Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 303 Facing the Brigade

The field was filled with screams of pain.

Kurapika's warning didn't have much effect, because Franklin had already activated his ability.

Franklin, the seventh member of the Phantom Troupe, is an Emission-type Devil Fruit user whose Nen ability is dual-wielding machine guns.

It fires projectiles from its ten fingers to attack people.

The attacks were rapid and extremely frequent.

A large number of gang members are constantly dying because of this ability.

And when Kurapika speaks.

Feitan whistled.

"Looks like there really is an unexpected surprise!" After saying that, he disappeared from the stage, his target naturally being Kurapika who had spoken.

At the same time, Kurapika's teammate Shachimono also activated his ability.

The group, known as the Eleven Under the Eaves, uses black-clad human balloons as a building block and creates eleven combatants using their mental energy; eight wield swords and three wield guns.

They held everything in front of them, trying to block Franklin's psychic bullets.

He is also an Emission-type Devil Fruit user.

His Nen ability is not strong, and he is unable to perform precise control over it.

Kurapika's chains have already been used.

It is his commonly used middle finger chain. The middle finger chain can only be used on the Phantom Troupe, as it can force people into a state of extreme weakness.

It can still be used as a weapon for attack.

He spun the chain on his middle finger to form a defense, but a few psychic bullets still hit Shachimono's abilities, affecting him as well.

The instantaneous breaking of his ability also directly injured Shachimono.

Fortunately, Kurapika managed to withstand some of the Nen attacks, preventing a swift death like in the anime.

Of course, the current situation is not good either.

Has the Phantom Troupe really appeared?

Kurapika is not yet entirely certain whether the other party is the Phantom Troupe.

However, a decision should be made sooner rather than later.

He can at least block one of the opponent's attacks; he can defend against this mental bullet.

After all, Franklin was shooting at the entire field, not just at one person.

However, the number of teleportation bullets suddenly decreased significantly because Feitan had closed in on them.

Kurapika's sudden outburst drew their attention.

They had already been to the place where the auction items were kept, but there was nothing there. They interrogated the gangsters guarding the place.

The items had already been taken away beforehand.

Did someone get advance notice?

Kurapika's voice naturally made them want to keep him alive and question him more thoroughly.

With such tight security, how did they get in?

No, we shouldn't be thinking about these issues now; instead, we should be considering how to handle the current situation.

Despite having anticipated this, Kurapika was still somewhat taken aback by the sudden turn of events.

This is different from the situation in the anime where they were already prepared to face Uvogin.

Even when faced with the Phantom Troupe, Kurapika still has impulses; otherwise, Gon and Killua wouldn't have fallen into the Phantom Troupe's hands again in the anime.

Noticing Feitan's approach, he immediately swung the chains.

Feitan dodged it, but he still felt the power of the chains up close. The chains were very powerful, and if he had tried to withstand them head-on, he would have been injured.

It seems he's not an ordinary Nen user.

Originally intending to use only his hands, Feitan immediately drew his umbrella sword after dodging the forced retreat.

I stepped forward again.

The entire auction hall reeked of blood.

Ivalin was carrying the injured Shachimono and was heading towards the door to leave when he took out his phone to contact the outside.

And Lucci saw this scene.

This is quite a test for Kurapika.

Given Kurapika's personality, he'll probably come to regard the bodyguard team as friends after spending this time together.

If they die here, will it drive Kurapika to lose his mind?

Or is he able to handle the current problems well and wait for external support?

It's important to know that there are more than just two members of the Phantom Troupe inside this building.

Fortunately, Kurapika quickly calmed down.

"Ivalion, wait a minute, don't stray too far from me," Kurapika called out, causing Ivalion to pause slightly.

He turned around, somewhat puzzled.

At that moment, someone reached the doorway.

With Kurapika's warning and distraction, some will inevitably slip through the net and run to the door to escape.

But as soon as the door opened, they found two more figures standing there.

One was a tall, muscular man, and the other was a girl with a slightly naive appearance.

Naturally, these were the members of the troupe's operations this time: Uvogin and Shizuku.

Those who rushed to the door were easily killed by them.

At the location where the auction items were being offered, the knight-errant emerged from the venue, holding a mobile phone in his hand.

Five now.

Are there two other powerful auras inside the building, also from the Phantom Troupe?

As the number of people inside the building decreased, Kurapika's senses became stronger. Of course, it was also at this time that the members of the Phantom Troupe stopped deliberately hiding themselves.

This is getting a bit tricky.

Kurapika's expression darkened; he had already entered a state of fiery red eyes.

"Who are you? How dare you attack an auction? But it doesn't matter, you're all dead, including your families."

There were still living gang members inside, making threats.

However, the flying tank wouldn't tolerate its opponent and killed it directly.

Kurapika, along with Shachimono and Ivalice, arrived at a secluded corner and used chains to confront the Phantom Troupe.

"Oh, there are some pretty good Nen users here!" Uvogin looked at Kurapika with excitement.

During their operation, they encountered a few gangsters who knew Nen, though they only had a rudimentary grasp of it and weren't exactly experts.

He killed him very easily.

There was absolutely no sense of combat.

From other positions, two more people appeared: Nobunaga and Machi.

"Uvogin, don't kill him, he might know some more precise information," the knight warned.

"I'll be very careful," Uvogin said with a wide grin.

"It seems we'll need some more time. I'll go and make preparations first."

We need to stay a while longer because we might need to interrogate Kurapika.

The knight-errant plans to manipulate a few gangsters to create confusion.

The others dealt with their subordinate gang members and had no immediate plans to join forces with Uvogin to fight Kurapika.

At least in their view, Uvogin should have a simple task in dealing with Kurapika.

He is an Enhancement-type Devil Fruit user in the Uvogin Phantom Troupe and also a member of the assault team. He is usually the one who takes on any dangerous tasks.

However, Ivalov's cell phone did not make contact with the outside world because the brigade had already set up jammers in advance.

Of course, it was mainly arranged by the heroes to make the operation go more smoothly.
