"It seems that the current situation, Mr. Beyond, has somewhat slipped out of our control, doesn't it?"
Nasubi Hui Guo Rou murmured quietly, his gaze falling on Beyond, who stood calmly with his hands tucked into his sleeves.
"Don't worry, my dear king..."
Beyond grinned, showing his grotesque x-shaped scar as a sinister smile spread across his face. "It's not as exaggerated as you think."
"Although we are missing the soldiers formed by the Chimera Ants and humans..."
"But our plans for the Dark Continent are proceeding smoothly. We mustn't rush to judge based on surface appearances."
Beyond stroked his magnificent mustache while speaking with great confidence. "I've already thought of the next steps."
"Hmm?!!"
Upon hearing Beyond's words, the chubby face of Nasubi Hui Guo Rou finally lost its calm, and his expression shifted slightly.
"What do you plan to do?"
He couldn't help but rise from the soft, expansive lounge chair, his large body moving as he spoke in a tone quite different from before. "Earlier, you weren't speaking like this..."
"Before was before, and now is now. Besides, hasn't the situation undergone massive changes by now?"
Beyond laughed nonchalantly. "Whether the Chimera Ants cause chaos or not, what I want..."
His eyes slowly deepened. "After the Chimera Ant king was born, we actually achieved everything we needed!"
"Our plan for the Dark Continent will face no further obstacles or trouble from now on."
"Is that so..."
Nasubi Hui Guo Rou silently gazed at Beyond for a moment before nodding slightly.
"Well, that's good then."
He said as he sank back into his seat, his expression returning to relax. "You never let me down!"
Nasubi Hui Guo Rou praised Beyond, even though the current situation might lead to some turmoil within the Kakin Empire.
But as long as Beyond assured him there was no problem, there was no doubt in Nasubi Hui Guo Rou's mind.
The years of win-win cooperation had deeply bonded their relationship, even to the point of being unbreakable.
If Beyond could really remove the obstacles on the way to the Dark Continent…
The turmoil in the Kakin Empire would be nothing compared to these greater concerns.
The king's ultimate goal had always been to reach the Dark Continent.
As for those so-called soldiers formed from the fusion of Chimera Ants and humans, they were all based on the possibility of traveling to the Dark Continent.
If there are any, it would be great, and even if there are none, as long as it does not hinder the Dark Continent plan, he doesn't care.
In fact, he considered them small, insignificant matters.
Having them or not didn't matter as long as he could make his grand appearance before the world and announce the existence of the Dark Continent to everyone.
He wanted to make the world remember him, to make his voice heard globally, marking his legacy as a great person who opened a new era!
That was his true goal: to make history and fulfill his lifelong ambition!
At this moment, Beyond's thoughts were also focused on the Dark Continent plan.
He had worked tirelessly, even leveraging connections within the V5 organization, using all means at his disposal, including the transit hall, to bring the Chimera Ants to the six continents.
The purpose was to eliminate all obstacles to the plan.
However, to say it was just about removing obstacles would be an oversimplification.
In fact, in the current era, V5 had already amassed significant power and was on the verge of taking action once again.
They had always harbored ambitions regarding the Dark Continent, eyeing the potential treasures it held.
Even this Chimera Ant incident had the V5's tacit approval, as they wanted to see if humanity could survive the low-level disasters originating from the Dark Continent.
Given that even V5 had this hidden desire for the Dark Continent, Beyond knew the only real obstacle he faced, and the most difficult one to overcome was…
His dearest father, the most powerful Nen user in the world, was the chairman of the Hunter Association, Netero.
Netero had personally experienced the horrors of the Dark Continent and understood its dangers deeply.
When the exploration team returned seemingly unharmed, one of the team members, Zigg, had been affected by someone from the Dark Continent.
As a result, the Zoldyck Family had become more secretive about the matter.
Not only them, but every previous exploration of the Dark Continent had ended in tragic failure, bringing back various calamities with them.
Therefore, Netero had been firmly opposed to further explorations of the Dark Continent, using all his influence and authority to block the ambitions of the hunters and others.
This opposition also included people like Ging, who were unreliable but still wished to venture to the Dark Continent.
Of course, this also obstructed Beyond's ambitions and desire to explore the Dark Continent.
Even though Beyond had personally gone once before.
However, now, even though Beyond had returned seemingly safely from the Dark Continent, he understood deeply that relying on his own power was not enough to accomplish anything there.
He needed to seek out other stronger, more resourceful organizations to back him up.
The Kakin Empire was the best option at present.
Now, from what Beyond knew, Nasubi Hui Guo Rou had completely lost patience.
He was even preparing to set sail with the Black Whale, a ship meant for a dangerous voyage to the Dark Continent.
Thus, their cooperation had reached its final stages.
Beyond was prepared to clear away all remaining obstacles in his path.
