As the smoke cleared, the hip-hop guy stood iermath, his shirt in tatters and faint burn marks across his chest. He hadn’t had time to fully defend himself, but the damage wasn’t nearly as bad as Larry had expected. With a grin, the hip-hop guy ripped off what was left of his burnt shirt, revealing his well-defined, muscur physique. His body seemed to have grown slightly rger—an unmistakable sign that his Nen ability had activated.***Name: Extra no 3 Hip-hop Mah: B-Nen Ability: Scars Are a Man's Medals – An Enhaype ability that boosts his strength and speed in proportion to the severity of his injuries. The more damage he takes, the stronger he bees, with a limit of two minor stage increases.***Larry couldn’t help but think of how this ability resembled a beserker, whose attacks became fiercer the lower his health got.

  Neguro, seeing that the sneak attack had failed, narrowed his eyes and spoke coldly. “If you three leave now, I’ll spare you... but you’re not taking a single with you.” Before he could finish, a whip shed out toward him, slig through the air with a sharp crack!

  The whip was long, thick, and tipped with a sinister hook, glowing faintly with a dark red hue—almost as if it had been soaked in blood. Neguro smirked, diverting a portion of his aura to his legs and stomping down hard. The grouh him shattered, sending cracks like a spider’s web across the stone floor. The force of the impact propelled him backward with surprising agility, allowing him to dodge the attack effortlessly.***Name: Extra no 4 Leather-ah: Ability: Vampire Whip – A Materialization-type ability that mas a whip up to four meters long. When it breaks through an oppo’s defe absorbs their blood and verts it into aura to restore the user’s stamina.**

  Almost simultaneously, two silver-white s shot out from the hands of the man with gsses. Surprisingly, they didn’t target Neguro or his guards, but instead ed securely around the waists of the leather-an and the hip-hop guy. Larry observed closely and realized the s weren’t meant to restrain, but to enhance.***Name: Extra no 5 Gsses Mah: Ability: Shared of Kin – A Specialist-type ability that creates up to two white s, linking the user and two others. It allows the wearer to redistribute aura ption and enhas among the linked individuals.Restri & Oath: This ability only works on his blood retives, but in exge, it grants him a greater pool of o manage.***

  Larry couldn't help but admire how well the siblings' abilities plemented each other.

  In the world of Nen, every ability has its strengths and weakhe key to maximizing potential lies in finding others whose abilities plement your own. When abilities are used in perfect synergy, they create a force far greater than the sum of their parts. For the three siblings, their cooperation rime example of this. The leather-an inflicted damage to gee Nen, which the man with gsses theributed to the hip-hop guy, providing him with a tinuous energy supply. The gsses man also acted as a reservoir, ready to distribute additional Nen whenever needed.

  Their teamwork allowed them to sustain themselves in battle far lohan most could imagine. If either the leather-an or the gsses man were ihe gsses man could trahe damage to the hip-hop guy, whose ability thrived on taking hits. As long as they kept the damage under trol, the enemy’s attacks would only serve tthen them.

  However, as Larry analyzed their strategy, he w weaknesses. First, their overall strength was g. Even with the hip-hop guy pushed to his absolute limit, his peak performance would only reach B+ level. And by the time he reached that point, his injuries would be severe, making it impossible to sustain the fight for long.

  Sed, their team had no means of actual healing. They could redistribute damage and replenish Nen, but without a way to truly recover, prolonged battles would iably wear them down. A healer would plete their formation, but Nen users with healing abilities were notoriously rare. Additionally, the gsses man’s ability was bound by an oath ari—it only worked on his blood retives, which further limited their options.

  Larry couldn’t help but refle what made Hunter x Hunter such a captivating world. For him, it boiled down to two major factors: the vast, uncharted universe and the sheer variety of Nen abilities. The revetion that the known world was nothing more than a tiny archipego in the vast Lake Mobius had left him stunned when he first read about it. The sheer scale of the Hunter x Hunter world was unmatched in any anime or manga he had ever seen. The cept of the Dark ti—an unfathomable expahat dwarfed the known world—only added to the sense of infinite possibility, a boundless adventure waiting to be explored.

  A, his amazement only deepened with time as the mangaka’s frequent hiatuses fueled his imagination further. Sometimes, he couldn’t help but wonder—was it iional? Perhaps leaving so many mysteries unsolved art of the pn, a clever trick to keep fans yearning for more. After all, an unanswered question lingers in the mind far lohah a satisfying clusion.

  Then there were the Nen abilities themselves, eaore unique and bizarre tha. From the terrifying ability to steal others’ Nen with Skill Huo the ability that has the properties of both rubber and gum, the variety was endless. Larry’s insatiable curiosity thrived in this world, where eater presented a new mystery to unravel. He khat Nen battles were more than just raw power; they were battles of intelligerategy, aion.

  The key to victory often y in unc the oppo’s abilities before they figured out yours. In this sense, his cheatlike ability to analyze and draw clusions quickly gave him an edge that Neguro and his men cked. Larry’s musings were cut short as Neguro’s eyes darkened, a malicious glint fshing behind his sungsses. “You fools have no idea what you’re dealing with,” he sneered, spreading his arms wide.

  In an instant, a massive swarm of Need is materialized out of thin air and surged toward the siblings. The deafening buzz filled the cavern, and in mere seds, the swarm grew into a writhing tide of bck, crawling horrors. For ah a fear of is, the sight alone would have been enough to indusciousness.

  ***Name: Negurth: BNen Ability: Swarm of Rese – A Materialization-type ability that gees a relentless wave of deadly is. The swarm doesn’t kill its victims instantly; instead, it gradually devours them, maximizing their suffering to produtense death aura. If the victim succumbs to despair, the swarm absorbs the resultih aura, growing even more vicious and resilient with each absorbed emotion.***

  Larry studied Neguro closely. It was often said that a person’s Nen ability reflected their true nature. Just as Hisoka’s Bungee Gum represented his deceptive and pyful personality, the siblings' abilities highlighted their strong familial bonds. Neguro’s ability, however, painted a much darker picture—cruel, relentless, and desigo prolong suffering. It was clear he wasn’t the type to py fair.
