"Kaizen, the acquisition of the comic platform on my side is complete. The lead technician is here—you can video call him directly for smoother communication."
"Good."
With a thought, Kaizen pulled out his laptop from the Sumas space.
He initiated the video link.
Soon, the image of a middle-aged man appeared on screen.
At the same time, Kaizen's face popped up on the laptop in front of the technician.
"Kaizen-sama, this is Harold."

"Wendy, it's me."
"Kaizen?"
Wendy's voice was tinged with surprise.
"Where are you, Kaizen? Did you come to the Kingdom of Fiora?"
"No, I'm at Heavens Arena."
"You didn't come?"
Wendy's expression subtly shifted to disappointment.
"Kaizen, when will you have time to come to Fiora? I'm so bored here. All I do is train every day."
She had just finished a training session.
Perched high above the ground, she swung her feet gently in the breeze...

At first, Kaizen didn't think too much of it.
Back when Hunter x Hunter ended, his strength was still just ranked at B-level.
So, the feeling he had at the time made sense.
Kaizen was a B-rank.
His teammates were mostly B or C rank.
It was a reasonable setup.
But once his physical body advanced to A-rank, everything changed.
Kaizen, Natsu, and Sasuke Uchiha—three full-fledged A-ranks.
Chitong, Killer Queen, and the Lantern Ghost were ...

Wing brought Killua and Gon back to the small apartment he was temporarily renting.
Well—calling it an apartment was underselling it.
The space was huge. The central living room had been converted into something resembling a training area. Except for the tatami mats laid out near the window, the room was completely empty.
Two bedrooms.
Two bathrooms.
A kitchen.
And plenty of space.

Ronnel used the clearance rewards he'd earned from upgrading the game to lift the restriction on converting encyclopedia points.
With that, he gained a new, unrestricted type of Nen—a rather gratifying development.
In addition, Ronnel extended branch abilities from [Ability Encyclopedia], similar to how Chrollo developed the [Double Face].
This was his response to the dangerous and unpredictable environments—and negative status effects—he might face on the Dark Contine...

The Ant King stood at the pinnacle of individual strength across the Six Continents. After coming into contact with the King's corpse and absorbing his aura, Ronnel is now the undisputed number one in terms of power.

In short—Ronnel's current Nen kit is as close to all-encompassing as one can get.

Kaizen was a bit surprised when he got the call from Netero.
He hadn't expected things to turn out like this.
"Kaizen, I need a favor."
"You're too polite, Chairman."

He stepped into the elevator.

The elevator began its descent.

Gon's eyes widened a little.
Killua's expression grew more complicated.
Before learning about his relationship with Kaizen, Killua had always seen him as just another contender.
But after finding out they were related, something inside him shifted. For some reason, he didn't want to compare himself to Kaizen anymore.

"Probably not."
A thought came to Kaizen.
Maybe a match between Kastro and Killua could be arranged.
Looking back at the original events, Kaizen realized Killua had barely been pushed during the Hunter Exam or even in Heavens Arena. That lack of pressure had stalled his progress—Gon had started to catch up.
Even when they encountered the Phantom Troupe in Yorknew, the gap was too wide for Killua to grow meaningfully from i...

However, the egg-in-the-pot ceremony also has a time limit. If more than one prince remains after two months, the ritual will automatically fail.
Take Bomber Genthru's Nen ability, Countdown, for example—its power lies in planting explosive Nen markers on a target. But if those markers are removed or the Nen is disrupted before detonation, the technique fails to activate and deals no damage.

Today, there was finally an outcome.

A girl rushed straight toward Kaizen. She had long white hair tied up in a small topknot and wore a white training uniform.
