“Begin!”
Under the gaze of the entire crowd, the match began.
Killua and the others hoped Ron would win. Most of the audience looked forward to an exciting fight. And the Floor Masters wanted to use this opportunity to observe Ron and Hisoka’s strength.
Once the referee stepped out of the arena, Hisoka pulled out a deck of cards and began shuffling at high speed, dazzling to the eye. This was Hisoka’s style. That was why he was called the Magician. Even with Ron as his opponent, he remained the same.
Ron did not pay attention to what strategy Hisoka planned to use. Instead, with a thought, a figure appeared at Ron’s side.
“Natsu!”
In the next moment, Natsu charged at Hisoka. Flames burned from his body out of thin air.
“Fire Dragon’s Horn!”
Hisoka narrowed his eyes as he looked at Natsu. “Compared to last time, he seems stronger again!”
Hisoka flicked his wrist. A card flew toward Natsu, spinning at high speed. But the moment it neared Natsu—bang! A burst of flame exploded, knocking the card aside.
Natsu closed the distance to Hisoka. At the same time, Ron drew the Six-Harmony Sphere from his waist. Gripping it in one hand, he poured a large amount of aura into it before transferring it to his other hand. But in the hand he had just used, a fireball formed from condensed flames remained. Ron looked toward Hisoka and hurled the fireball forcefully.
With Natsu tying him down, dodging was not so easy for Hisoka.
Bang!
The fireball struck and exploded, scattering flames in all directions. Hisoka reappeared, but his clothes now clearly showed scorch marks.
Hisoka narrowed his eyes at Ron. He did not feel fear. Instead, he became even more excited!
Relying solely on Natsu to defeat Hisoka was unlikely. However, Natsu’s role was to keep Hisoka occupied—that alone was enough. Under these conditions, Ron could test the Six-Harmony Sphere without concern.
Indeed.
To Hisoka, this was a long-awaited battle. To Ron, it was merely a test of his Nen tool. If Ron truly wanted to kill Hisoka, he would not need to go to such trouble.
If both Natsu and Uchiha Sasuke attacked at once, Hisoka would definitely be suppressed. Adding in the effect of the Rotten Life Blade, Hisoka’s condition would only worsen over time. Killer Queen and Akame finding the right moment to attack would not be difficult.
Given the abilities of Killer Queen and Akame, as long as they landed a hit, Hisoka’s defeat—and death—would basically be assured.
“Again!” Hisoka licked his lips.
Ron transferred the Six-Harmony Sphere back to his original hand. His now-free hand produced a different Nen bullet.
“Lightning!”
A thunderball shot toward Hisoka. Compared to the fireball, the thunderball was much faster. In the blink of an eye, it reached Hisoka and exploded. The entire area was engulfed in electricity.
Hisoka’s movements paused briefly. Natsu was also affected to some extent.
The Six-Harmony Sphere’s attacks were indiscriminate. This difference between the real world and games became apparent. In the real world, shooting a teammate could kill them. In most games, a bullet would pass through allies and only hit enemies.
Before Hisoka could react, Ron launched another Nen bullet.
“Storm!”
When the storm Nen bullet struck Hisoka, it instantly split into countless parts, like sharp blades constantly cutting around him.
Hisoka willed his aura outward to cover his body. But he could not fully negate the damage from the wind blades. Soon, small wounds appeared on his body, and his clothes became even more tattered.
As the storm faded, Hisoka’s figure flashed, dodging Natsu’s attack and moving toward Ron. Natsu turned to chase.
Suddenly, a floor tile sprang up under Hisoka’s Bungee Gum. One end was attached to the arena floor tile, the other to another piece of flooring.
While moving earlier, Hisoka had not been idle—he had set a trap.
The Bungee Gum between the two tiles snapped tight, flinging them toward Natsu.
Natsu punched one of the tiles—bang! It shattered instantly. But the move bought Hisoka a moment to close the distance to Ron.
At that moment, another Nen bullet appeared in Ron’s hand.
“Frost!”
The frost Nen bullet landed, and the surrounding air temperature dropped sharply. Frost formed on Hisoka’s body, clearly restricting his movements.
Natsu caught up. His body was covered with fragments of floor tiles, some embedded into him, greatly hindering his movement. Hisoka’s Bungee Gum had both adhesive and elastic properties and was extremely tough.
However, under Natsu’s flames, it would slowly melt away.
Another Nen bullet formed in Ron’s hand—a type he had never used before.
Compared to the previous Nen bullets, this one seemed much calmer. But beneath its calm surface hid great violence.
“Explosion!”
The Nen bullet struck, unleashing a powerful shockwave in all directions. Hisoka was blasted backward, retreating step after step until he stopped dozens of paces away. If the Floor Master challenge arena were not large enough, Hisoka would likely have been blown off the platform.
Blood trickled from Hisoka’s forehead where a wound had appeared. It was not large, but it seemed to have hit a blood vessel, causing considerable bleeding. Hisoka wiped his forehead and pushed his hair back, instantly creating a slicked-back red hairstyle stained with blood.
At the wound, Hisoka used Bungee Gum to temporarily seal the ruptured blood vessel.
“Corrosion!”
The sixth Nen bullet from the Six-Harmony Sphere.
As it landed, it burst into a mist-like substance. It resembled Lampent’s Smog but was less dense, offering little obstruction to vision. However, in terms of corrosiveness, it was much stronger.
Hisoka had to use more aura to defend himself.
Natsu charged at Hisoka again. Hisoka suddenly grinned.
