Kakin Upheaval X Greed Island

"Okay, I understand."

The next day, Oboro hung up the phone.

He received news that Gon and Killua had gone to the Kakin Empire in order to reunite with Kurapika.

Another reason, of course, is the auction on Greed Island.

"Interesting."

Long smiled, his eyes holding a knowing look.

In the original story, the events involving Greed Island and the billionaire Battera take place in Yorknew City.

Now it has been transferred to the Kakin Empire.

On one hand, it was because of Kurapika; on the other hand, Oboro couldn't help but think of Ging Freecss.

With the latter's ability, one can easily determine Gon's growth curve, and also calculate what Gon and Killua obtained from Mito after returning to Whale Island, and make corresponding arrangements.

"Marilyn Corporation".

He mumbled incoherently.

As expected, in the original story, this company commissioned Yorknew's auction house to conduct the auction... but now it has been moved to Kakin's capital.

Every year around this time, in August and September, is a major event at Yorknew Auction House, and the participants are not just the Ten Dons. Now that the Fills Family has taken control of the global underworld, they still use the newly appointed Ten Dons to routinely auction off some of their collections at Yorknew.

This is also a chance to help the new Ten Dons promote their status and reputation.

However... the game equipment for Greed Island did not appear as scheduled.

"Are you avoiding me? Or is it..."

He and Beyond had a huge fight in Kakin, and this might not be kept from Ging Freecss. Moreover, Ging probably also knows about his relationship with Gon.

The character progression stages for characters like Gon were deliberately altered by Ging Freecss.

"It's also possible... that it's to Beyond."

Lonely turned her phone around.

At present, no one understands his strength better Beyond.

Because he had just fought a major battle with Beyond, Ging Freecss wanted to gain a deeper understanding of his methods, Beyond was the best entry point.

In other words, Ging Freecss himself may now be in the Kakin Empire.

As for Kurapika, the Fills Family has been keeping an eye on him.

The other party has joined a mid-sized Mafia family in Kakin and has already gained the trust of the family head in just a few months through outstanding performance... He hasn't made contact with the royal family yet, but judging from the current situation, it should be soon.

The auction held at the Kakin Royal Family was funded by Marilyn Corporation, the developer of Greed Island.

Marilyn is one of Ging Freecss's partners, and the company has put out a lot of good stuff to attract a lot of attention to the auction... I heard that many world-renowned billionaires have gone there.

Its momentum completely overshadowed the publicity efforts for this year's Yorknew Auction.

The mastermind behind this is Kim.

In addition, this is also an opportunity for the royal princes to make connections with important figures from all over the world and strengthen their own ranks.

Therefore, they will all make an appearance.

It should be noted that the most powerful eldest prince, Benjamin, is now in a precarious situation, which the other princes see as a rare opportunity to rise to power.

The auction also provides an opportunity to network with the royal family and learn the truth behind the Fills Family's recent setback in Kakin.

And... it's also about deliberately creating hype to provide Gon with an environment where he can be tempered.

"You wouldn't be teaming up with Beyond you? Teaming up with him... it's better to team up with me..." Long smiled.

Ging Freecss would never cooperate with Beyond, and even if Beyond approached him, he would not associate with him.

The main goal should still be to understand one's own abilities.

"Captain! I can't hold on any longer..."

Anthony sound came from the side.

He collapsed to the ground, drenched in sweat, staring in fear at the ghosts hovering around him; the burst of spiritual energy he had generated had long since vanished.

"With this level of skill... you think you can go to the Dark Continent?"

Long came to her senses and smiled gently.

He is currently giving special training to several team members.

"This is too difficult..."

Anthony glanced again at his three teammates, who were already lying on the ground besides Menchi, and panted.

Only Menchi is still persevering, maintaining his state of mindfulness practice.

The woman was surrounded by a large number of ghostly figures, with ghosts constantly howling and screaming in her ears. The impact on her mental state was extraordinary. Under such circumstances, it is easy to imagine how difficult it would be to maintain the smooth flow of her spiritual energy.

"Keep going... We don't have much time left."

Long slowly got up and walked over.

"Stop complaining. At least... the crisis I've simulated is foreseeable. When you actually reach the Dark Continent, the dangers you'll face will be much more insidious... and won't be easily detected."

As for Kakin, Oboro doesn't plan to pay attention anymore.

Let Ging Freecss and Beyond cause any trouble...

He is now simply waiting for the chapter on the Chimera Ant to begin.

King Nasubi Hui Guo Rou did not contact the Fills Family as expected. Oboro really underestimated his determination... He never thought that he could even abandon a bloodline like the eldest prince.

Time flies, and soon... it's time for the next Hunter Exam.

A large number of candidates gathered from all over the world.

The Association's management called Long and asked if he could serve as an examiner again.

Long rejected him.

Without his intervention this time, it will most likely be the same as in the original story, with only Killua ultimately becoming Hunter x Hunter.

Gon and Killua have entered the game, Greed Island.

Biscuit also went along.

Bisky is always present at Greed Island auction, whether it's held in Yorknew or Kakin, because the old woman is there specifically Biscuit the jewels.

It has nothing to do with the two main characters.

Therefore, we were bound to meet.

Interestingly, during the auction, a conflict erupted between Kakin's Fourth Prince Tserriednich, and his Seventh Prince Luzurus, seemingly causing considerable turmoil in the capital and threatening to escalate into war. Neither prince intervened, but the criminal organizations behind them engaged in a fierce battle... namely, the Heil-Ly Family behind the fourth prince and the Cha-R Family behind the seventh prince. Gon, Killua, and Leorio were all drawn into the conflict.

Because the gang behind Kurapika is actually a subordinate force of the Cha-R Family.

Previously, the Fills Family caused a reshuffling of the world's underworld, which more or less affected some gangs within Kakin, though not significantly. After the Fills Family failed to seize the throne, the Kakin Empire swiftly and silently wiped out all gangs within its territory associated with the Fills Family. This allowed many local gangs to rise to power and create new opportunities for survival. Among them, three families with ties to the royal family were the main ones.

Currently, the three largest criminal gangs within the Kakin Empire are the Heil-Ly Family, the Xi-Yu Family, and the Cha-R Family.

They represent the fourth prince, the third prince, and the seventh prince, respectively.

From this perspective, Kurapika intends to use the current power of the underworld as a springboard to gain the attention of the Cha-R Family, join the Seventh Prince's camp, oppose the Fourth Prince, and thus reclaim the Scarlet Eyes of his clan.

It's unlikely that he will become the Fourteenth Prince's bodyguard, as he did in the original story.

Of course, Oboro wasn't very concerned about any of this... Kim had achieved his goal.

Gon certainly grew as expected from this incident... Although the internal strife and disputes within the royal family eventually subsided, they also set the stage for the Battle of the Succession War.

Perhaps, at this moment, Hui Guo Rou has already informed the princes about the Seed Urn Ceremony... and Ging Freecss has also successfully met with the eldest prince, Benjamin.

Indeed, through their soul connection, Oboro clearly sensed one day that Ging Freecss, under the guise of being hired to treat Benjamin, appeared in the eldest prince's bedroom.

Of course, in the end... it still failed.

However, knowing about Benjamin's injury also means that Ging Freecss knows a part of Oboro's abilities.

Soul!

"Although your soul has been divided, it is not fatal...it is just slowly draining your life force. The only way to recover quickly is to find the culprit!" That's what Ging Freecss told Benjamin at the time.

But then he changed the subject, "I have a way to save your life, but even if you are cured, your physical condition won't be the same as before... The soul, or energy, is also part of life. Your basic flesh and spirit are still there, and can be slowly nourished and restored. The only problem is... time. Rebuilding the soul is unimaginably difficult and will take a very, very long time..."

The eldest prince was already skin and bones, barely surviving on a large number of IV drips to deliver nutrients, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.

Ging Freecss responded with his eyes.

Benjamin knew about the Succession War... By the time he was healed, the Succession War might have already ended, and the throne might have changed hands.

What's the point of him being alive then?

Moreover, the others may have already died beforehand...

So, in the end, Ging Freecss left.

However, of all the people the Kakin Royal Family consulted, this was the only one who said they had a way to cure Benjamin.

"Soul..."

Oboro still remembers the look in Ging Freecss's eyes when he looked back at Benjamin before leaving the room.

Ging Freecss had already figured it out... This soul ability came from Hero Island, and it was so similar to a game character, Thresh! Oboro even knew that Ging Freecss had already sensed the existence of his hidden consciousness.

The other person appears to be communicating with Benjamin, but in reality... some of the things they are saying are to themselves.

Ging Freecss realized that Thresh's character and abilities...

After all, he was a veteran player of Hero Island.

Even if he was found out, Oboro didn't care much, because the background information about Thresh was hidden, and even if Ging Freecss could make some deductions, it was not complete.

Besides, it's just Thresh...

Some things... are already too late.

Oboro only had a general understanding of these events that occurred in the Kakin Empire and did not focus on them excessively.

His main focus was still on his team members.

They subjected Menchi and others to hellish special training.

It's January now, but by early April, the threat Chimera Ant will be exposed to the public.

That was... a truly delicious feast for him.
