After understanding the gap, wanting to train in Nen first was a matter of course.
"Before teaching you Nen, you must first understand what Nen is." Law raised his index finger and explained, "So-called Nen is the ability to freely manipulate the life energy called 'Aura' that overflows from the body."
"Humans constantly emit minute amounts of life energy. Ordinary people cannot see Aura, nor can they control this overflowing, escaping energy. But Nen Users can not only control it, they can also use Aura to unleash superhuman power."
As he spoke, Law retracted his index finger, made a fist, and instantly released his Aura, concentrating it on his fist, causing it to glow with a dazzling light.
Even without injecting malice, when Aura is concentrated at a single point, its presence increases exponentially.
Although Kurapika couldn't see the Aura, at such close range, he imdiately sensed the danger and reacted instantly by stepping back.
"You can't see it, but you can sense it because I've gathered all the released Aura into my fist. The quantity increases, so the presence naturally becos stronger."
Law jumped down from the rock and, right in front of Kurapika, very slowly touched the rock with his fist.
Boom!
The rock instantly shattered into countless small stones, scattering across the ground.
"This is the destructive power amplified by Aura. You can imagine for yourself what would happen if I punched it with force?" Law dispersed the Aura gathered on his fist.
After this concrete explanation, Kurapika gained a deeper understanding of the terror of Nen Ability. It was even more shocking than when Law crushed a stone into powder before him.
The astonishnt on his face was hard to contain as he said with difficulty, "How can I learn to see Aura, and control it?"
Law explained, "Generally speaking, one can sense the presence of Aura through thods like ditation or seated Zen ditation, day after day. Once you can truly sense it, you can attempt to manipulate it."
"That is the most stable and secure path. However, there is another thod that can allow you to sense Aura imdiately, but it carries considerable risk."
Kurapika said without hesitation, "I choose the second thod."
Hearing this, Law was montarily stunned. Although he could predict Kurapika's choice, he hadn't even presented the options yet, and Kurapika had already unhesitatingly chosen the riskier latter option.
Looking at Kurapika's determined expression, Law rubbed his temple and nodded. "Understood. Before that, you need to rember more information about Nen."
"First, Know Ten, Understand Zetsu, Experience Ren, Achieve Hatsu..."
Law didn't rush to open Kurapika's Aura Nodes. Instead, he ticulously explained the basic information about Nen.
Kurapika was very intelligent, with mory and comprehension skills far above average. He rembered everything after hearing it once and understood the principle behind the second thod.
"I'm ready."
Kurapika took a deep breath, then took off his upper garnt.
Law moved behind Kurapika, his right palm hovering a few centiters away from Kurapika's back. He then said, "I'm starting."
"Mm." Kurapika nodded.
Law's right hand released Aura, enveloping Kurapika's body.
Instantly, Kurapika felt as if he were wrapped in a wave of heat, like countless hands pushing and pressing against every part of his body.
"Pay attention."
Law reminded him.
Before Kurapika could understand what was happening, his body felt as if it had been pierced by a violent air cannon. He shuddered violently and stumbled forward several steps.
"Huh?"
Kurapika steadied himself and imdiately saw the Aura swirling around his body, turbulent and agitated, like flas constantly leaping upwards.
At this mont, under the external influence of Law's interference, Kurapika's Aura Nodes were forcibly opened, putting him into a state of maximum Ren. His body's life energy was flowing out recklessly.
Kurapika showed no surprise. Without needing a reminder from Law, he imdiately closed his eyes and attempted to control the Aura wildly bursting forth from his body.
'Ten... Ten...'
Kurapika whispered inwardly, recalling what Law had said earlier: 'Imagine the Aura is a cloth, then wrap yourself up like a mummy.'
As that image surfaced in his mind, a bead of sweat the size of a bean dripped down Kurapika's forehead.
Law stood to the side, watching Kurapika's efforts.
Thirty seconds later, Law saw the flow of Aura around Kurapika's body noticeably calm down.
After one minute, Kurapika suppressed the chaotic flas of Aura leaping towards his head and truly entered the state of Ten.
Sensing the change, Kurapika slowly opened his eyes, stretched out his hands, and quietly observed the Aura flowing over them.
'One minute. Passable.'
Law thought to himself. Gon and Killua learned Ten in under ten seconds. Kurapika took one minute, so there was still a slight gap.
"Do you rember the Aura I released during the Hunter Exam?" Law said.
Kurapika nodded and said, "At that ti, it felt like an impassable wall."
"Right. You can think of it as a Nen Wall. Now, as long as you maintain Ten, you can break through that wall."
Law walked into the distance, stopping after ten ters, then turned to look at Kurapika.
"Co, try and experience the difference."
"Mm." Kurapika wore a serious expression.
Law opened his Aura Nodes and released a powerful Aura.
Kurapika's face changed slightly. Precisely because he now understood Ten, he could better appreciate Law's terrifying power.
He gritted his teeth, feeling the surging Aura coming at him like turbulent ocean waves.
"I can't get through."
Kurapika wanted to take a step forward, but his feet felt as if filled with lead, incredibly heavy. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move them.
"What's wrong?" Law asked, puzzled.
Kurapika said with difficulty, "I can't do it."
Law raised an eyebrow, withdrew his Aura, and Kurapika, like a released rubber band, shot forward, only to be caught by Law in ti.
Kurapika steadied himself and asked in doubts, "I'm certain I maintained Ten the entire ti. So why couldn't I get through?"
Law thought for a mont, then said seriously, "Maybe it's because I'm just too strong."
"…" Kurapika.
After learning Ten, the next step was Zetsu.
Once he could freely open and close his Aura Nodes, using Ren would follow naturally.
Having truly co into contact with Nen, Kurapika, under Law's guidance, imrsed his entire mind and spirit into it.
He needed to beco stronger quickly, to gain the power to judge the Phantom Troupe and reclaim his clansn's eyes.
Ti passed, and several hours went by.
Kurapika, exhausted, sat down on the ground, covered in sweat and feeling intensely hungry.
"Alright, rest for a while." Law glanced at the sky.
At that mont, soone erged from the forest carrying a large wooden box. It was Machi.
Seeing Machi arrive, Law smiled slightly. Her timing was perfect.
The wooden box contained dicinal food prepared by Shachmono, designed to aid training and beneficial for physical nurturing. Later, Law would also call Biscuit to have Cookies assist Kurapika's training.
With both thods working in tandem, they could provide Kurapika with an excellent training environnt.
Kurapika also saw Machi and was imdiately stunned.
"This is Machi, forr mber number 10 of the Phantom Troupe." Law looked at Kurapika and introduced her calmly.
Kurapika's body jolted, his eyes widening dramatically, imdiately shifting into Scarlet Eye mode, his face contorting with anger. He hadn't clearly heard the key word… 'forr'.
