Chapter 120: The Zoldyck In The Room
.......
The young Gon just didn't care, the darkness building up within his eyes couldn't allow such a thing to faze him.
On the other hand, the young Zoldcyk named Yasuo had an expressionless face, as expressionless as he was the first he came to the Island... He just didn't consider them a threat.
The dark-haired Zoldyck with nothing but tranquility on his face looked at Gon ignoring the two Chimera Ants, he asked, "What are you here for?"
Gon's eyes moved slightly looking at the man standing between himself and his target and said pointing in Pitou's direction, "I'm here for her..." His eyes only turned darker saying that.
Ignoring them only managed to push their killing intent to a higher level though before they can say anything, he answered their question, "About your King, I left him with my friend, they'll likely fight but I left them just now so I guess the fight has just started."
Only now did Pitou regained some of her sense except she didn't fully trust his answer as even though her instincts are telling her he isn't lying, for the first time since her birth, she chose not to trust them.
Pitou looked at Pouf knowing well what he specializes in and even though she noticed his killing intent no disappearing.
She still waited for his assessment as the moment he tells her anything is wrong, she will disobey the King's last order and leave the girl to her death, after all, the King's safety is always first.
"We have to kill him!" That is all Pouf had to say making her tense again because she noticed with her unrivaled senses something.
Pouf who she considers as the one who gets easily affected by the King's actions didn't seem as affected as she thought making her think deeply about what he said and what he really means.
And it hit her almost instantly... As she comprehended how the man came within the room... The trick he used.
Pouf must've thought all of that through and came with several methods the ability could be used and ways that make it extremely dangerous.
And as she thought about it too, she realized something. The two humans and the King were away for more than 15 minutes which means they are a distance of 15 minutes away.
That also means he was able to appear from that distance to here instantly so she can see a bit of the danger of such ability but couldn't disobey the King's orders unless his safety is in the line.
But Pouf was able to see much more in the ability... A teleportation ability allowing one to create portals, if used well, it could be one of the most dangerous abilities that ever existed.
A danger to the King, something he couldn't allow until he heard the following, "Pouf!!! Our King's safety comes first!" Pitou's deafening voice woke him up from his overthinking state.
Even with how dangerous the human could be, the King's safety still comes first, how can he call himself a royal guard when he isn't there in the King's time of need?
'Right! I'm the King's most royal guard and I figured out that the human isn't lying and that the King is safe but who's to say my king will be safe further down the line... No matter how dangerous the human is, I shouldn't have let that cloud my judgment.'
Then instantly without caring about what Pitou wants to do, he activated one of his most prized abilities, 'Beelzebub' an ability that can be utilized to create thousands of small clones in order to escape confinement or spy on large areas undetected, or to form copies indistinguishable from the original in order to fight.
However, said body-size clones are much weaker than the original, as is the hypnotic effect of their scales. All segments are also far less durable than the original: the small ones can be destroyed with weak physical attacks.
Since Shaiapouf has control over every single cell in his body, he can easily recreate his clones if they are broken with sheer force.
However, if the cells themselves are damaged, for example by being burned, he is powerless to restore them, resulting in damage to his body when the ability is disengaged.
And what he did is turn into countless small clones that flew away through the holes on the roof and the door and anyway they found leading outside with no one reacting to the astonishing ability or... none of them made any effort to do so allowing him to leave...
Pitou only let out a sigh of relief seeing that knowing someone can be by the King's side as the consequences is something acceptable to her.
Even at the cost of her life so she turned her head looking at Gon, the weak human dangerous enough to make her sense of danger ring but she resolutely looked at him.
"If you want to kill me after that then you can but please wait until I finish healing her."
That request was not only directed towards Gon, it was also directed towards Yasuo... Because this time, she's actually scared of getting killed.
Fear she didn't have before because she considers Gon to be weak that even in her Zetsu state, he still won't be able to do anything but the same couldn't be said for the other human.
The tall harmless human who's looking at her with his strange emotionless eyes and she have no idea of what he could be thinking but she knows from the earlier interaction that this man is anything but harmless.
Gon didn't seem to react throughout the incident, everything happening around him seem foreign to him except the Chimera Ant in front of him but that doesn't mean what's happening didn't affect him as Pitou noticed something.
She noticed his eyes becoming darker and darker the more time passes... The more she does that he doesn't like, the more her sense of danger rang.
Gon lifted his hand pointing at her and with an emotionless tone he remarked, "I'll be taking 20 minutes off... So you have 20 minutes left."
But Pitou didn't get time to react to what he said as she noticed the tall dark-haired human walking towards her making her put her guard up as much as she can in her Zetsu state.
"How about we make a deal?" The words that came out of the Zoldyck's mouth surprised her for a second only for her animal instinct to ring warning her of the human before her... warning her of the unknown so she remained silent just vigilantly watching his every action.
A smile surfaced on the man's face, the first smile of the day. He stopped walking once he was near enough then crouched down to her level with a serene expression on his face, "I'm sure you'll like the deal... How about I heal her... And I can do so instantly..."
The tranquility surrounding him didn't manage to make her let her guard down one bit, her loyalty to the King acting as a guide couldn't allow such a thing to happen as that could possibly lead to failing the order given to her but when she heard what he had to say, her eye couldn't help but lit up.
Yet cautiousness remained apparent in her eye and while with their proximity to each other, the idea of killing him before he can react definitely appeared within her mind... She just couldn't act on it because while she can kill most Nen users with her physical strength alone without the need for using Nen... She knew looking at him that such a thing isn't possible.
She isn't sure why she got that feeling except for the possibility that he is strong enough to make such attacks useless but she knows the alternative... Losing which will mean failing the King's orders if the man killed Komugi and she can't risk such a thing happening.
Yasuo took her silence as a sign for him to go on and that's exactly what he did, "I will heal her now and instantly, and as I'm sure you realized, it's an ability of mine... In return however..."
That is what she was waiting for, whether he is saying the truth or not, she will only decide once he states what he wants as her getting healing instantly is something she's really wishing for, after all, her King might need her so the sooner she joined his side the better.
Gon again didn't react as he just watched and listened to Killua's brother as the latter continued.
"You'll owe me one and you'll do whatever I want for that favor unless it's harmful to your King and the royal guards.
Just so you know, I have an ability that forces people to deliver the favors I ask so know that refusing later is useless, it's an ability of mine... And you'll leave the girl with this boy's friend until you do what he wants."
Pitou's eyes widened hearing the simple request that once thought about becomes quite complicated.
So instead, he explained it to her in his simple terms with his emotionless tone as he looked at her with his strange eyes as if looking into her soul.
"You have to agree as that wasn't a deal you're allowed to refuse."
