JOJO hiding in the hunter world
#165 - :Fool
"Mr. Poirot, you truly have a keen eye. I didn't expect to find flaws in these areas.
I was indeed present that day. That man's strength was so-so, but he was a manipulator-type ability user. It took a long time to find him."
Poirot nodded, indicating understanding.
"You weren't lying just now, and I'll be frank: what you see isn't necessarily the truth. You know, it's hard to know a person's heart from their face. At least, our Hunter Association can't possibly believe your side of the story."
Damn it, why are they so persistent?
Jon could only bite the bullet and reply, "I believe what I saw. I know you have very powerful hackers. If I dared to communicate, I'd definitely be tracked!"
Poirot was actually planning to do just that, betting that Jon hadn't studied reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance. However, thanks to his previous life's exposure to spy films, he knew a little about it.
"If you don't trust me, that's fine. We don't even need contact information. We just need you to talk to us, to confirm the danger of the 'Passion' organization.
If it's confirmed, the Passion organization can even exist legally, and our association can cooperate with you.
He needed to find a solution quickly. Jon reached into the lining of his clothes and touched his throwing knife.
But he didn't dare to run away just like that. He had to resolve the matter, or else he might spend the rest of his life being hunted. Throughout the world, in all the countries under the Hunter Association, there might be nowhere for him to stand.
I just wanted to live a peaceful life like a plant. Why do you have to disrupt my daily life again and again?
Jon was a little agitated, so he simply ignored the consequences and made up a reason.
"Do you know that continent? The place called the Dark Continent."
Poirot and Potterwhite exchanged a look, their expressions hardening.
Seeing this, Jon couldn't help but click his tongue. He didn't expect the Dark Continent to be so effective, instantly intimidating them. If I don't deceive you until you're crippled, I'll admit defeat.
Currently, information about the Dark Continent is taboo. All related news has been blocked, and very little information has leaked out. Most people in the world don't even know there's such a place.
Because the V5 and Netero intentionally block it, news of the Dark Continent is only known to high-ranking officials of some major countries and some hunters with the means to find out.
As a member of the Zodiacs, the Serpent, Potterwhite naturally knew about the Dark Continent. After all, that bastard Ging had always been obsessed with betting with the Chairman about something related to the Dark Continent.
He was also able to access a very small amount of information about the Dark Continent, but it was too little. He only knew that it was very dangerous and outside of their world.
Potterwhite was a terrorist hunter and wasn't very interested in the Dark Continent. But Chairman Netero and Ging were very enthusiastic about everything related to the Dark Continent.
One wanted to explore it, the other wanted to cover it up.
However, Potterwhite also knew that this matter had exceeded his expectations. The Passion organization might not be an organization of zealous youths, nor a terrorist organization.
Things weren't that simple anymore.
Poirot had also learned a little about it before. He knew there was such a place. He once had a request that was related to the Dark Continent.
It was a case of arresting a terrifying cult. This cult was extremely crazy and had many anti-human tenets.
However, when he destroyed the cult's base, he examined the notes of their leader and founder and discovered their sacred object—a withered snake skin.
Everyone who approached this snake skin went mad, losing their minds and wanting to kill.
Later, it was handed over to the Hunter Association for safekeeping, and Chairman Netero even summoned him specifically because of this matter.
It was indeed a snake skin, but this snake was not a product of this world. It came from the mysterious Dark Continent.
Its original form was known as one of the disasters of the Dark Continent. Its original form was just a rattlesnake with two tails.
Its most terrifying ability was that it could emit a murderous aura that could make the people of an entire country lose their minds and kill each other.
However, he also signed a confidentiality agreement not to disclose related information. After this incident, he also learned some information about the Dark Continent.
The information about the Dark Continent fascinated him, but he could only give up due to a lack of channels.
He didn't expect that the purpose of this Passion organization was actually related to the Dark Continent.
"What exactly do you want to do? That place is an absolute taboo. The five major powers will jointly hunt you down. Tell me, what do you know!"
Potterwhite couldn't hold back anymore. Information about the Dark Continent could cause social unrest and was much more dangerous than ordinary terrorists.
Jon didn't expect Potterwhite to react so strongly. Was the news of a Dark Continent worth the V5's full pursuit?
Jon had no idea, but he couldn't reveal his ignorance now and needed to find a way to make up for it.
"The Passion organization wants to go to a place called the Dark Continent. They want to find a possibility, an answer, but going to this place is very troublesome."
Jon told the truth. Although he had the System as a cheat, he didn't trust the System even now. Who arranged his transmigration, and who created the System?
What exactly was the purpose of that mastermind? How could he go back, or was the memory of Earth an illusion, or was he walking in an illusion right now?
Jon had a feeling that the answers to these questions were all in the mysterious Dark Continent.
"What possibility? What answer?"
"The answer about the [system], as for the possibility, I don't know."
"System, what is that?"
"If I knew everything, why would I risk going to such a place?" Jon rolled his eyes. Fortunately, there were no system novels in this world, and they didn't think in that direction.
"Going to the Dark Continent is very dangerous. Without a professional team, it's basically certain death, and returning from the Dark Continent will bring back cursed objects. It's a Pandora's Box, full of riches with countless secrets and wealth, but also with terrifying curses and creatures."
"To date, humans have brought five major disasters from the Dark Continent, namely the Breeding Beast Pap, the Ancient Weapon Gold and Silver Ingot, the Undying Disease Zobae, the Twin-Tailed Snake Hellbell, and the Gaseous Lifeform Ai.
Each one can severely damage human civilization. Fortunately, they have now been isolated and controlled."
"Then why do you still want to…"
Success! Jon breathed a sigh of relief. Poirot clearly showed some panic when he heard about the five major disasters, although he immediately covered it up, he was indeed flustered.
Poirot was not a simple person. He definitely knew about the five major disasters.
Jon paused and opened his mouth, "Don't be so serious, do you believe in prophecies?"
"Prophecies?" They didn't react for a moment.
"That's right, the prophecy says that all the answers are in that place, and in five or six years, there will be this opportunity.
The prophecy says that Chairman Netero will die in a battle with a creature from the Dark Continent, and then a new era will come.
Going to the Dark Continent will become a major trend, and the V5 will also bow to the trend, and countless adventurers will flock to that unknown continent.
Passion will silently wait for the arrival of the new era."
He wasn't lying, Poirot knew, but he really hoped Jon was lying.
"How do you guarantee that the Passion organization won't…"
"The boss of Passion, Bucciarati, said that he will wait as patiently as Beyond and Ging. He also entrusted me to tell Chairman Netero this sentence, and the Chairman should understand."
This was all his calculation, and at the same time, his footsteps were constantly moving backwards.
No one noticed his small movements.
"This is my escape route, I hope you can convey the message."
"Jotaro, take me away!"
In an instant, Jon disappeared before their eyes, leaving no trace.
