...

"I see. I think I understand what he's planning." After listening to Gon and Killua's explanation, Mellie spoke thoughtfully.

"What do you mean?" Mika asked quickly.

Although Mika had sensed a hidden agenda when Gon and Killua came to inquire earlier, he hadn't grasped the specifics.

So, he called for Mellie, who was resting at the time.

"What is it?"

"Simply put, that bomber, Genthru, wants to avoid us and target others instead."

"Since he can't obtain 'Plot of Beach' from us directly, he plans to manipulate others into acquiring it, then steal it from them."

"So that's what's going on!"

Mika, Gon, Killua, and the others suddenly understood upon hearing Mellie's explanation.

Tsezguerra and his companions, who had accompanied Gon and Killua, wore expressions of fear.

Clearly, they had been targeted by Genthru and his group.

"But why is Genthru so confident that we would trade with Tsezguerra?" Airmid, who had been listening quietly, asked, puzzled.

"Because several extremely rare cards are exclusively held by Genthru and Tsezguerra. Without trading with them, it's impossible for us to collect all the cards," Mellie explained.

"I can't believe Genthru used us!" Tsezguerra exclaimed, clenching his fists in anger. "While I've been avoiding direct confrontation, that doesn't mean I'm afraid of him. Where does he get the confidence to think he can wipe us out?!"

"It seems we won't be able to complete the game peacefully unless we deal with Genthru once and for all!"

Tsezguerra then turned to Mika. "Since this is all Genthru's scheme, let's postpone the trade for now."

With that, Tsezguerra turned to leave.

"Wait!"

Mika suddenly called out to him.

Looking back at Tsezguerra, Mika said with a gentle smile, "So what if it's Genthru's scheme? He's not that important."

"What does our trade have to do with him?"

"Does that mean you're still wanting to trade?" Tsezguerra asked, his eyes lighting up with hope.

"Indeed," Mika confirmed.

"I heard you would pay any price, is that correct?"

"Yes!" Tsezguerra replied firmly.

However, Mika didn't see the same conviction in his expression.

But Mika didn't mind.

"I won't make things difficult for you. Before us, you and Genthru were the closest players to completing the game, correct?"

"That means you must have clashed with him before."

"Therefore, you should know which cards Genthru is missing. I want those cards."

Mika's smile widened as he observed Tsezguerra's increasingly troubled expression.

"The cards Genthru is missing...?"

Tsezguerra instinctively took a few steps back, contemplating the implications of Mika's words.

He considered another possibility.
