Chapter 45 (2nd Bonus Chapter for the day, due to reaching 300 members on Discord...)
Title: Perfect Plan...
….
Meruem stopped Jax mid track, and he looks at him and says. "I don't have a lot of time. So I will have to go and meet her one last time. Sorry but sadly you can't fight me anymore. But I must thank you… I am sorry but I do not know your name."
As Meruem says that, Jax just sighs at this.
'I guess I should give it my all too. But… I will have to make him move past his limits, THAT will give me the best benefits.' As Jax thinks that, he simply summons a box and opens it. He puts his hand inside the box and says to Meruem.
"Did you know that there is a way to gain unimaginable power by making the ultimate condition. I bet that someone like you will reach quite far if he does so."
Meruem seems to think of something when Jax says this.
"So… what are you getting at." Says Meruem, a little confused by what Jax means to do next.
Jax just gives him a malicious smile, it brings chills as it reminds him of a certain crazy old man. "Meruem… never underestimate the evil hidden inside a human's heart."
As Jax says that he pulls something out of the box… it is the head of Komugi, who had turned blue and even smelled a little. Meruem just looked at it in shock.
"W -What have you done." Says Meruem, completely in shock. His mind comes to a halt as he contemplates the reality in front of him.
But Jax just smiles maliciously at Meruem's expression.
"Well now… that is quite hypocritical of you. Didn't you kill people before this too. So please now, use that rage and give up everything. Sacrifice EVERYTHING that is the only way that you can avenge Komugi." Says Jax, as he clutches Komugi dead head.
Meruem looks at this as tears come out of his eyes.
"N -No…" Is all that he can say before….
*burst*
Komugi's head bursts like a watermelon.
"Man… that face really suits a bug like you." Says Jax with a nonchalant expression on his face. "After all, bugs shouldn't act so high and mighty, they should begg to us humans, not to squash them like the bugs they are."
Immediately the King's EN overflows all around like a flash of light. It can even be compared to the speed of light as it envelops all around the place.
Jax can't even change his expression and all he can see is a dark shadow approaching him. But his Nen moves faster.
Jax who is a Manipulator has the 1% chance of developing a specialist ability. Obviously someone like him already developed his Specialist Ability… it is called…
[PERFECT PLAN]
Suddenly a slit appeared on Jax's head, the eye was red and it had a brown clock instead of a pupil.
And at that moment Meruem noticed something strange, his speed which some might call as something that is comparable to the speed of light. And as he immediately went for Jax's head planning to kill him instantly… but suddenly, in an impossible scenario somehow, Jax's head tilted to the side… easily dodging Meruem's attack.
'What… he can't see me due to my speed… how is that even possible?' Thinks Meruem, contemplating this as he decides to attack with a light fast kick but…
*fwosh*
Suddenly… the king noticed something strange, Jax just staring blankly in front of him, his eyes not following Meruem's movements at all. But Jax's body still moved to dodge his kick.
'What is happening.' Thinks Meruem as he sees the strange situation in front of him. Before, when he went to his full speed in their first exchange, for only a split second Jax lost an arm. But now he seems to be able to dodge the attacks perfectly.
'Is it some programmed response on action prediction.' Thinks Meruem, trying to figure out this new ability that Jax is using. 'How is he doing it…'
Meruem uses the ability that he got from Youpi to be able to change his physical body. So he uses this to turn his hands and feet and hands into claws. His wings also gain steel like feathers. But Meruem is not finished as his exoskeleton turns into a metallic like colour.
His leg muscles expand and...
*fwosh*
He immediately appears before Jax again, using his tail to try a sneak attack, but as Meruem expected Jax dodged by jumping back slightly.
Meruem looks at this with cold eyes. 'I have your ability figured out now.'
Suddenly out of his chest another hand appears and…
*baam*
It hits Jax in the chest…
But to Meruem, even though they are moving at speeds way above sound he swears that he heard Jax simply say. "Bad move little ant."
As Jax 'says' this, Meruem's hand who hit him… is stuck in a pink like thing as soon as it touches Jax's abdomen. Jax uses KO and concentrates all of his Nen in there to protect him from the devastating blow that would have most likely pierced right through him if it wasn't for Jax using KO.
[BUNGEE GUM]
Slowly the small pink patch of Nen suddenly transforms into a Bungee Gum Ball that completely encompasses Meruem.
The Ant King immediately tries to punch his way out of this. But due to Bungee Gum having the properties of both rubber and gum, it isn't easy to break through this type of Transmuted Nen.
Meruem punches one side of the ball, and like rubber it extends due to the force applied and…
*WHASH*
It returns the attack back to Meruem, who already attacked hundreds of times in that split second… a drop of blood comes out of Meruem's mouth… signifying that he was hurt by something like this.
'Due to me being a natural Manipulator, I only have 40% Mastery in Transmutation, but with my Aura Ammount being so much higher than Hisoka's, it has made the ability way stronger than Hisoka, it is at a level he is unlikely to ever reach.' Thinks Jax, finally able to get a breather, he never even saw Meruem move in any way. He was only able to survive due to his ability PERFECT PLAN.
Jax can finally smile a little, he was able to finally out think Meruem.

AUTHOR NOTE:
We see that the MC turned the tables on Meruem, using his high Talent Stat that allows him to copy (more kinda recreate) the Hatsu that he knows their inside workings of and conditions. He is the highest talent of Nen at level 12... (and anything else really)
P.P.S: The paragraph below will show how PERFECT PLAN works and the conditions to activate. It has quite a bit of conditions, I mean even though Jax has a lot of Nen, due to the ability being so OP it still has a LOT of conditions to fulfill.
HATSU:
PERFECT PLAN: (a third eye appears in Jax's forehead, it is a red eye with a born clock inside the pupil) Can see up to one hour into the absolute perfect future for Jax.
(1) Can only be used when Jax has taken substantial damage by someone.
(2) Can only be used once a month, and can only view only one hour into the perfect future.
(3) Jax can strengthen the ability to last the full day (see the perfect way for the 24 hour day) if he tells the one that has injured him in the last 24 hours about the ability of Perfect Plan.
(4) The conditions need to all be completed in 24 hours for the 2nd part of the ability to activate.
