"You may be looking forward to me coming on the field, revealing your true identity, wanting to shock me, and then wanting to fight me happily, right?"
"But unfortunately, if the score directly became 3-0, then your hope will be dashed."
"I would like to see what kind of expression you will have at that time."
With the martial arts perception of the Kamesenryu Style, how could Lan not notice that there was a guy waiting for him on the opposite cliff?
Here, Leorio was rubbing his hands in preparation.
"Okay, this one's up to me!!"
He clenched his fists: "Hurry up and carry that guy back!"
"Tell the next guy to come over and die!!"
"That won't do!!"
On the other side, Bendot sat on the ground: "The winner is still unknown."
"What do you mean?!"
"This guy just fainted."
Bendot tried to move his body outward to avoid contact with the increasingly low pressure inside.
"We are taking a death duel. Unless one party admits that he has lost, he will have to fight the other person. Until he dies."
"This guy is still alive and has not given up at all."
Leorio felt unhappy after hearing this: "Tsk, a lot of bullshit..."
He turned around and looked at Kurapika, who was sitting there, and said: "Hey, Kurapika."
"Just let that braggart die quickly!"
"I refuse."
"Huh?!"
"The winner is obvious."
"But..."
"From the moment the opponent loses the will to fight, I will not attack again."
Kurapika said his reason: "Simply put, I don't like to take advantage of others in distress."
Leorio was a little anxious: "What are you going to do now?"
"The result depends on him."
Kurapika said calmly: "After he wakes up, the final result will come out naturally."
"In this situation, I don't want to do it again."
At this moment, veins bulged on Leorio's head.
"How about I do it for you?" Killua flexed his wrist and stood in front of Kurapika: "I guess you haven't killed anyone, right?"
He looked at Kurapika, who lowered his head: "Are you afraid?"
"I have never thought about whether I am afraid of killing people."
Kurapika was silent for a moment and said slowly: "And it's a one-on-one duel."
"You have no right to intervene."
"That's true."
Killua thought about it and stepped aside: "I didn't expect you to have such a temper."
"That's right, but no matter what..."
Leorio's tone was a little heavier: "This is a team competition!!"
"Don't cause trouble to everyone!!"
"Sorry, I don't want to change my principles." Kurapika still insisted.
Visibly, Leorio's anger value soared again. "Okay, then let's do it under the rule of majority!!"
"Those who agree to kill that guy with one blow, press the circle button! Those who disagree, press the cross, and it's on!"
He pressed the circle button without hesitation.
As a result, there was no movement on the big screen.
"Why isn't it showing?!!"
"Because they don't want to get involved…"
Gon, who didn't press any buttons, whispered: "We can decide this issue ourselves."
Leorio: "Okay, then let's vote by raising our hands!!"
"Those who agree to kill that guy, raise your hands!!"
There was complete silence at the scene, and no one followed him and raised their hands.
"What do you guys want?!!"
His impatient temper was about to be uncontrollable.
Killua looked speechless: "Because it's meaningless."
"Kurapika said he won't change his mind. Even if we vote, there's nothing we can do if he doesn't want to go."
"But didn't Kurapika swear to destroy the Phantom Troupe before?!" Leorio couldn't accept it: "Then don't worry about it. He should try his best to pass the Hunter Exam!! Am I wrong?!"
Kurapika simply closed his eyes: "I've tried my best, but I can't do what I can't."
"You guy..."
Leorio's veins were bulging.
He wanted to grab Kurapika's collar and shake this bastard awake.
But at this time…
"There are two types of things that can't be done. One is that your ability is not enough to complete it, and the other is that you don't want to do it and are unwilling to do so."
Lan also came over: "You belong to the second type."
"Ah."
Kurapika raised his head, mentally prepared, and looked directly into Lan's eyes: "I'm sorry, I won't go…"
"I'm not here to force you."
Lan interrupted him and said: "In such a world, you have your own principles, which is a very rare thing."
"But what's even more rare is that you can maintain this principle under various circumstances."
Lan continues slowly: "I just have a few questions now, and I need you to answer them."
Kurapika looked at Lan without saying anything.
Leorio, who was beside him, was less angry after Lan came forward.
Killua and Gon were listening to the conversation between Lan and Kurapika.
"You said that from the moment the opponent loses the will to fight, you will not attack again…"
Lan went straight to the core: "Then what if you are facing a genuine member of the Phantom Troupe now?"
"Will you still make such a choice?"
Kurapika suddenly clenched his clothes. At the same time, the keywords were triggered, and his eyes began to turn red again.
"The second question, if someone is willing to tell you the whereabouts of your tribe's eyes, but the price is to end the life of the person lying on the ground, what will you do?"
Kurapika's breathing was a little disordered.
"In fact, I think that in this world, doing anything has a price."
"The so-called principles are the same."
Lan said leisurely: "It's nothing more than whether the price to pay can make the principles give way."
"Just like what you are doing now, Kurapika."
"Now, this is a team competition of five people."
"And because you are unwilling to take action, Kurapika, we will stay here."
"Therefore, time will be wasted, and it is even very likely that it will continue until all our time is exhausted…"
Gon heard this and couldn't help interrupting: "But the other party just planned to admit defeat."
"Wouldn't it be better to wait until he wakes up to judge the result?"
"What if the other party keeps pretending to be unconscious or just stays unconscious like this?"
Lan just looked at him: "The final result is that all our time will be wasted."
"So, because of your principle, Kurapika, our time will be wasted."
"I'm not trying to blame you; I'm just telling you the price you'll pay for doing this."
"Leorio won't be able to pass the test and become a doctor to realize his dream."
"Gon won't be able to get a license to find his dad."
"And after you've experienced their disappointment and broken friendship."
"You won't be able to continue to catch the Phantom Troupe, and I can say responsibly…"
He looked at Kurapika and said: "You won't have this opportunity in the future."
