Interception X A Pervert

"What do you want? Who are you?!"

Ankora shouted loudly, a hint of panic on his face.

His vehicle was stopped on a suburban road, and several cars surrounded him from all sides.

The two bodyguards sitting next to him had already drawn their pistols and shielded him in the center, but looking at the several cars outside and the rifles that these people took out of the trunks when they got out of their cars, their hearts sank.

The bodyguard beside him could only tilt his head and advise, "We have absolutely no ability to resist. If we rashly retaliate, it is very likely that you will be implicated."

Whether you say he was trying to protect himself or was genuinely thinking of his employer, it doesn't matter, because this is the truth.

Pairo stood beside the car, looking at Ankora inside, who appeared slightly panicked.

"Come down."

The group had no choice but to get out of the car. Although Ankora looked terrible, he remained relatively calm and observed Pairo carefully for a while.

"Are you from Red Stone Pharmaceutical Group?"

While Pairo and Kurapika may not be exactly glamorous figures, they certainly bear the label of Red Stone Pharmaceuticals.

For a rival company like Ankora, knowing about Red Stone Pharmaceuticals is very important, so he had seen Pairo in some documents.

Then he immediately realized what was happening.

"Are you here to steal my eyes?"

Pairo's eyes reddened slightly, as if to show him his Fiery Red Eye.

"Looks like you're not completely stupid."

Ankora let out a sigh of relief, looking somewhat dejected. He hadn't expected the other party to be so fast. In fact, he had considered the possibility that the other party might resort to violence to seize the item after he left.

This kind of thing is not uncommon; as long as you do it quickly enough and have enough information, it's very easy to do.

They have enough people to do the dirty work.

Otherwise, where did all these gangs come from?

That's why he returned home without hesitation, picked up his collection, and left. From thinking to taking action, it took him no more than half a day.

Who knew that he would be intercepted that very night? Clearly, the other party had made thorough preparations and had already considered the possibility that he might refuse.

"Why? My public image should give you a lot of confidence."

Because that's just how it is. If it weren't for the Fiery Red Eye to acquire something, but rather some other, more valuable collectible, there would be absolutely no problem in buying it with money.

Unless the other party intends to rob or steal from the beginning, wouldn't talking to you about buying something just alert them?

Pairo simply smiled and offered no explanation.

Did he have to tell them that they were monitoring all the Fiery Red Eye?

Especially in places where the Fiery Red Eye are stored.

Although the existence of Fiery Red Eye is extremely precious, the problem is that it is, after all, just one of the human organs, and it is extremely fragile.

If it gets damaged in any accident, Kurapika and the others will be furious.

So when the other party refused, Pairo immediately decided to organize a team to seize it, without needing to conduct any prior investigation or location.

"If it's just for my eyes, then there's no need to hurt me, is there? Take it if you want it. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about what happened today. Even if I did, it wouldn't make any difference, after all, you're a big corporation, aren't you?"

Ankora spoke slowly.

He calmly told Pairo not to act impulsively, after all, Pairo looked rather young, unlike some old businessmen or politicians.

And what he said was indeed true.

If the goal was simply to steal the eyes, there was no need to kill him. Killing him for the eyes would only create more trouble.

He still values his life.

Security personnel had already entered the vehicle and dragged the well-protected box out.

Upon opening it, I saw the Fiery Red Eye protected inside.

After confirming that everything was intact, he turned around and nodded to Pairo.

Only then did Pairo have the mind to look at Ankora.

"Tell me, why were you so unwilling to sell the Scarlet Eyes? And why did you so decisively transfer them that very night, practically abandoning your other collections?"

"Pairo asked."

This is what he wants to know; he needs to have a thorough understanding of everything related to Fiery Red Eye.

Could it be that other forces are collecting these eyes?

Pairo pondered the possibilities.

Ankora opened his mouth, wondering whether he should tell the other person.

After thinking about it for a long time, I realized that there really wasn't anything to hide.

At least compared to his own life, there was no benefit in hiding it, so he spoke up without hesitation.

"It's very simple. This is the Kakin Empire. I've heard that the Fourth Prince has a certain fondness for Fiery Red Eye and has secretly sent his subordinates to bid on some items."

"The reason my company was able to receive local government support and policy assistance in the Kakin Empire is because I had previously collected two pairs of eyeballs and given them to him as Gift."

"Therefore, the Scarlet Eyes are far more important to me than any of my other collections. The reason I acted so quickly is because I decided to give all of these pairs of eyes that I have collected to the Fourth Prince."

"That way, we might get some more help and be able to get my group through this crisis. That would be many times more profitable than selling it to you directly, wouldn't it?"

He shrugged as he spoke.

"I'm just a businessman."

Upon hearing the other person's words, Pairo pondered for a moment.

To be honest, he believed it after hearing it, because the information he knew matched what the other party said.

The other party was indeed unaware of Nen ability and had no personnel protecting them; they were just an ordinary President.

And the Kakin Empire was indeed just as he described.

This world—no, human society—is composed of six continents.

Of course, for Pairo, who knew about the Dark Continent, it could only be described as six small islands in a lake.

Each of these six continents gave rise to the largest national regime.

But the highest leader is V5, which is a union of the five most powerful nations.

The largest continent Aijin Continent, located in the northeast of the world, does not have a single V5 nation.

Although there isn't one, there is a nation whose size rivals that of a V5 nation. In some ways, it can be considered the strongest nation below the V5 nations.

The Kakin Empire.

This country has King and Prince.

Based on the intelligence gathered by Pairo, the Prince of this country can be considered Prince with real power.

Regardless of gender, anyone born to the King is eligible to compete for the King.

The supreme leader of a country, and not elected.

Anyone familiar with ancient history knows that this involved bloody struggles.

According to some older intelligence, the King will be chosen through a bloody competition among the Prince.

Those who failed, it is said, were never seen again.

Therefore, unless they are at the very top level, all the powers in this country have to choose sides.

Since ancient times, no one can resist the allure of joining the dragon's path unless they have no desire to rise in rank. This is especially true for the people of the Kakin Empire, and even some foreign forces want to get involved, which is not surprising at all.

As for the Fourth Prince, Pairo and his group had been gathering information about him for many years.

Because the opponent has the most eyes in their possession.

There are ten pairs in total, but the problem is that they are also the hardest to obtain.

The other party is Prince, and the Fourth Prince at that. His public profile is extremely positive, and he is a strong contender for the King.

They have no shortage of money or power; acting rashly might even anger the other side's government.

This is no joke.

While Hunter x Hunter have many privileges, these privileges do not include arbitrarily harming or offending the highest levels of a nation.

After all, the Hunter Association is ultimately subject to the top levels of these countries, and V5 can even explicitly order the Hunter Association to do certain things.

After all, these countries grant Hunter x Hunter special privileges, not so they can offend them.

Once investigated and discovered, a warrant for arrest is practically certain.

Therefore, Kurapika and his friends never considered taking it by force from the beginning, saving it for last as the most troublesome scenario.

I didn't expect to run into them so soon.

Ankora observed Pairo deep in thought but did not disturb him, knowing that the other was making a choice.

Firstly, he clearly knew that the key to whether the other party would let him go lay in whether they feared the power of the Fourth Prince.

If you are afraid, how afraid are you?

If fear is so great that it spares one's own life, then the eyes will not be taken away.

If I weren't so afraid, I might have lost my life.

Because the other party will kill you, and then use your eyes to prevent you from revealing the information here.

If you're not afraid at all, that's actually a good thing.

This means that the other party is not afraid at all of telling the Fourth Prince about the other party stealing their eyes.

He knew that no matter what he swore or did, he wouldn't dispel the other person's doubts about him.

You can't expect the other person to trust you and not talk nonsense, can you? That's simply unrealistic.

So he positioned himself correctly from the very beginning.

Just as he had expected, Pairo was pondering this information.

Are they afraid of the Fourth Prince?

Of course we're not afraid. Although the other party holds real power, he's just Prince of a large country.

While powerful, it's ultimately not V5.

Even at V5, they showed no fear.

It's just that they find it too troublesome.

This could potentially affect the development of Red Stone Pharmaceuticals and some of my uncle's actions.

After all, they all knew that Kevin wanted to obtain the qualification to go to the Dark Continent and organize a team through legitimate means.

These are situations where dealing with state power is completely unavoidable.

Not to mention, the group has indeed been developing related businesses of the Kakin Empire recently, hoping to gain access to its domestic market.

But they will inevitably collect eyes, so they will inevitably cross paths with the Fourth Prince.

They certainly wouldn't resort to violence, robbery, or theft at the outset; they would only resort to negotiation and transactions.

Unless the situation is hopeless, or the other party is truly stubborn.

Let's treat this operation as a notification.

The remaining members of the Kurta Clan have come to retrieve their eyes.

With that in mind, Pairo made a decision.

"Then we'll take the eyes. This card has the money we paid for it, purchased at the auction price."

With that Pairo took out a card and handed it to the other person, then led his group away in a car.

Only Ankora remained standing by the roadside, enjoying the evening breeze.

Looking at the bank card in my hand.

They were actually quite polite.

"Sigh, never mind, life is more important. After telling the Prince about this place, let's sell the company to him."

Today's death threats have worn him down; he'll just take the money and enjoy life honestly.

A few days later.

The rooftop of a Splendid Grand Hotel.

Inside the penthouse suite.

A pervasive stench of blood filled the room, which was lavishly decorated and covered in blood.

However, on the table in this luxurious room lay a shocking array of tools.

Various knives used for skinning, deboning, and torture were laid out on it, and the bloodstains remaining on them told others what to do with them.

These tools are being used.

"Phew, a very good piece of work. This woman seems to be quite knowledgeable, and her skin is flawless. I'm very satisfied with this one."

A naked man stood stretched out on the blood-stained floor, his body outstretched.

He stretched as if he had just finished a long day of work.

And in front of them.

It was a scene so terrifying that it could cause some people with weak minds to faint on the spot.

A bloody corpse, completely devoid of skin.

A complete, peeled human skin lay there beside them.

The man caressed the skin with his palm as if he were touching a work of art.

He was muttering to himself.

"Let's use this style for the embroidery this time. It's a nice, perfect base."

Without a doubt, this is pure perversion.

After washing off the blood, she left the room wearing a pure white bathrobe.

He sat on his sofa, with countless glass jars filled with liquid behind him, in which floated Fiery Red Eyes.

Around it, various human organs were also displayed.

Hanging on the wall are rows of human skins, like picture frames, each bearing a different artwork.

The entire room was practically an exhibition hall of human body parts.

It is evident that the owner of this collection is a fanatical collector of human organs, and even the creator of some of the artifacts himself. This man is none other than the Fourth Prince of the Kakin Empire.

Tserriednich Hui Guo Rou.

He looked at some documents on the small coffee table.

"Oh!"

Their eyes lit up as if they had spotted some rare treasure.

"I didn't expect that the extinct Kurta Clan still has two surviving members?"

Looking at the documents in his hand, he became more and more satisfied.

"He's also very handsome, and his skin looks great—he's a high-ranking executive at Xinsheng Group, perfect, simply too perfect."

He kept marveling at it, as if he were looking at two perfect works of art.

He wasn't in a hurry even after realizing the other person was withdrawing their gaze.

"It looks like we're destined to meet again. I'm really looking forward to it."
