However, if his subordinates were the ones to obtain it, then it would all belong to him.
He would only need to pay a small price in manpower and weapons.
And those were things he had plenty of.
The Elder believed that with such heavy firepower at their disposal, even the KUTE gang wouldn't be able to escape unharmed.

Old O and Old K did not rush to the other two locations where disasters were about to occur. Instead, they focused on pursuing Park.
Ron and Zeno, they couldn't catch, but if they killed Park, it would at least slow the leak of information.
"Did the material fall into the hands of the Zoldycks?"
Old K looked at Old O.
Old O nodded.
"Yes, I saw from a distance. That little brat took out a special bone. The Nen aura on it was incredibly strong—not something ordinary Nen tool materials can reach."
"It's a shame. Taking it back from the Zoldycks won't be easy."
Old O sighed.
"Zeno Zoldyck and Silva Zoldyck are already troublesome enough, and there's still that old, immortal bastard too."
"We've almost exhausted our potential. Even if we train more, the improvement won't be substantial. We need Nen tools to continue growing stronger."
"I never imagined the Zoldycks would show up in Meteor City."
Old O's eyes flickered with a hint of resentment.
"So what if it's the Zoldycks? Don't worry, Old O. If they've gotten the Nen tool materials, our gang will have three pieces of Nen material. We'll make our own Nen tools, and they'll be incredibly powerful!"
"After all, this material was obtained by sacrificing so many lives."
"At that point, even the Zoldycks won't be a match for us."
"We'll storm Mount Kukuroo, kill that old bastard, and reclaim the Nen materials."
"The Kute Gang of Thieves will be the most powerful group in the world!"
"Even the Hunter Association will bow before us."
"We'll make history!"
Suddenly, Old K smiled.
"We found him!"
In the next moment, Old K vanished in a flash.
A bizarre-looking Nen beast appeared in mid-air, aiming downward, and struck the ground with a powerful punch.
"Boom!"
A massive crater appeared on the ground, and there was Park, hiding inside the pit.
Park's face was filled with fear as he gripped his spear tightly.
"Did they find me after all?"
Old O's face darkened.
"This one is mine!"
Old K shrugged and stepped aside.
Old O raised his lone arm. Lava poured from his arm and surged toward Park.
In an instant, it reached Park's face.
There was no way Park could dodge.
"Ah!"
The moment the lava touched his body, Park screamed in agony. The intense heat caused severe burns to his flesh, and no matter how much he used his Nen to defend himself, his energy was already nearly exhausted after fleeing for so long.
Old O stood over Park, seemingly wanting to take out all his frustration on him. He relentlessly tortured Park with the lava.
Park could do nothing but scream in pain. The difference in their power was simply too great.
Finally, when Park was on the verge of death, Old K walked up to Old O's side.
"Take it easy. Don't kill him just yet. We might be able to get some valuable information from him about the Zoldycks and the disaster. It could help us."
Old O nodded and somewhat restrained his anger. He stopped focusing solely on torturing Park.
Instead, he began to interrogate him.
Just then, the sound of an engine roaring filled the air. The noise of the tyres grinding over uneven pavement mixed with the rumbling of the engines.
Both Old O and Old K looked up at the same time.
Their eyes narrowed.
"If I'm not mistaken, that's probably someone from the Elders of Meteor City."
"I never expected the Zoldycks would notify the Elders of Meteor City. Arent, they worried that we might be working with the Elders. The Zoldycks are acting recklessly like this?"
Old K raised an eyebrow slightly.
"No."
Old O shook his head and said, "There was a little brat with him, only a few years old, who looked dazed and dull. I didn't think much of it at the time."
"That kid doesn't seem very familiar with him."
"I never imagined that this guy would take the initiative to attract attention for that kid, creating an opportunity for them to escape."
"The information to the Elders of Meteor City must have come from that little brat."
Old K's face darkened.
Old O glanced at Park.
Then, with a thought, he used his lava Nen ability to completely cover Park's face, killing him instantly.
"These people showed up at the perfect time."
"Killing someone like him won't ease my anger."
"Now that they're here, everyone has to die."
"Old K, don't interfere. I want to kill them all by myself!"
Old K was somewhat displeased with Old O's decision. He also wanted to take action. However, upon seeing Old O's severed arm, he relented.
"Fine, but you better make sure not to miss anyone. Otherwise, I'll have to step in. We can't let any of them leave."
"Leave it to me."
Old O charged toward the Elders' convoy.
One man, running toward a convoy of several trucks.
The people in the trucks quickly noticed Old O.
"Attention!"
With that command, everyone became alert, raising their weapons—guns, cannons, rocket launchers...
Most of the people sent by the Elders of Meteor City were ordinary humans. There weren't many Nen users among them.
This had to do with talent.
Don't be fooled by the weak "new contestants" from the Sky Arena—those people had climbed to the 200th floor without Nen, relying only on their innate abilities and strength.
Compared to Ron, Gon and Killua... these people were average.
But for ordinary people, they were already geniuses.
A truly mediocre person, no matter how hard they worked, could never reach the 200th floor of the Sky Arena.
In other words, even the best of the best geniuses could only reach the level of the "new contestants"
Even in Meteor City, how many people had talents that could surpass them?
Even if someone received training. Did it matter?
Talent is talent, and someone without it, no matter how much training they get, will never go far.
"Shoot!"
The group aimed at Old O and began firing.
However, Old O's speed was so fast that to him, the bullets seemed almost slow. With just a slight movement, he could dodge them effortlessly.
Even rocket launchers had no effect; if they couldn't hit, they were meaningless.
Seeing this, the group began to panic.
Old K stood from a high vantage point, looking down at Old O, and smiled.
"Because of the plan, we haven't had a chance to vent in a long time."
"I envy Old O."
"Once the plan is complete, I'll need to vent too."
"Let's choose Meteor City as our target!"

**Meteor City, Elder's Castle.**
The Ninth Elder's face was as dark as a storm cloud.
"Total annihilation?"
Below, a figure stood before the Ninth Elder, bowing his head deeply.
"Yes."
"Only by two KUTE members?"
"One of them took action, while the other KUTE gang member didn't make a move."
"This is impossible!."
The Ninth Elder's voice became hoarse, filled with fury.
"The Kute Gang of Thieves are this powerful?"
"I sent hundreds of elite men!"
"I gave them the best weapons!"
"Not to mention my top subordinates."
The Ninth Elder was well aware of the strength of the subordinates he had sent, especially the Nen users, none of whom were weak.
