Chapter 43 - 43

Uh-huh! ! !

The powerful contraction instantly turned Hisoka into a blur of motion, with other strands of [Bungee Gum] contracting one after another.

Controlled perfectly by Hisoka, the contractions in different directions allowed him to move at astonishing speed, shuttling back and forth so quickly that his movement trajectory became a blur.

And during his rapid movements, a new [Bungee Gum] flew out from Hisoka, targeting Ethan.

Ethan naturally dodged immediately.

But even if it missed, the [Bungee Gum] stuck to the ground transferred Hisoka's movements to Ethan's vicinity in an instant.

In a flash, Ethan seemed surrounded by Hisoka. Countless afterimages came and went, and he could be attacked by Hisoka at any moment.

In the distance, Lisa, who was watching the battle, saw Hisoka's offensive and her eyes immediately sharpened, worried that Ethan might not be able to fend off Hisoka's attacks.

"En!"

The moment he was surrounded by Hisoka, Ethan reacted quickly.

A large amount of Nen energy erupted from his Aura Nodes, forming an invisible, intangible spherical field that covered a five-meter radius.

Hisoka's movement speed was indeed dizzyingly fast, making it hard to track him, but there was a way to counter it.

'En' was the best approach.

The advanced application skill "En," a fusion of "Ten" and "Ren," formed a keen perception without blind spots.

Ethan activated "En," and within a five-meter radius, no matter which angle Hisoka attacked from, he could detect it immediately.

As for why it was confined to a five-meter radius, it wasn't because Ethan's Nen wasn't strong enough to cover a larger area, but because it wasn't necessary.

The larger the range of the 'En', the more Nen energy is consumed. Since it wasn't for searching, there was no need to extend the range unnecessarily.

Moreover, compressing the scope of 'En' enhances its perceptual acuity.

A five-meter range was the optimal setting Ethan had established for himself, similar to how Nobunaga from the Phantom Troupe controlled his 'En' within a four-meter radius.

"En? It's a good way to handle it, but you need enough reaction speed to keep up with me."

During his rapid movements, Hisoka immediately noticed Ethan's 'En.'

But Hisoka didn't get nervous; instead, he attacked swiftly.

Whoosh!

As afterimages continued to blur, a playing card wrapped with powerful Nen shot out.

The card appeared from behind Ethan, targeting the back of his head at lightning speed.

Uh-huh!

The moment the card appeared, Ethan's 'En' detected it. Without looking back, he shifted to the side at high speed, easily dodging the card.

'En's insight does require sharp reactions and skill.

But fortunately, Ethan excelled in both areas.

The card was merely a feint. As he moved rapidly, Hisoka didn't pause after throwing the card. Instead, he continued using [Bungee Gum] to appear to Ethan's left.

The real attack commenced. Utilizing the strong contraction force of [Bungee Gum], Hisoka appeared close to Ethan in a flash, holding a card in his right hand, slashing toward Ethan's neck.

"Mind's Eye Fist Listening!"

Compressing his perception of time to the extreme.

While maintaining "En" and accurately detecting Hisoka's attack, Ethan decisively used "Mind's Eye Fist Listening."

Hisoka's movements seemed to slow down, giving Ethan ample time and opportunity to respond.

Continuing his steps with agility, Ethan sidestepped calmly, and as Hisoka passed, he swung a powerful kick toward Hisoka's head.

Uh-huh!

The kick missed.

Surprisingly, Hisoka also demonstrated exceptional reflexes. After his attack was dodged, he immediately pulled himself aside with a [Bungee Gum] attached to his body.

The kick failed, but Ethan quickly stabilized himself, though Hisoka used [Bungee Gum] to resume his rapid movement, preventing Ethan from pursuing.

"Troublesome..."

Ethan frowned slightly, continuing to sense his surroundings with 'En' to guard against further attacks from Hisoka.

Hisoka's movement with [Bungee Gum] was incredibly fast, making interception difficult, and his reaction speed was equally sharp.

Just like earlier, Hisoka dodged in an instant, rendering Ethan's counterattack ineffective.

"Hisoka... this guy is really impressive!"

Although they were adversaries, Ethan had to admit that Hisoka was a formidable opponent. Not only was he powerful, but his mental fortitude was also impressive.

"Not only is his application of Nen proficient, but his reaction speed is also remarkable. This is indeed a rare and tantalizing challenge!"

As Hisoka continued moving, he marveled at Ethan, his excitement growing.

This kind of opponent was the challenge he craved. Only by engaging with such a formidable adversary could he truly feel satisfied and fulfilled.

Swish, swish, swish! ! !

The fight continued, or rather, it never ceased.

Hisoka didn't stop attacking after a single failure; he quickly launched a second, third... a series of consecutive attacks.

Using [Bungee Gum] to make his movements elusive, he launched attacks from all angles, creating a terrifying offensive.

Of course, Ethan's performance was equally impressive.

Using "Mind's Eye Fist Listening" to compress his perception of time, Ethan managed to evade Hisoka's fierce attacks repeatedly, and he could launch counterattacks in return.

The entire battle was a dazzling display of skill, with Hisoka constantly swooping towards Ethan like a phantom, then being dodged and counterattacked by Ethan. Afterward, Hisoka used his rapid reflexes and speed to evade Ethan's counterattacks.

Speed and reflexes...

The confrontation between the two was breathtakingly exquisite.
