Life in HxH - Chapter 20
Chapter 20 Game, Space Transfer
And now Biscuit takes Lucci to see Netero.
In the room, Netero was practicing calligraphy.
“Master, I brought Lucci here.” Biscuit was still very respectful to Netero at this time.
If Lucci wasn’t there, she would probably call Netero “Master Old Man”.
When Lucci entered the room, he first noticed Netero.
Netero is 81 years old at this time. Unlike the old look in the anime, Netero at this time actually has black hair.
His stature is not as short as in the anime.
Netero also stopped what he was doing and looked at Lucci.
This glance was like a sharp sword, giving Lucci a sense of extreme danger, and making Lucci unable to help but take two steps back.
I almost dodged this gaze.
But Lucci reacted quickly and looked directly at him.
“Haha.” Netero laughed, very satisfied with Lucci’s performance.
“Since you want to join the Heart Source School, then be my disciple.” Netero said directly.
Lucci was stunned, then asked: “Is it that simple?”
“It’s that simple!” It was a similar situation when Biscuit became Netero’s disciple.
“Since you are my disciple, come and play with me.”
The room on the top floor is much larger, and there is a small training ground inside.
“Do we want to play the ball grabbing game again?” Biscuit asked directly.
Directly told Netero what he was going to do.
“I just want to see the quality of my new disciple.” Netero smiled, stroking his beard.
Isn’t it his duty as a master to test Lucci’s level?
And Lucci thought of the fun that Netero, Gon and Killua had in the anime.
“I only use one hand and one foot. As long as you can grab the ball, I can teach you a boxing technique.” Although it is just for fun, there are rewards.
“Of course you can use your mind abilities as well.”
Biscuit has an unhappy expression.
All disciples of the Sengenryu School have played this game.
Netero’s Hundred Styles of Guanyin is also quite famous in the Shingenryu school, or in the martial arts world.
But so far, no one has been able to learn the Hundred Styles of Guanyin from President Netero. The most they have learned is the method of practicing punching.
Even though he only uses one hand and one foot, no one can snatch the ball from Netero if he doesn’t want to.
Of course, Biscuit has never succeeded.
She is also very curious about Hundred-style Guanyin. Even if it is not her own path, she can still get to know it and draw inferences from it.
“Is any method possible?” Lucci asked.
“Of course!” Netero nodded.
Could Netero’s boxing style be the Hundred Styles of Guanyin?
Even though it looks like fun, given Netero’s temperament, I’m afraid that what he gives will not be simple boxing.
And if I perform well enough, Netero will pay more attention to me, right?
If they want to control the Heavens Arena, then the Hunter Association may also be able to do so in the future.
“Oh, that’s a good expression.” Netero showed a happy expression. Although he didn’t know Lucci’s talent and strength yet, this ambitious expression made him quite satisfied.
“Then let’s start!” Netero tossed the ball back and forth in his hands.
Lucci did not rush to attack, but walked around Netero.
It is full of flaws, but these flaws give people the feeling that they have no idea where to start, which is quite contradictory.
Netero will be even stronger during this period. If he wants to snatch the ball from Netero, he will probably have to use his ability of space travel.
Lucci summoned Phoenix first.
“What’s the name of your beast?” Netero asked when he saw Phoenix.
“Its name is Phoenix, an immortal bird.”
As he said that, Lucci moved instantly, sprinted in front of Netero, and reached out to grab the ball.
But he missed because Netero had already left on one foot.
The speed was so fast that even afterimages appeared, and this was the speed using only one foot!
But Lucci did not stop, but continued to chase Netero.
“Phoenix? So your name is related to him?” Netero dodged while leisurely communicating with Lucci.
“Yes.”
The Phoenix in the air also began to move. In Lucci’s previous battles, it had never been allowed to intervene, but this time was different.
The flying speed is very fast, and the claws are directly attacking Netero just to create a chance for Lucci.
But Netero was faster and Phoenix’s attack completely missed.
So strong! This is Lucci’s intuitive feeling.
Not to mention grabbing the ball, I’m afraid it would be difficult to even touch the corner of the opponent’s clothes.
This speed is probably not the fastest speed. Lucci thought of Hundred Style Guanyin.
With that kind of attack, I’m afraid I wouldn’t even be able to see it before being knocked down.
Lucci is now using the Sharingan, and even with such a powerful dynamic force, he cannot easily capture Netero’s movements.
Maybe three magatama will be enough.
“The moves are pretty good, but the body needs more training. Being able to consciously control your breathing and integrate it into the battle is not bad, but it’s still a bit messy…”
Netero dodged while commenting on Lucci.
It’s not surprising that Lucci behaves like this since he doesn’t come from a regular martial arts school. In Netero’s eyes, his physical skills are not outstanding.
But his eyesight is very good, and he was able to capture his movements several times.
Listen to the reviews.
This is not an empty arena.
Lucci adjusted his breathing and sped up again. This time he stepped on the ground much harder. This was because the building materials of the Heavens Arena became more unusual as you went higher up.
If it were an ordinary building, the floor would shake when he stepped on it.
Lucci relies on the power of stepping on the ground to increase his speed and move quickly in a straight line.
Lucci just jumped up and down, and when he hit the ceiling, he turned around and stepped on the ceiling to gain leverage, moving back and forth continuously.
Just to grab the ball from Netero.
“Not bad, not bad!” Netero was very satisfied.
At the same time, Phoenix also began to move, and this time he would also show his ability.
In order to snatch the ball from Netero, Lucci doesn’t mind exposing some things.
Phoenix flew up with a roar.
Netero dodged the attack.
But at this time Phoenix suddenly disappeared, and then suddenly appeared on Netero’s right hand side.
Netero reacted instantly and realized that this was the ability of space transfer.
Biscuit also opened his pupils wide in shock.
Phoenix was about to touch the ball.
But a momentum emerged from Netero, and then the movements of his hands changed.
The ball was hit out instantly.
But Lucci Phoenix’s reaction was not slow either, and he used his ability of Apparition again.
“Bang” sound.
Phoenix fell short once again.
The fight for the ball continues.
The field completely turned into a competition between Phoenix and Netero.
Netero’s face was even more smiling.
