Three-Hour Death Battle

"Attack."

Kurapika gave the order.

Four figures charged out at once.

Gon rushed to the front, layers of reinforced Nen wrapping around his fists as his muscles bulged. He slammed head-on into the foremost cluster of Breeders.

Bang!

A dull boom erupted.

The chests of the first three Breeders caved in from the blow, the sound of shattering bones clearly audible.

Their massive bodies flew backward, knocking over a whole mass of monsters behind them.

Gon landed, his fists going numb.

Before he could catch his breath—

The three Breeders on the ground moved.

At a speed visible to the naked eye—

Their collapsed chests swelled back up, shattered bones crackling as they healed completely within seconds.

They swayed to their feet, the vertical slits in their grayish-white faces opening wider as they let out piercing shrieks.

Then they lunged back even more ferociously.

"What?!"

Gon's pupils contracted.

A normal Nen user would have died instantly from that punch.

Yet against these monsters, it had been no more effective than a scratch?

Elsewhere—

Leorio raised his hand and fired a long-range Nen Bullet.

It struck a Breeder squarely in the head.

Half its head exploded on the spot.

The Breeder swayed, then collapsed with a thud.

"It worked!" Leorio's eyes lit up.

Before his words had even faded—

Flesh buds at the fallen Breeder's neck writhed madly.

Half a head regrew at an absurd speed.

It was even larger than the original.

It stood up again, completely unharmed.

Leorio was dumbfounded.

"What the hell are these things?!"

Kurapika drew his blade, sweeping his chain blade across.

A cold flash streaked past.

The five Breeders in the front row were cut in half at the waist simultaneously.

Their upper bodies hit the ground while their lower halves kept charging forward.

Then—
