"Is this truly Hisoka's strength... This guy is indeed terrifying!"
Lisa, observing the battle from a distance, was shocked by the power Hisoka displayed. Seeing it firsthand was far more impactful than just hearing about it.
Despite her shock, as the battle continued, Lisa didn't think Ethan would lose. Instead, she felt more relaxed.
"Hisoka is very strong, but Ethan is even stronger..."
Remembering the successful progress Ethan had demonstrated in recent days, Lisa was filled with confidence.
As Ethan moved his body, he once again dodged Hisoka's attack. He countered with a backhand punch, but Hisoka evaded it once more using [Bungee Gum].
"Is he trying to use this method for a long-term battle?"
As his punch hit the air, Ethan sidestepped without pausing, only to see Hisoka, who was moving swiftly, change direction and attack again without stopping.
The continuous cycle of combat tested not only physical strength and Nen energy but also mental endurance.
Whether it was Ethan or Hisoka, any minor mistake by either party would immediately become a fatal flaw and be exploited by the other.
In terms of mental strain, Ethan was at a disadvantage compared to Hisoka.
[Mind's Eye Fist Listening] was indeed a magical skill, but it also placed a significant burden on the mind.
Hisoka's relentless offensive forced Ethan to maintain [Mind's Eye Fist Listening] almost constantly, which naturally drained his mental energy quickly.
With the judgment of the current battle situation flashing through his mind, Ethan realized it wasn't favorable for him and quickly made a decision.
Uh-huh!
When Hisoka attacked from one side again, Ethan didn't dodge as before. Instead, he quickly turned, raising his left arm to block the card strike from Hisoka.
"The Art of War: Immovable as a Mountain!!"
Nen energy, which enveloped his entire body, concentrated on his blocking left arm, but it wasn't a simple 'flow' or 'hardness.'
Instead, it fused with his left arm in a unique form, making it extremely hard.
"Hmm?!"
Hisoka initially expected Ethan to dodge as before, so he was surprised when Ethan blocked, but he didn't halt his attack.
An unexpected change in the opponent's posture warranted caution, but not so much that he hesitated to act.
Poof!
In a flash, Hisoka, maintaining his attack, appeared before Ethan. The card in his hand struck Ethan's blocking left arm like a blade.
The sleeve tore easily, and blood spurted out.
But Hisoka's expression changed instantly, as his card strike on Ethan's left arm didn't cause the expected damage; it merely left a shallow wound.
Hisoka's card strike was a full-force attack.
Under normal circumstances, even if Ethan concentrated his Nen on his left arm, the power of Hisoka's strike would be sufficient to severely injure or even sever Ethan's arm.
Now it was just a shallow wound, which was an unexpected result for Hisoka.
"So hard, is that why he switched to blocking?!"
When the card struck Ethan's left arm, this thought flashed through Hisoka's mind because he felt strong resistance, as if the card had hit a piece of diamond, incredibly hard.
"The Art of War: Swift as the Wind!"
Ethan ignored Hisoka's reaction. After blocking the attack with a minor injury to his left arm, he launched an astonishing counterattack.
The Nen integrated into his left arm instantly returned to its entangled form, while his right arm became enveloped with Nen. Ethan's arms seemed to vanish as he unleashed a flurry of punches at a speed far beyond the naked eye.
The effect of force is reciprocal. When Hisoka's attack was blocked, he also experienced recoil, causing a brief moment of stagnation in his body.
Although fleeting, this stagnation depends on what one is facing.
"Swift as the Wind" and "Immovable as a Mountain" are new boxing techniques Ethan developed, drawing from various martial arts philosophies. He calls it "[Army Killing Fist]."
If 'Immovable as a Mountain' is an indestructible defense created through the combination of physical body and Nen, then 'Swift as the Wind' is an attack with the speed of a fist and the velocity of the wind.
"What a fast punch..."
Hisoka's pupils contracted suddenly, and he instinctively curled his body into a ball, crossing his arms in front to protect himself.
Boom boom boom————
The barrage of punches struck Hisoka's arms like a downpour, and as Hisoka was knocked back by the force, Ethan followed swiftly, continuing his relentless assault.
The frenzied offensive shredded the sleeves of Hisoka's arms almost instantly. Simultaneously, his arms swelled visibly, with skin and flesh cracking.
After enduring countless punches, the [Bungee Gum] that was a step slower finally activated, pulling Hisoka's body out of Ethan's shadow of fists.
Simultaneously, another [Bungee Gum] connected to the ground nearby contracted, violently uprooting rocks and soil, which swung with the [Bungee Gum] and hurled them at Ethan like a cannonball.
Boom!
Ethan's reaction was swift. He immediately recognized the incoming rocks and soil, turning and whipping his leg to kick the boulder-sized debris with tremendous force.
Just then, as Ethan kicked the rocks and soil, a [Bungee Gum] extended and fell close to him. Immediately afterward, this [Bungee Gum] stretched to its limit and then contracted rapidly.
This [Bungee Gum] naturally originated from Hisoka.
Amazingly, after escaping Ethan's attack with [Bungee Gum], Hisoka didn't pause to catch his breath. Instead, he used his left foot to cast a [Bungee Gum] towards Ethan.
The "Bungee Gum" contraction after extreme stretching created an incredibly strong pulling force. Hisoka flew back towards Ethan at an even faster speed, simultaneously using his right foot to kick Ethan forcefully.
