Rather than simply walking away from the region, Leo claimed it outright.

This had always been part of his broader strategy.

If the goal was to crush corporate colonialism, then one had to amass power that could rival the megacorps—and in the world of 2077, the only force capable of matching corporate influence was that of a nation.

Besides, this wasn’t territory seized from government forces. It had been ta...

Killua lowered his head, and Gon did the same.

Although Ron had addressed Killua, Gon felt the words applied to him as well. The two of them had already been studying Nen for quite some time—nearly half a year at Heaven’s Arena, another half year inside Greed Island, plus the events in Yorknew, their return to Whale Island, and their journey with Kite. Piece by piece, quite a long time had passed.

Moreover, both Killua and Gon had received the best possible ...

Colt nodded.

“Go ahead. No matter what it is, as long as I know it, I’ll tell you.”

“Good.”

The next moment, Netero no longer restrained his aura. Instead, he released it in full.

“Ren!”

His aura surged to its maximum, overflowing with such force that the entire surrounding area was enveloped in his terrifying presence.

Knov’s expression grew serious, yet when he glanced at the nearby Chimera Ants, a faint pride appeared o...

The appearance of Susanoo shocked many, including Nii Yugito herself. Wide-eyed, she stared at the towering green figure clad in tengu armor and wielding its spiral blade like a war god standing among the mountains and forests.

She had never once heard of such a thing, much less seen it. Fortunately, she was not fighting alone. She had the aid of the Two-Tails, a living encyclopedia that had survived for a thousand years....

To his surprise, Leo’s people did not stop him.

Others, seeing this, began to build up their courage.

They watched their companion devour the food ravenously, and could no longer hold back their own hunger, saliva pooling in their mouths.

At last, a second laborer moved.

And with a second, there would naturally be a third, a fourth.

Hesitation faded.

Thinking ceased.

Killua’s expression shifted.

“Ron-nii, did something happen?”

“You don’t need to know the details,” Ron said. “Just focus on keeping yourselves safe. If you encounter an enemy too dangerous to handle, then contact me.”

The strength of the Chimera Ants was enough to pose a lethal threat to Killua, and the other members of the Zoldyck family were not around. Ron was the only elder nearby, and regardless of anything else, he still had to ensur...

The medical team followed closely behind.

Ron surveyed the surroundings. Not many Chimera Ants remained here; most had already departed. Among those who had left were division leaders, squad captains, and foot soldiers.

According to what was known, division leaders, squad captains, and even foot soldiers all possessed reproductive ability, but while the Queen was alive, they had been bound by her command. She had forbidden them from reproducing independently. No...

Hyūga Hiashi leaned against the trunk of a tree. Without someone to support him, he could not even stand, so he could only sit propped against it, keeping his gaze fixed on the battle unfolding before him between Might Guy and Darui—or more precisely, between Guy and Darui together with over a dozen elite Kumogakure shinobi.

Not all of those Cloud-nin were Jōnin.

If they had been placed in minor villages such as ...

After hearing Netero’s explanation, Ron finally pieced everything together.

On the surface, the Chimera Ant incident appeared to be a disaster originating from the Dark Continent, but in reality it was a deliberate design by humans. Based on Oster’s experiments, they had developed the Ant Queen. From beginning to end, the entire affair had been under human control. The Queen’s continued presence in NGL was nothing more than a choice made by NGL’s ruling elite....

“So the entire matter was engineered by humans?”

“After obtaining Oster’s research data, further studies were conducted, which produced results proving the Chimera Ants could be modified. Experiments began immediately. The choice to use NGL as the site belonged to NGL itself and fate, even though it meant the deaths of countless innocents. That was the decision made by NGL’s leadership. But for ordinary citizens of NGL, it is undeniably unfair.”

Darui’s left arm bone was fractured.

That was the conclusion he reached after checking himself. It was hardly good news. An arm that could not weave hand seals properly meant a severe drop in combat ability. For a shinobi, the speed of hand seals was crucial. Even if he clapped his hands together and called out a jutsu, a fractured arm would still send waves of pain through him and potentially distract him for a fraction...

Soon after, Leo reached out to Meredith again and purchased a Medusa.

The Medusa was an upgraded version of the Manticore, and was currently in service with Militech’s internal security forces—a heavily armored military-grade VTOL ( Vertical Take-Off and Landing).

By regulation, the Medusa was not to be sold on the private market like the Manticore.

At first, Meredith had no intention of selling it.

The same logic applied here.

The Shadow special forces unit was indeed the pride of Texas, but even Lister had to admit: a force of just 1,500 was far too small.

If they ever found themselves at war again with the New United States, and if combat losses mounted faster than replacements could be trained, they would inevitably fall into a massive disadvantage.

But if the Combat Assist Chip were available, the enti...

“Are you speaking for yourself, or can you represent all the Chimera Ants?”

“I…” Colt hesitated for a moment. “I can only speak for myself. The other division leaders won’t obey my orders. But I can do everything I can to provide you with assistance. If the Queen really dies, then the division leaders and even the squad captains will no longer be bound. They will surely spread across the world, building their own nations and breeding their own offspring....

Neferpitou knew that Ron and the others were in that direction, and also knew that among Nen users, they were among the very best. As for taste, there would be no prey more delicious than them—at least within the range of NGL, none could compare.

But the King had only just been born. Neferpitou understood that the King was strong, yet also understood how strange and unpredictable Nen abilities could be. Under the current circumstances, Neferpitou judged that taking ...

“Damn it! This is bad!”

Sweat streamed down Nara Shiosui’s forehead. His mind was running at full speed, boiling as though it were a pot of water on the verge of spilling over, his very brain matter threatening to melt from the heat. As their forces pulled back again and again, the situation on the battlefield grew increasingly grim. The shinobi of Kumogakure were not simply muscle-brained brutes.

At that moment, three figures slowly approached.

The Ant King lifted his head to look, and all the division leaders turned their gazes as well.

Neferpitou, Menthuthuyoupi, and Shaiapouf walked forward until they stood before the King. All three dropped to one knee, their attitudes filled with deep reverence—entirely different from how they had addressed the Queen.

“Respected King,” they said. “We have already prepared your meal. From this moment on...

In an instant, the entire nest of Chimera Ants—division leaders, squad captains, and soldiers alike—changed expression.

The cry was unmistakable. They knew that voice all too well.

It was the Queen.

But within the nest, with the Royal Guard present, how could the Queen possibly be crying out in such agony? There had been no signal of any intruder, no sign that humans had infiltrated.

Panic spread among the Ants. Until the King was born, the Queen...

Darui fixed his gaze on Hyūga Hiashi, standing on the ground ahead, observing him for about five seconds before springing forward with a great leap. He raised his blade high, arcs of lightning visibly flashing around his legs. The Lightning Release body activation technique was not something every shinobi of Kumogakure could master, even though Lightning Release specialists were most numerous there. But for those who could wiel...

As someone deeply embedded in weapons procurement, Lister immediately identified the firearm Leo had produced.

Without hesitation, he responded with practiced precision.

“That's Kang Tao’s Yinglong. The finest smartgun on the market right now. Trauma Team uses this model as their standard issue.”

“What makes it exceptional is its fully automatic loading system, ultra-sensitive radar suite, and state-of-t...

Then, her expression froze.

Because she saw Leo draw a revolver from his holster and fire two rounds each into the heads of Marcus Masafusa and Jun Hanakami.

These two senior members of the Tyger Claws, who just a moment ago had been immersed in the world of braindance, had their skulls burst open the next second.

They died right there, slumped on the sofas in the meeting room.

Meanwhile, in the United States of Saherta, inside a biological laboratory, the V5 envoys had gathered. Pariston still occupied one of the seats.

“You won.”

Knuckle was a little dazed.

But Killua and Gon showed no signs of joy on their faces.

“No, we didn’t win,” Killua said. “What we wanted wasn’t just to beat you—it was to have the strength to defeat you head-on. Right now, Gon and I still haven’t done that. We only brought you down because the two of us worked together. And you didn’t even use your ability. At this level, if we joined the operation against the Chimera Ants, we...

“Lord Hiashi, there is no way we can hold back the Cloud-nin on our own.”

The man who spoke had graying hair and a face etched with deep lines of worry, the wrinkles on his forehead bunched so tightly they could crush a mosquito. He looked at Hyūga Hiashi with a pleading expression, his posture utterly humble, begging the clan head to show mercy and grant the shinobi of the Hidden Hot Springs a way out.

“Dodai, make the preparations.”

A said suddenly.

Preparations? For what? Dodai felt a sinking unease in his chest. Both the Third and the Fourth Raikage, father and son, possessed overwhelming charisma that drew the village’s finest shinobi to serve them. Yet they also shared the same flaw—reckless willfulness. From time to time, both had made decisions that gave their subordinates endless headaches.

Ron sent the severely wounded cockroach Chimera Ant into Knov’s spatial portal.

Knov’s brow furrowed slightly. “This might disappoint Chairman Netero.”

In truth, Netero did feel a touch of disappointment when he saw the captured Chimera Ant.

“Half-dead already? That takes all the fun out of it. Ron really doesn’t know how to hold back.”

Shaking his head, Netero stepped toward the cockroach Ant.

Two squad captains appeared—one with the form of a rabbit, the other resembling a loach. With a coach like Ant Division Leader leading them.

Ron gave a thought. “Yuzuru Yamai.”

In the next moment, Yuzuru Yamai appeared at his side.

“Solo.”

Her voice drifted toward the three Chimera Ants, immediately affecting them.

Ron moved behind the rabbit Chimera Ant. With one hand he seized the back of its neck. The Ant cried out in pain and sna...

Several days later, Judy finally called.

“Leo, Maiko called. She wants to meet beneath the Cloud supertower before sundown. You’ll be there, right?”

“Of course.”

After hanging up, Leo set out for the meeting location while calling both Susie and Wakako Okada, telling them to get ready.

By the time Leo arrived at the base of the supertower, both Susie and Wakako had replied.

The side effects were significant.

However, Leo had a plan more complete and refined than the one Maiko Maeda had proposed—there would be no issues.

"Leo, I know you don’t usually help people without compensation. I get that. So, I’ll pay you for this."

"Alright. Thanks."

"No, it’s me who should be thanking you. Are you staying a while longer? Or heading back? If you are, you can ride with me."

“Ron is approaching,” Morel noted. The moment he sensed Ron drawing near, he immediately relayed the message to Netero.
