Masadora x Rush x Bomber
Now then... we're off to Masadora!
Osu!
It's about 70 km from here.
Well, three hours should be enough I guess.
Hey... three hours? Are you serious?
Of course.
Number nine!
Bingo!
But your reactions were too slow!
Both of you do 200 push-ups.
What?!
Shit.
But, when we reach Masadora...
we can finally buy some spell cards, right?
Yeah.
But before that, we'll have to do something about money.
Hey.
If you keep on talking we won't make it in three hours.
A village, huh?
Isn't it more like a camp
This village is deserted.
Hurry up you two!
Ah, there it is!
Bisuke's late...
All this right after we arrive?
Geez, where the hell did she wander off to?
Thanks for waiting!
Bisuke your hair...
What do you think?
I tried changing my image.
Yeah, it suits you.
What's the point in a hag getting glamorous?
This brat...
well, since I'm in a good mood today I'll forgive him.
Now then, let's go.
I wonder where they sell spell cards.
Hey you guys... forget that and look for a department store.
A department store.
A department store?
What will you be buying?
It's a se-cr-et.
Ah, I see. Thank you.
Where's Bisuke?
Let's see... ah, over there!
Bisuke, we found out where to buy spell cards.
I see... you guys tired?
Not at all!
Then, we'll be heading back to the rocky area.
What?
Why?
What about spell cards?
You don't need those for training do you?
And it's not like we have any rare cards.
That's true...
All right!
This time, we'll return in two and a half hours!
What?
All right So, let's begin.
Gain.
And now, we will head back to Masadora.
Didn't we just get back from there?!
Could this hag be losing her memory?
However...
this time, we're heading directly toward it
D-directly... do you mean...
What about the mountains?
That's right, you shovel through.
This rock is softer than I expected.
Yeah.
At this rate, it shouldn't take too long.
Shoveling strains not just my arms but my whole body
And the dirt seems to be getting harder.
Pushing this wheelbarrow needs so much lower body strength.
If I loosen my grip I'll lose balance and spill the contents.
We made it...
I can't go on anymore...
We probably only moved about 200 meters...
You sure?
I'm 100 more times tired then yesterday...
Hold on.
If you want to rest, do it here.
So that's why you bought the rope, huh.
Starting from today you will sleep like this.
Don't let go of the rope.
If we let go, the rock will smash us.
Exactly.
In addition, I'll occasionally throw this knife to cut the rope,
so you better stay sharp even as you're resting.
I see... Dad often used to do this to me.
He sure is skillful...
Okay.
If you drop it, you have to put it back yourself.
Damn it.
All right, I'll hold it real tight this time.
Ouch!
Ouch.
Ouch!
Don't push yourself too hard, Gon.
You haven't slept right?
I'm just fine...
I'll gradually make the rock bigger.
Especially for you, Gon.
You're lacking in alertness, so I gave you a bonus.
I'll be me even if I get hit... I think...
What's wrong?
Seems like I hit a really hard section.
Think you can dig through it?
Probably not with a shovel.
A punch with Nen could break through it, but...
Killua!
What happened to your aura while you're shoveling?
My aura?
As usual... it stayed normal.
Not like that.
Think of the shovel as a part of your body.
Part of my body... ah!
See?
I see.
If the shovel is wrapped in my aura, its digging power increases.
In that case..
Yeah.
Amazing! This way you can dig so fast!
Now, the rock feels just like pudding!
Looks like they've noticed
The technique of applying Ten, known as Shu.
However, this technique consumes much more endurance and vitality than normal.
If they get too cocky...
Why?
I don't have any strength left.
I can't even control my aura properly.
Physical strength, endurance, and spiritual strength.
Also, one's store of aura, and control over it.
This training will improve all of these attributes.
When we reach Masadora, the first stage will be complete.
Here we go!
All right, we tunneled through!
A job well done!
We probably moved about 5km today.
I thought it would take us years when we first started
Just a few more days...
And we'll be done.
Good.
All right!
We've finally reached Masadora!
Okay!
Now, we'll head back!
Again?
This time, we're going to get monster cards.
Try getting all types that exist here.
Now, you should have no problems getting them.
If you can't defeat something...
you lack observation and analysis of the enemy...
and instantaneous battle planning.
In other words, the ability to fight strategically.
I won't say a word.
You have to think for yourselves, and capture the monsters.
But, what an amazing bunch of guys...
to have made such a game.
If one played this game properly...
one would definitely become stronger as programmed.
Perhaps, all this...
was done to make that boy stronger.
Zetsu!
Gotcha!
I got the Bubble Horse!
Yeah!
They were able to collect all the monster cards that exist here within a month's time.
Look, look, Killua I finally got it!
We're right on schedule.
Though it took some time...
From now on, we will focus on training defense!
Osu!
That's...
That's right Gon.
This is the move you use.
Applying Ten, Zetsu, Ren, Hatsu and Gyo by combining them...
we get Ko!
Ko...
It garners aura from one's whole body for an attack.
For that reason, it exceeds the power of normal moves.
I will attack with a fist bound in Ko.
You have to block all of it.
No dodging allowed.
From the look on your faces you should already know.
The problem is how to block a Ko attack.
We'll use Ko too!
Yeah, half correct.
With Ko against Ko...
no damage will be inflicted unless one's Nen level is drastically different
However, if an attack hits a place unguarded by Ko...
you will be destroyed.
Use Ko to guard the whole body.
It's a contradiction, but that's what you mean, right?
Correct.
By applying Ten and Ren, you get Ken.
This guards the whole body with much more aura then usual.
Gon, try using Ren.
Sure.
That act of sustaining it, is called Ken.
Ready?
I'm going to make my move.
It's so slow...
You thought you could slack off because it was slow, didn't you.
If you had undone Ken, your face would've been crushed.
That was just the power of Ko alone.
If one combines the speed and power of a swung fist,
its power increases by 10 or more times.
For starters I will hit slowly like just now..
By using Ken, try bearing it as much as possible.
Yeah
Gon...
l didn't think maintaining Ken would be this tough.
If you plan to fight the decently strong,
you need to maintain Ken for at least 30 minutes.
30 minutes?
You're still at around two minutes.
Damn it!
Good, that makes 30 minutes.
Over this month, you've become quite tough.
Now, we will advance to actual battle training today.
Keep both offense and defense at 50%,
and adjust them accordingly depending on the circumstances.
I'll call this offense-defense.
Also, adjustment of this is called Ryu.
Take it slow for starters.
Right leg offense-defense, 70%
Whole body, 30%
Gon, left hand offense-defense, 70%
Whole body, 30%
Now, adjust your offense-defense yourselves.
Analyzing one's opponent's offense-defense...
is also extremely crucial.
Okay break time!
Thank you very much.
It's only been two weeks since we started.
What amazing improvement
I thought it would take at least two full months but..
I'm just astonished.
At your current states, moving to the final stage won't be a problem.
Final stage?
Last is training in specific abilities.
Gon is Reinforcement.
Killua is Transformation, right?
For specific ability training in Reinforcement:
Level one is rock breaking.
Break rocks with another rock just like this.
If you break a thousand rocks with a single rock, you pass.
Begin!
Damn it, just when I made it to 150.
189...
190...
Ah... damn it, I messed up.
What are you talking about?
You're doing well.
It usually takes a few weeks to clear 100 rocks.
All right!
Next, let's do Transformation training.
Don't rush it.
Different abilities should be trained on different days.
6!
Bingo!
It's a draw.
Again?
We've been like this for quite some time.
All right.
Let's decide with Rock, Paper, Scissors.
You're on!
Loser has to do 500 sit-ups and push-ups too.
Rock, Paper, Scissors, it's another tie!
I win!
Damn it!
Hey you two...
Did you know that Rock, Paper, Scissors originated from martial arts?
Shou is Paper.
Shi is Scissors.
Ken is Rock.
Shou destroys the organs.
Shi destroys features like the eyes and nose.
And, Ken destroys externally.
I see.
As expected from an ancient one...
In the past, all martial arts were deemed evil and oppressed.
Martial artists trained under the guise of fooling around.
Its been theorized that "Jyanken" originated from "Jyaken"
That's it!
Jyaken...
From the game's soil composition,
the plants and organisms within it,
and it being cut off from all transportation...
Considering all of these, this place is no doubt...
Greed Island.
It truly existed in the real world, after all.
Now then, which part of this island are we on?
We'll just have to steal an "accompany" first, then...
I wonder how many years it's been since we've had unwanted guests.
It makes me nervous.
Just asking to be sure...
but you didn't drift ashore, right?
Drifting here is impossible because of the surrounding currents.
This man is strong.
Who are you?
Are you going to show us around or something?
I'm one of the creators of this game.
The name's Razor.
Creator?
I'm in charge of the system's emission issues.
Like moving around with spells and removing outsiders.
Only Game Masters can use special spells.
This card expels those who enter Greed Island by improper methods...
to somewhere within the Asiatic continent.
It's regretful, but rule breakers have to leave.
What?
If you enter properly I will welcome you.
Just to let you know, defeating me will get you certain items,
so if you play we may end up fighting.
Fine by me.
I'll be back... from the front door.
"Eliminate" on.
What an amazing bunch of people.
First is Rock...
Rock...
Paper...
Fist!
I see.
What do you think?
Good enough, don't you think?
Comrades,
we have currently gathered together 90 of the 133 designated pocket cards,
thanks to the efforts of everyone here.
You have my gratitude.
Of the ten odd left, we know where seven of them are.
They are more or less ours.
Compared to other teams...
we have more, and better spell cards.
Victory is within our grasp!
Yeah!
This is the strength of unification!
It is the outcome of every individual's cooperation.
Yeah!
May I add in one thing?
I've been in this game for five years.
It felt kind of long, yet kind of short.
But, that doesn't matter.
I have something to tell everyone here.
I am Bomber.
Hey, what are you saying?
Well, just listen.
I'm getting to the main point.
I have placed bombs on every one of you.
Huh?
I will exchange your lives for designated pocket cards.
That is what I ask for...
