"If you miss me, remember to call me."
Just as he was about to leave, Hisoka turned his head and made a gesture at Oboro, then said goodbye and left.
"..."
After hearing this, Oboro picked up the Joker card and saw a string of numbers written on it.
It was obviously Hisoka's contact information.
"Testing me... Sick hobby."
Oboro clicked his tongue.
In that scene just now, Hisoka didn't really want to fight him... Otherwise, he wouldn't have left the number on the card beforehand.
As if he had guessed his thoughts, he was just doing a wave of testing... As for the reason...
Hisoka probably also thought that for the two of them who had just stepped into the door of Nen users, now was not the best time to fight.
But undoubtedly, he was being targeted by this madman...
From the day Hisoka joined the circus, Oboro knew... that he couldn't escape.
"If you really want to die... I can't help it either..."
Oboro said and threw the playing card away.
He is not afraid of Hisoka... With the system and a wealth of Nen knowledge in reserve, even if his potential is not as good as Hisoka's, Oboro still has the confidence to grow into a strong person...
Most importantly, the world of Hunter is very vast and broad, and the peak he wants to climb... is not just Hisoka's level.
It's just... No one would be happy to be entangled by a madman.
In fact, the longer he knew Hisoka, the more Oboro's opinion of his character changed. At least... he didn't hate him as much as he did at the beginning.
There is a relatively childish side to Hisoka's nature...
"There are still ten years before the main story... that is, the plot unfolds... It's enough for me."
With Hisoka gone, Oboro could finally relax. He lay on the bed, looked at the ceiling, and muttered to himself.
Next... is to find a way to become stronger.
He already had an idea.
First of all, he saved some money from working in the circus these past few months. Since he started performing on stage, Moritonio would distribute the income from each performance, which was quite conscientious.
Although there wasn't much money, it was enough to last for a while if he saved it.
It is worth mentioning that Hisoka paid for this expensive suite, and he didn't spend any money.
Oboro plans to use some time to lay a good foundation first, and put some effort into his amount of aura and his control and mastery of Nen...
Also, the body andMartial Arts, these two cannot be dropped. As the saying goes, a solid tree has flourishing branches. If it were someone else, they might have used the information on the Hunter world to find a way... to further improve as a 'Nen user'.
But Oboro doesn't think so... The foundation determines the upper limit. Only by laying a solid foundation can he become stronger in the future without any worries... Instead of taking big steps, which can easily lead to trouble.
The most typical example is Netero, who single-mindedly pursued the ultimate in Martial Arts when he was young, and wholeheartedly punched 10,000 times in the wild every day... With these preparations, the old man achieved his later fame and strength.
If he doesn't excel in talent, then what Oboro can do is to be down-to-earth and bring out his existing advantages...
The system and knowledge!
After a good night's sleep, Oboro left Glam Gas Land early the next morning with some simple daily necessities and headed to the wilderness mountains.
After searching for a while, he stepped alone into a mountain range that looked like a primeval forest.
He started a devil training!
...
There are no years in the mountains, and no calendar in training.
Oboro roughly divided the daily training plan provided by the system into three parts.
One is to hone the physical body and Martial Arts, and indirectly enhance the physique, stimulating more life energy, which is Nen.
The second is to lay a good foundation for Nen, and temper the spirit before performing the four major principles of Nen.
Point, Tongue, Temper, Release.
Ten (Point): Concentrate the mind, gaze at oneself, and formulate a plan.
Zetsu (Tongue): Transform it into language.
Ren (Temper): Enhance inner will.
Hatsu (Release): Turn ideas into action.
Ordinary Nen users have to go through these steps before practicing the four major principles, and only by mastering these four points can they better use Ten, Zetsu, Ren, and Hatsu.
The last training course was added by Oboro himself.
He wants to observe the 'aura' of every creature in the natural environment, so that he can understand this energy more thoroughly.
And combine his understanding of Nen to conduct some practice.
In this way, day and night alternated.
Oboro sometimes stood under a cliff, frantically hitting the rocks with his bare fists; sometimes he sat cross-legged under a fiercely pressurized waterfall... He fought with beasts and fought with tigers.
When he was hungry, he ate wild fruits or barbecued hunted animals, and when he was thirsty, he drank spring water... The whole body went from being uncomfortable at the beginning to slowly becoming familiar with this rhythm.
He slept with bears in caves; he was accompanied by monkey groups in the forest... From birds and beasts to insects, snakes, rats, and ants, Oboro completely integrated into their living environment and observed their ways of survival.
The smaller the creature, the weaker the amount of aura... But it's not that they don't have it.
Moreover... the 'aura' released invisibly by each creature seems to have different fluctuations and attributes.
This seems to have allowed Oboro to pry open the 'door to a brand new world'.
Half a year later, on a mountain peak, Oboro, who had changed greatly, stood in the wind, overlooking the vast forest.
The clothes on his body had long been rotten... Except for a piece of animal skin around his waist, his whole body was almost naked.
His hair was also scattered over his shoulders... almost like a savage.
Now, his body seems to be a circle smaller than it was half a year ago. The difference is that the muscles in all parts of his body show a granite-like texture and color, and his skin is dark, containing terrifying blood and energy.
"The physical body can still grow further... but... it has temporarily reached a bottleneck. I have to wait for the body to fully mature before talking about it... The amount of aura has increased threefold, which is okay."
"The two Martial Arts have also been mastered..."
"Point, Tongue, Temper, Hatsu... To put it bluntly, it is to increase personal will. Only when the mental power is strong enough can one finely control Nen... To achieve the effects of 'micro-operation' and 'frequency conversion'... The foundation has been practiced almost enough. Next is Ten, Zetsu, Ren, Hatsu..."
Oboro moved his limbs, felt the feedback from his body, and smiled slightly.
He leaped down from the 100-meter-high mountain.
The morning sun shone on Oboro's body.
He sat quietly on a stone surface in the stream. Several birds landed on his head, and various small animals were drinking water by the water source... These wild animals are always very vigilant, but at this moment, they seemed not to notice the existence of humans.
As if in their eyes, the man was an inanimate object, like trees and rocks, harmless.
In the next second, Oboro opened his eyes. The birds on his head were not frightened away, but instead spread their wings and flew into his palm, making chirping sounds...
Oboro smiled slightly.
He changed the fluctuations of the Nen he released, and then raised his hand... and let the birds go.
"I only wanted to practice for half a year, but I didn't expect it to be much longer than planned... A year has passed unknowingly..." He slowly got up and headed to a cave.
He is very familiar with this vast mountain range, just like his own backyard.
Ten, Zetsu, Ren, and Hatsu have all been practiced almost enough.
He is very satisfied.
During this year, the increase in physical strength was not too obvious... The main focus was on studying the use of Nen and mastering Nen techniques.
By changing the amount of aura and the wavelength of Nen, Oboro can almost make all creatures in the forest see him as one of their own... This is a state that requires an extremely thorough understanding of Nen to have!
Ten prevents auras from leaking out and provides a constant, passive defense..
Zetsu hides the user's presence from others by making their aura invisible. It is also used to quickly recover energy.
The further improved Ren increases the user's aura output, making them significantly stronger..
Hatsu allows them to express their aura in special ways, creating their own unique supernatural power.
The final Hatsu can be seen as the culmination of all basic Nen practice.
Oboro was not in a hurry to achieve quick success... He has been focusing on polishing all the basics to ensure that he has no weaknesses. When his control of Nen reached a certain level, Oboro also began to perform more advanced training, such as advance some Nen techniques to use Gyo, In, Shu, En, etc.
But he only made some attempts and explorations for high-level Nen techniques... After all, this long period of seclusion mainly focused on the basics.
After a while, he came to a cave entrance.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the surrounding jungle made rustling sounds... Then, gray-haired wolves appeared and gathered towards him.
This is a wolf pack's base. The wild wolves did not attack Oboro. Instead, after approaching, they rubbed against his body like domestic dogs... like a group of big doggies.
Obviously, they are familiar with Oboro's scent.
A giant wolf with a body like a cow and snow-white fur walked out of the cave, with some scars on its body... This wolf is obviously the leader of the wolf pack! In the world of Hunter, there are magical beasts... The appearance of many creatures is different from that of Earth and extremely dangerous.
The white wolf carried a package in its mouth and handed it to Oboro.
"I'm leaving... I'll come to see you again when I have time."
Oboro smiled and touched the white wolf's head.
"Woo~"
The white wolf called out, seeming a little reluctant.
Oboro didn't stop and turned to leave with his belongings.
With the wolf king's long howl, all the wild wolves also began to make a sound together, as if they were saying goodbye to Oboro.
...
The training time was much longer than expected.
Originally, Oboro thought of secluding himself in the mountains for a year, but he didn't expect to extend it to a year and a half.
Compared to when he entered the mountains, his appearance hasn't changed much. The main thing is that his temperament has transformed...
