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

As soon as Lynn stepped off the airship, he was picked up by professionals and put into a car.

Besides the bodyguards, there was also the familiar Biscuit in the car.

Biskey was there to help at Gail's request, mainly as a bodyguard to protect Lynn and Amy.

Secretly, he was curious about the new feature bar that had appeared in his mind.

I wonder what's so special about the Kingdom of Reges, and what kind of cards will drop from its trait bar?

Amy's location was not in the capital, but in an underground base in a second-tier city within the territory, making it extremely well-hidden.

After traveling for some time, he met Amy in a Western-style bedroom, led by Gail and others.

Chapter Ninety-Eight: Yin Hu Kangzai! The Royal Family's Death Curse!

Amy is a twenty-year-old girl with blonde hair and blue eyes. Her skin is excessively pale, making her look unnatural, somewhat like a patient with severe anemia.

She wore Prince Reges’s unique golden crown, with three upright points resembling a trident.

Through [Condensation], Lynn could clearly see that her body was wrapped in chains of deathly energy, tinged with an eerie blackish-purple, binding Amy tightly.

This was the first time he had ever seen such suicidal thoughts.

Whether it was the death wish on Neon's body or the dark energy deep in the swamp forest, both existed in a natural and ethereal form.

However, the death aura surrounding Amy had a fixed chain shape, as if it had been deliberately restrained by something.

Royal children, unusual thoughts of death... Lynn subconsciously thought of the Kakin Empire that appeared in the original work. Perhaps the Kingdom of Reges also has a similar lineage to Kakin?

However, this involves royal secrets, and it's not convenient for Gail to reveal too much, so he doesn't need to care about anything else. As long as he's sure he can get rid of the illusion, he can just wait to receive his reward.

"Is another exorcist here?" A man walked over, dressed in yellow striped clothing, with blond hair that looked like it was standing on end, and his face was smeared with ink to resemble tiger whiskers.

It is Yin Tiger Kangzai, which is one of the twelve earthly branches, along with Si Snake Gai Lu.

In my memory, he was a treasure hunter and bodyguard. He had a rather volatile temper. Hisoka rated his strength at 85 points, which shows that he had considerable strength. I estimate that he was at least A- rank.

It seems that Galo really values ​​Amy, not only bringing in Bisge but also Kang Jae, who is good at being a bodyguard.

Kang Jae was holding two bananas and casually handed one to Lynn: "Here, consider this a small gift. Don't be shy."

Behind Lynn, Gail glared at Kang Zai, telling him to stop causing trouble.

"Okay, okay." Kang Zai snorted and stood aside quietly, peeling and eating a banana. This was what Gail had told him; he was too talkative and had a loud voice, which might disturb Amy.

Therefore, Gail specially had someone buy a lot of fruit, especially pomegranates and pineapples, which require time to peel and taste, in order to distract Kang Jae and suppress his desire to talk.

The dog Qiduoer's assessment of Kangzai is that he has the temperament of a child; just deal with him in the way that keeps the child quiet and prevents him from making a fuss.

Gail wholeheartedly agreed; otherwise, Pariston wouldn't have been able to so easily manipulate Kangzai's emotions every time.

"You must be Mr. Lynn? I'm so sorry to trouble you." Amy said, sitting in the chair, her face looking tired, but her jewel-like eyes were unusually bright, revealing a hint of expectation.

Despite numerous unsuccessful attempts, she will not give up.

She firmly believes that a person only truly loses when they give up, so she always maintains an optimistic attitude.

It was precisely because of her unwavering belief and the purest bloodline of her time that she was chosen as the next king.

Similar to the Zoldyck family, the Regent royal family also has a bloodline system, and their lineage can be identified through special testing methods.

Those with the purest bloodline often possess talents many times greater than others. For example, Amy, at only twenty years old, possessed extremely strong abilities, and no one among the younger generation of the entire royal family could rival her.

Unfortunately, the inheritance of the Reges royal family is subject to uncontrollable factors, and those with excessive talent have a small chance of triggering a curse.

The cursed not only cannot use Nen, but their life force will also be depleted more rapidly until they die. This is a rule that has been passed down since the founding of the Reges royal family.

There are solutions, but the success rate is not high, and they require the assistance of a spirit exorcist; otherwise, they will not be effective.

There was once a highly skilled exorcist who served their royal family, but he was old and died a few years ago.

Unfortunately, Amy triggered a curse this year. They had already sought out many exorcists, but with little success. Several months later, rumors were circulating within the royal family that they were giving up on Amy and choosing another prince instead.

Amy had also been looking forward to the ingredients from the Dark Continent that Gail had mentioned, but although they had some effect after taking them, it was still not enough.

Fortunately, during this trip, Galus unexpectedly met a powerful exorcist who was extremely skilled at removing death thoughts, namely Lynn!

"I'll give it a try." Lynn nodded slightly.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he wasn't sure if Gengar would work, so he couldn't make any definitive statements.

The next moment, Gengar jumped out of the shadows and landed, trying to imitate Chopper by striking a cool pose with its arms outstretched... but its arms were too short to do it.

Amy was only slightly surprised, but her expression returned to normal.

This beast must be an extremely rare beast that can exorcise spirits.

"Gen-gui~"

Gengar stared at the Death Chains on Amy's body, a trickle of saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth... Its intuition told it that this stuff was very sweet and delicious, and that eating it would be of great help.

It opened its mouth wide and frantically swallowed air.

At the same time, a wisp of deathly intent drifted out from the almost solid chains, flowing straight into Gengar's mouth and disappearing.

feasible!

A rare smile appeared on Gailu's usually stern face.

As expected! Lynn is definitely a world-class exorcist!

Don't underestimate the efficiency of this method, which involves peeling away the layers of the mind bit by bit. It's already far more efficient than all the previous mind-removing masters combined.

Gengar can at least remove Nen to some extent; their Nen removal ability is completely incapable of shaking the chains.

Everyone present could recite, so they all witnessed this delightful scene. Although Amy couldn't use her mind, she could still vaguely sense something in her body, and couldn't help but beam with joy.

Very good!

She finally found a magician who could exorcise negative thoughts!

Meanwhile, Lynn fell into deep thought, because Gengar told him that this thing was equivalent to a multi-fold condensed version of normal Death Thought, and even came with an "encryption" effect.

So it can remove, but it will be relatively slow.

It's roughly estimated that it will take two to three months to clean it up.

But that's not a problem at all. The more and purer the Death Nen, the better it is for Gengar. One breath is equivalent to a whole bunch of ordinary Death Nen. This kind of quality is hard to find even with a lantern.

Since we've finally come across this, there's no reason to miss it.

What's more, he also needs to wait here for the trait bar to open, and he can get money by accepting the commission, which is a win-win-win situation.

Now that it was confirmed to be effective, the two parties immediately made a deal. From then on, Lynn didn't have to do anything but focus on eliminating the mental distraction, and anyone else would do whatever he asked.

At the same time, the royal family will pay a deposit of 3 billion, and the balance will be paid after the deal is completed. He will also be allowed to choose any item from the national treasury.

Lynn couldn't help but sigh, "It's good to have rare talent."

He's already made eight billion jenny just from Gail, or rather, from the Reges royal family. That's beyond what you can describe as exorbitant profits.

Chapter 99: Pirates vs. Naruto? How Strong Can an Exorcist Be?

While Gengar was exorcising Amy's Nen, Lynn, led by Gal, toured the entire underground base, which was quite large, about the size of a large stadium.

In addition to living quarters, there are also dedicated training grounds for people to practice.

The base has a large number of personnel. In addition to the logistics staff, there is also a guard team from the royal family, all of whom are Nen users. The dojo was prepared for them.

As a VIP, Lynn's status within the base is second only to Amy's, and she can freely use any facility.

As soon as Lynn and his companions arrived at the dojo, they heard a piercing clap of thunder, like a thousand birds singing in the forest at the same time.

Inside the dojo, on one of the fighting platforms, two people were sparring with each other.

On the left is a blond-haired man exchanging electric shocks, while on the right is a burly man with bull horns on his head.

The two sides traded blows, making for a very exciting match.

"Around B+ level..." Lynn gave his assessment after a quick glance. Both the blond-haired guy and the bull-headed guy were around B+ level.

This is quite normal, since the guards who can appear here are all elites from the Reges royal family, and their strength is naturally not lacking.

In the outside world, B+ rank is already the ceiling among wild Nen users.

However, for a royal family that possesses the resources of an entire nation, it can easily cultivate an elite army composed of Nen users, so a B+ rating isn't particularly impressive.

As the host, Gai Lu took the initiative to introduce them: "The two people sparring on the field are also members of the guard team, codenamed Lightning and Bull."

"Our Reges royal family has unique Nen styles, which are divided into two types: the Nature style and the Beast style."

"Most of the Nature School Nen users are Transmutation-type Nen users. They choose a certain element in nature as their Nen ability, such as wind, fire, water, or electricity. Their power is often much stronger than that of ordinary Transmutation-type Nen users."

"The Beast School is more diverse, tending towards Enhancement or Conjuration types, selecting a certain beast to imitate, and thus possessing Nen abilities with similar traits."

"For example, I am a member of the Beast School, and my Nen ability is the Snake Form."

"Of course, Nen abilities are diverse, and not everyone can become a member of these two schools. Such people are collectively classified as the third school, which has no fixed style."

Nature, wild animals, and others.

Lynn raised an eyebrow. Why did this sound so familiar?

Isn't this a Devil Fruit from One Piece?

Natural, Zoan, and Superhuman types.

In other words, he might get cards from the One Piece world here... It would be great if he could get a Devil Fruit or a powerful character card.

He quickly realized another important point.

He will stay here for two or three months, during which time he can use any resources he wants, including using the guards as sparring partners!

Although they are few in number, they are still a source of cards, and if they are lucky, they can drop some decent cards.

"With so many guards already, and the addition of Bisge and Conzai," Lynn suddenly asked, "what exactly are you guarding against?"

"Other princes?"

Perhaps influenced by the original story of the Cakin Empire, his first reaction was that other princes would try to harm Amy.

“That’s part of the reason, but not entirely.” Gail paused, then said, “It has to do with our Kingdom of Reges’s archenemy.”

Have you ever heard of Yingren Kingdom?

"I've heard of it. That country seems to have a secret organization called the 'Hundred Demons'." Lynn recalled the Six Night Demons he had encountered before.

"That's right. In fact, our country has long maintained a state of friction with Yingren Kingdom, with constant small conflicts and many large-scale wars in history."

"The core organizations of Yingren Kingdom are the [Hundred Demons] and the [Ninjas], just like my Kingdom of Reges, each following its own unique style."

“Amy is the most talented person in recent generations. If she is allowed to grow up, it will be very bad for Yingren Kingdom.”

"The royal family arranged for many people, including myself, to protect Amy here."

"The Kingdom Castle is too conspicuous, and there are too many people around, including quite a few who are hostile to Amy."

"That's why it was arranged in this secret underground base, and very few people in the royal family know about it."

"Moreover, Yingren Kingdom also knows that Amy is cursed, and even sent someone to deliver a letter to express their condolences. They probably didn't take Amy seriously for a long time."

After hearing the general outline, Lynn looked strange. Was this a battle between One Piece and Naruto?

Amidst the casual conversation, the competition on the field came to an end.

Upon seeing Gail appear with a new face, Lei Guang and Man Niu immediately realized that this was the new exorcist!

Huang Mao Lei Guang strode over, his eyes flashing with excitement, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Gai Lu, did it work out?"

Gail nodded slightly, a smile appearing on her face, and said, "This Mr. Lynn has officially become Amy's exorcist."

"That's great!" Lei Guang exclaimed excitedly upon hearing this.

These guards were often closely related to Amy, some even being related to her by blood. They shared both glory and ruin, and were extremely loyal. So when they heard that Amy was saved, Lei Guang and Man Niu were overjoyed.

“Mr. Lynn, thank you very much for your help.” Lei Guang seemed to be a very outgoing person and instinctively reached out to grab Lynn’s hands to express his gratitude, but Lynn dodged him.
