Their movements were impossible to track.

Even without using any form of transportation, their speed wouldn't be slow, and they wouldn't leave a trace.

Finding Loki and the others wouldn't be as simple as tracking or gathering intelligence.

As Ging had predicted, Loki and the others moved in a way that made it impossible to detect their whereabouts.

High in the sky, several thousand meters above the ground, the enormous Fire Spirit soared forward.

Loki, perched atop the Fire Spirit, examined the Risk Dice in his hand. Hisoka and Pakunoda sat on the Fire Spirit's broad back, silently observing the landscape rushing beneath them. The Fire Spirit was far faster than any airship.

Their next destination was the Chimera Ant colony.

Although the system hadn't issued any new missions yet, Loki was already prepared. Whether or not the system would issue a mission, Loki knew he had to deal with the Chimera Ants.

For one reason: killing these ants and having the Fire Spirit consume their souls would greatly enhance its power.

Loki couldn't possibly pass up such an opportunity.

These ants were generally much stronger than human Nen users, making them ideal nourishment for the Fire Spirit.

After clearing Greed Island, the system began processing the mission rewards. The game completion reward was a draw.

The Grade A draw yielded an item: a black handgun.

Although incredibly powerful, its power couldn't surpass Loki's Nen.

He placed it in the system's storage and ignored it.

The special card collection reward was a Grade S draw.

Turning to the reward draw, Loki looked at the Risk Dice in his hand and tossed it. Using Nen to shield himself from the wind, the Risk Dice rolled across the Fire Spirit's head before finally landing on the "Great Fortune" side.

Seeing the result, Loki looked up at the system interface. 'Drawing…' "I hope this works!" Loki muttered.

'Drawing…' 'Drawing…' The "Drawing…" message appeared three times in a row. Loki closed his eyes, his gaze fixed on the system interface.

'Congratulations, host! You have drawn the Naruto world Grade S character, Haku!' 'Extracting…' 'Extraction complete. Host has obtained all abilities of the Grade S character, Haku.' A wave of coolness washed over Loki. A smile appeared on Loki's face.

"Ice Release! Excellent."

He wasn't sure if it was the Risk Dice's effect, but he could try again.

While feeling the power of Ice Release, he didn't notice a crack appearing on the Risk Dice.

Next was the reward for the Player Purge mission: a Grade S reward.

He picked up the Risk Dice again and tossed it. However, the moment the Risk Dice landed on "Great Fortune," it shattered into several pieces.

The fragments were blown away by the wind, disappearing before Loki's eyes.

Loki remained seated, his gaze fixed on the system interface. 'Drawing…' 'Drawing…' 'Drawing…' The same three-time notification sound effect played.

'Congratulations, host! You have drawn the One Piece world Grade S item, the Snow Snow Fruit!'

Looking at the Devil Fruit quietly resting in the system's storage, Loki recalled the Risk Dice shattering. After his first Grade S draw, obtaining Haku's Ice Release, he'd hoped for a related ability.

The second draw, the Snow Snow Fruit, undoubtedly proved the Risk Dice's effectiveness. But two Grade S draws had destroyed the Risk Dice.

It seemed that even with additional draw opportunities, the Risk Dice lacked the power to significantly alter Loki's luck.

Loki wasn't merely excited about obtaining two powerful abilities; this was a significant discovery—the abilities of this world could actually influence the system!

The information circulating among the Association's higher-ups was that Chairman Netero's recovery would take at least six months. During this period, the information would be kept under wraps; the only information released would be that the Chairman had suffered minor injuries and would recover soon. The Twelve Zodiacs would handle the Hunter Association's affairs in Netero's stead.

However, not all members of the Twelve Zodiacs were adept at handling such matters, so it ultimately fell to Cheadle, the most intelligent member, and Pariston, the honorary vice-chairman.

Netero's sudden, seemingly complete recovery caused suspicion among some, like Morel and Knov, who questioned the authenticity of the previous reports.

Morel sat on the sofa opposite Netero, placing his weapon aside and turning to him. "Chairman, were the rumors from that period true or false? Wasn't it said that your arm was—"

Morel paused, unable to directly utter the rest.

Netero, however, laughed at Morel's hesitant phrasing.

"What's there to be hesitant about? It's simply that this old man had an arm chopped off by a young brat." Netero raised the arm that should have been lost, slowly clenching his fist.

"Quite capable, that brat," Netero said, almost boastfully, looking at Morel and Knov, as if having an arm severed was something to be proud of.

Morel and Knov remained silent. As a legendary figure, the only universally recognized strongest Nen user in the world, even though he no longer possessed his peak strength, to be defeated and have an arm severed by a child, a child who hadn't even reached adulthood, in a single battle… was there anything to be proud of?

Netero ignored their strange expressions, continuing to smile and stroking his beard.

"I haven't heard the rumors circulating outside, but the truth is, I was utterly defeated! Defeated head-on by that young brat."

"If I hadn't reacted quickly, I might be dead now."

Netero's words, spoken with a smile, sent shockwaves through Morel and Knov.

They hadn't expected that the rumors were true—a head-on confrontation that resulted in Netero's defeat.

Such strength… even Ging would struggle to achieve it! Regardless of Netero's strength, the uniqueness of the 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva ability alone is something countless Nen users aspire to.

When using 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva, Netero doesn't use any Nen for defense.

Even a simple handgun could easily kill him at that moment.

Yet, even in that completely undefended state, Netero fearlessly faced any attack. Because…

100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva's attacks are too fast.
