章節 48: Chapter 48 - The Cane and Old Man

As Axel stepped out of his hotel for a walk, his thoughts were focused on finding a good place to have dinner. He wanted to continue exploring the world and seeing all that it had to offer. But as he walked, he suddenly found himself face-to-face with an old man, who approached him without any apparent reason.

The old man was carrying a cane in his right hand, and as he started to talk, Axel realized that there was something strange about him. He felt a sense of unease, as if the old man was hiding something.

Just as he started to become suspicious, the old man's Nen suddenly flared up, and Axel realized that he was indeed a Nen user. He was taken aback and quickly asked the old man why he was talking to him and what his purpose was.

The old man simply smiled, his eyes filled with an evil gleam. With a quick movement, the cane in his hand transformed into a needle sword, and the old man's Nen increased in size.

Axel was on high alert now, his instincts telling him that this old man was dangerous. He knew he had to act fast to defend himself and get out of harm's way. He focused his mind, ready for anything the old man might throw his way.

The old man continued to smile, his eyes locked on Axel's. It was clear that he was up to something, and Axel knew that he needed to be ready for anything. The tension between the two was palpable, and it was only a matter of time before one of them made a move.

The air between Axel and the old man was thick with tension as they both stood ready for a fight. Axel focused his Nen, ready for whatever the old man threw at him.

"You're a Nen user, aren't you?" Axel asked, his eyes never leaving the old man's.

"Yes, I am," the old man replied, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "And I must say, you are quite a skilled one." "It's not often I come across someone who can sense my Nen like you have."

"What do you want from me?" Axel asked, his guard up.

"I simply want to test my skills against yours," the old man replied, his cane-sword held at the ready.

The old man lunged at Axel, his weapon aimed straight for his heart. But Axel was quick, and he sidestepped the attack, using his Nen to enhance his speed and agility.

"You're not bad," the old man said, his smile never leaving his face. "But I've been doing this a lot longer than you have."

The old man's Nen flared up, and he lunged at Axel once again. But Axel was ready, and he countered the attack with a powerful strike of his own. The two of them exchanged blows, their Nen abilities clashing in a display of raw power and skill.

"You're not half bad yourself," Axel said, panting slightly. "But I'm not going to go down that easily."

"Good," the old man replied, with a look of satisfaction on his face. "I was hoping for a bit more of a challenge."

The two of them continued to fight, their Nen abilities and weapons clashing in a display of raw power and skill. Axel was determined not to lose, and he used all of his cunning and experience to stay one step ahead of the old man.

Neither Old Man nor Axel used their nen abilities; they only used nen techniques to battle against each other.
