I'm in HxH, Survive for Five Years!

Chapter 46: 46



Compression of somatosensory time limit.

The movement of things other than himself seemed to slow down suddenly.

Ethan seized this opportunity and immediately noticed Hisoka appearing to his side.

He could even see Hisoka swinging his right arm like a knife, aiming for his neck.

Although somatosensory time had been compressed, it didn't mean Ethan had broken away from the normal flow of time.

Hisoka's attack was fast approaching. Even if Ethan's reactions matched Hisoka's movements, it was too late to dodge or block.

At this critical moment, a large number of silk threads suddenly emerged from beneath Hisoka's feet, creating bulges that lifted his figure several feet higher.

The knife-like attack flashed over Ethan's head, causing his hair to sway from the airflow.

"The Art of War: Plundering Like Fire!"

The life-and-death situation didn't panic Ethan; instead, he handled it with extreme calmness.

Not only did he activate the Thread Fruit in time to lift Hisoka out of the way of the dangerous attack, but he also twisted around, launching an explosive counterattack.

'Plundering Like Fire' is the most aggressive move in [Army Killing Fist].

The Nen gathered in his right fist burned like fire, perfectly combined with his physical strength, making the explosive punch as violent as ignited explosives.

Hisoka retracted his right hand at lightning speed, quickly touching and pulling away with his left hand.

Hisoka's reaction was quick. In a brief moment, his attack failed, and Ethan responded with a ferocious counterattack.

After touching and pulling with his hands, "Bungee Gum" extended out, forming a shield-like barrier.

Boom! ! !

Ethan's fist crashed into Hisoka's "Bungee Gum" shield. Instantly, the explosive force of Ethan's punch stirred the surrounding air into chaotic turbulence.

Like chewing gum, [Bungee Gum] deformed and twisted under the violent punch, eventually reaching its limit and exploding.

The brief buffer gave Hisoka the chance to escape. Using the elasticity from [Bungee Gum] and the force of Ethan's punch, he retreated over ten meters without sustaining significant harm.

"So, you've finally used this Nen? And to destroy my [Bungee Gum]—such an attack is truly intoxicating."

Stopping his retreat, Hisoka's feet scraped against the ground, leaving two furrows. His eyes first glanced at the silk threads that had lifted him, then focused intently on Ethan.

The [Bungee Gum] he had used for defense had been enhanced by Hisoka, making it far stronger than ordinary [Bungee Gum].

Yet even so, it was blown away by Ethan's punch. This was enough for Hisoka to gauge the power of Ethan's attack, recognizing it as capable of inflicting serious damage.

And then there was the Thread Fruit.

From the start until now, Ethan hadn't used the Thread Fruit.

Hisoka, who regarded the Thread Fruit as Ethan's primary Nen ability, was naturally wary.

"Finally using the Thread Fruit..."

The countless threads that had retracted into the ground in front of him, Ethan focused on Hisoka, who had evaded his attack, contemplating silently.

The reason he hadn't used the Thread Fruit earlier wasn't due to a lack of control or inability to engage in battle, but rather to see if he could defeat Hisoka without it.

Being an Enhancer, Ethan's previous training centered around this power.

Facing a formidable opponent like Hisoka, he wanted to test his current level as an Enhancer.

The results were promising.

Although he hadn't won, the gap wasn't significant. He had managed to compete for a while and even inflicted some injuries on Hisoka.

"Now that the Thread Fruit is in play, the real fight can begin!" A cold glint flashed in Ethan's eyes.

The real fight meant using all means to take down the opponent.

With the Thread Fruit suppressed, he hadn't truly fought Hisoka until now.

"Bullet Thread!!"

He quickly raised his left hand, and his index finger became like the muzzle of a gun. Instantly, several bullets made of threads were formed and shot toward Hisoka at astonishing speed.

"Here it comes!"

Hisoka's eyes lit up, not with fear but with excitement about Ethan's attack.

Ethan's earlier reluctance to use the Thread Fruit signaled to Hisoka that Ethan hadn't been fighting at full strength.

And now, with the Thread Fruit in play, Hisoka was almost entering a state of euphoria.

Whoosh whoosh! ! !

Several playing cards appeared swiftly in his hand. In his excitement, Hisoka shot the cards out in an instant.

In a moment, silk bullets and playing cards collided mid-air between them.

Bang bang bang! ! !

The playing cards shattered into pieces, scattered by the silk bullets.

It wasn't a collision of physical matter. When the infused Nen energy was similar, the Enhancer's Nen naturally had the advantage.

Moreover, compared to Hisoka's cards, the 'threads' were made of extremely sharp silk.

Especially after Ethan's practice with the [Hundred Times Practice Card], his development of the Thread Fruit had advanced significantly, making the threads far sharper than before.

The silk bullets broke through the playing cards and continued their high-speed trajectory toward Hisoka.

Despite this, Hisoka showed no sign of panic and prepared to dodge.

The speed of the silk bullets was indeed fast, but not beyond Hisoka's ability to track and evade.

But just as Hisoka was about to dodge, dozens of 'ropes' composed of silk threads wrapped around his feet, interrupting his movement.

"Hmm?!"

The restraint made Hisoka's figure momentarily sluggish, even off-balance.

His expression shifted slightly, but he quickly regained control of his balance with exceptional coordination.
