Chapter 261



Chrollo had no intention of taking the Hunter Exam.

Even when Alluka initially contacted him and said that they might ask their brigade to go on a mission and the price was negotiable, he didn't take it seriously.

There are so many members in the group, whoever is interested can take the job. Anyway, he has no interest in work recently. He just wants to dig up all the relics in the ground and find a way to get rid of the bad luck that shrouds the members and his own constraints.

But Ilmi offers him an offer he can't refuse: clues to a solution to his constraints.

Kuroro confirmed again and again that Illumi could indeed provide clues, so he personally came to participate in the hunter exam, and he didn't even bring any team members!

Although the constraints on him limited his performance, it also indirectly ensured that the enemy fighter could not attack him.

——This is a restriction set by your brother-in-law. Since he has set the restriction, it means he has no intention of killing anyone. If Kuroro dies, and that brother-in-law comes to your house in the future, can beating up the enemy guarantee that he will not be angry?

Although Hisoka is also very annoyed, what Hisoka pursues is the ultimate battle. Chrollo is now restricted in fighting, and Hisoka is eager for Chrollo to quickly untie the restrictions, so he naturally won't set any tricks in secret.

In this way, for Chrollo, taking part in the hunter exam is not dangerous at all!

But now he doesn't think so.

Kuroro never expected that Izawa Sugi has come back!

Kirshtalia was able to get the battle footage of Greedy Island, and Chrollo can get it too.

Kuroro did have an extraordinary interest in ruins, books, and new abilities, but he was no fool and could see that level of combat and stratagem was beyond his control.

He just wanted to watch a fantasy movie to broaden his horizons, but he didn't want to personally experience what it felt like to be hit by a meteorite.

Although Izawa Sugi was in disguise, Kuroro's improper method of removing the restraints caused the strength of the restraints on him to more than double. Therefore, when he and Izawa Sugi were in the same area, he could vaguely sense Izawa Sugi's position and identity.

When seeing the white-haired boy in a blue jacket and trousers at the entrance of the examination room, Kuroro couldn't help but warmly greet the entire Ilmi family in his heart, not even caring that Izawa Sugi might be among them.

After cursing in his heart, Kuroro still took the initiative to come up and say hello.

...He suspected that perception was two-way, either stay away or show up directly.

But Kuroro took the initiative to say that he was invited by Alluka. On the one hand, he wanted to test the relationship between Alluka and Izawa Sugi, and on the other hand, he was also looking for a way out for himself.

Illumi and Alluka are both children of the enemy Hakka family. Which side does the brother-in-law Izawa Sugi side with?

Then he was seen through by Izawa Sugi.

Kuroro turned around with a wry smile, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and the interface showed a chat with Illumi.

"Well, I was invited by Ilmi. He and his brother were having a family war, and he asked me to help. He paid me, so I had to play a role."

The black-haired young man who looked like a college student looked extremely innocent. "If Illumi knew that his uncle had returned, he would not agree to this family war, right?"

Ize Shan looked Kuroro up and down with interest. He smiled and said, "Kuroro, keep silent and don't tell anyone about me. How about we talk about your constraints?"

Kuroro's heart moved, and he immediately turned off the phone.

"You're welcome."

"You haven't had a good time these past few years, have you?"

"Yes, entrepreneurs like us are naturally not as stable as their family businesses."

The young man said this, as if he were a college student who had just discovered the dangers of the world after entering society, and he deliberately gave Ize Sugi a sad profile that showed loneliness and helplessness.

Ize Shan burst out laughing.

I have to say, it's quite enjoyable to chat with Kuroro, provided that Kuroro is willing to show understanding.

"In fact, I'm not a devil. The restrictions back then left a lot of room. Even if you can't hurt anyone, you can definitely kill someone with someone else's knife or fish for law enforcement. With your wisdom, you can easily do this, it just takes some effort."

There are still many crazy people and war maniacs in this world. Fighting and killing have become a daily routine for people like Chrollo, and it is impossible to avoid them completely.

Izawa Sugi: "Originally, the bond between us was not close, nor was it particularly effective, because the gap between us was too great. Normally, when setting a bond or oath on yourself or others, both parties must give and receive equal amounts."

Chrollo nodded silently after hearing this.

Yes, he also felt that the contributions of the two were completely unequal, and Izawa Sugi must have used other abilities to create the constraint.

So Kuroro thought, since there was something wrong with the constraint itself, he should be able to solve it by other means!

"But when you tried to break free from the constraints, the faint, even strong connection between you and me was miraculously strengthened. Why do you think that is?" Izawa Shan asked patiently.

Kuroro thought for a while and said, "Is it to prevent me from regretting it?" He paused, and suddenly realized something was wrong. "No, with your strength, there is no need to spend so much time on me. It would be faster to just kill me, so..."

He looked at Ize Shan in disbelief.

“Is this a hidden condition I set to prevent you from regretting your decision?!”

Ize Shan's eyes were full of smiles.

"Yes and no. This restriction was not made by negotiation between you and me. You voluntarily restricted and limited your life and future. You were less than ten years old at that time."

Chrollo's breath caught.

Ten years old? What was he doing when he was ten? He was still learning Chinese from the priest in the Presbyterian Church on Meteor Street, and he was still looking for cartoons with his friends!

"You use the countless lives that will die at your hands in the future in exchange for my favorability towards Meteor Street."

Izawa Shan sighed: "You are the real initiator of the constraints. If you take the initiative to regret, not only will the constraints not disappear, but the constraints will be strengthened."

Kuroro was silent for a while, then murmured, "So what did Meteor City get?"

Izawa Sugi replied: "We got a country. My people established the Meteor Street Federation there, and let Meteor Street join the World United Organization and have its own sovereignty."

Kuroro looked at Izawa Sugi suddenly and said, "Even if all the underground forces in the world get out of Meteor City?"

"Yes, Meteor Street is the Meteor Street of the people of Meteor Street. It always has been and will be in the future." Izawa Sugi replied.

Kuroro was stunned and closed his eyes involuntarily.

He vaguely recalled the scene of that year when his friend was cut into pieces, packed into packages and hung on trees.

He could not prevent sin, so he became sin; he could not dispel darkness, so he became darkness.

This is how the Phantom Troupe was born. They are a killing group formed by the people of Meteor City to protect their homeland.

But what if... what if Meteor Street became a sovereign state, would the countless children who were abducted, cut up, and sold back then still happen?

This constraint is indeed unequal, but it is not Izawa Sugi who has the upper hand. It is he and Meteor City who truly get everything.

“It’s really an unimaginable picture.”

After a long time, Kuroro sighed and said, his black hair covering his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression.

"That world isn't where I am, right?"

Kuroro was so smart that he figured out everything based on just a few words from Izawa Sugi.

"I didn't meet you when I was ten years old. You didn't come from the future, but from another world similar to ours, right?"

Without waiting for Izawa Sugi to answer, he said, "I saw this statement in a book a few days ago. What kind of existence are we?"

"Where do we come from? Where do we go after we die? Is the kingdom of the dead a reflection of our world? Or do we live inside the information cocoon? Are we the pheromone bodies outside the black hole of the celestial body? Is there another me somewhere else?"

Kuroro chuckled, and the complexity, melancholy and sighs that had just surged from him disappeared, accumulating in the deepest corner of his heart, and turned into calmness and composure.

"Your answer is truly unexpected. If it were published, it might cause a sensation in the scientific community around the world."

Izawa Sugi smiled: "Does the world you see look the same as others?"

Kuroro immediately understood what Izawa Sugi meant: "Of course it's different, so even if I say it, no one will understand it, let alone believe it."

Izawa Sugi shrugged, "You understand? This constraint was initiated by you, and I don't want to break it, because it is a child's effort to find a new future for his family."

Kuroro smiled and nodded. He agreed, "Yes, I guess he still has the Superman team that wants to save the world in his heart."

The cartoon he found in the garbage dump when he was a child was about a team of superheroes defeating giant monsters.

But in reality, there is no Superman Team, and these children cannot defeat monsters. They can only become monsters in the night themselves.

And he is the biggest one, the big spider with its legs spread out.

At this moment, Kuroro was in a very calm mood. He thought, if there was such a world, he and his friends were all fine, and the children of Meteor Street didn't need to look for cartoons in the garbage dump, it didn't matter if he was a little more restrained.

Ize Sugi clearly saw the change in Kuroro's thoughts. He smiled and mentioned another thing.

"I received the cloak from Kirshtalia. I heard that your members met with misfortune?"

Kuroro cheered up, yes, the issue of constraints can be put behind us, but the issue of bad luck must be resolved!

"Yes, although they are all small things, for people like us, a small mistake at a critical moment can be fatal."

Izawa Shan said with a smile: "Let me meet your team members later. It shouldn't be all bad luck, right? There is no aura of disaster on you. It should be those other bastards who used the cloak to do some terrible things."

The smile on Kuroro's face was a little stiff. He thought about how most of the people in the caravan seemed to have participated in the activity in order to test the specific effects of the battle cloak... Oh, yes, Machi and Kubiki, who had never been involved, seemed to have never suffered any misfortune!

"…I was the one who came up with the exploitable plan."

As the leader, Kuroro is very responsible and will of course personally test the specific effects of the battle cloak.

Ize Shan sneered: "You are under my restraint. Even Oberon can't curse you without my permission."

Kuroro suddenly had an idea: "Then if I go to some underground ruins, I won't be cursed by telekinesis after death?"

"Of course." Izawa Sugi raised his chin slightly, and that little face of Senju Tobirama was full of pride and arrogance.

Chrollo was in a good mood after hearing this.

Not only did he understand the constraints, but he also had the opportunity to break the bad luck. He was really grateful to Ilmi.

Thinking of this, he said, "Thank you for your gift. By the way, which side are you on in this family war?"

Izawa Sugi: "Alluka, this way."

To be exact, he will help with Nika.

Chrollo made a decision immediately: "I see. Then I will tell Alluka what Illumi is thinking."

Ize Shan blushed: "Not really, just remain neutral."

Kuroro said, "Ilmi has paid me, so I must complete his commission and help him take good care of his brother."

Since we need to take care of Alluka, the easiest way is to defeat all of Alluka's enemies.

He smiled and asked Izawa Sugi, "If I go to war with Ilmi, would you be honored to plunder the enemy?"

Izawa Sugi was a little stunned: "Is Ilmi's popularity so bad?"

Kuroro said implicitly: "He is in the operations department."

Most people in the operations department are control freaks.

Izawa Sugi still didn't quite understand and was about to ask for details when suddenly the examiner of the first hunter exam showed up.

"Hello everyone, my name is Saci, welcome to the hunter exam."

A middle-aged man in a black suit was holding a strange alarm clock, which made a clear ringing sound.

"I will lead you to the venue for the second exam."

He stomped forward, "Now, please follow me."
