Arrogance X Everything Seen Through
In the private rooms of the first-floor restaurant.
Kurapika and Pairo are still here.
"These troublemakers must be the Ai Yi Yi family from the third floor, right?"
"I asked with my eyes closed, "Pairo asked.
Kurapika nodded and said, "It's them. The one with the crescent-shaped face who killed someone was the target Gon and the others were chasing, but he escaped in the end."
The entire ship, from the first to the fifth deck, is now in chaos.
The upper two floors suddenly entered a heated phase due to Prince Succession War, and fell into chaos.
The lower three levels are in chaos due to the deaths of Prince protected by the mafia families, coupled with the Ai Yi Yi family's indiscriminate killings.
However, the chaos on the lower three floors is still under control, and Maitai can directly send people to impose a curfew on the entire floor.
The top two floors won't work.
Because the King of the Kakin Empire was inactive, he did not intervene in the chaos at the top in the slightest.
To be honest, the current situation is somewhat unexpected for both of them.
Because for the Ninth Prince...
There are actually only three Prince that need to be dealt with.
The First Prince, the Second Prince, and the Fourth Prince.
As the Ninth Prince, who was destined to vie for the throne, he had thoroughly studied the other Prince.
There was no need for negotiation with these three Prince.
The First Prince possessed the most power, controlled the military, and considered the throne to be his for the taking.
The Second Prince was arrogant and unreasonable, especially since she was his own sister; she could never tolerate her brother standing above her.
It's important to know that most of the assassination attempts he suffered as a child were carried out by his older sister.
As for the Fourth Prince, once you understand his character, you'll know how dark he can be.
Not to mention that he was already considered a killable person by Kurapika and the others.
The other Prince were, in the Ninth Prince's view, either rational or capable of being communicated with.
The Ninth Prince himself resisted this ancient and barbaric practice of fighting each other for the throne.
Therefore, after obtaining intelligence support.
The Ninth Prince did not hesitate to target the First Prince; the two were the biggest rivals, and there was no room for mercy.
The deaths of the other Prince were the source of the chaos.
"That Hunter x Hunter named Melody has come out and started protecting the Eleventh Prince, so it seems we don't need to bother him anymore."
Because of their cooperative relationship, the two were quite concerned about the safety of the Eleventh Prince.
"Alright, I think we don't need to pay too much attention to the other Prince. With our detailed intelligence support, it would be a real shame if the Ninth Prince still couldn't win this Succession War."
Pairo nodded with his eyes closed, shifting his attention to their target.
If you observe the Fourth Prince, you can no longer use the Butterfly.
Instead, it must be protected by its eyes.
"Um?"
"What's wrong?"
"The Fourth Prince has left his room, and there's a secret passage leading down to him."
Upon hearing this, Kurapika stood up, frowning.
They were on the first floor.
Based on the intelligence we had previously gathered, the Fourth Prince should be seeking revenge against them.
Instead of choosing the uncle directly.
But now the other side is heading downwards, and besides Uncle Kevin, he can't think of anyone else as their target.
Was he going there to his death?
Pairo was somewhat puzzled.
I clearly experienced the pressure that Uncle Kevin brought me firsthand.
Why face the opponent when your own strength is incomplete?
"Let's check first. If it's true, then send the message to your uncle."
On the other side.
Tada, carrying a briefcase, followed behind the Fourth Prince.
Look at this secret passage.
"This doesn't feel like you're on the first floor; are you going down to a lower floor?"
"You have a keen sense of things, little Tada."
The Fourth Prince said with a smile.
"Why?"
Tada was somewhat puzzled.
--
In her view, there was only one reason why the other party would go to the lower levels: to avenge the humiliation they had suffered.
"Heh, don't pretend at a time like this. Weren't the things you just said just to provoke me?"
The Fourth Prince suddenly turned his head expressionlessly and stared silently at Tada, saying...
Upon hearing this, Tada froze on the spot, his face still expressionless, but his heart was in turmoil.
But within this lies a sliver of understanding and peace.
As the Fourth Prince's bodyguard, she understood this very deeply.
The Fourth Prince is a pervert.
However, the Fourth Prince's abilities and talents cannot be denied.
The reason he remained the captain of the opposing side's guard was that he hadn't previously intended to kill them.
A major reason is that the Fourth Prince is just an ordinary person.
There are so many powerful people in the world; the Fourth Prince can only be described as a pervert, and the number of people he can harm is ultimately limited.
But after Tada taught the other party Nen ability...
The ominous feeling conveyed by the other party's Nen ability made Tada realize that she had underestimated the extent of their perversion.
Because it was her teaching.
So she felt a pang of guilt.
Caught in this complex emotional state, she wanted to kill him, even though it was against her position, but she would commit suicide afterward as an act of atonement.
However, it failed.
The opponent's Nen ability is growing faster than expected.
So when she learned that the Fourth Prince wanted revenge and was going to find Kevin, she hoped to use Kevin to kill him.
Her previous words were tinged with wishful thinking, and she used insulting language to provoke the other party.
As Prince, Tada vaguely sensed a hint of arrogance within him.
The real reason why the Fourth Prince couldn't forget Kevin wasn't because of the insults Kevin had caused him.
Rather, it was when Kevin exuded his aura and pressure that the Fourth Prince retreated, became fearful, and terrified.
That terrifying scene of retreating was etched firmly into the other person's soul.
This was especially true for the Fourth Prince, who possessed the "King's Vessel" and believed he was born to be king.
That is absolutely unacceptable.
So her provocation succeeded, and it was seen through.
When he witnessed the power of his Nen ability, his sense of pride was unparalleled.
In such a situation, if one continues to endure...
The king will no longer be a king.
After saying that, the Fourth Prince turned his head and continued walking forward.
"Follow me and witness my revenge."
Tada could only silently follow.
Then they listened to the Fourth Prince's words.
"You said before, right? Even the most powerful Nen user are still limited by the limits of human physical abilities, right?"
Tada followed behind. Although she knew the other person didn't turn to look at her, she still nodded habitually.
Even Enhancement Type Nen user.
Although it can make Nen user more defensive, faster, and stronger.
But that is essentially a manifestation of the amplification of Nen Aura.
It has nothing to do with the nature of the body.
Once you enter the "absolute" state, it is essentially a state where the enhancement of Qi cultivation disappears.
In this state, the human body is at its weakest, because only the essential physical form remains.
The essence of Nen user's body is, at most, just an ordinary person who has undergone training.
There was no substantial gap.
Three floors.
In the assigned accommodation.
Kevin stayed in the living room, passing the time by looking at some documents and papers in his hands.
Just then, Chimera Ant crawled out from the sleeve, Pairo's voice reached his ears.
"Another message from above?"
Biscuit, sitting at the other table, asked curiously.
Melusina sat opposite her on the sofa and looked up.
Kevin raised an eyebrow after hearing the news, an amused expression on his face.
"It is indeed news from above, but it's quite interesting."
"Oh?"
--
"Don't worry, you'll see it soon."
I know Kevin's keeping me in suspense again.
Then, a short while later, there was a knock on the door.
No one got up to open the door.
Kevin gently beckoned with his finger, and the door opened.
Standing outside the door were the Fourth Prince and Tada, who was following behind him.
"Hello, Mr. Kevin, right? We meet again."
However, Kevin just watched him silently without making any move.
The Fourth Prince slowly raised his hand, and then entered a state of absolute stillness.
It's as if you're telling others that you have no ill intentions.
His eyes blinked slowly, and the time he kept them closed exceeded the instantaneous blink of a normal blink.
Has the Nen ability been activated?
"Yes, I know you despise me, but I'm here to talk business."
As he spoke, he waved to Tada behind him.
Tada stepped forward, opened the box he was carrying, and inside were neatly stacked gold bars.
The value of this box of gold bars is outrageous.
Its value has exceeded several hundred million.
"This is just a deposit, and it's only meant to slightly mend our relationship."
It can be said that the Fourth Prince's current behavior has taken the friendly attitude to the extreme.
At this moment, Kevin slightly raised his hand.
Only then did everyone notice that Kevin had somehow acquired an Eye Butterfly in his hand.
This Butterfly was so special that everyone's attention was drawn to it.
The moment the Fourth Prince looked over, a desire to possess it welled up within him.
Because the Eye Butterfly are so perfectly suited to his tastes.
He wanted it.
But now was clearly not the time, so he immediately suppressed his emotions.
"This is?"
The Fourth Prince expressed his confusion.
"It's Butterfly, it just looks a bit strange."
As he spoke, Kevin gently raised his hand, and the Butterfly flew away, landing motionless on a table not far away.
Kevin didn't even answer the Fourth Prince's suggestion of cooperation, but just kept talking to himself.
"You know, my Nen ability allows me to sense the good and evil in others, and when the malice within that good or evil is directed at me, it's as conspicuous to me as a beacon in the darkness."
As soon as Kevin finished speaking, the Fourth Prince decisively closed his eyes.
The Fourth Prince, with his eyes closed, said, "It seems our negotiations have broken down."
Kevin remained seated on the sofa, motionless.
"You know, Nen ability are quite interesting; many Nen ability can catch you off guard and make you fall victim to them without you even realizing it."
Suddenly, Kevin raised his hand and unfurled a hexagonal shield beside him, blocking a needle the size of a thumb.
It's a type of anesthetic ammunition fired from a tranquilizer gun.
It appeared out of nowhere, aiming at Kevin.
And that's how the ammunition was stopped.
Kevin suddenly reached out and grabbed the ammunition, enveloping it in a hexagonal Nen Aura barrier.
The Fourth Prince, who had been standing in place, suddenly disappeared.
The real Fourth Prince appeared to Kevin's side and slightly behind.
The Fourth Prince now wore a somewhat unrestrained and ferocious smile.
His face couldn't hide his smugness.
"Can you feel it? Hahahaha! This is a neurotoxin, a truly incurable poison. Can you feel the loss in your body, can you feel your own weakness?"
The Fourth Prince's emotions were surging as he glared fiercely at Kevin, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.
A surge of Nen Aura flowed through him, and two Nen Beast appeared on his left and right sides.
Melusina and Biscuit both smiled, as if they were watching a good show.
Only Tada seemed somewhat confused, yet also as if they had grasped something.
"You don't need to kneel and beg me, because there's no antidote. After you die, I'll make you into a specimen and embed you under my floorboards."
Hahahaha!
The entire room was filled with the Fourth Prince's laughter.
Kevin simply sat quietly on the sofa, picked up the tea in front of him, and took a sip.
The two are like they're not on the same wavelength, or rather, they're from different worlds.
Suddenly.
As if sensing something, the Fourth Prince suddenly jumped back and looked around at his surroundings.
The expression on his face looked as if he had suddenly encountered something terrifying.
"What is this? Why is it this kind of Nen ability again? Is this what your Nen ability is like?"
Kelly sat on the sofa, not even glancing at him.
The Fourth Prince thus became engrossed in his own world.
But Kaili's voice was able to be heard.
"Your Nen ability must be activated by entering a state of Zetsu and then using your eyes, right?"
"Then, in that instant, you can see the future ten seconds from now. When you open your eyes after seeing the future ten seconds from now, you can take action."
"Only you can change the future in these ten seconds, and the so-called 'you can change' is essentially because there is a body of yours that is living out the future you see in those ten seconds."
"And when you want to change the future in those ten seconds, the change you make is your actual body acting, only that outsiders can't see it."
Simply put, it involves using the eye to activate an ability to see ten seconds of one's future from a downward angle in an instant.
This can also include the surrounding environment in the scope of the lack of wilderness.
Then, those ten seconds of the future were fixed.
The so-called "fixed" future doesn't mean fixing other people's future, but rather fixing your own.
Even with its eyes open and movements seemingly random, to outsiders, there is still a primordial entity carrying out actions destined for the future.
Therefore, the future of those ten seconds was thus fixed.
The desire to make a change was already severed the moment the child opened their eyes.
A false self is being watched by others, experiencing the future as seen.
The true self is taking action, owed nothing to anyone, and changing the future.
So when ten seconds have passed and you've moved from your original position, it will appear to outsiders as if you've suddenly disappeared and reappeared somewhere else.
How did you know?!
The Fourth Prince's voice carried a hint of fear.
Even if one could deduce Nen ability, it shouldn't be in such detail.
It's impossible for him to know that he could see ten seconds into the future.
This is a secret that he doesn't tell anyone, so no one else can see it.
