Chapter 23 - The Secrets of Martial Arts

In the end, MOARIK still didn't provide any extra senzu beans.

For something of this level, no matter how much you ask, the answer is definitely no.

Netero didn't insist either; instead, he asked MOREL to escort MOARIK out.

"What an interesting young man, ho ho ho."

Inside the room, a half-eaten senzu bean appeared again in Netero's palm.

"Truly fascinating. How did he do it?"

He turned his palm over, examining it thoughtfully.

When Netero asked earlier, he wasn't actually trying to get extra senzu beans from MOARIK.

What he was really curious about was the process by which MOARIK produced the senzu bean.

"There was no fluctuation of aura or change in energy level.

Moreover, his strength isn't that remarkable, and his movements were quite rough…"

Earlier, when Netero put away the senzu bean, it was actually a test.

He wanted to see if MOARIK could clearly observe his action of hiding the senzu bean.

Through his observation, he could confirm that MOARIK wasn't pretending; he genuinely hadn't seen it clearly.

So, the technique MOARIK used to take out the senzu bean, which even Netero couldn't fully comprehend, was indeed intriguing.

"Nen is indeed a mysterious power; perhaps there are secrets here that even I can't discern."

Netero smiled joyfully, "Another interesting young person has appeared! Ho~ ho~ ho!"

Whether it was using Byande's name to meet him or presenting this miraculous bean, or the unfathomable technique he employed~~~

Netero had a premonition that this young man's future achievements would not be limited to this.

Even though he is currently quite weak, there is a faint, boundless potential within him.

"Grow up quickly, now~"

He stood up, picking up the dodgeball that lay by his feet, and weighed it in his hand. "Being alone can be quite boring."

Plop, plop, plop.

The frail-looking old man, all by himself in this office, started playing dodgeball alone.

Meanwhile, on the other side—

"Finally, I'm out."

After stepping out of the elevator and waving goodbye to MOREL , MOARIK walked down the street, slowly exhaling a breath of relief.

Meeting with Netero, the foremost person of the era, it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

But fortunately, this old man had the temperament of an old mischievous child, and his personality was relatively just and orderly.

This blind box hunt turned out to be rather safe, despite a few surprises.

Now, it's time to tally up the gains.

MOARIK found a secluded, safe spot and looked at the blind box in his storage space, which was glowing with a purple light, and couldn't help but smile.

"Alright, let's see what this first 'Special Grade' blind box will give me!"

[You have obtained a Special Grade Blind Box. Would you like to open it?]

"Open it!"

[Opening successful. Acquired: Master Roshi's Century of Martial Arts Knowledge. (Origin World: Dragon Ball)]

Master Roshi's, the Turtle Hermit's century-long accumulation of martial arts wisdom!

Before he could celebrate, MOARIK quickly closed his eyes to carefully experience this acquisition!

Master Roshi, once the world's greatest martial artist from the Dragon Ball world, was known to the world as the "God of Martial Arts."

Founder of the Kame School of Martial Arts and the originator of the Kamehameha wave.

He was hailed as the strongest in the world, the legendary martial artist known as the Turtle Hermit.

On the surface, he appeared to be a lecherous, frail old man incapable of fighting a chicken.

But in reality, he was a muscle-bound powerhouse capable of smashing the moon!

Even though later he was overshadowed by one Saiyan after another, like Goku, his brilliance couldn't be hidden.

Having lived for over 350 years, the Turtle Hermit's accumulation and depth in martial arts is beyond description.

At least, as MOARIK slowly assimilated this knowledge, he began to realize just how powerful it truly was!

"So this is…"

MOARIK slowly opened his eyes. "The energy of the Kame School?"

He looked at his hand and slowly clenched his fist.

In an instant, an astonishing surge of energy enveloped his fist!

"It's not just in my hand, but also within my body…"

MOARIK could sense that within his body, there was a boundless, overwhelming power surging!

Among the Turtle Hermit's century-long martial arts achievements, there was naturally his century's worth of training results.

This included the cultivation of "ki"!

In the world of Dragon Ball, "ki" and the "aura" in Hunter x Hunter share common characteristics if you study them closely.

Both are pure life energy and can be used for combat.

The Enhancement Nen abilities in Hunter x Hunter are strikingly similar to the ki waves in Dragon Ball.

The training systems of both can be fully integrated.

Master Roshi's hundred years of ki cultivation have now become MOARIK's own strength!

In the world of Hunter x Hunter, among the strong, aside from abilities and fundamental combat experience and skills, the most direct measure is nothing but the strength of Nen and the amount of aura.

The Turtle Hermit's century-long training results have indeed brought an immense amount of aura to MOARIK!
