Chapter 75

Undoubtedly, despite the Phantom Troupe's actions in Yorknew City being considered minor skirmishes by V5 and the Hunter Association, and even in terms of threat level, they are not as terrifying as a "mad chemist."

However, for the underworld alliance of this world, it is equivalent to a catastrophic blow and also a reshuffling of power.

After all, Nyon's father, Leite Noslaz, once said that the true expertise of the underworld lies not in the use of force, but in maintaining their clandestine business through threats, inducements, and intimidation.

In essence, they are merely a group of special "businessmen."

They only resort to force to resolve issues and conflicts when absolutely necessary.

Moreover, compared to those truly heinous criminals, the underworld must adhere to certain limits and rules, and dare not use truly devastating weapons such as heavy artillery, high-explosive bombs, napalm, white phosphorus incendiary bombs, and large-caliber multi-barrel Vulcan cannons. Otherwise, just by setting up a comprehensive crossfire network, not only would a mere Phantom Troupe be wiped out, but even ten of them would be annihilated.

Of course, if they did so, it would be equivalent to turning the city into a battlefield, and the next step would be a strong suppression, punishment, and extermination by V5.

Although Allen has no good feelings towards these underworld figures, he is not averse to using this opportunity to do a favor for Marcus.

After all, through the underworld channels, he can obtain some things that interest him but are not entirely legal.

"Your meaning is... on September 1st, the Phantom Troupe will attack the underground auction organized by the Ten Elders, and then trigger a war with the entire underworld alliance? In this war, the Beastmen and the Ten Elders will be eliminated by the Phantom Troupe, leading to a period of power vacuum?"

Marcus Caberi couldn't help but draw a sharp breath after hearing this.

If all of this is true, then the room for maneuver is enormous.

Especially during the time when the news of the Beastmen and the Ten Elders' deaths spreads, as long as one acts quickly, they can immediately rally a large group to support their ascension to power.

By the time other competitors react and take similar actions, he will have already firmly established himself as the actual leader of the underworld alliance through the advantage of being the first to act.

And anyone who wants to join this circle later will have to pay a certain price or submit themselves.

Allen nodded seriously: "That's right! What you need to do is to continue hosting the underground auction after the Ten Elders are dead, and quickly form an alliance to seize power. As for the Phantom Troupe, I will deal with them personally."

"You're sure? According to my knowledge, the members of the Phantom Troupe are all A-level wanted criminals, and each of them is an expert in Nen abilities."

Marcus's face showed unmasked doubt, clearly not believing that Allen could resolve the threat posed by the Phantom Troupe.

"Experts? Haha, it depends on the reference point. Compared to the Beastmen, the Phantom Troupe is undoubtedly at the top of the experts, but compared to the most elite hunters in the Hunter Association, they are merely a group of slightly troublesome bandits." Allen explained with a light laugh.

At one point, he was also greatly intimidated by the Phantom Troupe's strong appearance in Yorknew City, believing it to be a powerful Nen ability criminal organization.

But what happened later?

First, Waujin, known as "the man standing at the pinnacle of Enhancement," was toyed with by Kurapika, who had only learned Nen for less than a year. Then, the leader Kurolo was directly captured and sealed.

Although Kurapika's binding ability is naturally effective against the Troupe, it also indirectly shows that these guys are "amateurs" in some aspects, perhaps excelling in certain areas but with very obvious weaknesses.

Most importantly, all the Nen abilities of the Phantom Troupe members are no secret to Allen.

But the other side?

They don't even know who their true enemy is this time!

With the help of Zeno, the spider's limbs will be completely severed in this operation.

Marcus undoubtedly noticed Allen's nonchalant attitude when mentioning the Phantom Troupe and cautiously probed: "You seem very confident?"

"Of course! If you check my recent battle records on the Hunter website, you will understand why I am so confident. If I'm not mistaken, you seem to have hired a few Nen ability bodyguards, right? Go ask them, they will tell you the answer." Allen smiled meaningfully.

"You can tell?" Marcus was clearly surprised.

"Yes, it's not a difficult task. When I appeared, those few people were obviously very nervous, especially the tension in their eyes, clearly knowing something. In any case, seize this opportunity and work hard. I look forward to seeing you become the new leader of the underworld alliance. Also, if you have any enemies, try to get them to the auction site on the night of September 1st, and the spiders will help you eliminate them."

After saying this, Allen stood up, picked up the black explosion-proof box, and walked out.

A short while later, he left the hotel controlled by the Caberi family with Baudel.

Standing by the window, Marcus watched the two figures gradually disappear into the distance. After a minute, he turned his head and asked without looking back: "Calvin! You are a professional hunter, right?"

"Yes, Boss!" A middle-aged man with short black hair replied without hesitation.

"Do you know any information about Allen? Or what he has done recently?" Marcus continued to ask.

"Boss, although Allen is a new hunter who only obtained his license this year, he has two nicknames in the hunter circle. One is 'God's Arrow,' and the other is 'Death.' The former is the name he earned after slaughtering over a dozen floor masters in the Sky Arena. It is said that in the entire Nen ability circle, there are very few people who have the confidence to face his arrow. The latter is a title given to him by the most dangerous wanted criminals, as anyone he targets has a 100% chance of being caught and a 100% chance of dying, just like being targeted by Death."

The professional hunter named Calvin did not hide anything and frankly revealed everything he knew.

In fact, when Allen appeared on the top floor, he thought the other party was there to kill his employer, and he was extremely nervous, even preparing to run away.

"What? Are you sure this isn't a joke? As far as I know, he is only fifteen years old this year! He is just a child! If you fought him, who would win?"

Marcus widened his eyes, seemingly unable to believe what he had heard, and his expression gradually became serious.

Calvin, hearing this question, immediately replied with a bitter smile: "Boss! There is no comparison between us. The gap between Nen ability users is very large. Based on the abilities and presence he has shown, killing me might only take an instant, and I wouldn't even have the time or opportunity to react. As for age, for some people with monstrous talent, it is never an obstacle. Moreover, his ability is so special and terrifying."

"In other words, he can really take down the Phantom Troupe?" Marcus immediately grasped the key point.

"Unless something unexpected happens, there shouldn't be much of a problem. After all, several extremely dangerous A-level wanted criminals have already died at his hands. Even if he can't eliminate all of them at once, at least severely damaging them should be no problem." Calvin stroked his chin and analyzed.

"I see! It seems I really need to start planning in earnest..."
