was defeated by the unknown Lynn!

An uproar erupted in the audience!

In the eyes of ordinary people, the master of the Sky Arena is definitely the strongest of the strong. Most people thought that Zac would definitely win, but the result of the match was unexpected.

"This is truly an amazing result!"

"Zack lost to Lynn!"

"It seems the champion of this carnival has been decided! It is none other than our contestant, Lynn!" the host announced.

Zach and Lynn already had a significant lead in points. After defeating Zach, Lynn gained 50 points while Zach lost 100, which was enough to secure Lynn's championship title.

After dodging most of the photos and interviews, Lynn was finally able to leave the food tower; if she had been any slower, she would have been surrounded by the crowd.

As the champion of this carnival, he could naturally choose three items from the final grand prize. First, the invitation to the Gourmet Paradise was a must-have, and then he chose a rare ingredient and an antique.

Although there are more than a dozen prizes to choose from, most of them are things that can be bought with money and are not very expensive.

So he chose the prize that was relatively difficult to obtain.

The carnival hasn't ended yet, so the prize will be delivered to his current address tomorrow. He can just wait patiently.

Back at the hotel, Lynn conjured a card from her hand.

The next moment, the card transformed into a gleaming, snow-white blade.

【Name: Snow Walk】

[Grade: C+]

[Type: Item Card]

[Background: One Piece]

[Description: One of the Fifty Fine Swords, embodying some of Zoro's beliefs. When the wielder uses this sword for training, their swordsmanship proficiency will be further enhanced.]

This is the knife he dropped after defeating Zac.

Yubashiri is the sword Zoro used in the original work. As one of the fifty best swords, its quality is absolutely guaranteed.

However, the reason it was rated C+ is probably because of the last sentence: [Snow Walk] can additionally increase sword proficiency.

This is a great treasure for a swordsman or someone who wants to become a swordsman, but he doesn't really need it right now.

He wields ice magic in his left hand and physical techniques in his right, which is sufficient for normal combat. He doesn't need to increase his burden too much before he becomes more proficient.

Of course, no one would complain about having too many cards. In your spare time, you can play with Snow Walk, or at the very least, keep it to use as a crafting card.

His cards will always have a place to go, so there's no need to worry about not being able to use them.

Next, he just needs to wait for the prize to arrive, and then he'll have the chance to go to the legendary [Gourmet Paradise], where he can surely get a good number of cards!

Chapter Sixty-Five: The Phantom Troupe's Attack! (Please continue reading!)

During the match.

Top of the food tower.

The television in the office was broadcasting the final match live, showing the scene of Zach lying on the ground after the smoke cleared.

"It seems the champion is Lynn." Franklin gently pinched a can of beer with his large fingers, popped it open, and then tilted his head back to drink it.

Compared to his hand, the beer can suddenly looked much smaller.

"So our target is Lynn?" Franklin asked the knight beside him. He had no opinions of his own and just trusted the knight's analysis.

"Yes, this Lynn is definitely worth taking action against." The swordsman stared at Lynn being interviewed on the screen and nodded slightly.

"Judging from the match just now, this Lynn should be a Nen user who leans towards enhancement, and his strength surpasses that of the lower-level Lord."

"He's interesting. He's shown abilities like anticipation, hovering in the air, and using his feet to deliver slashes." The knight analyzed carefully, recalling scenes in his mind. "Anticipation can be understood as combat experience, slashes are a power-enhancing technique, and hovering in the air is very similar to Nen."

"I don't know exactly how far it can go, but the current analysis is of some value, so it's worth making a move to acquire it."

"Let's set it for tomorrow, and launch the attack under the guise of delivering prizes."

"Also, the surveillance footage shows that Lynn is often accompanied by a bodyguard, which he should also consider."

After a moment of contemplation, the knight-errant made his plans, which would take into account all aspects and strive to be perfect and without any flaws.

With him and Franklin working together, dealing with Lynn will be no problem.

Then I can bring Lynn and the ancient book... all to the commander.

……

The next day.

Inside the hotel suite, Lynn held snow in both hands and gestured casually.

The Snow Walker is a black lacquered katana with a chaotic, small T-shaped blade. The scabbard is quite exquisite and ornate, making it highly appealing in both appearance and practicality.

Lynn casually swung his sword a few times, the sound of it cutting through the air whistling through the air.

The gleaming blade reflected his calm and collected face.

He practiced briefly, but the feedback wasn't very noticeable, which may be related to his lack of basic swordsmanship skills.

When it comes to swordsmanship, the only connection he has is the kitchen knife he used for cooking in his previous life, and the scalpel he used for surgery.

It has absolutely nothing to do with real swordsmanship.

Overall, let's focus on ice magic and physical techniques first.

"Ding dong~"

As I was lost in thought, the doorbell rang.

He didn't order any food or request any other room service... Was it a prize from the food tower that was delivered to his door?

Lynn placed the Snow Walker on the table, and Gastly floated out from the shadows under the table, curiously staring at the Snow Walker, which looked quite appealing.

"Kou Jie?"

It carefully picked up Xue Zou and stuck out its big tongue to lick the blade.

Hmm... it has no taste.

Then it imitated the magician's performance on TV, putting the whole knife vertically into its mouth, staging a scene of swallowing a long knife alive, and then taking it out, laughing to itself... It felt that it was quite talented as a magician.

On the other side, as Lynn approached the door, his brows suddenly furrowed, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, like the instinctive reaction of a wild animal facing danger.

It's Observation Haki giving a warning!

A sudden flash of inspiration struck him. Without time to think, he quickly stepped forward and used [Shave] to retreat as far as possible away from the doorway.

Something's definitely not right!

boom!!

Time seemed to stand still as the bomb outside the door exploded with a deafening roar, unleashing a blinding flash of light and scorching energy.

The magnificent door vanished in an instant, along with the adjacent wall, which was blasted open, sending a wave of scorching heat and rubble flying towards us.

It's a bomb!
