"Chidori: Sharp Spear" Sasuke drew his short sword, which formed a lightning blade that extended towards Uvogin.
"Kang—"
Nobunaga swung his sword to block the attack, but felt a numbing sensation in his hand. This was the power of lightning, which could slow down the enemy's movements.
"Nobunaga, take Uvogin and go first." Phinks also came up from behind, along with the injured Feitan.
Feitan spat out a mouthful of blood onto the ground, looking at Eligi with a displeased expression.
Feitan was closest to the vehicle at the moment of the explosion, so it was Feitan who pushed the vehicle at the instant of the explosion, making Feitan the most severely injured.
It was somewhat unexpected that Feitan could stand up after being hit by the explosion.
Feitan looked at Eligi and started muttering to himself, though it was unclear what he was saying, but his aura became more active.
It was as if a valve on Feitan's body had been opened, and his aura was manifesting uncontrollably.
Judging by his aura, it was no less than the aura that Eligi had just unleashed in his self-destruction.
"Is that the move they're going to use?" Nobunaga didn't hesitate and immediately picked up Uvogin and retreated.
Feitan's Nen attacks don't discriminate between friend and foe.
Feitan is a Transmutation-type Nen user. His Nen ability is called "Burning Sun," which allows him to create a small sun with Nen. Its power and range are not much less than that of Eligi's self-destruction.
The final power of the move depends on the extent of Feitan's injuries.
It's a move with masochistic tendencies.
Phinks and Nobunaga immediately turned tail and ran, moving away from Feitan.
Ailig took off running and covered a distance of over a hundred meters in no time.
"Huh?" This startled Feitan, who had been muttering to himself, for a moment. Then, as if realizing something, he let out a cold snort.
It's certain that Erigi and his group obtained information about his Nen ability from Pakunotan or the leader, which is why Erigi ran away when he saw the ability being activated.
Of course, Feitan probably didn't expect that Eligi had seen him use this move before, which had blown an entire castle into smoke.
A castle must cover an area of at least a hundred meters, which shows how wide the range of Feitan's move is.
Erigid's self-destructing clones seem insufficient against Feitan's attacks.
Therefore, Ailiji immediately ran more than 100 meters away to maintain a safe distance.
Feitan, seeing Eligi escape, naturally didn't want to let him go, so he gave chase.
Feitan was incredibly fast and quickly caught up with Eligi and his group. His powerful aura seemed to have significantly repaired Feitan's body.
Ki is inherently capable of strengthening and repairing the body, so it's not surprising that Feitan's body is being repaired given the astonishing amount of Ki he's unleashed.
"Kid, don't come any closer, we don't know each other." Eligi quickly started running again, while telling Hinata and the others to run separately and regroup after the explosion was over.
But Feitan was fixated on Eligi and chased him for several kilometers.
Ailiji was somewhat surprised that the opponent could still move quickly in this state, making him an unsolvable mobile bomb.
Finally, Eligi stopped and looked at Feitan, saying, "Use whatever moves you have. It's just a clone anyway. My real body is thirty meters away. If you can kill this one, I'll accept my fate."
Although Eligi's clones can explode, there is still a controllable range.
The control range is the sensing range of the Ailig itself, which is about two or three kilometers away.
That's right, the claim of being thirty meters away was just a lie to Feitan, that shorty.
But it's not exactly deception; it's more like the art of speaking. Even if it's two or three kilometers away, it's still thirty meters away.
When people say "thirty meters away," most only focus on the distance of thirty meters and few pay attention to the word "away."
Just like how stores often advertise promotions starting from one yuan, most people only focus on the one yuan figure, thinking it's a great deal, but once they enter the store, they realize they've been tricked.
Feitan was very unhappy after hearing this, but in the end he still activated his ability to kill Eriji in front of him.
Feitan first made himself a protective suit, then gathered all his Nen energy into one point and shouted.
"Transform into the scorching sun and burn!"
A ray of sun rose in the pitch-black night, illuminating the earth, and everything around it turned to charcoal.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two explosions rang out beside the road, and the ground shook slightly, as if a small earthquake had occurred.
Even two kilometers away, Ailiji could feel a wave of heat blowing over.
"Phew! It's just as powerful as the clone explosion." Eligi exclaimed, then hurried toward his destination.
Now, Eligi has used the clone technique three times in a row, losing 30,000, 20,000, and 14,000 units of energy respectively.
Ailiji also felt a sense of fatigue in his body, and it seemed that he needed to find a place to recover quickly.
Soon, Aliji returned to the site of the explosion, where he saw scorched earth and extremely high temperatures.
"Have you seen anyone?" Eligi asked.
Kakashi and his group had already returned by now, so they should have been able to see Feitan.
"That kid disappeared after the explosion," Sasuke replied.
Eligi looked at Hinata, who immediately understood what was going on and used her Byakugan to investigate.
"He's at a certain point, 1,500 meters away. He's already reunited with his companions. Should we go after them?" Hinata reported.
Ailiji picked up his phone and checked a message from someone from the Thousand Ears Society, saying that someone was willing to sell 26.6 billion to buy all of his collection.
Currently, Ailiji has 123 items in his collection, which means each item costs about 200 million Jenny, a very high acquisition price. Of course, if it were put up for auction, this collection could fetch at least 30 to 40 billion Jenny.
But that would take some time to sell, and Aliji preferred to sell all the goods at once.
"Forget it, we have more important things to do." In the end, Ailiji decided not to pursue the matter.
It seems the explosion just now killed Kuroro; without a mind of its own, the Spider is just a disorganized mess.
So the group packed up and prepared to go back, but then they discovered a fatal problem: there were no cars left, so they had to walk back.
Thus, by the time they returned to the gangster building, the auction was already halfway through.
Eliji pushed open the door and entered the auction hall, where he saw Kurapika at the entrance.
Kurapika knew what Erigi was going to do, and seeing that Erigi had returned so quickly, he knew something must have happened, so he asked, "Did something happen?"
"Yes! We encountered some trouble, but it's all resolved now, so don't worry," Eligi nodded in response.
"Three hundred million!" a little girl shouted excitedly, holding up a sign. Sitting next to her was Ryan; this girl must be Neon, the one with the amazing fortune-telling skills.
Many people on the field frequently turned to look at Neon, and Ryan's face was somewhat unpleasant, as there were quite a few of his enemies on the field.
