Chapter 144: Transaction

After finishing the call, Chrollo called Pakunoda.

“What’s the matter?” Pakunoda entered the room and saw Chrollo frowning.

“Machi was caught,” Chrollo said solemnly.

Pakunoda was surprised: “What?”

“A few days ago, I asked Machi to go to The Heavens Arena to inform Hisoka about the plan in York City on August 30th, I don’t know why Allan was there. They were at odds….”

“And then, what does that fellow wants?”

Pakunoda met Allan in the Hunter Exam before, and she fought with him and was very impressed by his power.

“Allan wants me to send one Billion Jenny to redeem Machi, or he will kill her.”

Hearing Chrollo’s words, Pakunoda said coldly: “He is using this opportunity to blackmail us, Chief. What are you going to do? Are you going to pay him?”

Chrollo didn’t answer directly but asked: “Have they contacted Uvogin?”

“Well, he is with Nobunaga. I have notified them about the gathering.”

Chrollo nodded and stood up: “Get ready, we’ll set off now.”

“Where to? Yorknew City, or Heavens Arena?”

“Heavens Arena.” Chrollo closed the book in his hand.

“Would you like me to inform Uvogin?” Pakunoda said.

“No need.” Chrollo shook his head and said: “Uvogin had a conflict with Allan during the Hunter Exam, he chopped one of his hands, and if they were to meet, Uvogin would definitively fight, which isn’t something I want to see.”

“Chief, are you afraid of him?”

Chrollo didn’t answer.

“Chief, it’s undeniable that this guy is strong, but if we go alone, we still have you here, and you are more than his opponent. And in the end, he is only one person.

If we join hands, we can definitively kill him.”

Chrollo shook his head and said: “Not necessarily.”

“Why?”

Chrollo paused for a bit then said: “Remember what we said when the Ryodan was founded. We are spiders with a mind that is responsible for issuing orders and twelve feet to execute them.

No matter whether it’s the head or the feet, they can be changed. However, once the head and feet are severely injured at the same time, the spider is finished.”

Hearing this, Pakunoda frowned and said: “Chief, do you mean that even if we can kill Allan, we will pay a heavy price? And this price is something that we can’t afford, really?”

Chrollo shook his head: “It’s not that we can’t bear to kill him, but the price is higher than not killing him. It’s not worth it.”

“I understand.”

Pakunoda stopped asking and said: “I will go prepare one Billion Jenny.”

On the other side of the call, inside The Heavens Arena.

“I’ve already told Chrollo about Machi’s situation.” After hanging up, Hisoka turned around and said to Allan.

Allan nodded and carried Machi on his shoulder after knocking her out and said: “If Chrollo or someone else comes, you lead him to my room directly. Remember, tell them to bring the money, or else they will collect her body.”

Seeing Allan’s cold expression, Hisoka narrowed his eyes and smiled: “You really don’t have any pity for Machi. She is one of the few women that I appreciate. Wouldn’t it be a pity to just kill her?”

Allan stopped and looked at him: “A guy like you actually appreciate a woman? And a fierce woman like her?”

“I’m a man after all, and seeing a beautiful woman is fascinating,” Hisoka said with a smile.

“That’s also true.” Allan glanced at Hancock next to him then returned to the room with Machi on his back.

“What are you going to do to her?” Hancock asked after they were in their room.

“What can I do? If they bring the money, I will keep my promise and let her go.”

While talking, Allan threw Machi on the sofa and tied her up firmly.

Of course, Allan didn’t expect a normal rope to prevent her from escaping.

The reason he did this was to remind her that her current situation wasn’t good and to not act rashly.

“So, who is this woman? Why does she want to kill you? What kind of force is behind her?”

Hancock asked a few questions at one go.

Allan made a cup of tea and explained everything to her.

After learning that Machi was a member of the Genie Ryodan, who were fierce and ruthless, she released some killing Intent.

“It’s better to kill her directly. Even if you let her go this time, she won’t be grateful and will only hate you more and more and try to kill you again. Keeping her alive is like a curse.”

Allan was a little surprised by Hancock and laughed.

“What are you laughing at?” Hancock was puzzled.

“Are you worried about me?” Allan looked at her.

“No.” Hancock blushed a little and turned her head away.

Allan was very happy seeing this and smile: “Hancock, do you remember? When I first summoned you into this world, you hate me so much and wanted to kill me.”

“I said that before. I didn’t know what kind of person you are at that time.”

“What about now?”

“Stop asking; I don’t want to answer you.”

Allan shrugged and didn’t ask anymore.

After two hours, Machi woke up and panicked when she found herself bound tightly.

After calming down, she remembered what happened before.

“You’re awake.”

She turned around and saw Allan sitting, looking at her.

“Let me go, bastard!”

“Your Chief isn’t here with the money yet. How can I let you go.”

Machi snorted coldly, and her muscle tensed, and the ropes were cut.

After gaining her freedom, Machi rushed toward the door.

In the blink of an eye, Ice surged in the room and froze Machi completely.

Allan looked at her and said: “Really? I didn’t want to use this method to teat you. Why bother running away?”

He ignored Machi and looked at the time. It had been six hours since Hisoka talked to Chrollo.

If Chrollo was close, then it was enough for him to arrive at The Heavens Arena.

After two more hours, Hisoka called him and learned that Chrollo had come in person with a Billion Jenny.

Soon after, there was a knock on the door.

Allan opened and saw Hisoka standing in front of the door, and behind him were Chrollo and Pakunoda.

“Come in.”

Allan wasn’t worried about them attacking him at all and let them inside.

Chrollo looked at Allan calmly and said: “It has been a long time.”

“it’s just a few months.” Allan shrugged.

“You seem to have changed a lot.”

“What do you mean?”

“You become vicious.”

“Well, yes. You haven’t changed much, the same for Miss Pakunoda.”

“Stop talking nonsense. Where is Machi?” Pakunoda was angry.

“Pay the money, and I will deliver her to you.” Allan smiled lightly.

Hearing this, Pakunoda handed a golden card and said: “The money is inside. The code is six zeros.”

Allan nodded and put the card away, then carried Machi out.

“Why is her body so cold? What did you do to her?”

Seeing Machi’s eyes closed and her body cold made Pakunoda think that she died.

“Don’t be nervous. She isn’t dead,” Allan said indifferently. “She was silly, so I punished her a little.”

Pakunoda put her hand on Machi’s chest and tentatively found her heartbeats which made her relieved.

“Okay, I returned your people back. You can leave.” Allan directly chased them out without giving them any face.

Chrollo said solemnly: “Let’s go.”

Pakunoda glared at Allan and picked Machi before following Chrollo out.

Hisoka was the last to leave as he had something to say to Allan.

“Tell Gon that I have to leave before August 30th. If he can’t win ten times before that, then I won’t be able to fight with him.”

“Don’t worry. He will definitively fight you before you go.” Allan said confidently.

After Allan left, Allan checked the system and found that his reward arrived.

[Ding! You successfully blackmailed the Ryodan using Machi. Reward: Nen Ability: Holy Prayer of Light.]

[Ability Description: The Holy Prayer of Light can speed natural recovery and relieve fatigue and restore the spirit. Using this Ability will consume too much Nen and can only be used once a day. If the limit is exceeded, then you will be forced into a Zetsu state for 30 days.]

Allan was satisfied with the healing power of this new Ability as it can save his life or anyone close to him.

Although it can only be used once a day, this Ability gave him an advantage in critical times.

With his current strength, he doesn’t dare to set off to the dark continent, but as long as he stayed here, only a few people would be able to hurt him. Only the old monsters were dangerous for him right now.

Therefore, the greatest use of this Ability was not healing himself but relieving fatigue.

After all, he was still human and would feel tired.

Thinking about this, Allan tried activating this New Ability, and a golden light directly emerged. A being with a scepter and wings on his back stood in front of Allan.

“Angel?” Allan’s eyes widened.

“I Greet Master.”

Allan was taken aback; he didn’t expect this angel to be self-aware and even talk to him.

“Do you have a name?”

“Master, please give me a name?”

Allan thought for a bit and said: “Well, since you have the ability to heal, then I will call you Raphael!”

“Thank you for giving me a name.” Raphael smiled.

“Raphael, help me relieve my fatigue,” Allan ordered immediately.

“I will do so now, Master.”

As he said this, Raphael raised his hand, and a golden brilliance fell on Allan, making him feel refreshed, and all the fatigue in his body disappeared.

“What a powerful ability.” Allan couldn’t help the smile on his face.

“Good job, Raphael.” Allan gave him a thumb up and praised him without hesitation.

“Thank you, Master! You have used Raphael’s Ability for today. See you next time, Master!”

With that, Raphael Disappeared.
