Anime Survival - Chapter 76

The Mafia Community’s Underground Auction is an annual event held at the beginning of September in the Cemetery Building in Yorknew City.

Usually, all the Mafia families send their high-ranking representatives to attend the auction, and some Mafia bosses even go to the auction themselves, because it is the place where they can show off their wealth to the Mafia Community and make a name for themselves.

Members of the mafia had barricaded all the roads 2km around the building, James was sitting in the cab he had bought parked in a dark alley with his eyes closed.

With his Mind Sense, he spied on the building where the auction was taking place, thanks to his sight, he could see through the walls and observe everything that was going on around it.

James without saying a word waited patiently observing the movements of all the people around the area, finally at 9:00 pm, time of the beginning of the auction winds he noticed a change.

The heat signature and heartbeats of many people were disappearing, many people were starting to move quickly as if to flee while the guards posted outside the building were running inside.

James then opened his eyes and started the car and waited for a few minutes.

Inside the building, 9:00 pm.

Members of the Phantom Troupe, Feitan and Franklin, walk onto the front stage disguised as the hosts.

Upon welcoming them all the to the event, Feitan cuts his speech short, and Franklin lets his Nen bullets fly, killing nearly everyone in the room.

After Franklin killed everyone, Shizuku used Blinky (her Hatsu) to suck out all the bodies and blood from the auction house, leaving no trace behind.

This caused a huge disruption within the mafia, the auctions had just been attacked and several leaders and important members of the mafia went missing, the city entered a chaotic state in barely an hour.

Meanwhile, the members of the Phantom Troupe escape by a hot air balloon.

Uvogin, a member of the Toupe, a tall man with a wild air, overdeveloped muscles,  informs their leader that the merchandise was gone before they arrived at the safe.

Since the Mafia had taken steps before their arrival, Uvo reasons that there must be a traitor among them.

Their leader, Chrollo Lucilfer, however, explains that a traitor would have nothing to gain from this situation, thus there surely was not one within the Troupe.

They learn that the Shadow Beasts, an elite group of assassins under the Ten Dons have been called in to deal with them and that a member of the Shadow Beasts was the one responsible for emptying the safe beforehand.

Chrollo then gives the orders to kill any Mafia member that stands in their way in order to draw the Shadow Beasts out.

Hearing the leader’s orders, a big sadistic smile appeared on Uvo’s lips.

“I can’t wait….”

. . . . . . .

James followed the ball while judging the direction it was going.

“They’re heading for the desert.”

He had also noticed the ten vehicles belonging to the mafia that were also following the balloon.

“They really pissed off the Ten Dons, there are also more than five Nen users chasing them. There are really a lot of people who want to commit suicide these days.”

James hit the throttle and shifted to the next gear accelerating at full speed.

Then after several minutes of pursuit, the balloon of the Troop was quickly spotted by the mafia and shot down.

The Community, as well as the remaining Nostrade bodyguards, rushed to the area where the balloon landed.

The Mafia attempted to surround the Troop, which had landed on top of a cliff and was watching them.

Uvogin, whose blood was boiling, decided that he would be the one and only one to confront the Mafia and jumped down, ready to put on a show all by himself.

He began to easily attack the mafia members with his brute force alone, slaughtering them with disconcerting ease, appearing to be an unstoppable force, even an anti-tank bazooka had little effect against him.

Meanwhile a few miles further on, James was watching the show from the hood of his cab.

He watched Uvo massacre the mafia member with a slight admiration for the strength and mastery of his reinforcement.

“This guy’s really brutal, I’d love to have a fight with him, but unfortunately I have other goals.”

Kurapika, who had been employed as a bodyguard for the Nostrade family, and his comrades, who were watching from afar, were stunned by Uvogin’s power.
