Finding That Power!
The transmitted rainbow light descended from the sky, revealing Oboro's figure.
In his hand were the diary and cigarettes that Gabe Vich had given him.
The diary is for when Lone feels lonely, so she can recall the beautiful memories of the past.
Cigarettes are used to relieve fatigue.
The location where Oboro teleported was a swamp on the oasis. As soon as he appeared, a large number of water bubbles appeared in the mud of the swamp and floated into the air.
Then the bubbles gathered together, forming seemingly illusory light bodies that approached him.
Long's expression remained unchanged as he raised his hand and waved it.
The space in front of him exploded, creating a vacuum zone in the area.
All living things in the swamp, along with the mud and water, were suddenly thrown into the air and splashed far away.
In a sense, the departure of Menchi and the other two completely unleashed Oboro's 'power'.
He no longer needs to worry about anything... and he needs to constantly share his attention with his teammates.
Then, souls drifted towards him and merged into his body.
Long walked forward alone.
After walking for a while, he stepped into a dense forest.
Without warning, a series of sharp, rapid sounds came from the air.
The object moving at high speed is invisible to the naked eye. It is actually a flea-like microorganism moving in space. Its speed and power are tens of thousands of times that of an ordinary bullet. It is also parasitic. Once it enters a living organism, it will lay eggs in its flesh and blood. It can be considered a dominant species in the oasis.
I strolled leisurely in the courtyard, seemingly oblivious to everything around me.
He was thinking about something.
Suddenly, a piercing sound assaulted him.
Long raised his finger and tapped his arm repeatedly. His movements were like those of a flea, so fast that they were invisible... But without tapping, the direction his fingertip pointed to suddenly pierced through the sky, and the pierced air wave rushed for thousands of meters, annihilating all the microorganisms.
It caused all the enormous trees to crack and collapse in an instant.
The situation was horrifying.
Fifteen minutes later, when he emerged from the forest, the dense woods behind him had been leveled.
Oboro put his hands in his pockets and looked straight ahead.
It seems that only now have they been able to bring their minds back to reality.
"Another dimension," Oboro murmured to himself.
The Dark Continent possesses the power to transcend dimensions! The Demon King knew at a glance that he was a transmigrator, because his soul contained memories of his previous life, which the Demon King could easily perceive. The reason he wanted to recruit him was because the Demon King wanted to go to Earth and conquer it.
Compared to this world, Earth is like a pristine, unpolluted paradise, where the Demon King can become the sole 'overlord'.
Like a missionary, he would make all humanity submit to him and create an ideal world that belonged entirely to the 'Demon King'.
Instead, on the Dark Continent, there are other high-level extraordinary beings besides the Demon King.
Oboro didn't care about the Demon King's thoughts; what he cared about was the power that transcended dimensions.
"The Demon King himself doesn't have the power to break through dimensions, but the Dark Continent must have... like Alluka." Oboro thought of something.
Alluka is a rule-based life form; as long as it releases enough energy, there is nothing it cannot do.
If you make a wish to travel to other worlds, perhaps it's possible.
There must be something in the Dark Continent that is even more powerful Alluka.
"Since I am a soul that has traveled from another dimension, the only way to cross dimensions is through the soul. It is impossible, or rather, difficult, to bring the physical body with me." An interested glint appeared in Oboro's eyes.
"I... guessed it right."
Long raised the corners of her mouth.
When he obtained the system, he noticed a question.
Supreme Will!
Willpower is related to the soul.
The system's initial capabilities were intelligent calculations and recommendations, based on memories from his past life... also related to the soul, with the system merging with his soul. Becoming the supreme will of this world, the beginning of his path of growth... may not simply mean the world of Hunter x Hunter.
It's important to understand that becoming the supreme will, besides highlighting one's personal ability and value, is not merely a means to prove oneself.
Rather, it carries a certain purpose...
With so many hero characters and skills in the game, why did Oboro choose Thresh?
Why... the soul?
"Besides conquering this place... we also need to find that power."
Long had an idea.
The message that the Demon King inadvertently revealed was crucial.
A few months later, Oboro returned to the City in the House.
He also wandered around the other thatched huts.
Nothing was found; like the deserted city the group had visited, all the humans had vanished.
It was sacrificed.
Souls and flesh became the playthings of the Demon King.
The greatest value of a worthless species is that it can bring pleasure to higher life forms.
Oboro then crossed the river and arrived at another area on the opposite bank from the thatched hut.
This place also borders the desert, but Oboro had not visited it before because there was great danger with Menchi and the other two there.
There are giant green sandworms and sinkholes inhabited by Spiders crabs with human heads.
He's going to scan the map... to absorb as many powerful souls as possible to grow stronger before finding the door.
Even just glimpsing a trace of the Demon King's power made him acutely aware of the gap between himself and the latter.
It's still far from perfect.
"These are those purple-skinned, thorny trees..." The next day, Long walked to the towering trees and looked up at the strange vegetation. On the map, these three trees stood prominently in the sinkhole. But when she actually saw them and realized how magnificent they were, she couldn't see the canopy at all just by looking up.
It is much taller than the World Tree among humans and is the largest tree ever seen.
Boom! At that moment, a terrifying suction force burst forth from behind.
The surrounding sand, gravel, and soil all shot into the sky at once, like a vast torrent, being sucked into the heavens by the suction force.
Long's legs were like long nails, deeply embedded in the ground, unmoving.
Throughout his journey, he never used his ultimate state again; his aura was fully released, and the burst of life energy was very direct... Therefore, any living being could sense him.
Like a light shining in the darkness, extremely conspicuous.
Long slowly turned around. Above her was a giant mouth shaped like a black hole. This large green monster that emerged from the ground was almost as tall as the thorny tree. Long's body was smaller than a single hair on the sand worm.
The green sandworm simply wanted to swallow Oboro in this simple, brute-force way.
Amidst the chaos of the sky, he gazed at the pitch-black creature's body, his eyes gleaming with excited killing intent.
He sensed the sandworm's 'challenge'.
"Your... soul is delicious..."
Long smiled, and then his soul fire surged around him, transforming into the appearance of Thresh.
As the billowing black mist rose, Thresh's form also grew larger as his Nen power surged.
Although it is far from being comparable to sandworms, it is already comparable in size to some small creatures.
"Bring it on!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Thresh let out a roar that shook the entire area.
He immediately swung the Chain and giant axe at the sandworm.
At the same time, from within the dark tide of Ghost Mist, vengeful ghosts and several powerful spirits emerged one after another.
A fierce battle for survival within the food chain has begun!
But the battle didn't last long, only a few minutes, before the sandworm crashed to the ground. Oboro, who was sitting on top of the Ghost Mist, slowly landed, stepped on the sandworm's corpse, and returned to normal.
"Not bad."
He smiled with satisfaction.
Stepping on the skin of the sandworm, it turned and headed straight east.
He traveled at an extremely fast pace, and a few days later...
Another corner of the sinkhole.
A terrifying creature, coiled on the earth, is falling into a deep sleep.
As a gust of sandstorm swept through the air, a person stepped forward and stood before the creature.
This monster was another prominent overlord in the pit, a large life form with a human head and a white skeletal face, a Spiders- like body, and a pair of crab claws.
Strange noises came from the skull's eye sockets.
Eyeballs, covered in blood vessels and skin, seemed to rise from inside the skull and appear in their sockets, staring directly at the tiny human standing before them.
It... woke up.
The massive body began to stand up and tremble.
This caused the ground to tremble, and for a moment the earth shook.
"Howl!"
The monster charged and roared.
A terrifying roar and a hurricane swept over us.
It sensed the provocation from humans.
"Don't be angry... We must carry this game through to the end to determine who is the top dog in the food chain." Facing the pungent stench and the roaring intimidation, Long remained calm and slowly stepped forward.
After uttering those words, his killing intent, accompanied by his will, pierced straight into the monster's head like an invisible blade.
Surprisingly, the crab, which was originally preparing to attack, suddenly shrank its eyes and began to retreat.
Immediately afterwards, he turned and ran.
Oboro then disappeared from the spot...
It appeared on the monster's cheek the instant it retreated.
Oboro's seemingly tiny foot slammed into the human-headed crab's cheekbone with astonishing force.
With a bang.
The monster's skull-like facial bones shattered instantly, leaving cracks everywhere.
Such an amazing physique and strength was actually knocked off balance by this kick and fell to the ground.
"Don't waste the genes that allow you to evolve to this level..."
With a cold expression, Long finished speaking and charged forward like an anti-aircraft gun.
One-Punch Man and kicks were relentlessly aimed at the vital points of the large creature's body.
This is a very funny and unbelievable scene.
Compared to the human-headed crab, Oboro's body was as small as a microorganism, but the power generated by his swings caused the latter to suffer repeated setbacks, injuries, trembling bodies, and frequent falls.
This time, Oboro took a longer time.
It took him almost half an hour because he didn't use his soul power.
It was not a physical attack.
However, the man-headed crab eventually died, its body riddled with holes.
The blood flowing from its massive body alone formed a liquid resembling a lake in the pit.
Oboro sat on the monster's body, reaching into its flesh and tearing at it casually. He grabbed a piece of meat with his fingertips and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it.
Striking such a large creature, especially a tyrant, consumes a great deal of his strength, and he needs to replenish it.
"That's what makes it interesting... not exploration, but conquest."
