To Catch A Thief, You Have To Catch The Leader First

The killer, Gaara, was the first to find Chrollo.

He followed Chrollo all the way to the top floor of the Cemetery Building.

But unfortunately, although his skills are good, compared with Chrollo, he is a little bit behind.

When the squinty-eyed Mercenary Tao caught up.

"I smell blood ahead…" 

He followed the blood stains and continued to move forward: "It's like the smell left by some kind of animals."

"It's a hunter like me…"

When the squinty-eyed Mercenary Tao came to the top floor, what he saw was Chrollo standing in front of the French window with a book in his arms and the long-dead killer Gaara, who was nailed to the chair with a pen stuck in his head.

"Don't worry." 

Chrollo turned his back and looked at the other party: "I won't use any despicable means."

"Let's just fight one on one."

The book Skill Hunter, in his hand, flipped several times until it landed on the page with two strange white fish swimming.

"It seems that this place is quite lively."

On the outskirts of Cemetery Building, Lan walked here as if strolling in the garden.

The constant roar of artillery fire and the almost uninterrupted explosions around seemed to be playing an extremely gorgeous movement. 

This intense situation; if you don't know, you might think that a war is happening in the center of Yorknew City. 

The surrounding area of ​​the entire building is like a battlefield. There are people constantly making noises and running away in fear.

And all this has nothing to do with Lan. 

"This is convenient for me. No one will pay attention to my arrival."

Even if a nervous mafia comes to question him, he will calmly take out the letter of participation certificate of the Nostrade family. 

As for whether the other party still doesn't trust him, is vigilant and suspicious, and wants to do something to him… Then, he can only force his way in.

"The battle between the mafia and the Phantom Troupe is good proof that the number of personnel and weapons are worthless in front of the Nen users."

If Lan remembered correctly, the Ten Mafia Dons gathered a combat force of nearly 2,000 people and placed them in the surrounding areas of Yorknew City. However, almost all of them would be easily annihilated by the Phantom Troupe tonight.

Yes, it was easy.

"To catch a thief, you have to catch the leader first."

Lan raised his head and looked at the roof of the Cemetery Building in front of him. He couldn't help but reveal a smile with an ambiguous meaning.

And just at this moment.

Suddenly, a mafia staggered out with a submachine gun in his hand, raised the muzzle of the gun, faced Lan, and pulled the trigger.

Lan just glanced at it, and his figure immediately disappeared from its original place. 

"Oh?!

In the woods, Shalnark, who was holding a mobile phone in the shape of a demonic cat and controlling the toy, looked at the guy who disappeared on the screen and raised his eyebrows.

"It seems that there are still powerful guys in the mafia."

He glanced at the minions, who looked like headless flies.

"I'll find a new toy."

Shalnark made up his mind and wanted to leave, but when he raised his head, his body almost fell from the tree.

"Your hiding place is quite good."

Shalnark saw the man who disappeared just now standing in front of him.

With his hands folded across his chest, he commented on him calmly: "It's just that the distance is a little close; it's easy to be discovered."

"Is it your Nen ability that limits you from keeping too much distance between yourself and the person being controlled?"

Lan glanced at the phone: "Using a mobile phone to control the other party remotely is a typical ability of the Manipulator type."

"And some remote control cars and remote control airplanes require antennas."

"Then your phone should have something similar to an antenna."

"If you place it or insert it into the opponent's body, it can control the target, right?"

Shalnark listened expressionlessly, even if the opponent had almost explained his ability clearly.

His Nen ability is based on the mobile phone in his hand, which mainly has two functions.

The mobile phone has two antennas, one for others and one for himself.

At the same time, his mobile phone can also be used to communicate with members of the Phantom Troupe.

For others, it is called Black Voice.

Inserting the attached antenna into the other person's body can make the other party his puppet until he dies or the antenna falls off.

For himself, it is called Autopilot Mode. 

If it is inserted into his own body, he will gain an immense aura, resulting in a tremendous boost of speed and strength to dispatch any enemies within his sight. 

During this period of time, he will be unconscious.

In his own words, this is the most unfulfilling ability; whether it is victory or failure, he has no participation at all.

And now, the attached antenna is on the toy below.

And the other party has also glimpsed his approximate ability and will definitely be on guard against him.

Then, there is only one choice… He tightened the grip on the antenna for himself in his hand.

When necessary, he can activate the super Saiyan mode at any time!!

"The Manipulator type user is often divided into two types, one is to manipulate others, and the other is to manipulate themselves."

Lan continued: "When you manipulate others, you will spend more time thinking about how to achieve the conditions for the manipulation."

"In essence, people like you who have such Nen ability will not be inclined to engage in real-life battles with others but rather prefer the feeling of being in control of everything."

"Then correspondingly, their actual combat capabilities will be a little worse."

Lan saw Shalnark's essence at a glance.

Well, Shalnark, who was easily defeated by Hisoka in the restroom, is a good example of this.

Although he had no Nen ability at that time, facing Hisoka, even if he turned on the Autopilot Mode, Shalnark would definitely not be Hisoka's opponent.

Without the consciousness to use such a powerful force, Hisoka would have played him.

"If you control yourself, it is nothing more than gaining more powerful power, but people who are Manipulator type often don't like this method, so they often give up the control of their body and consciousness as a condition."

Absolutely correct.

Shalnark couldn't help but pinch his last trump card.

The young man in front of him seemed to be able to easily see through everything about him.

He just controlled the killing machine below with his mobile phone.

Such insight and judgment, as well as such ability…

It is completely different from the underworld organization that they have been exposed to during this period of time.

Even among those guys of Shadow Beasts, there is no such person.

"Is there such a powerful guy in the underworld…"

Shalnark had such a thought in his mind, and then a sudden flash of inspiration came to his mind: "Are you that person called Lan?!"
