From Hunter x Hunter to Supreme Will

Relationships are relationships, feelings are feelings. Yun Gu feels that some of Bisiji’s judgments about Long are...still very correct.

The person named Long...himself symbolizes danger and instability.

Chapter 171 Registered Disciple

"Do you know this person?"

In the heated atmosphere of the arena, Oboro and Hisoka sat side by side in the audience seats.

Hisoka looked at a Nen user fighting on the stage and chuckled.

This kind of fight between ordinary Nen users would not arouse Long's interest... He would occasionally come to take a look and pick some unripe fruits, and there must be a reason why Long came.

If it was a match between Gon and Killua, it would be understandable.

"I know him... I came to the Sky Arena thanks to him." Long nodded slightly.

He really didn't expect to see Charles again, Bald Charles.

Once upon a time, when he was making money at the Fields family's casino, the martial artist who ran errands for him... later went out to practice, but was caught by the Fields family and used to threaten him.

Finally, he was rescued by Long and placed in the hospital.

We never contacted each other again after that.

"He actually...became a Nen user." Long was a little surprised.

But it's also expected.

Back then, in the Sky Arena, although Charles was not accepted as a disciple, he was taught some body-building techniques. Charles had a very persistent pursuit of martial arts. In order to show his skills in the Sky Arena, he visited many martial arts schools. Moreover, after being kidnapped by the Firth family and experiencing dangers... It was normal for him to be exposed to Nen and become a Nen user.

After nearly eight years...

But it has been eight years, and he is still hanging around on the 200th floor of the Sky Arena, which means that his qualifications are indeed average.

His situation is the norm for most people.

"Oh!!! Char! Our Char player knocked down his opponent and got another point!!" As the host screamed, the shouts from the audience reached a peak. Char seemed to be very popular.

"Maybe many viewers don't know that Chaer has been in the Sky Arena for many years, but the floor he competed on was always relatively low... Every time he left and returned, there would be a gap of one to two years, and every time he returned to the Sky Arena, his strength would become stronger! Chaer started to climb the floors at an astonishing speed five years ago, and it took him half a year to reach the 200th floor. Although he was eliminated countless times due to the rules and had to go through a long waiting period before he could start over again and again... But our Chaer never gave up. His perseverance and persistence made him gain a lot of popularity!"

"He is a pure martial arts fighter and has become a role model for many younger generations."

In between the battles on the stage, the host added some information about the contestants.

Another referee also expressed his feelings, "The person who had a profound influence on player Chaer was a player many years ago, and also a building owner of our Sky Arena. His name was Long. The appearance of this man made our Sky Arena modify the rules of the ring ascending the building, which was a sensation in the early years. However, Long was later disqualified because he never returned to the Sky Arena and did not participate in the regular fighting competitions between building owners... However, player Chaer said in many interviews that he was Long's registered disciple and respected and admired Long very much. His biggest dream was to become the building owner of our Sky Arena like Long."

Hisoka propped his chin on his palm and glanced at Long.

It seems that no one expected that there was such a story between Long and Charles.

"I didn't accept him as my disciple..."

Long chuckled.

"After the competition with Xiaojie, you have enough points, right?" Long changed the subject.

He was referring to the qualification to challenge the OP.

"No, one point short..."

Hisoka responded.

Long was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

In the original work, the fight between Hisoka and Kashitoro took place two months ago, but at that time, Hisoka had survived the Kuroshio Incident and was seriously injured... He did not appear in the Sky Arena at the original time, and his contact with Gon and Killua was also delayed, which also triggered some chain reactions... In other words, Kashitoro is still alive.

"No wonder his promised battle with Xiaojie was also postponed."

Long thought in his heart.

"Don't you want to stay and take a look?"

Hisoka asked.

"Do you need to see it?"

Long asked back.

"Hehehe..."

Hisoka smiled.

The battle between Hisoka and Gon was nothing more than wanting to experience the deliciousness of the fruit... and feel Gon's outstanding potential and talent.

"Congratulations to contestant Char for winning!"

After a while, the host shouted excitedly, and the competition ended.

Charles pulled the defeated player up from the ground, showing the spirit of a fighter.

Compared to many years ago, Charles now seems much calmer and not as impetuous as he was when he was young... He has also experienced some ups and downs, so he has naturally grown inside.

Long slowly stood up and left with some audience members.

Hisoka followed suit.

After a moment, Long arrived at the passage where the players were leaving the venue one step ahead, and saw Charles, with a beard and a towel covering his head, walking into the corridor with his head lowered and walking slowly towards them.

"He's just one point short. Why not let him make up for it before he fights with Xiaojie... I'm quite interested in him." Hisoka leaned against the wall in the corridor, muttering softly.

He was referring to Charles.

Long glanced at him with cold eyes, "You can try."

"I'm just kidding."

Sensing Long's murderous intent, Xi Suo smiled.

After a while, Charles passed by the two of them. He sensed the presence of Oboro and Hisoka, but did not look at them closely.

He just wanted to go back to his room and rest.

"that…"

Suddenly, Long said, "Would you mind signing an autograph for me?"

As he spoke, he took out a small notebook and a pen.

Charles took it skillfully and wrote his name on the paper.

This scene was very familiar. Charles, who was sitting next to Long on the bus, took the initiative to give him an autograph... and then, fate began to work.

At that time, Charles wanted to become a big star in the Sky Arena, and now, he has done it.

But it seemed... as if he wasn't enjoying it and being as happy as he had expected.

"Thank you for supporting me... I will..."

Charles forced a smile and looked up at the fan.

When he saw Long, the bald man was stunned for a moment.

He rubbed his eyes, unable to believe it.

“Master…Father…?” Charles muttered, his mind going blank.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Long nodded and raised the corner of his mouth.

This was the first time he responded directly to Master Charles's title.

This also made Hisoka's eyes flash, and he looked at the plain-looking Charles a few more times.

This kind of person... would actually be accepted as a disciple by Long?

Although it is named...

Not someone like Gon or even Kurapika, but just an ordinary guy...

This meant that something must have happened between the two of them that he didn't know about.

Xi Suo was happy.

"Ahhhhh..."

Then, Charles came to his senses, rushed forward, hugged Long, and burst into tears.

She cried so hard that her lungs were torn apart... Even Long didn't expect it to turn out like this...

He came to watch Charles' game and to see him only because he was implicated when Charles was caught and beaten half to death by the Fields family. He didn't expect that Charles would be so excited when they met again.

Charles is now over 30 years old, with a sturdy body. He was hugged by a 200-pound strong man and couldn't help crying. This scene...

"Okay, don't get excited."

Long coughed, reached out and patted the bald man's back, comforting him.

After a few minutes, Charles finally calmed down.

Hisoka said hello to Oboro, then turned and left.

"He...is...Hissoka?"

Charles looked at Xi Suo's back and said in surprise.

"Ah."

"Master, do you know him? This man is very dangerous..."

Charles' expression was solemn.

"It's okay, he and I are just ordinary friends."

Long thought to himself that wherever Hisoka went, he had no good reputation and was not liked by anyone.

After a brief greeting, Charles invited Long to his room.

The bald man vividly described his experiences and growth over the past few years to Xiang Long. He was a strengthening type of Nen user, and his ability was called "the power of faith"... This ability was not practical, but through constantly tempering one's own will and state of mind, one had to move forward with "a clear goal" every day, give oneself tasks and complete them, so as to improve one's own state and accumulate little by little...

The development of Charles's Nen ability is quite consistent with his personality, but...it's rather average.

However, since it has already been developed, it is not appropriate for Long to interfere.
