Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits

Inside the game world.

A ray of morning sunlight spilled down.

Riku looked at Shizuku and Machi, who were sleeping soundly in his arms. The taste of this sandwich was quite nice.

The game world was essentially his backyard, controllable entirely through his will.

As for the real world, he only needed to arrange a Nen Beast clone.

Riku's figure vanished from the spot.

Shizuku and Machi gradually woke up, but the events of the previous night were still vividly imprinted in their minds.

The two women sat there blankly.

...

The next day.

Yorknew City.

At the Southernpeace Auction venue.

Riku, Killua, and Gon had arrived.

Because the three of them planned to enter the Greed Island game, and they had received information that relevant game cards were being sold at this auction venue!

As expected of a large-scale auction second only to the previous Mafia auction!

Riku couldn't help but sigh. The Mafia in Yorknew City had been mostly dealt with, and the remaining three Dons were now completely submissive.

The members of the Phantom Troupe had become like stray dogs, and had even fled beyond Riku's perception range.

Currently, the only ones still alive were Phinks, Bonolenov, Chrollo, and Hisoka. The rest had all been banned, or rather, they had fallen into the Gaming Phone and become Riku's personal playthings.

Especially Chrollo and Hisoka, there hadn't been a single trace of them lately.

There was no longer any need to expend too much effort on them; the Phantom Troupe existed in name only.

Even if those guys wanted to come and cause trouble for him later, they would just be delivering themselves to his doorstep.

"Wow! What a huge auction venue!! Riku... we might not have enough money!"

Gon was somewhat worried.

Because the starting auction price for a single game card was already as high as eight or nine billion, and now they would need at least over twenty billion...

Kurapika and Leorio had already explicitly stated they would not participate. As for Melody and the others, they knew their limits and returned to their normal lives.

Greed Island was not something players of their level could touch.

On the auction stage.

The auctioneer, dressed elegantly and possessing a graceful figure, announced loudly: "Next up is the auction for the fantasy game, [Greed Island]! Please direct your attention to the center screen."

As her voice rang out, a retro gaming console impressively appeared on the large screen at the auction venue.

What surprised people was that this gaming console wasn't plugged in at all, yet the power light was blinking.

"Riku! It's the Greed Island game card!!"

Killua's eyes instantly lit up, and Gon also grew somewhat excited.

Because this Greed Island was the only clue his father had left for him.

"I believe everyone has already noticed that this gaming console does not require a power source, but operates through an incredible power. And beyond that, this gaming console is incredibly sturdy."

The female auctioneer clapped her hands, and a muscular brute holding a giant hammer walked over.

BOOM—

Right in front of everyone, he brought the heavy hammer smashing down.

Under the utterly astonished gazes of the numerous spectators, the auction podium where the gaming console was placed shattered and collapsed, yet the gaming console remained completely undamaged.

"As expected, it's protected by an aura of Nen... But to be able to form such a permanent, systemic Nen, that's truly impressive!"

Riku's eyes brightened slightly.

Generally speaking, it could be said to have abilities somewhat similar to this gaming console.

However, his Gaming Phone would disappear without his active reinforcement. It seemed it couldn't yet achieve what this game card did: running stably for years without any manipulation.

It appeared... in certain aspects, Ging had researched more thoroughly than he had.

"Did everyone see that? Even struck with an iron hammer, it remains completely unscathed. This gaming console is an ordinary model. Normally, it should have been pulverized after suffering such a heavy blow. But because it is protected by some mysterious power, it can withstand any impact. Moreover, as long as someone is playing inside..."

The female auctioneer kept them in suspense. "Next, please look at the game screen!"

As soon as she finished speaking.

Suddenly, they saw the gaming console automatically boot up, and a human face appeared on the screen.

"This... isn't this guy Jeet Shary? He's a Pro Hunter!"

"Wait, didn't they say this guy disappeared several years ago? Where did he go?"

"Can someone explain what it means that this console isn't plugged in, yet this Shary is playing it?"

...

The people in the auction venue couldn't help but discuss fervently.

Gon and Killua were also extremely curious. This was the first time they were seeing a truly operating Greed Island game card.

Riku, on the other hand, appeared very calm.

As a transmigrator, he naturally understood that the uniqueness of this game card was equivalent to opening up a second world.

Any player who entered it would truly die in reality if they died in the game.

However, the female auctioneer had already begun to explain: "He is a player of the game, currently playing. The game screen will remain in this state. The content of this game can only be seen by the players.

As for how we obtained this game, it is actually because we signed a contract with the player on the screen.

He is the Pro Hunter, Jeet Shary! He owns 7 sets of Greed Island, each valued at 5.8 billion..."

...

The auctioneer spoke at length.

She also informed everyone that people had already died in this game.

And then, the auction began!

The starting price: one billion Jenny!!

Very quickly, shouts rang out from the audience, pushing the price higher and higher, because the people attending such top-tier auctions were all top-tier billionaires.

Even...

"Hm!? Milluki!?"

Killua was stunned, because he suddenly noticed a familiar figure in the seats.

His fat second brother.

He had even raised the bid to 6 billion just to fight for a single card.

But before they could speak, an old man in the crowd directly raised his hand.

Doubling the bid!

This meant the price jumped directly to 12 billion Jenny per card!

This sudden, massive increase caused the other eager bidders present to inhale sharply.

Because according to the market price, the value of this game card was around 9 billion. Now, it was directly 3 billion over, making it quite a bad deal.

Therefore, this bid directly led to almost no counter-bids in the venue.

"12 billion going once! 12 billion going twice!"

Just as the excited female auctioneer on the stage was about to drop the hammer, a hand raised from the quiet crowd.

It was Riku.

"20 billion Jenny per card!"

He directly raised the bid.

The sudden, massive increase caused everyone else present to turn their heads, unable to suppress a sharp intake of breath.

The price of 20 billion had far exceeded the intrinsic value of the game card itself.

"Hiss... Twenty billion? This guy is crazy, actually bidding on this thing at a price far exceeding the market value."

"Does he not know who the person competing with him is? That's the billionaire Battera!"

"It's actually just a few brats? Why do their faces look so unfamiliar? Can they really bring out that much money?"

"Hehe, don't worry. Since they have the right to bid, their funds must have been verified. If they can't produce it, they'll have to leave their lives here."

...

The surrounding bidders had completely assumed the posture of onlookers.

This price was already beyond the range they were willing to bid for.

Meanwhile, the billionaire Battera, who had just raised the bid, couldn't help but frown tightly.

One game card for 20 billion meant 60 billion for three. This was already somewhat exceeding his budget.

But for the goal in his heart, he couldn't give up.

Raise the bid again!

"Twenty-two billion!"

Battera raised his paddle.

"Twenty-three billion!"

Riku immediately raised the bid.

Money was nothing more than worldly possessions to him now.

Having fleeced all the Mafia in the entire city, he currently had over 200 billion in pure cash on hand. Obtaining these three game cards was his goal.

Riku's bid instantly made Battera's face look exceptionally ugly, because continuing to increase the price would severely impact his subsequent plans.

"Tsezguerra!"

He muttered discreetly to the person beside him. Very quickly, a tall, thin man with a goatee and eyes as sharp as knives walked over briskly.

"Gentlemen, I am Pro Hunter Tsezguerra. The opponent you are competing against is Mr. Battera. I ask that you give him some face. The Battera Family will surely reward you handsomely when the time comes."

Tsezguerra stared at Riku's trio, discreetly releasing his Nen aura.

Hatsu!

The other ordinary bidders in front of him instantly turned ashen. Some weak-minded individuals even wet themselves in fear right on the spot.

Gon and Killua's expressions also shifted slightly, because they felt a very dangerous aura from the opponent.

"Riku! This guy is much stronger than ordinary Pro Hunters!"

Killua hurriedly warned.

"Heh."

Riku sneered, staring directly at Tsezguerra.

Hum~~

Suddenly.

An incredibly terrifying oppressive force descended abruptly.

Tsezguerra instantly felt as if a thousand-ton mountain was pressing down on his head. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he let out a muffled groan, the floor beneath his feet cracked, and he fell to one knee right on the spot.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. This sudden scene left the nearby bidders dumbfounded.

At this moment, Tsezguerra's expression was exceptionally awful, his pupils trembling violently.

The aloofness and arrogance in his eyes had vanished, replaced only by unprecedented shock, astonishment, awe, and even a trace of fear.

Too terrifying!

The guy before him clearly looked like just a kid, yet this terrifying oppressive force instantly made it impossible for him to even stand up straight.

This meant the opponent's Nen strength far exceeded his own.

Could it be these kids are also Pro Hunters?

Various thoughts flashed through Tsezguerra's mind. Ultimately, from between his blood-stained teeth, he forced out a few words with great difficulty.

The veins on his forehead bulged, and he propped his hands desperately on the floor to prevent himself from collapsing completely.

"My... my apologies... It's our fault..."

Tsezguerra practically squeezed out each word one by one from between his teeth.

Only after he finished saying these words did the oppressive force on his body completely disappear.

But at this moment, the look he gave Riku's group was filled with inexplicable awe and fear. He didn't even have time to greet the others around him before turning and leaving.

And these three game cards were smoothly won by Riku.

"Riku? Just now..."

Gon looked at Riku in bewilderment.

Because from his perspective, he hadn't noticed any anomalies just now.

This oppressive force hadn't acted on any other location.

Killua was deeply shocked inwardly, vaguely guessing something.

"It's nothing, just a minor interlude. We've got the three game cards, so all three of us can enter the game now. Let's go get the cards. The other auction items aren't very interesting."

Riku didn't mind, keeping his hands in his pockets.

The bidders present were just ordinary people. If there was one thing different about them, it was merely that they had more money, nothing else.

"Ah! Third brother! My Lord!!"

Suddenly.

Just as the three were about to leave, a fat, bloated body shouted from the stands and rushed over, tumbling down rather clumsily.

It was impressively Milluki.

He scrambled up clumsily, a fawning expression all over his face. "I didn't expect My Lord to be here too. I originally planned to say I'd bid on this game card for My Lord, but I didn't expect... hehe..."

Milluki rubbed his hands together.

"It's the thought that counts, Second Brother. If there's nothing else, Second Brother can leave now," Killua snorted lightly.

"Yes, yes, yes, My Lord, Third Brother, and Gon too. If you need any help, just let me know."

Milluki nodded repeatedly and left with a grin.

He had now firmly decided to latch onto his third brother, this massive golden thigh.

Because right now, his third brother was latching onto a super massive one.

Having acquired the game cards, Riku had little interest in the other auction items, so he headed straight backstage to pay the corresponding amount.

"My Lord! These are your auction items."

A beautiful waitress brought the three cards over. However, just as Riku took out his black card, preparing to pay, he was stopped.

"My Lord! Someone has already paid for you."

The waitress said respectfully.

Already paid!?

Riku was stunned. He didn't seem to have any acquaintances in this city, and these three cards came with an astronomical price tag of nearly 70 billion.

What friend could be so generous as to bring out that much money?

Gon and Killua were also extremely bewildered.

This sum of money was an absolute astronomical figure to them.

Just as they were feeling curious, a figure slowly walked out from the back.
