Ian's Breeding Farm

Upon hearing Maha's words, Netero's eyes narrowed.

His eyes gathered Nen, and he stared intently at Maha, who stood there calmly.

A tangible Nen of Nen emanated from Maha's short stature, coiling around him...

He stood there quietly, yet his slender body seemed to harbor a dormant volcano, whose power would be unimaginable once it erupted!

But...

Even so, Netero shook his head and said seriously.

"Still no match for that monster, Sashado..."

"But... there should be a chance to survive that monster."

Hearing Netero's words, Maha was not angry. Instead, his dry lips curled into a slight smile, and his eyes, no longer as dark as before, stared at Netero as he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Interesting... it's really interesting."

"To have fought against such a master, it seems you, Netero, have had an extraordinary experience..."

Upon hearing Maha's words, Netero's lips curled into a smile, and he raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, if I had to say, it was a battle I would reminisce about for the rest of my life. Of course, if I had the opportunity to break through my limits and become stronger enough to challenge that monster again, I would be even happier."

"The desire for greed..."

Maha shook his head slightly. He was clearly talking more than before, and he did exude a more youthful aura.

He raised his hand and examined his palm, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"However, isn't greed also an obstacle that I cannot overcome? If this power can be sustained, I'm afraid even I would find it difficult to resist such temptation."

"Who can argue with that..."

Netero nodded.

Several old men gazed at the Waterfall beside them, each with their own nostalgic expression.

A moment later.

"When is the date set?" Maha asked quietly.

Netero stroked his beard, but didn't speak. Instead, he looked at Zeno beside him. Zeno frowned helplessly at him and coughed lightly.

"Honestly, do I have to be dragged into this kind of thing?"

"Alright, since Grandpa has agreed to go, I will naturally go and take a look. However... let me make this clear beforehand: if I determine that the probability of us being the target is too low, I will not hesitate to run away."

Upon hearing Zeno's words, Netero's lips curled into a smile.

"Of course, our main task is to find that guy's location first. As for other things, we don't need to worry about them."

"As for the time, it might take a few more days..."

The Hunter Association is still recruiting; they are still short of one suitable member.

After saying that, he took out all the remaining bottles of Performance-Enhancing Liquid and said slowly.

"This is all the potion we got from Ian. Hopefully, we'll succeed..."

Zeno looked at the reddish potion. Although he really wanted to use it, he knew that these were strategic resources and could only be used in critical moments.

"What an extraordinary young man..."

"We old bones risking our lives, but for that brat Ian, it's probably just a piece of cake..."

Netero empathized with this and said helplessly.

"What a pity. If that child hadn't been in Meteor City in the first place, this misunderstanding wouldn't have happened..."

Zeno simply gave a cold laugh.

"Heh heh, do you think Ian would really tolerate V5's actions if he lived in a normal country?"

"That child will not want to be controlled by such a group of people; I am certain of that!"

Upon hearing his words, Netero nodded thoughtfully and said nothing more.

At the same time.

Neither Netero nor Zeno Maha could have imagined this.

At this moment, Ian is "playing" in the Dark Continent with King...

"Charge!"

"Hahaha, this is what it feels like to be invincible! Keep charging, Big White!"

In the vast, green Forest, a white crab, the size of a mountain, was seen moving about with a clanging sound.

Even though it is already quite large, it is still insignificant compared to this Forest.

Ian and Kim had been running for half a day.

It has to be said.

The Dark Continent is far too vast.

Even in this remote and secluded corner of some unknown place, there is such a vast and seemingly endless Forest, spanning at least several hundred kilometers.

Kim and Ian also experienced inhuman treatment.

Riding the giant crab, we were truly unstoppable, crushing any creature we encountered along the way.

For Ian, even when collecting these creatures from the Dark Continent, there are selection criteria.

It'll die with the slightest touch, don't!

They ran away in fright before they even saw Big White! No!

After all, this Forest is simply too vast.

Even Giant Mushroom only occupies a small area; it may be a regional overlord, but it is not the overlord of the entire Forest.

Along the way, after some careful selection, Ian managed to capture more than a dozen decent creatures.

It's fair to say that the creatures he saw here ignited his desire to raise them. The amazing creatures here could probably attract a lot of people to visit if they were used to open a zoo.

There is a giant, snow-white snake that breathes fire; it is mainly beautiful, resembling a snake of ice and snow.

While Big White was running.

This giant ice serpent was so conspicuous in the green Forest that it was spotted at a glance and quickly suppressed by the enormous white Big White.

Even if it's not used for eating, but rather as a miniature sculpture... this little snake is quite beautiful.

Along the way, we also encountered a lizard with two heads that could change size, though only by a few times, which was still quite interesting.

Unfortunately, he offended Big White, who pinched off one of his heads with its pincers. Luckily, Ian took pity on Baymax and used [Freezing Glue] to reattach it, then he kept it in his possession.

Along the way, they also caught an enormous bat, nearly a hundred meters long, which could emit eerie sonic attacks and even damage the incredibly hard Big White.

The outcome was predictable; he was almost Big White in two by Baymax's pliers, but was rescued by Ian at the last moment.

It's not just Ian.

Jin stopped hesitating. Seeing the enormous prey Ian had caught, he joined in, and... well... he caught some small fish and shrimp.

They were most likely creatures that Ian used as food for those dominant creatures of varying sizes that he captured.

However, it must be said that Kim is a genius.

After seeing the [Miniature World Refrigerator], he somehow made some kind of "Contract and Restriction," and based on his Nen Ability "Game World," he also opened a channel to release these living creatures.

In short, the two gained a lot along the way.

After running for an unknown amount of time, finally... in a sea of green, we came across a sinkhole.

It looked as if it had been struck by a meteorite; the vast, enormous crater was not easily noticeable unless viewed from above the White Stone Crab's high back.
