The golden particles gradually condensed into a solid object, and a thin whirlwind formed a figure beside Kirshtalia. It was Izawa Sugi who returned to the present from the past.
Izawa Sugi did not use the transformation technique again. After all, so many people had watched his live broadcast, and there was no point in transforming into a child again.
"Long time no see."
Izawa Sugi heard a greeting voice in his ears, he looked in the direction of the voice, and saw Silva Zoldyck standing not far away, and Ilmi Zoldyck, who had returned earlier, standing beside him.
Izawa Sugi raised his eyebrows, nodded to Silva, and then his eyes fell on Netero.
It is impossible for Kirshtalia to contact Silva before Izawa Sugi spoke. It can only be that Netero called her over.
President Netero smiled and tugged at his mustache. "Your movements at sea last time attracted too much attention. For safety reasons, it would be more appropriate to let someone familiar receive you."
After a pause, he continued, "Thank you for helping to bring the other candidates back."
Ize Shan felt a little guilty. It seemed that he had scared some people last time when he went crazy trying to catch butterflies.
He said implicitly: "A tragedy has already happened there, and I don't want to see a new tragedy happen."
President Netero was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood something and subconsciously asked Kirshtalia: "Will the changes in the past not affect the present?"
Kirshtalia was retrieving information about Tate Town. Hearing what President Netero said, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "You don't think that if the candidates go back to the past and solve the monster, the future will change, right?"
"The world is restraining. Even if we go back to the past and do something, over time, the restraining force will actively adjust the tiny features and make everything reasonably return to the way we know it."
As he said this, he pulled up a record.
"Look, there was an earthquake around the town of Tate. The locals died one after another due to the miasma released from the ground after the earthquake. Within three years, it became a dead place. The two hunters who went to investigate also died one after another in the following years."
Kirshtalia said calmly, "We go back to the past to find the truth, not to change the future. If we really do something that can change the fate of the future, that past will jump out of the normal timeline and form a special point that needs to be cut."
"Otherwise, we who live in the future will disappear, because they will become a brand new choice for the future. Maintaining the past unchanged is to protect our lives and the future."
After hearing this, President Netero fell silent.
He thought that returning to the past with this technology could make up for many regrets, but now it seems to be a poisonous apple.
"Besides, without Mr. Shan's help, even if we send the people back, we won't know what happened." Kirshtalia marked the changes in the data he found and handed them to the researchers for research. He stood up and said, "For now, let's finish the association's exam first."
Kirshtalia looked at Ize Shan after saying this and asked, "Do you still plan to continue taking the exam?"
Ize Shan shrugged: "I'm here now, and I've made it to the last minute of the exam."
He asked curiously, "There's a fourth game?"
Kirshtalia shrugged: "The president said he wanted to add another game."
Netero sighed: "There are many qualified candidates this year. Theoretically, it should be a great harvest, but in reality..."
Excluding the one who died and the two who were sent back by Izawa Sugi, there were twelve people who passed the exam.
Among the twelve candidates, four are good at fighting enemies, Hisoka and Chrollo also have their own backgrounds, Izawa Sugi and Senju Hashirama are just here for fun, and there are only four left who are really useful.
They are Xiaojie, Leoli, Bakuer and Hanzo.
President Netero has already made up his mind to ask for favors from Zeno. After all, the four enemy fighters coming to him to take the exam together has greatly reduced the pass rate of other candidates.
As for Hisoka, just ignore him, he's just a bastard who likes fighting.
As for Chrollo... President Netero was in a weird mood. Who would have thought that the leader of the Phantom Troupe wanted to be a policeman?
Although he has turned to darkness and become a gangster, judging by his previous performance in Tate Town, it seems that we can reach a limited cooperation with him.
"Let's add another fight." Netero stroked his chin, "I want to eliminate one more person and see who is the unlucky one."
Ize Shan laughed out loud, is this a test of luck?
"Aluka and Kurt are not old enough, at least two of them can be eliminated this time."
Alluka, who had been standing silently beside Kurapika, immediately stood up and raised her hand, as if she wanted to say something.
Izawa Sugi looked over.
Alluka whispered, "Even if Kurt and I are not old enough, maybe we have fully demonstrated our luck and strength by taking the exam until now? Now that we have passed the exam, can we not get the certificates yet and directly get them when we are old enough? Otherwise, it will be a waste of your resources and our time if we come back to take the exam later."
Netero looked at Alluka with interest: "Then are you and Kurt willing to help me assess the candidates?"
Alluka tilted her head: "Sure, I'd love to!"
Netero smiled and said, "That's settled then."
As a few people were talking, the candidates in the Lingzi Transfer Room pushed the door and walked in.
As soon as Killua entered the integrated control room, he looked around. He didn't even notice his father and elder brother standing beside him, but saw Alluka at first sight.
"Alluga!"
Killua rushed over like a cat that saw Xiao Yu dry.
Alluka was also very excited. Although she had met brother Killua before, brother Killua didn't remember her. Now was their real reunion!
"Killa brother!"
Killua finally hugged Alluka, he hugged her very tightly, and the scene of Alluka's death in the Alexander Manor flashed through his mind. His body trembled slightly, as if he was afraid, but also very happy.
"That's great. I'm sorry, Alluka! I'm an incompetent brother! I actually forgot about you and Nanica! I'm sorry!"
Killua apologized vigorously, his head drooped, his silver hair covering his eyes, but Alluka, who was leaning against Killua, could feel the wet tears falling on her brother's cheek.
"It's okay. Alluka and Nanica have forgiven you, brother."
Alluka patted Killua's shoulder and comforted him: "Brother Killua still remembers us."
Xiaojie came over and asked in confusion: "...Kiya, this is your brother? But he looks like a girl?"
Alluka replied sweetly: "Because Nanica is a girl~"
A question mark slowly emerged in Xiaojie's mind.
Killua wiped his face and said, "Xiaojie, it's okay. There is some reason behind this. I will tell you later."
Kurt followed three steps behind.
He originally wanted to follow Killua, but seeing the atmosphere of Killua and Alluka made him jealous and envious. Then he saw his father Silva out of the corner of his eye... Okay, there is no need to worry about whether to follow the eldest brother or Killua brother, let's go find dad.
Kurt ran to his old father silently and quickly: "Father."
Silva hummed, frowned and looked at Killua, and whispered to Kurt: "Killa is using Nen? His mind and body are not consistent, how can he use Nen?"
Kurt said quickly: "It was Kuroro who did it. He taught the basics of Nen to Killua-san and deliberately stimulated the host's vitality so that Killua-san could feel Nen."
Silva looked at Kuroro, with a cold and sharp look in his eyes.
Chrollo noticed that Silva disliked him, but he didn't care.
He deliberately pointed his chin in the direction of Senju Hashirama and gave Silva a teasing look.
Shiba: “…”
Izawa Sugi and Senju Hashirama were talking quickly in the language of the ninja world.
"Uncle, why did you do it yourself?"
He glared at Senju Hashirama in disapproval, "I thought you would just stand there and buff them with Yang power, and let them fight the monsters themselves."
Senju Hashirama laughed. After coming back from the past, he shrunk into a young boy again. There was a cleverness and liveliness in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, but in Izawa Sugi's eyes, he was more of a mischievous boy.
"It seems to be something that devours vitality. As you know, my vitality is quite strong. It targeted me directly, so..."
Izawa Shan reached out and touched Senju Hashirama's head: "Have you consumed a lot of your soul power? Has Ashura woken up? Do you feel depressed?"
"You think too much." Senju Hashirama pushed Izawa Sugi's hand away and said seriously: "I haven't wasted my time outside these years. I'm very strong! Don't underestimate me!"
Ize Shan sneered: "If you hadn't been tricked into shrinking to this state, I would have believed it."
Senju Hashirama touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "It's not a plot. I have known Gakaphis for many years, and his people are also my friends. Seeing that they have died one by one and the power of the planet has begun to weaken, I, I... ahem, I just thought that maybe I could help..."
"Really? But have you ever thought that the power supporting a planet is too great and will directly suck you dry?"
"… Uh, ever since I mastered the power of the Six Paths and achieved the realm of the Immortal, I have never felt the taste of sucking dry again. I thought I could do it."
Ize Shan choked.
At this moment, he particularly wanted to learn from Uchiha Madara and stir-fry Senju Hashirama with a belt.
"Okay, everyone is here."
Kirshtalia clapped his hands and said to everyone, "Although the original plan was five days, due to your unity and cooperation, the efficiency of completing the task exceeded expectations, so the exam ended early."
"There are twelve people taking the pass test this time. The next test is the fourth one. The examiner is President Netero. The test will be held tomorrow morning. Now is free time to rest."
After Kirshtalia finished speaking, she asked several staff members to guide the candidates to rest.
Shiba first greeted Izawa Sugi, and then said that he wanted to talk to the children.
Izawa Sugi expressed his understanding, but he said, "Let Killua come to my place in the evening."
Shiba was stunned.
Izawa Sugi explained, "He and Xiaojie were using telepathy in the past. Since they were not using their own bodies, their telepathy carried the aura of the dead. When their consciousness returned to the future, their minds were also entangled with the thought of death. It is better to get rid of these small troubles as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Shiba felt relieved, as he was also worried about this problem.
Obviously, Killua himself has not awakened his telekinesis, but after coming back, he was able to directly block Illumi's telekinesis needles. Even if he had awakened his telekinesis in the past, his body was different!
"Then I'll leave Killua in your care." After making sure his son was okay, Silva's eyes inevitably fell on Senju Hashirama, "This is..."
Izawa Sugi: "My uncle, just call him Senju."
"Hey, Silva." Senju Hashirama greeted Silva, "Don't mind me, I'm here by accident."
Shiba smiled bitterly in his heart. Even if it was an accident, it brought great changes to their family.
"After the exam, you two are welcome to come and beat the enemy as guests. I won't bother you anymore."
After the enemy family left, Izawa Sugi and Senju Hashirama also planned to take a rest.
Kuroro came over and wanted to say something. Just as Ize Sugi was about to speak, his brows suddenly furrowed slightly, and he reached out his hand to suppress his words inconspicuously.
Kuroro paused, and when he stopped, Senju Hashirama happened to walk in front.
He opened the door and walked in, saying, "It's fun to go back to the past this time, Shan, do you play like this often? You don't know, when I saw you before when I lost my memory, I felt like we were evenly matched, and even had a rare competitive spirit!"
Senju Hashirama is already quite old, and his profound life wisdom has made him tolerant and kind, so it is unlikely that he would have excessive emotional changes because of anything.
"next time……"
Click, the door opened, and Senju Hashirama's voice was stuck in his throat.
At some point, Uchiha Madara stood outside the door, looking at him quietly.
