Reborn in the Hunter World

In the bathroom, beside the vanity, a young boy appeared in the mirror.

The boy opened his eyes and studied his reflection carefully. His eyes were red, and inside them were tomoe.

Sharingan? Pity it isn't the real thing, the boy thought with a touch of regret as he looked at his eyes in the mirror.

But the potential is strong. Since I've already mastered Gyo, does it start at two tomoe?

He felt the power within his eyes.

With the power of the Sharingan, I can finally start my training in martial arts.

The boy's name was Lucky Felix.

He was a reincarnate.

He had been reborn into the Hunter x Hunter world, and he possessed Nen abilities from birth.

His Sharingan was not the pure version from the Naruto world, but rather a manifestation of his Nen ability, "Hatsu."

He wasn't sure if his ability was a "system" or simply Nen.

Lucky was a Specialist, and his ability was "Sign-in."

He could sign in to obtain items from other dimensions. Starting from the day of his birth, he could sign in once every 12 years.

Today was his second time signing in; the first had been at his birth.

The Sharingan was the item he had received from that first sign-in, and its capabilities shifted depending on the world he inhabited.

In the Naruto world, the Sharingan possessed many powerful abilities.

Now, however, Lucky's Sharingan had undergone some changes.

In the mirror, the tomoe in Lucky's eyes shifted, changing from two to one.

One tomoe is the base bloodline state. Does it require Nen to activate and use the two-tomo-and-above forms?

Because he had only just acquired the Sharingan, Lucky had not yet fully grasped its mechanics.

A bloodline ability activated by Nen?

The one-tomo state provided innate Gyo (not merely opening the aura nodes, but the ability to see through Invisibility) and enhanced dynamic vision.

The two-tomo state added a copying ability, allowing him to replicate martial arts.

Lucky suspected it could likely copy the striking-style Nen abilities of others as well.

The three-tomo state possessed hypnotic genjutsu.

The Mangekyo allowed him to use Susanoo to pilot a giant construct.

From the two-tomo stage onward, he had to use his Nen to activate them.

The tomoe in his eyes shifted again in the mirror, turning from one to two, then to three.

From the two-tomo stage, he consumed Nen; the copying ability required Nen, and the hypnotic ability required Nen as well.

Lucky attempted to activate the Mangekyo, but found he couldn't; it wasn't just a matter of Nen output.

It felt as though there was some sort of restriction, and he could only unlock it once certain conditions were met.

But since the world is different, the unlocking conditions should be different too, right? Lucky thought about the Uchiha clan's awakening methods.

The "Sign-in" ability wouldn't make Lucky powerful overnight.

For instance, Lucky's first sign-in item had been the Phoenix from the Harry Potter World.

In this world, it had transformed into his Nen ability.

It was named Nen Beast Phoenix.

Lucky began to "close" his Sharingan, and soon his eyes returned to black pupils.

It was good that he could deactivate them; otherwise, it would be easy for people to mistake them for Scarlet Eyes.

Still, he might need colored contacts. Did those even exist here?

Lucky wasn't entirely sure.

Lucky had some understanding of Hunter x Hunter, as it was one of his favorite anime.

However, he wasn't certain about the specific timeline.

But he was sure it was before the main plot began.

The environment he was in told him as much.

Lucky was born in Keli City. That might not mean much, but this city housed the world-famous Heavenly Arena, which made his location clear.

It was a famous fighting city in the Hunter World, and the place where the protagonists Gon Freecss and Killua learned Nen.

Lucky was born here. While he wasn't exactly orphaned, it was close enough.

His father was unknown, and his mother was a sex worker. He was abandoned just days after birth. He was lucky to have survived at all.

His assessment of the Heavenly Arena confirmed that the plot hadn't started yet.

The arena was different from what he remembered in the anime. First, there was the prize money, and then there was the technology and household appliances.

There were no massive screens in the arena yet, and even the televisions were still black and white.

Matches could only be watched live; there was basically no recording or streaming.

The difference from the Heavenly Arena in the anime was quite significant.

The other indicator was Chairman Netero.

As a renowned fighting city that held a Fighting Tournament every few years, the world-famous martial artist Netero would appear here.

Lucky had never met him in person, but he had seen newspapers, magazines, and photos.

The Netero of the present was clearly much younger than the one in the anime.

Lucky had reason to believe that there was still quite a long time before the "plot began."

Once he was familiar with his Sharingan, Lucky began to plan.

Reborn into the Hunter World with innate Nen abilities, his mindset was certainly different from his past life.

What was once mere fantasy could now be realized.

Supernatural power could now be truly grasped, and he could actually participate in the thrilling adventures from the anime.

Furthermore, the many unknowns of the Hunter World beckoned to him.

What was the mysterious Dark Continent really like?

When he was reborn, Hunter x Hunter hadn't even finished yet.

Of course, to experience those unknowns, he first needed to possess great strength.

The Hunter World was not a safe place; it was vastly different from an ordinary modern society.

The Mafia was rampant, there were all sorts of wanted criminals, most countries didn't ban firearms, there were national wars, and disasters caused by Magical Beasts or dangerous species.

Even in the known world, it was far from safe.

If he had to draw an analogy, the Hunter World was actually very similar to the "fantasy novels" Lucky had read in his previous life.

Fortunately, Lucky was born with Nen, which already put him far above the average person.

Moreover, his ability was linked to "other worlds," which destined his strength to be anything but simple.

The only slight pity was that while the Sign-in ability was powerful, he could only use it once every twelve years.

That was a long time, and unless he could sign in for the ability to extend his life, his potential had a cap.

Since he had come to a world with superpowers, how could Lucky not have the ambition for immortality or "ascension"?

In the Hunter World, "Longevity Rice" existed.

Don Freecss had lived for hundreds of years.

Lucky believed that as long as he lived long enough, he would only grow stronger, and he would eventually explore every unknown in this world.

He left the bathroom and laid down to sleep.

In his heart, he had set a small goal: start by becoming a referee.
