Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits

"Ahhhhhhhhh..."

Biscuit, as if enduring immense pain, tensed the muscles all over her body, turning crimson. She gritted her teeth and bent her knees in a crouch.

BOOM—

She shot into the sky like a rocket, her terrifying speed even shattering the air barrier!

Bang, bang, bang—

This was the speed of a human body, the ear-piercing sound of breaking the sound barrier after exceeding the speed of sound.

But Biscuit's speed was even faster than the speed of sound. Everyone watched helplessly as she shot high into the sky, rings of shockwaves blossoming and bursting behind her.

"So... so amazing!!"

Gon's eyes widened.

Killua also felt his heart pounding wildly, every hair on his body standing on end. An incredibly dangerous feeling, as if walking on the edge of death.

As a top-tier assassin genius, his intuition told him that if the opponent's punch landed on him, he would likely be vaporized instantly, leaving not even bones behind.

Is this the terrifying strength of a Two-Star Stone Hunter?

Killua was deeply shocked.

This area happened to be in the outskirts, with no other players nearby, so even though it caused a massive commotion, it didn't attract anyone's attention.

High in the sky.

Biscuit shot up to an altitude of over a thousand meters before stopping. At this moment, the muscles all over her body had turned crimson, like a red-hot branding iron, exuding an astonishingly high temperature.

But her gaze was unprecedentedly devout. She brought her palms together as if in prayer, and then pressed one palm downwards.

Her entire body rapidly plummeted from the sky like a falling meteorite.

Biscuit's speed grew faster and faster, soon generating an ear-piercing sound as she rubbed against the air. Then, reaching supersonic speed once again, the area around her outstretched hand was enveloped in astonishing flames, resembling a descending heavenly meteorite.

Before Biscuit's attack even landed, Gon and Killua, who were within the attack range below, instantly found it incredibly difficult to breathe, their faces turning exceptionally pale.

"What terrifying pressure!! This is Shingen-ryu's strongest strike!"

Gon was incredibly shocked.

"You two step back a bit, this punch is quite dangerous," Riku reminded them.

"Riku... you..."

"Big Brother Riku..."

Both couldn't help but feel a bit worried, but upon seeing Riku's resolute gaze, they sensibly and quickly retreated.

"Truly impressive. I didn't expect to encounter such a powerful opponent in this game world. You should be second only to Netero among the opponents I've faced."

Riku couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

Because in the memories of his past life, Biscuit didn't display very obvious combat power. Even when she followed the team to participate in the dodgeball game at the final stage, her performance was very subdued.

But now, he finally got to witness this Muscle Barbie's true strength with his own eyes.

Biscuit's strength absolutely belonged to the tier just below Netero!

Perhaps slightly weaker than Ging, but looking at the entire world, she was absolutely among the top-tier experts.

"Be careful!! Here I come—"

Biscuit shouted loudly from the sky, seemingly reminding Riku to pay attention to the power of her palm strike.

Riku took a deep breath, his chest swelling similarly, his muscles bulging slightly.

Scarlet Eyes! Open—

Lightning Nen! Open—

Enhancement Type Double Red! Open!

Divine Strength - Red!

...

Almost... that's enough!

Riku stood under the terrifying fist pressure, looking up at Biscuit plummeting like a meteorite from the sky.

The opponent hadn't arrived yet, but the terrifying pressure had already descended.

Centered on Riku, the ground within a 100-meter radius began to crack under the unbearable pressure. Trees rapidly snapped, and hard rocks splintered and shattered!

"As expected of an excellent strike. How about using it like this!"

Super Copy - Gold!

Shingen-ryu: Heaven's Meteor!

Standing on the ground, Riku used the exact same move. But unlike Biscuit, he didn't shoot up into the sky.

Instead, he struck purely from bottom to top.

In a situation of absolute disadvantage, he forcefully surged against the current, exactly like a massive waterfall pouring upwards into the heavens!

Riku's fist was similarly wrapped in a layer of scorching shockwaves.

The ground beneath his feet crumbled rapidly, exactly like a cracker.

One large and one small, two terrifying fist pressures clashed head-on.

Rumble, rumble, rumble—

Amidst the deafening explosion, it sounded as if countless primeval beasts were roaring.

It was also as if a storm had swept past. The surrounding trees and rocks were sent flying, and Gon and Killua in the distance exclaimed as they were almost blown away.

Rumble, rumble, rumble—

The terrifying explosion seemed to last for nearly a minute before gradually subsiding.

Smoke and dust filled the air; the entire world seemed to have been shattered.

The surrounding temperature had clearly risen significantly, giving the illusion of standing by a freshly erupted volcano crater.

"Riku!!"

"Big Brother Riku!!"

Seeing this scene, the two little guys were instantly burning with anxiety, unable to stop themselves from calling out loudly.

A gust of wind blew away the smoke and dust, and the two finally got a clear view of the scene before them.

When they truly saw it, both of their expressions became exceptionally colorful.

The previously bare plain had vanished, replaced by a massive, scorched crater over 300 meters in diameter.

It felt exactly like standing by a real volcano crater; there were even chunks of scorching, magma-like rock within the black pit.

And right in the center of this black pit stood a figure.

Riku's upper garment was completely shredded, revealing solid muscles. His fist was currently dripping with blood, and his right hand looked as if it had been scorched. He also appeared somewhat miserable.

And in front of him, the other figure looked even more bizarre.

Biscuit!

This Muscle Barbie, over two meters tall and covered in muscles, currently had her right hand completely fractured. Bone-white bone could even be seen piercing through the muscle.

Her expression was also incredibly colorful, exactly as if she had seen something unimaginable, completely frozen in place.

Because Riku had actually countered with the exact same move she used. Furthermore, Riku hadn't shot up into the sky at all; without the charging process, he forcefully caught her attack and even counterattacked.

In a clash of pure power, Riku had completely suppressed her. This directly made Biscuit doubt herself.

She even forgot the pain of her broken arm.

It took a full dozen seconds for Biscuit to recover from her shock, gasping sharply, her entire body trembling.

Clearly, after using this move, her muscles were in a state of exhaustion.

But looking at Riku, he still stood in place, seemingly completely unscathed. Aside from the burns on his right arm, no other injuries could be seen.

"I... lost..."

Biscuit sighed as if deflated, sitting weakly on the ground, her head drooping.

She found it somewhat unbelievable.

If she had merely been defeated, she absolutely wouldn't be this devastated. The problem was that the opponent used the exact same move as her, a move that even her disciple hadn't learned.

It could be said it was entirely her own original creation.

This meant the opponent had copied her move in such a short amount of time, and then defeated her with her own move. This was simply the greatest humiliation of her life.

Moreover...

Biscuit looked up at Riku, her gaze becoming incredibly stunned.

Because she was shocked to discover that Riku's injured right hand was actually healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, including the scorched skin and scraped knuckles.

In just a few brief breaths, the injuries on Riku's body had completely healed.

Is...

Is he human?

Is this guy fighting me really human? How could he possess such terrifying regenerative abilities?

Or does this guy's Nen ability actually include a self-healing effect like this?

But how exactly did this kid develop his abilities? To actually reach such a terrifying level.

"Your hand seems to be injured quite severely."

Riku walked over slowly.

And placed his hand directly on Muscle Barbie Biscuit's injured arm.

In the Scarlet Eyes state, all of Riku's Nen categories were directly maxed out.

Naturally, this included self-healing abilities.

Possessing numerous traits, Riku naturally had the ability to heal others.

A pale green light surfaced on Biscuit's arm. Then, under her utterly shocked gaze, the fractured arm was gently held by Riku. Next, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the bone rapidly regenerated and reconnected!

Then the injured muscles... were actually repaired one by one.

The entire process was simply like a dream; it was too unbelievable.

"This... what an astonishing healing ability... But what truly surprised me was your power... Are you really just an ordinary player?"

Biscuit couldn't help but sigh, looking at her fully recovered arm.

At this moment, she had absolutely no further thought of provoking Riku, because she clearly understood that the opponent's strength far, far exceeded her own.

Or rather, the fundamental reason she managed to avoid severe injury in this battle...

Wasn't because they were evenly matched, but because Riku held back.

The opponent could truly unleash and retract power at will, whereas she couldn't perfectly control this move.

This meant the opponent's power was already far above this move.

As a top-tier powerhouse, Biscuit naturally understood this logic. At this moment, she was thoroughly convinced.

"You don't need to be too sad. Even Netero was almost knocked flat by one of my punches back then. Your power is second only to Netero among all the opponents I've faced so far. You should feel proud."

Riku smiled and comforted her.

"Hiss!?"

Hearing this, Biscuit's eyes instantly widened. She felt as if she had just heard news that shattered her worldview.

Listen to this, is this human language? Is what this guy saying human language?

He actually knocked Netero flat?

If these words came from anyone else's mouth, Biscuit absolutely wouldn't believe it, but they came from Riku's mouth.

And the opponent had truly and genuinely defeated her.

This gave Biscuit a completely new understanding of Riku.

"Netero... you're saying... you know Netero? And even fought him?" Biscuit couldn't help but ask.

"Of course. We fought in the Association headquarters back then. The old man is still very optimistic. Besides, my Two-Star Hunter License was granted as an exception by the old man. So, in that sense, I'm also a Two-Star Hunter."

Riku smiled.

Alright!

I admit it, you are a monster!

Biscuit was now thoroughly convinced. She hadn't expected the person standing before her to also be a Two-Star Hunter.

Absolutely the youngest Two-Star Hunter in the entire history of the Hunter Association. This guy was actually granted it directly through Netero pulling strings. One must know that since becoming Chairman of the Association, Netero had been conscientious and dedicated for so many years without a single blemish.

Yet for this little guy before her, he actually made an exception and granted a Two-Star Hunter License.

One could imagine how highly Netero valued Riku.

Thinking about it this way, losing to him didn't seem so embarrassing after all.

After all, even that guy Netero, hailed as the world's strongest, had been knocked flat by Riku.

Thinking of this, Biscuit seemed to feel less miserable.

[Ding! You have defeated Biscuit in a combat stance. 10% chance to automatically copy opponent's trait in progress...]

[Ding! Congratulations on acquiring [Magical Esthetician] - Double Gold, [Shingen-ryu Martial Arts Grandmaster] - Gold.]

...

Voices resembling the sounds of nature rang out in Riku's mind.

A massive amount of information also flooded his limbs and bones.

[Ding! You used Continuous Lucky Star on Biscuit. Automatically copying opponent's traits in progress...]

[Ding! Congratulations on acquiring [Transmutation Type Nen Talent] - Double Gold, [Muscle Barbie] - Double Gold.]

[Ding! You possess [Magical Esthetician] - Double Gold + [Muscle Barbie] - Double Gold. You have achieved mastery, automatically merging them, obtaining a completely new trait: [Super Saiyan Transformation] - Double Gold.]

...

Upon hearing this system prompt, Riku even thought he had misheard.

Even as calm as he was, he couldn't help his pupils from violently trembling.

Until this trait appeared in his information panel.

System Trait: [Super Saiyan Transformation] - Double Gold Effect: This ability is a special trait formed by the fusion of Muscle Barbie muscle enhancement and Magical Esthetician. The possessor of this trait can undergo a transformation like a Super Saiyan. After completely transforming, one's muscles will experience an enhancement effect, hair will turn golden, and combat power will explosively increase by five times!

Upon seeing this information, Riku was even more dumbfounded.

This was simply too exaggerated.

He never dreamed this Muscle Barbie would give him such a massive surprise.

The opponent's Muscle Barbie transformation actually merged with her Nen Esthetician trait, and under his system's modification, became a Super Saiyan Transformation.

Although it wasn't a transformation possessing the Super Saiyan bloodline, it could directly increase combat power by five times.

One must know this was only a Double Gold-tier trait. If this trait were forcefully upgraded to Red or even Black, the combat power increase... was simply unimaginable.

Perfect!

Perfect!!!

"I lost... Can I still join your team?"

Muscle Barbie Biscuit had already reverted to her loli state. God knows where she pulled out a dress and changed into it. Looking at her now, she appeared to be a harmless little girl, completely unrecognizable from the fierce Muscle Barbie woman just moments ago.
