The fierce assault of the 100-Type Guanyin whipped up surging waves of air, pushing the dust and smoke to the edges of the arena.
The playing cards Moyu had set up for teleportation before attacking had all been destroyed by the wily Netero without his noticing.
Knowing how to use Gyo and In at just the right moments in a Nen battle was a prerequisite for becoming an expert.
But Netero was a cut above.
First, he had used Gyo to see through the escape routes Moyu had laid within the dust. Then, as he raised his finger to pierce the Jumping Mine cards, he used In to conceal the traces of the aura shooting from his fingertip.
The most frightening part of this maneuver was not the seamless use of In.
It was that, while piercing every Jumping Mine card in an instant, the aura flying from his fingertip could strike again at those angles, precisely piercing the other cards Moyu had scattered around the area.
Even setting aside that exquisite control, what level of instantaneous processing power and combat experience did it take to map out the precise trajectory of every finger shot so clearly under those circumstances?
In the blink of an eye, Netero had silently destroyed every escape route Moyu had prepared.
In fact, when the split-off shadows wrapped around the cards dispersed, Moyu could sense it within a short time.
But he had adopted a blitz strategy, launching a four-stage assault against Netero in an extremely brief span.
First came a shot of Godspeed: Gun, forcing Netero to counter. Next came the Jumping Mine cards bursting from underground to surround him, followed by the Shadow Clone that passed through the earth and emerged directly between his feet.
Last came the thunderous slash from behind Netero.
