Chapter 252: Anime Crossover: Pokémon - Starting from Hunter x Hunter, Chapter 138

Luo Ge's eyes flickered slightly; he suppressed the excitement in his heart and began to examine it slowly.

As the name implies, this machine can resurrect Pokémon from Pokémon fossils.

His 【Secret Amber】 finally has a place to be used!

If he remembered correctly, the 【Secret Amber】 could resurrect an ancient Pokémon—the Fossilized Dragon!

Luo Ge made up his mind; once he returned, he would take out the machine to resurrect a Pokémon.

The second offensive pill has an effect similar to 【Power Enhancement】, but the enhancement effect is far stronger.

One offensive pill is worth two Power Enhancements.

The third is the 【King's Badge】, whose effect is a probability to make the enemy flinch, while also allowing specific Pokémon to evolve.

Luo Ge paid more attention to the latter effect of this item.

A Slowpoke carrying the King's Badge can evolve into Slowking via trade.

If he has the chance to catch a Slowpoke in the future, he will use this item to evolve it into a Slowking.

The last one is the Ability 【Victory Star】.

This Ability is no simple matter; it is the exclusive Ability of the Mythical Pokémon Victini.

Victini is even called the 【Victory Pokémon】; rumors say that as long as one receives its favor, they will achieve victory time and time again.

Besides the normal effect of increasing accuracy, this Ability has one other miraculous aspect.

Victini has a chance to secretly bless him!

As long as one is blessed, that battle is certain to be won!

This is an effect related to luck.

Time passed, drop by drop.

The number of people on the field grew larger and larger.

Until the prescribed time, the secretary Doumianren beside Netero stepped forward and spoke:

"Everyone, please be quiet."

"This meeting officially begins now."

Doumianren's words seemed to possess a certain magic, causing a large crowd to shut their mouths and listen quietly to Netero's next speech.

Netero wore a smile on his face and stroked his long beard.

"I have gathered everyone here today; I believe everyone has already heard the main reason."

"This meeting has two matters. The first is that I intend to form a new team within the Association."

"It is named the 【Twelve Earthly Branches】, named after the Zodiac animals."

"Every member of the 【Twelve Earthly Branches】 is an outstanding representative in a different field."

"Organizing and planning them uniformly is beneficial for the Association's future coordinated planning and development."

Upon hearing this, the crowd nodded one after another, indicating this was a very reasonable approach; some even intended to applaud Netero.

"Ho ho ho ho, of course, it is absolutely not that I want to find a few people to be my sparring partners."

Netero laughed heartily, causing many who had been ready to applaud just a second ago to be utterly shocked.

"Next, let me introduce everyone to this person; this is Pariston, who will serve as the Rat of the Twelve Earthly Branches."

Upon hearing this, Pariston, who stood beside him wearing an orange suit and displaying a warm smile, stood up and greeted the crowd.

However, even though the number of people was large, Pariston's gaze remained fixed on Luo Ge, whose expression was calm.

【That Luo Ge from back then...】

He still remembered Luo Ge vividly.

He had not forgotten that day at the Lierenxie Society, where Luo Ge took out a rope and simply leaped over the maze.

From that moment on, he felt this person was not simple and felt a curiosity arise.

As expected.

After that, Luo Ge's reputation grew louder and louder, until now he could be said to be known by everyone across the Six Continents.

The boss of the Gelo Company.

The Wu Dou Assembly Champion.

These two titles had already taken deep root in people's hearts.

He was quite curious: if he made Luo Ge dislike him, how much pleasure would it bring him?

Pariston was different from ordinary people.

Ordinary people feel happiness when conveying love or when being loved.

But the more he encountered cute or interesting things, the more he wanted to destroy them.

When others conveyed goodwill to him, he did not feel happy.

Only when others felt disgust toward him did he experience a happy mood.

This was also the reason why most people familiar with him in the original work greatly disliked him.

Thinking of this, the corner of Pariston's mouth curled slightly, then quickly returned to normal.

Making himself feel pleasure is not a bad thing, but one must also assess one's own strength.

Pariston was keen on acquiring information, especially paying extra attention to certain people.

So he knew clearly that Luo Ge's strength was even greater than what was displayed before the public.

If he provoked Luo Ge's displeasure, it was not impossible that he would die right there on the spot.

That would be a tragedy.

Netero glanced at the seated Pariston, said nothing more, and continued speaking:

"The second, the Ox, Mizastone."

"..."

"The fourth, the Rabbit, Piyon."

Piyon, dressed in pink, stood up and nodded slightly toward Luo Ge's direction.

Due to the large number of people, her gesture caused no surprise from anyone.

When it was the Snake's turn, Ge Er, she repeated the same action.

Luo Ge simply watched silently, making no sign, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.

Even Niteluo could not have imagined that among the twelve people he had carefully selected, two had been Luo Ge's people from start to finish.

Originally, Piyon and the Snake joined the Luo Ge Company first, then the two of them, following Luo Ge's orders, joined the Lierenxie Society.

Then the general direction proceeded along the normal track, logically following to become members of the Twelve Earthly Branches.

"The last one, the Boar, Jin Fuli Shi."

"These twelve are the Twelve Earthly Branches members I have selected; I do not know if anyone has doubts, you may all raise them."

Niteluo smiled cheerfully, looking just like an old man chatting about daily life.

He was also the type who enjoyed a spectacle and didn't mind if things got messy; if anyone really raised something, he would be happy to see it.

The crowd fell silent; on the field, a needle dropping could be heard.

Many eyes gathered on that slouching figure leaning back in a chair, yawning directly—the "beggar."

Eyelids twitched wildly.

Could such a person really become one of the 【Twelve Earthly Branches】?

After all, according to President Niteluo's meaning, the future Twelve Earthly Branches would become the face of the Lierenxie Society.

Their fame would likely rank only below a few high-level executives.

Was such a position really suitable for someone like Jin to sit in?

After a pause of a few breaths, someone finally raised a hand to signal.

"President, is it really good to let Jin sit in such an important position?"

"Yes, yes, that bastard Jin is not worthy at all."

Jin picked his ear with his little finger, wearing a very impatient expression.

"Worthy? Of course I am worthy."

"If I am not worthy, then are you worthy?"

"If you have the ability, come and fight; whoever can defeat me, this position will be given to them..."

After the words ended, the field returned to silence.

The few who had spoken earlier closed their mouths and remained silent, interpreting what 【Silence is Gold】 means.

Although they despised Jin's conduct, it could not be denied that this person's strength was indeed ridiculously powerful.

Perhaps someone could defeat Jin, but they admitted they could not; going up would only be asking for trouble.

"Tsk."

Jin curled his lip.

If those people dared to really come up and fight him, he would even look at them with a bit more respect.

Standing inside the crowd and saying a few cold words—who can't do that?

【The Boar Jin Fuli Shi... looks like a guy who is not easy to get along with】

【I probably won't like working with him】

Qiduo, the Dog wearing large round glasses and dressed entirely in green, glanced at Jin, who had stopped speaking, and secretly assessed him.

Qiduo, the Dog, was considered the most normal smart person among the Twelve Earthly Branches, often serving as the Twelve Earthly Branches' brain to devise strategies.

The reason he was called the most normal smart person was because Jin and Pariston were excluded from here.

【Except for Jin... it is this Pariston】

Qiduo secretly sized up Pariston.

Although this person always showed a smile, appearing very enthusiastic and hospitable, she always felt that smiling face was a bit deserving of a punch.

Niteluo looked left and right a few times, saw that no one else spoke, and then said:

"Since no one has objections, then the 【Twelve Earthly Branches】 are settled like this."

"Next, I will announce the candidates for the 【World's Top Five Nen Users】."

Here comes the main point!

Countless people focused all their attention, waiting for Niteluo to speak, curious about which five people would receive this honor.

"First, I must emphasize that the 【World's Top Five Nen Users】 is just a title, indicating that these five people possess high strength."

"It does not mean that these five people are definitely the top five in the world, and this list is also my own subjective conjecture."

Niteluo continued: "First, the first one, I shamelessly take it myself."

No one raised doubts.

As the well-known 【World's Strongest】, it was very reasonable for Niteluo to occupy one position among these five people.

"The second person is Jeno Zoldyck beside me."

Looking in that direction.

Jeno was sitting on Niteluo's other side, calmly sipping tea, with a calm expression.

His angular face was slightly thin, a pair of eyes were bright and spirited, and he had two white beards hanging down.

Wearing the special cultivation practice clothes day after day, it seemed Jeno was dressed this way wherever he was.

What attracted others' gaze the most were the four large characters on his chest: 【One Kill Per Day】.
