118 Chapter 118 Gotcha

If the chin received heavy blow, the vibrations generated by the impact force will propagate along the mandible through bone pathways, stimulating the cerebellum and brainstem, leading to effects such as concussion, dizziness, shock, etc.

And even if there is no shock, there is a high probability of causing dizziness from the punch.

This moment is the perfect opportunity to press the advantage.

However, 'Moses' did not pursue, but took a step back, dodging the hidden pink Aura that was thrown by Hisoka as he flew into the air.

The reason Hisoka could counterattack after being hit is because, before being hit, he used the right leg to kick down, causing a slight shift in the upper body position.

It's this subtle shift that caused the punch that should have hit his chin to ultimately land on his cheek near his lips.

Without getting dizzy, Hisoka could naturally use his rich combat experience to throw out Bungee Gum towards 'Moses' at the last moment.

If 'Moses' had decided to press the advantage and pursue after him, then this move can trick 'Moses' and turned the table instantly.

However, 'Moses' realized it and timely avoided this sneaky move.

The sticky pink Aura helplessly fell empty.

"Ah…"

When Hisoka, who was flying into the air, saw this scene, his emotions suddenly soared, causing his pupils to tremble rapidly.

"You are really amazing!"

Hisoka did not hesitate to praise Moses. Precisely because of this, there was value in destroying him.

Adjusting his posture in mid-air, Hisoka steadily several meters away, and a swelling bump appeared on the left side of his cheek.

In this round of confrontation, it was his complete defeat.

'Indeed…'

'Hurrying to attack without knowing the opponent's Nen Ability is a very risky behavior.'

Hisoka leaned forward and his right arm reached back to hide the playing cards between his fingers.

From landing to reorganizing his posture, his eyes never left 'Moses'.

'The ability to instantly change body structure...'

'Is it an Enhancement-Type or Conjuration-Type?'

The former strengthens the body's flexibility with Nen to achieve movements that go against the normal human body's structure.

The latter uses the properties of Nen to conjure the body into some soft object.

Although such an approach can certainly reduce the difficulty of Conjuration to a certain extent, only few Conjurers will do it this way.

Most Conjurers only intuitively consider what objects they want to conjure, and will not turn their own bodies into carriers for Conjuration Abilities.

Unless the desired ability must be conjured through the body.

Among them, the most typical and special one is undoubtedly 'Perfect Girl Seven Transformations' of Zoldyck Family's butler, Tsubone, which can use the body as a carrier to conjure into a variety of vehicles with excellent functions.

'He's most likely Conjurer.'

Hisoka made a judgment in an instant and slowly stretched out his tongue to lick the bump on his lip.

There is only one basis for this inference.

That was the power of 'Moses's' punch just now, which only swollen his face, but did not cause any more damage.

If it is a frontal hit of an Enhancer, it would never have only this level of power.

In a sense, Hisoka's judgment was not wrong.

The 'Moses' standing in front of him is indeed a Conjured existence.

"Is he analyzing?"

Moses, who was hiding in the dark, saw Hisoka standing still for a second or two through the vision shared with the shadow clone.

In his opinion, Hisoka should be analyzing the details of the shadow clone's ability to suddenly change its body structure.

'Completely unaware of the essence, then analyzing the shadow clone...'

'It's quite interesting.'

While Moses was thinking like this, he used his consciousness to order the shadow clone to attack Hisoka.

No fear of pain, no need to consider the threat of death.

Attack without any scruples...

On the battle's side…

The controlled 'Moses' attacked Hisoka with the style of Enhancer, rushing straight towards him without any reservation.

This behavior can be said like shouting 'I am an Enhancer'. And it makes Hisoka, who had just reached a conclusion, hesitate for a moment in his thoughts.

However, Hisoka still firmly believed in his judgment.

Swish-

'Moses' rushed in front of Hisoka, fully embodying the style of Enhancer, and threw a punch at Hisoka without leaving any room for defense.

Faced with such an attack, Hisoka only needed to dodge 'Moses's' unreserved frontal attack, and then launch a counterattack when 'Moses' had exhausted its old strength and had yet to regenerate its new strength.

And he did just that.

First, he dodged the punch from 'Moses' and came to the right side of 'Moses'.

Immediately after, he clenched his right fist, striking at the right temple of 'Moses'.

However, just when the Nen-infused fist was about to hit 'Moses's' temple, half of 'Moses's' head concaved into a "C" shape.

Hisoka's fist crossed over from the side of 'Moses's' changing head.

But Hisoka, who had already suffered a loss before, was mentally prepared.

At almost the same time, he raised his knee and fiercely launched into the right side of 'Moses's' ribs.

That was a blind spot in 'Moses's' field of vision.

Because 'Moses' had just thrown a straight punch, his raised shoulders blocked part of his sight on the right side, and Hisoka's position at this moment was exactly on the right side of 'Moses'.

At this moment, the knee bump launched by Hisoka towards 'Moses' did find a tricky angle.

Unfortunately-

'Moses' seemed to be able to see the situation beyond the blind spot of his field of vision. His left hand, filled with abundant Nen, directly passed through his right shoulder and armpit, accurately blocking Hisoka's knee.

At the same time, 'Moses's' straightened right arm suddenly bent, elbowing forcefully towards Hisoka's chest.

Hisoka's eyes narrowed slightly, and his closing left palm thrust upward towards 'Moses's' elbow that was striking towards his chest.

His speed was faster, so he is capable of interrupting 'Moses's' elbow attack, and he also has a high possibility of seriously injuring 'Moses's' right arm.

But in this instant burst of intense battle, 'Moses's' elbow strike underwent another structural change, and actually shrunk in half in size, creating space for Hisoka's thrusting palm to pass through.

As if combining the characteristics of Observation Haki and Elementalization, 'Moses's' ability made Hisoka's countermeasures consecutively fail.

So, 'Moses's' elbow strike landed on Hisoka's chest.

Bang!

Accompanied by a muffled sound, Hisoka's body immediately slid backwards for five or six meters, and a trace of blood seeped out from the corner of his lips.

After a successful hit, 'Moses' stepped forward fiercely, and his body shot towards Hisoka again like an arrow from the string, seemingly not willing to give Hisoka any chance to catch his breath.

Having defeated twice by 'Moses's' ability, Hisoka, however, grinned.

He slowly raised his right hand, bringing together his index and middle fingers, and a pink sticky thread extended from his fingers to 'Moses's' chin.

When was it stuck?

The answer is-

It was the thrusting palm that attacked 'Moses's' elbow from below.

Because Hisoka expected that 'Moses' would use the ability to change his body structure again, allowing his thrusting palm to 'penetrate' through the defense...

So from the very beginning, Hisoka has anticipated this situation and released his Bungee Gum accordingly.

In this intense battle where there was no room for the slightest negligence, he simply and easily stuck his Aura on 'Moses's' chin.

This was the most elusive and challenging aspect of the flexible and versatile Bungee Gum.

While it was possible to use Gyo at any time to discern the traces of the sticky thread, but during high-intensity battle, if a portion of the Aura was continuously concentrated on the eyes...

It means that the Aura available for flexible manipulation during the battle would be less than the opponent's.

"Gotcha, now…"

Hisoka revealed a sinister smile.
