Chapter 16

Numbers 15 to 25. Those were the ones left. Hisoka and I arranged ourselves back to back in the center of the arena. As 4 of the following 10 opponents approached us, we both reactivated nen, and charged at them. In lightning speed I zoomed towards my two male opponents. One was shirtless, showing his muscular body and well build abs. His hair was short, and his eyes were thin. He had bandages all around his hands and ankles, and his shoes were broken. He charged at my face with an impressive amount of force. I quickly bend down, my hands under my shoulders. The metal belt he had around his waist shattered into pieces as I kicked him right were it hurt the most. The punch he tried to lay on my face exceeded into he air, as he stumbled forwards, his face ugly from the feeling of pain. I used a regular knife, this time without my use of nen, and stabbed his back. His heartbeat stopped, and I faced the other guy.

Hisoka was fighting two females. On small and toad like, the other large and heavily dresses. She had jewels and gems all over her arms and neck. The stones glowed mystical, and gave her an enigmatic flair. All I could make out before turning back to the second victim of my power, was the smaller one running towards Hisoka, a small knife in her hand. But to my surprise, the other just stayed put. She didn't move, nor dodge when Hisoka charged at her, the corpse of the toad lady still in his hand. Instead, she just opened her mouth wide, and led out an fiendish sound.

The stone walls started scattering, and my ears immediately went numb. The sound was high pitched, but dark and evil. It made my body shiver, and the hairs on my neck stand up. Blood ran out of my ears, my eardrums appeared to have suffered from this shock. I starred at the man in front of me, who was smiling, approaching me with a knife. His lips formed words, of which I didn't understand a single one. His footsteps made no sound, and as I jumped, I saw how Hisoka was crawled up, (imagine L. Lawliet from Death Note), his hands covering his ears in pain. He led out a scream, or so I suppose, since even that I couldn't hear.

My hearing. It's damaged. Fuck.

I never tried fighting without the sense of sound. Lets give this shit a try. I leaped in the air, fell down and started my nen knife. Covering it with poison, I used it to kill the man in front of me. Without holding back, I used 100% of my speed capacity and zooommmeeddd towards him. Hitting his vital organs in less than a second, I planted a small bomb into his heart. Those bombs were made out of pure nen, and counted to one of my rarest tools I used when fighting. This is mainly since they take long to prepare, and take up a lot more nen then the knifes. I grabbed him by the arm, threw him up into the air, and pushed him into the other opponents on my side of the stadium. I counted four, meaning that only two were left. His body was ripped apart, as the massive explosion dragged all five into death.

As I looked back to Hisoka, I could see him take one of his cards, and cut the screaming, or singin, whatever this sound may be, women. She had several cards of his stuck in her body, but each appeared weaker than the other. The cuts they made weren't deep, and she had a smile on her face. His ears also bled like mine did, and I saw him trying to make out a sound. He opened his mouth, said something, and closed it in shook. He stared at me, and I just nodded in response. We cant hear. She completely wrecked our ears.

His eyes shortly widened in shock, but he caught himself soon after. Using bungee gum, he wrote nen letters into he air. I saw him signal the sign for Gyo, and I concentrated nen into my eyes.

The nen letters I made out spelled: "I'll take care of her. You, kill # 24. We will both eliminate the boss together. Then let's take care of our ears", and soon disappeared. I nodded, and turned away. Can Hisoka take her alone? He seemed slightly weakened.

I shook my head, and turned towards number 24. It was a lady. Small, thin, agile, and dresses in black. Her cloak was blood covered and her eyes were numb. Without a Pupil. Just gray holes, starring right at me. Her face had a frown on it, and as I lifted my hands, hers did too. I looked at her ears. They were bleeding. I looked at her feet. They moved just as mine did. Her hands and fingers, they all moved corresponding to my movements. It wasn't completely in union tho. My clones movement were slightly delayed and therefor happens just a bit later than my did. And exactly this gave me an advantage.

I ran towards her, and simultaneously activated 10 of my nen knifes. 3 of them cloaked in poised, 5 invisible, 2 surrounded by flames. They all charged at her at maximum speed.

To my surprise, she dodged the fire ones with ease, and released her 10 knifes moments after I did. My poisons ones only served as distraction. She focused on them, as I focused on avoiding her knives. The poisoned ones flew low, which is why they were easy to avoid. Still using Gyo, I made out the invisible ones. They were fast, but I jumped and flipped, swiftly avoiding each and everyone of them. I saw blood drip from my upper arm, as I saw my copy scream in pain. 1 of the 5 invisible ones hit. Another blood puddle formed under my chest, as I saw my copy collapse. Another 3 had hit her vital organs, the last missed. Simultaneously to my joy, I screamed, at least I thought I did. I couldn't hear if I did or not, but I could feel the slight pain of two poison ones crawl up my leg as both of them struck through my right thigh. Fuck!! I was distracted by my own victory...

Watching the copy slowly die, I turned my head to where Hisoka was fighting the opera lady. She was covered in cards. The ones Hisoka just threw looked as if the fully passed though her leaving deep holes in her body, looks like he regained some of his strength. Her eyes rolled back into her head as her moth closed and she collapsed onto he ground.

Hisoka turned away from her and walked towards me. He wrote, "you okay?" with bungee gum into the air. I nodded, and stood up, walking with  a slight limp because of my right leg. facing the boss.

Number 25...
