Chapter 226 - Chapter 226: Gon's Enlightenment

"Teach me one last lesson"

He thought about what Netero had said to him before he died and sighed softly.

What class.

There is no attitude, no pressure from the Hunters Association or the V5 parties, just a human fighting as a human against the Chimera Ants to prove the strength and will of humanity.

The old man hopes that he can remember that no matter how powerful Oboro becomes in the future, he is still human.

When a race is in trouble, it is natural to protect them.

Or even if there is a world war in the future, we must make sure that the race is not wiped out.

He died, and perhaps it would be Oboro's turn next, to stand at the forefront without hesitation.

No selfish motives.

Of course, it also indirectly reminded him of the subsequent handling of the Association, I hope Oboro can "digest" it in a gentle way.

Netero did not lose, after all, he dragged the Ant King to Hell.

Judging by the human side's operations, the plan was successful, at the cost of only one expendable human life.

After flying a distance and confirming that the infectious virus would not spread here or be blown here by the wind in a short time, Oboro controlled his Nen and allowed Menthuthuyoupi and Shaiapouf's consciousness to take control of their bodies again.

Then, wisps of black "flowing light" erupted from the two ants' bodies and merged with the black mist swirling on the ants' surface.

Their eyes immediately regained clarity.

"Let's go and have a look."

Oboro stood on the ground and said quietly.

No order or command, just a reminder.

Menthuthuyoupi and Shaiapouf could feel everything that had just happened.

"King!"

Shaiapouf was the most excited, tears welled up in his eyes, and he flew into the sky without saying a word, heading for the battlefield. At that moment, he didn't care if the human in front of him was his enemy or wanted revenge, and Menthuthuyoupi followed close behind.

Compared to the safety of the Ant King, Oboro's life or death is not important at all.

Whoosh! The two ants ran away at full speed.

Oboro put his hands in his pockets and watched them go.

"Although you are absolutely confident in yourself, you expected this outcome. Otherwise, you wouldn't have agreed to have a bomb implanted in your body. From what you told me, it seems that you had already made arrangements with the Association before you came to the NGL."

Oboro looked at the sky and murmured, "Is it Ging?"

Oboro had a premonition.

It might not be easy for him to take over the presidency.

The old man's last words revealed a feeling of trust, but also of doubt.

I believe in him because Oboro is a hunter and a human, and he has unquestionable strength.

The questioning is to 'awaken' Oboro's conscience as a human being. Going to the Dark Continent is not a wise move and will bring unimaginable disaster to the world.

From this point of view, the old man was unprepared, and Oboro didn't believe him.

Oboro remembered the contest between him and Gingfulis, in which the latter said that he was absolutely sure that he would not allow Oboro to be elected chairman.

If you look at it this way

On the other side, Youpi and Shaiapouf quickly arrived at the battlefield, which was destroyed by the explosion and covered in lava and fire.

The whole place was filled with billowing smoke and the pungent smell of fireworks, and the temperature was incredibly high.

However, they still found the Ant King's body, which had been burned into charcoal according to their wishes.

Just like in the original story, he feeds the 'essence of life' he condensed himself in the form of 'nectar' into Meruem's mouth.

By this time, Oboro had already left his position and disappeared.

After a while, the ant king resurrected.

With Youpi and Shaiapouf transformed into mini forms, they appeared in the sky where Oboro had just stopped.

"That human ran away!"

Shaiapouf said hatefully.

The Ant King is in contact with Youpi and Shaiapouf now, so they don't have to say anything, the Ant King can know what is happening in the palace.

Judging by the way Shaiapouf and Youpi treated this human, the forces in the palace wouldn't have suffered such a heavy blow if it weren't for him.

Meruem's power after rebirth is even greater. With a single thought, his En and perception sweep like a tide to the end of the horizon.

She seeks the human named Oboro.

Kill Neferpitou's murderer.

At his current speed, it was impossible for any human to escape from under his nose.

As the Nen erupted and covered an extremely large area, Meruem's eyelids twitched, and many dense waves like torches appeared around his brain. Some of them were thousands of meters away from each other, and some of them were further away, several thousand meters away, and the number exceeded a thousand.

"His pupils contracted and he looked at a certain place. The image in his field of vision was suddenly magnified and clearly visible.

I saw a ball of dark nen floating in the air, motionless.

It was a soul.

Moreover, these souls are very cleverly distributed, with a certain distance between them, and because of their uneven positions, they cannot be destroyed all at once.

It was obvious that the human named Oboro was suspicious of him.

I have already made preparations.

Meruem was sure that Oboro was hiding nearby.

He used some special means to disguise his own existence or breath, so that even he couldn't detect the target's position.

"Hazy"

Because he was reborn, his original body was severely damaged, causing him to forget some memories.

However, he remembered what Netero said to him before he died.

"There is only one person in this world who might know your name. It's a pity you won't be able to meet him."

Somehow, the Ant King had a premonition.

The human the old man was referring to was this human named Oboro.

"Three minutes."

Meruem looked around at the vast land. Oboro's methods were very interesting, but in his opinion they were a complete joke. If he wanted, he could destroy all the soul points in a short time! That way, Oboro would definitely be exposed. But compared to dealing with this human, he felt more urgent.

I must hurry back to the palace, as if there is something more important than killing this human.

There was a knot deep inside him.

It was as if something in the palace was calling him.

Tell him to go back quickly.

Besides, this matter is of vital importance to him.

Finally, under Shaiapouf's stunned and shocked eyes, the Ant King flapped his newly born wings and flew towards the royal city with his two subordinates, ignoring Oboro.

"King?"

Shaiapouf was stunned as he realized that something was wrong with the Ant King.

Oboro is the greatest enemy among the humans who poses a threat to them. If it were the personality of the former Ant King, he would never let it go.

What happened?

"Why would he let us go and save the king? With his strength, it would be easy for him to kill you and me." The shrunken Youpi pondered a question and looked at Shaiapouf.

This is indeed contrary to Oboro's position as a human.

But Shaiapouf no longer had the heart to communicate with him.

Shaiapouf focused his attention on the Ant King and had a premonition.

After making sure that the Ant King had completely turned into a black dot and disappeared, and after no longer being able to sense the other party's breath, Oboro stepped out of the shadow of a huge stone.

The wandering souls are brought back one by one.

And release the spirit, just like the one that spied on the battle between Netero and the Ant King, flew to the fireworks and threw them onto the battlefield.

But there is no way to take out the old man's dropped soul at once, because the burning and high temperature of the flames make the spirit unstable, and it is easily destroyed in it. Thus, after Oboro senses that the spirit he sent out has disappeared, he has to repeat the process, separating the soul from the spirit mist over and over again.

After a long period of transportation, the hard work finally paid off and his soul was brought to a safe place.

Next, Absorb!

It's still the familiar armor and magic power, adding 2 points each.

Not reflected in the numerical value.

But Oboro's Nen ability and Thresh's passive - for the first time, they couldn't control it.

His Nen turned into a giant ghostly mist that instantly exploded with him as its center and swept around.

At the same time, a huge figure condensed by Nen stood tall under the night sky, emitting an enchanting and evil laugh that echoed in the sky.

It is Thresh!

The palace on the other side.

All the Chimera Ants had been dealt with by Oboro. They had no souls and were all dead, which relieved the members of the expedition team, who had originally been preparing for a big fight.

They began to take notes and report back to the Association.

As for Killua and Gon, they also found the girl Oboro mentioned, Komugi.

Komugi was not injured by Zeno's dragon star group.

Originally, there were several ants in the room to protect her, but they were all devoured by the spirit.

However, no matter how they explained it, Komugi didn't seem to believe that they were on the "righteous side".

Instead, she insisted on waiting for the Ant King to return.

This left Gon and Killua somewhat helpless. It was still unknown whether the President could defeat the Ant King. If he failed, the Ant King would definitely return, and this place would become a new round of battlefield. The danger they would face might be tens or even hundreds of times greater than before!

Therefore, they had to take Komugi to a safe place.

Finally, seeing Gon in a panic, Killua knocked Komugi unconscious and forcibly "kidnapped" the girl.

""

Gon was speechless at Killua's rude behavior.

Killua didn't care and wanted to take Komugi away first. So far, only the ants in the palace have been eliminated, but there are still some "strays" in East Gorteau.

In other words, humans alone will not be able to quell the Chimera Ant disaster in a short period of time, because even if the Ant King is killed, the ants scattered to other lands will still exist, and their numbers are not small.

The effect is extremely great.

"Killua, do you think the President and Mr. Oboro will be okay?"

Seeing Killua carrying the girl on his back, Gon couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay. Let's not talk about the old president for now. This guy Oboro is very strong and may not be weaker than the president. He should have gone to help the president. As for why he took those two ants, it might be for some reason." Killua turned and gave Gon a reassuring smile.

"Um."

Gon nodded.

Although some of the seniors in the association, including Biscuit, were skeptical about Oboro's purpose.

But Gon believed in Oboro without a doubt.

In his opinion, Oboro must have gone to help the president.

Killua looked at Gon's expression and seemed hesitant to speak.

Gon had been depressed since Kite's death. Later, he realized the concerns of others and pretended to be open-minded. Although this may fool others, it does not fool Killua. Gon asked this question, obviously worried about the president and Oboro, especially Oboro.

After the shock of Kite's death, if something happens to Oboro again, including the president, I'm afraid.

Killua calmed down, said hello, and then a flash of lightning appeared on his body. He used his Nen ability to quickly escape through the door.

But it was sudden, without warning.

His and Gon's faces were tense and their hair stood on end.

An indescribable pressure enveloped the entire palace.

Lost!

Almost at the same time, the two teenagers had the same thought.

It's the Ant King!

The return of this ant means that the president is dead?

The two couldn't believe it, and their brains went blank for a moment.

Before they could react, a group of flies suddenly flew in through the door. Upon closer inspection, they found that it was Shaiapouf, one of the members of the king's personal guard that the expedition had been sent to deal with.

When Shaiapouf saw the Komugi on Killua's back, his eyes immediately turned red and his murderous intentions were revealed.

He realized that the reason the king let Oboro go and rushed back was because he missed that girl!

However, he has not yet remembered

The latest novel will be released first on Liu9shuba!

On the way, the Ant King asked Shaiapouf some questions.

So he deliberately delayed and maneuvered, and rushed over to kill the Komugi first!

"Gon!"

Killua shouted, "I leave it to you!"

With that, he turned into a bolt of lightning and passed through the gap in the room.

There was no way for the Shaiapouf to see them escape, so they swarmed over.

As Killua was about to collide with a large group of "Little Shaiapoufs," he suddenly changed his stride and moved sideways, making room for Gon to sprint toward him with clenched fists.

Gon's Nen-wrapped fist exploded among the 'flies', and Killua took the opportunity to make a quick getaway.

Some of Shaiapouf's clones were destroyed, but there was still a group that avoided Gon's attack and circled in the air. As they were about to go after Killua, they raised their heads and saw the boy who had just attacked him, Gon, blocking the door with an indescribable will in his eyes.

His expression was somber, even dark.

Gon, who had always been gentle and outgoing, showed this expression for the first time.

Shaiapouf's expression changed slightly, as if he sensed something from the boy.

"You?"

"Mr. Oboro, we have you under control, how is it possible that you are still alive?" Gon stared at Shaiapouf.

"Is he dead?"

"Hahahahahahahaha"

Shaiapouf's clones laughed sarcastically one after the other.

"What do you expect? You are just a bunch of low-level life forms, you are just humans, and yet you want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Supreme King? That's ridiculous!"

"I see these two humans are your support, right?"

"They are dead, all dead, all fallen under my king! As an inferior race, they are proud enough. Not every human can enjoy the opportunity to be executed by my king. For them, it is also a kind of honor!"

Shaiapouf lied.

Since they are enemies, isn't this an opportunity to inflict psychological trauma on the human expedition team?

Maybe the boy in front of him would have a breakdown due to this pressure!

"You mean the President and Mr. Oboro were killed by it?" Gon's eyes narrowed and his tone emphasized the word "it.

Meaning the Ant King.

"What else?"

Although Shaiapouf seems to be dealing with Gon, his body has actually split again and is going after Killua.

"Not just the two of you, all of you will die. You will pay the price for your disrespect to our king!"

Shaiapouf shouted.

Gon bowed his head and remained silent.

After a few seconds, Shaiapouf was startled.

For the little boy in front of him emitted an aura that made him feel uncomfortable, even threatening.

"I'll go find him."

Gon said only one sentence, then turned abruptly and walked towards the terrace in front of the palace.

And Shaiapouf swallowed unnaturally.

I was terrified.

What kind of energy is that?

The Ant King did not rush to the palace right away.

But before he arrived, the energy he had released had already spread.

At that moment, all the members of the expedition team felt tense and uncomfortable.

All of them are like Gon and Killua, not daring and not willing to believe.

When they saw a full moon hanging high in the night sky with scattered dark clouds, and the ants with human-like bodies hovering high in the air above the entire palace, everyone felt as if they were falling into an ice cellar.

"Disperse!"

With a single cry, Morel and the others fled.

Their idea is simple.

Give your partner a chance to escape.

In this way, he sacrificed himself in exchange for the life of his companion.

It's mainly him and Biscuit who have to stop the Ant King, even if it only delays him for a few seconds, it's enough.

Knov's coordinates are nearby, so let the younger ones enter the other space of the four-dimensional apartment first.

The Ant King's strength is terrifying just from his aura, he could kill them instantly, so it is unrealistic to want everyone to enter the four-dimensional apartment.

Besides, the Ant King appeared too quickly!

Almost at the moment he felt the other party's breath, the sound of breaking through the air had already rung out.

Standing high in the sky, looking down at the ground, Meruem naturally saw the humans, the enemies, running away.

But he didn't care.

He had no intention of doing anything.

Instead, his eyes swept over the palaces.

Finally, he focused on a palace with an arched top.

Some blurry images flickered vaguely in his mind, telling him that it was there!

Shaiapouf's real body grabbed the Ant-King's tail, noticed where Meruem's gaze was, and immediately shouted, "King, clear out the humans in the palace first, this one!

He tried to distract Meruem.

But the ant king just gave him a look to shut him up.

Then he flew down from the sky and stood on the terrace.

This scene also stunned Morel, Biscuit, and others: The Ant King didn't even attack them?!

"King"

Shaiapouf opened his mouth to say something disrespectful.

The Ant King stared at the dark door leading into the hall with a calm expression.

Beneath his gaze, a young man exuding an aura of horror stepped out.

Even Meruem couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

The reason why he dared not underestimate this energy was because it was mixed with amazing willpower!

Just like that old man.

This is human.

You really can't underestimate that!

"Let's go somewhere else"

The person who stepped out was Gon.

The moment he saw the Ant King, his body changed under the stimulation of the violent thoughts.

By the time he completely walked out of the door, he had grown from a teenager to an adult, just like his dark appearance in the original novel.

The clothes he wears look like children's clothes on his strong body.

Gon had no expression of joy or sadness. He calmly looked at the Ant King, raised his thumb, pointed somewhere else, and said lightly.

At that moment, the Ant King saw it.

The young man, like the old man who had died, had a certain consciousness.

There is no way to negotiate.

There is no choice but to act.

"To save your companions?"

The Ant King understood that from the other side's perspective, his appearance was crucial.

If we don't do anything, all of humanity will die.

However, he still wanted to say something.

"That's enough, I won't kill the remaining humans. I will let you go."

"We don't need your pity."

Gon said: "Besides, you have committed an unforgivable crime.

""

The Ant King remained silent.

"Can you wait a moment?"

"How long?"

"Immediately."

The ant king said as he stepped forward as if he were defenseless and walked past Gon, not worrying at all that this human would attack him.

He entered the hall and saw the scattered chessboard.

And the remaining breath of Shaiapouf.

Because of Gon, Shaiapouf still didn't move the chessboard and scattered the chess pieces.

The moment he saw these things, the Ant King remembered everything.

"There is also a human scent Komugi who was taken away."

The ant king closed his eyes.

Komugisho should be safe.

Thinking of that, he turned around and went back without blaming Shaiapouf.

Instead, he looked at Gon and said, "You lead the way.

He would not kill this human, but he would end the battle quickly, and he would end it quickly, just by defeating him or making him unable to move.

At the same time, he can prove his intentions to the human side.

He needs Komugi.

Moreover, the boy's current condition
