Apparition of Vlad Dracula

At the end of this fight, Netero remained completely unharmed, although exhausted. The King was badly hurt and could not move anymore.

This fight lasted 27 minutes, which at this level is exceptionally long, but this confrontation could only be qualified as one-sided.

Netero was in total control of this fight, the King had adapted during this one, however although knowing when, or and how to strike, the King was too slow ; Netero was too monstrous, his movements of incomparable beauty for any fighter, fast yes fast they were...

The only advantage Meruem possessed during this battle was the absurdly robust body he inherited.

But Netero, without using the 99th palm consisting of an uninterrupted avalanche of slamming all the previous 98 palms, as well as his ultimate blow, Zero Hand, finally triumphed.

"For me, for humanity or for the Dark Continent, you are weak." After being defeated Meruem was not angry or sad but heard that phrase repeated over and over in his mind.

Meruem admitted defeat in his heart.

"Truly a magnificent fight, I can't think of any other words." Suddenly a deep and deep voice was heard with its, some applause.

Netero thought, turning around : 'The Guards ?'.

But finally face to face with the interlocutor, Netero smiles, feeling deeply lucky. He brought his hands up to his chest level just like the way people pray, his Hatsu reappeared, and he attacked the man.

"What have I told you already? Don't pull that thing out if you don't want to die. That new-found youth has made you very arrogant."

At the same time three hands hit the man, Alucard, from 3 different angles, the man turned into a mist and the three fists hit each other.

'Um you think you're invincible with that ability eh?' Netero chuckled in his mind then attacked the still mist again in the same way, but those golden hands covered by Shu.

Skotadi didn't have time to react because Netero only applied Shu almost at the moment of impact.

By applying Nen to Kannon's palms, Netero successfully struck Skotadi, indeed, although powerful and possessing an extraordinary capacity for deduction, Netero had in fact learned this from his old friend Zigg Zoldyck who had himself learned it from his father Maha who learned it from his best friend Don Freecs thanks to Ai, a gaseous life form.

'This old man shows his experience, I have to dodge every hit, my reaction time is not enough to dodge once I see his Shu, moreover I don't know how developed his In is, he better do everything, and slowly gain my first combat experience.'

Then Netero felt Alucard release his aura, he didn't have time to marvel at its quality, quantity or malevolence, since this aura formed an En around the vampire as well as an armor of Nen via the use of Ken.

His En's was diameter of only 3 meters in a perfect sphere, the movements of the worms were crystal clear, but Netero did not despise this man, because he had already known an advanced application of En which compressed this one in order to feel more things.

'Using Ken from the start I can infer that he is confident in his aura volume or that he can regenerate it quickly.' Netero analyzed in an instant.

Skotadi gestured with both hands as Netero chose to interrupt him.

"Palm of Twelve"

'Tch I should have prepared clones in advance, using signs in combat is a mistake if your opponents don't have to use them, what's funny is that Netero actually has to pray between each "Hand" "but he did it 10 000 times a day for ten years, then it wouldn't surprise me that he continued this ritual which only took him a few seconds after this training.

As Meruem said it cannot be analyzed with logic...'

Skotadi still managed to create 1 500 clones by dodging Netero's attack from the air, surprising him with his ability to fly; then all these clones deployed an En of 3 meters, although the clones are less powerful than the original their understanding of Nen is identical, and 200 clones loaded not Netero but indeed Kannon in order to test this Hatsu, is could the statue be dispelled by hitting it in a certain place ? Can it move other than by dissipating it and reactivating it ?

Another clone activated "Pay to Win", during the 3 seconds of opening the app, 1 single clone disappeared, each of them still had a strength comparable to Pitou. Then a crystal flute appeared, the clone gave it to another clone who started throwing Nen tentacles at Netero,

who dodged these attacks without dispelling "Hyakushiki Kannon", the statue remained behind Netero's back and still beat up the clones who were starting to die one by one. The clone dealing with "Pay to Win" made a pocket watch appear which was grabbed by the real Skotadi,

and used another perk that made all the clones as well as the original much more resilient, at this time this clone stopped, it is necessary to measure well and not to be attracted by all these impressive advantages because if too little aura remains, the power of advanced Nen techniques will decrease a lot.

The 1 299 remaining clones immediately replaced the clones dissipated by Netero while Skotadi flew to Netero while on a button of the watch, which did not like the flute immediately.

As soon as Netero was attacked, he concentrated mainly on Alucard, who was much more difficult to deal with than Meruem, so the clones had more maneuvering to beat the statue.

'I see, I was right this man is very dangerous, the abilities they just used are very discreet if you don't pay attention to them, the watch that the man used increased my fatigue or rather tired me more quickly, physically, mentally as well as accelerates my consumption of Nen around 1.3 times faster.

These tentacles of Nen which increase in number according to the melody played by this other are very annoying to him, I don't know its effects but I don't want to experience it, well, I am too passive although its aura has diminished this was not regular,

it decreased when this clone conjured this watch, the flute as well as when these clones took longer to destroy, this guy regenerates his aura at an inhuman rate, either this is due to a Hatsu in hiding or this guy is not human, which would fit well with what he told me when I asked him his name.'

"99th Hand"
