I always wanted to make a move against Phantom Troupe, but they were always hanging as pairs. Now that I caught one alone, I had the chance to kill Nobunaga. I immediately activated the 777 Glove. The rainbow born from the glove and lost six of its luster leaving only the Orange Color.

I was lucky because Orange was different than the others. It was not related to 7 punches, but it was a passive effect. The orange color was carrying the effect of the Sun and gave me the vitality and speed. As long as I had Orange color, I would heal faster, move faster, and I would have more stamina. It was like Enchantment type of Nen, with better effects.

I draw my Very Good Sword and activate the Sword-Man Unite. If it was any other opponent, I would prepare everything I had, but Nobunaga's senses were very strong. He could feel Gon and Killua even though they were in Zetsu.

Nobunaga was walking down from stairs, and he still had his En active. I attacked him from behind, passing through his En in Phantom mode. As my sword was about to hit him, he drew his sword as if it was lightning locked on my sword. It was so fast I hardly see the sword.

Nobunaga was Enhancer. He had enchanted strength, speed, and healing ability, combining with his mastery on swordsman, making it very troublesome opponent. I attacked him vertically by freeing my sword from his. He jumped back and put his sword back to his sheath.

"What is the meaning of this?" he asked. It wasn't easy to stay in Phantom Troupe this long and not give away thought of betrayal. Giving the fact I was even inspected by Pakunoda, me being a traitor was surprising.

"I am the one who killed Uvogin," I said. He still may thought I was being manipulated. It could be better for me if he were to hold himself back, but if he weren't I wouldn't have any advantage. So, I decided to make him angry now. Enhancers would get affected by their emotions, making it easy to anger them. As I planned Nobunaga jumped on me as soon as I said that.

"I will kill you!" he exclaimed and drew his sword. Sword cut through the air from the ground to the top of my head. I moved my head back and swung my sword to Nobunaga's torso horizontally, but he stopped it with his sword's sheath.

He put back his sword and put all his aura to on his right hand. A big attack was coming, and this was my chance. The bigger the attack, the bigger would be the cooldown. I threw four kunai around him and waited for him to attack. He activated his En, covering 1-meter circle. And drew his sword so fast, I couldn't even understand until he cut my abdomen.

"Sword Drawing God!"

If it wasn't my instincts sharpened with the countless fights, I would cut into two pieces. At last second I moved my body back, and the sword cut me superficially.

I flashed to the kunais around him and attacked him from every angle. Because of his attacks might, his aura depleted dramatically, and his speed reduced. He still could counter most of my attacks, but all kind of cuts started to form on his body.

After some time, he gathered enough aura once more and activated his En once more. But this time I was prepared and flashed to the out of the circle, evaded his attack. After his second attack failed to kill me, he was too tired to fight against me, but still kept fighting, but it was easier for me now. I put the sword back and attacked him with Fire Style Jutsu.

Even though there were billions of sword user in this World, I was the only sword user beside Nobunaga in Phantom Troupe. If I killed him with the sword, then they may have suspected me, so I attacked him Fire Jutsu to injure his body similar to Power Armor missiles, force Troupe to think it was Brotherhood of Steel made it. Because he was too tired to fight back with all of them, after some time, he fell to the ground and burned as if he was charcoal.

I looked around to see if there was any of my blood or body part (Skin, hair, etc.) and when I made sure there were nothing I flashed to the room where I killed the leader of the Vigilants of Stendarr. She was dead with the rest of the group, and the apartment was empty. I healed myself with Medical Jutsu and switched place with my clone, then canceled the clone. I learned what my clone and Shizuku were doing when the clone has been canceled.

Lucilfer was sitting with a blue haired girl, in a restaurant. The girl was one of the Mafia Leaders daughter Neon, with the power of predicting the future. Lucilfer decided to steal this power, so she helped the girl to escape from her bodyguards, and sneaked her to the hotel where the auction was going to be held. When they were sitting on the restaurant, Lucilfer brought to subject to the Fortune Telling, and with her Master Manipulation skills, made Neon to predict the future for her.

Neon needs some information about the target she is going to predict future of. The target must hand write his name including alias and nickname, full date of birth, and blood type on the piece of paper on which she will write the poem. A picture of the target's face is necessary if he isn't present. After Lucilfer wrote them down, Neon started to write Lucilfer's fortune.

"The Calendar loses two precious component,

The remaining months gather to mourn,

The mourners play a melody, while another fall to the sword,

While the eleventh moon quietly rises, with the first moon."

Lucilfer's tears dropped on the notebook where her fortune was written. She thanked Neon, but she had the flames in her eyes. She asked a few questions about the power Neon used. Even though Neon didn't know anything about her power, something unspecific could make Lucilfer steal it. After all of this, Lucilfer went to lobby where Auction going to start but in the meantime, another group had arrived.

In a room with hired guns, two men with silver hair were looking around. They were current head and old head of Zoldyck family, Killua's father and grandfather, Silva Zoldyck and Zeno Zoldyck respectively. They were the best assassins in all the World. Still, they were reluctant to fight against to Spider. When they were hired to fight against Phantom Troupe, they would say it wouldn't worth to money. This was a big honor.

The rest of the hired guns were eager to prove themselves and acting zealously. They wanted to team up against the Spider, but Zoldycks were too good for them. The duo walked to the upper stairs, where Lucilfer was starting mayhem...
