Starting as a Gadget Master from Hunter x Hunter

"We're leaving already?"

Uvogin smacked his lips, clearly not satisfied.

"Of course not!"

Morin smiled, his eyes gradually turning cold. "I haven't found that foul-mouthed guy yet."

"Besides, wouldn't it be a shame to leave such a great building without setting it on fire?!"

"Fire?"

Uvogin's lips split into a grin. "I like it!!"

With that, he grabbed Nobunaga and followed Morin, searching for flammable materials like gasoline and alcohol along the way.

Not long after they had started walking...

A powerful Aura suddenly accelerated from behind them.

"A master is coming!!"

Nobunaga stopped, holding his long sword horizontally, his hand gripping the hilt. His expression was solemn as he assumed an iaijutsu stance.

The aura capacity displayed by the opponent was definitely not something they could contend with at their current level!!

"Are we going to fight?"

Uvogin clapped his fists together. He feared no opponent.

Of course, if they couldn't win, running away would be even better.

"No need."

Morin shook his head, then took out a bamboo skewer.

Stuck on the skewer were four small, white balls that resembled mochi dumplings.

"Is this food?"

Nobunaga asked curiously. "Is it to fill our stomachs and restore our energy?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Uvogin scorned him again. "What kind of food is this? It's not even enough to pick my teeth!"

While the two were bickering, Morin had already quickly taken down the top dumpling-like ball.

He threw it forcefully towards the direction from which the Nen ability master was attacking.

Instantly, the small white ball landed on the ground, kicking up a cloud of pink smoke, as if nothing had happened.

Uvogin and Nobunaga looked at Morin, confused.

"Let's go."

Morin offered no explanation and prepared to flee with the other two.

The experts who caught up behind offered their most sincere mockery to their colleague who had charged ahead.

However, having learned from the previous incident, they cautiously observed their surroundings, intending to stride right over it.

But then?

"Screeeech!!!"

Another skin-crawling sound, and two more people were stuck fast to the ground.

"Is the range this wide?"

Looking at a large area ahead, it seemed as though super-sticky glue was hidden on the ground.

"Let's take another path!!"

Seeing Morin and the three with Uvogin about to disappear from sight, the group decisively changed their route.

But this inevitably caused a considerable delay.

"Morin, you're amazing!!"

Uvogin, looking back at the scene that had just unfolded, finally understood:

"Is that a new item of yours?"

"Yeah, it's called the [Life-Saving Pills]," Morin replied.

[Life-Saving Pills] was the third and final item Morin had drawn in the past three days, besides [Canned Goods Studio] and [Cuckoo Bird Egg].

Item: Life-Saving Pills.

Effect: When cornered by an opponent, throwing one of these Life-Saving Pills will allow for a smooth escape from pursuit.

There were a total of U! pills. Each one possessed a different escape ability. For instance, the first one turned a large area of the ground into deadly, inescapable glue.

Like the Translation Jelly, these were single-use items; once they were all gone, they were gone.

The Nen ability experts who had followed behind all became vigilant.

Even though their target ahead was as weak as an ant, they all became alert, knowing they possessed Nen abilities.

Who knew what kind of abilities they had?

Besides the ability to turn the ground into glue so casually, were there others?

Thinking this, the group tried to avoid the ground as much as possible, maneuvering along the walls as they went. Seeing this, Morin once again threw the second Life-Saving Pill from his string.

Plop!

After hitting the ground, a cloud of pink mist appeared.

This made the experts following behind tense up.

Just as they were preparing to guard themselves by staying close to the wall—

Rumble!

The ground shook.

To their astonished gazes, it suddenly surged upwards like hills and earth spikes!! Piercing straight towards the sky! The area was so vast and the scale so grand that it formed a solid earth wall, firmly blocking them behind it and separating them.

"Damn it!!"

The group of experts roared in anger.

Gathering their Nen power in their hands, they launched consecutive special moves, both Enhancer and Emitter techniques, at the earth wall.

But let alone breaking it, they couldn't even shake it in the slightest.

"How can it be this hard?"

Their faces contorted in frustration.

"What kind of Nen ability is this?!"

Effects triggered by items were difficult to overcome with brute force.

Many stared at the earth wall before them, racking their brains for a solution.

They looked at the towering earth wall.

"Speaking of which, the room directly above this area is where the Elder is, right?" someone suddenly remembered, swallowing hard.

The expressions of the others stiffened simultaneously.

They exchanged a glance.

Surely, probably, maybe, possibly, or… it couldn't be that coincidental, could it?

The uppermost floor, in the Elder's office.

The old man, clad in fur, stared blankly at the large chunk of earth that had suddenly erupted from below, now mere centimeters from his face. The heavy scent of soil tickling his nose made a bead of sweat trickle down his forehead.

"Gulp?"

He swallowed softly.

The protruding earth wall was only a few centimeters away from him.

If he had taken just one more step forward, the result might have been him being impaled along with it.

The desk in front of him, along with the red wine on it, had already been smashed to smithereens.

030 Instant Kill!

"What in the world is this…"

His lips trembled. "What's going on!!!"

His tone suddenly shot up.

The angry, high-pitched voice boomed downwards, echoing throughout the entire building.

The experts pursuing Morin and the others below shivered collectively upon hearing it.

"Hahaha, that old geezer's losing it!!"

Near the doorway, Uvogin, who was on the verge of escaping, let out a hearty laugh.

Nobunaga also pursed his lips, wanting to chime in with a fitting remark.
