Hunter x Hunter: My Nen Beast is Strong

Chapter 20

Gaara's attack caused the entire Trap Tower to shake violently, as if it had experienced a small earthquake.

It is evident that the attack was extremely powerful. If the trap tower had not been a place for imprisoning prisoners and had not been reinforced, it would probably have collapsed in a small area.

The proctor, Libert, dropped the potato chips from his hand and muttered to himself, "Looks like we've gone a bit too far. What kind of monster is this?"

Even through the screen, Riber could feel Gaara's immense power; he was completely unable to stop this monster.

Thinking of this, Li Bo hurriedly took out his phone and dialed a number: "Hello, is this the president? There's a candidate here who's gone berserk and turned into a monster. I might not be able to stop him. Do you have time to come to the scene now?"

"Okay, okay, okay, I hope you get here soon. I'm a little scared that this berserk examinee will destroy the trap tower!"

On an airship, Netero scratched his head, surprised by the unexpected events that had occurred this year, requiring him, an old man, to step in for two or three matches.

"Sigh! Looks like I'll have to make another trip," Netero said reluctantly, scratching his ear.

The secretary, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but think to herself, "He looks really excited."

A moment later, Netero returned to the Trap Tower, where he could sense a powerful aura emanating from within the airship.

"Hehehehe, no wonder that guy Liber was so scared, what an amazing magnanimity!" With that, Netero once again demonstrated his aerial acrobatics, jumping from a height of over a hundred meters.

Just as Netero landed, the prison gates opened.

The moment the gate opened, a large amount of sand rushed out, obscuring all visibility inside.

The next moment, Netero lightly stepped down, leaving a deep pit in the ground, and disappeared. Not long after, a violent roar came from the first level of the trap tower again.

Then a gust of wind blew out from inside the trap tower, and a large amount of sand and dust was blown out, allowing people to see the scene inside the trap tower.

Gaara, in his half-tailed beast form, was mostly shattered by Netero's palm strike, and he was embedded in the wall of the Trap Tower.

In contrast, Illumi was also slapped away and crashed hard into the wall of the trap tower. The sound of the impact could be heard even from a distance.

At this moment, Illumi's clothes were tattered, and one of his arms was hanging down, indicating that he had been seriously injured in the battle just now.

"Alright, no fighting is allowed on the first floor now, or you'll be disqualified from the exam." Netero said directly after surveying the situation on the field.

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat—" Several sand bullets swept past Netero and flew directly toward Illumi.

After Illumi dodged, he also fired back a Nen needle, which was knocked away by his palm strike.

Netero's words seemed to have no effect; the two sides continued fighting, clearly getting carried away.

The main issue is that Niterói's words weren't threatening enough; should he be disqualified?

Eligi came here to rest, not for the hunter's license, so it doesn't matter whether he gets it or not.

However, it seems he didn't get much rest on this trip. Hisoka and Illumi made him even more exhausted. How could he possibly swallow this insult?

Therefore, the most urgent task is to take care of Hisoka and Illumi!

"Hehehe! You're certainly full of energy!" Netero didn't seem offended at all; instead, he chuckled.

Then Niterlo took the shot immediately, and in less than a second, no one on the field could stand up.

Powerful! Absolutely too powerful. Eligi didn't even have time to react to how the opponent attacked before he felt a palm strike. Fortunately, the palm strike felt very gentle and didn't seem to carry much malice.

When Hisoka moved quickly, Eligi could at least sense a shadowy figure, but when Netero attacked, Eligi felt absolutely nothing.

It's clear that the title of the world's number one Nen master in the Hunter x Hunter world is well-deserved!

This finally calmed everyone down, and Ailiji also calmed down and stopped making a move.

Even Hidan, that troublemaker, became obedient, realizing how formidable Netero was.

Soon, a group of people were brought aboard an airship. Just moments ago they were fighting fiercely, but now they were sitting together peacefully drinking tea.

Netero then read out the Hunter Association's decision regarding the group's fighting despite warnings.

"Given your refusal to heed warnings, your qualification for the third exam has been revoked," Netero said, holding up a piece of paper.

"So we need to retake the exam?" Illumi asked.

Netero nodded and said, "Yes, you are welcome to come back next year to take the Hunter Exam anytime."

"Ah! Does that mean we're eliminated?" Eligi was also a little surprised, not expecting to be eliminated.

"That's right, this is the decision made by the Hunter Association. If you have any objections, you can submit a petition." Netero said seriously.

Seeing this, Eligi's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Guild Master, could you tell me how much a two-star hunter from the Employment Association charges for teaching Nen abilities?"

Netero paused for a moment upon hearing this, but quickly replied, "The price varies from person to person, so I can't give you a precise answer here."

"Could you recommend someone more capable? I'll try to contact them. Whether I succeed depends on my own abilities," Eligi said shamelessly.

Although he has awakened his Nen ability, and has even developed it to the point of being able to "cast" it repeatedly, he still has some understanding of Nen.

But actually, it's not surprising that he knows nothing about the concept of "one plus one" (念). It's like knowing that one plus one equals two, but not necessarily knowing why one plus one equals two.

"Okay! I'll give you a few contact numbers later, and you can try your best!" Netero finally agreed.

Seeing that Netero had agreed, Eligi felt that this hunter exam had been worthwhile.

And so, Eligi was eliminated in the third round of the Hunter Exam.

It didn't matter, though. When he summoned Hinata and the other two, Eligi didn't know how to participate in the upcoming Hunter Exam.

Soon, Eligi and Hisoka were dropped off by airships in two different cities.

Eligi originally planned to hunt down Hisoka and Illumi, but an unexpected situation made him abandon the idea.

"So, after entering Tailed Beast Transformation, you'll be forced into a 'Zetsu' state for a month, during which time you won't be able to use ninjutsu, right?"

Eligi stroked his chin, originally thinking that Gaara's use of the Tailed Beast Transformation would not have any side effects, but he did not expect that he would be forced to enter "Zetsu" for a month.

This time period is neither short nor long!

Eligi tried to summon Gaara again, but the result remained the same. It seems that the tailed beast form can only be used as a last resort.

"Then let's hurry to the next safe place and contact these phone numbers while we're at it." Eligi looked at one of the three phone numbers, which had the name Bisky.

This is the most professional mentor in the Hunter world, and his theoretical knowledge is probably the most solid.
