Fury!!!
Walker frowned when he was called upon.
However, he did not refuse. He walked straight to Xia and Mina and stood there quietly, like a big light bulb, blocking the sunlight from falling on the two of them.
"It's Walker!"
Mina blushed and quickly climbed off Xia.
"Walker... thank you!"
Upon seeing the other person, Xia was somewhat excited, took a deep breath, and quickly got up from the ground.
However, upon seeing the other person's bruised and swollen face, he was somewhat surprised, before he could even ask any questions.
"Hmph, no need to thank me. Thanks to you, I've had a very happy few days..."
Walker almost gritted his teeth when talking about "happiness".
If it weren't for that bastard Xia's faulty intelligence, he wouldn't have fallen into Ian's hands.
The thought of being used as a sparring partner by Uvogin all day long made him want to cry silently for himself. He had it so tough!
What exactly happened?
Xia paused for a moment, then her gaze fell upon Ian and his group.
So excited to hear that Mina had returned, he almost forgot to ask how Mina got back.
Hmm... this group of people in front of me... tall, short, thin, fat...
A group of children around his age...
Etc!!
A group of children!?
Then, as if she had just realized something, Xia's face suddenly turned pale!
He struggled to suppress the urge to turn and look in the direction where Dreyn had been, his face stiffening.
What to do... what to do!?
They just kidnapped the other party's companion and then resorted to dirty tricks!
Uncle Silva, the enemy has come knocking!
"Brother, why are you sweating so much?"
Mina, who was standing close to Xia, naturally noticed her brother's change and was somewhat puzzled.
At this moment, Ian and the others also came over.
"Hey, did your appearance scare Uvogin?!" Nobunaga whistled and teased.
Ian quipped with interest.
"You must be Mina's brother. Don't worry, although my brother is ugly, he has a kind heart. Mina can vouch for that. Neither of us are bad people."
Upon hearing this, Uvogin was so angry that he snorted loudly and glared at Nobunaga.
It's all this guy's fault for talking nonsense...
Nobunaga shrugged, a grin on his face, as if to say, "If Ian says so, it means I was right, you idiot Uvogin."
Hearing this, Xia felt immense pressure.
He had accompanied Silva to the factory where the Kalie Gang had been destroyed; the scene was, to say the least, horrific.
Xia, who had heard Silva's analysis, understood very well.
All of this was caused by this seemingly harmless group of teenagers!
"Um... thank you so much for saving Mina. The Sharku Clan owes you all a debt of gratitude."
Xia took a deep breath, trying her best to suppress her emotions, and said with an awkward smile.
"Odd and Even Change?"
At that moment, Ian suddenly blurted out a question.
What did you say!?
Xia was taken aback, a look of confusion on her face.
"No... it's nothing, just a local proverb, meant to greet you." Ian smiled, secretly telling himself he had overthought it.
Having confirmed the code, it seems the other party is not a time traveler.
Xia breathed a sigh of relief and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Even he didn't know how to handle the situation at hand!
To be honest, if I had known earlier that they would send Mina back...
He said he would stop Silva's previous torture methods no matter what.
But the deed is done. Although it hasn't reached the worst point, it's still not something that can be resolved with just an apology or two.
What if the other side discovers that Dreyn has been interrogated!
Xia dared not imagine the consequences.
Moreover, Silva is not in the castle right now. If these Nen users get angry, it will undoubtedly drag the Sharku Clan into the abyss!
Be patient, you must control your panic and stall them!
"I'd like to know, ever since you noticed us, your eyes have unconsciously glanced at that the Room in the Southeast at least three times... Is there anything there?"
Just then, a cool and calm voice rang out, causing Xia's heart to tremble and her face to almost betray her shock.
Chrollo gazed calmly at the other person.
Upon hearing Chrollo's words, the atmosphere on the field suddenly changed!
Uvogin and Nobunaga's eyes narrowed slightly. They stepped forward, blocking Ian's path, and looked around warily.
They would not allow the previous attack by Mizaistom to happen again.
Feitan gripped the Big Black Umbrella tightly, his eyes scanning his surroundings, his legs slightly bent, as if he were about to launch an attack at any moment.
Machi, Pakunoda, and the others also became more cautious after their previous relaxed demeanor.
Ian frowned, and an invisible layer of Nen immediately covered his body.
He didn't believe Chrollo would say such a thing without reason.
Chrollo's ability to become the future leader of the Phantom Troupe at such a young age, and his ability to withstand attacks from Silva and Zeno using his special Nen abilities, demonstrates his formidable combat talent.
Insight is one of the essential qualities of a strong person.
Ian wasn't sure if he had it or not, but he was absolutely certain Chrollo did!
"Young Master Xia, is that right?"
"Could you explain to us what happened?"
Ian stared intently into the other person's eyes and asked calmly.
At this moment, Xia was in a state of anxiety, her forehead covered with a layer of cold sweat. One second it was the warm spring day, and the next she was facing the biting cold of winter.
His mind raced, trying to figure out how to get past this.
"Believe me, even if you want to hide the truth and are unwilling to speak, I can make you tell me the reason..."
After saying that, Ian glanced at Walker beside him.
Walker recalled the memories of being controlled a few days ago, and his expression turned grim. He looked at Xia and hesitated.
"Xia, tell the truth... You should know the methods of Nen users; this guy really can do it..."
"Elder brother..."
Mina looked at Xia with a worried expression; she had never seen her brother so anxious.
In the past, he was like a guardian angel to Mina, capable of solving any problem.
However, what Mina didn't understand at this time was that with Xia's intelligence and family power, he could handle ordinary incidents with ease, but when he faced Nen user could take his life at any time, everything would be greatly compromised.
"Yes... yes..."
Xia was also extremely conflicted.
Just as Ian was about to summon the [Good Friend Ring], he controlled the other person to reveal the truth.
Xia went through a period of inner turmoil and struggle.
Finally, the truth came out.
The weather was clear, but he was already covered in a cold sweat.
Being so close to this group of Nen users, and even at the risk of being killed by them in their anger, it was impossible not to be nervous.
Xia recounted the events in as much detail as possible, attributing the incident to a misunderstanding.
Ian remained silent after hearing his words.
Everyone present could feel the coolness in the air.
Mina fell silent, not daring to say anything more, but she gripped Xia's sleeve tightly. Xia gave a bitter smile; he was truly powerless against Nen users far too often.
Walker's face was also slightly pale.
Having spent some time with Ian and his group, he knew very well what was going on.
In this team, the one with the most say is this always cheerful and harmless boy in front of us.
If this guy gets angry...
The situation is beyond saving. These guys will absolutely obey orders and commit massacres!
Xia... Xia... You've really ruined this for me!
"Please take us there first. Thank you so much for saving Dreyn's life..."
At this moment, Ian spoke, his expression calm, but anyone could sense his inner turmoil.
At this moment, he was like a suppressed volcano, his young body suppressing a torrent of emotions, ready to erupt at any moment!
Uvogin Nobunaga and the others also had cold expressions.
After hearing about Dreyn's ordeal, they decided to return the torture inflicted on him to the man named "Silva"!
"Squeak--"
The door was opened.
Led by Xia, Ian was the first to enter the house.
They found Dreyn lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, his hands tightly bandaged.
Having already learned the details from Xia, Ian naturally knew what kind of injury it was.
However, narration can never be as clear as visuals.
Ian walked to the bedside, his eyes lowered, and said softly.
"I'm sorry, Dreyn, this time we've dragged you into this..."
Seemingly having heard his words, the other person's eyes flickered slightly, and they looked to the side.
When the boy's face came into Dreyn's view, he became slightly agitated, as if he wanted to say something.
"Leave... leave... be careful..."
Ian smiled and said gently.
"Don't worry, Dreyn. If we're afraid of even those who live off the darkness, how can we talk about changing the world..."
"We will avenge you. Focus on recovering. I look forward to having you as one of us in the future."
After saying that, he turned his head and said...
"Machi, could you please use Healing Bandage to treat Dreyn's injuries first?"
He then stood up, looked at Uvogin, Nobunaga, Chrollo, Feitan, and the others, his small face serious, without a trace of a smile, and calmly said.
"Our opponent is the Clan Leader of the Assassin Family, a powerful Zoldyck Family."
"We, Dawn, have never bullied anyone, but when our people are bullied, I think we should make the other party sincerely apologize to us, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!"
Even if the other side is a giant in the Dark World, if they refuse to reason, then let them see how powerful our fists are!
