Movements and Taboos

"Hahahaha! Is this the power?!"

Inside the Fourth Prince's room.

Standing in the middle, Tserriednich felt the Nen Aura surging within his body and laughed heartily.

The excitement in his voice was obvious to anyone, even bordering on mania.

He could clearly feel the amplification this power brought to his body; there was no doubt about that.

Tada stood to the side, his brows slightly furrowed.

That's too fast.

The Fourth Prince learned Nen ability too quickly.

The most terrifying thing is that the way the Fourth Prince learned Nen ability was not caused by her hitting him.

As the Prince's bodyguard, she couldn't possibly lay a hand on Prince; her only purpose was to help Prince learn Nen ability quickly.

After all, once the Aura Nodes are opened and the induction is successful, if the opponent doesn't have good aptitude, it's tantamount to killing them, especially in this Succession War.

Therefore, although Tada had given it some thought beforehand, they ultimately agreed to the other party's request to learn from them.

Because even a genius would need several months to learn using normal methods.

Not to mention, because of his status as Prince, he has to take things slowly.

During this time, open the Aura Nodes and learn to "entwine".

This is just the most basic first step. To possess true power, years of dedicated practice are essential.

However, only one day later...

From explanation to practice, and then to mastering "entanglement".

It only took less than a day.

Is it because of the Nen Beast?

Tada couldn't help but look behind the other party at the monstrous Nen Beast, which sent chills down his spine just by looking at it.

But even so, it's too fast.

What incredible talent!

Or rather, a monster.

"Was that damn guy using this kind of power to intimidate me before?"

Having mastered this power, the Fourth Prince immediately thought of Kevin, whom he now hated to the core.

He absolutely wanted to keep the other person submerged in a jar, forever trampled under his feet.

"According to what you've said, Prince, the other party must be a Nen user, and a Nen user with considerable strength at that."

Tada couldn't help but ask.

He wondered what kind of person could inspire such resentment in the Prince.

"His name is Kevin, and he seems to be quite famous."

The Fourth Prince looked at Tada, as if he had just thought of something.

If Kevin possesses Nen ability, and is strong enough, would he be well-known within the Nen user community?

Could Tada, also within this circle, possibly know something?

"Kevin?"

Tada was taken aback for a moment.

As guards, they were naturally not allowed to enter the banquet and could only wait outside.

So he didn't actually know who had clashed with the Prince, and the Fourth Prince had been in a rage ever since he returned.

Kevin: No, and I never intended to talk to these guards.

"You know them? Looks like they're quite famous in your circle."

The Fourth Prince's lips curled into a malicious grin.

Tada looked at the Prince.

"Tell me, little Tada, tell me everything about this Kevin."

Tada felt a gaze upon them.

It belongs to that Nen Beast.

The other person seemed to be warning her not to lie, even though she had no intention of lying.

"If it's Kevin, then I advise you, Prince, to avoid conflict with him during the Succession War."

Upon hearing Tada's serious words, the Fourth Prince frowned, sat back on the sofa, and poured himself a cup of tea.

He drank steadily, but Tada knew that the Fourth Prince was furious.

Tell me about it.

"Before last year's Chimeric Ant crisis—"

"Wait, what's Chimeric Ant crisis?"

The Fourth Prince immediately interrupted and asked.

"It's the Biological Disaster that was previously reported in the news, which caused the destruction of a country and tens of thousands of casualties."

Upon hearing this reminder, the Fourth Prince immediately remembered.

He hadn't paid attention to this information at the time, but he had heard about it and only knew that it was Biological Disaster.

Seeing that the other person was thinking, Tada continued.

Before that, this man Kevin was said to run a very high-level [Pharmacy], selling all sorts of powerful potions.

"However, tourists can only purchase one potion per year. To get better potions or buy more potions, Member Card is required."

He then added, "I don't have Member Card."

"However, I've used one of the potions they sell, and even the lowest grade one was very effective."

"The drug has played a very good role in the various disputes of recent years, so it is very famous in the Nen user community."

As if to prove himself, Tada reminded him.

"Almost all the Nen user on the ship likely possess Kevin's potion, some even having more than one."

At least he knew that each of the private soldiers definitely had them.

At this point, Tada changed the subject.

"But just last year, the Chimeric Ant crisis was resolved by the other side and the current Chairman of the Hunter Association."

"The news that the public knows is fake. The real news is that Chimeric Ant are a very powerful humanoid Chimera Ant species that eat humans and reproduce Demonic Beast with human genes."

"They can also learn Nen ability, and they are born with them, making them extremely powerful."

"According to many sources, their battle even altered the terrain to some extent. Many sources also say that Kevin was the true resolver of this incident, and that his strength may be comparable to that of the Hunter x Hunter Chairman."

"And Netero, the Chairman of the Hunter Association, is known as the most powerful Nen user of this century."

After listening to the other party's brief introduction, the Fourth Prince fell silent.

He wasn't stupid; he was just angry at Kevin's sudden humiliation. He was also angry that he almost did something undignified under Kevin's pressure.

Even if he were arrogant, he wouldn't believe that he could cultivate this new ability to the point of being able to rival the number one in just a few months.

That's not just simple arrogance, but utterly unattainable stupidity.

Tada's frank words just now were, in a way, a form of admonition to him.

He was advised not to provoke his opponent during the Succession War, otherwise he would inexplicably have another world number one to influence him.

They are still hostile.

That would be absolutely detrimental to the entire Succession War, and for him, it was certainly the case.

The best way to retaliate is to wait until he becomes King; it's not feasible now.

He couldn't let his vengeful nature drag him into the mire of defeat. His only goal was to win this Succession War and truly inherit the King, at which point any grudges could be dissolved.

Even without resolving the issue, one can still use their power to kill the other party.

He gripped the cup tightly in his hand and finally let out a long sigh.

Tada breathed a slight sigh of relief; she knew the other party had come to a realization.

Which Prince should we choose?

Pairo asked, looking at Kurapika in front of him.

Kurapika brought back instructions and various messages from his uncle.

If you want to eliminate the Fourth Prince and gain a deeper understanding of the Succession War, you need to contact a Prince and obtain his assistance.

"My uncle said the Fifth Prince and Ninth Prince were much cleaner."

Hearing this, Pairo nodded.

In other words, these two Prince certainly did not commit many sins, which was in line with their moral values.

This also aligns well with the intelligence we have.

However, at this point, Kurapika was also somewhat helpless.

"But finding Prince to cooperate with is not easy; apart from those who are too young, there are only a few others that can be found."

"Only the Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince meet the requirements, but they are Prince after all, aren't they?"

"If they had known we were going to disrupt the Succession Ceremony, they probably wouldn't have agreed at all; instead, we would have been immediately labeled as the enemy."

If the main purpose is not stated and various excuses are used to evade the issue, then it is very obvious that trust may not be effectively developed.

None of the Prince were easy to deal with.

"No rush. Let's gather information first, get to know these two Prince better, and then we'll make a proper choice."

The two then discussed the matter in more detail.

The schemes and plots of those above are meaningless to those below.

The three lower floors are home to nearly 200,000 people, all of whom are bold enough to be among the first volunteers.

They either have their own ambitions, possess a special skill, or are unwilling to lag behind others.

Regardless, these 200,000 people can be considered among the best in today's society.

Because of the diverse and potentially powerful nature of the area, the security situation on these three floors is somewhat chaotic.

However, this had no impact on Gon and his companion, who were on their adventure.

After all, they weren't exactly normal kids.

"There are so many Nen user on the ship."

Gon couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps because a day had passed since they boarded the ship, those who had been resting and familiarizing themselves with the surroundings began to emerge from their cabins. They wandered around the ship's commercial streets and various gathering places, getting acquainted with their surroundings.

This caused some congestion on the road, in addition to the considerable number of Nen user of various proportions.

Along the way, Gon and Qi saw a lot.

Facing these two children, so carefree on the boat.

Some people cast glances my way.

Some of them had malicious glances.

The First Prince's room.

The entire room was decorated in a very military style, with everything appearing simple and efficient.

As the First Prince, Benjamin has a huge advantage in this Succession War.

As the first son, the eldest, and possessing the greatest power and development among all the Prince.

He was a military man who controlled a military academy and was also a commander.

Each Prince on the ship had the kingdom's security guards, and because of his position, the First Prince had all his Private Army placed among the guards.

It can be said that every Prince has his own people by his side, and these people are all Nen user.

Possessing such a huge advantage, he took one measure towards all his brothers and sisters: to exterminate them all.

However, plans often change.

Someone had spread news about Nen ability on the communication channel. Although he didn't like his brothers and sisters, he had to admit that there were hardly any fools among them.

The fact that each Prince has Private Army of Nen user cannot be kept secret.

His advantage of having the most Nen user naturally disappeared.

"Did you find anything? Why is information related to Nen ability being transmitted in the public channel?"

Sitting opposite him was his chief of staff.

The chief of staff nodded slightly and said.

"It's a riot. There are assassins on the Fourteenth Prince's side. Many people have died."

"As for the Twelfth Prince, a Nen user can Clone attempted to assassinate him, but failed and even made the Clone dissipate in full view of everyone."

In any case, amidst this chaos, someone leaked information about Nen ability.

Now all the Prince are seeking information about Nen ability from their Private Army.

"A bunch of cowards, nothing more than a few bells. I'll crush them all."

Benjamin said, clenching his fist tightly.

His advantage is so great that it's hard to imagine how he could possibly lose this Succession War.

Nen user is not easy.

He has fourteen soldiers under his command Nen user and have undergone rigorous training.

These are not people that his brothers and sisters can easily deal with.

The culmination of years of effort is about to unfold, and the most beautiful flowers are about to bloom.

He will ascend the Throne, become King, and conquer the world.

No one can stop it.

Seeing the First Prince, who was currently displaying great momentum, he, as the other side's chief of staff, did not try to discourage or dampen his spirits at this moment, but instead watched silently.

Although the First Prince is quick-tempered and irritable, he is able to suppress these emotions when it comes to serious matters, and make decisions and take actions in a calm manner.

It was precisely because of this that he greatly admired the other party and joined their team, becoming their de facto second-in-command.

However, perhaps thinking of something, the First Prince suddenly fell silent.

He suddenly thought of the banquet.

The first banquet after the ship set sail was naturally the first time these fourteen people from the Succession War clashed and observed each other.

Although they were all sons of the King, they were not necessarily familiar with each other, and were even complete strangers.

As for Benjamin, he didn't care about the other Prince; all he cared about was his younger brother from the same mother.

He was also the person he hated the most.

If we were to say who he disliked the most among his siblings, it would undoubtedly be his younger brother, who shared the same parents.

The two are extremely incompatible.

It wasn't just Benjamin who wanted to kill him; his brother, Tserriednich, also wanted to skin him alive.

The struggle between the two has been going on for many years and is hardly a secret among the upper echelons.

After all, due to the power of the First Princess Consort, both the First Prince and her second son, the Fourth Prince, were powerful offspring.

It was this attention that allowed him to keenly observe the somewhat frightened expression on Tserriednich's face when he went to talk to Kevin, after being frightened by Kevin.

Although he disliked the other man, he knew that Tserriednich was a proud man, even arrogant.

The fact that Kevin was able to react that way indicates that he must have used some means to intimidate the other party.

Without a doubt, it's Nen ability. It relies on the willpower that comes with Nen ability to exert an absolute suppressive effect on those weaker than oneself.

This is a very easy task for any experienced Hunter x Hunter.

Even though they were quite far apart, he could still feel the vibrant, burning energy emanating from Kevin.

Not to mention that the other party had also spoken with his father.

A powerful Nen user.

Hopefully, this won't be a problem.
