  • Wang Gao arranged a live broadcast revealing that Raftel held a Final Stone and an unfinished weather controller, not treasure, ending the Great Pirate Era and ushering in the Starry Sky Calendar.

Ch. 249Modification

Wang Gao planned how to develop Blue Sea Star and oversaw the creation of a new form of Omnipotent Cells. On Red Spot Star, Mu Yuye and Indigo began transforming the hostile planet into layered habitats, leaving the fleet to introduce life into the newly formed Second Tree Realm.

  • Violet reported that Blue Sea Star had a preliminary population of 1.533641309 billion, and Wang Gao planned to redistribute its population and develop its resources.
  • Wang Gao, Vegapunk, Indigo, and others analyzed Gourmet Cells and used their findings with Gexi Civilization technology to create a new version of Omnipotent Cells.
  • Mu Yuye and Indigo led a fleet to Red Spot Star and launched flesh balls that grew into enormous trees adapted to the planet’s harsh conditions.
  • Mu Yuye activated the second stage, causing the trees to spread into canopy layers that absorbed the planet’s carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide and altered its climate.
  • Indigo activated Jianmu’s variant program, and Jianmu produced creatures from Blue Sea Star lifeforms for natural selection in the Second Tree Realm.

Ch. 250Pioneering

Mu Yuye, Indigo, and Sakazuki surveyed the newly transformed Red Spot Star, where Gourmet Cells and implanted genes had produced creatures adapted to its varied environments. After submitting their report and dispatching ecological managers, Indigo’s group headed to the Sigh System to transform more planets.

  • In the Second Tree Realm, Mu Yuye’s group saw a crimson python grow to a kilometer long after eating an elephant, then flee when it sensed danger from them.
  • Indigo explained that the World Tree’s creatures had Gourmet Cells and implanted Rule Genes and Rule Memes, and that the Human Reform League cultivated gourmet planets to evolve its Omnipotent Cells.
  • The group entered the magma-filled First Tree Realm, where Mu Yuye fried a dinosaur egg while Indigo estimated Red Spot Star’s ecosystem would take about ten years to stabilize.
  • Indigo said the Gourmet Management Department would send a hundred-person team to manage Red Spot Star and prevent ecological collapse.
  • After surveying Red Spot Star for over half a month, Mu Yuye, Indigo, and Sakazuki submitted an experimental report to the Cabinet and Wang Gao, then departed for the Sigh System to transform its planets.

Ch. 251Second Exploration

After a decade of preparation, Wang Gao restarted the Human Reform League’s exploration of other universes and successfully opened a Crystal Wall Tunnel to the Nameless Universe. A probe emerged in a vast landfill, giving the League a promising place to gather information about the universe.

  • The Human Reform League expanded across three galactic systems and developed thousands of Gourmet Planets, strengthening its genetic and memetic resources.
  • Wang Gao, Vegapunk, Dr. Nicola, and their colleagues studied the Wall Breaker and identified the Single-Universe Migration Rate as a factor in which universe its tunnel reached.
  • Wang Gao ordered the Wall Breaker activated at a heavily fortified site in the Kuma Constellation, and the staff sent a probe through the Crystal Wall Tunnel.
  • The probe confirmed it had reached the Nameless Universe, though the tunnel opened near a vast landfill rather than the desert seen in the Gexi Civilization’s earlier exploration.
  • Wang Gao welcomed the landfill as a useful place to investigate and as preliminary evidence that Intelligent Beings existed in the universe.

Ch. 252Junkyard

The Scout Robot adapted to the foreign universe and began examining a trash heap while researchers analyzed its finds. Robin and Dr. Qingzhi concluded the world had multiple nations and that exploring universes helped the Human Reform League study multiversal rules; the exploration remained ongoing and potentially dangerous.

  • The Scout Robot spent more than a week adapting its systems to the foreign universe, while the Human Reform League adjusted its next generation of probes using the collected data.
  • The robot scanned rubbish, and Dr. Qingzhi identified a tinplate canned-meat container with a production date indicating the world was after June 3rd, 1980.
  • Robin and the researchers examined a stained newspaper, deciphered about 86% of its text, and identified clues pointing to a world with multiple coexisting nations.
  • Dr. Qingzhi and Robin judged that the world’s industrial-era, non-unified civilization could make exploration easier.
  • The Human Reform League continued exploring alternate universes to study their rules, lifeforms, and natural creations, while recognizing that the process could be dangerous and might bring them into contact with other multiverse-level civilizations.

Ch. 253Discovery

Wang Gao decided that contacting native intelligent life was necessary to accelerate the Human Reform League’s study of alternate-universe rules. The Scout Robot discovered a vast garbage dump populated by desperate scavengers and recorded two strangers speaking nearby, though it could not understand them.

  • Wang Gao reviewed the Scout Robot’s findings and concluded that studying native lifeforms could speed up research into alternate-universe rules.
  • Wang Gao examined unfamiliar writing and determined that it was unrelated to the Smectans.
  • The Scout Robot hid in a garbage pile as bulldozers dumped heaps of refuse into a valley.
  • The Scout Robot observed scavengers risking their lives to search the garbage, while armed personnel collected their finds and paid them coins.
  • A samurai carrying a katana and a burly Han passed near the Scout Robot and spoke in a language it could not understand.

Ch. 254Survival of the Fittest

The Scout Robot observed two Indigenous People robbing an armed convoy and gathered intelligence about their abilities, society, and technology. After the scavengers and armed personnel left the depleted trash mountain, the Scout Robot headed toward another one.

  • Two Indigenous People attacked a convoy transporting usable trash, killed more than thirty armed escorts, and dragged away a truck.
  • Dr. Qingzhi, Dr. Darwin, and Robin reviewed the Scout Robot's footage and assessed the robbers as likely Tiger-class, noting the rarity of their special abilities.
  • Robin and the researchers inferred that the Indigenous People civilization had industrial technology and might possess weapons of large-scale destruction, including nuclear bombs.
  • Two days later, the scavengers and armed personnel left the emptied trash mountain and headed toward another one.
  • After checking that no large Lifeforms were nearby, the Scout Robot emerged from the Trash Heap and crawled toward the next mountain of trash.

Ch. 255Clash

A Scout Robot encountered a thread-controlling Indigenous People in the Hunter Universe and was destroyed, though its data survived. Wang Gao identified the universe and the intelligence team began deciphering its writing as preparations started for another expedition.

  • A small Indigenous People in a white protective suit restrained the Scout Robot with threads, severed its leg power lines, and tried to dismantle it.
  • The operators in This Universe triggered the robot’s self-destruct system, injuring the thread-controlling person, who escaped after treating their wounds.
  • The long-haired Muscle Man and a sword-carrying samurai inspected the blast site, followed by several other groups.
  • Wang Gao identified the alternate world as the likely prototype for Hunter x Hunter and officially named it the Hunter Universe.
  • The intelligence analysis team used Wang Gao’s suggestion and Robin’s deciphering work to begin understanding the universe’s writing.
  • The department responsible for Scout Robots presented an improved model as plans for a second entry into the Hunter Universe advanced.

Ch. 256Alarmed

The Human Reform League sent improved Scout Robots into the Hunter Universe through a Crystal Wall Tunnel opened beneath Meteor City’s garbage dump. Several groups of ability users sensed the disturbance but failed to find the robots, which stayed hidden underground and began work that night.

  • The Other-Universe Exploration Department approved a second Hunter Universe expedition and deployed new Analyzer, Supporter, and Combatant Scout Robot models.
  • The robots crossed through a three-meter Crystal Wall Tunnel and established an underground cavern 372 meters beneath Meteor City’s garbage dump before the tunnel was closed.
  • Nobunaga and Uvogin sensed the disturbance and went to investigate, where they encountered a five-person uniformed team and other ability users.
  • After finding nothing unusual, the investigators left, and the uniformed team later returned to search the area again.
  • The robots detected that the Indigenous People had left and remained silent until night, when they began their work procedures.

Ch. 257Intelligence

The Human Reform League analyzed reconnaissance abilities and mapped the population and geography of Meteor City while planning a safer underground base. Dr. Darwin reported that soil and garbage samples contained small underground insects from the Hunter Universe.

  • Robin translated intelligence suggesting that some people with special abilities could conduct reconnaissance, and Kro and Bekman analyzed their possible range and methods.
  • Bekman concluded that no unified powerful group operated near the robots, while the League decided to move its planned base beneath a plateau three kilometers away.
  • Two assistant robots rose to 44,000 meters in hydrogen gas bags and surveyed the surrounding terrain and electromagnetic signals.
  • Remote-sensing analysis identified Meteor City as a settlement of roughly seven to nine million people in a valley with little land suitable for growing crops.
  • Kro and Bekman discussed how Meteor City sustained its population, and Dr. Darwin reported that samples contained small underground insects from the Hunter Universe.

Ch. 258Overlap

At Crater Star, Wang Gao, Judge, and Vegapunk began developing artificial organisms able to survive in the Hunter Universe by combining overlapping universal rules with engineered adaptations. A week later, their samples and most test cells had collapsed, while Scout Robots continued building an outpost beneath Meteor City’s North Side Plateau.

  • At SH-13 Laboratory, Judge proposed creating artificial organisms based only on rules shared by This Universe and the Hunter Universe.
  • Wang Gao proposed using Mecha Seeds to remove This Universe adaptations during transit and add adaptations for the Hunter Universe after arrival.
  • Judge and the researchers began comparing the universes’ rules and analyzing Hunter Universe biological samples.
  • After a week, the samples had been assimilated and died, while most Omnipotent Cells in the returning Life Testers had collapsed.
  • Scout Robots excavated the underground section of Meteor City’s North Side Plateau in preparation for an outpost base.

Ch. 259Conjecture

Eleven days later, Wang Gao’s underground robots had tunneled hundreds of meters beneath the garbage plateau, while he considered the risks posed by unknown Nen abilities. He concluded that the Hunter World’s Human World was far more complicated than the manga’s known events suggested.

  • Auxiliary Robots dug a tunnel beneath the garbage plateau, moving the Scout Robot team hundreds of meters from the surface.
  • Wang Gao reviewed the Intelligence Analysis Team’s report and decided that manga information about Nen and the Hunter World could not be treated as absolute truth.
  • Wang Gao withheld further clues so the Intelligence Analysis Team could develop its own abilities for exploring other universes.
  • Wang Gao considered how Specialization abilities and Vows and Restrictions could produce unusual scouting powers, including abilities strengthened by deadly conditions.
  • Wang Gao reasoned that Meteor City had many Nen users and likely possessed forces capable of resisting Chimera Ants, but its Elders’ competing interests could have delayed their response.

Ch. 260Outpost Base

The Other-Universe Exploration Department expanded its Outpost Base and deployed robots throughout Meteor City to gather intelligence and create Parasite Puppets. After researchers studied five living subjects from the Hunter World before Assimilation Decay destroyed them, Wang Gao ordered Lucifer to capture more people and find a way to seize a Nen ability user.

  • The Scout Robot team established an Outpost Base underground, and tests indicated that Nen users generally could not sense a two-meter Crystal Wall Tunnel beneath more than three kilometers of rock.
  • On October 6, the tenth Crystal Wall Tunnel opening brought upgraded robots to the base, and Fly Robots and Parasite Robots spread through Meteor City by way of a concealed pipe and its garbage dumps.
  • Parasite Robots took control of scavengers and crows, while Analyst Robots used their network to gather intelligence about Meteor City and the Hunter World.
  • On November 8, five Parasite Puppets were transported through the eleventh Crystal Wall Tunnel to This Universe for study in Life Support Pods.
  • Wang Gao, Vegapunk, and Judge studied the five subjects, whose bodies and Quantum Souls underwent complete Assimilation Decay in under fourteen days, but the researchers still obtained useful findings.
  • After discussing the results, Wang Gao assigned Lucifer to capture more living subjects and find a way to seize a Nen ability user.

Ch. 261Plan

Lucifer’s team planned to capture lone Nen ability users in Meteor City by exploiting their sensitivity to unusual disturbances and their tendency to overlook motionless robots. Their trap captured Skunk, but a Thread Nen ability user detected the Mechanical Spider carrying him toward the Outpost Base.

  • Bekman reported that Meteor City had hundreds of confirmed or suspected Nen ability users, and the team decided to target solitary operators.
  • Robin suggested disguising motionless robots with trash, while Bohr proposed using a strange fluctuation to lure Nen ability users into a trap.
  • Skunk sensed the fluctuation and followed it to a buried metal rod, which discharged electricity and knocked him unconscious.
  • A Mechanical Spider loaded Skunk into a Life Support Pod and carried him toward the secret cliff entrance to the Outpost Base.
  • The Mechanical Spider snapped one of a Thread Nen ability user’s threads, and she traced the disturbance as it climbed the cliff.
