Chapter 94: Can Moyu Remove Nen? (Dedicated to the Little Cookie Alliance Leader of the Big Tiger Family)

When they first arrived at the restaurant, Toran made a grand welcome for Liz and Moyu.

All the subordinates, including the four bodyguards, were lined up behind Toran.

This allowed Moyu to confirm the number of marsh people present.

Excluding the eight marsh people gang members, even Toran, the gang leader, and the four bodyguards with good physical qualities had been replaced by marsh people.

Moyu was greatly surprised at the time and secretly warned himself.

Therefore, after entering the restaurant, he used the excuse of going to the bathroom to first warn Liz, and then used his ability in the bathroom to let the shadow clone take his place, preparing for any unexpected needs.

What he did not expect at all was...

Ilmi came.

Based on Moyu's understanding of the Zoldyck family, it was easy to deduce that Ilmi had likely accepted a commission to assassinate Toran.

Well-established gang families are usually very wealthy, and it is not uncommon for them to secretly hire expensive assassins due to competition.

Moyu was well aware of the Zoldyck family's background and their terrifying nature, so his first reaction upon seeing the needle man was to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible with Liz.

However, the shadow clone did not have the ability to speak and could not promptly inform Liz, causing them to miss the opportunity to leave after a few seconds of delay.

Seeing this, Moyu could only decisively change his strategy and start planning to deal with the threat from Ilmi.

In the end, he easily defeated Ilmi with just one punch, which was clearly the best outcome.

The fact that the perception gave him two rewards in one go was an unexpected pleasure for Moyu.

Now, this group of gang members rushing in from outside was also unexpected for Moyu.

They were all marsh people.

"There were only eight before..."

Before Moyu could think more, the angry gang members suddenly raised their weapons, ready to avenge Toran.

Without any hesitation, Moyu immediately had the shadow clone take action.

The gang members, with red eyes, aimed at the shadow clone and pulled the triggers.

Bang, bang, bang...!

For a moment, the restaurant was filled with the flashing of gunfire and the deafening sound of gunshots.

Liz, who had been persuaded to the side by Moyu, stepped back from the firefight with a puzzled look.

Under her watchful eye, the shadow clone charged into the crowd, like a tiger among sheep, quickly eliminating all the gang members.

Next,

The bodies of the gang members lying on the ground, like Toran before, instantly turned into clumps of black, sticky substances, which then adhered to Moyu and disappeared.

"Is that... Nen?"

This time, Liz saw it clearly.

The black, sticky substances that the bodies turned into indeed carried a faint trace of Nen.

"Can Moyu remove Nen?"

Seeing the black, sticky substances carrying a faint trace of Nen being instantly absorbed by Moyu's body, although she did not understand the reason for the transformation of the bodies, Liz could only speculate in this direction.

Moyu leaned in the shadows, silently enduring the swelling pain from various parts of his body.

When the shadow clone absorbed those black, sticky substances, it immediately showed signs of expanding and swelling.

Fortunately, Moyu was mentally prepared and promptly compressed the volume, preventing the shadow clone from swelling into a fat person on the spot.

In return, the pain from the forced compression was directly fed back to Moyu.

However, compared to the pain endurance training he did every day, this level of swelling pain was nothing.

"Sure enough, the things left behind by the marsh people after death, which are similar to marsh mud, can increase the volume of the shadow..."

By absorbing the remnants of nearly sixty marsh people, Moyu could clearly feel that the volume of the shadow had at least doubled.

In other words, by compressing the volume to maintain the original size of the shadow clone, the "hardness" would be roughly doubled.

Moyu felt that if it were the current shadow clone, it should be able to knock out Ilmi, who had not yet fully constructed his Nen defense, with one punch.

This was the difference before and after absorption.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, Moyu endured the swelling pain and controlled the shadow clone to absorb the four severely injured and dying bodyguards on the ground.

After doing this, Moyu immediately had the shadow clone come to find him.

"Moyu?"

Liz was still pondering whether Moyu knew how to remove Nen when she saw the shadow clone run silently into the depths of the restaurant.

Liz still did not know that the Moyu in front of her was actually the shadow clone.

Without thinking much, she followed.

Before Liz arrived, Moyu quickly retracted the shadow clone and walked out from the corner, speaking the first words of the night.

"Liz-nee."

"What are you doing?"

Liz looked puzzled.

Moyu, somewhat embarrassed, said, "I might have eaten too much tonight, and my stomach was a bit painful, so I wanted to go to the bathroom, but it's not painful anymore."

He had come from the direction of the bathroom, so this excuse was not problematic.

"..."

Hearing Moyu's explanation, Liz did not know what to say.

A moment ago, she had seen Moyu swiftly deal with the gang members, and the next moment, she saw him running over here, apparently because of a stomachache.

Although she understood the urgency of human needs, it still felt strange to see it firsthand.

Liz shook her head slightly, not wanting to dwell on meaningless things.

"Moyu, you..."

She still had many questions and wanted answers from Moyu.

However, before she could speak, Moyu interrupted her.

"Liz-nee, can you help me delete the surveillance camera data in the restaurant?"

Moyu retracted the shadow clone outside the range of the surveillance cameras.

But the shadow clone's actions in the restaurant, such as absorbing the black, sticky substances, repelling Ilmi, and killing the gang members, were inevitably captured by the surveillance cameras.

If possible, Moyu did not want to be exposed.

However, given the major incident involving over a hundred casualties, it was not easy for him to stay out of it once he was involved.

The only thing he could think of was to seek Liz's help.

Although he was only asking Liz to delete the surveillance camera data, it also indicated to her that he did not want to be involved in the subsequent troubles because of this incident.

Liz saw this and hesitated for a moment.

"I'll handle the rest."

Thinking of Kido's instructions, Liz ultimately agreed to Moyu's request.

Seeing Liz agree, Moyu slightly relaxed and then fainted with relief.

When he retracted the shadow clone, a strong dizziness came over him, followed by a sensation as if a metal ball was rolling around in his head.

He could no longer hold on and fainted, his vision going black.

"Moyu!"

Liz hurriedly caught Moyu.

She carefully examined him and, upon confirming that he had only fainted, felt relieved.

"Is this a side effect of removing Nen...?"
