Chapter 28
Title: The Monster is BACK...
…
-Two Months Later-
-General POV-
Uvogin just like a madman kills the mafia members who have numerically weapons. He looks like a cavemen killing ants. Also from far away Kurapika, Melody and the rest of the Nostrade family guards just look at this with a little fear in their hearts. They had never seen a Nen user of this caliber, bullets and even rockets are nothing against him and there are even more monsters who should be around this level just playing cards.
…
After that the Shadow Beasts come but… they are all defeated by Uvogin. But he is still paralyzed from the poison then…
*fwoosh*
A chain comes out of nowhere and grabs Uvogin… right before the eyes of the other Troupe Members.
All of this was happening while a human covered in darkness looked at them. It was Jax… he was just looking at all of this with a smile on his face and some popcorn. As if this was all just some great show to him. When he saw Kurapika's chains the first thing he thought was. 'Weaker than expected, sure they would be able to hold down people as strong as Uvogin but I would be able to break through in less than a second… around 0.1 seconds… man I really have gotten stronger. I can't wait to go to the Dark Continent.'
While contemplating this Jax still kept following Kurapika's little gang who just rode away with Uvogin. He just kept running casually and was easily able to keep up with them.
'This is really fun, seeing them in real life is way better than the anime.' Amusedly thought Jax. Then he decided to stop and wait for the Phantom Troupe. Those guys are way more fun than these. 'I will also see how the battle with the rest of the Shadow Beasts is like.'
…
Jax just looked at them as Owl just uses his conjured cloth to try and trap the Phantom Troupe members in the car. Since Nobunaga was sitting in the middle in the back seat, when the others jumped out he couldn't decide fast enough which side to jump so he… got taken.
….
Ok so the fight was really one sided… not because the Shadow Beasts had bad abilities or anything like that… it was just simply arrogance and hot headedness. Honestly their Hatsus weren't even that bad…
'But as expected within minutes they got slaughtered, only Owl, the one that can conjure a cloth that reduces someone's size and weight. Truly a nice ability that one, if he trained for a couple of decades he would become really strong, a top level hunter, that ability also has pretty good defensive properties.' Thought Jax with a disappointed look on his face.
…
Just like that he followed them to an abandoned building where Feitan tortured Owl. The other members were in another room just relaxing. That is when Jax decided to walk into the building.
As soon as Jax got into the second floor where the others were, Machi's body immediately started shaking. Nobunaga just looked at her with a frown and asked. "What is wrong Machi."
Machi had a nervous look on her face, her body drenched in cold sweat, her instincts screaming.
"I c -can f -feel his p- persance… h -he is close t- to u-us" Stuttered Machi, even though she wasn't on the floor throwing up and screaming like the first time she met him. Her instincts still warned her of someone, way out of their leagues is nearby.
'That monster is here in this building.' Thought Nobunaga together with the others with that memory of that night resurfacing. Fitan was still torturing Owl but even he stopped. Even from the other room with his keen hearing… he just heard what the others said...
Then they all herd.
*clap*
*clap*
*clap*
Some slow claps coming from the darkness of the hallway. Shizuku, Shalnark, Machi and Nobunaga can't help but feel fear as their worst nightmare comes out of the shadows.
"I must say, your intuition is truly terrifying Machi. It's like you have a sixth sense. Though I must say, seeing a girl become wet just from my presence… raised my self esteem." Said Jax with a smile on his face, commenting about Machi being covered in cold sweat.
Nobunaga, even though he is scared for himself, he puts his hand on the handle of his katana while saying. "What is it that you need, we already have your needles in our skulls. There would be no need for you to find us."
Jax just smiled and raised his hands up to show that he is harmless. "Wow, you guys have gotten stronger. Now I must say that is really scary."
When they saw his actions they just couldn't help but think that this monster really likes to bullsh*t too much.
…
-Jax POV-
I just look at them all, this is fun, having power like this. Truly the only threat to my life on this continent would be Nanika or post nuke Meruem. But sadly none of them are available currently, and I am not willing to mess with Nanika since her fighting power by herself is close to none, but... Anyways, better concentrate in the fun stuff going on, in front of me.
When I see that none of the Phantom Troupe reply to me, I just shrug my shoulders. "Well I guess you guys are humble and all that. That is nice… being humble is very good. Anyway I have nothing better to do so I will be following you guys around."
All of them immediately have worried looks on their faces. Wow, talk about being a bad host huh… anyway I just told them reassuringly. "Don't worry I won't interfere with anything you guys do. I will just be an observer having fun."
Even while saying all this I have a bright smile on my face. A smile a day, keeps the depression away… or so they say…
Shalnark, Feitan, Nobunaga and Machi sighed in relief at this. Man, am I really that scary to them. I try to think back on the things that I have done to them that could make them so afraid of me….. Well I guess I can see where they are coming from.
….
They are forced to reluctantly accept. I am currently watching them from afar as they free Uvogin. How lucky Kurapika is for him to not be here. He is meeting with Hisoka, and he is probably already planning on how to take out Uvogin. A battle between Nen fighters is VERY complicated, knowing your opponents abilities is such a huge advantage… actually in most Nen fights knowing your enemy's ability is the main reason you would win against your opponent. Even though lately my raw power has reached such a stage that I don't really even need to try and I would easily kill my opponent under 0.2 seconds if he was near me at a 50 meter radius without even needing to use Nen.
Anyway, now things should start getting interesting.
….
-Next Day-
And they did get interesting, everything went almost like Canon. I am actually looking at the fight against Kurapika and Uvogin. This was awesome and entertaining as hell. Though I forgot to bring some popcorn so that is a bummer.
…
After the fight I just looked as Kurapika buried Uvogin. That guy really just brought a shovel to a fight. I couldn't stop laughing.
....
When I returned back to the Phantom Troupe hideout. Like usual it was another abandoned building, outside of the city. I saw that all of the members of the troupe were there… it also seems like we have some new members in the Troupe…
….
-General POV-
Chrollo was the first to have the guts to ask Jax. "Did Uvogin fight the chain user… and is he alive."
Jax just shrugged and a smile appeared on his face. "Cmon now, I can't tell you that. You must solve the mystery by yourself. Sorry but you ain't getting no spoilers from me"
When Jax said that, Nobunaga's grip on the handle of the sword so tightly that veins started appearing on his bands. He was angry.... But he knew that he couldn't attack Jax or he knew what would happen. He would be killed by Jax before he could even blink. So he had to breathe deeply to try get rid of the anger inside of him.
While this was happening, the Phantom Troupe members were too concentrated on Jax to notice that… Hisoka had a totally different look on his face. His eyes were wide open and a psychotic smile appeared on his face. He truly couldn't sense any Nen from the person casually talking to the Phantom Troupe members.
But then suddenly Jax turned and looked at Hisoka… he just smiled at him.

AUTHOR NOTE:
HISOKAAAAAA...uhhhhh... anyway... skipped a part of the story. I just summarized it in order to refresh your memories. The MC doesn't intervene too heavily, though he is observing the Hatsu that are being used in here... observing them very closely...😏
