Chapter 249: Anime Crossover: Pokémon - Starting from Hunter x Hunter Chapter 136

Because "Nasubi Hui Guo Rou" sounds similar to "Twice-Cooked Pork," many anime fans also call him the Twice-Cooked Pork King.

Like many kings, Twice-Cooked Pork longs to accomplish something great.

The only thing he lacks now, and what he desires most, is fame!

Merely being the king of the Kakin Empire and remembered by the Kakin people is not enough!

He wants to make the Kakin Empire one of the V5, or rather, turn the V5 into the V6!

He must also do something capable of shocking the six continents!

After years of planning, he finally set his sights on the Dark Continent!

An unknown, brand-new continent; if he were to make it public, letting all people know of the Dark Continent's existence.

Then his name would surely be etched in the hearts of the world!

That is why he cares so much about this map, even looking at it once every day.

The map itself is not important; it is his reputation.

A table stands before Twice-Cooked Pork, upon which several items are placed.

His squinted eyes, hidden beneath layers of fat, stare fixedly at these items, the greed in them extremely intense.

The next moment.

A very faint sound of a door opening rang out.

A burly man walked in from the doorway.

The burly man stepped lightly across a rug made of top-tier fierce beast fur, his figure faintly leaving behind trails of afterimages.

Although he moved at a seemingly slow speed, in the blink of an eye he appeared beside Twice-Cooked Pork.

This shows that the burly man's strength has reached an extremely high realm.

"What's the matter today?"

The burly man's words sounded like banter between friends.

But from the burly man's deliberately lightened footsteps, it can be seen that in their relationship, the burly man holds the weaker position.

"You're here, Byangde~ Grey."

Twice-Cooked Pork glanced at his ally Byangde and said leisurely.

"Isn't this what you ordered?"

"Then naturally I must come."

Byangde scratched the back of his head, revealing a "honest" smile.

The burly man is none other than the son of the Netero Society president—Byangde.

In the Hunter World, names come before surnames.

The full name of the Netero Society president is "Isaac Netero."

The full name of Byangde is "Byangde Netero."

However, because the Netero Society president's reputation is so outstanding, everyone generally calls him Netero.

Whenever people mention the three words "Netero," they think of the Hunter Association president.

Not his "Byangde Netero."

Therefore, despite having such a powerful father, Byangde is unwilling to reveal to the outside world that he is the son of the Netero Society president.

The Netero Society president also roughly understands Byangde's thoughts and has never actively disclosed information about his son.

So, except for a very few people on the six continents, no one knows that the Netero Society president actually has a son.

Byangde's appearance is quite similar to the Netero Society president; he is simply the Netero of his youth.

The biggest difference is that Byangde has an X-shaped scar on his face.

This scar is very large, covering his entire face; one can imagine he must have endured a very terrifying battle.

But do not be fooled by Byangde's outward appearance of honesty and cheerfulness; behind the scenes, his schemes and plots are quite numerous.

He even fathered children multiple times, all to plan for the future.

Even within the Kakin royal family, there are princes who are his bloodline, convenient for him to profit in future struggles for the Kakin throne.

(This is true; it is information revealed in Hunter manga chapter 401. Everyone can go take a look; Byangde is terrifying.)

"Then I'll just speak briefly~ Grey."

"How much do you know about the Goro Company~ Grey?"

Adding a "Grey" at the end of every sentence is a unique verbal tic of Twice-Cooked Pork.

Byangde raised an eyebrow.

"The Goro Company?"

"I know it is currently the world's largest company, possessing countless subsidiaries and covering numerous industries."

"But among them, the most formidable are the juice industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and the technology industry."

"The juice industry was the direction of the Goro Company's initial development; it rapidly opened the market凭借 its unique effects and excellent-tasting juices."

"As for the pharmaceutical industry, the Goro Company produced various potions with peculiar effects."

"The final technology industry has caused a shock to the entire world."

Byangde spoke gently, obviously having considerable research on the Goro Company; every point he analyzed was spot-on.

Twice-Cooked Pork nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Potions that can instantly heal minor injuries."

"Juices that can cure negative effects such as freezing, burning, sleep, and paralysis..."

"According to analysis, these are very likely just weaker versions; the Goro Company internally also possesses stronger versions."

"Besides this, various signs indicate that the Goro Company is cultivating its own forces."

When the topic turned serious, Hui Guo Rou's verbal tic briefly vanished; his expression turned solemn, yet a flicker of excitement appeared.

"Moreover, Gro Company holds advanced technology and has deeply researched the internet, smartphones, and other devices."

"Gro Company has even used this to sell intelligence."

"These actions have already impacted the development of the Qianer Society—some would say they amount to suppression."

"On one hand, they control vast amounts of Treasures; on the other, they've provoked me, Kai Jin."

"They also lack deep roots; the only noteworthy thing is their boss, Luo Ge, whose strength is formidable."

"I think now you know why I called you here today, right~ Hui?"

Hui Guo Rou stared at the silent Biyangde, his eyes brimming with greed and ferocity.

He wanted to swallow Gro Company whole!

Their displayed healing products, internet technologies…

Awakened Hui Guo Rou's inner greed.

He intended to elevate Kai Jin to V5, making it V6—and before that, the more leverage he held, the better.

Internet technology was something capable of controlling the world's lifeline.

In Hui Guo Rou's view, such an important asset not being held by the state, but by a merchant, was truly a waste.

Under his control, all of it could achieve far more powerful effects!

He would become known to the world as a true sovereign!

Biyangde raised his gaze and said thoughtfully:

"I understand."

"You plan to strike Gro Company, and I will assist you in doing so."

"Exactly~ Hui."

"The Qianer Society is at your disposal. My demand is simple: bring back those critical technologies and manufacturing methods."

"All other obstacles—people or objects—may be eliminated!"

Hui Guo Rou spoke with confidence.

The Qianer Society was an underground force cultivated by the Kai Jin Empire at great cost, rooted across all six continents.

One could say the Qianer Society alone possessed half the power of the Kai Jin Empire.

With Biyangde, a top-tier powerhouse, taking down a fledgling organization and a Wu Dou Assembly champion…

Clearly required little effort.

【So much emphasis on it… no wonder—anyone who sees the resources Gro Company controls would be envious.】

Biyangde thought silently to himself.

He had even handed over command of the Qianer Society—clearly, Hui Guo Rou was determined to seize Gro Company.

"I understand. I'll complete the task as soon as possible."

With that, Biyangde turned and left, silently calculating how much he could gain from this affair.

Behind him.

Hui Guo Rou gazed after Biyangde's retreating figure; he understood far more than he let on.

They called themselves allies, but in truth, two old schemers were each pursuing their own needs.

In just a few words, a war against Gro Company was about to begin!

…

In the digital world.

"So, this is the good news you mentioned?"

Luo Ge said calmly, his tone utterly unruffled, as if he had already known.

Jin shrugged.

"Yeah, isn't this good news?"

"Being named one of the 【Five World Psychic Masters】—that's a decent honor. You should smile."

"Jin, do you think I should smile because I was named one of the 【Five World Psychic Masters】?"

Luo Ge gave Jin a look.

Hearing this, Jin paused and realized it was indeed true.

For others, being named one of the 【Five World Psychic Masters】 was an honor worth boasting about.

But Luo Ge was an exception.

If Jin had to think honestly, he believed only the title 【World's Strongest】 could suit Luo Ge.

Jin scratched his head.

"Well… it's still a title. Just take it."

"Maybe the Old Man, without noticing, will just declare you the 【World's Strongest】 anyway."

Luo Ge nodded.

In truth, both were fine—being named one of the 【Five World Psychic Masters】 would spread his fame once more.

【The Supreme One】 could also enhance his strength.

Of course, 【World's Strongest】 was even better.

"Besides selecting the 【Five World Psychic Masters】, the Old Man created an internal organization called the 【Twelve Earthly Branches】."

"Guess…"

Jin Gang opened his mouth to speak, then suddenly fell silent.

He remembered what had just happened.
