I stood next to Killua and Gon, as Wing stood infront of us with Zushi to the side. "Gon-kun, Killua-kun, from today, you'll be training with Zushi. Gon-kun, I'm pleased that you've kept your word." Wing stated, smiling. "Your promise thread helped me remember my promise, so it's all thanks to it! A few times, I almost gave in. But when I looked at it, I was able to control myself." Gon said, examining the thread. "That's because I added a bit of Nen to help you." Wing stated. "Huh? Really?" Asked Gon as I internally chuckled. "No, I was lying." Wing said, smiling. "Huh?" Questioned Gon. "But how'd you know that Gon kept his promise? He could've practiced in secret." Killua asked as Gon angrily pouted.

"Sakura-chan, may you explain?" Asked Wing. 'Hey. You're their sensei. Not me...' I thought to myself, pouting. "It's cause' the thread stayed intact and didn't snap. If Gon would've used Ten, the thread would've snapped. Thus, resulting in Gon breaking his promise." I stated. "Exactly. So, Gon, may you try using Ten please?" Asked Wing and Gon nodded. Then, Gon used his Ten. "Zushi, what do you think?" Asked Wing. "I-it's incredible! The aura is flowing all around him! It's soft and calm. But it's also really strong!" He exclaimed. "I did it! Whew... I thought I would've forgotten!" Exclaimed Gon.

"Once you learnt the technique, you never forget it." I stated, smiling. "Indeed. However, in order to become a master, you must train hard." Stated Wing. "But it's easier than before, despite not using Ten." Said Gon. "That's because you were training your spirit each day. Now, look at your left hand." Wing said, as Gon did exactly what he did, then let out a small gasp. "It's snapped!" Gon exclaimed. "By applying my own Nen, I tied the thread such that if you broke your promise and used Nen, it would snap." Wing said.

"Hey, Wing-san. Did you watch Kastro and Hisoka's match?" Asked Killua. "Ah yes, I did infact." Said Wing. "What was the ability he used? Could we send those limbs flying around?" Killua asked. "You know, you could've asked me..." I muttered, pouting. "That's a difficult question. Gon-kun, have you seen the fight on video?" Asked Wing. "You do realise I know both his abilities, riiight?~-" I asked, though, however, I got cut off by Gon. "No, not yet." Gon said. "Well, I'll let Sakura explain while we watch then." Wing stated, seeing as how I know Hisoka. He then showed us a CD/DVD, obviously containing the match.

Wing then inserted the CD/DVD into the TV, causing it to show Hisoka. The TV then showed the part where Hisoka did the falling cards trick. "Do you guys see the threads of pink aura from his left hand?" I asked as I paused the TV on the part. "Threads of aura?" Asked Gon, confused. "Mhm. Do you see them on the screen?" I asked. "N-no..." Muttered Gon. "I can't see a thing! Are you sure there are threads of aura, Sakura?" Asked Killua. "Same here..." Stated Zushi sadly. "Are there really threads of aura?" Asked Gon. "There are. Hisoka's using a technique that makes his aura difficult to perceive. It's a high level version of Zetsu, called In. When using In, even some of the strongest opponents you may face might find it hard to see your aura. An effective way to counter this is to use Ren, but focus it on your eyes. Another technique called Gyo. The thing Gon used in his fight with Gido might work aswell." I stated, almost out of breath from talking. "Exactly. And so, my assignment for you both is to learn Ren and focus it on your eyes until you can see Hisoka's In." Stated Wing. "Uhm.. M-master, what should I do?" Asked Zushi, curious.

"Zushi, you should be strong enough to see past his In." Wing stated, smiling. "I should?" Asked Zushi, full of doubt. "Zushi, show them your Ren." Said Wing. "O-osu!" Exclaimed Zushi, readying his stance, then, activating Ren. 'That ain't bad.' I thought to myself, smiling. "Now, direct that aura into your eyes." Wing stated, a hand on his hip. Man, what's it with all these people and putting a hand on their hip? "Osu!" Zushi then changed his stance again, activating Gyo, but he looked like he had a hard time maintaining it. "Now, can you see the aura that emanates from Hisoka's body?" Wing asked as Zushi stayed focus and concentrated. "Yes." Replied Zushi. "How many threads are there?" Wing asked. "Twelve... No, thirteen!" Exclaimed Zushi. "Not quite." Stated Wing. "You were close enough, though, Zushi. With enough practice, you'll be able to use Gyo in on-going fights. Do you understand? First understanding and practicing Ren, and master the Ren application known as Gyo. Then you'll fully understand the nature of Hisoka's ability. And will you be able to use the same ability? My answer is both yes and no. Regardless of what Hisoka's precise ability is, so as long as you know Nen, you can learn it. However, Nen powers depends on the particular individual. Each of us possess different specialties and preferences. Thus, Nen differs for each person. If you're serious about mastering Nen, you shouldn't merely copy others abilities." Wing stated as I mentally sweat-dropped. '..Sorry Kite and Izuku...' I thought to myself. "It's better if you identify your own strengths." Wing continued.
