While Axel was eating, he was watching the fights going on live. Something caught his eye, and he paused, stood up, and began to look at the screen seriously with a hint of curiosity.
"That's right, it's been two months." They're already here.
Axel had seen Gon and Killua on screen. They were now in Heaven's Arena and had finished their first fight, going directly to the 50th Floor.
They would reach the 200th floor in as little as a month. Axel forgot how fast time passed after using Void.
As he thought, he smiled, and his face became a little nostalgic.
"I don't want to meet them right now."
"I watched them, lived with them, and got angry with them when I was on Earth, but here I am in the same world as them."
"The way they meet me can affect the course of things."
"The course of events will be affected as long as I'm here, but it would be best for everyone if it wasn't affected too much."
After turning off the TV, Axel focused lightly on his hand, and his aura gathered in his hand.
With a smile on his face, in less than a second, his aura began to feel special and different.
He stood up and lightly waved his hand at the iron pole that was in his room.
The iron pole had been cut easily, like slicing butter with a hot knife; there was no resistance at all.
"Yes, from now on, my ability to manage Nen is at a much higher level."
"After working for a while, I can move on to the Nen ability creation stage."
"The aftermath of my power will develop with practice and experience."
Axel began to practice using "nen" energy all night long. Thanks to his intelligence and natural abilities, he could train effectively, such as in physical strengthening and changing the Nen trait as he wanted, including his category of natural abilities.
For the first Nen War, he had a simple plan. He wanted to use the transmuter category to infect his attacks with something special.
The simple things that came to his mind were "fire," "ice," "poison," and similar things. If his attacks deal poison damage to targets and enemies, it would severely affect the power of the target and give him a boost and a versatile way to fight.
Axel didn't want that kind of special talent. He wanted to achieve this kind of influence and ability without conditioning and naming.
He doesn't know what kind of special ability Ging Freecs had, but he knows he is powerful, not because of some sort of ability but because of his mastery over
People like Ging have mastered Nen and understand it so well that they don't even need to create abilities to perform things with Nen.
They can do it with only their knowledge and mastery.
The Nen category he had was not a good fit for him to create complex abilities.
Axel"
"Human—Outer Universe Being"
"STR – 8.4"
"Agility—10.4"
Endurance: 9.4
" NEN – 10.3"
"Original Abilities"
"Time Void": The user can put his mind into a "void" after giving his body orders to complete. The user will be in a state similar to sleeping in the void; time and other things will pass in an instant.
"Boredom Immunity: The Use ofr does not feel bored or frustrated even when performing simple tasks. (Boredom immunity can be activated or deactivated with a mind order.)
Axel was preparing to leave the room after checking his condition. But at that moment, he began to hear a voice in his head. A few seconds later, he began to understand what the voice was saying, and a blue sheet of paper was opened before his eyes.
"Ding"
"Limited Ability (User may create only one ability for every 10.0 Nen Stat)"
After a few minutes, Axel breathed deeply and began to think in a way that did not hide the excitement on his face.
"I currently have a 10.0 Nen stat, and I can create a Nen skill."
"When I have a 20.0 nen stat, I can create one more nen special ability."
"As long as I continue to get stronger, I can do anything."
"They must be around here somewhere."
Andes began to look around and tell the stoic and cold-faced man next to him.
The cold-faced man began to look around with an uninterested face.
"Are you sure?" "This is just a dead end."
Andes closed her eyes slightly.
"I've been watching them with Algan for a while. But just as I was about to catch them, they disappeared.
"That means that besides that woman, Navi, she has another person, Ekail, who is helping her."
"The "nen" ability this person has must be something they use to hide their track."
Andes stopped looking around and turned toward the man named Algan and started to talk, her voice becoming serious and powerful.
"What's the state of your ability?"
Algan tilted his head to the right and began to speak.
His voice was calm and strong.
With his tall stature and steely muscular body, he had a character that was quite fitting and harmonious, befitting his looks.
"I've been saving for a few months."
"In short, I'm in the best shape I can be right now."
Andes smiled.
"Then I'll use "EN" and find them directly."
"Get ready for battle!"
After finishing his words, Andes whispers in a calm but powerful tone.
"En!"
Andes's aura begins to spread in a circular shape, and in less than one second it covers 100 meters of a circle-shaped area.
Andes' eyes became serious, and she began to run in the north direction with a serious expression on her face.
Algan was running right behind him.
A few minutes had passed when Andes began to scream.
"Are you going to keep getting scared and running away, you old bitch?"
Andes' words were enough to make the woman stop. She stopped and then turned her face to confront Andes.
"Crazy Woman Andes, why don't you want to let me go?"
"Or are you in love with me?"
Navi asked with a wry smile on her face.
A shadow flickers and a familiar face shows itself.
"Fiiiiiiiiiiiiv"
Ekail came to the side of Navi, and he was not alone.
Next to him was a strange man with a child-sized body, and he was wearing a black suit.
Andes frowned and focused on the short man.
"This must be the one who hides them."
"Damn, I'm constantly coming across new people, and since each one of them is a NEN user, it's too risky to fight without knowing the NEN abilities they have."
Andes begins to mock Ekail, with a slight smile on her face.
"After running away for a long time, you're finally back with your owner, little dog."
Ekail did not react, and no emotion formed on his face.
But from within, he was shouting unimaginable curses and fantasies involving great torture for Andes.
Navi took a deep breath.
"I know why you are here, and you've been chasing me in the city for the last three months."
"Give up, Mad Woman Andes; you know why the silver key is so precious to me."
Andes took a slight breath.
After focusing a little on his surroundings, he whispered in a cold, serious tone of voice without responding to Navi's words.
"Algan"
The solemn expression on Algan's face that was constantly present gave way to a big smile, and with the big crazy smile on his face, his voice whispered tremblingly.
The trembling of his voice was not because of fear but because of excitement.
Sand Playground—Funny Worms!
With Algan's whisper, the empty parking lot they were in had completely turned into sand, and in just a few seconds, sounds were coming from underground.
A few seconds later, worms began to emerge from underground.
They weren't exactly like worms. They looked more like worm-shaped creatures with pincers.
Their length was not entirely clear, but their thickness was equal to that of a human body.
"Sand Playground—Funny Worms" was Algan's special ability, and if prepared correctly, it was a very powerful ability.
Algan began to speak with a smile on his face. explaining some of his abilities. which is common for people who create abilities with restrictions and conditions.
"Funny worms will attack you; defeat them with strong nen attacks."
"They can't get out of the sand playground, but you can't leave the sand playground either."
"You must kill me, put me in an unconscious state, or destroy all the funny worms if you want to leave the playground."
"There's one more way to escape from here, but it's a secret."
"Let's start the game then."
Along with Algan's words, Navi and Ekail jumped, and Navi called out to the short man as she jumped.
"Careful Karies, try to escape as much as you can and cooperate with us!"
Karies looked at Navi and replied that his face shows a clear disturbance.
"Got it; I'll wait!"
Navi gets attacked by three funny worms the second she jumps.
The aura around her body grew stronger, and she was able to punish the Funny Worms that were attacking her with one kick and two punches.
But she had not managed to destroy them. The creatures she managed to repel fell back into the sand and burrowed into it.
Ekail took a deep breath and began to watch it all happen.
"Every Funny Worm has a serious nen aura when they emerge from the sand, but it drops by more than 80% the second they leave the sand to attack."
This means that Funny Worms are not able to leave the sand for very long, and they lose 80% of their total power the second they leave the sand underground.
"If I set foot on the sand and get caught by a few of them, they can pull me into the sand with the pincers they have and by using numbers."
"Which means the result would be getting killed."
Navi, like Ekaeel, had noticed all this. However, realizing this did not imply that they had won.
They still had an issue to solve.
To stop the ability, they needed to stop the man named Algan; the Funny Worms were simply untouchable in the sand they were in, and they couldn't kill each of them as they attacked them.
They never attacked a single one.
They were always targeting and attacking in three or more ways.
It takes a lot of aura to make a powerful attack enough to destroy Funny Worms, and when they performed a powerful attack, the aura on the defensive side was too much weaker and they were killed.
It was too risky.
Ekail and Navi managed to repel a few more attacks. They were attacked again every three seconds, and it was hard to predict where the attack would come from.
"What do you think?"
Ekail called out to Navi.
Navi took a deep breath and looked at Algan.
"Andes is gone!"
Navi took a deep breath and thought. A few seconds later, a light appeared in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.
Algan realized that part of his ability had been understoodbecause of Navi.
"The Mad Woman Andes told me that Navi was intelligent and strong nen expert and master. But I wasn't expecting so much!"
"They are starting to understand the nature of my ability less than one minute after the battle started."
Axel opened his eyes, and after focusing around him for a while, a relaxed and smiling expression appeared on his face. He had managed to figure things out in his head.
After thinking about it for a while, he thought of a simple but quite beautiful talent for his first.
"The most powerful categories I have are enhancer, emitter, and transmuter, which means that I will be stronger in physical battles than other nen users."
"I can create simple but still strong ability thanks to the my categories."
"Increasing physical strength and general combat ability in line with Enhancer"
"I can use Emitter category to seperate the "NEN" in my body and use it."
"With the help of the Transmuter category, I can change the quality and purpose of my "NEN"
Axel closed his eyes slightly and began to use "En."
It wasn't hard to use "En" because of the knowledge he had and the training that "Void" provided, but also because of his intelligence.
"If I push myself too hard, my "EN" can cover a circular area of 50 meters."
"Even an experienced nen master like Kite had to work for a long time." only after a long period of hard work was he able to cover an area of 50 meters because "En" was a "Nen" practical skill that was directly used by the Emitter and Enhancer categories at its best.
Axel took a deep breath and realized that he could feel everything that was inside "En," as if he could see and hear with his eyes.
"It's a really good feeling, a bit tiring, but it still works."
"My ability will be connected to my "EN""
In a matter of seconds, Axel covered his entire body with "Nen" and then whispered through it.
"The aura I use the most will be called a secondary aura." "I normally use the "primary aura" system, and I will use it!"
With the power of the "Transmuter" category, I can create another type of aura, which is going to be called "Secondary Aura."
As Axel continued to build his special ability, the smile on his face continued to grow, and his aura began to oscillate more wildly.
"If I can cover my body and everything with the "secondary aura," I will be directly connected to the entire aura that "En" occupies."
"The aftermath will be more fun..."
Axel took a deep breath and began to use a "secondary aura" in and around his body. A few seconds later, the "aura" he used for "En" was the same as "nen."
But that wasn't enough to achieve what he wanted. He needed to add something extra.
"When the secondary aura is used, the "En" can only cover a circular area of 30 meters; this limit of use cannot be increased."
"When the secondary aura is used, "Gyo," "Shu," and "Ren" nen applications will be 20% weaker."
Axel had imposed certain conditions and rules on himself.
A few seconds later, he opened his eyes with a shining smile, and in less than a second,
Axel had disappeared without any change in sound or image and had reappeared at five meters of distance on the top of his bed.
Axel swallowed at the time, and with a deep breath, he knew he had formed his ability. He named his first talent with a word that came from within and his feelings.
"Secondary Aura: Freedom Soul"
The user can activate "En" using the "Secondary Aura" system. He can teleport and relocate in "En," activated by his "secondary aura."
"With each teleportation, the aura from the "primary aura" and the "secondary aura" is expended."
Rules–
1. The user has to switch to the "Secondary Aura" system.
2. The "width and length" size can only cover a 30 meter of diameters while the user uses a "secondary aura."
3: When the user uses "Secondary Aura," "Gyo," "Shu," and "Ren," nen applications will be 20% weaker, and the use of the Freedom teleportation ability will waste less aura.
Axel exhaled deeply, and within seconds all the "Nen" he had vanishes and replaced by the "Zetsu."
"Now that I've built up my ability, I know what I have to do."
Axel closed his eyes with a demonic smile on his face and whispered.
"Void, practice the Secondary Aura: Freedom Soul ability without revealing it to anyone, and it's important to practice your nen."
"On the 29th day, the last day of practice, sleep and rest all day."
After Axel finished, he exhaled another deep breath and closed his eyes.
"Another month has passed."
Axel smiles as he brushes his teeth.
A month had passed, and he felt like he had only been alive for a second.
The ability he had was very powerful and versatile.
"At the end of today, I will have to fight."
Axel looked at the watch on his left arm and remembered having a match with Sadaso exactly eight hours later. He took the remote control from the TV on his bed and turned it on.
After watching for a few minutes, he whispered with a sympathetic expression on his face.
"Gon and Killua should have learned Nen now; if I remember correctly, in a few weeks, Kastro and Hisoka will fight, and Gon should have finished his first Nen battle with Gido."
At that time, Axel remembered an important detail. After a few seconds, the live scene on his TV changed and was replaced by information about his fight.
"Ding"
"Mister Axel, your battle with Sadaso has been canceled because Sadaso is no longer in Heaven's Arena."
"Today you will fight Gardav instead of Sadaso." "Don't forget to prepare."
Axel got out of bed and lit a cigarette. After calling food to his room, he starts to smoke and begins to look out the window and watch the city.
"Naturally, I would want to fight someone whose abilities I know or have some idea of."
"I don't remember the guy named Gardav."
"But that will be a better practice for me."
Axel's eyes and face were smiling together.
The sun coming through the window was hitting his face as he was greeting himself.
Although he had been living in the world of Hunter x Hunter for some time, today he would fight for the first time.
At least he was going to fight for the first time using "Nen," and that was important to him.
Axel closed his eyes, and within seconds, a significant amount of nen was being released around his body.
A simple observation revealed the extent and power of nen. At the same time, his talent had become serious and developed along with the practice of the Void.
"I'm ready for battle; I'll try to prolong and practice as much as I can."
"My opponent's previous battles are recorded." But as Wing told Gon, watching a nen battle is also considered training and cheating in some sense.
"Although the cheating part doesn't apply to me, it would be better not to know about my opponent and learn about them during the battle."
"When I fight in real life, I won't know who my opponent is or his talent."
So I don't need to know anything here to get a good education and practice.
Axel blinks rapidly, then calms down. He starts to analyze the man in front of him.
It was his first time fighting on the 200th floor, and that was an important situation for him.
Fighting on the 200th Floor meant participating in the nen battle for the first time, and it's not surprising that people were injured in these battles and, in rare cases, killed.
Brown, perfectly groomed hair gently hangs over a furrowed, warm face. Beady sapphire eyes set delicately within their sockets keep a wary eye on the mountains they've grown fond of for so long.
A goatee graciously compliments his cheeks and leaves a beautiful memory of his reckless luck.
Gardav looked Axel in the eye for a few seconds and began to speak.
"I've fought here with four people so far."
"I hope you don't think you're too strong and rely too much on yourself and lose your life."
Axel smiled and replied.
"Thank you for thinking of me. But I want you to do your best."
Gardev greeted Axel's words with a puzzled expression on his face. After a momentary puzzled expression, the puzzled expression on his face slowly turned into a smile and then a desire to fight.
"Come then."
A strong aura began to shine around Gardav, and he started to run toward Axel. Axel squinted slightly and thought.
"Slower than I thought."
Gardev and Axel were in close combat range, and the fisting had begun. They both blocked each other's fists using their elbows and arms. Within three seconds, they had a simple understanding of each other.
"This guy is strong!" Both Axel and Gardev thought the same thing. The level of aura they had was, on average, the same. Axel did not use gyo or other advanced fighting techniques in conjunction with nen.
"Take this!"
Gardev jumped into the air and aimed an axe kick at Axel's head. Axel avoided the attack with ease to the left and attacked Gardev, who was still in the air, with a palm blow.
"Bummmmm"
Gardev flew five meters back. Axel's palm attack hit him on his belly, and there was nothing he could do to block or escape from it.
Gardev lightly spits blood on the floor, and the smile on his face turns demonic.
"Now that the warm-up is over, it's time for us to get started."
With Gardev's words, a red-colored object began to form in his hand. A few seconds later, the red object turned into a long spear.
Axel starts to analyze the conjured item in the hands of Gardev. His face looks calm and has some sort of maturity as he looks at the spear and Gardev all together.
"It's a simple red spear."
"He has to be someone who is in the conjuration category; I don't know exactly, but I don't think he is a specialist; he did not create the spear when we started to fight but conjured it after he took a hit from me."
"It could be because he needed to take a hit from me to conjure his spear." It could be one of the conditions for him to use his talent.
"Like Feitan's Pain Packer and Princess Camilllia's "Cat Who Lived a Million Lives," his nen ability appears to be counteractive type."
Axel took a deep breath, and at that moment, Gardev continued to speak.
"You have given me a good amount of pain, and I will give you back this pain three times as much."
Axel didn't fight back and just kept thinking. It was good practice for him to analyze and learn the skills of the other party.
