Hunter x Hunter : Germain Joins The Hunt

Bisky chuckled for a moment, then said, "It's my turn."

Everyone present, including Ging, had already experienced the soothing massageof her Nen ability, Magical Beautician Miss Cookie, so there was no need for much explanation. She finished speaking in less than a minute.

Afterward, Bisky lightly stroked her left fist with her right hand and said, "There's actually one more thing I haven't mentioned..."

"I feel like my Nen is recovering, and my strength is rebounding. In a month or two, I should be back to my former level."

"Who knows, maybe I even have a chance, like Chairman Netero, to break through my own limits at this age and reach new heights."

Bisky's words were not baseless.

In the original timeline, when Chairman Netero fought to the death against the Ant King, he recalled memories from when he was 46. At that time, he had just set the goal of performing ten thousand punches of gratitude each day.

A few years later, after intense training with the Fist of Gratitude and inner spiritual growth, he underwent a transformation.

According to Netero himself, that period was when his Nen abilities were at their peak. However, given his personality, this might have been a modest understatement to some extent.

Regardless, over 60 years had passed since then, and now at around 120 years old, Netero was still a fearsome figure across the six continents.

As Netero's disciple, Bisky had the talent to achieve breakthroughs at a similar age. After all, she had never stopped training in the Shingen-ryu school.

However, it was unlikely she would reach the same level as Chairman Netero.

Ging stroked his scruffy chin and said, "So, it's like an old tree sprouting new buds or dead wood coming back to life?"

Bisky couldn't stand being called "old," and her eyes immediately flashed with a sharp glare as she coldly said, "What's that supposed to mean? Your last words?"

"Uh..."

For the next ten minutes, the giant-sized Bisky attempted to wrestle Ging into submission, showing this thirty-something brat the fury of a fifty-something veteran.

Ging dodged left and right, holding onto his worn hat as he ran at full speed.

As he sprinted, he widened his eyes and shouted to Germain and Shizuku, "Are you just going to watch? Not going to stop her?"

Germain and Shizuku exchanged glances and both shook their heads.

Bisky was furious, and no one wanted to get caught up in her wrath.

Finally, she vented her anger by kicking Ging square in the back, sending him flying. Only after that did she calm down.

Next came a brief introduction to Shizuku's "Blinky" ability.

If Germain's Nen ability was the key to traveling to and from the Dark Continent, then Shizuku's ability was essential for their squad's logistics and securing their final rewards on that dangerous journey.

After introducing their individual Nen abilities, the four of them began a simulation battle on the plains, similar to a war game, practicing seriously to prepare for the journey in eight days.

Meanwhile, other team members outside the main four were making their own preparations.

Menchi, Buhara, Sanbica, Abengane, Dwun, and List gathered in a hall, passionately discussing how to maximize the use of Shizuku's Nen ability to transport supplies.

Menchi, with her five pigtails extending in different directions as if they had minds of their own, sat cross-legged on the floor, arms crossed, and a serious expression on her face.

"Buhara and I have created a meal plan and prepared a batch of food that will last not just 64 hours but even longer if needed."

"Both the food and Sanbica's medical supplies can be brought to the Dark Continent using Shizuku's 'Blinky.' But the problem is that 'Blinky' works on a 'first in, last out' basis, which makes accessing items difficult."

"For example, in an emergency, if they need to use an antidote, they'd first have to take out everything swallowed after it before getting to the antidote, which wastes a lot of time. If we put everything into one large container, sorted into categories, and have 'Blinky' swallow that container, then it would be easier to access. But that limits the space inside."

"This is tricky…" Menchi said, tilting her head in frustration as she closed her eyes and thought hard.

"Actually…" List, who had a boyish figure, raised his hand. "We have a way to solve this problem."

Menchi's eyes shot open, and she asked excitedly, "You have a solution?"

List glanced at Dwun, who was scratching his belly. Dwun nodded, so List began to explain in detail.

"The 'Greed Island' 'cards' are actually real treasures or nen abilities sealed inside the 'cards.'"

"We can use the same principle to seal supplies inside 'Free Cards.'"

The cards in Greed Island are mainly divided into 'Designated Cards,' 'Spell Cards,' and 'Free Cards.'

'Designated Cards' are the 100 cards required to reach the end of Greed Island.

'Spell Cards' are cards that can activate certain spell abilities.

'Free Cards' are all cards except for 'Designated Cards' and 'Spell Cards.'

List continued, "As long as we prepare special 'rings' and 'spellbooks,' Ging and the others will be able to use 'Free Cards' outside of Greed Island to easily obtain supplies."

"Additionally, some of the 'Designated Cards' and 'Spell Cards' originally from Greed Island will be very helpful for their journey, so they can bring those along too."

"However, they all have different levels of 'Vows and Limitations' or are only for display purposes. There probably won't be many cards that can be effectively used, so careful selection is needed."

"For example, the 'Designated Card: Risk Dice.'"

"As long as you roll a 'Great Fortune,' good luck will come. But if you roll a 'Great Misfortune,' it will turn the amount of good luck from previous 'Great Fortune' rolls into equal amounts of disasters and misfortune."

"Then there's the 'Designated Card: Blue Planet.' This is a unique and stunning sapphire, but it has no significance for this journey."

Dwun muttered from the side, interrupting, "It has meaning! How could it not? Since Bisky found out about the 'Blue Planet,' she's been thinking about how to get it from us every day."

"She said that if she gets the 'Blue Planet' before we leave, it will greatly enhance her body and mind, and she might even return to the peak of her nen abilities."

The group ignored Dwun's rambling and listened to List, who had not finished speaking, continue.

"There's also the 'Spell Card: Peep,' which allows you to see all the cards in someone's 'Book.' For people like Ging and Germain, though, this kind of card is useless."

"As for whether the 'Spell Card: Return' can be used in the Dark Continent to return to Greed Island, that needs to be tested on-site… But I think it's highly unlikely."

"Finally, the most important card, 'Designated Card: Breath of the Archangel,' can heal severe injuries and incurable diseases. It essentially gives Ging and Germain an extra life."

"However, because of the powerful effect of 'Breath of the Archangel,' its 'Vows and Limitations' are equally strong. That means it can only be used once per person."

"Therefore, they must use this card with caution. Once it's used on someone, it cannot be used again on the same person."

This is why, after the Chimera Ant arc, when Gon was on the brink of death due to the 'Vows and Limitations,' no one tried to use 'Breath of the Archangel' on him.

He had already used it to heal his severed arm, which had been damaged by the 'Bomb Man' Genthru during the Greed Island arc, so 'Breath of the Archangel' was no longer effective on him.
