It was middle of the night. We were all sitting in a shabby building, while some were lying on the ground, waiting. We have given our orders, and plans had made. We were going to rob the biggest auction.
All the Phantom Troupe was shaken, earlier by the words of the Lucilfer. After we arrived at the shabby building when we have done with the Vigilants of Stendarr, Lucilfer started to talk about her plan. I already knew it, because Crow told me about it.
"Boss, what are we going to steal this time," asked Uvogin.
"We shall take the Underground Auction's Treasures," said Lucilfer.
"Which ones?" asked Shalnark.
"Must be ancient texts. Leader loves them." guessed Machi.
"No, it must games," Feitan said with the unique way of his talking. "There appear the World's most expensive games ever for sale."
"Why don't we take precious metals and gems. It would be a better option?" said Nobunaga.
"Everything," said Lucilfer with plain voice, but shocked everyone to their core. "We are taking everything in the Auction.
"Are you serious, Boss?" exclaimed Uvogin. "The Underground Auction is run by Mafia from all over the World. If we do that, we will be enemy of the all of them." Everyone in the Phantom Troupe knows that if Uvogin says something like that, then that thing is really dangerous. Because he is the most reckless person in the Troupe.
"Are you frightened?" asked Lucilfer with a big smile.
"I am excited. I am shaking with excitement!" said Uvogin with a thrilled face. "Give us the order, Boss! Right now!"
"You have my permission. Kill! Kill anyone standing in our way."
That was the night before the auction. Next day front line sent to the mission while some draw the attention of Brotherhood of Steel. In the original series Shizuku, Franklin and Feitan would be assigned to deal with Mafia. Machi, Uvogin, and Nobunaga would go as support. Because of Franklin's demise, Uvogin went in his place. He had the second best area damage, making him a better choice than the rest of us.
The one going to draw Brotherhood of Steel was me, and the rest of the team stayed in the shabby building. After killing the Mafia, the Spider didn't find the treasure because there was a girl, one of the Mafia Leader's daughter, could predict the future with her Nen powers. Crow told me Lucilfer was stealing this power in Original Series, and it seems like it was going to happen once again.
Because the girl can predict the future, Mafia hid the treasure beforehand. Thus Spider couldn't find it.
After I lure Brotherhood of Steel into the valley we fought with Vigilants of Stendarr, I sealed the valley with my Earth Style and flashed back to the shabby building. It would take them sometime before they could free themselves. Also, I didn't want to kill them all, without reason.
When I arrived at the building, Lucilfer talking with one of the went auction on the phone. She was talking about a traitor. Obviously, the person on the other side of the phone thought of traitor, but Lucilfer was way smarter than that and thought out of the box.
'She is smart.' Lucilfer added up all the possibilities and eliminate the possibility of having a traitor in the Troupe.
"If they knew we are going to attack, why their security wasn't tight. If they knew our arrival beforehand, they would hire A-Class bounty hunters and security would be stronger."
"I believe someone provided information that wasn't precise."
'Deducing to this point just the way security acted. She is a mastermind.' I already knew why the security acted as they did, because of Crow. If he didn't tell me about all this, I couldn't guess at this point. I wasn't stupid, but I never been this smart. It frightens me.
It was about time for Mafia to clash with Uvogin and the others. And all those people were going to be killed by Uvogin himself, including three Shadow Beast. Shadow Beast was a team established by stronger Nen user of Ten Mafia running the World. Also knows as Ten Dons. They were strong individuals, but they were nothing but a trash against the Spider.
I wanted to help Kurapika to kill one or two members of the Spider, but this wasn't a good time yet. I had to lay low the day Uvogin was going to be killed. Even without my help, Hisoka already gave enough information to Kurapika.
Hisoka's aim was similar to mine. Reducing the Spider's power so she could fight against Lucilfer without worrying about the others. Even the only reason for her to join the Troupe was to find a whereabouts of Lucilfer, so she can create a chance to fight with her. Just like me, she never had the tattoo of the spider, but fake it with Texture Surprise.
Since Hisoka was already on her way to help Kurapika, which the same as what I was going to do, give him the information, I decided to wait with the Leader and never left from her sight, so when Uvogin dies, she wouldn't suspect me. Even though I helped with Vigilants of Stendarr, I could feel her gaze, when I was looking away.
At the moment Uvogin was having a massacre. After he killed all those Mafia men, three Shadow Beast also would end in his hands. When there was a disorder, Kurapika would come and kidnap him with his Hatsu.
Kurapika had special Nen with his Crimson Kurta Clan Eyes. When Kurapika learned how to use Nen, his teacher noticed that Conjurer Kurapika, had Specialization Type of Nen when he actives his Crimson eyes. His Specialization type of Nen allows him to use all the other five type with %100 affinity. With his main conjurer type of Nen, Kurapika created 5 finger chain, with five ability on each finger. One of them can be used only against Spiders and it has the ability to force enemy bind with to Zetsu form. Sealing all Nen powers.
Forcing someone to Zetsu form is as good as sealing one's all powers. Because in this world, Nen was the main strength, and most of the time, one could only wait for death against a Nen user. Kurapika's this ability is so overpowered, but Crow didn't tell me how Kurapika created such a strong ability. It seems, there is some kind of oath you have to take. I looked into Pakunoda's memories, but couldn't find more details on it.
Kurapika was a mastermind, not any less than Lucilfer. He wanted to test his chains against the psychical power. Thus his first target was Uvogin because Uvogin was strongest even without Nen. After Kurapika kidnapped Uvogin, with the help of Shalnark's manipulation ability, he would be taken back. But because Uvogin didn't want to let this shame on his name, he searched all over for Kurapika and died in his hands.
But even though Phantom Troupe act like they don't care for each other, they do care, and Uvogin sends himself to death to prevent Kurapika have more information about the Phantom Troupe. Nobunaga cried for Uvogin and all of them wanted to avenge Uvogin. Still, as I was thinking earlier, some good act doesn't make all bad wash away. Just because of tears of the bad man, the sin committed would not be less.
