Chapter 353 Leaving Heavens Arena

To maximize the price of the final auction item, auction houses usually start creating buzz and building momentum several months in advance.

This is a very common phenomenon.

However, such promotional activities often attract the attention of numerous criminals.

They will decide whether to make a move based on the current situation.

And the timing of their actions must be before the Yorknew City Auction starts.

Because during the auction, the Ten Dons, who oversee the Mafia World of the Six Continents and Ten Districts, will deploy elite Mafia forces from around the world, forming a formidable security force.

This barrier, which has stood for many years, is enough to deter most criminals.

However, the Phantom Troupe is one of the few criminal groups that don't need to worry about the defense capabilities of the Mafia.

But they are not the type to rely solely on brute strength. Every time they act, they carefully consider their strategy to minimize risks and difficulties.

This is the approach they have gradually developed after experiencing many setbacks since their 'debut'.

Currently, Chrollo has yet to decide whether to act.

The reason being, he has another more important task to accomplish.

The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, and only the faint breathing of the tortured man could be heard.

Chrollo gazed down at the man in silence.

"Feitan was too heavy-handed."

Suddenly, a female voice was heard from outside the door.

Pakunoda and Feitan immediately looked toward the voice, and saw a woman with long pink hair and striking blue eyes leaning against the doorframe.

The woman glanced at the blood-soaked man in front of Chrollo and said indifferently, " Before sending him to the hospital, it would be best if I sew up his wounds to prevent him from bleeding to death on the way."

"Machi, are you questioning my skills?"

Feitan, with his hands in his pockets, looked up at the woman leaning against the doorframe.

Machi gave Feitan a cold look and said expressionlessly: "If that's how you want to take it, then yes, I am questioning you."

"Heh."

Feitan took his right hand out of his pocket and squinted his eyes as he said, "In order to allow him to arrive at the hospital safely before he dies, I deliberately shortened my usual time by five minutes."

Machi stopped paying attention to Feitan and looked at Chrollo.

As long as Chrollo agreed with her suggestion, she would immediately use her ability to stop the poor guy's bleeding.

As if he noticed Machi's gaze, Chrollo finally reacted at this time, turning to look at the newly arrived Machi and nodded slightly.

Seeing that Chrollo agreed to her suggestion, Machi walked into the room without hesitation, stepping over the blood-soaked floor, and stood beside Chrollo, ready to use her ability at any moment.

"Tch."

Feitan snorted coldly upon seeing this.

Chrollo once again looked at the bloodied man, then slowly raised his right hand.

A ball of Nen appeared in his palm, then conjured into a red book with a bloody handprint on the cover.

[Specialization, Bandit's Secret]

A rare ability that can plunder the abilities of others and use them for one's own benefit.

And once an ability is stolen, the Nen user will be unable to use their developed ability, provided it occupies Nen capacity.

This clearly shows what kind of person Chrollo is.

…

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Moses originally planned to have some matches with other Floor Masters at Heavens Arena while teaching Kastro.

Regrettably--

The other Floor Masters in the Heavens Arena did not want to fight with him, and during this period, no player with ten wins came to challenge him, the new Floor Master.

Left with no choice, Moses focused on his daily training and teaching Kastro about Nen.

After a month of intensive training, Kastro not only mastered the four basic principles, but also learned the skills necessary for Nen-based combat, as well as the initial stage of In and Shu.

As for developing a Nen ability, Moses guided Kastro to develop the Enhancer Ability [Tiger Bite Fist] according to the memory of the original work.

On this foundation, Moses provided Kastro with a new idea.

That is, to increase the diversity of [Tiger Bite Fist] based on the principles of Emission.

For instance, releasing the force of [Tiger Bite Fist] from a distance to create short-range or mid-range attacks.

"If you master this branch ability, remember not to use it casually. Treat it as a trump card for use only when absolutely necessary."

While imparting this idea to Kastro, Moses also gave him a word of caution.

After all, the ultimate goal of diversifying abilities is to serve as tactics.

As an Enhancer ability, Tiger Bite Fist has no in terms of attack power, but it is fundamentally a straightforward offensive ability, which Moses feels lacks versatility.

Thus, the idea of extending the attack range of the Tiger Bite Fist was born.

Moses's suggestion to Kastro was: In combat, continuously use the Tiger Bite Fist to attack. Then, when the opponent has grown accustomed to its range, suddenly extend the attack distance to catch them off guard and land a decisive blow.

After hearing Moses' suggestion and ideas...

Kastro's reaction: (⊙ˍ⊙)

The reaction of Menchi next to them: (ㅍ_ㅍ)

…

On this day, the agreed-upon deadline had arrived, and Moses and Menchi prepared to leave Heavens Arena.

During this trip to Heaven's Arena, Moses validated the effectiveness of [All Extinct] in actual combat, got some benefits from Hisoka, and finally taught Kastro the basics of Nen.

'It was quite a productive visit.'

'However, the greatest gain turned out to be fame...'

Today, Moses had now completely replaced Hisoka and became the most popular fighter in Heavens Arena and even the entire city.

Many combat-obsessed fans were extremely eager to see Moses step into the arena again to deliver more thrilling matches.

However, neither the other Floor Masters nor the newly minted ten-win fighters wanted to face Moses.

As a result, the audience didn't get to see Moses in the ring for an entire month, leaving them deeply disappointed.

However, even though Moses hadn't fought for a whole month, his fame didn't diminish but rather increased.

Because the situation where no one challenges him just shows how powerful Moses is.

"Let's go."

After saying goodbye to Kastro, Moses and Menchi boarded a taxi heading to the airport.

Kastro stood by the roadside, watching the taxi disappear into the distance.

After a month of interaction, Kastro had come to regard Moses as his master.

However, since Moses hadn't explicitly accepted him as a disciple, he did not dare to rashly call Moses 'Master'.

It wasn't until the moment of parting that Kastro dared to whisper to himself, "Master, have a safe journey." while watching the taxi go away.
