Chapter 31 : Fighting and nervousness

In Knov's dimension all team members were standing in front of the exit door, ready to intervene.

Morel approached the exit door which he opened by looking at a watch.

"Ten seconds to go, stand by!"

Everyone was silent as the seconds passed slowly, and James, who had volunteered to keep Menthuthuyoupi away from the king, had a serious look on his face as he used the Ten directly.

He looked at Morel as the seconds passed, his heartbeat increased, and for a brief moment, Killua, who was close to him, noticed a brief smile on his lips.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine..."

"Ten! GO!!!" Morel shouted waving his smoking pipe, they all rushed through the door, James in the lead.

. . .

In a large hall with many pillars and a large staircase through the ceiling in harmony with the architecture of the room, a red creature resembling a man sat on a yawning step.

At the same time, behind the staircase, a deep black hole with a blue rim opened in the floor and expelled first two men, then three, and so on, who rushed up the stairs.

Approaching the stairs at full speed, one of them noticed the red creature while continuing to move forward, the others noticed it as well but all kept moving forward.

James in the lead was the least surprised, he already knew what was going to happen, he was calm and composed.

He quickly advanced straight ahead towards Youpi surprising the others impressed by his reactivity.

"Bravo!" thought Morel, who also continued on his way by spitting smoke.

The body of the creature, Yippee, changed at that precise moment, his eyes became scarlet, outgrowths developed very quickly on his skin before turning into four long monstrous arms.

Yippee whose gaze had become malicious and brutal frightened all those present who felt from the body of this strange being a feeling of terror, James always came forward with a ruthless and cold look as if the opponent before him could only be defeated, this act once again impressed all the hunters present.

"How can he show such courage in the face of this monster."

Shoot thought as he activated his Hatsu, as he watched James step forward without fear or hesitation, at that moment he felt admiration.

At the same time the floor wobbled under their feet, the ceiling shattered and several nen arrows crashed into the room.

Everyone except James and Killua were stunned for a moment, not understanding what was happening, at the same time Gon moved towards the stairs at full speed but quickly stopped because James gave him a brief wave with his hand.

This movement meant, "Move back."

Seeing that, Gon jumped back without hesitation, Killua and the others who came to their senses seeing the sign made by James also stepped back.

At the same time Youpi received a powerful punch in his left ribs, surprising everyone.

They understood that it was a sign from Knuckle and Meleoron, to warn them that they were alive.

Yippi, surprised for a brief moment, looked to his left, looking for the one who launched the attack, but he saw no one.

Not seeing the author of this attack, dozens of eyes appeared on the surface of his body scanning the surroundings, at that very moment James was entering his attack range.

Yippi angrily hit him with all six of his limbs, James immediately went into a defensive state, using Ken,

His body was then protected by a thick layer of aura, but the power of Yippi's attack was such that his ken was torn in one blow, he was pushed back and his clothes were torn, but then a smile appeared on James' lips.

The tattoo on his right fist lit up as his hand was surrounded by an incredible amount of aura.

He then shouted out loud.

"Name, Menthuthuyoupi, Evil Detective Assistant, start of the investigation!"

A strange creature appeared behind James with a typewriter and began to write on it at full speed.

James' smile was even bigger, while at the same moment a powerful aura enveloped the entire palace, stopping everyone for a brief moment, even James had a slight fright when he felt this aura.

He advanced all the same and using all his strength, exploding his aura out of his body at its limits, he punched Youpi.

"Shock wave blow : Five layers!"
