Chapter 28 : I want to be the protagonist

After starting anhancement training, James came up with the idea of creating a third hatsu.

His EDA hatsu was an assistant type hatsu, his hatsu six program was a distance offensive type hatsu, so he developed a new hatsu based on hand-to-hand combat.

During the fight against Kimblee and the alchemists of Amestris, he had such a perfect mastery of alchemy thanks to his philosopher's stone that he could control his shock waves by compressing them in a precise zone.

This allowed him in particular to create more powerful ranged attacks, during his fight against Feitan he had created a new type of attack by compressing his explosions in his nen before releasing it towards his enemy.

Thinking about this during his Enhancement training, he came up with the idea of creating a hatsu that could unleash its explosions in close combat by mimicking his compressed shock wave ball attack that he named Bubble Busrt.

Bubble Burst was an extremely powerful attack, his fight against Feitan had already proved it, but during his confrontation with Hisoka, he realized that he had underestimated the terror of nen too much.

Hisoka had almost no chance against him, although Hisoka seemed to have the advantage, James knew that he would win in the end because his physical stamina, senses and pure physical strength far exceeded Hisoka's, his only defect was his mastery of the nen and his aura reserve.

He had used his Buble Burst at the best moment of the fight.

Hisoka was not only weakened by their fighting, but he was also launching an attack, adding to this the effect of surprise, James should have killed him.

But at the brink of death, Hisoka's will to fight and kill materialized through his aura, in a condition similar to death, Hisoka managed to kill him.

He understood that he had really underestimated the potential of nen, so he tried to merge his nen and achimie, to create a new hatsu.

To be able to do this, he drew on the back of his left hand the circle of the right hand and on the back of his right hand the circle of the left hand.

This allowed him to trigger the transmutation without joining the palms of his hands, but this had two flaws.

First, putting two opposite alchemical circles (water, life, soul and fire, death, soul) on the same hand created a disturbance in the alchemical circle, because of this he was no longer protected from his own alchemical attacks.

During his first attempt at activation, he fortunately considerably weakened the shock wave produced and protected himself with his aura, otherwise he would have lost his arm.

Then his explosion was weakened because of the difficulty of simultaneity between the enhancement and the transformation of its aura into fire and wind.

(If you remember, he creates sparks and air or oxygen with his nen to enhance his transmutation speed).

Used enhancement and double transmutation of nen was extremely difficult; he took him more than two weeks to get an acceptable result; even then, his transmutation speed was very slow.

Three seconds.

In close combat this would have given any powerful opponent to kill a dozen times.

Finally, after three more weeks of training, he was able to reduce the time required for transmutation to 2.5 seconds, and after a week of testing and training in Enhancement, he created Shock wave blow.

This new hatsu was a simple punch based on Senmaigawara Seiken, releasing shock waves through the opponent's body.

During the use of this hatsu James would strengthen his fists to the maximum with his nen and activate the circles on his hands to create a deadly attack that not only wounds the opponent's flesh but also destroys his internal organs and bones.

It was a simply murderous blow, whose sole purpose was to destroy the enemy's body, but the most terrifying was the fact that James was able to send an almost infinite amount of shockwave through the body of his enemie, as long as he had enough aura.

When he hit the ball, he had sent two successive shock waves, hence the use of the term "two layers"; nowadays, with his mastery of his hatsu, his perfection and his strength, he could not exceed four layers of shock wave at the risk of destroying his fist, and each layer of shock wave consumed about 5250 units of aura.

James, looking at his hands lost in thought, finally sighed before looking at the playground with a lazy expression.

"They really don't stand a chance against Razor unless Biscuit shows her true female Rambo form."

He watched the confrontation between Gon, Killua, Biscuit and Razor for several minutes before looking at Razor with a speechless expression.

"Shameless!"

James suddenly felt like beating Razor to death.

He quickly noticed that although Razor seemed to be playing seriously against Gon and his group, he was holding back a lot, sometimes making mistakes on purpose or voluntarily diminished the power of his attacks, which had not escaped the notice of James and Biscuit, only Gon and Killua as well as Goreinu who came back without the game had not noticed this.

Why was Gon entitled to such preferential treatment?

James understood for the first time how powerful the aura of the protagonist was.

Finally, after many twists and turns that left James speechless, Razor, who was at least three times stronger than Gon's group, lost in a sport he had played every day for thirteen years.

James really wanted to scream at that very moment :

"I want to be the protagonist!"
