Chapter 197 Hopeless

Precisely because it is an opponent that is difficult to defeat, he must go all out.

This match—

What Netero admires most about Moses is not the preparations Moses made before the battle, but the firm will that Moses demonstrated in seeking a glimmer of opportunity in the direst of circumstances during the battle.

The steady gaze cut through the smoke, and fell on the blurry figure obscured by the smoke.

"Hmm…"

Netero stroked his beard habitually.

He didn't need to confirm Moses's condition, so he turned around and left.

When Bean saw this, he quickly told Fiona a few words and then jogged to catch up with Netero.

The two people left the venue one after another.

Fiona watched Netero and Bean leave, then came to Cheadle's side and looked at Moses, who was lying unconscious on the ground.

'How…how did you do it?'

Fiona still had aftershocks in her heart.

Shocked by Moses's decisions and performance in this battle, and also shocked by the last strike Moses sent to Netero's neck.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, who would have dared to believe that a boy under fourteen years old could do this?

It must be known that's Netero!

Fiona did not disturb Cheadle, who was treating Moses's injuries urgently, but lowered her head and silently recalled the battle just now.

She couldn't see clearly the palm strikes of the 100-Style Guanyin.

Only after the strike landed could she confirm the position of the strike, and then make some judgments based on Moses's movements.

From this, she was convinced that Moses did have the ability to evade the palm strikes of 100-Type Guanyin.

If it wasn't to create an opportunity for counterattack, there is a high probability that Moses would have dodged 100-Type Guanyin's second palm strike as well.

"Sigh…"

Fiona let out a long breath and stared at Moses silently.

Her evaluation of Moses, in the silence, rose significantly.

After a while…

The medical team, who was already on standby, came in from outside the venue.

Cheadle directed the medical staff to carry Moses onto the stretcher. During the process, she took the trouble to remind the medical staff to pay attention.

It was also at this time that Fiona had the opportunity to ask about Moses's injury.

"Is Moses seriously injured?"

"It's quite serious, he needs to rest for at least a month."

Cheadle answered Fiona's question while keeping an eye on the medical staff.

With Moses's current Nen's level, if he were struck by the palm of 100-Type Guanyin, he would be close to death, let alone injured.

With the current injury, it can only be said that Netero measured his strength really well, and controlled the force to the extent that Moses could be seriously injured and lose consciousness.

Hearing Cheadle's brief explanation, Fiona nodded slightly and said nothing more.

A moment later…

Cheadle left together with the medical staff.

Fiona did not go, but stayed in the venue to negotiate with the person in charge about the cost of repairing the venue.

…

Two days later, in the hospital ward.

Moses was lying on the hospital bed with white bandages wrapped in many parts of his body.

According to Cheadle, he would have to lie in bed for a month.

If he has excellent self-healing ability, he may be able to get out of bed in ten days and a half.

In order to heal his injuries as quickly as possible, Moses made a request for treatment with Nen, but was directly rejected by Cheadle.

The healing ability of the Enhancer can indeed allow Moses to recover from his injuries quickly, but the principle of this healing ability is based on sacrificing cells.

This is also the reason why Cheadle rejected Moses's request.

With no choice but to do so, Moses could only lie in bed honestly to recuperate.

Fortunately, although he couldn't train in this condition, he could still practice his Zetsu.

'It's still not 'long' enough…'

Lying on the bed, Moses stared at the white ceiling, replaying the match two days ago in his mind.

The shadow clone he sent out barely touched Netero's neck.

If his pain tolerance and resistance were a bit stronger, he might have bought himself some more time.

If the shadow clone had the ability to suddenly conjure a weapon, it might be able to produce miraculous effects in that situation.

Moses's thoughts churned.

In the end, he can only sigh with emotion at how powerful Netero is.

If it wasn't for the fact that Perception gave him the reward of '100-Type Guanyin · First Hand', which gave him a deep understanding of this move.

He might have been knocked out directly by Netero at the beginning of the battle.

At the end of the day—

In the face of an absolute gap in strength, any planning was futile.

"How much effort and time does it take to reach Netero's level..."

Moses stared at the ceiling and murmured to himself.

Suddenly, he thought of the contradictory feeling of time slowing down at the critical moment of that fight...

Because of that wonderful feeling, he was able to judge the timing of counterattack in such a short period of time, thus successfully sending the shadow clone to Netero.

"Is it 'listening to the heart through the fist'?"

Moses was a little unsure.

With his current level of strength, he is too far away from the realm of 'listening to the heart through the fist'.

But at that time, he was indeed immersed in the situation.

This precious experience may allow him to reach that state naturally in the future.

This was also something he gained from this match.

As for the fact that Perception didn't give him a reward, he didn't really mind, but it also showed that this match had no risks for him.

"I should concentrate on recovering from my injuries, and practice my Zetsu while I'm at it."

Moses closed his eyes, got rid of distracting thoughts, and soon entered a state of training.

During this period, Sanbica, Pyon, and Kanzai all came to visit Moses.

However, seeing Moses training Zetsu, they didn't dare to disturb him.

"This guy is really busy all the time!"

Outside the ward, Kanzai was speechless.

When he came to visit for the first time, Moses was still unconscious.

When he came to visit for the second time, Moses already woke up, but it turned out that he was training.

He could tolerate if he was just training, but what was particularly annoying was that Moses was training Zetsu, making it awkward to even say hello to him.

"It's 'you really don't have a moment to rest', you hopeless language idiot."

Pyon sat in a chair, holding her phone, playing games while correcting Kanzai's language mistakes.

Fiona was leaning against the wall not far away. When she heard Pyon attacking Kanzai first, she could only forcefully swallow the words that almost came out of her mouth.

She also wanted to correct Kanzai's wording mistakes just now.

Now that she saw Pyon taking action, her only thought was that she wholeheartedly agreed with Pyon's statement that 'he is hopeless'.
