Level up in HxH - Chapter 8

Chapter 8: The battle between two madmen

“This is about Zoldyck family, Hisoka.” Illumi turned to look at Hisoka.

“No matter what, Gon is my prey.” Hisoka walked out of the forest and threw the needle in his hand back to Illumi.

Just like a perfect bodyguard, Hisoka came to save Gon again.

Illumi took the round-headed needle and pierced the clothes on her chest: “What if I say no?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Illumi, who was still standing there just now, blurred like a phantom.

“Rhythm Echo.” Killua reacted and immediately turned around and rushed towards Gon, while Illumi had already appeared behind Gon.

“Claw.” Illumi slapped Gon’s back.

“Then fight with me first.” Hisoka, who was next to him, yanked his right hand fiercely. Hand claw that was supposed to hit Gon was forcibly changed, causing a deep hole in the floor next to Gon.

“You two better hide first.” Hisoka looked at Gon and Killua.

Before Gon could say anything more, Killua had already grabbed Gon and ran towards the dense forest.

Illumi stood up, his eyes narrowed, and he saw the threads of aura on her hands and chest, “Did you wrap up your aura when you returned the needle to me…”

“We haven’t fought for a long time.” Cutting off the thread of aura with the tip of a needle, Illumi’s whole body entered a state of physical transformation. Except for the face, the bulging veins could be seen, and then aura full of murderous intent came from Illumi.

“Ah, because you never want to be serious.” Hisoka licked his lips excitedly, and his eyes seemed to be shining when he looked at Illumi.

“It’s not too late to kill you first and then kill Gon.” Illumi walked towards Hisoka, more and more phantoms appeared, and finally formed nearly a hundred shadows of phantom and reality walking towards Hisoka.

Looking at the drowned Illumi, Hisoka relied on his Bungee Gum to stick his aura to the branches above his head, and then used his elasticity to jump up to the top of the tree, trying to find the true identity of Illumi from the phantom body.

While Hisoka was still looking for traces of Illumi, the Illumi had already stepped on the branches and jumped up in front of Hisoka.

“Fake, fake, fake, fake.” Hisoka kept crushing the phantoms that came up.

“Caught.” Among the crowd of shadows, Hisoka grabbed a heavy punch to his forehead, and Bungee Gum stuck to him at the moment of contact.

Just as Hisoka was about to counterattack, the Illumi in front of him also turned into a phantom and dispersed.

“Oops.” Hisoka looked at the thing in his hand, but it was a rabbit stuck with a round head needle. Behind Hisoka, the real Illumi pushed out with a palm: “Claw.”

The strong impact directly knocked Hisoka off the top of the tree, creating a hole in the ground and causing smoke and dust to billow.

“Awesome, Illumi, I’ve been waiting for the day when you want to kill me.” Hisoka showed a heartfelt smile in the pit.

Illumi stepped on the branch where Hisoka was standing just now, waiting from a high position for the smoke to dissipate.

The three pokers shot through the smoke towards Illumi on the tree. Illumi, who had been staring at the smoke, saw that the pokers only moved a few steps and easily dodged Hisoka’s attack.

In the smoke, the corner of Hisoka’s mouth curled up slightly: “Break.” The branch at Illumi’s feet suddenly broke, and Illumi subconsciously wanted to hold the nearest branch.

“Bungee Gum! Shrink.” The whole tree was pulled to bend over, and Illumi’s outstretched hand directly grabbed the air, and was in a state of being unable to use any strength for a moment.

Just when Hisoka climbed to the top of the tree, he had already broken the branches under his feet, and then used Bungee Gum to fit them together, and then used the illusion of thinness to restore them to no trace of breakage. In addition, the freely Bungee Gum is still attached to the tree trunk and some other locations. After being knocked down to the ground by Illumi, Hisoka connected the other end of the aura to the tree trunk to the ground.

This situation was created by forcing Illumi into the broken branch through the card, then removing Bungee Gum on the branch, and finally shrinking the Bungee Gum connecting the trunk and the ground.

Hisoka shot the thread of aura towards Illumi who was hanging in the air. Illumi took out a long-headed needle and cut it off. However, after all, the continuously shooting aura threads could not be accurately cut off in the suspended state. One aura thread found an opportunity to sticky to the feet.

“It’s my turn.” Hisoka pulled hard, and Illumi was pulled over uncontrollably. Then he punched Illumi hard on the right side of his face. Letting go of Nen, Illumi rolled and created a ravine on the ground, and stopped only after hitting a tree.

Hisoka walked towards Illumi unhurriedly, the aura in his body constantly condensing, preparing to give Illumi the final blow.

“Is there anything else you want to say?” Hisoka looked at Illumi condescendingly, as if he was mocking Illumi’s behavior just now.

“Hisoka, do you know… if I inject enough aura into the Nen needle… I can bestow one of my skills on him.” Illumi looked up with difficulty. A strong sense of dizziness allowed Illumi to see three Hisoka at the same time, which made him feel extremely weird.

“Then…” A hint of pain made Hisoka quickly lower his head to look at his right foot. A squirrel with a Nen needle inserted another Nen needle into Hisoka’s leg. “For example, let an animal that already has no energy use Dark Step.”

“Brush!” Hisoka made a prompt decision and cut off his right leg with the poker card in his hand just as the needle was inserted into his right foot. Use Bungee Gum love to distance yourself: “En!”

All the animals within ten meters around him were monitored by Hisoka, and he began to treat his right leg at the same time. He first sealed the wound with Bungee Gum, then extended it to shape the right leg, and finally replaced it with a thin fake skin Texture, and the right foot recovered.

After taking care of his right leg, Hisoka looked at the tree that Illumi had been leaning on and found that Illumi had indeed disappeared: “Ahhh… when will the next chance come to me?” Hisoka frowned and sighed sadly.

…

At night, in a relatively dense forest, Rocky had been lying in wait for nearly seven hours, and finally waited until Ponzu fell asleep completely.

Rocky tiptoed over, trying to avoid the leaves and branches and trying to minimize the noise.

Arriving next to Ponzu, Rocky gently put his hand into the backpack held by Ponzu: “I touched it.”

“Then just pull it out carefully.” Rocky stopped and adjusted his breathing.

Rocky pulled gently, “No, no, I’m full and I don’t want to eat anymore.” Ponzu’s sudden cry made Rocky feel tight, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was a dream.

However, “Buzz buzz…” Just because Ponzu screamed in her dream, dense bees swarmed out of the hat on her head.

The piercing wind and buzzing immediately woke Ponzu up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Rocky with his hand on her bag.

“Good evening, Ponzu.” Rocky retracted his right hand in embarrassment.

“My bees, attack him.” It only took a second for Ponzu to realize what Rocky wanted to do.
