Chapter 77 Negotiation
Chapter 77 Negotiation
Upon seeing Nobunaga arrive, Uvogin laughed heartily and said, "It's nothing. I just accidentally lost both my legs to their Nen abilities. Once my legs are back, I'll definitely teach those people a lesson."
After hearing this, Nobunaga looked into the distance and saw Phinks fighting a woman and actually being at a disadvantage.
It's worth noting that Phinks' combat strength within the Phantom Troupe ranks among the top five.
Nobunaga was genuinely surprised; no wonder the commander had sent the three of them to provide support.
"Uvogin, wait here, I'll go get your leg back." Nobunaga's hand was already on his katana, and he seemed ready to join the battle.
Seeing this, Kakashi jumped down from the third floor in a flash, blocking Nobunaga's path.
"I can't let you pass so easily." Kakashi took out a kunai from his hand.
"Get out of the way, don't block the way." Nobunaga drew his sword and slashed directly at Kakashi's head.
Kakashi was quick to react, immediately using a kunai to block the incoming sword.
"Clang—" Sparks flew as the weapons of both sides clashed.
It seems that neither side is weak.
When Nobunaga realized that his opponent was a skilled fighter and that he probably wouldn't be able to defeat him anytime soon, he saw that the sword had failed to decapitate him.
"Boom!"
Just then, a large amount of flames erupted from a building, and black smoke billowed out of the windows that had not yet been fitted with windows.
The swordsman's disheveled figure jumped out from the fifth floor of the building, and then he saw Kakuzu following him down. Kakuzu casually threw an antenna with bat wings on the ground.
Seeing that his antenna was completely useless, the swordsman was surprised, but quickly realized something and warned, "These people may have been controlled, so my antenna is useless. You should be careful."
There is one rule in the operating system: the priority of control.
If someone has already been controlled by the operators, then the other operators cannot take control of them a second time.
This is a consensus among everyone in the operating system, but the specific principles behind it are not very clear.
Therefore, it is true that the Nen beasts summoned by Eligi are somewhat effective against players who rely on manipulation, as has already been verified with Illumi.
The situation on the field has become somewhat strange, with both sides temporarily separated.
On the Phantom Troupe's side, there appeared Nobunaga (number one), Feitan (number two), Machi (number three), Phinks (number five), Shalnark (number six), Franklin (number seven), and Uvogin (number eleven).
There were seven people in total, but the tour group only had thirteen people, so more than half of the tour group came.
Eligi's side is also quite strong, with Hinata, Kiba, Shino, Kakashi, Kakuzu, Sasuke, Gaara, and Eligi himself, making a total of eight people.
With roughly equal numbers on both sides, it's hard to say who would win if a real fight broke out.
"There are more and more dogs in the Elders' Council, it's really troublesome," Eligi complained.
"You'd better watch your mouth." Nobunaga had already assumed a fighting stance, ready to attack again at any moment.
At this moment, Machi, who was in the distance, suddenly spoke up: "Nobunaga, don't be impulsive. The commander has something to say to the other party."
As she spoke, Maggie tossed a cell phone over. Eligi caught it, a strange feeling creeping into her heart. But in the end, she picked up the phone and answered.
"You're Eliji, right? The one the elders have been hunting for over a year. I've heard a little about you." Kuroro's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I have nothing to say to the elders' lackeys," Eligi stated his position directly.
Kuroro wasn't angry when he heard this, but instead asked, "You've also taken a liking to the gangsters' collection. Is that related to your abilities?"
Eligi was surprised to hear this, but did not deny it. Instead, he told Kuroro his whole plan: "Yes, that's right. My plan is to get the collection out and then frame you, so that we'll be safe."
Kuroro, on the other end of the phone, was clearly silent for a moment, not expecting Eligi to reveal the plan so easily.
It seems he is either very confident in his abilities or an arrogant person.
In the past, Ailiji would have tried his best to hide his purpose.
But after today's brief encounter, Ailiji discovered that his team seemed to be quite powerful.
While the existence of the troupe remains a problem, there's no need to worry too much.
So now Ailiji is doing things a bit more directly.
After a moment of silence, Kuroro asked again, "How did you know we were going to make a move on the collection?"
"Whether you touch the artifacts or not doesn't matter; it'll all come back to haunt you anyway. What surprises me is that you actually came here. Do you need to complete a ritual to steal things?" Eligi replied.
"Perhaps we can cooperate," Kuroro said.
This surprised Eligi, but he felt that his style of doing things shouldn't be compatible with the Phantom Troupe, so he said directly, "I'm a member of the mafia, you've got the wrong person."
After saying that, Eliji didn't continue the conversation with Kuroro and threw the phone back.
After answering the phone, Machi exchanged a few words with Kuroro, and finally said to Eligi, "Five hundred million Jenny, get Uvogin's leg out."
"Transfer the money first!" Ailiji did not refuse.
Soon, Eligi mentioned an account, and the 500 million Jenny was directly deposited into that account, bringing Eligi's total to 800 million Jenny.
Sure enough, once one becomes powerful, the speed at which one accumulates wealth also increases significantly.
Eliji kept his promise and released the seal on the Vozkin leg.
"Ah! Kid, I'll beat you to a pulp!" Uvogin wanted to take revenge after his legs were restored, but he collapsed after only taking two steps.
He looked quite disheveled, as he hadn't recovered yet, having been completely struck by Hinata's Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms.
"Uvogin, are you alright?" Nobunaga hurriedly stepped forward to help Uvogin up, then looked at Machi.
Machi is considered the doctor in the group, and she usually takes care of things like broken arms and legs.
"I guess the tendons in my hands and feet were severed. I'll be fine after I get them stitched up when I get back," Maggie said.
Uvogin was not about to agree and immediately shouted, "Machi, sew it up for me now. I'm going to twist that kid's head off."
Machi completely ignored Uvogin and, after seeing Eligi and his group leave, said, "Let's go too. The plan might have to change."
The group's operational plans are now widely known, and some changes may need to be made.
Meanwhile, Eliji returned to his residence and immediately called Kurapika.
However, it was really hard to get through to Kurapika's phone; it took several tries to get through.
After making the call, Eligi didn't waste any time and said directly, "I ran into a member of the Phantom Troupe today. They were extremely powerful."
