Victory X Death of the Bomb Demon

Inside the gymnasium.

After using Razor returned to the inside of the field.

Kevin has the ball back in his hands.

"The final push."

He looked at Razor and said with a smile.

All the Nen Beast transformed into energy in that instant and returned to Razor's body.

Clearly, he had given it his all.

Have all the Nen Beast returned?

Zetzela muttered to himself.

As long as both sides are powerful, the number of people on both sides is meaningless.

Everyone stared intently at the inside of the room.

Gas, surging gas.

Almost visible to the naked eye, gas erupted from Kevin's body, expanding and surging, flowing under Kevin's control towards the ball in his hand.

Razor assumed a defensive stance to receive the ball, his expression serious.

This feeling is no joke; if I don't catch this ball well, I'll not only lose the game but also get injured.

But what if you can't receive it?

Wouldn't that be being looked down upon?

The air rushing towards the ball instantly transformed into Spiral whistle—it was wind.

Razor seemed to have seen this scene and frowned.

He thought the opponent was Enhancement Type, but the attack moves looked more like Transmutation Type.

Could it be a composite Nen ability?

However, he no longer has that much time to think about it.

Kevin took a long stride forward, stretched his entire body backward, and hurled the ball out with a powerful swing.

A whistling, ear-piercing sound.

"Call out!"

The air in the entire stadium suddenly became quiet.

The ball hit Razor.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar echoed throughout the venue, followed by an inexplicable surge of wind that swept outwards, as if a gale had gathered in the center of the arena.

The howling wind swept haphazardly around them, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.

"What happened? Why is this happening?"

One of the Pirates had his hat blown off, and he could only lie face down on the ground, shielding his eyes with his hands.

Many Pirates and Nen user had no idea what was going on.

Such a huge impact, could it be an explosion?

Otherwise, how much force would it take to create such exaggerated wind pressure? This is clearly abnormal.

Zetzela also used his hand to shield himself from the fierce wind.

"Wind? How does that change?"

He immediately recognized the source of the unusual wind.

It is the ability of Transmutation Type.

Based on his understanding of Nen ability, he found it somewhat difficult to imagine how he could sense the changes in the wind.

How much time and effort would it take to develop such Nen ability?

Do you spend year after year chasing the wind?

This was the only way he could think of to experience life, to become a wind chaser.

The blowing wind did not prevent them from seeing the situation inside clearly.

The ball spun wildly in Razor's hands.

The force coming from above and the swirling wind made Razor's face turn red. He used all his strength and energy to try to block it.

However, it was all in vain.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the force of the ball sent Razor flying, like a cannonball, crashing into the stadium wall.

As the smoke, dust, and pebbles dissipated.

He then got up with a wolfish look on his face.

"We were completely outmatched."

He sighed, somewhat helplessly.

There are no skills, no limitations, and no fancy Nen ability.

Pure Qi and strength.

The defeat was so bad that no one even knew how to make an excuse.

"I lost."

After saying that.

"You really are something else."

He stood up without saying much, just like an NPC in a game.

He waved goodbye and led the Pirates away obediently.

Kevin and the others remained where they were and did not leave.

"Phew, that's a formidable guy."

Zetzela couldn't help but say as he watched the other person's retreating figure.

This guy used to be a criminal; I really don't know who arrested him.

He couldn't help but sigh, realizing that he had neglected his exercise routine over the past few years.

Faced with a battle between strong individuals, his sense of powerlessness seemed to rekindle the emotions he once had for fighting.

"Let's go, this should only be part of the mission, right? We haven't gotten the full reward yet."

It's not that you can get the card immediately after driving away Razor; you still need to go back and turn in the quest.

This was as if they had been pulled back from reality into the game.

"I'm not going. I didn't do anything."

Ganshu, seemingly lost in thought, stood up and spoke.

"Why? You were clearly one of the participants, weren't you?" Kurapika looked at him, frowning as he spoke.

At this point, suddenly claiming that one didn't participate much in the game and refusing to accept their share of the reward is truly insulting.

Kurapika frowned, somewhat displeased.

Kevin didn't say much, but walked over with a smile and patted the other person on the shoulder.

"Don't say that. You're a participant too, and you deserve the reward."

Looking at Kevin's smile, I inexplicably felt a sense of pressure.

Ganshu broke out in a cold sweat and had no choice but to nod.

"That's more like it."

He patted the other person on the shoulder twice, smiling encouragingly.

According to intelligence from within the city, after the Pirates were driven away, the NPC who issued the quest led them towards the lighthouse on the coast.

Standing in front of a square window, I activated the mechanism.

A beautiful view shone through the window into their view.

"Bang!"

A soft sound and white smoke, and the scenery transformed into a card.

Kurapika took the card; it was exactly what they were looking for on this trip.

[002- One Tsubo Coastline -SS-3]

"Make a copy for each of you."

The genuine item would undoubtedly end up in their hands, since their team had contributed the most.

The group arrived outside the lighthouse and stood on the shore.

"We've got the goods, so we're competitors now. Goodbye."

Zetzela looked at the group and said.

"This was truly an unexpected bonus. I didn't do anything special, so I'll be leaving now."

Ganshu chuckled and prepared to leave.

He felt relieved and just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

He was so uneasy.

"Etc."

It was as if the unease in my heart had come true.

Kevin, who was looking at the sea, suddenly turned his back and said.

These unexpected words put everyone on guard, and they silently increased their distance.

Speaking out suddenly at this time doesn't sound like a good thing.

Don't be so wary.

Kevin turned his head, looked at Zetzela, and said with a smile.

He then turned his head toward Ganshu.

"Hey, are you scared?"

"What?"

"Are you scared?"

"What's the meaning?"

Ganshu frowned, slowly backing away and assuming a fighting stance.

The unease that stirred my heart reached its peak.

He already knew the other party had discovered his problem, but he still harbored a sliver of hope. "I forgot to tell you, I have a natural ability to sense malice."

"Of course, players in the game are all competitors, so it's very rare for them to be friendly to each other. Most players have malice towards each other, which is normal."

"But malice comes in degrees, and someone like you is undoubtedly full of malice, even when we first met."

"Especially when you couldn't find any manpower and came back with Pairo, your malice at that time was so intense that you wanted me to die on the spot."

At this point, Kevin smiled again, his voice slightly teasing. "But as the match progressed, you clearly felt the gap in skill. Your malice was rapidly diminishing; you were afraid."

Ganshu is not a stupid guy; he's just ruthless and likes to use tricks to achieve his goals. His face darkened, and he jumped back a few times to distance himself from the others.

There's nothing we can do.

"Don't move. I've planted bombs on you. Stay where you are if you don't want to die."

Kurapika and Pairo clearly wanted to take action, but were stopped by the other side.

Ganshu pushed up his glasses, his face contorted with rage.

"I originally planned to eliminate you all after you won the battle and steal the cards from your hands."

He was naturally referring to Kurapika and his friends.

After all, Kurapika and his friends are undoubtedly number one right now.

Although Zetzela are ranked second, they don't have any exclusive cards in their hands, meaning that Kurapika has everything they have.

But if both of them die at once, he can easily pass the game.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

To make his words more convincing, he directly displayed a bomb.

"Drip, drip, drip"

A sound like a time bomb exploded over the group.

Looking at the time bomb the size of a head stuck to his right shoulder, Pairo's expression turned extremely gloomy.

He was tricked.

Kurapika looked at his right arm, which also had a bomb attached to it.

Not just the two of them, Zetzela group were the same.

Without their knowledge, they were imbued with Nen ability by the other party.

But they didn't notice.

Ganshu then began to describe his Nen ability: "My Nen ability is [Sound of Life], which is the bomb on your bodies. Don't underestimate it. I believe you have already seen people who died under this bomb."

"Without a doubt, I am [The Bomb Demon]. Every time I utter this name and touch you, I will plant bombs on you."

With this explanation, everyone immediately remembered when the bomb had been planted on them.

"What a sneaky, Rat -like ability."

Zetzela said unhappily, because he had also been affected.

That's how Nen ability are—they come in all sorts of strange and wonderful forms.

Given sufficient Nen ability, someone who is mentally calculating against someone who is not is almost impossible to escape.

In this inescapable situation, finding hope for survival is the battle between Nen user.

"And the way you would release your Nen ability would be simple: just grab me and say, 'We've caught the Bomb Demon.' But obviously, I won't let you succeed so easily."

After explaining, he softened his tone while remaining more vigilant.

Because he was afraid Kevin might suddenly attack him.

"I originally intended to use this method to snatch the card from you, but that's clearly impossible now."

He pointed at Kevin as he spoke.

Kevin, Melusina, and Nion did not carry any bombs because he had not yet found a suitable opportunity.

The real reason was that Kevin sensed his malice from the beginning, so he didn't get too close to him.

And have Melusina protect Nion, keeping her distance from him at all times.

"So, if you just let me leave, I'll disarm your bomb through my own methods."

It was his mistake that the enemy's most skilled member wasn't armed with a bomb, so he had no choice but to use this method to ensure his own safety.

"Call out!"

Kurapika acted without warning, sending out his Thumb Judgment Chain at incredible speed. Ganshu seemed oblivious until the Judgment Chain's arrow pierced his body, branding his face with the mark of a crime.

The brand, red and black, was so clearly visible.

"When?"

Ganshu was shocked. He hadn't noticed the attack at all, and was about to leave when the magic book appeared in front of him.

Another Chain flew over even faster, and by the time he noticed it, Chain was already in front of him, tightly binding his body and instantly rendering him unable to move.

"10 seconds!"

Kurapika shouted.

His opponent was much stronger than him, but he had been branded. This sin made the brand's enhancement effect last for a full ten seconds.

Zetzela had already rushed out when Kurapika made his move, instantly arriving beside Ganshu. At this moment, Ganshu could only move his eyeballs.

"Damn it, aren't you afraid of getting blown up?!"

Zetzela remained silent, waving his arms and breaking Ganshu's limbs in just a few blows.

"Aaaaaah!"

With the sounds of bones breaking and screams echoing, Kurapika retracted the Chain.

Ganshu collapsed to the ground in pain.

I'm going to blow you all up!

He threatened, but it was pointless.

The crowd gathered around, the bombs on their bodies still beeping, ticking away the timer.

"Your Nen ability has many limitations, even requiring us to explain it before you can activate it."

Kurapika looked at him and said.

The explanation just now was completely unnecessary, but the other party still honestly explained the placement and release of Nen ability in their entirety.

Only with enormous restrictions can one carry out a sneak attack completely undetected.

Zetzela also nodded and said, "The possibility of you giving us the Nen ability after you leave is very low."

"Since you've already chosen to pay the price of explaining your Nen ability, you can't possibly hide this part."

In other words, there is only one way to resolve this.

Pairo crouched down, saying, "You obviously have other Nen ability, otherwise you wouldn't have any means of resistance when the enemy counters you after you explained it."

In this situation, the [Sound of Life] Nen ability is both concealed and extremely powerful, so the limitations are definitely not small.

Otherwise, it would be too absurd to possess two powerful Nen ability at the same time.

He's not Uncle Kevin.

With so many preparations made, it certainly won't be so easy for it to explode.

He pressed his hand on the other person's wound, and another scream rang out.

"We've caught the Bomb Demon!"

The bombs on their bodies immediately disappeared, and everyone disarmed them one by one.

At this moment, the Bomb Demon lay on the ground, silently staring at the sky.

He had completely lost and was utterly incapable of resisting.

"You have two companions, right?"

Kevin looked at him and said with a smile.

The Bomb Demon turned and stared intently at Kevin, finally letting out a helpless sigh, "How did you know?"

"Because those two guys had the same malice as you, you can't help but think they're from the same gang, right?"

They even have the exact same ideas.

Two maid-like Nen Beast emerged from the darkness, each carrying a person in one hand.

These two were among the group of incompetent people that Ganshu had recruited.

They threw the three of them together.

"So now, what are you going to do with us?"

Ganshu asked.

Pairo drew a card, which transformed into a blade with the sound of the voice, and he held it in his hand.

Kurapika gritted his teeth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he silently shut his mouth.

His Chain of judgment have clearly established the conclusion that the other party is extremely guilty.

The black and red marks covering almost half of his face can be seen as a manifestation of his sins.

"To avoid wrongful convictions or missed cases, I still need to verify it myself."

Kevin stepped forward, clenched his fist, and punched each of the three men once.

"Aaaaaah!"

Screams echoed throughout the room.

The three were sent flying by a single punch, screaming in pain on the ground.

The pain contorted the faces of all three, clearly indicating it was no ordinary agony.

Let them pay the price for their crimes.

There's no point in taking a guy like that out with you.

Pairo walked over, knife in hand.

With screams echoing in the darkness, three corpses were left behind.

Zetzela stood to the side without changing his expression. It was just murder; it was nothing out of the ordinary.

Not to mention, he could also tell that these people had the means to judge the other party's guilt, and that they were certain that the other party was a heinous criminal.

No, it should be said that even without such means, the other party is also a heinous criminal.

They had heard the infamous name of the "Bomb Demon" for years.

"Solving a major problem for the players here is a good thing," said Zetzela.

With the problem solved, it's time to part ways.

"Although you have gained a significant advantage, we will not sit idly by and wait to be defeated."

Upon hearing this, the earlier bloodshed seemed to vanish instantly.

Nion quickly ran over and said, "Uncle, we'll definitely be the first to clear the level. You'll just be eating dust in the back."

"Really? Haha, then let's have a competition, little girl."
