Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

"Blocked."

In the underground cave, Nobu, Mo Laowu, and Nitro stood in the passage leading to the underwater abyss, but due to the explosion, the passage was blocked by falling rocks.

"But it's not completely blocked. You can still get through it."

Mo Laowu shined his flashlight above the falling rocks. The falling rocks were only piled up two or three meters high. Fortunately, the cave was big enough, the passage was high enough, and there was a lot of space above.

"call out!"

Nitro jumped up, stepped on a stone, used strength on his feet again, stepped on the stone step by step, and jumped to the top.

Mo Laowu and Nobu also jumped onto the stone and followed Nitro.

Soon, the three of them passed through the passage blocked by falling rocks and arrived at the lake where Nobu had previously discovered the mimic eggs. However, the water level has risen a lot compared to before.

"The water level here has risen by at least four meters. It seems that the channel to the sea below is blocked."

Nob used a strong flashlight to shine around the lake, and then shined the flashlight towards the top of the cave. He wanted to see if the super-large mimic was still there.

But alas, nothing was found.

"left?"

"I wonder if those eggs down there are still there."

Nobu frowned, and regardless of the designer suit he was wearing, he jumped directly into the water with a "pop" and went down to check on the mimic egg.

"Gululu..."

Bubbles emerged from the corners of his mouth. In the dark and cold underwater abyss, without oxygen bottles and shields, Nobu dived to a depth of twenty meters with only his physical body and a strong flashlight.

When the flashlight shone on the wall of the abyss, the densely packed mimic eggs had disappeared, and there was a large amount of sludge floating in the water, making it extremely turbid.

If it weren't for the energy protecting his eyes, Nobu wouldn't even dare to open his eyes.

"The exit below also collapsed." Nobu speculated in his mind: "Those mimic eggs were all affected by the explosion, but there must be some left."

Norbu planned to continue diving to find at least some clues.

"Gulu..."

As Nob continued to dive, a string of bubbles emerged from the deep water beneath his body. Nob immediately shined his flashlight into the water below him.

"Boom!"

The seawater exploded silently, and Nobu vaguely saw something with red spots all over its body hitting him at high speed, knocking him into the middle water.

"Gululu..."

Norbu clenched his teeth and his body swirled in the water. A large number of bubbles appeared around him. It was difficult for him to maintain his balance in the water where there was no place to focus.

"As expected, there are still mimics, it's time to go up."

Norbu controlled his body to flip in the water and swam toward the surface.

"Boom!"

The mimic agreed, and when it noticed his attempt to leave the water, it immediately rushed towards Nobu at high speed and slammed him into the wall with a bang.

"Just right."

Nobu's eyes flashed, this was the moment he had been waiting for.

While his body was swirling in the water, he stretched out his left hand. As long as it touched the wall, he could immediately set up an entrance to the fourth-dimensional apartment and leave here.

"Hoarse~!"

The mimic opened its mouth in the water and screamed silently.

"Uh-huh!"

But it discovered that Nobu was about to touch the wall, and the red spots all over his body shimmered. Its many tentacles swung through the water and rushed towards Nobu again.

"Dong" hit the spinning Nobu hard, knocking him away from the wall.

When he used his strength to swim towards the wall on the other side again, the mimicry accelerated and rushed towards him again, knocking him away again.

"You don't want me to touch the wall? It's the mimic from before."

Seven or eight consecutive hits made Nobu's body ache.

But he suddenly realized that he had been attacked by mimics before and escaped under their noses. I am afraid that this mimic has figured out his abilities.

"In this case, there is no need to escape."

Nobu felt cruel and turned on [Circle].

This is to sense the opponent's position and movements, as well as the opponent's speed.

After activating the circle, he continued swimming towards the wall as before.

"Hoarse~!"

The mimic seemed to be having fun, swinging its tentacles happily, hitting Nobu's body one after another, causing him to bounce around in the water like a rubber ball.

"Dong dong dong..."

This continued for almost ten times, and Nobu's heart froze, the time had come.

"Gululu..."

The large number of bubbles produced when the mimic moved at high speed in the water were captured by Nobu, and he also calculated the speed and distance of the mimic in his mind.

"hiss……"

The mimic opened its mouth and neighed soundlessly, then excitedly bumped into Norbu from behind.

"it's over!"

Just when he was about to hit Nobu, Nobu, whose body was spinning, turned around to face the mimic. At the same time, he quickly clapped his hands in front of his chest, and then stretched them.

"Fourth Dimension Black Hole!"

When Nobu's palms touched and separated, he pulled out a string of dark horseshoes on his chest.

"Boom!"

The mimetic body passed through the string of darkness and hit Norbu firmly, sending him flying towards the wall on the other side and hitting the wall with a bang.

"Hmph~!"

Nobu frowned and made a painful "hum" sound in his throat that only he could hear. He was hit more than ten times. If he was hit again, he would drown in the water.

"solved."

But at this time, Nobu breathed a sigh of relief. Through [Circle], Nobu could clearly feel that the Mimic, which had been broken into two pieces, was slowly sinking to the bottom of the water.

At that moment, the mimicry was split into two by the black hole he created, and the middle part was even swallowed by the black hole. The mimicry, which was missing part of its body, lost its mobility without any suspense.

Even if it can be restored to its original state, it may take quite a long time.

"Wow..."

Nobu's head came up from the water and he breathed in the thin air in the cave.

“How about underwater sports?”

A bright light shone on Nobu's face, and Mo Laowu's teasing voice reached his ears.

Nobu splashed in the water and swam to the shore, jumped onto the stone, stood next to Nitro, and took a breath.

"Umbrella's people should have blown up the place below, and also used explosives to kill many mimic eggs."

"But I speculate that there are still many mimic eggs and mimics that survived the explosion and just sank to the bottom of the water."

As he spoke, Nob drew a circle on the stone with the fingers of his left hand and set up a fourth-dimensional portal. He took off his wet tie, shoes, and socks and threw them into the fourth-dimensional portal.

"What should we do, President? We have no idea how deep this underwater abyss is. Do we want to go down?"

Norbu looked up at a plate of Nitro, who was rubbing his chin thoughtfully, and asked.

"Hoo ho ho... I guess there will be dedicated personnel to deal with the mimic eggs and the like." Nitro chuckled nonchalantly: "What I care about most now is where the super large mimic has gone."

"It would be great if there were people with abilities that could sense it over a wide range or track it over a long distance, so that we could know where it is."
