Chapter 215: Anime Crossover: Pokémon - Starting from Hunter x Hunter Chapter 114

He glanced at the fruit, which glowed like a light bulb, and directly put it into his pocket to keep it safe.

"So, what do you plan to do?"

"This tree probably isn't that easy to keep alive, right?"

Gon was a bit skeptical that the tree would still work, as it was common knowledge that 【Hope】 was difficult to cultivate.

In history, someone had luckily brought back a valuable alchemical plant from the Dark Continent, only to end up with it withering away.

The conditions for 【Hope】's birth and growth were extremely harsh, and could hardly be replicated across the six continents.

"I'll try first; perhaps I'll succeed."

Luo Ge did not reveal everything.

He certainly wouldn't speak of the growth conditions for the 【Bai Jing Tree】.

Holding a sword, Luo Ge casually swung a few times, carving several marks into the soil around the Bai Jing Tree, then pried it up with his hand.

The Bai Jing Tree, along with the soil, separated from the ground beneath.

This would make operations later more convenient.

"And then... do you plan to carry it on your back?"

"No, I have a better option."

Luo Ge clapped his hands, flipped his right hand, and a gorgeous card suddenly appeared in his palm, as if performing magic tricks.

"Now is the time for it to play its role!"

Gon was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and couldn't help but laugh: "It feels like you've calculated everything."

"A card you just obtained, and you're already putting it to use so quickly."

"With this thing, regardless of whether the tree survives, at least you won't have to carry it out."

Following his gaze, the card in Luo Ge's hand was unmistakably an SS-rank card.

【One Tsubo of Dense Forest】!

Inside was a vast forest known as the Garden of the Mountain God, including various creatures that inhabited only this forest.

A single location was naturally not worth being classified as an SS-rank card.

【Aura of the Great Angel】, which could heal extreme critical injuries, incurable diseases, and even pull someone back from the brink of death as long as they had a breath left,

was merely SS-rank.

【One Tsubo of Dense Forest】 could serve as an SS-rank card because it was a Nen space!

Its essence was an alternate dimension created by Nen.

Nobu's Four-Dimensional Apartment and Shizuku's Travel Bag could both create Nen spaces.

With 【One Tsubo of Dense Forest】, Luo Ge effectively carried a space with him at all times.

Whether for storing items or serving as a shelter, it could be done; it was very convenient.

Luo Ge infused Nen energy into it; immediately, the card erupted with brilliant white light, and both he and the tree vanished.

Only Gon and Gengar were left behind, staring at each other with wide eyes.

Gon scratched his head, pulled another piece of fruit from his pocket.

"Uh..."

"Want some fruit?"

"Geh-gei..."

Gengar looked at Gon's rather "untidy" clothes, then at the fruit that looked very clean on the surface, and still shook its head.

Choosing to "politely decline".

Although it was a "ghost," it didn't eat just anything.

Gon shrugged.

Well, now even a ghost wouldn't want to eat it.

In the vast forest,

Luo Ge suddenly appeared, with the excavated Bai Jing Tree beside him.

He raised his gaze.

Surrounding him was a huge expanse of dense forest stretching to the horizon, everywhere brimming with the life-giving breath of sunlight, and the air was exceptionally fresh.

It felt that living in such a place for a long time would extend one's lifespan, at least a little.

A place like this was extremely suitable for planting flowers, grass, and trees.

Using it to grow fruit trees would be a waste.

Luo Ge planned to use 【One Tsubo of Dense Forest】 to cultivate plant-type 【Hope】, making it his private cultivation ground.

The importance of something like the 【Bai Jing Tree】 far exceeded that of fruit trees; keeping it in a portable Nen space was the only safe option.

He reined in his thoughts.

Luo Ge noticed that in just this short while, the Bai Jing Tree's light had dimmed slightly, giving a sensation of lacking energy.

If some more time passed, perhaps both the tree and the fruit would wither together.

At the thought, a dozen or so streaks of white light flashed into existence simultaneously.

One after another, gloomy and sinister 【Life and Death Shadows】 surrounded the 【Bai Jing Tree】, emitting wisps of ink-black aura from their bodies.

With their appearance, the temperature in the air seemed to drop several degrees instantly, making the environment considerably more eerie.

Beasts in the distance seemed to sense something and moved away in the opposite direction, unwilling to approach.

Luo Ge paid them no mind.

He had matters to attend to now; later, he would find some time to check on the various beasts within.

It is said that each possesses divine abilities, not in the least inferior to the other cards.

The 【Life and Death Shadows】 buried the Bai Jing tree into the earth, then stationed themselves around it without moving far away.

At the same time, the condition of the Bai Jing tree was continuously improving; streaks of flowing light appeared upon it, manifesting vigorous vitality.

Luo Ge drew his gaze back, shifted his thought, and his body returned once more to the real world.

Jin Gang finished the fruit in his hand, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Is it handled?"

"It's passable."

Luo Ge's tone was flat, revealing nothing of whether it was good or bad; next, he turned his gaze toward the high platform on the other side.

Following the steps upward, two large doors engraved with intricate patterns came into view.

Neither of the two had mentioned it earlier because it was obvious that something was amiss inside, and there would be danger to some degree.

Therefore, they needed to clean up matters outside first before considering whether to try opening that door.

Jin Gang looked over: "Do you think we should open that door?"

"If you ask me... we should still try opening it."

"Perhaps there will be better rewards inside."

But there might also be entities harder to deal with.

The last sentence was a shared thought between the two.

Yet, as top existences of the Six Continents, they still had some confidence to some degree.

Do not look at how Jin Gang was at a loss when facing the 【Life and Death Shadows】 just now.

He might not be able to solve some problems, but escaping to preserve his life is absolutely within his reach.

Who does not have a few trump cards for preserving their life?

Luo Ge, needless to say.

He has the Nightmare Pokémon Darkrai as a "bodyguard"!
