Red Dragon, Devour Him!

At ten o'clock in the morning on January 28, the enormous venue on the 200th floor of Sky Arena was packed to the brim.

Countless spectators who had paid a fortune to attend were waving their hands and loudly cheering for the fighters they supported. Quite a few of them had also placed bets on the matches.

You must know, battles between fighters on the 200th floor were not like those from the lower floors up to the 199th, which took place almost every day and could be missed without much consequence.

Due to the rarity and unique nature of Nen abilities, every contestant here had ninety days to prepare. In other words, they usually only stepped into the ring once every three months.

If special circumstances prevented them from returning in time, that period could be even longer.

Thus, there were generally only two or three matches on the 200th floor each month, unless someone had absolute confidence in their own strength, challenged several fighters in succession, and arranged the matches very close together.

For those fanatical fighting enthusiasts, missing even a single match—no, even a single instant—would leave them with lifelong regret.

Feeling the restlessness and fervor permeating the air, as well as the overwhelming enthusiasm of the spectators in the stands, Allen took the initiative to ask his opponent in the ring, "So, are you ready to say goodbye to your Nen?"

"Don't dream! We won't let you get your way! Today, I'll show you the true resolve of a 200th-floor fighter!" Goz shot back without yielding.

"Resolve? Heh, do you really have such a thing? If you did, why would you specifically pick newcomers and beginners as your opponents?" Allen sneered, tearing off the other man's hypocritical mask.

As the saying went, the strong raised their blades against those stronger than themselves, while the weak raised their blades against those weaker than themselves.

If a Nen user did not even have the courage to challenge an opponent stronger than himself, how powerful could his Nen possibly be?

"Shut up!" Clearly struck where it hurt, Goz immediately turned to urge the referee, "Hey! How long are you going to stand there like an idiot? Start already!"

"Th-the match will use the point knockout system. There is no time limit. Begin!"

The referee had clearly been startled, but he still recited his lines according to Sky Arena's customary procedure.

As the last word was blurted out, an unusually shaped two-handed sword suddenly appeared in Allen's hand.

Its hilt was dark red like fresh blood, while its blade was grayish white, with similarly dark-red patterns running through the middle.

A sapphire resembling an eye was embedded where the hilt joined the blade, constantly radiating a faint chill.

Judging by its appearance alone, this sword was clearly no ordinary weapon.

More precisely, it was called the Sword of Ravenholdt, also known as the DK Sword. It was an epic weapon dropped by Baron Rivendare, the final boss of Stratholme's Undead District. Its greatest feature was that it increased movement speed and health regeneration speed.

Like the DK mount, it was something countless players had gone mad over and longed for.

A weapon? A Conjuration-type Ability User!

Goz instantly made what he believed was an accurate judgment. At the same time, he swiftly activated his Transmutation ability—Invisible Left Wrist—attempting to seize Allen directly and render him unable to move on the spot.

But unfortunately, just as he thought he was about to succeed, Allen dodged with ease, as though he had sensed something in advance.

Witness the enemy's ability completed!

"Turning your aura into a hand that cannot be seen with the Naked Eye? Not a bad ability! But unfortunately, its user is too weak to bring out its full potential." As Allen evaluated it, he used Gyo to observe the giant hand that had been pursuing him.

This ability reminded him of the "Bigby" series of spells from Dungeons & Dragons.

If its user's aura were strong enough, it could even instantly bind someone in place and crush them alive into a pulp.

Combined with the fact that it was invisible to the Naked Eye and required Gyo to see, it was extremely suitable for sneak attacks.

As long as the timing was right, it could definitely give an enemy an enormous surprise.

"Bastard! Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to criticize my ability? Go to hell! Fist of Judgment!"

Goz suddenly turned the palm created by his ability into a fist and slammed it down viciously.

Boom!

After a Loud Noise, a small crater roughly five meters in diameter appeared in the ring.

Allen stood right at the edge of the crater, completely unharmed.

As a Transmutation-type Nen user, Goz clearly could not punch a huge crater into the ground like an Enhancement-type user and inflict area damage through terrifying Destructive Power.

So although that fist looked somewhat intimidating, its actual power was extremely limited. As long as one avoided it head-on, there would be no damage at all.

"Too slow! If I were you, I wouldn't keep that hand around all the time. I'd make it disappear right after every attack, then summon it again for the next one. If I'm not mistaken, you only obtained your Nen abilities after undergoing the Baptism, right? I'm very curious what kind of face lies beneath that mask."

Giving an Ability User a better and more powerful direction for Ability Development at their current stage completed!

The moment he finished speaking!

Allen vanished from where he stood in a flash.

The next second...

He appeared less than half a meter from his opponent, swinging the Sword of Ravenholdt down.

Crack!

The mask on Goz's face split into two, revealing a grotesque visage covered in burns and scalds.

There was no need to ask; these were undoubtedly marks left behind from battles with other Nen users.

It was these scars and this pain that had awakened his Nen abilities and led him to develop his current ability—Invisible Left Wrist.

"Ahhh! M-my mask! My mask!"

Goz suddenly picked up the two halves of the mask from the ground like a madman, desperately trying to stick them back together.

But such efforts were clearly futile. No matter how many times he put them back, the shattered mask would fall apart again.

At last, his mind completely collapsed. A powerful aura of resentment and hatred poured from his body as he gritted his teeth and said, "Brat! You've successfully enraged me! Now, I'll wager everything I have, including my life! Just at this! I'll kill you!!!!!!!"

As the last word was blurted out, Goz's aura surged to more than ten times its previous amount. The Invisible Left Wrist also changed from blurry to clearer, stronger, and more powerful, obviously receiving a massive boost.

"Restraints and Vows?" Allen showed a hint of surprise, but quickly smiled and replied, "Well done! This is the kind of you worth hunting! Come on, let me see what you can do."

"Death Grip!"

Goz abruptly raised his left hand and made a grabbing motion.

In an instant!

The Nen hand that had been more than ten meters away suddenly appeared out of thin air beneath Allen's feet and clenched at lightning speed.

Clearly, he had listened to Allen's earlier advice and used Vow and Restriction to grant Invisible Left Wrist the ability of Teleportation.

But against Allen's formidable Agility attribute and the percentage-based movement speed increase from the DK Sword, he had already leaped away before the giant hand could close, then rushed before his opponent in the blink of an eye and stabbed at his heart.

Nen ability—Enhancement

Bestow two-handed sword attribute—Sharpness

Pfft!

There was no surprise!

Bolstered by Enhancement-type Nen abilities, the DK Sword easily pierced through Goz's Ten, passing straight through his chest. Bright red blood gushed out the instant the sword was pulled free.

Personally inflict a fatal injury that will not cause immediate death

All conditions fulfilled

Activate Nen ability—Life's Plunder

"Red Dragon! Devour him!"
