The situation is very bad.

Chrollo appeared calm, but from the moment the unexpected happened, he was constantly thinking about the current situation.

Hisoka is a traitor, then Illumi is no longer trustworthy.

We don't know when we made contact with the enemy, and trying to find out or ponder that is pointless and a waste of time.

Illumi is a member of the Zoldyck Family, and his joining the Phantom Troupe clearly indicates that he was hired by Hisoka or by the person in front of him.

But this person appeared before them all alone.

The opponent's strength is beyond doubt.

Although the other party fled when they faced them a few years ago, it's worth noting that they rescued several people right under their noses back then.

The guy who stayed behind to cover their retreat, though influenced by Resentment, still caused them significant losses.

Hisoka would act as a spy for the enemy, and he doesn't seem to be under duress.

Therefore, there is only one purpose for making such a request.

Fighting with yourself.

But there is one very serious problem.

That means they are currently in a state of full mobilization, which means they are at their strongest right now.

If it were him, he certainly wouldn't choose to launch an attack at such a dangerous moment.

With Hisoka as an inside agent Illumi as an accomplice, their operation this time will come at a heavy price.

If the operation is carried out properly, it wouldn't be surprising if everyone died.

But the enemy launched their attack precisely at the moment they had all assembled.

Foolish?

No, Hisoka's strength is beyond doubt, Chrollo is very certain of that.

Since Hisoka is confident, his opponent must be very strong.

In other words, they were surrounded.

And they were completely unaware.

Those surrounding them must be just as powerful as they are.

Just to be on the safe side, there are quite a few.

Can we fight our way out?

He was thinking about this problem.

He was assessing his opponent's strength, but based on the series of moves just now, he felt that his opponent's strength was somewhat exaggerated.

Putting aside the Griffin the other party rode when they barged in, he could tell with his eyesight that the Griffin was Nen Beast.

He felt it couldn't be just for show.

Therefore, the opponent is very likely Emission Type, and their performance in the recent battle seems to confirm this.

A barrier to withstand Uvogin's fist, a rope formed with Nen.

However, if it's Emission Type, the problem is even more serious.

Uvogin's direct strength was undoubtedly formidable, yet his opponent withstood it head-on without sustaining a scratch.

He saw the impact of the collision clearly.

The opponent's basic stats were overwhelmingly superior, even surpassing Uvogin's.

No joke, in terms of basic stats, Uvogin is definitely number one in their group.

With immense Nen power and formidable physical attributes, both his personality and abilities are designed for pure, direct combat.

However, in a direct confrontation, he was defeated without sustaining any damage.

And it's very easy.

With all these conditions combined, there is only one outcome.

Escape.

Find a way to escape.

Kevin shifted his gaze to Illumi.

What are you doing here?

To be honest, the most unexpected thing for him when he came here was seeing Illumi.

Illumi seemed genuinely unaware of their feud with the Phantom Troupe, but he felt that Illumi wouldn't have joined such a group without reason.

Upon hearing the question, Illumi honestly turned to look at Hisoka, then reached up and pulled a mask from behind his collar.

The mark above is the spider's tag.

The meaning is self-evident.

He was hired by Hisoka.

Kevin withdrew his gaze and looked at Chrollo.

Have you decided what you're going to do?

Chrollo's expression remained calm, and in his hand was a book that had already been opened.

But it's clear he doesn't seem to have the ability to activate it.

"You're not alone, are you? You should be thinking of wiping us all out."

The other party is confident and capable, which is why they launched the attack at this time.

Machi looked out the window.

At some point, different people began to appear in the dilapidated windows on the ground floor of their building.

They are indeed surrounded.

Have you ever thought about this day?

A voice filled with resentment, even a hint of gritted teeth, echoed through the silent, dilapidated building.

Everyone turned to look.

Right next to Kevin, through the hole, stood a young man with bloodshot eyes, making no attempt to hide his murderous intent.

"Fiery Red Eye."

When Chrollo saw Pairo, he remembered who the other person was—the boy who had escaped from his grasp.

"Brush!"

The sound of something cutting through the air.

Feitan charged forward, Cane Sword in hand, and his target was none other than Kevin.

A bizarre scene unfolded.

Feitan charged toward Kevin, but neither of them made a move; they simply watched quietly.

"I've been dreaming of this day!"

Feitan's voice, filled with resentment, was forced out of his throat, and he moved with incredible speed, almost instantly reaching Kevin's side.

He swung his Cane Sword downwards.

"Bang!"

A roaring sound, mixed with the sound of metal breaking.

Feitan was thrown out at an even faster speed than when he arrived, so fast that the rest of the Phantom Troupe had no chance to catch him.

It slammed down right in front of them.

A crater was blasted into the ground.

"Cough cough!"

Feitan coughed, vomiting a large amount of fresh blood.

"Hehe, just what I wanted!"

Feitan grinned, even though he felt like his body was about to fall apart, but this was exactly what he wanted.

[Unforgivable Person!]

He was completely encased in red and white fireproof armor, with only his eyes exposed.

"Run!"

Although their Nen ability cannot be coordinated, each of them is a powerful Nen user.

Having worked together before, they had developed a tacit understanding.

When the Chrollo asked that question.

When the other side surrounded them.

When Feitan charged out.

Escape and revenge became intertwined.

"What? No way! I--"

Nobunaga wanted to say something, but it was too late.

From the very beginning, Chrollo's book was turned to the page it was supposed to be on.

Apart from Feitan and Uvogin, who was bound by Kevin, everyone else disappeared.

Of course, Chrollo, as the Chrollo and a user of Nen ability, also stayed in the same spot.

He glanced at Feitan and the bound Uvogin, then charged straight at Hisoka.

"Blazing Sun!"

Feitan roared loudly.

A Nen Orb was tossed into the air, and the scorching heat spread wildly.

That thing looked absolutely terrifying.

Without hesitation, Illumi dodged and fled.

Hisoka was initially pleased to see the approaching Chrollo, but upon seeing Feitan use his Nen ability, he realized the possibility of Feitan's Nen ability and smashed the wall without hesitation.

Chrollo had anticipated this and escaped with Hisoka.

This might be his only chance to escape.

As long as we get rid of Hisoka or kill him.

"Begin your hunt."

The group of people who had been huddled around the dilapidated building began to leave.

It only took less than ten seconds.

Only three people remained in the dilapidated building.

Have you thought about your last words?!

Feitan laughed maniacally.

He looked at Uvogin, who was hanging in mid-air.

I'm sorry.

At some point, the Nen rope in Uvogin's mouth loosened.

"Hahaha! What a pity, but it doesn't matter."

Feitan's Nen ability are two types that work together.

A type called "[Unforgivable Person]" is Materialization Type.

Fortunately, he was a Transmutation-type Nen user, and they were very close by.

Its function is the same as it is now, to materialize a suit of armor that can insulate against high temperatures.

If this were the only Nen ability, it would undoubtedly be a highly targeted Nen ability with a very narrow range of applications.

But what's truly terrifying about Feitan is his primary Nen ability.

[Blazing Sun].

At the cost of the damage he suffers, he can conjure a Nen Orb Nen Orb rises and expands, like the sun, bringing indiscriminate high temperatures to the surrounding area.

The more severe the injury he sustains, the more destructive the Nen Orb will be.

That's why he launched an attack immediately after being surrounded.

As he expected, he took a heavy punch. His opponent's strength was indeed far beyond Uvogin's; that ordinary punch almost killed him.

But it doesn't matter.

The results were better than he had expected.

This might be the most powerful "sun" he has conjured since he created this Nen ability.

However, things didn't go as planned.

He essentially wanted to use his Nen ability to force the enemy to break through their encirclement, since Hisoka had already been identified as a traitor.

Although Hisoka didn't know about his Nen ability, the fact that the other party dared to surround him meant he wasn't stupid.

Although his Nen ability is powerful, it also has many problems.

He bravely took the blow and Emission his Nen ability.

However, the opponent may also have a chance to escape the range of his Nen ability attack.

However, there is a window of opportunity.

But in any case, it can definitely create a huge window of opportunity for escape, especially when combined with the Chrollo's Nen ability.

It's enough to escape under such circumstances; there might be Sacrifice, but that's enough.

It shouldn't have happened.

If he can force the man in front of him to retreat, then the restraints on Uvogin's body will most likely be released. At that time, with Uvogin's explosive power, he might be able to escape the range. Even if he doesn't escape, he will at most suffer some injuries.

However, the other party did not leave.

The only option is to have him buried with Uvogin.

At least, this is how it should have happened.

But what is presented to him now is not like that.

Kevin jumped down.

She strolled towards him.

"Is this your Nen ability? Emission a sun at the cost of self-inflicted damage?"

"Why?!"

Feitan roared in frustration.

All I could hear was Uvogin's screams.

The ever-increasing temperature had caused severe burns to Uvogin's skin.

However, Kevin, who was walking towards him, was completely unharmed, even his clothes were intact.

Why?

If the opponent was able to withstand Uvogin's attacks and control Uvogin instantly, then their Nen ability is Emission Type Enhancement Type.

And it's very powerful.

But why is he able to withstand the sunburn on his side?

He couldn't understand it at all.

Kevin ignored him.

At this point, Feitan was almost unable to move, so that punch was not something to be taken lightly.

"You're still so fragile, you can only take one punch."

Kevin made a sarcastic remark, which angered Feitan so much that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

A light jump.

His body was level with the sun, and facing the scorching "sun," Kevin simply poked it with one finger.

"Call out!"

As if his anger had subsided, strange sounds began to ring in his ears.

The temperature dropped in an instant, as if the sun had never existed.

Feitan stared wide-eyed at the scene before him.

His armor vanished, and he collapsed to his knees, utterly powerless.

The blazing "sun" has been transformed.

It transformed into a cold, Black Sun, radiating chilling malice.

"We should have brought Little Wang along; this kind of delicious food is rare."

Kevin muttered something to himself.

Watching the sun beckon, the black sun descended, carrying boundless malice and biting cold.

Reach out and grab from a distance.

The Black Sun had almost completely turned into Resentment Ball, was immediately compressed until it shrank to the size of a basketball.

"It's still too big."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hands, hugged the Resentment Ball, which was about the size of a basketball, and squeezed it forcefully.

No sound was made, but you could see that Kevin was putting in a lot of effort.

The sphere slowly shrank until it was finally contained within the palms of two hands, becoming a Black Orb the size of a fist.

"That's about right. I hope Little Wang likes it; it should calm her down for a while."

After stuffing the Orb into his pocket, Kevin turned his attention to Feitan, who was kneeling on the ground, using only his broken Cane Sword to keep himself from falling.

Feitan was looking at him with resentment, but the fear and shock in his eyes were impossible to hide.

He never imagined that his Nen ability would be dealt with in this way.

Kevin looked at him and smiled.

"Are you shocked? Actually, I didn't intend to do that."

Since we're coming, we naturally need to ensure everything goes perfectly.

Although they were unaware of Feitan's Nen ability, Prophecy Poem are no joke.

The words "Little Sun" and "burning" have appeared before.

Kevin, who is able to withstand high temperatures, naturally takes charge of the users who possess this Nen ability.

Hisoka gave information about Nen ability to many people, while only a handful of people didn't know about Nen ability.

By further inferring from the sidelines, we can determine who is capable of using such Nen ability.

This is further supplemented by Prophecy Poem.

It was locked immediately.

"You're really extreme, but it's true. If you weren't so extreme, your Nen ability wouldn't have such exaggerated effects."

Feitan is indeed extreme and obsessive. His extreme personality caused his Nen ability to be indiscriminate in their effects on both friend and foe, and completely uncontrollable.

The cost of initiating this action is still conditional upon injuring oneself.

He's supposedly a sadist, but it seems he's actually a hidden masochist at heart.

In order to avoid being harmed by the Nen ability that he created that could lead to mutual destruction, he must have also focused on training his Conjuration Nen ability, and it must have taken him a long time to finalize the combination of his Nen ability.

"Once you create Little Sun, you completely abandon it. From the moment it appears, it ceases to belong to you; it becomes ownerless, devoid of your will."

It was precisely for this reason that Kevin was able to use his Resentful Eater Snake ability to directly inject it, transforming it into Resentment Ball.

He only wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect to succeed so easily.

There was absolutely no resistance.

"Call out!"

A sound of something cutting through the air.

Kevin tilted his head slightly, dodging the powerful punch.

The fist was charred black, the skin completely dried and cracked, revealing the blackened and reddish flesh underneath.

"Sigh, can't you just calm down for a bit?"

With a thud.

Uvogin, who had originally attacked him from behind, fell to the ground.

The Syringe Kevin had casually stuck into him disappeared.

"This potion will put you into a state of near-death for half an hour. Be quiet for a bit and enjoy your last moments."

Having entered a place with absolutely no support, Uvogin, who had been severely injured by the scorching sun, collapsed to the ground, completely unable to move.

His face, now completely transformed into that of a demon, still stared at Kevin with eyes that seemed about to pop out of their sockets.

But by this time, due to the burning sensation, he could no longer speak, only uttering hoarse sounds that seemed to come from hell.

"Feitan, you've done this to your comrade, aren't you going to apologize? Or did you already apologize?"

Feitan stared at Kevin with Resentment Poison eyes, gritting his teeth.

"You will die a horrible death, and the others will avenge us."

Kevin simply shrugged helplessly and sat down on the nearby gravel.

"You know what? I always thought you were some kind of heartless villains. I was quite shocked when Hisoka said that some of you were very close."

As he spoke, he glanced at the two of them, ignoring their Resentment Poison gazes.

"I didn't expect it to actually be like that."

I saw Kevin sitting here leisurely.

Feitan suppressed his emotions and asked, "Aren't you going to chase after the others? What awaits you then is an eternal threat of death."

"You've really underestimated me. Now that I'm here, none of you will escape."
