Chapter 3 : Reunion

"Mr. James!"

Gon suddenly exclaimed, Killua and Leorio were surprised, especially Killua.

"What are you guys doing here?"

Gon approached with a big smile and then said in a happy voice.

"Mr. James, how are you, I'm happy to see you again."

Leorio also approached with his hands in his pockets and a slight smile.

"Good to see you, Mr. James."

"Stop calling me Mr, we're friends, aren't we? Just call me James."

"Okay, Mr. James." Said Gon nodding his head.

Killua stayed away without lowering his guard.

"What are you doing here?"

James looked at Killua who was suspicious and scratched his hair with boredom at the thought of the vigilant nature of this child.

"It was you Mr. James who spied on us?" Gon asked with a curious air.

"Actually it wasn't you I was looking for, but by chance I met you."

"But may I ask what you're doing here?"

James looked at Leorio, who hastened to answer the question.

In summary, Leorio, Gon, and Killua invite people off the street to participate in their event where people can challenge Gon in an arm-wrestling contest and if they win they can obtain a diamond worth 3 million.

Their goals are to raise as much money as possible before the big auctions.

"I see your target is probably Greed Island."

"Yes that's right, the information you gave me was true, I'm sure now I can find clues about my father in Greed Island."

Gon raised his fists of determination, while Killua further frowned.

"It's not the time for too much talk, let's get on with our business, otherwise the customers will leave!"

Interrupted Leorio, pointing to the long line of people who wanted to try their luck.

"Well then I bid you farewell, here's my address, I'll be at Hotel Bayloke in the next few days, if you need any help don't hesitate to come to the hotel reception and ask for me."

Leorio and Gon said him goodbye, Killua remained silent, but before leaving James suddenly stopped and said.

"I have to warn you, don't get involved in business of the Phantom Troupe, you are too weak, your mastery of Nen is absolutely not enough to face them."

Then before the three could say a word James disappeared into the crowd.

"What was he trying to tell us?"

James's words plunged Killua into deep reflection as Gon and Leorio quickly forgot James's words and went about their business.

. . . . . . .

James left the bull market and walked around the city sometimes stopping in front of some buildings before continuing on his way, in the evening at about 6 p.m. James had already visited almost all the most important buildings and monuments in Yorknew City, he had already memorized the map of the city and the different itineraries

He stopped a cab and was taken to the Bayloke Hotel, it was one of the most luxurious hotels in Yorknew, he entered the hotel and booked a suite, leaving his name at the front desk and saying to let him know if he had visitors.

He took the elevator and went up to a luxurious suite with sumptuous decorations, a living room, a bedroom with a king size bed and marble furniture.

He approached the bay window in the living room and watched the city from a height of 80 floors.

"The first of September, it's time for the return game."

James clenched his fists while staring at the landscape, then went to the bathroom, took a long bath before getting dressed.

He sat down on the living room carpet and began to meditate, his nen slowly emerged from his body and created an even layer of aura on his skin.

He continued meditating until 7:40 p.m. and made sure his body was in good condition; he then made a brief assessment of his pure strength.

"I now only need 6 aura units per second to maintain my Ken, my M.A.P. is about 29,000 units, my P.A.P. is 2416 aura units, and each of my punches contains 201 aura units during a combat state."

""Each of my fists therefore inflicts an equal force to one of my Cannon Balls attacks, when I was facing Amstrong, my shockwave alchemy used at a level almost equal to my fight against the three state alchemists should cost me 12,000 aura units, normal use should cost me about a thousand aura units for strong attacks and 500 for weak attacks."

"My pure strength, my reflexes, my suppleness, my senses are at their peak."

James stood up, took a deep breath and left the room, he left the hotel and stopped a cab.

"Where do you want to go?"

James sat in the back and took out of his pockets a stack of bills and gave them to the speechless cabbie.

"30,000,000 for your car, if you agree to get out of the car and go home."

When the cab driver heard this, he got angry, he thought it was a scam, but as soon as he looked at the stack of banknotes, he shivered, checked the money meticulously with an expert eye and came to a quick conclusion. Real banknotes!

"It's a deal!!"

He threw the keys to James without hesitation and got out of the cab at a speed that would even make Usain Bolt blush with shame.
