Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits

The Pinhead Illumi made a grasping motion in the air.

Any target struck by his Wire Needle Nen would become a puppet under his control.

But in the next instant.

His corpse-like face went completely blank.

Riku was still slowly walking towards him.

Ineffective?

Why!

His Nen failed?

How is that possible!

He grasped again!

Riku still was not affected in the slightest.

But the problem was that the Nen needle was clearly stuck into the opponent's body.

Although it didn't pierce very deep, it was absolutely enough to control the opponent's body.

This scene completely shattered Illumi's understanding.

"What are you looking at? Trying to say hello to daddy?"

Riku smiled.

The muscles all over his body suddenly tensed.

[Iron-Plated Tank] (Gold)!

[Absolute Will] (Red)!

[Divine Power] (Red)!

Are you freaking kidding me!

He had slaughtered hundreds of magical beast pigs to stack up Gold-tier plate armor, not to mention Netero's Red-tier Willpower trait.

Let alone controlling his body, he could even forcefully control his own neural reflexes with his willpower!

Back then, Netero could even control his severed leg to automatically close the wound!

Your little sewing needles!

Too small!

They can't prick me!

Riku grinned fiercely.

Explosive Step!

Charging a heavy punch!

His right fist once again became boiling hot and scorching!

In just a blinding flash, he charged right in front of the Pinhead Illumi.

A punch fell straight toward his head.

The air rubbed together, producing a sonic boom.

Because he exerted so much force with his entire body, the wire needles Illumi had stuck into him were directly snapped!

The Pinhead Illumi's expression finally changed drastically.

Boom—

A violent explosion.

Scorching waves of air rolled out.

It was as if he had been hit head-on by a missile.

This punch was even more violent than the previous one.

Several unlucky trees nearby were instantly blown and snapped.

The Pinhead Illumi was sent flying like a sandbag for dozens of meters. The trees along the way, thick enough for two people to embrace, were snapped one after another.

A blood-stained trail was scraped out on the ground.

Wisps of blue smoke rose from Riku's fist.

The scorching red gradually dissipated, returning to calm.

"Weakling!!"

He spat toward the end of the distant trench.

[Ding! You defeated Illumi. 10% chance. Automatically copying trait...]

[Ding! You heard the call of Strong Luck. Luck exploding...]

[Ding! Copy successful. Congratulations, you have obtained [Narcolepsy] (Green)...]

[Ding! You heard the double chorus of Strong Luck. Double Luck explosion... Obtained an extra Strong Draw chance.]

[Ding! Forcible copy successful. Congratulations, you have obtained [Taijutsu] (Gold).]

...

A voice like heavenly music rang out in Riku's mind.

Hmm!?

Badass!

Awesome!!

Riku could not help but feel wild joy in his heart.

Participating in this exam was absolutely a massive, bloody profit.

Especially [Strong Luck] (Purple)!

This thing was simply his lucky star.

Although it was only a Purple-tier trait.

Among all his traits, it didn't look that conspicuous, but at crucial moments, it had already made him feel incredibly satisfied.

This time, it was even a double burst!

Simply super luck!

As the system's voice faded, countless pieces of information and invisible energy flooded into Riku's limbs and bones.

[Taijutsu] (Gold)!

As top-tier assassins, the Zoldyck family's mastery in honing their physical attributes was astonishing.

To attain this level of taijutsu, they had endured unimaginably grueling training.

But now.

All of this had paved the way for Riku.

The only pity was...

Riku could already see the end of the trench was a burrow.

The Pinhead Illumi had actually dug into the ground and ran away.

Quite a bit of blood was left at the entrance of the hole.

"As expected of a top-tier assassin family, even their method of escaping is so unique."

Riku sneered.

If you couldn't beat me this time, you will never be able to beat me in the future.

What a pitiful person!

Satisfying.

Riku picked up the ID badge Illumi had dropped on the ground.

He had finished farming his points.

And even got a Gold trait.

Feeling wonderful.

He needed to find a chance to take down Hisoka.

That guy's abilities were pretty good too.

It would be best if he could force out his Nen ability trait.

Of course.

Hisoka might be a lot more troublesome.

Because the reason Illumi lost so quickly was entirely due to him being in a disguised state, unable to bring out one hundred percent of his combat power.

Moreover, he made a massive error in his judgment of Riku.

Added to the fact that Riku didn't have a habit of trash-talking.

He went all out right from the start.

Illumi thought Riku only had 10 combat power, but as a result, Riku opened fire at full capacity...

He came out with 100% firepower.

Illumi brought out 30% firepower thinking he could safely block it, and as a result... he blew up.

Two consecutive full-power blasts.

Illumi exploded on the spot.

People from Whale Island were honest, straightforward folks. If they didn't have to flap their lips, they wouldn't. If they could just beat someone to death directly, they would do it directly.

Right.

This island was too big, and he didn't know where his radar had run off to.

Wait.

Maybe, she would be waiting for him over there!

Thinking of something, Riku turned and left.

Only...

Looking at his right sleeve, which was completely blown to shreds, Riku felt a bit helpless.

[Divine Power] (Red) was too strong.

It constantly caused his sleeves to explode, and even a lot of his upper garment was ruined, exposing his perfect, cheetah-like muscle lines.

It seemed he needed to prepare a few more sets of clothes in the future. The problem was this world didn't have spatial rings.

But it wouldn't be bad if he could plunder a spatial-type trait later on.

It would be a great helper for home and travel.

...

By the ship.

Several waves of people had already disembarked.

Ponzu waited tremblingly beside the ship.

She hadn't received any instructions from Riku, but her understanding of her own position was very accurate: she was Riku's tool person.

She had to be obedient.

Moreover.

Everyone on the ship had heard the massive explosion coming from the distant forest.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on over there? There's such a huge noise, it sounded like a bomb."

"You can't bring weapons like bombs into this exam. Did someone break the rules?"

"No way? I didn't see anyone carrying a bomb among the group that just disembarked."

"Do you guys remember that direction seems to be where that monster Riku headed?"

"Don't worry about it so much, hurry up and escape into the forest. If we run into those monsters later, we are definitely dead meat."

...

The candidates discussed, not daring to delay any longer.

Because there was a madman who spawn-camped the bridge earlier!

These candidates disembarked one after another. Each of them glanced at Ponzu, but realizing the badge in her hand belonged to that monster and was only worth one point, they all left.

"Ponzu! Aren't you going into the forest?"

Gon-kun and the others finally disembarked.

They were completely at the back of the line.

"I... I am waiting for Lord Riku..."

Ponzu said nervously.

"I will head out first. Let Riku-nii know," Killua-kun, with his hands in his pockets, narrowed his eyes slightly at the forest ahead and left directly.

He came to participate in this exam to temper himself.

Not to get a license under Riku's protection, otherwise, such persistence would have no meaning for him.

"Me too, you guys be careful."

Kurapika also chose to leave.

"Ah, these guys. Then I will leave too. Ponzu, aren't you leaving?"

Leorio looked around, didn't see Riku's figure, and chose to leave.

"I... I have to wait for Lord Riku..."

Ponzu gritted her teeth.

"Then... then I will wait for Riku-nii with you."

"Gon-kun, Riku-nii should have already gone deep into the jungle. If we want to find him, we have to go inside!"

Leorio reminded him.

The two waited for a few more minutes, and upon not seeing Riku's figure, they also chose to leave.

The island was very large.

Plus, the candidates were all acting separately.

To get enough points, it was also best to act separately. If they teamed up, they probably wouldn't be able to find enough badges!

By the ship, only Ponzu was left, waiting anxiously.
