Reincarnation Paradise Park-Chapter 670 - 64: Open Fire!
It turns out, Su Xiao’s choice was very correct. Although the duration of the Counter Shield was greatly reduced, it caught the Leader and Ilmi off guard.
Whoosh~
A few large-headed needles wrapped in Telekinesis Energy shot forward, and Su Xiao swung his knife to deflect them.
Clang, clang, clang...
Clearly, they were not large in size, but the force was no less than that of an ordinary sniper bullet.
"What’s going on? It was the same gravity just now, and now he’s treading on air."
Ilmi was puzzled. Just when he kicked Su Xiao into the air and landed, he sensed that the Counter Shield shared the same gravity with Su Xiao.
Chrollo stretched his back, and the wound on his back was as fierce as a monster’s gaping maw.
The ’Thief’s Secret Book’ appeared in Chrollo’s hand, and he ignored the wounds on his back. Although he was losing blood heavily, among the abilities he had stolen, there was no Recovery Ability.
Flipping the pages, they finally stopped on one. On that page was a photo of a psychic User and information about their Nen ability.
In the photo, there was a young woman, around the age of twenty.
Lily
Age: 21
Manipulation System Nen Ability User.
Ability: Controller’s Hope (Instant move)
Original holder: Undeceased.
...
This is Chrollo’s ability: Thief’s Secret Book, which allows him to steal others’ Nen abilities, but it’s not casually done. It requires meeting four conditions.
1: Witnessing the opponent’s Nen ability with their own eyes.
2: Asking the opponent questions related to their Nen ability and receiving a response.
3: Letting the opponent place their hand on the hand imprint on the book cover.
4: All above conditions must be completed within an hour.
Once these steps are completed, Chrollo can successfully steal the other’s Nen ability. However, to use these stolen abilities, he must hold the Thief’s Secret Book and turn to the corresponding page.
Chrollo never considered stealing Su Xiao’s ability. Even though stealing others’ Nen abilities seems powerful, it actually has too many limitations. Trying to meet the conditions for stealing during an intense battle is like a fairy tale, unless the opponent is very foolish.
Given Su Xiao’s personality of using his hands instead of talking nonsense, Chrollo couldn’t possibly steal his abilities. Moreover, Su Xiao’s abilities are not Nen abilities, which is a different system from Chrollo. It’s simply out of the question for him to be able to steal them.
Chrollo held the ’Thief’s Secret Book’ in his right hand, and his left hand had a poisonous, peculiar dagger.
"Chrollo, I’ll try to suppress him in a moment and aim to restrain him for a brief moment. Then, go all-out to attack, don’t worry about hitting me, it’s fine."
After realizing Chrollo was injured, Ilmi knew he couldn’t afford to delay any longer. Chrollo was his employer, and his death would mean the cancellation of the commission; there would be no reason to fight Su Xiao. However, Ilmi still wanted a match with such a strong adversary like Su Xiao.
"Okay."
Chrollo slowly backed off; at this point, he held both Instant move and a Highly Poisonous Dagger, making it entirely possible for him to find an opportunity to strike fatally.
Standing mid-air, Su Xiao did not make a move; he was waiting for the surrounding Counter Shields to gather around.
He surveyed the few segments of Counter Shields around him, preparing himself to fight to the death with Chrollo.
Seemingly perceiving Su Xiao’s strategy, Ilmi charged forward head-on.
Facing Ilmi who rushed head-on, Su Xiao could only leap off the Counter Shield. The opportunity to wound Chrollo was when he was caught off guard, and now both were prepared, rendering even aerial multi-jumping ineffective.
Uttering no unnecessary words, Su Xiao and Ilmi engaged in a fierce battle.
Ilmi’s hands were covered with large amounts of Nen, and he was using the Nen ability of ’Harden’, making his hands stronger than metal.
Ilmi’s hand thrust towards Su Xiao’s face, and Su Xiao tilted his head to evade, leaving a bloody mark on his cheek.
As Ilmi’s hand reached him, Su Xiao delivered an upward slash; if Ilmi continued his attack, his arm would absolutely be sliced off. Only his palm was tough, not his entire arm.
In a whooshing sound, the long knife slashed across Ilmi’s palm.
Crimson blood dropped from Ilmi’s fingertips; facing the erosion of Blue Steel Shadow, Ilmi did not even frown.
"Seems like I don’t need to worry about being chopped off at the hands."
Ilmi flicked the blood off his hand; upon closer inspection, it was seen that his palm had only been slashed on the surface.
Most members of the Zoldyck Family fight unarmed, so from a young age, they are deliberately trained by their elders to harden their hands.
For a top-level assassin, the best weapons aren’t guns or cold weapons, but hands, because hands are always with you and do not draw attention.
After training since childhood, and the effect of the Nen ability ’Harden’, at this point, even Su Xiao could not sever Ilmi’s hands.
Slashing at Ilmi’s palm felt like cutting through a piece of extremely tough rubber.
Realizing Su Xiao couldn’t cut off his hands, Ilmi’s attacks became bolder, with shadows appearing in his double-handed assaults.
Su Xiao and Ilmi fought to the death, the streets shattered in large pieces from the impact of their battle.
The floating Counter Shields gradually disappeared, the minute ran out. Though Su Xiao couldn’t say he won the bet, he didn’t lose either; this was apparent from the vicious wound on Chrollo’s back.
Bang, bang,
Su Xiao and Ilmi were locked in combat, with Blade Aura and large needles spraying everywhere. In Su Xiao’s understanding, Ilmi was strong, but after clashing with him, he realized Ilmi was stronger than expected.
Clang!
Su Xiao held the Dragon Slayer Slash horizontally in front, and Ilmi’s palm-knife struck the blade.
"How much longer?"
Su Xiao muttered something, not addressing anyone in particular.
"Hm?"
Ilmi looked puzzled at Su Xiao, then thought of something and astonishingly tried to grab onto the Dragon Slayer Slash with his bare hands.
Su Xiao’s first thought was this guy was not concerned about his hands anymore. Although his hands could withstand slashing from the Dragon Slayer Slash, grabbing it unarmed was a different matter.
With a swift noise, Su Xiao fully exerted strength to yank the Dragon Slayer Slash, the blade tearing through Ilmi’s flesh and starting to sever his bones.
Bang!
A manhole cover beside Su Xiao flew up; seeing this, his pupils contracted.
Roar.
The low growl of a wild beast sounded as a few highly muscled large dogs dashed out from the sewer.
These large dogs had large-headed needles stuck at the back of their skulls, their bodies covered in Nen. No doubt, they were being controlled by Ilmi; after all, he was an Operation System Nen Ability User.
Several bloodthirsty maws clamped onto Su Xiao’s arm, torso, and lower leg. With Ilmi grasping the blade of the Dragon Slayer Slash, Su Xiao couldn’t move.
A shadow appeared suddenly behind Su Xiao, it was Chrollo.
Splat.
An intense burning pain erupted as Chrollo’s peculiar dagger pierced Su Xiao from behind, aiming for his heart. In the nick of time, Su Xiao managed a slight dodge, preventing the wide-bladed dagger from penetrating his heart.
Three people lined up in a straight line, Su Xiao faced Ilmi, and Chrollo stood behind Su Xiao.
At this moment, Ilmi suddenly noticed Su Xiao was smiling, a smile he would never forget, or rather, it sent chills down his spine.
"Back off quickly!"
Ilmi lost his usual composure and shouted, but it was already too late.
"Life and death are fate, fire!"
