New King X The Waiting February

After processing the teapot.

Kevin then left.

Ninth Prince and Kurapika were left in the restaurant.

The Ninth Prince looked at the broken pieces of the pot on the table, picked up one piece, and examined it from all angles.

"Did it just break like that?"

Although he had only recently entered the world of Nen ability, he felt that this kind of thing probably wouldn't be so easy to solve.

If it were something that could be solved so easily, his father wouldn't have been so indifferent.

"Is that Mr. Kevin your leader? He looks very young."

To the Ninth Prince, Kurapika and Pairo could only be described as teenagers, even though they were already adults.

Kevin, on the other hand, doesn't look like he's even thirty years old.

In his eyes, he could be described as young.

However, he also knew that Nen user by their appearance.

Are there many people as skilled as him?

The Ninth Prince, holding the fragment, couldn't help but ask.

Then he saw the strange expressions on Kurapika and Pairo's faces.

"Okay, looks like I asked a really boring question."

"Let's discuss the details of the cooperation later. This ship still has two more months to sail, and I need to take care of more important matters now."

"Of course, we're not in a hurry about it."

Kurapika nodded and said with a smile.

The second weekend after departure.

The fourteenth day of sailing.

Another banquet began, but this time the entire event was rather quiet.

Whether they were guests or those who experienced it firsthand.

Everyone remained silent.

The intensity of this week's Succession War has exceeded almost everyone's expectations, even those of the participants.

Within a week, almost all the competitive Prince who had risen to power were killed or injured.

Only the Fifth Prince and Sixth Prince princes survived, and the Sixth Prince remains in a coma.

After reviewing it once, Qiduo said that this kind of coma requires Exorcist to resolve.

After all, the Sixth Prince had witnessed the Second Prince's Private Army commit suicide in front of her, and was directly cursed to death.

It's already a miracle that we're alive.

The Fifth Prince fared much better, since although the other party had been cursed, he did not succeed in committing suicide in front of him, but was instead shot dead.

The effectiveness of the curse was greatly reduced.

More likely, her weakened state at the time, combined with the effects of the curse, caused her to fall into a coma.

I recovered almost completely within a few days after waking up, and I looked much more relaxed.

The Fifth Prince didn't really want to participate in this Succession War; he was forced to do so more for self-preservation.

The current ruler is the Ninth Prince, her biological brother from the same mother and father. Although their relationship is rather distant, she did not send anyone to assassinate him during his childhood.

Knowing the other person's character makes things easier.

For those Prince of lower rank, it would naturally be even better.

They themselves weren't competitive, and even the forces behind them and their mothers only wanted them to grow up safely.

So there's almost no pressure.

Of course, the mothers of the Tenth Prince and Eleventh Prince are an exception.

Soon, the King entered.

The Banquet Hall, which had been filled with brief conversation, immediately fell completely silent as everyone turned to look at the King.

And the Ninth Prince following behind the King.

The victor in this Succession War.

In addition, there were various filming crews and even live streaming crews nearby.

Since they have only been away from Hong Kong for fourteen days, they can still use certain methods to transmit signals back to the mainland in a relatively stable manner.

So it was broadcast live.

"I am the current emperor of the Kakin Empire, Nasby Nasubi Hui Guo Rou."

"He looks rather fat," Emperor Kakin remarked.

"Today, with all of you present and the witness of all the people, I hereby issue a declaration of abdication, passing my throne to my son, the Ninth Prince of the Empire—"

After a series of pronouncements, Nasby signed his name on a document.

At this moment, the throne was officially passed to the Ninth Prince.

Because it is a modern society, even the Kakin Empire intentionally downplays the emperor's influence.

Although the emperor still effectively controlled the operation of the country.

Therefore, grand celebrations such as the coronation should be avoided if possible, which is also more in line with the Ninth Prince's philosophy.

Then came the Ninth Prince's speech.

After a brief process, the banquet was almost over.

There are no fools here, so no one would rashly try to curry favor with them at this time.

After all, the Ninth Prince's political ideology has never been hidden from the beginning. Those gathered around him are mostly commoners and elites who have risen from the ranks of the common people.

They had almost no conflicts of interest with the surrounding wealthy and aristocratic classes, and even had some conflicts with them.

Rushing in at this time will only breed resentment.

The Third Tier room.

Inside the huge living room.

Kevin sat on the sofa watching TV, where the Ninth Prince was giving a speech.

"I thought this Succession War would last a long time, but it ended in less than two weeks."

Men Qi sat on the sofa, looking somewhat bored, and said...

She didn't pay much attention to it, and by the time she started paying attention again, it was already over.

Are they really that vulnerable?

Killua, who had returned, sat on the stool next to him, swinging his legs, and asked regretfully.

He knew Kurapika and Pairo were in charge of this, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

The more important thing is that Kevin has taken care of their prey, so they are feeling a bit down now.

Gon next to him looked the same way.

They were quite excited, after all, they had worked hard on the ship for a week.

To everyone's surprise, key members of the opposing side walked right into Kevin's trap.

They're really courting death.

Foolish prey.

"I actually find it strange that Pariston and his team are keeping such a low profile."

Buhaci, standing nearby, was gnawing on a piece of roasted leg when he spoke.

"That's not surprising. When Kevin boarded the ship before, he unleashed a burst of power from the old man and also had a brief exchange with Beyond."

Having ascertained Kevin's strength, and to avoid losses before even reaching the Dark Continent, they will naturally keep a low profile.

Biscuit explained to the others from the side.

Assuming the other person is of normal intelligence and does not have any mental abnormalities.

Therefore, we should judge the other party's behavior based on their goals.

What is more important Beyond's team?

Exploring the Dark Continent, of course!

The other side has been preparing for this for fifty years, and is already on its way to its goal.

To provoke a powerful enemy under these circumstances would be extremely foolish. If Beyond really did that, Biscuit would suspect that Beyond was mentally unstable or was plotting something even more outrageous.

The current low profile is actually normal.

"I heard from Kurapika that those Prince's Nen ability were all very powerful, so how did it end so easily?"

Feeling a bit bored, Gon lay on the table, when suddenly he remembered something interesting and asked curiously.

Each person possesses Ant Language, and this language has a team channel.

So they communicate on it from time to time.

Upon hearing such a question, Biscuit's desire to teach immediately arose.

Especially when faced with gifted children like Gon and Guy, Biscuit's desire to teach them is simply irresistible.

Previously, in order to suppress this desire, she would not even meet with the two of them too often, but now that they are a team member, Biscuit's desire to teach is no longer concealed.

"Because they are fighting for power. You two must remember that not everyone will chase after their prey like you Hunter x Hunter. For them, power is the most deadly thing."

"That's the supreme power of a nation, so they'll use any bloody means possible. There are no moral boundaries or bottom lines between them; everything is aimed at preventing the other from killing the other."

At this point, Biscuit's expression became very serious.

"This isn't some intelligence battle using Nen ability; it's a brutal, ruthless slaughter, far more bloody than any Nen ability combat."

Let's see what happened in this Succession War, all within just one week.

Infiltration, traitors, assassinations, poisonings, curses, and massacres causing panic----

Various methods have emerged one after another.

"But such behavior is confined to a certain range, and there are restrictions between them, yet they are so close together."

"Of course, the most important thing is that their strength is not equal. Some don't want to participate, some want to participate but are not strong enough, and in terms of strength, only two people know the information about Nen ability."

Under these rules, Kurapika and Pairo, as outsiders, find it very useful to constantly gather information.

Especially with Pairo's abilities, under these circumstances, he was simply unstoppable.

This was even without Pairo being fully committed.

If Pairo is willing to sacrifice some lives, then this Succession War can be considered a one-man show by Pairo.

By simply modifying the visuals, it would be too easy to kill these Prince.

It's important to know that none of these Prince possess Nen user.

After a brief chat.

Kiy slumped onto the table, saying listlessly.

"How boring! We have to stay on the ship for two whole months."

Kevin took a sip of tea and glanced at him.

"Haven't all the members of that gang family been found and dealt with yet?"

"You should know that they can kill people to level up, and once they kill someone who reaches level 100, they become a force that can continue to spread."

"So you can just target them and get rid of them, since you have nothing else to do, right?"

Upon hearing this suggestion, Qi immediately became interested.

He grabbed Gon and ran outside.

The Koala then followed, carrying its wine jug.

"When did their relationship become so good?"

Men Qi was somewhat puzzled.

Isn't Koala a rather aloof person?

"For an adult like him who has seen through the illusions of life, aren't innocent children exactly what attract them?"

Melusina winked beside her and said with a smile.

The next two months' journey will reach a bottleneck, and nothing much should happen next.

Now all that's left is to wait quietly, to wait for the day we reach this Imaginary New Continent.

Once they get there, they will begin their real operation.

But there are other things to do before that.

Belores then walked over, took a mechanical Pocket Watch from his pocket, and handed it to Kevin.

"Here's what you wanted. Take a look and see if it meets your standards."

Kevin took the mechanical Pocket Watch and looked at it.

It's clear that this is a purely mechanical structure, but it's made with great care.

The dial has only one hand, and the surrounding rings represent a total of ten seconds.

In other words, this is actually a pocket Pocket Watch with a ten-second second hand.

The purpose of creating such a thing is self-evident; Kevin intends to use it as a vessel to bear the Resentment of the Fourth Prince.

"Oh, right, and this too. I really don't know why they make things like this; it's disgusting."

Belores grumbled, pulling two more round marbles from his pocket.

Kevin took the marble.

Although it's called a marble, it's actually a special type of amber made of glass. And what you can see encased in the center of the transparent amber is actually an eyeball.

The two marbles are like a pair of eyes.

If you look closely, you'll notice a circular indentation in the center of the dial, and another circular indentation on the back of the dial.

It's just the right size to hold two eyeballs.

These two eyes look very much like human eyes, but they are not actually human eyes; they belong to a very rare animal.

It is an extremely rare collection of organs from an animal that was almost declared extinct, with no sightings reported in at least the last five years.

The reason for its extinction was that this bird's eyes were very similar to those of humans, even in size.

These were items Kevin had ordered beforehand, delivered by Drone, and they cost him quite a bit of money.

It was purchased through the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches channel.

After all, if Kevin hadn't intervened, the Fourth Prince's Resentment would definitely have Resentment to the other's eyes.

Therefore, to avoid any problems with this first attempt at making Nen tool, Kevin should try his best to replicate it perfectly.

On the other side.

The Beyond and others.

They all sat in the hall watching the news of the Ninth Prince's ascension to the throne.

In this relatively quiet atmosphere, Pariston spoke up at a very inopportune time.

"Don't you feel resentful? After all, you also had designs on the throne, didn't you? And yet you just stood by and watched your son die."

Pariston's untimely remark drew resentful stares from many people nearby.

--

I really want to tear his mouth apart.

However, Beyond sat on the sofa, seemingly unconcerned.

"As I said before, the most important objective is to explore the Dark Continent; all other actions serve this purpose."

After saying that, there was no need to continue.

Is Kevin really that amazing?

One of his companions couldn't help but ask, "To be honest, without witnessing it firsthand and without experiencing a clash of forces, it's hard for him to imagine."

It's hard to imagine that Beyond would simply give up any confrontation or competition with his opponent.

"Would you like to give it a try? I'd be happy to play matchmaker."

Pariston said with a smile.

Don't smile at me.

The man also cursed back without any politeness.

However, things quieted down afterward.

Perhaps Kevin is really that amazing.

But Beyond simply said...

"I may die, and I am certain to be injured. As for you, some of you will certainly die at my hands."

Therefore, it's unnecessary.

That makes it much clearer.

No need.

There was no deep-seated hatred or significant conflict of interest between the two sides.
