Suddenly, Ron realized something.

The Mad Beast were powerful.

But the Phantom Troupe is still in its growth phase. It will only formally clash with the Elders once the Phantom Troupe has grown stronger. By then, the Mad Beast will no longer be around.

“Even without me, members of the KUTE would still appear in Meteor City.”

“But without my interference, Ging Freecss might even take longer to arrive.”

“Then, the Mad Beast will be completely wiped out under the KUTE’s attack.”

“It’s not just that.”

“The KUTE may even intentionally target the Elders of Meteor City and kill them.”

“After the Phantom Troupe grows stronger, Meteor City will face a severely damaged version of itself due to the KUTE’s assault.”

“With the Mad Beast gone, even the Elders will have been replaced.”

“Most of the top-tier Nen users will be dead at the hands of the KUTE.”

“By that time, the Elders of Meteor City will naturally be powerless against the Phantom Troupe.”

“It’s highly likely that this is how it will play out.”

“In the original story, when Ging Freecss is credited for defeating the KUTE, there is no mention of Meteor City.”

“At that point, the KUTE may have already left the area of Meteor City.”

“The KUTE’s assault on Meteor City will create a strong opportunity for the Phantom Troupe.”

Ron pondered for a moment.

“Based on Grandpa Zeno’s performance in the original storyline, as well as his actions this time, and what he told me…”

“Chrollo Lucilfer of the Phantom Troupe might be on the same level as the members of the KUTE.”

“He’s probably on the same level as the man in the suit from the Mad Beast group.”

“The exact strength is hard to determine, but it won’t differ by much.”

“An A-level Nen user.”

“As for the other members of the Phantom Troupe, compared to Chrollo, they are somewhat weaker.”

Ron looked out the window.

“Because of my appearance, the situation of the KUTE has changed. The Elders of Meteor City haven’t suffered as severely, and some members of the Mad Beast are still alive.”

“The situation in Meteor City is no longer the same.”

“Will the Phantom Troupe still grow to the level it reached in the original story?”

Ron was a bit curious about that.

As a traveller from another world, just like a butterfly lightly flapping its wings, Ron could change many things. He was excited to see what kind of changes he might bring to the characters of the original storyline.

Not long after, Ron’s phone rang.

He took out his phone and answered the call.

“Grandpa Zeno.”

“Things are already over. I’ll pick you up in a bit. Are you still at the same hotel?”

“Still here.”

“Alright.”

Zeno hung up the phone.

A few hours later, a car stopped outside the hotel.

Zeno sat in the back seat.

The driver was no longer Park, but another person.

Ron opened the car door and got in.

The driver, after receiving instructions from Zeno, pressed the accelerator.

Silva wasn’t there; he had already left, probably returning to the Zoldyck Estate.

Or perhaps he had gone off on another assassination mission.

The issue with the KUTE was settled, and Zeno was all that was needed here.

“Grandpa Zeno, how is everything?”

“You should already know about the situation ahead of you, right?”

“Yeah, I found out through my Nen Beast.”

“Old K died at the hands of me and your Uncle Silva’s joint attack. Old T and Old U didn’t die. They were taken back by a member of the Hunter Association.”

“What about those two disasters?”

“One belongs to us, the Zoldycks and the other belongs to the Hunter Association.”

This time, Zeno didn’t give Ron the Nen tools.

Ron already had one in his possession.

There were more members of the Zoldyck family than just Ron.

Zeno had intended to give the material to Killua, considering his special situation as the heir of the younger generation in the Zoldyck family. This material would be a good fit for him.

However, just like Ron, Killua would also need to pay a price for receiving this Nen weapon material. It wasn’t going to be handed over for free.

“There’s another piece of Nen weapon material,” Zeno continued. “One that a member of the KUTE had obtained previously.

It was lost, and no one knows where it ended up in Meteor City.”

“We probably won’t get a chance to obtain it.”

“I’ll take you to the battlefield later.”

Before coming to Meteor City, Ron had told Zeno that he wanted to observe Meteor City closely to gather inspiration for creating **Nen Beasts**.

So, naturally, this battlefield was an unmissable place.

There are very few places in the entire Human Continent where top-tier Nen users have fought like this.

“Alright.”

After entering Meteor City, Ron noticed that the progress of the crystal ball was slowly increasing again.

The surrounding characteristics were being absorbed into the crystal ball.

The speed was much faster this time.

Especially in the aftermath of the KUTE’s defeat.

“Grandpa Zeno, what will happen to the KUTE members that the Hunter Association captured?”

“Usually, they are thrown into a death row prison.”

Zeno explained, “But they won’t be executed. Nen users of that level are extremely rare and valuable. There’s potential to use them.”

“The Hunter Association will imprison them and wait until they are needed, then release them.”

This statement made Ron think of Razor from Greed Island.

Razor was an S-rank criminal.

After being captured by Ging Freecss, he was sentenced to death.

But he wasn’t executed.

Instead, Ging Freecss vouched for him, and Razor even joined Ging’s team.

One of the creators of Greed Island was Razor.

Death row prisoners have many uses.

For example, in the Hunter Exam, death row prisoners could be used as obstacles to test the candidates.

Even if it’s dangerous, even if a candidate dies, it doesn’t matter.

After all, those who participate in the Hunter Exam are prepared for death.

Another example is when entering dangerous areas for exploration.

A death row prisoner could be sent ahead.

And so on.

—

The progress of the crystal ball increased significantly.

The two of them continued walking through Meteor City, the driver trailing behind them at a distance.

When it was time to drive, the driver would come forward with the car.

From the garbage district, they moved toward the chaotic zone.

Then, a city came into view.

This was the Elder’s City.

Ron gazed at the city before him, not expecting it to be this prosperous.

However, after thinking it over, he felt it made sense.

After all, there were only twelve such cities in all of Meteor City.

The area of Meteor City itself was larger than that of many countries.

It was as if the resources of an entire country were concentrated into these twelve cities.

The guards at the entrance became alert as soon as they saw the car.

The driver stopped at the entrance and declared their identity.

But the guards still looked Ron and Zeno over several times.

This made the driver a bit worried.

Not because he was concerned for Zeno and Ron, but because he feared the guards might anger Zeno and Ron and end up killed.

He knew very well who they were.

They were from the Zoldyck family.

Even members of the Kute gang of thieves, who handled the Mad beasts group easily, were killed by the Zoldyck family

If Ron knew what the driver was thinking, he would likely tell him to relax. Was the driver worried that the Zoldyck family would kill people? Was that something you could get for free? (T/N Zeno isn’t still wearing the “1 kill per day” clothing right?

Even if the other party was somewhat offensive or impolite, Zoldyck family members generally wouldn’t act.

Just like how many people come to challenge the Zoldyck Manor every year.

If those people sneaked in through the back gate and were killed, that was their own problem.

If they didn’t sneak in and only provoked them at the front gate, the Zoldyck family wouldn’t care at all.

They could come and go freely.

To put it simply, they didn’t take those people seriously.
