"Chairman! Are you alright?"
Morel and Knov were worried about Netero's condition, but also astonished.
Up close, they saw the extent of his injuries.
Loki, a seemingly small kid, had done what most Nen users couldn't—nearly killing Netero.
The gaping wound in his chest was stark.
If anything happened to Netero, the Association would descend into chaos.
The last time Netero fainted, the Association had faced numerous problems; if he truly fell, the Hunter Association would face immense turmoil.
But Netero wouldn't let them approach. They didn't understand.
If he couldn't defeat Loki, they could escape using Knov's four-dimensional space and try again later.
Netero knew their thoughts. He understood his own condition better than anyone. A terrifying poison was rapidly consuming his cells—far worse than last time.
There was no cure; no one could save him.
All eyes were on Netero, who gasped for breath.
"Escape! Knov, Morel."
Knov and Morel immediately asked, "Chairman, are you…?"
"This brat… reaching this point isn't solely my fault, but I opened the door to Nen for him. As the one who unleashed the demon, I bear the responsibility."
Netero looked up at Loki.
"Impressive! You're truly impressive! Your abilities, talent, and potential are all monstrously exceptional. It's a pity…"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura locked onto Loki.
Loki, listening to Netero, hadn't expected an attack.
His hands were still; 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva shouldn't be activating.
Golden light flared behind him, spreading like a lotus blossom—100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva!
Loki, unable to turn, realized it was the Zero Hand—a technique usable without specific hand seals.
'I was careless!'
He'd become accustomed to Netero's hand seals, believing he could defend the moment he saw them, but he'd overlooked the Zeroth Palm Strike.
He'd thought the Shinsō attack had secured victory, forgetting the terrifying power of a dying man's resentment.
'Can I elementalize in time?'
In his relaxed state, instant elementalization was impossible.
Boom!!! 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva's palm enveloped Loki.
'No, it's too late!' Loki's eyes widened.
Clang!!! Multicolored light erupted from 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva's mouth. This happened in an instant.
Hisoka, Pakunoda, Baise, Knov, Morel, Balda, Ponzu, their companion, the Chimera Ant soldiers, Squadron Leaders, Neferpitou—everyone froze, their eyes fixed on 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Time truly stopped.
Without forcing their senses, they felt time compress.
Everyone was immobile, but their gazes followed 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva's roar.
Dazzling white light, like falling stars, descended.
One moment, the light had just appeared; the next, terrifying Nen, with unparalleled destructive power, erupted towards Loki.
Engulfed in the multicolored light, Loki didn't have time to elementalize.
No matter how fast he tried, it was too slow compared to Netero's attack.
Everyone's gaze was drawn to the light from 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva.
The light was incredibly dazzling, but beneath its beauty lay terrifying power.
Netero wasn't the weakened old man; he was at his peak.
The power of his Zero Hand Strike at this stage was immense.
If he'd used it against the King, the King wouldn't have just suffered minor injuries; he would have lost half his life.
Loki's current strength might not match the King's, and his human body, unprotected by Nen, couldn't compare to the Chimera Ants' tough and resilient bodies. Even with Nen protection, the difference was stark.
The same Nen would protect a human body like tofu and a Chimera Ant body like stone. The defensive effect would be vastly different. Loki's defense was far inferior to the King's.
'The Chairman has this ultimate technique,' Morel thought, speechless.
The Nen fluctuations were extraordinary.
Loki's fate seemed sealed—death.
Knov, like Morel, was astonished by Netero's attack speed, especially since his body was essentially frozen.
Perhaps it wasn't his body but time itself that was frozen.
Everyone watched the dazzling light, their expressions a mixture of awe and fear.
The approaching Chimera Ants were also shocked by 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva.
This was the first time they experienced time seeming to freeze.
