Becoming the Supreme Will starting from Hunter x Hunter

"Don't you ever want to chat with the old man about everyday things?"

"……"hazy.

"How do you feel since joining the association?"

Nitro took another sip of tea.

Seeing this, Bisky smiled and looked sly.

Yes, that's the feeling... She was often 'teasing' the president as well.

"generally…"

Upon hearing this, Long sat down abruptly and replied.

"Did it not meet your expectations?" Netero asked with a smile.

"Can't

"It's exactly as I imagined, so... there's no surprise," Oboro said calmly.

"Oh?"

His question surprised the old man somewhat. "Is there anyone you're particularly interested in?"

"There are a few, but not many..."

“Then I guess… what you care about most is me and Linneaudpur, after all, only the two of us have been to that place…” Looking at Oboro’s expression, the old man’s next sentence instantly made Oboro and Bisky’s expressions change.

Gourmet Hunter Linne Odpur, the oldest hunter in the association.

"Ugh."

Seeing Oboro's reaction, Netero sighed and put down his teacup. "As expected... you know her."

Ever since Bisky made a special phone call to mention Oboro, the old man had been secretly keeping an eye on Oboro... not as indifferent as he appeared on the surface.

It's normal that Oboro wants to use the association and him, as the president, as a stepping stone to achieve his goal and ambition of becoming stronger.

The problem is... becoming stronger is a very common goal... everyone is on this path.

But this goal needs an incentive to drive it.

Why do we need to become stronger, and what should we do after becoming stronger?

Power?

Judging from his hands-off approach to managing the Phils family, he has no interest in power whatsoever... The position of the Ten Elders is also dispensable to him.

A conversation at the amusement park in Bangji City confirmed the old man's suspicions... that he wanted to stand on the mountaintop!

And this mountaintop is not just about becoming the most powerful Nen user... but also about surpassing everyone else, including him.

An unprecedented achievement.

Only in this way can Oboro's value be demonstrated; the 'view' he sought to see on the mountaintop belonged to his will!

So... looking at the entire human world... to accomplish this, there is only one place to avoid: the Dark Continent.

The association can accelerate Oboro's growth... These are all superficial reasons.

The most likely reason that this little guy, Oboro, joined the association is because of me.

Netero understood.

He could even deduce that the main reason Oboro wanted to become one of the Ten Elders was... to get in touch with V5.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to attract this person to spare no effort in planning...

It can be argued that all of Oboro's actions were purposeful!

On the one hand, I joined the association for my own benefit... On the other hand, I started working with official institutions, and the direction is already obvious.

This...is terrifying!

The little guy in front of me... is only 20 years old, yet he has already begun to plan his path forward, and he did it all by himself! Not everyone has this ability... Most importantly, Oboro's strength and talent are also outstanding.

The goal was extremely ambitious... and the strategy was meticulous and deliberate. Even Bisky didn't realize the foresight behind it.

Even if the mafia gathered information in advance, they might not know who Linneaudpur was...

Oboro's reaction at this moment made Netero feel that... he had learned something from V5, indicating that... the Fels family had already infiltrated some organizations. This was beyond his expectations; the Fels family's speed and efficiency were too fast... Oboro and his family were quite capable.

Of course, Netero was unaware that the Fels family had not infiltrated V5's organization at all, or at least, it would be difficult for them to do so in the short term.

It all stems from the 'memory bank' that this young man in front of him possesses.

"Don't go!"

Slap it.

The teacup in Netero's hand had developed a crack.

The usually kind and gentle old man suddenly became serious, even somewhat cold, staring straight at Long.

That look in his eyes... that invisible pressure.

In an instant... Oboro stopped breathing.

My hair stands on end!

He wanted to resist instinctively... but found that even moving a finger was not easy.

The Bean Man and Bisky on the other side were also dumbfounded... equally speechless and unable to act.

The old man... was unusually serious!

72. A task

Throughout their entire conversation, the two never mentioned the words "Dark Continent".

But both sides understood what the other was saying.

Have you figured yourself out?

"As expected of you."

Long, impressed by the old man's imposing aura, inwardly praised him.

Meanwhile, Bisky was shaken... She also understood what the chairman meant and knew that he was referring to the Dark Continent.

But... why this attitude towards Oboro?!

She had never seen the old man so stern and cautious with anyone.

You know, it's perfectly normal for hunters in the guild to often talk about the Dark Continent... Some even joke about exploring the Dark Continent in front of Netero, and the old man just laughs and warns that someone might die if he says that, and then moves on.

why?

Why is it like this with Oboro?

Is it because he looks like Yang De?

The fact that the chairman has another son is known to very few people within the association, and Bisky happens to be one of them. It's a secret… absolutely not to be told. However, knowing the chairman as she does, even someone like BYD wouldn't go to such lengths…

Are there any other reasons?

Or perhaps… the hidden danger posed by Oboro is even greater than that person…

“If I become stronger than you one day, you won’t be able to stop me…” Oboro suddenly spoke, looking directly at Netero.

"You need to be able to do it first."

Netero said in a deep voice, "From the day you joined the association, as long as your strength is inferior to mine, or as long as I am still alive... you are not allowed to set foot there!"

"It's best not to even have the idea..."

"Is this... a constraint you imposed on me?"

Long smiled slightly, "You really did set a trap for me, but... it was with good intentions. Don't worry, I'm not that stupid."

From Netero's perspective, if he hadn't become a member of the association, in the near future, perhaps a few years or ten years from now, given his personality, he could have easily used the power of the underworld and the pawns of the government to smuggle himself to the Dark Continent.

Even obtaining a permit is not impossible...

But now that it has the association's status... things are a little different.

Of course, Oboro could also sense that Netero was acting out of a protective instinct.

Protect him?

No…it’s more about protecting humanity.

Going to the Dark Continent to die... I don't care.

What's frightening is that the person didn't die, but came back...

Suddenly, the old man withdrew his aura, and the three people in the room immediately felt the pressure disappear.

Hot water spilled from the broken teacup, and the bean-faced man hurriedly picked up a handkerchief and began to kneel down to wipe it clean.

"We know you're very smart... but you're too audacious. No one can be sure what choices you might make at any moment." The old man smiled warmly.

It was as if what had just happened was an illusion.

"So, that's why you've kept me tied to your side and watching me?" Oboro whispered.

“Tie him up? Who can tie up a guy like you?! At most, I’ll take care of you as an elder before you’re 'underage'…” Netero laughed.

"Oh... then thank you so much."

The tone was sarcastic.

"You're welcome…"

"After going around in circles and giving us all the feedback, are you satisfied? Can we get down to business now...? Let's hurry up," Oboro urged.

The way to become stronger!

Bisky, standing to the side, squinted... Luckily it was her; if it were anyone else, this big and small...

The conversation between the two foxes is likely to be completely incomprehensible and quite frustrating.

Sometimes you can understand them, sometimes it's like they're exchanging secret codes.

But both of them understood each other's meaning...
