What does this mean? This means that the Underworld Mafia never intended to take revenge on the Zoldyck family from the beginning. Instead, they wanted to take revenge on the Phantom Troupe. But because the Phantom Troupe members are from Meteor City, they gave up. For most people, they wouldn't harbour immense hatred toward assassins, but instead toward the person who hired them. However, there are a few exceptions. But considering the strength of the Zoldyck family, they didn't dare to seek revenge lightly. In the original storyline, Silva accepted an assassination contract and killed the Phantom Troupe's No. 8 member. Chrollo made a move against Silva but couldn't do anything to him. So he gave up. ----------------------------- The opponent on the first floor posed no difficulty for Killua. Killua won easily and obtained a ticket to the higher floors. At the same time, he also bought a can of cola as a prize. "Fizz!" Killua immediately returned to the vending machine. He bought another can of cola. "Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp!" Drinking it all in one go, Killua showed a satisfied expression. He casually tossed the cola can into the nearby trash can. As evening approached, Killua walked outside toward the hotel that Silva had booked in advance. He entered the elevator, swiped his card, arrived at the corresponding room, and swiped his card again to enter. After entering, Killua jumped directly onto the bed. His body bounced up and then fell back down. At this moment, Killua suddenly felt something called freedom. At the Zoldyck estate, Killua actually had a lot of freedom. Nothing really restricted his actions. However, it was completely different from the current situation. This was not the Zoldyck estate. There wasn't a single person from the Zoldyck estate around him. "So this is the outside world?" The surveillance video was still playing on Ron's laptop. But it had switched from the Sky Arena to the hotel. Before Killua returned to the hotel, Ron had already arranged for Hanma Baki to go there and install very discreet surveillance equipment in the hotel room. Under normal circumstances, members of the Zoldyck family are very sensitive to surveillance. Even the six-year-old Killua. However, Ron set it up based on the Zoldyck family's own experience. In terms of experience and technique in this area, Ron was above Killua. As for monitoring Killua, Ron left it entirely to Chii. Ron himself divided his time into three parts. One part was teaching Nen techniques to Shizuku, Nina, and Sally. Another part was for his own training. The last part was researching the situations of the Fiore royal family and the Taliesin Kingdom. After completing this stage of training, Ron's next step was to create his fifth Nen Beast. Both the Taliesin Kingdom and the Fiore Kingdom were among Ron's options. Neither was weak, and both had unique abilities. After absorbing their traits, the Nen Beasts created would certainly be exceptional. To be honest, although Ryunosuke Akutagawa wasn't bad, Ron was somewhat disappointed. The ability of this Nen Beast was more suited for cleaning up small fry. Among the current four Nen Beasts, Ron was most satisfied with Killer Queen and Chii. The abilities of these two were hard to find substitutes for in this world. As for Hanma Baki and Ryunosuke Akutagawa, to be honest, they could be replaced. Just like Chrollo said, the Phantom Troupe couldn't do without the abilities of Kortopi, Pakunoda, and Shalnark, but Uvogin, Nobunaga, and Phinks could be discarded. But compared to Ryunosuke Akutagawa, Hanma Baki had an advantage for Ron. Ron could acquire martial arts techniques from Hanma Baki. These techniques could be used by Ron himself. But with Ryunosuke Akutagawa, that wasn't possible. "The traits absorbed by the Nen Beasts and the crystal ball have a certain relationship." "The Underworld Mafia, after all, lacks distinctive traits." "But the Taliesin Kingdom has very distinctive features." Ron believed that if he absorbed the traits of the Taliesin Kingdom, the Nen Beast created would definitely not be easily replaced. Ron took out a box. He opened it. Inside were numerous needles. These needles emitted a faint Nen aura. "Tools imbued with Nen." Ron roughly understood Kikyo's idea. The Crystal Feather Bone contains deadly poison. By attaching the Crystal Feather Bone's poison to the Nen needles, the needles could become even more potent hidden weapons. Ron hesitated for a moment, then took out the Crystal Feather Bone and placed it into the box. One by one, the Nen needles pierced into the Crystal Feather Bone. In this way, they could absorb the deadly poison of the Crystal Feather Bone. "Counting it this way, I now have three Nen tools." "Nen Scissors." "Rotten Life Blade." "Poisonous Nen Needles." "That pair of scissors is no longer useful to me. Just in terms of toughness and sharpness, it can't compare to the Rotten Life Blade; I have no use for it." "I can give it to Nina for now." Ron walked out of the room and handed the Nen Scissors to Nina. "Nina, this is for you." "Big brother, what is this?" "A Nen tool; it's stronger than ordinary weapons." "Thank you, big brother, but..." Nina didn't take it immediately. "Don't worry, I have my own Nen tools; this one doesn't suit me very well." "Okay." Hearing this, Nina happily accepted it. At that moment, an email was sent to Ron's phone. Ron opened the email; there was a photo attached. A somewhat sleazy-looking young man was hiding in a corner, staring in a certain direction. And in that direction, Killua was standing. "Got targeted so quickly?" "But he doesn't seem very skilled." It's quite normal for participants of the Sky Arena to be targeted. Some with good intentions, some with malice. This city looks glamorous on the surface, but it actually hides a lot of darkness. "This person is related to several missing person cases?" "Because there's no evidence, so he's only suspected?" Ron's eyes narrowed slightly. "However, someone of this level—Killua should be able to handle him on his own." The next day. Killua left the hotel and headed to the Sky Arena. Several figures crouched in advance along Killua's path. As Killua passed by, a sound came from behind, attracting his attention. There, he saw a little girl crying. "Hey, what's up?" When Killua walked into the alley, people appeared and quickly blocked both ends. The little girl from before flashed a sly smile at Killua and quickly ran away. "Kid, hand over all your money!" A young man approached Killua, drawing a knife. "I have no money." Surrounded, Killua wasn't panicked; instead, he was somewhat excited. "No money? How could you afford such a nice hotel without money?" "That was booked by my father." "Then get your father to bring money." "My father is no longer in this city." "Call him!" "I don't know his number." The young man was speechless. He was furious. Killua's answers seemed extremely perfunctory, and more importantly, Killua's indifferent attitude completely disregarded him. "Kid, you're courting death!" "Looks like you won't listen unless I teach you a lesson!" Before the young man finished speaking, he lunged at Killua. ----------------------- You can read up to 120 Advanced chapters!
