It's no different from a real one.
It sure doesn't feel like we're in a game.
I wonder if phinx and phata are here, too?
Who knows.
We'll move in a different direction.
First, let's go gather some info.
Canvass x name list x Rock
A definite way of clearing the game?
Some player attacked you with a magic spell on your way here.
Were you watching us the whole time?
I was,
Surveillance and recruiting people are my jobs.
If you join us,
I'll tell you about the spell that was cast on you.
And about spell cards...
You can decide whether to join us
or not after hearing what we have to say
So this would be everyone...
What about that pair?
They declined our offer.
I see...
Well, let's start then.
We already had a player killed back there.
Someone who started at the same time as you guys.
These two saw it too.
His stomach blew up.
A muscular guy with black hair...
He was the first to pass the examination.
It was the Bomber's doing.
Bomber?
First off, let's address what you guys are most worried about right now.
His death was not caused by a spell.
In this game there are no spell cards
that can hurt or kill anyone.
Therefore, after you was enchanted
there's no chance of being injured or killed
You're not the only one who has had a spell cast on them.
There are 40 different types of spells.
Varying from attack to movement to defense and much more.
The one that was case on you
belongs to the survey type.
It was either trace of adhesion
Trace on! attack killua1
That spell gathers information about the person it is cast on.
Such as your current position
or what kind of cards you have.
All this is revealed to the caster.
in this game, that become a big disadvantage for you.
You've already gotten yourself into that situation,
so it'll be rough for you starting out.
There are people that keep a constant lookout around the starting point to...
cast these spell on new players.
If that guy...
would then appear the instant you obtain a valuable card and...
try to take it from you by force.
In the worst case,
you'll lose your life.
Like that guy who was killed just now.
I won't be taken out that easily.
No,
the guy that killed him is different.
they're the most extreme kind of player hunters.
In order to reduce the number of their rivals,
they kill opponent first.
They choose a target beforehand
and kill that person without being noticed.
From the different ways that people are killed
we've concluded that there are at least four people who do this.
The person who killed your acquaintance is one of them.
He's probably a Manipulation or Emission type Nen-user.
Because of the bombing staple of killing.
we call him the Bomber.
In this game, there are three ways to get cards.
Know what they are? Finding it ourselves
Yeah, that's the first way.
Trading them with other player
That's the second.
So I guess the third way is to steal them from other players....
That's correct.
Especially the third method.
Instead of finding them themselves, or trading with other players.
More and more players are choosing to steal the cards by force.
They threaten and beat people.
To force them to bring out their binders and then they take their cards.
If they don't bring out their despite all the beating, then they kill them.
When that happens.
their ring and all their cards disappear.
Even if they can't take their cards.
More items become available to transform into cards
Huh? what does that mean
If the cards disappears, then they can't steal them, right.
It's the maximum number or cards available.
For instance if the card limit was maxed out for a particular item.
Then if we kill a guy that has that part icular card, then it would disappear.
And that'll create another space right
If we kill an opponent, we can't take his cards.
this rule was probably created to
prevent players in the game from killing each other.
However, 10 years have passed since this game was first released to the public.
the conditions are deteriorating.
there are people who kill other just to make a card available for them.
People who have the idea is be more and more
This is now at its peak
let's end this, once and for all, together.
we'll gather as many allies as possible and clear the game
Cooperate with us...
and your methods.
Which category do yours fit into?
The third.
You're all talk,
you're still going to get them using violence after all?
You're wrong
At least, we don't resort to villence
spells.
You're stealing them using spells, rigth
Have you player this game before.
No, this is my first time
It's just something that you can figure out if you use your head, right
Exactly,
we use spells to gather the cards
the 40 types of spell cards are separated into defense and offense cards.
they are spell to steal cards and some to protect the cards that you have.
we'll monopolize all these kinds of spell cards.
I see...
So you're gonna monopolize all the defense cards. The enemy's will be useless.
Then you'd use an offense card to
steal the needed cards from the opponent's pockets, right.
That's right
We need 1900 spell cards to monopolize them
Already, 53 of our allies
have gathered 800 of those.
by using the designated pockets of all of our allies.
we've gathered
67 out of the 100 designated cards that we need to clear the game
So
you've basically gathered about 70%/% of the total number of cards, eh?
When it was initiated five years ago,
this project looked hopeless.
However, our allies and cards have doubled in the last few moths
It's only a matter of time before we've all of the cards
Consistency becomes the power, eh.
Together, let's end this massacring game
let me reiterate
There is no other way to clear this game
The main point of this game is acquiring cards from other players.
Even if we obtain a card, there's a constand danger of our cards being stolen
However, our plan is
to have our alliles who've obtained the cards hide them for safekeeping,
Thus eliminating the possibility of having them stolen.
The cards that we still need to monopolize that spell type will be...
gathered in the next couple of months.
If we do our best, then approximately one month after that,
we can all clear this game
in other words, we'll clear the game in 3 months
What about the reward
How are you dividing the reward after we clear the game
I'm aware that all of you were dispatched here by Mr. Battera.
The reward is 50 billion
We'll divide it among our allies.
20 billion will go to the 10 people who started this project years ago.
The remaining 30 billion will be divided among our other allies.
l estimate that you'll each receive about 200 million
If you join us,
then we'll undo the spells that are affecting you.
when you've a spell cast on you,
it can be undone when you leave the game,
But there are people who can't leave and have stayed in this game.
I bet you've already realized that.
Can that also be done by spells
That's right
We have plenty of spell cards
that allow us to exit the game
Unless you obtain a particular item, you cannot get out of here.
I'll join
Even if I tried to clear this game on my own,
l don't know how many years that would take
It hurts that the 50 billion becomes 200 million,
but the 3 months projection is enticing,
One question
Let's say I was able to obtain a card with an SS difficulty
Will my share of the reward be increased?
Yeah, if it's an SS level card,
then we're making offers with the 50 billion
ok, I'm in
How about you guys
Killua, sorry
what for?
No thanks,
I'll play on my own
The leader said he won't,
so I'll pass too.
How about you?
Huh? let's see...
I guess this means that al the spells cast on us have been canceled.
And in 3 more months, we'll clear this game...
This is easier than I thought
I'm not too sure about that.
All are here?
What was that spell?
Magnetic Force
It allows you to fly to other players' locations.
I will guide you guys to our headquarters now.
Accompany on!
Cozephtro
Welcome to our headquarters new members
Even though I said that, there's still quite a distance to wald from here
My name is Cozephtro, don't forget it,
You'll need it to use the spell card to get back here.
I see,
so we don't directly jump to the headquarters
they're in order to prevent their headquarters, They're cautious...
The ten of you will be gathering spell cards.
In other words,
after receiving instructions, from headquarters.
you'll have to fly to another location
Your destination is the magical city masadora.
That's the only place you'll be able to gather spell cards from
Follow me
Cards come in packets of three which cost 30,000 zennies.
You won't know what cards are in them until you buy the packets
Of course, the higher the rank, the more difficult they are to obtain.
So they're just like trading cards.
that's correct.
Collecting one of each of the 40 types of spell cards.
enables you to trade them
for the great angel's breath SS card.
Ever since the start of this game,
it's a card that no one probably has yet,
But we were able to gather them
all the 40 types.
that means...
Why don't we trade them for the great angel's breath?
we want to do that as soon as possible.
but before doing so,
there's one more card that we want to have a spare of.
this will be your first priority
Obtaining the defense spell card, prism?
We can see it now, that's our headquarters.
I'll get into the insrucions for the spell cards right away
There are two spell classes, Close-range spells and long-range spells.
The close-range spells can only be used within a 20 meter radius of the user.
long-range spells can be used from anywhere on be island.
This 20 meter radius is the effective area of the spell.
Memorize it so that is becomes instinctive.
Once you do that. we'll have you participate in our plan
what's this?
you can say that it contains everything about our plan
A list of all 40 types of spell cards...
Memorize the different kinds of cards that exist in this game
within one hour.
I see...
So there are more defense spell cards than there are offense ones.
and they're easier to obtain
But if the offence spell succeeds,
then we can steal the valuable spell cards...
as well.
So, it is we're able to monopolize well-off all of...
the defense cards.
these lists will be retrieved and disposed of in one hour.
those who aren't able to memorize them will be made to do petty work
Huh? What's wrong
I've memorized them
What?!
I'm sorry killua.
I just couldn't stand them any longer.
Like I said, I don't get what you're sorry for.
Because, now
you'll still have that spell that was cast on you for a while longer...
Oh, that?
It doesn't matter, it's not poisonous or anything
Anyways what's with the short fuse back there?
You were angry... extremely
Because they called the game that Jin made, a massacre.
They said it's just players fighting over cards.
they only look at the negative aspects...
Like Jin told us to,
l thought that we should just enjoy this game,
You've come far, Gon...
This is a game I made with my colleagues...
Well, just enjoy it.
When i stood at the starting point.
I knew that this wasn't going to be easy,
but it wasn't going to be dreadful or anything
I just thought that all the people in the game were playing seriously to have
fun
It's true that some have died.
But what's scary is not the game itself, but the players' mentality
The thought of obtaining the cards even if it means hurting their...
opponents...
you think so?
I think that's okay
Killua! Are you serious!?
That's why this is an exclusive game for Hunter's, right?
But...
Hold on, Killing's all wrong, I agree with you there
but let's say
If each player puts out a card and battles.
With a set rule
whereby the winner gets the loser's cards. how about that?
Yeah, that's okay...
Right? it's no different that we take the cards.
What's different is that we're not using brute force, right?
Yeah, it's different...
Even the guy that cast the spell on me was playing fairly.
Besides, it's the obvious thing to do once you find our how this game words.
Things like casting spells on your opponent.
l think that even those guys' plan was just natural to think up
Although the strategy's all laid out and not the least bit cool....
you're right...
Well, anyway,
let's leave them be
and enjoy this game a little more!
Killua!
Thank you
I'm really happy that you're here with me
No...
l met you
I'm just really fortunate that
Stop it, idiot! it's embarrassing
Why? that's what I really think!
It's just the opposite,
Gon.
It's me...
Gon
l met you
I'm really glad
I see
That's why he was angry
Nonetheless, isn't that just sweet?
A young boy's true friendship...
It's kinda itching me to destroy it.
Killua! Rock, papers, scissors!
What's with you all a sudden?
Let's practice for the rock, paper, scissors Tournament!
starting with the Rock...
Rock paper, scissors!
Crap, I lost again
Damn, why does this happen
Actually, there's a secret to this
this fisherman that came by whale island told me about it.
listen, Gon
Starting with the Rock rule is the key
Then your opponent would raise their hand in a fist.
and when they bring it down
80-90%/% of the time, it's already in the form that they are going to use
in other words,
if your opponent keeps a fist or if you're able to see what...
they change to.
just put out a hand that's stronger than your opponent's is
and if it's iffy, then just put out scissors, and you won't lose.
if you use the Rock first rule and make their hands come out farther.
Then it's easier to see their movement
So, with good eyes,
you can win more than 90%/% of the time using this method.
Why you! You're cheap! you should've told me earlier!
Then that means that time, and that time too...
The theory behind it is easy, but it's not as easy when you actually do it.
Leorio couldn't do it even after I taught him
In other words it's cheating, right?
So, are you going to stop using it?
I'll use it
Right I call it the Win with our eyes strategy!
the sword of truth is ours!
Ready go!
Rock first!
Rock papers scissors! Rock papers scissors!
The winner has been decided! It's killua!!!
yes
He used his left hand
I never would've thought that he'd use his left hand in the finals!
We won't win with just our right hand
It was my anti-gon secret weapon,
l call it the with winning technique.
Congratulations!
this is the prize, the sword, of truth.
Look at it, Gon!
Grad 83
It's one of the designated ones!
Okay! got our first!
Next announce.
It's troublesome...
man what's with all these people coming after us for our card...
Next time on hunter x Hunter
Usurpation x Force x The hell of card
They took my cards.
