Chapter 33
The Real and Fake Illumi!

Clearly, the A-level blind box from Chrollo had significantly boosted Bai Ze's strength.

Unlocking all the troop types of the Shadow Army alone was enough to be terrifying.

After all, the Shadow Army boasts nine battle groups.

The Ninja Khan (NinjaKhan, Ghost Shadow).

The Razor Khan (RazorKhan, Claw Shadow).

The Bat Khan (BatKhan, Flying Shadow).

The Sumo Khan (SumoKhan, Giant Shadow).

The Samurai Khan (SamuraiKhan, Helmet Shadow).

The Squid Khan (SquidKhan, Soft Shadow).

The Mini Khan (MiniKhan, Shadow Eater).

The Crab Khan (CrabKhan, Claw Shadow).

The Mantis Khan (MantisKhan, Scythe Shadow).

Once all troop types were collected.

Bai Ze's Shadow Army had archers, melee, ranged, assassins, and tanks, making their strength increase significantly.

Even more terrifyingly, these Shadow Army members were immortal.

With the Shadow Army fully unlocked.

And with Lal·Milch unlocked.

The strength of the Vongola Family also increased significantly.

Under the constraints and covenants, the stronger the Vongola Family became, the stronger Bai Ze would naturally become.

After this battle, the growth of his Aura was exceptionally noticeable.

Compared to his Aura before fighting Chrollo, it had increased tremendously.

But it was still too weak, after all, the Rainbow Curse still sealed him.

With his weak Aura, he couldn't deal fatal damage.

Especially against a Nen user like Chrollo.

Chrollo constantly had a high-intensity "Ken" providing full body protection.

Normal attacks couldn't break through Chrollo's defense, let alone kill him.

As the Rainbow Curse gradually unsealed, there was no doubt that once the seal was completely lifted, Bai Ze's Aura would experience a breakthrough, reaching a new height.

At that time, he would be reborn and ascend to the peak.

Then taking care of another Chrollo would be easy.

Finding a bunch of "gay-boys" to gang up on Chrollo would be effortless.

With this thought, Bai Ze realized.

Nen user battles were actually heavily related to Aura.

Famous Nen user, the Hairspray Hand, once said: Nen user battles are a clash of Aura.

Like the King of Ants, he had no flashy skills, yet he was incredibly strong.

Although, in the end, he was still blown up by "Poverty's Rose".

This was why Bai Ze was frantically training while also frantically making money.

After all, this was the world of Hunter x Hunter.

In this world, human power isn't the pinnacle, otherwise, the V5 wouldn't be the rulers of the world.

Just like there's "Poverty's Rose," there's also "Wealth's Rose."

One "Poverty's Rose" could send the King of Ants directly to the cycle of reincarnation.

Then, what about even more powerful bombs?

They could probably destroy a country directly.

This was also possible in the world of Hunter x Hunter.

Times are changing, Bai Ze's thinking wasn't as stubborn as Netero, who stuck to the spirit of martial arts, seeking stronger opponents.

When necessary, Bai Ze wouldn't hesitate to throw a "Poverty's Rose" to solve problems.

Bringing the focus back to reality, Amamiya said from the side.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Bai Ze shook the phone in his hand and said, "Take the photos, videos, and the Clown Murderer's hair on your phone, go to the Police Department and the Hunter Association branch to claim the reward."

He remembered the almost 60 million Jen that was the reward.

With this startup capital, plus the 1 billion Jen he scammed from the Black Hand.

He could then go to the Heaven Arena to cause a ruckus.

Let I-Ping, Lambo, and Skull participate in the tournament.

In the eyes of ordinary people, they were just kids.

Bai Ze could take advantage of this, bet heavily on I-Ping, Lambo, and Skull, and make a fortune!!!

Just as Bai Ze and the others went to claim the reward.

On the other side.

At Chrollo's location.

After Bai Ze left.

Chrollo was still lost in the illusion created by Kulolom.

The first path of the Six Paths of Reincarnation: Hell Path, had directly fooled Chrollo.

In Chrollo's vision, Bai Ze and Amamiya hadn't left.

After the smoke from the explosion cleared, he was still confronting Bai Ze.

Staring at Bai Ze in front of him, Chrollo held a full deck of playing cards in his hands.

He also released a more terrifying aura, this aura filled with extreme malice, like black mist, permeating the entire area.

It caused the air around him to drop by a dozen degrees, cold like frost.

Licking his lips, Chrollo had a greedy look on his face.

"Illumi, you are truly amazing~"

『Bai Ze told Chrollo his name was Illumi, so Chrollo mistakenly thought Bai Ze was Illumi』

"I really want to eat you now!"

"You're the most perfect fruit."

"Unfortunately, you are not ripe yet."

As a professional fruit farmer, Chrollo knew that Bai Ze was still a green apple, needing time to mature.

Giving Bai Ze ample time, he could grow from a green apple to a ripe fruit, ready for him to enjoy, this was the outcome he desired.

Immediately, Chrollo didn't hesitate.

He directly used "Thin" to heal his wounds.

"Thin" — can turn aura into any texture of skin you wish.

By adding imagination to his aura, you can recreate any texture.

But it can only mimic things as thin as paper, meaning, it's like a high-quality color photocopy, but once touched, it will be exposed.

In the original, Chrollo's spider tattoo on his back was created using "Thin".

After using "Thin," the originally wounded Chrollo was now perfectly fine.

This was Chrollo's usual tactic, using "Thin" to deceive and confuse his opponent.

Providing false information, making his opponent guess wrong about his Nen ability.

Crushing his opponent's spirit, then playing with them slowly.

In the original, Chrollo's battle against Uvogin, Chrollo played with Uvogin like this.

After recovering, Chrollo smirked wickedly.

"As a magician, I won't get hurt, you understand?"

In the illusion created by Kulolom, Bai Ze pressed down on the brim of his hat with his left hand, raised his right hand with the gun, pointed it at Chrollo, and coldly said.

"Guess if there are bullets left in my gun?"

"You're not hurt now, I just need to shoot you again."

"Oh~, is that so?" This time, Chrollo, who was serious, made the first move, throwing out the playing cards in his hands.

Slash~

A sound of wind breaking.

The playing cards cut through the air like sharp blades, leaving behind afterimages, directly targeting Bai Ze's heart.

Not only that, but all the playing cards that were shot out were coated with "Bungee Gum".

As a result.

The next second.

Several "puchi" sounds.

These playing cards pierced into Bai Ze's body one after another, penetrating his heart.

Blood gushed out, staining Bai Ze's black suit red.

In an instant, Bai Ze's mouth also overflowed with a large amount of blood, his face filled with unwillingness and terror, then he fell down, lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.

Chrollo was slightly stunned.

His eyes widened: Huh???

He died....

He thought Bai Ze would resist.

But he died like that?

Before Chrollo could react.

Bai Ze's corpse in front of him turned into an afterimage and directly disappeared from Chrollo's sight, including the blood on the ground, it also vanished without a trace.

Amamiya also disappeared.

As if everything had never existed.

This made Chrollo pause for a moment.

Like petrified, his eyes lost their light.

You know, he didn't want to kill Bai Ze now, this was a green apple, not yet ready to be picked.

Chrollo's brain spun quickly, after a few seconds of silence.

His expression suddenly changed, extremely sinister, revealing a ferocious smile.

"I understand!"

"It's an illusion!"

"Hahaha~ Was I deceived again?"

Huh, not playing fair.

He was about to play seriously, but Bai Ze disappeared.

Chrollo liked this little apple even more.

This continuous reversal made Chrollo realize Bai Ze's strength, and made him admire Bai Ze even more.

He looked forward to completely destroying him when Bai Ze reached his peak!

With his arms spread, Chrollo laughed wildly, his whole body wrapped in extreme black malice, revealing a sickly greedy face, like a devil from hell.

"Illumi!"

"Illumi~!"

"Illumi~~!"

Hahaha~ This is his perfect fruit!

Alright, another one has gone crazy.

In the alleyway, due to the fierce battle between Bai Ze and Chrollo.

The continuous explosions from the battle had already attracted a crowd of onlookers.

Seeing Chrollo, who looked like he was going crazy, and the extreme malice on him, made them feel uneasy, subconsciously staying away from him.

"Is this guy crazy?"

"I think so, stay away from him, don't get close."

In the crowd, there was also a young boy with short black hair, his black cat eyes were calm and emotionless, like a robot, he wore a purple outer garment and black pants.

As an assassin, the boy had come to the city of pleasure to carry out a mission, and just happened to pass through this alleyway.

He met the crazy Chrollo, with a dumbfounded expression, he looked at Chrollo, his pupils reflecting Chrollo's figure, he rubbed his chin with his right hand, mumbling to himself.

"Why does this guy keep calling my name...."

"Does he know me?"

"Or is it a coincidence?"
