……….

Evolution, not just his genetic structure, no, even his Nen seem to be affected by it and is evolving constantly with his abilities becoming stronger as well.

His Aura pool seems to be enlarging continuously with no end as his hungry cells gave birth to more and more aura to nourish itself as well as every cell of his body.

Just like his body is adapting to its new genes, his Aura is also adapting to it. An unending evolution as long as he has more blood for his genes to work based upon and to gain the functionality it has.

He happened to have numerous creatures lined up back in his lab, special creatures he brought back from the dark continent so of course he will make use of them and he constantly drinks some new blood whenever he feels like his new genes need more keeping them working without stop.

His body is basically a perfectly structured machine with numerous gears within and once even one starts turning, every other gear gets affected and starts turning as well.

He just needs to hunt for better creatures, ones with abilities that can push his gene’s functionality to a higher level and he knows several targets that can help him do so.

However, he only started his short hunt on the 16th of August until he took a significant portion of the tubes of blood he already has and until he felt his genes have completely adapted to themselves. As for his Aura pool and Domain range, their increase was certainly something interesting to see.

At that point, Yasuo was lying down on the top of the black whale enjoying the warm sun, the heavy wind caused by the ship’s speed didn’t faze him at all nor did it faze the strange creature clinging to him.

His guardian beast which even surprised him, he thought about controlling his desires to get a specific guardian beast of his choosing but chose not after thinking about it.

He wanted to see what the natural result will be, and it’s certainly interesting. A creature he knows too well or at least it’s similar to the creature from the legends he knows about.

A creature he read quite a lot about, a creature that was once a human but turned into something else due to the punishment of the Gods, Medusa.

Medusa, in Greek mythology, the most famous of the monster figures known as Gorgons. She was usually represented as a winged female creature having a head of hair consisting of snakes; unlike the Gorgons, she was sometimes represented as very beautiful.

And the creature clinging to him is quite similar with the same head of hair consisting of snakes though the snakes are all one-eyed, vertical cat-like eyes. A beautiful face with glossy skin with cat-like eyes.

Her lower body also looks like a snake’s, glossy snake tail in the same black color as her eyes, in fact, her whole coloring loos as such, a mix of black and white. Glossy scales in her entire snake-like lower body that seem to extend a bit up covering her chest but leaving the rest of her pure white skin.

The snakes on her head are also the same with pitch-black shining scales, and they appear to be acting strangely just like they always do, in fact, his guardian beast is always acting strangely.

She’s always clinging to him never leaving his side unless he ordered her to while the snakes on her head are always looking around as if looking for something or watching for anything that might come close to him… It seems to be quite cautious but she always listens to Yasuo and obeys his orders just like now as he ordered her to retreat inside.

Yasuo stood up closing his eyes for a moment before letting out a small smile, one of amusement as if he saw something entertaining. The scenery changed as he appeared within a large hall, one that looks in rubbles as if a fight happened here.

Debris could be seen everywhere with a few of the long concrete columns already broken down, bodies could be seen everywhere, dead bodies of civilians and some that are still alive but are unconscious, a strange scene indeed, a scene within the black whale specifically within the last the lowest tier.

“This doesn’t have to happen you know? You can just turn around and go whence you came from.” The words uttered were quite amusing to Yasuo, the calm words that came from the man sitting on one of the rubbles, none other than Chrollo Lucilfer.

“You expected my arrival huh, an ability of yours?” Asked Yasuo in return.

Chrollo didn’t seem to be interested in hiding anything as he knows it’s useless, “Wel, I had to prepare just in case and imagine my surprise when I found out you’re targeting us. Either you have been hired by someone or it’s just for yourself but it doesn’t matter because I know no matter what happens, I will be alive by the end of the day.”

“Hmm, I see, well no unexpected, you’ve met me so of course, you’ll want to find a way to counter me just in case. Anyway, let’s all start shall we?” A casual answer that lets Chrollo know that no fighting happening is simply not an option.

“You’re quite annoying… but yeah let’s start… Also, thank you all.” Those were Chrollo’s words as if he has given up already but his actions say otherwise and especially those last words that were directed towards his family.

The other Phantom Troupe members that appeared from within the numerous rubbles around each of them ready for what’s to come, why Yasuo is here doesn’t matter much to them, what matters is that there is an enemy that seeks to extinguish their family release and they couldn’t allow that.

They are definitely prepared for the coming battle and they have been preparing for a while now, in fact, once Chrollo found something like this will happen, he decided not to go into the black whale in the first place.

But he also found out that whether he’s within or not doesn’t matter, that same vague prophecy always occurs so he decided for the battle to happen in the location most advantageous to them.

Nobunaga and Feitan could be seen walking next to each other both with a sword in their hands with the latter wearing a strange crimson suit armor though it seems to be worn only on his lower body as well as on his right hand.

Following not far behind them is Phinks who seems to be winding his right arm in a clockwise direction with the aura focused on his arm getting stronger each time and only they know for how long he has been doing so.

Next to him is Shalnark who doesn’t look to be doing anything in particular, just following them and holding a red phone in his arm. Kortopi could also be seen crouching far behind him though not moving and in front of him is none other than Franklin who is ready to start firing Nen bullets from his fingers, specifically from his fingertips that were cut open by him as to strengthen his ability.

Machi, Shizuku, and Pakunoda remained motionless in their location while Bonolenov started doing his strange ritual, a dance as to summon something he couldn’t previously in his fight against Silva and prove himself.

Chrollo frowned as even with all the advantageous circumstances and conditions, Yasuo still remained casual in front of all of this and he doesn’t like it, he knows he will be alive by the end of the day but that’s all he knows.

He was sure most of them should be able to survive, after all, who can fight this many Nen users at the same time especially once with their level of strength and preparation.

However, he didn’t let that cloud his judgment and instead declared the start of the fight by walking towards Yasuo as well and at that instant, both Nobunaga and Feitan disappeared or so it appears because their movement is so fast they appeared next to the motionless Yasuo almost instantly.

They appeared swinging their words at him and with perfect teamwork as to give him as little of a chance to evade as possible. Yet, he remained motionless, something they didn’t expect at all making some of their plans temporarily useless with the scene that happened next.

A sword seeking to cut his neck and one seeking to go through his heart but what was heard isn’t the sound of flesh and bones being cut, it was the sound of metal clashing. The sound of the swords that were deflected once they made contact with his metallic-like skin.

The fact that they used Shu on the swords making them stronger changed nothing, the man didn’t even move from his place.

And only then did Yasuo move, he moved his right leg up in the air before swinging slightly until it made contact with Nobunaga and all that was heard was the sound of bones crashing multiple times as he targeted Feitan that still didn’t have a chance to react.

Fietan’s left arm and his left chest bones were crushed yet not a sound came out of his mouth, he only frowned while Nobunaga was brought back to machi by the thin vague strings she manipulates…
