The Protagonist's Career Starting From Hunter

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...

Like a magic trick, poker cards appeared between Hisoka's hands and fingers. He not only rushed towards Bailang at high speed but also flicked eight poker cards with both hands.

Using "Concentration" to observe.

Bailang could see that the eight flying poker cards were covered in a sticky gum-like aura.

"The tactical arrangement is good, but it's useless..."

Bailang remained calm and used "Shadow Step" to move, evading the approaching poker cards and staying out of their attack range.

Precise manipulation, like a puppet show.

Hisoka clearly knew that it would be difficult to hit Bailang with his poker cards. So when he saw Bailang dodge, he immediately twisted his fingers and used his extended "Bungee Gum" to change the trajectory of the cards.

The cards that were about to miss their target suddenly curved like birds in flight, all chasing after Bailang.

"So this is possible..."

Bailang was somewhat surprised when he keenly noticed the pursuing poker cards.

But he immediately responded, changing his footwork and altering his direction, causing the pursuing cards to miss again.

A gleam flashed in Hisoka's eyes as he skillfully manipulated all the poker cards to descend and embed themselves in the ground.

The cards embedded in the ground were connected to strands of gum-like aura, sticking to the surface.

Contract.

In an instant, the eight strands of gum-like aura stuck to the ground contracted simultaneously, exerting an astonishing pulling force on Hisoka at the other end.

Taking advantage of the force, Hisoka burst forth with an unimaginable speed in an instant.

"Heiha!!!"

Almost skimming the ground, Hisoka's terrifying speed turned him into a linear phantom, catching up to Bailang in the blink of an eye.

In close proximity, Hisoka's face contorted with excitement as he let out a strange cry.

With his perfected "Flow," Hisoka condensed 80% of his aura into his right hand, and with a powerful knife-hand strike, he aimed for Bailang's neck.

"So fast!!!"

Hisoka's series of actions were truly stunning, especially the explosive speed unleashed by the eight "Bungee Gum" strands. Even Bailang could only barely catch a glimpse of his opponent.

His pupils contracted, and in a state of shock, Bailang decisively used "Bullet Time."

Buzz!

The power of time manipulation... Well, controlling the power of time is impossible. "Bullet Time" simply compresses one's own perception of time.

Of course, the desired effect was achieved for Bailang.

Under the compressed perception of time, everything outside of oneself seemed to switch to slow-motion, including Hisoka.

The previously astonishingly fast Hisoka now appeared to Bailang as slow as an eighty-year-old lady. Whether it was the stabbing hand or the moving figure, everything was exceptionally slow.

"That was close, I almost got hit..."

Bailang felt a lingering fear. It was a close call, almost revealing his superior close combat abilities.

As a Manipulator Nen user, this was the carefully crafted image he had just managed to create.

"Bullet Time" is not actually changing the flow of time. Although it can create more reaction time, one's own speed must be able to keep up.

Take, for example, the battle between the Ant King and Netero in the original work.

Facing Netero's Hundred-Type Guanyin, the Ant King is like Bailang's "Bullet Time," compressing his perceived time to an astonishing degree with his terrifying talent.

In this process, the Ant King can clearly capture the attacks of the Hundred-Type Guanyin, but his speed is not as fast as the attack speed of the Hundred-Type Guanyin.

The result is that he still cannot dodge and can only be blasted away by the Hundred-Type Guanyin time and time again.

Of course, Hisoka is not Netero.

Even though Bailang's compressed perceived time is not as good as the Ant King's, it is already enough to deal with Hisoka.

Moving step by step.

When Hisoka slowly approaches, Bailang's body also slowly moves to the side.

With the ability to capture Hisoka's attacks, it is obviously not a problem for Bailang to dodge the opponent's attacks with his speed.

The slowness is in the state of "Bullet Time," and the reality is that Bailang demonstrates an incredible reaction speed. With a flash, he avoids Hisoka's hand knife, causing the two to quickly pass each other.

"Avoided?!"

At the moment when the hand knife misses, Hisoka's expression changes slightly.

With his current attack, the other party can actually dodge it. Could it be that the other party is someone with naturally strong reflexes?

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...

Just as Hisoka is uncertain and turns to look at Bailang, who has just passed by and moved behind him, suddenly, his gaze abruptly freezes halfway and stops in the nearby dense forest.

There, tiny black shadows appear and quickly head towards Bailang, who has just avoided Hisoka's attack.

As they approach, these tiny black shadows reveal their true form, which is a series of long needles with small ball-shaped tips...

To be precise, they should be nen needles.

A gust of air roars!

It's the Heavy Iron Sword.

Although it was just thrown away by Hisoka, it quickly stops its momentum and prepares to return to continue attacking Hisoka.

However, with the sudden appearance of the nen needles, the Heavy Iron Sword, eager to protect its master, changes direction without hesitation and immediately collides with all the nen needles in the middle of the way with a fierce impact.

Hisoka's face darkens when he notices the nen needles. He sinks his body and grabs the ground with his right hand.

His five fingers plow the ground, creating a five to six-meter-long trench, but Hisoka manages to stop his inertia.

On the other side, Bailang, who has avoided Hisoka's attack, has already stopped.

The Heavy Iron Sword flies to his side after intercepting the nen needle attacks, hovering in mid-air with its sword tip pointing towards the dense forest where the nen needles appeared.

Bailang also gazes in the same direction.

Taking a step forward.

Under the failure of the nen needle attack, the attacker walks out of the dense forest.

With long black hair scattered, the person's face is delicate and fair like that of a woman.

The person who walks out is none other than the unmasked Ilumi.

An astonishing aura emanates from Ilumi's body, especially with the intense malice mixed in, making it seem like countless black lines of airflow are emanating from his back.
