Chapter 62 Greed Island
"It's definitely more convenient to have your own game console," Bisky thought, completely different from Eligi.
"Alright, at most I'll ask for a game console and a little more money. We'll sign a contract with him that all the cards I take out will belong to him. I don't think Batra will have any objections." Eligi quickly made a decision.
Upon hearing this, Bisky couldn't help but retort, "Isn't that going a bit too far?"
"It's a matter of mutual benefit, anyway, I'm not really interested in the game cards inside." Eligi really didn't have any need for the cards in Greed Island.
Batra, on the other hand, needs two cards from Greed Island: one is the Breath of the Archangel, which he uses to heal his lover who is in a coma due to a car accident.
One of them was an antidote to aging, which made Batra younger so that he wouldn't feel guilty being with his much older lover.
"Alright then, so how do we contact Batra now?" Bisky had actually had her eye on Batra for a long time; her goal in this game was to hunt for a blue gem.
It's unclear whether Bisky's idea was impromptu or for some other reason.
For example, he might be tasked with teaching two kids. Otherwise, how come only Gon and Killua went in after the game has been released for over a decade, and only Bisky went in this time?
However, this has little to do with Ellige; I just want to get started with the rest of the lessons.
The ultimate advanced techniques of Nen are "Firmness," "Flow," "Hardness," and "Roundness."
Among them, "firmness" and "roundness" are the combination skills of the four basic "entanglement" and "training".
Simply put, "firmness" is the high-density compression of vital energy.
When air diffuses out to a certain radius, it forms a "circle".
If he can learn these two techniques, he can further improve Eligi's Dust Release, which is very important to him.
As for "hardness," it is a skill that combines the four basic elements of entanglement, absolute, practice, and release with "condensation." It is a rather advanced skill that most people may not be able to master in a short period of time.
As for "flow," it involves rapidly transforming between "firmness" and "condensation," which is a highly advanced skill that requires a great deal of expertise from the user.
In short, these four techniques are at most an introduction; to truly master them, one needs a long period of practice.
"How do I contact Batra? You're just a two-star hunter, why are you asking me? Shouldn't you have your own channels?" Eligi asked, somewhat puzzled.
Bisky shook her head immediately. As a two-star hunter, she naturally knew people within the hunter community. How could she possibly know people from the wealthy community?
Eligi was speechless about this. Half of the people on the rich list were hunters from the Hunter Association, who were all celebrities in society.
According to Ellige, Bisky just didn't want to use her connections, so she made up an excuse.
"Alright then, I guess I'll have to trouble Scorpion with this," Eligi said, then called Aina. Now that Scorpion was hiding himself, even he could only contact him through Aina.
According to Scorpion, everything was for safety. The Shadow Beasts under the Ten Elders' command were only for external use; they were still guarded by many Nen masters. If they weren't careful, someone might notice something.
Eligi naturally understood this; even the Nosra family could employ eight Nen users. How could the ten most powerful elders in the mafia only have a ten-person squad of Shadow Beasts?
There should be at least a hundred ability users guarding each of the ten elders; that would be a reasonable number.
Without the ability to control the area, how could one become the most powerful gang leader in each region?
Of course, these are all guesses from Eligi. Eligi doesn't know the exact number of Nen users around the Ten Elders, but it is precisely this unknown that makes outsiders feel fear.
After receiving Eligi's call and message, Aina replied shortly afterward, leaving Eligi and his group to wait for news.
While they were waiting, Bisky and Tsunade left again, saying they had received a message by phone and were being contacted to come back.
What else can Eligi say about this?
August arrived in the blink of an eye, and there was still a month until Youkexin's annual auction.
During this time, Eligi collected a lot of ninjutsu, but most of them were minor ninjutsu that were not very useful.
For example, this "Ninjutsu: Wind Release: Wind Cutting Technique"
Effect 1: Releases a psychic wind blade as thin as a knife, with a range of 5 meters. It can cut through objects such as paper, cloth, and ordinary wood, and will cause shallow scratches when it hits the human body.
Effect 2: The wind blade can be adjusted in trajectory by the "casting" technique to bypass small obstacles; when facing slow-moving psychic bullets from enemies that release energy, the wind blade can be used to shatter them; when used in a narrow space, the wind blade will bounce, allowing for multi-angle attacks.
Limitations: The wind blade is relatively weak and cannot cut hard objects such as rocks and metals; its power decreases sharply after the range exceeds 5 meters; after each use, the hand will experience a slight numbness, which will last for 5 minutes after 5 consecutive uses.
Most of the ninjutsu that Eligi has obtained so far are those with low power. Although their power will increase after development, development also requires effort.
Therefore, Eligi eventually gave up developing this kind of ninjutsu, which didn't have much power, and instead spent more energy researching Dust Release.
During this period, Eligi was able to combine Dust Release with four or five small fireballs to create explosions in a small area, with the power being comparable to small bombs, which was quite impressive.
What pleased Ailiji the most was that the explosion could produce a large amount of smoke.
While such power may not cause much damage to a skilled opponent, it can confuse the enemy, giving Eligi time to unleash a more powerful killing move and create an opportunity.
Eliji was very satisfied with this.
Having been in the Hunter world for almost a year now, Eligi estimates that his total energy level is between 40,000 and 50,000.
He knows the Substitution Technique, Shadow Clone Technique, Transformation Technique, Fire Release: Great Fireball, Dust Release: Particle Style, and seven or eight other minor ninjutsu.
He developed three skills: Dust Release: Great Fire Explosion, Dust Release: Armor, and Dust Release: Fire Explosion.
As for the Sand Clone Technique and the Sand Rain Technique, Eligi gave them back to Gaara and did not use them again.
As for Nen abilities, he has mastered the four basic techniques of "Entanglement," "Absolute," "Refinement," and "Send," and advanced to the techniques of "Circle," "Condensation," and "Concealment."
With the physical skills he'd honed over this period, Ailiji felt he was already quite an expert.
He just needs a worthy opponent to fight and prove how strong he is.
In the outskirts, Eligi skillfully spat out six fireballs from his mouth, then clasped his hands together in a diamond shape, silently chanting, "Dust Release: Six-Star Formation—"
The six fireballs in the distance were quickly compressed by the barrier, and then they flickered like stars in the sky.
After sliding for thirty or forty meters, a series of explosions were heard, making the scene look like fireworks.
