Chapter 101 : Adult Gon!

The scent of despair, thick and harsh, permeated through the screen. Orochimaru's hoarse laughter echoed in the air.

Uchiha Obito, concealed behind a mask, lowered his head silently, concealing the pain in his eyes.

Once, he too had been deceived, subjected to this kind of earthly hell. And he had inflicted such torment upon others!

Hence, the Infinite Tsukuyomi represented the true future. Without it, this world would only continue its cycle of reincarnation.

Redemption was still possible.

Or, perhaps, escape.

As the spell settled back into the world, Madara smiled contentedly:

"To deceive without hesitation and apologize without sincerity is to be no more than an animal; it is, after all, inhuman."

Pitou cast a perplexed glance at Gon, unsure of what troubled this man. The emotions seemed as though someone had seized control of his being.

[Gon slumped to the ground, tears streaming from vacant eyes!]

["Sure enough, I killed Kite...")

["Kite is dead."]

["Kite is dead..."] 

[He repeated the words incessantly, memories of Kite flooding his mind.]

["Whoever kills Kite, it's all my fault."]

["No! No! No!]

["It's me, it's me who killed him!"]

The hearts of countless viewers tightened, witnessing firsthand how a person descended into a pit of despair.

And it was Gon himself who had pushed him there!

The flame of self-blame relentlessly consumed the young man's soul!

On the other side, Pitou summoned Doctor Blythe to mend her wounds.

[Gon raised his head, staring blankly at Pitou, his thoughts in disarray.]

[Instinctively, he asked through tear-filled eyes: "Wouldn't you rather save Kite first?"]

"Why don't you save Kite and heal yourself instead?"

Pitou, with her arms returned to normal, displayed no emotion in her eyes. She spoke casually, as if discussing something trivial:

"Of course, I will kill you."

"For the king, I would eliminate all threats."

In the One Piece World, Luffy jumped in frustration. Just moments ago, he sympathized deeply with Pitou, believing Gon to be the villain.

Little did he expect to be slapped in the face when the tables turned!

"Ah, bad cat, cat!!"

["Kill me? Why not help treat Kite?"]

At this moment, Gon's mind seemed incapable of further thought.

"Sure enough, why don't you help me treat Kite?...")

[Gon lowered his head, softly uttering words of despair:]

["Fraud."] 

[In the darkness, a crimson "resentment" emerged, radiating from Gon's being.]

Gon rose slowly, his body enveloped in a mixture of red resentment and dark thoughts!

An unexplained gust of wind swept in from outside at that moment.

The candle was extinguished by the strong wind. Pitou trembled, her sixth sense sounding the alarm!

Gon's unfocused pupils were entirely consumed by darkness, as if he were condemning himself:

"It doesn't matter if you die like this."

*Boom!*

A violent airflow manifested, causing Pitou to instinctively take a step back.

The air seemed darker than ink, rising from Gon's head, and at that moment, Gon's body transformed, resembling that of an adult.

"No, it should be said that Gon has become his future self at this moment."

"Do constraints and oaths shape the future?"

In the HxH world, Ging frowned for the first time. Despite claiming not to care about his son, he was visibly upset now. The price paid for such power only led to one outcome—death.

Observing Gon shrouded in an ominous aura, Pitou's forehead glistened with sweat. The pressure he exerted felt regal.

On the opposite side, Gon slowly opened his eyes, and his long black hair defied gravity as it fluttered upward.

He gazed at Pitou like a malevolent ghost.

*A hellish roar echoes:*

"I'm going to kill you, Pitou!"

*Terpsichora!*

The demon, the puppet master, appeared, threads connecting to Pitou!

"Controlled by the doll, you will gain power and speed beyond the limit!"

"It's a dance beyond the limit!"

In the next moment, blue veins burst from Pitou's muscles. She formed her four fingers into a deadly point and, like a blur, stabbed towards Gon.

"So fast!" The president, astonished by Pitou's strength, was taken aback.

But the next second...

*Hoo~ as if the breeze blows!*

Pitou stabbed the air, Gon completely disappearing from her sight.

Observing the empty room, Pitou assumed Gon had gone to find the Ant King and rushed out anxiously.

However, Gon awaited her quietly outside. When she emerged, he spoke softly:

"Come with me. I don't want to spoil this place."

Afraid he might go to the Ant King, Pitou chose to follow.

Silence fell in the forest. The wind blew, and the moon hid behind dark clouds.

In this moment of darkness, Pitou's pupils shrank to mere slits as she launched a sudden attack on Gon.

Countless viewers were shocked. This Pitou seemed truly evil!

However, the human sense of right and wrong might not apply to beasts.

Begging for mercy, deceit, sneak attacks—maybe none of it mattered to Pitou.

Silent and lightning-fast, viewers envisioned the scene of Gon's blood splattering.

But in the next second, Gon, as if prophetic, dodged the attack, then kicked Pitou in the stomach.

*BOOM!*

Pitou bent into a prawn shape, vomiting blood, soaring into the sky like a cannonball.

Gon didn't look up; instead, he bent down, emitting golden light.

His body began to swell; muscles bulged, and dazzling energy gathered on his right fist.

*Rock!*

A sun-like round appeared on Gon's fist. As Pitou descended, it collided with her face.

Blue blood sprayed, and Pitou flew like a ragdoll.

A straight line appeared in the forest; rocks and trees along the way shattered.

Pitou had passed out, her face bloody.

Yet, Gon didn't cease; he relentlessly punched Pitou's head.

*"Paper, scissors."*

The golden light reappeared. Gon's eyes were hollow as he descended again without hesitation.

**BOOM!**

The earth trembled, and Pitou lay motionless.

"After driving someone crazy, she sent herself to hell."

Off-screen, Gon's eyes were red!

He eagerly anticipated the day he could deliver a punch like that and shatter his opponent's head!

Beside him, Killua was filled with worry.

(…)

"Killua, who rushed at the fastest speed, Gon turned his head."

"Tears kept streaming from those lifeless eyes!"

"And in that moment, even after Pitou's death, her Nen released her ability, controlling her corpse to attack Gon from behind!"

"Fortunately, Killua pushed Gon away at the critical moment, and Gon only lost one arm. However, the next second brought a sentence that distressed Killua."

"It doesn't hurt at all, and it's finally what Kite looked like before he died."

Off-screen, Killua instantly understood that Gon deliberately didn't dodge, as if seeking atonement, just like when Kite had his arm cut off by Pitou.

"Pitou's corpse, still under her Nen ability control, continued attacking. But in the next second, Gon punched her!"

"Then, Gon suddenly jumped, grabbed his severed arm, fell like a meteor, and pierced through Pitou's body with it, pinning her to the ground!"

"The right arm is yours."

"IRock!"

Although Gon lacked his right fist, his severed limb's wound still condensed with golden energy, carrying a blood-like resentment.

The air trembled, and the qi in the surrounding atmosphere, condensed by the guessing box, became as massive as a millstone, with the golden core wrapped in resentment like lightning.

In it, even more frightening fluctuations emerged.

Killua's eyes trembled, unable to accept it in his heart, because Gon once again overdrew his life.

"Paper, scissors." With Gon's painful whispers, the guessing box swelled again, as if a sun had appeared.

At this moment, even the president's expression changed, exuding an aura that could completely obliterate him.

The wind howled, and in the fiery air, Gon slowly turned his head to look at Killua.

The once empty eyes now held a hint of color.

It was an apology to Killua, and relief.

At that moment, Killua finally realized that Gon didn't want to live at all.

The next second, an earth-shattering explosion occurred.

The blazing sun expanded completely, the ground tore apart, mud turned into huge waves, and the entire night sky was illuminated in an instant.
