Chapter 15 Let's Dance, Hisoka
Netero, who was also a man without any sense of boundaries, went straight into the room and said, "I mainly want to talk to you about resting in the next level."
"Also, if you pass the Hunter Exam, only one person can obtain the Hunter License," Netero said without warning.
"No, are Gaara and Hidan really that much like Nen beasts? Why do they feel almost indistinguishable from real people?" Eligi couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Could it be that I've already been chosen to become a hunter?" Eligi asked curiously.
Without even raising an eyebrow, Netero replied, "No!"
"That's it. Even if I pass the Hunter Exam, I'll naturally get my Hunter License on my own. Why would I bother to come all the way here to tell you?" Eligi still had a sliver of hope in his heart, since the other party hadn't explicitly said anything.
But Netero's next words shattered Eligi's hopes: "By the way, I heard someone picked up another person's number in the first round and took the exam. I don't know if it's true or not, we'll have to check that carefully."
"Fine, since you're the president of the Hunter Association, whatever you say goes." What objections could Eligi possibly have now? Even if he did object, what could he do? He was just playing volleyball with Netero for fun.
"Ugh, you're such a boring guy!" Netero muttered, then turned and left, heading towards Gon and the others.
Upon seeing this, Ailiji couldn't help but twitch his lips, then felt somewhat relieved that he hadn't meant any harm!
As night passed, the airship crashed into the trap tower.
The so-called Trap Tower is a place where ordinary people are imprisoned. This country does not seem to have the death penalty, so those imprisoned in the prison are criminals who have been sentenced to hundreds of years or more in prison.
This time, fifty candidates must navigate through this trap tower to reach the bottom and pass the test.
It should be said that they are 47th, or maybe 48th. Anyway, even if Gaara and Hidan pass the Hunter Exam, they will never get a Hunter License.
At this time, Eriji, Hidan, and Gaara went straight to the bottom of the tower, where Hidan sat idly to pass the time.
"Oh no, are we going to be locked up here for seven days? If we don't find offerings for the evil god in seven days, he'll be unhappy." Hidan, the chatterbox, kept mentioning his evil god.
Meanwhile, Eligi wasn't idle either, and he competed with Gaara in hand-to-hand combat.
Although Gaara's taijutsu is only so-so, considering he was beaten so badly by Rock Lee during the Chunin Exams that even his mother had to come out, he's definitely not just average.
Even so, it's still enough to spar with Eligi.
And so, after six or seven hours of sparring between Erigi and Gaara, the gate to the lower level of the Trap Tower was opened, and Hisoka, with pale lips, walked out from inside.
Judging from the shoulder injury, Hisoka must have encountered a skilled opponent inside the Trap Tower; otherwise, it would have been quite difficult for an ordinary person to injure Hisoka.
As for why Eligi was able to hurt his opponent, it was because Hisoka was completely unaware of the power of the curse.
"Hisoka, are you healed?" Unlike the others who hesitated when they saw Hisoka, Eligi asked about his injuries directly, just like a friend chatting casually.
"Hehehe, almost healed. What, are you going to make a move here?" Hisoka flipped the playing cards in his hand, intentionally or unintentionally concealing his wound.
It seems that Hisoka has a certain understanding of Hidan's curse. There are also cursed Nen abilities in the Hunter world, but they are relatively rare.
Therefore, if it is a long-established Zoldyck family, there should be records of what Illumi said when he rescued Hisoka last time.
"Hmm, this is a nice place, isn't it? And seeing your graceful dance makes my blood boil." Eligi slowly approached.
Hidan picked up his weapon and laughed excitedly, "Finally, some fun! Last time you ran away, Lord Jashin was very unhappy."
At this moment, Eriji and Gaara were standing in one direction, while Hidan was standing in another direction, slowly approaching Hisoka.
Hisoka's smile faded, and he held more playing cards in his hand. To be honest, he hadn't fully recovered from the bullet wound he suffered last time.
Hisoka simply used his ability "Bungee Gum" to fill and glue things together, just like Doflamingo in One Piece, who used his thread ability to mend his heart after it was shattered.
Although Hisoka's Nen ability doesn't have a mending function, it does have a stickiness that surpasses chewing gum, so it can achieve a similar effect.
However, the fact that the adhesive has come back on doesn't mean it's completely healed; it still takes time for the muscles and heart tissue to heal slowly.
Therefore, although Hisoka is very belligerent, he is not one who mindlessly charges in even when he knows he can't win.
But now that Eligi is pressing in, Hisoka will not be afraid in the slightest; that would only make his blood boil.
Seeing Hisoka's face suddenly flush, Eligi knew he was getting excited, so he said, "Excitement only makes blood flow faster, which isn't good for wound healing. You'd better fight calmly!"
"Oh! That's a good suggestion! I want to ask you a question. Do you know what my Nen ability is?" Hisoka unleashed a powerful burst of Nen energy, his eyes narrowing as he prepared for battle at any moment.
"Aren't you a magician? Shouldn't you already know the answer? Why are you asking me?" Eligi retorted, his hands already forming a gun shape.
Gaara's gourd sand also began to invade the ground, carrying up more sand and soil.
"Why waste so much breath on him? I'm going for it, Eligi." Hidan was now annoyed by Eligi's rambling and charged forward without waiting for orders.
Hisoka retreated while dodging, knowing that fighting this immortal spirit beast in front of him would only be a waste of energy.
The most efficient way to deal with it is to eliminate Eligi, the Nen beast host that Hisoka has identified.
Hisoka retreated while running towards Erigi.
But how could Eligi let the other get close? Hisoka was forced back by the "Rain of Sand" that he had prepared with both hands, which was like a machine gun.
Hisoka dodged sideways, but soon sensed something gathering in the sky—pieces of sand and gravel.
Although these falling stones won't actually harm Hisoka, they will still hinder and restrict his movements, allowing Hidan to stick to him.
If Hidan were to take even a tiny bit of his blood, Hisoka would face certain death.
So Hisoka didn't hesitate at all, shooting "Easy-Bend Love" upwards to quickly teleport to a wall four or five meters high, and also using "Easy-Bend Love" to stick his feet to the wall.
From a distance, it looks like he's standing on a wall using chakra.
