Hunter: You Call This Food Hunter?

The candidates didn't pay much attention to the environment of the hotel. They followed Netero to an empty hall.

This was originally a place for diners to eat, but the tables and chairs were cleared by the association members for the next assessment.

"The final assessment takes the form of a one-on-one elimination match."

Netero lifted the white cloth covering the blackboard and showed the contents on the blackboard to the remaining nine candidates.

"This is your schedule."

The nine candidates were all surprised. Some were surprised by the final assessment format, and some were surprised when they saw their next opponent.

After coming back to their senses, several candidates looked at Hanzo faintly.

Apparently they haven't forgotten what happened a few days ago when Hanzo tricked them into endorsing something.

But at this time, they are more worried about the next knockout rounds.

Because judging from the schedule, only one person can finally pass the Hunter exam and become an official Hunter, so the competition is very fierce.

The only ones who can handle it with ease are Hisoka, who has mastered Nen, and Ilmi, who is disguised as Gittarackur.

However, the old man Netero is not a person who likes to play by the rules.

He introduced to everyone: "The conditions for passing this final assessment are very simple. You only need to win one game to pass."

"In other words, the winners will stand out one after another, while the losers will reach the top of the schedule and be eliminated. Do you all understand?"

A very simple and easy-to-understand rule, it just changes the concept of the ultimate winner into the ultimate loser.

But this novel promotion method still made Hanzo couldn't help but confirm: "In other words, there will only be one person who fails in the end, right?"

"That's right."

Netero nodded and said: "And everyone will have more than two chances to win."

His arrangement is very reasonable, but some people don't think so.

Candidate No. 191 Boudreaux asked: "I think the schedule is unfair. What's the reason?"

It’s not that he thinks it’s unfair because some people and machines have more than 10 people.

But as a martial artist, Boudreau didn't really want to face kids like Gon and Killua.

This will make him feel invincible.

Although, in fact, Boudreau is not Killua's opponent, and even Gon may not be able to beat him.

After all, he is just an old martial arts master who has not yet begun to read, but on the other side are two new generation geniuses with unlimited potential.

Netero saw this, but didn't point it out explicitly.

He explained: "The schedule was drawn up by me based on your previous assessment results."

"Simply put, people with good grades will get more opportunities."

Curious, Killua asked: "I still don't understand it. Can you explain the scoring criteria in detail?"

"Yeah." Netero nodded, "No!"

Blue veins pop up on Killua's forehead. If you can't do that, just nod!

He shouldn't have talked to this bad old man!

Netero ignored Killua's displeasure and continued:

"The scoring content is confidential to the association, but I can briefly tell you about it."

"The review criteria for scoring can be roughly divided into three categories: physical ability value, mental ability value, and impression score."

"Physical ability value refers to the comprehensive value of agility, explosiveness, endurance, and facial sense ability."

“The mental ability value refers to the comprehensive value of mental aspects such as patience, toughness, judgment, creativity, etc.

"As for the final impression score, it is a score that cannot be assessed by the first two items."

"Although there are no specific criteria, it is the most important one. You can think of it as Hunter's qualification evaluation."

"Of course it also depends on how committed you are to this trial."

"That's about it."

After Netero finished speaking, he gave the candidates time to think.

Killua thought back on Hunter's performance in the exam and found that he was indeed not as good as Gon in terms of qualifications.

No wonder Gon had five chances and he only had three.

Others also recalled their previous performances and estimated their qualifications.

"The rules of the game are also very simple, there are no rules."

"You can use any weapon, as long as the other party says the word "admit defeat", you will win."

Eaton on the side heard this and rubbed his chin.

He was thinking that since he could use any weapon, what would be an interesting scene if he lent his RPG to Gon?

Will his opponent, the talkative Hanzo, simply admit defeat?

Eighty percent yes?

After all, the profession of ninja is quite similar to that of a killer. Most ninjas will not fight an uncertain battle.

Oh, except for a certain Kyuubi Jinchuuriki, that's an idiot.

But think about it carefully and forget it.

Not to mention whether Gon will accept it, Eaton doesn't want to be blackmailed by Netero for destroying the venue.

You must know that his RPG has an improved warhead and a specially made mind energy bomb.

Apart from anything else, there is no problem with a warhead going down and razing the entire hotel to the ground.

In order to prevent Hunter X Hunter from ending at the beginning, Eaton gave up the idea of ​​​​making trouble.

Netero glanced at Eaton thoughtfully and found that Eaton was just standing there quietly.

So he regarded the palpitations he had felt for less than a second just now as an illusion.

He added to the candidates: "However, one thing to note is that if you kill the opponent, you will immediately lose your qualification for the competition.

"The remaining people will be considered qualified and the competition will end immediately."

This year's candidates have good qualifications, and Netero doesn't want these people to be here.

After introducing the rules of the competition, several young and strong men wearing black suits and sunglasses walked out.

Although these people look a lot like bodyguards, they are actually referees of the Hunter Association.

One of them stepped forward and introduced: "I am the referee of this game, Ma Shitai. Please give me your advice.

"The first match, Hanzo vs. Gon!"

The two people who were called stepped forward, and the others also gave up their positions.

As for the arena used for competitions, you can't expect a hotel to prepare that kind of thing.

And there is no rule that you will lose if you fall off the stage, so it is better to leave enough open space for the candidates to perform freely.

After Hanzo came up, he first greeted the examiner.

"Hey, long time no see. Are you the one who followed me during the 4th exam?"

Masta felt ashamed.

It wasn't because Hanzo recognized him, but because he didn't know how to reply to Hanzo's "Long time no see".

The fourth exam was just a few days ago, why haven’t we seen each other for so long?

"Did you discover me then?"

Ma Shitai was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Hanzo, a non-nature, could find him.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that he didn't hide it very seriously.

"certainly."

Hanzo said: "During the fourth exam, didn't every examinee have an examiner like you following him?"

"I think other people should have found out too."

that's the truth.

Each candidate is accompanied by such an examiner.

After all, the Hunter Association can't let those failed candidates stay on the island to fend for themselves, right?

But Hanzo’s last sentence was not accurate.

Gon and Leorio didn't know anything about the examiner.

Seeing the reaction of the two, Kurapika complained: "You should be able to discover this kind of thing without me reminding you, right?"

It stands to reason that Gon and Leorio's abilities are indeed good, because the examiners did not hide them too deliberately.

However, the simple-minded duo did not think about it in this aspect, and naturally they could not talk about discovering the examiner who was secretly following them.

"Let me say thank you first!"

Hanzo smiled and said: "My rating must be so high because of your wise review!"

Masta forced a smile. The schedule was drawn up by President Netero and had nothing to do with him.

But he didn't refute Hanzo.

President Netero can say so much because he is the president. He, a small referee, is not qualified to reveal the secrets of the association.

Fortunately, Hanzo did not dwell on this topic. He instead asked:

"But I have something to ask you."

"what?"

Ma Shitai responded while complaining in his mind that Hanzo talked too much.

"To determine victory or defeat, does it only require the opponent to shout "admit defeat"?"

"Even if the opponent is injured and faints, it doesn't count. There is no time limit, right?"

"Well, that's right."

Ma Shitai raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

As expected, those who have made it this far are all elites, and they have discovered the hidden conditions for winning or losing the game so quickly.

Only by shouting the word "admit defeat" can the winner be determined.

This means that even if someone is weaker than his opponent, he still cannot defeat the opponent with his extraordinary perseverance.

As long as the opponent shouts "admit defeat" impatiently, it is considered a victory.

Of course, the premise is that your opponent will not be angered and have the idea of ​​​​killing you regardless of disqualification.

If it does, then you can only ask for blessings.

Hanzo was obviously aware of this. He looked at Gon, knowing that this opponent would be very difficult.

After several exams, Hanzo was not impressed by Gon, but he still had some understanding of him.

He knew that this kid was a strong-willed and difficult type.

But Hanzo is still confident.

The ninja's skills included interrogation, and he was confident that it would not be difficult to make a kid admit defeat.

"ready, go!"

After the two were ready, Maerstah announced the start of the game.

Before he finished speaking, Gon ejected and ran towards the left.

He tried to use speed to disrupt Hanzo's rhythm, waiting for an opportunity to find a breakthrough point.

Eaton looked amused in the audience.

So in the final analysis, it was a consequence of being uneducated. Gon didn't know that one of the things ninjas were best at was speed.

Before Gon and Hanzo could distance themselves, Hanzo appeared in front of Gon.

The speed was beyond Gon's expectation.

"Are you confident in your speed?"

"I don't deny this. As far as a child is concerned, you are pretty good."

Hanzo said as he reached out and hit Gon on the back of the head.

It was still too fast for Gon to react, and it was a hit without a doubt.

Gon fell to the ground, but did not pass out.

After all, there was no way to tell the winner, so Hanzo still controlled his strength.

But even so, Gon still felt dizzy, and his reaction was also much slower.

The protagonist's family and friends on stage were all worried about Gon.

"If this was just a normal game I would have won."

Hanzo lifted Gon up, held him in his hand and made a wish.

"Hey! Are you awake?"

"Now you should know the gap between you and me, right?"

"Admit defeat as soon as possible. Stop struggling in vain."

Gon regained his composure, stuck out his tongue and said, "No!"

Before he finished speaking, Hanzo slapped him again.

"If you admit defeat now, it will have little impact on your next game. Showing off your strength will not do you any good.

Hanzo's voice

The crazy trembling of his brain reached Gon's ears.

After calming down a bit, Gon gritted his teeth and said: "I don't want to surrender! 11

What followed was another punch and kick from Hanzo.

Leorio on the side could not help but persuade Gon to surrender.

However, he only tried to persuade him before being stopped by Kurapika.

In fact, both of them knew that if the person on the stage were replaced by themselves, they would not say the word "admit defeat" like that.

But they just want Gon to surrender.

The conflicting and heavy feelings left the two of them speechless.

Three hours passed during Hanzo's violent beating of Gon.

Eaton took Menchi to lunch and came back, but Gon still didn't admit defeat.

Finally, the grumpy Leorio couldn't bear it anymore, and he said angrily to Hanzo:

"Hey! If you dare, let me fight you instead of Gon, and see if I don't kill you! You bastard!

Hanzo turned sideways and looked at Leorio and said, "If you can't stand it, just walk away. Anyway, as long as this brat doesn't admit defeat, I will keep fighting."

Leorio couldn't bear it anymore and rushed forward, but was stopped by the referee before he could take two steps.

Ma Shitai said: "This is a one-on-one duel, and other people are not allowed to interfere in the game. If you help the Gon player, the Gon player will be disqualified.

Upon hearing this, Leorio could only stand there and watch with gritted teeth.

"I'm okay Leorio."

Gon's voice came from behind Hanzo.

"I'm not afraid of such trivial tricks at all. I can still persist..."

Hanzo slapped Gon to the ground again without using much force.

Hanzo admitted that he underestimated the brat's resilience.

He was tired of struggling for so long, so he was ready to give Gon a hard slap.

He pushed Gon to the ground, twisted Gon's left hand and said, "I'm going to break your hand!"
