Chapter 38

Undoubtedly, the development of Nen abilities is often closely related to the user's experiences, and can be said to be a manifestation of their innermost true self to a certain extent. However, it is also closely linked to imagination and knowledge reserves.

Unfortunately, most Nen users in the Hunter x Hunter world are illiterate or semi-literate, and they spend their time and energy on physical and mental training rather than what they consider completely useless scientific foundations and theoretical studies.

This means that when developing Nen abilities, these people are limited by their narrow horizons and cognitive constraints, preventing them from fully developing their abilities to their utmost potential.

But Allen is different!

He is a穿越者 (穿越者 means "a person who has traveled through time or space," but in this context, it can be translated as "a person from another world" or "a穿越者"), someone who has received a complete modern scientific education for over a decade and is filled with curiosity and interest in physics, chemistry, biology, and a series of natural sciences, often browsing related knowledge and news online.

In particular, the first time he entered a laboratory and completed the experiment on the three states of water under the guidance of a teacher left a deep impression on him, a memory that remains vivid to this day.

This is why, after confirming that his innate talent is in the Transmutation category, he directly focused his ability on the transformation of matter.

Similarly, when it comes to viewing Nen abilities, Allen has a perspective that is completely different from most people.

Under his guidance, Leorio's ability made rapid progress in just a few hours, allowing him to make his wheelchair move at F1 racing speeds and with the agility and quick stops of a motorcycle.

"Hehe, enjoy the last moments of your life. No matter how strong you become, you will ultimately end up as food for the red dragon."

Seeing the excitement and madness on the other person's face, Allen couldn't help but smile and shake his head, placing a piece of paper filled with content about oaths and constraints to enhance Nen abilities on the ground, and then turned to leave alone.

Now, he could finally understand a bit of Killua's desire to cultivate a powerful opponent.

However, their purposes are completely different: one is for the pure enjoyment of the thrill and excitement of battle, while the other is to become stronger through hunting.

...

Thus, the day passed quickly.

The next day, the stands of the 200th floor of the Sky Arena were still packed, with over 60% of the audience there specifically to see the final moments of the battle, when the red dragon would be summoned.

Of course, there were also some enthusiastic female fans.

After all, among the many Nen fighters on the 200th floor, there are few like Allen, who is both handsome and powerful.

Moreover, he looks young, and his fighting style is extremely graceful and cool, naturally making him more attractive to women.

"Such enthusiastic cheers! It seems you have become a star here. I wonder when I will have the qualifications to stand up there and fight an unknown enemy." Bodeo said with a very envious tone.

"Don't rush! When you can clear all three areas within the specified time, I will allow you to stand on the stage and fight one-on-one with other fighters." Allen turned and glanced at the martial artist, who was radiating a strong fighting spirit.

As a witness, he was very clear about Bodeo's current level of strength.

Perhaps he still has a significant gap compared to the ruthless members of the Phantom Troupe, but he is already much stronger than the mediocre fighters on the 200th floor.

Especially in the last two days, using the time difference in the dungeon to train, his "Emit" ability has been developing into a complete set of boxing techniques, like President Netero's "100-Type Gyo," and has already been developed to the second move.

"Understood! I will work even harder!"

Bodeo did not dwell on this issue, and he never went against Allen's decisions, placing himself in a subordinate position.

Because in his heart, he has already recognized that even his life was given by Allen, so the meaning of the rest of his life is to do his best to become a capable helper who won't hold him back.

Just as they were talking, the referee of the Sky Arena finally appeared, raising his hands to signal the fighters to step onto the stage.

On the other side, the commentator sitting in front of the microphone began to announce the detailed information and records of the two fighters to the audience.

However, none of this had anything to do with Allen, who had already focused his attention on the transformed Leorio.

In a certain sense, today's match might be the first one where he truly needs to take it a bit more seriously after learning Nen.

After all, an opponent with high-speed movement abilities is usually more troublesome.

"Thank you for the note you left! It helped me understand what Nen is and how to break through my limits and become stronger in a short time." Leorio broke the silence and spoke first.

Allen responded with a smile, "You're welcome! I'm glad you used oaths and constraints to make your Nen stronger. Now, you have finally grown into the most valuable prey I have encountered so far."

"Prey? Are you sure you still have the confidence to win after seeing my speed?" Leorio narrowed his eyes and cautiously probed.

"Of course! If a Nen user doesn't have the determination to win, they have already lost half the battle before it even starts. Besides, your ability started developing under my guidance. Do you think I wouldn't have confidence?"

As he spoke, Allen nodded to the referee.

The latter immediately understood and loudly announced the start of the match.

As the last word left his lips, Leorio instantly activated his ability, moving around the stage at a speed that the naked eye could not distinguish, while channeling his aura into a metal pipe embedded in his wheelchair, which was as thick as an arm.

The next second...

Boom!

A Nen projectile the size of an adult's head shot out from the pipe, flying at high speed toward Allen's position.

"Combining speed and ranged attacks? You've really developed a strategy that suits you well."

As Allen commented, he sidestepped to avoid the Nen projectile, letting it crash into the barrier behind him, creating a large, deep crater.

"Hmph! Thanks to your guidance! Today, I will make you taste the consequences of your own actions!" Leorio sneered as he channeled his aura into the pipes on both sides of his wheelchair.

In less than a few seconds, two Nen projectiles flew out, one from each side, effectively sealing off Allen's movement space.

Due to his strong mobility, he chose to increase the power and destructive force of the Nen projectiles by channeling his aura for a longer time, not worried about being attacked during the process.

But just as Leorio was confident that the two Nen projectiles would injure or even severely wound Allen, he suddenly saw a glint of cold light fly toward him at an incredible speed.

Fortunately, his reaction was quick enough, and he made a 90-degree turn in time.

The cold light grazed his cheek and slammed into the stone floor of the stage.

Instantly!

Bang!

The impact force created a funnel-shaped deep pit, with the outermost part as large as a basin, but narrowing as it went down, until it was only the size of a coin.
