Phinks added a comnt, then curiously asked, "How did you guys et Morin?"
"Well, that's a long story. We t during the Hunter Exam..."
The five of them, holding the Greed Island ga consoles, chatted as they walked towards the hotel where Gon and the others were staying. As they talked, their relationship gradually beca more harmonious.
anwhile, in another luxurious room elsewhere.
"Your ga has been bought, Ging," Morin said with a smile, holding the phone.
"Of course I know! It's all because of the items you gave Gon!" Ging's voice on the other end was filled with helplessness, as if he had swallowed a fly and was left with a bitter taste.
"I originally thought he wouldn't be able to buy the ga, and would have to enter by being hired by soone else. Then, once he cleared the ga and stood before , I could have a good laugh at him, you know?"
Ging muttered under his breath, "But I didn't expect you to ruin it all."
With Ging's intelligence network, he had already thoroughly understood everything that happened at the Nampius auction.
Even the check Gon handed over to the auction house had quickly reached Ging through the organizers.
It wouldn't take long for that check to end up in Ging's hands through various connections and ans. Ging was quite curious about the expenditure Gon used to purchase the Greed Island item.
With Ging's financial resources and influence, obtaining that check wasn't difficult. Morin wasn't concerned about this; he was curious about:
"What do you plan to do once you get the check?"
"This is the 360 billion Jenny that Gon gambled his future on. While it's nothing to you, for Gon, it might be a fortune he could never earn in his lifeti."
"Indeed, that kid's mind is simple, and his thoughts are straightforward. He can't compare to in that regard!!" Ging shalessly agreed.
"So, I plan to keep this check!!" Ging's tone beca playful and eager. "When that guy cos to , I'll hold the check between two fingers and wave it in front of Gon."
"Let him know, your dad is still your dad, hehehe!!"
Thinking of this particularly amusing prank, Ging let out a peculiar chuckle over the phone. He was actually looking forward to eting Gon now.
Or rather, he was anticipating what kind of expression Gon would have when he saw the check in his hand.
"You really are sothing..." Morin refrained from comnting on Ging's peculiar interests and mischievous nature.
However?
"Weren't the seven Greed Island consoles at the Nampius auction released by you?" Morin asked directly.
"Yes, they were." Ging admitted openly, with nothing to hide.
"Since Gon already has the ring and mory card, I thought I'd give him a suitable chance at the ga."
"I just didn't expect you to show up in the middle, but it's not a big deal."
"Doan and the others were getting tired of staying on Greed Island and were eager to see soone else clear it. So, I went along with it and released the extra consoles."
"In the end, the one who clears the ga will be Gon, my son. It also satisfies Doan and the others' wishes."
Ging spoke with a straight face about his narcissistic thoughts. He was confident that Gon would be the one to clear the ga, primarily because Gon was his son. This was Ging's trust in Gon.
If Gon couldn't even achieve this, then his path as a Hunter wouldn't have much success. After all, every mber of the Freecss family was extraordinary.
In his generation, they'd made unimaginable nas and achievents in the world. Ging didn't hold himself as a benchmark for Gon, but he hoped Gon could accomplish what he had done in the past.
For example, obtaining a Hunter License at twelve, which Gon did. Then achieving success at thirteen. If all went well, Gon could have followed Kite and transford into a new Hunter through experience.
Unfortunately—
"Apart from releasing Greed Island, you must have sothing to do with Battera, right?" Morin continued to ask, "Don't tell Battera's desperate collection of Greed Island and search for players to clear the ga has nothing to do with you."
"Hahaha, you really have a keen nose." Ging laughed, indirectly admitting to it.
"Battera's lover was afflicted by a Nen curse, and I just took advantage of the opportunity."
---
"Of course, the fact that his lover was cursed with Nen has nothing to do with ; it was done by his enemies," Ging clarified, distancing himself from the situation, and continued, "At that ti, Battera was desperately trying anything and everything to no avail."
"In his mont of despair, I provided him with information about the reward for clearing Greed Island..."
"And that's why he's been scouring the world for Greed Island, right?" Morin interjected, "Your sches really do link together seamlessly."
"It was just a coincidence," Ging said with a hint of modesty. "This way, it also provides Gon with a path to Greed Island."
Ah, indeed, there's no such thing as a miraculous breakthrough through hard work.
Isn't it just that your predecessors have arranged everything for you in advance?
So, their future destinies have long been marked with a price or a sign in secret. It's just that they themselves are unaware of it...
"If Gon can clear the ga, I might consider using so ans to remove the Nen curse on Battera's lover. But if conditions don't allow it, there's nothing I can do."
Although Ging used Battera to achieve the goal of letting Gon play the ga, without Greed Island, there wouldn't be hope for Battera either. The two can be said to owe nothing to each other.
However, as he spoke, Ging suddenly rembered sothing and his tone beca a bit tense: "You're not planning to enter the ga and help Gon clear it, are you?"
Morin: "…Do you think I'm that bored?!!"
He rolled his eyes and said, "I've been on Greed Island before and know it inside out. Going there for a little vacation is one thing, but helping your son clear it? What are you dreaming about?"
"That's good~" Ging wasn't upset by Morin's sarcasm; instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"In Greed Island, if nothing unexpected happens, Gon should be able to get so good training. But if there's outside interference, the effect might be greatly diminished."
Hmm, that's not entirely true. Morin thought of his master, Ging's own ntor, Biscuit Krueger. A good external force can actually bring about even better results.
For Gon and the others, having Biscuit Krueger's guidance would help them learn faster and better. But as for other external influences besides Biscuit Krueger...
Morin thought of Feitan and Phinks. Hmm, he hoped their involvent wouldn't cause any butterfly effects.
"By the way," Morin rembered sothing, "I sent a female prisoner into Greed Island to Leiza. How's she doing lately?"
He suddenly recalled that he had captured Leroute and used the "Arbitrary Cannon" to send her to Leiza. Only now did he rember her existence.
"You sent a female prisoner? I didn't know about that. The island's managent is handled by Doan, List, and Leiza. I'm not really in the loop," Ging replied.
"But since they haven't sent any ssages, I assu nothing's gone wrong on the island... Alright, I've got other matters to attend to, so I'll hang up now."
As the person in charge of Greed Island, Ging irresponsibly passed the buck and then hung up the phone. Morin shook his head and put his phone away.
"The Nampius auction didn't have anything interesting, and I'm not planning to participate in Greed Island. So, I can take this ti to relax a bit," Morin mused, watching Baise walk out of the bathroom barefoot, with a knowing smile on his lips.
The Nampius auction officially concluded on September 10th. Battera purchased all the ga consoles, spending over 200 billion Jenny, consuming more than half of his assets.
However, after acquiring the gas, he announced a screening event on that day. One-star Hunter and professional gar Jezz Jurela would select a group of skilled players to tackle the ga.
Among them was a petite and lovely girl who, in reality, was Ging's ntor, Biscuit Krueger, in disguise. But all of this had little to do with Killua and Gon at the mont.
"Well then, goodbye everyone. You're always welco to visit my school. We have plenty of study partners to accompany you," Leorio said, waving goodbye and winking. "That's a great perk!"
Leorio, preparing for various dical qualification exams, wasn't planning to join Gon and Killua in the ga. He had his own goals and dreams to pursue.
Although getting into school wasn't a problem, studying required the brain he wasn't particularly good at using, which was his biggest fear during the Hunter Exam's written test.
This aspect required real knowledge, unlike the Hunter Exam, where the focus was solely on passing and obtaining a Hunter License.
Being a doctor was Leorio's pursuit, and he wouldn't cut any corners in this regard. So, facing the mountain of study materials, Leorio felt like his head was about to explode.
