In terms of power, Zeno was stronger than Silva. Therefore, even if Silva and Zeno attacked together, they still couldn't kill Maha. Ron himself gathered his aura into his hands, readying his Nen bullets at any moment. Such an offensive, among C-level Nen users, was considered extremely fierce. The likes of the Seven Deadly Sins, the remnants of the Republic of Gorteau, and lower-tier Shadow Beasts couldn't withstand it. But Maha Zoldyck was different. In this courtyard, it was as if two worlds existed simultaneously. On one side was a raging storm. On the other, it remained calm and serene, unbelievably peaceful. From start to finish, Maha Zoldyck didn't even move his feet. He only used one hand to counter their attacks. He didn't employ any specific Nen abilities. He merely utilized basic Nen techniques. "This is the strength of one of the world's top five Nen users?" Ron shook his head. Outside, Ron felt that his strength had increased rapidly and that he was no longer a weakling. In the Sky Arena, becoming a Floor Master wouldn't be an issue. He had toyed with the Underworld Mafia in Aurean like they were in the palm of his hand. Several members of the elite direct force of the Ten Dons, the Shadow Beasts they relied upon, had died at Ron's hands. Their strength was just so-so. Ron hadn't fought any higher-ranking Shadow Beasts, but he imagined they wouldn't be much stronger. But now, facing Maha Zoldyck, Ron felt he had no chance of posing any threat. The gap between them was too vast. "Nen Bullet!" "Triceratops Attack!" "Jaw!" Ron, Hanma Baki, and Ryunosuke Akutagawa simultaneously launched their strongest attacks at Maha Zoldyck. "Boom!" A massive collision resounded. In the next moment, Hanma Baki vanished. Ryunosuke Akutagawa disappeared. Maha Zoldyck stood calmly before Ron. "Great-grandfather, I lost," Ron admitted. Maha Zoldyck suddenly leaned forward and patted Ron's shoulder. "Well done. You didn't disappoint me." "These two Nen beasts are impressive. However, even if you follow the path of Nen beasts, as a Nen user, you can't rely too heavily on them. Your own body also needs sufficient self-protection capabilities." Ron nodded. "I understand, great-grandfather." "I won't neglect my personal training, especially in combat techniques." Maha Zoldyck nodded slightly. "That's good." "You've mastered the basic Nen techniques quite well. Now that you're back, I'll teach you some advanced techniques derived from the basics." "They are: In, Shu, Ken, En, Ko, and Ryu." "First, In." "Involves maintaining part of your aura in a state similar to Zetsu but without completely closing all your pores. You still have aura outside that can be used for attacks." "It's suitable in two scenarios." "One, disguising your true strength—even pretending to be an ordinary person." "Two, hiding your attack intentions. When the enemy believes you have no intention to attack, you strike suddenly, catching them off guard." "Second is Shu." "Normally, a Nen user's aura envelops their own body." "With Shu, you extend your aura outward." "It's similar to using Nen tools but different." "For Nen tools, you simply channel your aura, and the tool absorbs it automatically. But with Shu, you need to consciously maintain the aura attached to other objects." "Third is En." "This is a high-level technique combining Ten and Ren, spreading your aura outward in a thin layer." "It enhances your perception." "You can detect distant targets in advance." "If an enemy sneaks in, you can sense it." "However, don't rely too heavily on En. While it can detect most entities, some Nen users can evade its detection." "Fourth is Ken." "In fact, you've already touched upon Ken earlier. You first use Ren to increase your aura and then engage in combat. This state is much stronger than simply having more aura than usual." "If you can maintain Ken for three hours, you can reduce the frequency of practising this technique." "Fifth is Ko." "Concentrate all your aura into one point, using it for attack or defence. It creates the strongest offence and defence." "But I recommend practising this technique without relying on it in actual combat." "Only use it as a last resort as it leaves the rest of your body defenceless" "And such situations are ones we, the Zoldyck family, aim to avoid." "As for Ryu, I won't teach you just yet. It's more complex than the techniques I've mentioned." "I'll teach you the previous ones first." "Train according to my methods." "Yes, great-grandfather." "That's all for today. You can return to your courtyard. Come back tomorrow morning." "Understood." Ron opened his bag and took out a few small handicrafts. "Great-grandfather, these are gifts I brought for you." After speaking, Ron slung his backpack over his shoulder and left the courtyard. Maha Zoldyck glanced at the small items on the table, a faint smile appearing on his lips. He chose to personally train Ron partly because Ron's parents had passed away early. Another reason was Ron's exceptional talent. However, after spending so much time together, the familial bond Maha felt toward Ron grew stronger than with other members of the Zoldyck family. --- "Master Ron." Two figures stood at the door. One was Shinji, the exclusive butler Zeno had brought back for Ron from Meteor City. The other was Sangitis, a challenger who had intruded upon the Zoldyck estate. Ron nodded. "Sangitis, please inform the kitchen that I'd like a larger dinner tonight." "Yes, Master Ron." "Shinji, come with me." Ron led Shinji into the lounge. As Ron sat down, Shinji stood opposite him. Ron scrutinized Shinji for a moment. In just one year, not only had Ron undergone significant changes, but Shinji had also transformed greatly. A year ago, Shinji had just learned Nen. Now, he appeared to be a mature Nen user. "Shinji, how is the development of your ability?" "I've completed it—it's a flame ability." "Show me." "Yes, Master Ron." Shinji raised his hand. "Boom!" A burst of flame ignited in his palm. Ron could clearly feel the intense heat; if it touched someone, it would be quite damaging. "Let me see your aura." "Understood." Shinji closed his eyes, adjusting his state. "Ren!" A surge of powerful aura emanated from Shinji. "Not bad." Shinji's aura had reached D-level. While it couldn't compare to Ron's, in the Sky Arena, rookie killers wouldn't stand a chance against him. "What about Sangitis?" "Sangitis is an Enhancer. His ability strengthens the power of his fists." Ron nodded. "That's somewhat similar to Uvogin from the Phantom Troupe." "Many Enhancers develop similar abilities because they prefer straightforward, direct combat." "Memorize this email address." Ron provided Shinji with an email commonly used by Chii. "If you encounter any issues and can't reach me, contact this email. Also, if this email asks for your assistance, do your best to help."
