Chapter 193: Taking action × Hisoka × Breaking in
Everything had been arranged. All that remained was to wait for Slaka to act.
And the timing was close to Joey's estimate. At six in the morning on the eleventh day of the voyage, Slaka made his move!
The first to suffer was Hasuto, the Third Prince's Personal Guard, who shared a room with Slaka.
Although Kurapika had already finished testing Hasuto, meaning Hasuto had become a Nen user, he was still utterly unable to resist Slaka's surprise attack. Slaka's dagger pinned him straight to the bed.
Everything happened too fast!
But for Joey, all of this took place within his En. Naturally, he noticed the problem the instant Slaka acted.
He simply neither stopped Slaka nor tried to save Hasuto.
The fact that Slaka could act against Hasuto proved one thing: Hasuto harbored ill intentions toward the Twelfth Prince.
In Joey's view, there was absolutely no need for someone like that to remain alive.
There were also two other people in the Guard Room with Slaka. They had returned to Room 12 after the Thirteenth Prince's death.
Neither fell victim to Slaka. After assassinating Hasuto, Slaka pushed the door open and left the Guard Room under their nervous gazes.
He kept muttering something under his breath.
But the instant he left, the two behind him drew their guns and fired three shots in succession.
All three shots targeted Slaka, but not a single bullet hit him, because the moment he left the Guard Room, Slaka unleashed the basic physical capabilities of a Nen user.
He lunged straight at Sakada, who was stationed in the hall.
Before he could reach him, however, Juan on the other side-Hisoka-had already smiled. As he raised his hand, a playing card appeared between his fingers.
