The car stopped, pulling up not far from the entrance of Heaven's Arena. Ron opened the car door and stepped out. "Big Brother!" Nina and the other two waved from a distance. Ron smiled. "Let's go up." "Mm-hmm." The group of four headed toward the elevator. Just at that moment, a young man and his friend walked out from inside. The young man saw Ron beside Nina, his eyes widened, and his face suddenly turned pale. His friend beside him also looked uncomfortable. Both of them became somewhat stiff. Ron glanced at the two of them, didn't notice anything amiss, and walked past them into the elevator. Then, he pressed the button for the 200th floor. The young man and his friend took a sharp breath. "Didn't expect they were together!" "Ron, a competitor on the 200th floor of Heaven's Arena." "He has already fought four matches." "He won the first three, but didn't show up for the fourth and forfeited." "But this guy definitely didn't forfeit because he wasn't confident in defeating his opponent; it was just that his timing coincided with something else." "He needed to give up that match to attend to other matters." "However, someone who can make such a decision proves that he has ample confidence in his own strength." "He doesn't care about forfeiting this match." "This guy is really strong." For the young man, competitors on the 200th floor of Heaven's Arena were already big shots. He vividly remembered how respectful his father was when meeting a competitor from the 200th floor. And Ron was even stronger than that person. "I almost offended him." "If we really offended him, not only would it affect me, but it might implicate my entire family." The tall figure patted the young man on the shoulder. "In the future, you'd better not do such things. You never know when you might provoke someone we absolutely can't afford to offend. Just because you decided to think with your lower region instead of using your brain" "Mm." The young man did not refute but lowered his head. Besides feeling lingering fear, there was also a hint of yearning in his eyes. "If only I could have such strength, that would be great!" --- Returning to the luxury suite. Ron immediately called Silva. The call connected. "Ron." "Uncle Silva, I've arrived at Heaven's Arena." "Good. When I send Killua over, I'll contact you again." "Okay." Ron hung up the phone and looked at the three girls. "How have things been for you during this time?" "I'm still the same as before, but Lisa still hasn't remembered her past memories," Nina said. Sally comforted her, "It's okay. If I can't remember, then I can't. Having friends like you is great. I'm already very satisfied. Starting anew is just fine." Ron nodded. "It's good that you think that way. By the way, have you figured out your own Nen abilities?" "Yes, I've completely understood them," Sally replied. Sally had lost her memories and had even forgotten part of her Nen abilities. "I have two abilities." Sally said, "One is 'Barrett,' an ability for long-range sniping. The maximum range is currently three thousand meters, but the most effective striking range is within two thousand meters." "The second is 'Storm Grenade.'" "It can cause massive destruction at close range." "It can also cause a certain blinding effect." Sally's two abilities are both of the Conjuration type. And they are modelled after existing firearm weapons. But that doesn't mean they are weak. As long as they are used in suitable scenarios, they can play a very powerful role. Ordinary sniper rifles definitely cannot reach the level of Sally's conjured abilities. "This time, I'm going to stay in Heaven's Arena for a relatively long period." "First, I need to settle down and practice quietly for a while." "The gains from my previous outings can keep me busy for a long time." "Second, it's about your paths." "A qualified team usually needs to have capabilities in several areas." Ron looked at Sally. "Sally, your abilities are already defined and mature, focusing on long-range attacks. There's not much possibility for change. Therefore, from now on, all long-range attacks in the team will be handled by you." (t/n it not me, the author keeps using Sally instead of her fake name Ron came up with) Sally nodded. "Okay, no problem." Ron's gaze turned to Nina. "Nina, you'll be responsible for intelligence gathering. Your abilities are very suitable." "Additionally, White Bear's abilities are also very fitting." Operators with Manipulation-type abilities are usually proficient in this area. Just like Shalnark in the Phantom Troupe. Illumi and Milluki are the same. Ron also remembered someone from the original storyline, a bodyguard hired by the Nostrade family, who could control someone's body through kissing; she was also a Manipulator. Another bodyguard had the ability to control dogs. Nina's abilities can be seen as a combination of these two abilities but upgraded. "Here's an email group address where you can get some online intelligence." The email group Ron provided currently had only two members. One is Chii. The other is Shinji. When Nina joins, it will become three. They are all people Ron trusts. "Okay." Ron continued, "For a competent team, our current members are definitely not enough. I will look for other candidates. If you have suitable ones, you can recommend them to me..." "Shizuku, starting today, I'll teach you Nen." Shizuku nodded. "Okay." Seeing Nina and Sally using Nen, Shizuku couldn't help feeling a bit envious. However, due to her memory issues, the envy came quickly and left just as fast; she'd forget about it overnight. (t/n at least she will always enjoy things constantly as if they were new to her) Nina had thought about teaching Shizuku Nen but decided against it after careful consideration. Nina felt she wasn't competent enough. "Come with me." Ron led Shizuku into his room. "Stand still." Shizuku nodded and stood in front of Ron. In terms of age, Shizuku was a bit older than Ron, similar to Sally. However, Ron had grown quite a bit over the past year, so he appeared about the same height as Shizuku, looking at each other at eye level. She had shoulder-length black hair. Wearing black-framed glasses, she looked a bit dazed and cute. She wore casual denim pants on the lower half. On top, she wore a slightly tight-fitting white short-sleeved shirt. At this time, Shizuku had developed quite well; her chest was slightly prominent. A faint feminine aura emanated from her. "I'll first tell you about the technique of 'Ten.' This is the first step before learning Nen..." Ron explained slowly. "Remember?" Shizuku thought for a moment, confirmed, and then nodded. "Good, now I'll open the aura nodes in your body. After opening them, first perceive your aura. Once you sense it, immediately use the 'Ten' technique I told you about." Shizuku nodded. Ron raised his hand. A large amount of aura surged into his hand. Then, it spread outward. Enveloping Shizuku's entire body. Shizuku felt the presence of this aura and subconsciously clenched her fists. "Open!" The next moment...
