Palm is Knov's apprentice.
Although her teacher always says she's a hindrance, Palm makes no attempt to hide her affection for Knov. As she expresses her feelings, she keeps adding spoonfuls of sugar to her coffee, so much so that it's nearly overflowing by the time she downs it in one gulp.
This bold behavior made Gon and Killua stunned.
"So... Do you want us to fight the other group holding the wooden tile?"
After the other party's emotions gradually stabilized, Gon spoke in a low voice.
"Ah, sorry, actually..."
Palm raised her finger tremblingly: "That's what the Chairman and teacher told me."
"They said they can't have any burden..."
At this point, Palm's eyes became dark again: "But I won't give up."
"I must go with you!!"
"It's obvious that their team has accepted that unknown person called Lan, but they refused to take me with them."
"I don't accept it! So, if I showed them my passion and sincerity, and they finally agreed, with some conditions, hehehe."
Well, the sincerity and enthusiasm she showed should be a shock to Netero and the others.
"Although the teacher looks cold, he is actually very gentle. However, if you have not been with him for a long time, you will not understand it."
"Ah, please don't get me wrong, I am not dating my teacher, although I am looking forward to such a..."
"Okay!!"
Killua couldn't help but slam the table and interrupted: "What is the condition!!"
"... It means that Knuckle and Shoot must be defeated!"
When these two names were mentioned, Palm's face was full of obvious disgust.
"Those two people are barbaric and vulgar, two brats brats who don't even know how to speak."
"How dare they get to go instead of me? I'll exterminate anyone who gets in my way, no matter who they are.
"I will never allow them to go to NGL before me, absolutely not!!"
Holding the coffee cup in her hand, she trembled and burst out with a creepy aura, and the coffee inside kept overflowing.
"... Stop using Hatsu now!!"
Gon hurriedly took out the rag. This performance is the same as his Enhancer type.
Female enhancer-type Nen users are really rare.
Knuckle and Shoot, these two are Morel's apprentices, and they are also given conditions by Netero.
The two groups must defeat the other side within a month, and the winner will get a chance to enter NGL.
While Palm was telling Gon and Killua everything.
On the other hand, Knuckle and Shoot also started their own actions.
In this month, the two sides must separate to decide the outcome.
At the same time, in the NGL, near the nest of the Chimera Ant.
In this forest, there is no signal at all, and communication equipment cannot work at all, but a call was carried out without any interference.
"So, you are going to come here in person, right?"
Lan sat on the stump while listening to the decision of the other party on the other end of the phone and laughed: "This is really rare."
"It's really rare for you to come here in person."
"After all, they are special species from a special area. I am very interested in their structure and the way they come."
A muffled voice came from the other end of the phone.
According to this tone of speaking, Lan estimated that Ging, on the other end of the phone, might be picking his nose with his hand while talking on the phone.
"You have already got some information about Chimera Ants, right?"
Lan never doubted Ging's information channels. In this world, very few things can be hidden from him.
And the information about Chimera Ants is definitely not among them.
"If the information I got is correct, the appearance of this group of Chimera Ants should have a certain connection with the son of Chairman Netero in the rumors."
Although he said 'should,' Ging's words were very calm: "He joined forces with the Kakin Empire and promoted the occurrence of this incident together."
"And the birth and fermentation of this series of events also let me see some familiar methods."
"Some guys are still hiding in the dark, doing shameful things."
Well, in addition to the Kakin Empire and Beyond Netero, V5 also played a notable role in this.
Even from what Ging learned, someone in the Hunter Association also interfered in this.
According to his estimation, it should be the vice chairman, Pariston Hill, who is so annoying.
But there is no need to tell Lan about the dirty things in the Hunter Association.
After all, Ging himself still holds the position of the Zodiac Twelve in the Hunter Association.
But for Beyond Netero and Kakin Empire, as well as the hidden V5, Ging is unscrupulous and fires at full power.
Even if Beyond Netero is the son of Chairman Netero, he doesn't care.
"I heard that Chairman Netero's son also went to the Dark Continent and successfully returned, right?"
Lan is trying to find more information.
"It can't be said to be successful. He did come back, but..."
Ging scratched his hair on the other end of the phone.
He's not surprised that Molek knows about the Dark Continent and Beyond Netero; Lan's been an enigma since their first contact.
This guy seems to have an uncanny knack for understanding things most hunters can't even begin to grasp.
So, secrets that aren't really secrets to most hunters likely hold no mystery for Lan.
"Like other guys who failed to return to the Dark Continent, they brought back some kind of threats."
"But the difference is that other guys who brought back threats are basically all dead, or worse than dead."
"Only this guy is still alive and kicking, jumping up and down to plan various actions."
