Rely on What Ancestors? Rely on Me.

At the same time that Beyond was severely injured, a large number of private soldiers raised by the Kakin Royal Family shot out from the shadows and surrounded and protected Nasubi Hui Guo Rou.

Those who witnessed this scene were all horrified.

Because Oboro didn't use Nen at all... it seemed like he simply stomped his foot, and the ground completely cracked open.

Even someone as powerful Beyond was instantly trampled into the torrent of rocks and earth.

"Absolutely amazing? What's going on with Beyond?"

Inside the venue, besides Beyond and the members of the Kakin Royal Family led by Hui Guo Rou, there were also team members that Beyond was preparing to lead to the Dark Continent.

Some of them are Specialist Division.

It was also the last time that they wanted to help those who defeated Oboro Beyond...

"Without Nen power protection, one cannot contend with it using only physical strength and would be easily killed... However, it seems that the opponent is not using Nen either," one person said in astonishment.

"Is he dead..."

His companion muttered to himself.

It's uncertain what will happen to Beyond.

"What are you saying... How could that be..." The former immediately adopted a defensive stance.

After all, Beyond was someone who had returned alive from the Dark Continent... he had been through trials, and they had a certain understanding of Beyond's strength.

If he were killed so easily... no one would follow him to the Dark Continent.

Just as he was about to direct everyone to rescue Beyond, a terrifying scene suddenly unfolded, causing his pupils to dilate and his face to drain of color.

Looking at his companions in front of him, without any warning... their bodies underwent strange changes.

Some people's skin began to writhe, and large, fleshy lumps swelled up on their bodies. Some instantly turned completely white-haired, their backs hunched, and their faces became unrecognizable... Others were terrified, crying out, "It's over! Why can't I sense my own thoughts anymore..."

"Will, save me... I..."

The man's closest friend, within seconds, had swelled up like a balloon, looking like he was about to burst.

Will's friend reached out his hand with despair in his eyes.

But the next second, his body exploded, and blood splattered everywhere.

Bang! Bang! Bang! As if a chain reaction had occurred, everyone in the team died one after another. Some exploded into a cloud of blood mist, while others were old and weak, losing their vitality and falling to the ground to breathe their last.

Everyone died in different ways, but their endings were the same.

"Wow."

Before Will could react, he suddenly felt a sweet taste in his throat.

Then, he subconsciously spat out a mouthful of blood.

He was stunned.

Immediately, he found his vision becoming blurry, accompanied by tinnitus...

"Am I... sick?"

Will had a premonition.

As an elite-level Nen user, he knew his physical condition better than anyone. How could he suddenly fall ill? He also didn't feel like he'd been attacked...

There was no sign of it.

But for no apparent reason, he felt tired, empty, and listless, and a pessimistic mood he had never experienced before began to grow in his heart...

Then, he lost his strength and collapsed to the ground.

"My soul is sick, which has caused my body to become diseased as a result..."

He sensed the approach of death and, at that moment, had a profound realization.

Suddenly, it dawned on me.

"Exploiting the dead..."

Long walked step by step toward the composed Hui Guo Rou, saying as he spoke.

He watched the entire live stream. When Hui Guo Rou announced Beyond's appearance, Netero's photo was shown on the big screen first, followed by the introduction of Beyond. In the original story, however, Beyond did not appear in person; he only recorded a video.

He claimed that he would ensure the safety of every participant heading to the New Continent... He was also appointed by Kakin as the overall leader of the operation.

"You guys really know how to do things."

Long stared at the king, whose face was full of fat.

His private soldiers, like the members of Beyond's squad, also suffered from spiritual corruption under Oboro's influence and ended their lives.

But Nasubi Hui Guo Rou completely calm and unharmed.

It should be noted that the bodies of the people in front of him died from an explosion. Even if the force was not strong, being grazed by some bones would still be dangerous for someone like Hui Guo Rou who was used to a life of luxury.

However, despite being so close, the fat man remained completely unharmed.

There was not a trace of fear.

"So... the Fills Family is going to war with us, the Kakin family?"

Hui Guo Rou calmly.

Long's gaze then fell on something that suddenly appeared behind him.

A Nian beast.

Shaped like a withered tree trunk, with forked branches swaying like human arms, there are quite a few of them.

And each of the arm-like branches was covered with eyes, densely packed... It was unsettling to look at.

This is a spirit beast belonging to Hui Guo Rou, originating from the power of the Seed Urn.

"I never expected... that you would actually have the guts to show up here. I thought that after what happened last time, your Fills Family would quiet down a bit, and you would behave yourself, at least until we went to the Dark Continent, and we would keep to ourselves. But I never expected... that you would be so eager to die."

"That's good. By eliminating this threat and eroding the Fills Family's assets and manpower, Kakin's dominance in this world is a foregone conclusion... Consider your death as paying homage to Benjamin."

Hui Guo Rou's eyes immediately darkened.

The eldest prince Benjamin, was killed by Obo.

And the Eighth Prince and the Queen... were all sacrifices made by Oboro in his attempt to seize the power of the Kakin Kingdom.

Long ignored him and suddenly attacked, creating a blur as he struck the Hui Guo Rou.

The two were more than ten meters apart when, with a loud crack, Long Chao's attack was blocked as if by an invisible wall, making only a sound without causing any real damage.

"Defense?"

A smile crept onto Long's lips.

This is clearly... the ability of Nasubi Hui Guo Rou, a parasitic Nen beast.

No wonder... he's so arrogant.

Bang! Long reached the Hui Guo Rou, only to find he couldn't approach it... The spirit beast behind it sensed his hostility and identified him as an enemy. This tree-shaped spirit beast swayed its branches, making a rustling sound, and numerous eyes on it stared intently at Long...

Long raised his hand and touched it, feeling as if something was separating him from the fat man in the air.

"A single-type guardian spirit beast... passive?"

Long gathered his strength in his arm and struck out suddenly.

The sound of the collision was deafening, startling Hui Guo Rou so much that he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Seeing that Long remained standing still, he couldn't help but grin. "Although Kakin is ostensibly a newly emerging nation, in reality, we are one of the oldest super-ancient nations on this continent... The power passed down by our ancestors is something that people like you cannot understand or resist."

"You are like that... so is v5."

"No one can stop the rise of Kakin!"

The fat man burst into laughter.

As long as his life is safe, the Kakin Royal Family will continue to exist.

Oboro is alone. No matter how powerful he is or what he has done, Kakin's massive army will arrive soon.

That will be the day of Oboro's death.

"A defense with no blind spots, all-around coverage?"

Long was somewhat surprised that it could block his own fist.

Then, he looked up and met the gaze of the tree-shaped spirit beast... his eyes flashing with a dark light.

Wisps of black, Ghost Mist emanated from his body, drifting forward...

When the Ghost Mist touched that unseen 'wall', the tree-shaped spirit beast suddenly began to shake its branches wildly, and the eyes on the branches suddenly closed one after another, as if it dared not meet the eyes of the human in front of it.

Then, just a few seconds later, the stagnant black mist suddenly broke through the Barrier and drifted past.

As the tree-shaped spirit beast released its power, it suddenly began to make strange noises, its branches withered, and it even spontaneously combusted... burned by a burst of ghost fire.

Hui Guo Rou felt dizzy, as if all his energy had been drained, and he couldn't even stand up.

"!!!"

He was utterly horrified.

This is unprecedented.

As if strolling leisurely, Long walked up to the king, reached out a large hand, grabbed Nasubi by the neck, lifted him off his body, and pulled him up. "What... I was actually looking forward to it."

"So easily taken down. The will left by your ancestors, a kind of Post-Mortem Nen, isn't all that great..."

"..."

"You!"

Finally, Hui Guo Rou trembled; he... was afraid.

"Kakin will rise again. Since you can't rely on your ancestors, why not... rely on me?"

Long said something.

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding black mist instantly surged into the body of the Hui Guo Rou.

"Wait, wait a minute..."

"Aaaaaaah!!"
