JOJO hiding in the hunter world

Inside a towering building, countless people come and go every day.

Within this modern building, there exists a small, isolated room.

The interior decoration is completely different from the surrounding steel and concrete style, resembling more a traditional house from decades past.

Light brown cabinets and traditional Japanese tatami mats, similar to the 'kang' beds in the North.

The floor is lined with redwood, and the tatami mats are covered with handmade cool mats.

Hanging behind is a large 'Heart' character written in Chinese calligraphy, its strokes vigorous and powerful, displaying the style of a master, already framed.

An old man is kneeling on a cushion, flipping through documents on a small table, reading ten lines at a glance, his brow furrowed.

After a long while, he puts down the thick documents; Netero has finally finished his official duties.

He narrows his eyes, comfortably stretching his back, his joints and bones emitting cracking sounds.

Netero exhales easily, leans slightly forward, and pours himself a small cup of tea into his small purple clay teapot. He also presses a small button on the table.

They know that they can't overthrow Netero with this. Netero has been working in the Hunter Association for decades, and almost all hunters respect Netero very much.

Even if Netero is removed, no one can replace him. Those few candidates are not simple characters, and it's not certain that they can convince everyone.

They just want to knock Netero around a bit, telling him not to mess around, or else there will be consequences next time.

That's roughly the meaning. No one said it explicitly, but they all beat around the bush.

Many people have the same meaning, but Netero still answered everyone's calls one by one, responding to their questions.

This is his duty as the chairman of the Hunter Association, and it is also his self-discipline.

In fact, no one dares to punish Netero. Netero is a person who has experienced that era, a remnant of the era, with V5's unspeakable dark history.

They are also afraid that Netero will fight to the death. They don't have the means and ability to subdue Netero instantly, although Netero is unlikely to expose their little secrets.

Netero is a shrewd person, how could he be scared by this group of children? You can say what you want, but I'll dare to do it again next time.

What you said is right, I will definitely not let you find out next time.

In fact, the five major countries are also guilty. They secretly attacked the descendants of 'Dark' behind the Hunter Association's back, which is not honorable in itself.

In fact, this matter has far less impact than the Phantom Troupe's escape last time. Edward is dangerous, but he is already dead, and the government can easily suppress the matter.

The Phantom Troupe really ran away. If they commit crimes next time, the media will still question them, and it won't be suppressed.

Edward is more terrifying than the Phantom Troupe, but the casualties caused this time are actually not as great as those caused by the Phantom Troupe.

Edward is actually quite reasonable, not randomly using his abilities, unlike the Phantom Troupe, a bunch of killing machines, who cause rivers of blood to flow as soon as they appear.

By today, this matter is almost over.

Only the final remaining problem remains...

Ding, with a click, the door is opened, and the person outside is changing shoes.

After a few seconds, a figure walks past the screen painted with flowers and birds.

A slender and upright figure appears before Netero's eyes, wearing loose-fitting clothes, draped in a brown coat, with gloves on his left hand.

This person is Jon, oh no, it's Jotaro.

With a slightly displeased expression, he intends to suppress Netero from the beginning.

"Little Jotaro, sit, sit down and talk," Netero makes a gesture of invitation.

Jotaro doesn't stand on ceremony and sits down opposite Netero.

Jotaro raises his left hand, rolls up his sleeve, takes off his glove, revealing a white plastic prosthetic limb.

Jotaro puts the prosthetic limb on the table, looking at Netero.

"You didn't say that Greenland Prison had such dangerous characters. Look, I've lost a hand..."

Jotaro is pouring out his grievances, all of which are sincere expressions.

Working for the boss, not only did he lose a hand, but he also lost most of his lifespan. Who could stand it?

Jotaro naturally has complaints in his heart. In fact, what he mainly resents is fate, that dog thief.

All sorts of accidents happen around him every time. Jotaro feels that he has been arranged, and Netero doesn't have this ability.

Halfway through speaking, Jotaro also pours out the information from the file bag, which contains Jotaro's medical examination certificates.

He now just wants to get a quick buck from Netero, this big landlord.

"I've heard about your matter from Ward, and I understand. I will pay for your medical expenses and the cost of the prosthetic limb, and then give you 5 billion Jenny."

"Only 5 billion? I've sold my life for the Association, I've shed blood for the Association, don't chill our hearts."

"Of course, it's not just that. I'm now appointing you as a one-star crime hunter, and you can also choose any five prosthetic hands from the prosthetic limb manual, and I'll reimburse you."

"Not enough, my lifespan is only ten years at most, can't..."

"Do you know the value of the one-star hunter title? With this star, your worth is dozens of times higher than before. They may have to spend more money to hire you for missions.

And the one-star hunter is certified by the Association. More wealthy people like to hire hunters with star ratings in similar situations, and the value is far more than tens of billions of Jenny.

Those few most expensive prosthetic hands also cost 700 million Jenny, and they are still priceless. Every year, a large number of people ask him to customize prosthetic limbs.

Just based on you wanting to make an appointment with that master, you'll have to wait in line until at least next year. I've already asked him to give priority to you, and as you get older, the money for prosthetic limb repair and updates will also be paid by me.

Adding all of this up, it's also worth tens of billions, how about it?"

Thinking about it this way, it's almost enough, but I can definitely scam a little more. Anyway, Netero doesn't have many years to live, so I might as well benefit...

"Stop acting, you already wanted to agree just now."

Damn it, acting in front of an acting emperor was discovered, which is why Jotaro hates the Hunter World so much. Isn't there a kind of intelligence-reducing halo?

"Actually, I originally wanted to give you a piece of information..."

"What kind of information?" Jotaro is a little curious.

"Oh, I originally wanted you to solve this problem..."

"No, you were the one who made me lose my hand last time," Jotaro refuses righteously.

"Have you heard of something that can be eaten to achieve immortality?"

Jotaro takes a breath of cold air, "Could it be the legendary Tang Monk meat?"

Hearing about immortality, Jotaro unconsciously thinks of Tang Monk meat. He was deeply brainwashed by the 86 version of Journey to the West when he was young, and he still has sequelae.

Jotaro is shocked. Immortality, as the ultimate dream of mankind, attracts countless dignitaries.

There have been stories and rumors of immortality since ancient times.

What Pengzu lived to be eight hundred years old, Qin Shihuang searched for immortal islands, Tang Taizong swallowed elixir, etc., but all the emperors who pursued longevity in historical records have turned into a pile of loess.

All dynasties have become ruins, and the legend of immortality has always existed in human history.

But those are just folk legends with untraceable origins. No real longevity person who can surpass the limits of human beings has ever appeared.

But this world is not the original world. This is a world where psychic power exists, so maybe it really exists.

He now has the method of longevity, but he disdains to use the bloodline of the Pillar Men with such great flaws. He still likes to bask in the sun.

But Netero said that there is a method of longevity that can solve his physical problems.

With this, even if the ten-year period arrives, Jotaro still hasn't collected the perfect creature training package, and he doesn't have to bow down to the darkness.

But it is obvious that Netero doesn't get Jotaro's point, and he doesn't know what Jotaro is talking about.

The Kakin Kingdom also has folk tales similar to Journey to the West, but without Wu Cheng'en's collection, organization, and reprocessing, the stories are more scattered, and it's normal for Netero not to have heard of them.

"Fountain of Youth? Or elixir of life?"

"Neither. I don't even know if this elixir of life exists. You have to determine this yourself. Have you heard of..."
