Chapter 25: Ant King’s Castle

[... Ren, you don't understand… Kite was one of the only people who cared for me when I was little, then he was taken away from me by a monster. If you were in my position and Kite was Killua would you let it go?]: gon

[Your right, I would take revenge…]: soren

[Then you see wh-]: gon

[But!... I wouldn't base my power around it… You both were taught Nen right?]: soren

[Yeah, what does Nen have to do with this?]: killua

[You both have a Hatsu (Nen release)?]: soren

[Yeah, again, what does this situation have anything to do with Nen?]: killua

[Did your teacher not tell you that Even when you create a Nen ability you can change and evolve it?... Well to put it in simple terms, Your Aura is always changing, be it in amount, quality or power… With these how you call them power ups your Nen abilities will change to fit what the body is trying to perform, so if you base your Nen around being neutral and then suddenly change it to pure hatred then it will destroy your body over time and you will in turn lose your abilities]: soren

[Wow, I didn't think about it like that]: killua

[So Gon… I ask you once more, but reword the question, will you gain strength to fight for others, or yourself?]: soren

[... I want to get stronger to protect everyone around me!]: gon

[...Good! Now, I will be going in to attack the Ants. I will leave Knov and Morel here to help you improve your fighting capabilities, once you improve to an acceptable standard come join me]: soren

As Soren said this he was about to take off before he was stopped by Killua.

[Wait… Soren, where were you for a year? You never came home and I never heard anything about you from the hunters Association. Where did you go?]: killua

[I was in training for that whole year up to almost 5 weeks ago]: soren

[So how strong are you now?]: killua

[Well… I guess I can show you what kind of progress I made over this year. Prepare yourselves]: soren

As Soren told them all to prepare he release about half of his power to show what kind of progress he made.

[HAA!!!]: soren

The half of Soren's power that came out crushed everyone with extreme pressure, Killua looked like his head was going to explode because of Killua's Mind control needle. After Soren seen this he retracted his power and walked over to Killua.

[S-stay back…]: killua

[Killua, it's okay, come here]: soren

As Soren walked close to Killua, Killua started to back up as if something was telling him to flee.

[Killua! Snap out of it, Illumi placed something inside of you when we were younger. He tried to do the same to me but I broke out of it]: soren

When Killua heard this he came back to normal and was a bit pissed to find out that Illumi was controlling him.

[Come here, let me remove it for you]: soren

When Killua came in front of me I lifted my hand and used my King's Haki to crush the power of the needle and it disappeared.

[Your free from his control now… I will be going ahead to kill some of these Ants, enjoy your training boys]: soren

As Soren was leaving the area to go fight the 3 guards of the King Killua screamed into the sky.

[We are the same age!!!]: killua

[Okay boys… Time to train, follow me]: morel

Gon and Killua followed Morel and Knov to a private place to train their Nen so they could go help Soren. On the other hand Soren is dashing through the Ant Nest using Armament Haki to cover his Manipulated Fingers that look like sharp daggers.

[Do you think you can ki-]: ant

[Haha! Nice try you pests, I will wipe out your entire species]: soren

Soren was running through the nest killing everything he could see. The look of enjoyment was all over his face, he was even counting his kills.

[Hehe! 136, 142, 237. This is so easy, I will kill everything before the true threat even starts]: soren

Soon he entered the Queens room to see that Meruem was born and had left the nest, He walked up to the Queen and asked.

[Where did he go?]: soren

[My, son… H-his n-name i-i-is Meruem, please tell him]: queen

[Looks like she is dead now… if I remember correctly, Kite's reincarnation is still inside her]: soren

Soren looked inside the womb and searched for Kite. when he found him, Kite was super small, even smaller than a normal baby.

[Whaaaa!… Whaaa!]: baby kite

[...Kite, you shall journey with me and get stronger before returning to Gon, let's go kill the Ant King]: soren

With those words Soren opened his System and asked Sakura to buy him one body hardening pill and one body strengthening pill, then asked for the system to integrate them into Kites body.

{DING!... HOST HAS INTEGRATED BOTH PILLS INTO KITE'S BODY, REMAINING POINTS ARE (4.600)

[Wow, that cost me a lot of points, at least I hardly use them]: soren

After Kites baby body absorbed the 2 pills his body became stronger.

[Let's leave this place now]: soren

Soren ripped a long piece of clothing off of his set of robes he got from the hunter association that he put in his system for later. Then made a sling and put Kite inside it and wrapped it around his back.

[With this and those pills I should have no problem running and jumping but when fighting I should be a bit more careful as to not let him get hit]: soren

Soren left the cave with Kite on his back and head toward the palace that Meruem was staying in, in the Anime. When he got there he saw dead bodies all over the place.

[Looks like I'm just in time, I should call Nimbus and have it hold Kite while I fight these people]: soren

After thinking Soren Called to Nimbus and had it take care of Kite, when Nimbus flew into the clouds, Soren Ran into the Palace plaza and released his unrestrained aura.

[Come out you stupid Ants]: soren

As he said this mixed with the release of his aura, 1 of the King's guards came out. It was a Red monster with 4 big arms, when the monster seen Soren he rushed him to try and kill him. Unexpectedly for the Red Any monster Soren just lifted his hand, and the red monster that was about 3 feet away from Soren was stopped in mid air.

[Wa-what is this?!?!]: red monster

[Haha! Don't worry, you will die now, so there is no need to know]: soren
