Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 266 Meruem's Mercy
Owl Yapfu used the majority of himself that had been particleized and left the "Smoke Prison Blockade" to form a seemingly complete self.

It stood outside the "smoke prison blockade" and made noises to pretend that it had escaped.

Mo Laowu is an experienced hunter.

However, he was already a little anxious when he felt the mental energy of German and Yupi.

He could tell it was Germain, but he didn't know if Germain could handle Yupi.

Afterwards, the thoughts of Germain and Youpi disappeared one after another.

Mo Laowu, who was unaware of the situation and was trapped in the "smoke prison blockade", did not waver and insisted on using the tactic of blocking Xiao Yapufu.

However, when Owl Yapfu made a sound outside the "Smoke Prison Blockade" and said that it was going to meet up with the other "Three Guards" to kill the members of the Chimera Ant Subjugation Team, Mo Laowu was caught.

Holding your breath for a long time and insufficient breathing lead to insufficient thinking.

He thought that Owl Yapf had really left the "Smoke Prison Blockade", so he took the initiative to unlock the blockade and wanted to give chase.

At this time, Owl Yapfu's true form, the "Lord of the Flies", successfully escaped and laughed.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Mo Laowu noticed that the situation below the palace was a little strange. Without thinking too much about whether he had done the right thing or the wrong thing, he simply flew down and reunited with everyone else.

He was about to call everyone when he noticed that they were all looking in the same direction. He turned around and saw Pom.

"This……"

Pom looked at them with dark eyes, as if he was looking at a stranger.

They encountered an unexpected enemy, which was also their most troublesome enemy.

"Lord of the Flies" Owl Yapfu was flying in the air, flapping his little wings.

Countless particle-like "clones" that are smaller than it are hovering around the palace, investigating the situation.

It was about to laugh at Mo Laowu for a while, but stopped after seeing Youpi's corpse.

When Youpi's mental energy disappeared, it had some guesses, but it was battling wits and courage with Mo Laowu at the time, so it had no time to care about anything else.

Unexpectedly, Youpi actually died...

At whose hands did it die?

The group of people down there?
No, there was a strong energy of thought coming at that time, and the owner of that energy of thought was not here. Was it him who did it?

And the "King" and Neferpitou, their presence is not in the palace either, what's going on?

What the hell was going on out there while I was stuck in that asshole lockdown?
Why did it become like this?

Owl Yapov must find out the truth and find the whereabouts of the "King" and Neferpitou.

Then it noticed the figure below - the woman named Pom.

Hehehe...

After Pom was captured, he became Owl Yapof and Neferpitou's number one test subject - a test subject for their plan to transform humans into Chimera Ants in order to exterminate the human race.

Theoretically, Neferpitou has transformed Pom's brain, making her completely stand on the side of the Chimera Ants.

Most of the people confronting Pom below are Pom's companions.

Given their human habits, it would be difficult for them to attack their companions...

Owl Yapfu immediately decided to use his telepathic ability and Pom's special characteristics to obtain the information he wanted here.
-
The abandoned weapons testing site is underground, and the moonlight shines through the pierced rock formations and falls here.

Netero lost a hand and a leg in a fierce battle with the "Ant King".

The "Ant King" only had scratches on his body.

Then, Netero used up almost all of his mental energy and launched a final attack - "Hundred Generations Guanyin Zero Type".

This is equivalent to using oneself as a cannonball for "Hyakushiki Kannon Zero: Merciless Roar" and bombarding the "Ant King".

However, the "Ant King" still did not die, and he was not even seriously injured.

Netero, however, was already exhausted and emaciated, his breathing sounding like a bellows.

His vision became blurry, but he could still vaguely see the figure of the "Ant King" not far away.

Even after going this far, is there no way to inflict serious damage on him?
It seems that as a challenger, I have been completely defeated.

Netero didn't want to think about whether he could have defeated Meruem if he were in his fifties and at his peak.

It's pointless and boring.

The key is now.

That is indeed the case...but...no, there is no but.

Since I have already lost as a martial arts challenger.

Well, as the president of the Hunter Association and the representative of the human side, I must not lose.

He raised his intact hand, put his index and middle fingers together like a knife, and was about to stab into his chest.

However, at that moment, German's figure flashed before his eyes.

Germain...

Netero recalled the conversation Lin Nie had with him some time ago.

Lin Nie told him that German would surpass him, surpass him at his peak, and stand at the top of all the Nen users in the entire six continents.

The "Ant King" is not the invincible him, the strongest opponent he has been chasing all his life is German.

Is he?
In fact, Netero was already very satisfied with the battle with the "Ant King". He had already planned to let go of his obsession and face death calmly.

However, the time he spent in actual contact with German had aroused a certain desire in him.

He wants to see the future and see hope.

Netero coughed a few times and suddenly burst into laughter.

The "Ant King" stared at him, unable to understand why this dying old man was laughing like that.

Just as he had not been able to understand why the old man did not accept his advice to surrender.

Because of Netero's existence, the "Ant King" is willing to give preferential treatment to humans after ruling the world in the future. This is a respect for Netero, and it is the result of Netero's hard work.

But Netero refused.

Incomprehensible.

This is obviously the best outcome for mankind. What on earth is he dissatisfied with?
What is he laughing at now?
So the "Ant King" asked.

"what are you laughing at?"

Netero laughed for a while, then raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Then he regained his composure and looked at the "Ant King".

"Your name is Meruem. This is the name your mother gave you when she was dying."

The "Ant King" was stunned for a moment.

No matter how hard he pressed, Netero was unwilling to reveal the real name of the "Ant King".

Now Netero is willing to speak, why?
Meruem didn't understand.

Netero and Meruem stared at each other, unwavering.

"You indeed possessed the strongest combat power in the six continents when you were born. However, you still know too little about the malice and danger of humans."

"It is because humans are unwilling to be pets of Chimera Ants, or livestock kept by Chimera Ants, that things have become so complicated and I have gone to such lengths."

"You must die no matter what."

"Humanity does not need your mercy, nor does it need your rule, because that is just your whim. You will soon understand that only the complete extinction of humanity can ensure the continuation of the Chimera Ants."

"Meruem, there is only one ending for you today, there is no other possibility."

Meruem narrowed his eyes slightly.

He began to realize that he might not be able to convince the old man in front of him to switch sides.

As for what Netero just said, he didn't take it to heart.

Wheat taught him a lot, and he thought he knew how to rule humans.

Maybe one day, humans will become second-class citizens below chimera ants in his kingdom.

He would put this kind of thing into practice instead of just listening to Netero's one-sided words.

Meruem swung his tail and took a step forward, intending to get closer to Netero and take away another of his hands.

This way he would really be powerless to resist.

In the future, as long as Netero is willing to surrender, he will let Neferpitou heal Netero's injuries and even give Netero the greatest privilege - reincarnate Netero into a Chimera Ant.

In fact, he doesn't like the Chimera Ants that are reincarnated from humans.

This type of Chimera Ant has too much ego, which will harm and destroy the organizational structure of the Chimera Ant and hinder its rule.

However, for Netero, he was willing to make this exception, which was a respect for the strong.

Ok?
At this moment, Meruem noticed something and slowly raised his head.

In Meruem's vision, he saw a monster that looked like a dragon and a bird flying by in the clear night, and then a figure fell from the sky.

He roared, and then with a bang, he landed at the bottom of the abandoned weapons testing site, in front of Meruem and Netero.

Meruem stopped.

Netero lowered his head, breathing weakly.

"come yet……"

Germain glanced at Meruem, then walked towards Netero and stood next to him.

The clothes on his upper body had been burned in the battle with Youpi, and now all that was revealed was the hard black-based white bone armor, which seemed to be as tightly integrated with his flesh and blood.

A dark crown floats above his head.

As long as he stops fighting, the silver halo will be replaced by a dark crown.

But as long as he continues to fight, he will become more and more integrated with the mind beast "Chaos Roar", forming the current appearance of the armor.

By then, it will take longer to remove the Dark Crown.

"President, where is your "Breath of Archangel"? "

Netero chuckled, slowly raised his hand and pointed in a direction.

During the underground battle, he took the opportunity to bury the card box containing "Breath of the Archangel" underground in that direction.

If I have no hope of defeating Meruem now, then there is not much point in using "Breath of the Archangel" to heal my injuries and try again.

Now, maybe there is a chance.

Germain took out his card box, drew out "Breath of Archangel", and used it on Netero.

In an instant, the archangel revealed his holy figure and blew a healing breath towards Netero on the ground.

Meruem crossed his arms and did nothing.

He knew what it was because Netero and Zeno had used the same card ability on the injured Komugi.

However, Meruem saw no need to stop him.

Netero's condition was worse than he thought, and he might die in the next moment.

He looked at Netero's injuries from the perspective of the Chimera Ant, which was a bit presumptuous.

Human beings are still too fragile.

It would be good if this man saved Netero.

Meruem has read many human books during this period and learned a hundred ways for human monarchs to subdue enemy generals, one of which is the seven capture and seven release method.

He wouldn't mind knocking Netero down six more times until Netero was willing to kneel at his feet.
