If not for Franklin's interference, Moses might have decided Chrollo's fate in those few seconds.
Unfortunately, that razor-thin margin slipped away...
With that crucial extremely crucial blow failed to achieve any effect, the pressure shifted entirely onto Moses.
Facing the encirclement and suppression by Chrollo and his team, Moses could actually use the Divine Script he had set up in advance to escape from the battle at any time and then look for new opportunities.
In addition, he also has the trump card, Rat Jewel, which offered a versatile two-choice effect.
However, if he chooses to temporarily leave the battle, then Biscuit, Kurapika, and Kastro would have to bear the brunt of Chrollo's team's assault for him.
Moses was not too worried about Biscuit. The worst-case scenario would be the Auntie embarrassing herself spectacularly under the public eye.
On the contrary, Kurapika and Kastro are likely to be seriously affected.
Therefore, before making any decisions, Moses had to consider this factor carefully.
If Hisoka were the only other person on the venue, then this multiple-choice question would become far simpler.
(Hisoka: ???)
Moses was always aware of the changing situation on the venue, so he decisively chose to activate the Netero Mask.
There was no point in worrying about whether it was wasteful or not...
After all, his action this time served two purposes: to challenge his own limits, and to annihilate the Phantom Troupe.
In order to ensure that his remaining Potential Aura can last until the very end of this battle, the value of the Netero Mask must be properly utilized...
The dark and ominous Nen swirled in Moses's hands.
No matter whether it was the Nen Users inside or outside the venue, they were all shocked when they saw the swirling black Nen in Moses's hand.
This is undoubtedly a Post-Mortem Nen.
Even a Nen Exorcist would be eager to sublimate or remove the Post-Mortem Nen that are absorbed into their bodies, let alone control them freely.
Yet here was Moses, seemingly in full control of the Post-Mortem Nen that came out of nowhere.
This kind of thing is totally unheard of. No one has ever seen such thing.
For most of the Nen Users watching this scene, the phenomenon defied comprehension.
But no matter what Moses planned to do next, Chrollo, Franklin and Satoga have already made their move.
Their advantage was at hand, and they couldn't afford to waste this rare encirclement opportunity.
"Franklin!"
Chrollo's sharp gaze cut through the tension as he called out Franklin's name. Spinning around, he delivered a precise roundhouse kick to the shadow clone, which had lost an arm, behind him.
Bang!
The shadow clone was sent flying through the air by Chrollo's strike.
Franklin, who was already alerted to the plan, redirected his muzzles in time and aimed at the shadow clone in mid-air.
Ratatatatata-
A torrent of Nen Bullets erupted from the muzzles on Franklin's fingers, shredding the shadow clone into fragments midair.
At the same time-
Chrollo steadied himself and stopped flipping the Bandit's Secret in his hand, while Satoga, who was in the amplified state, took one explosive step into Moses's defensive range.
From this position, he can threaten Moses with his Nen Projectiles, and he can also rely on the explosive power brought by his Three-Minute Heat to get in front of Moses in the shortest time.
Satoga chose the latter.
Because the chance of victory lies in-
Landing a single punch on Moses!
Before condensing the ominous black Nen, Moses's biggest concern was letting Satoga get close to him.
But now...
It was as if Moses had entirely disregarded Satoga's presence. With a slight bend of his knees, he suddenly leapt high into the air.
"Huh!?"
Seeing Moses leap into the air, not only Franklin and Satoga were stunned, even Chrollo, who was ready to activate his ability, could not hide his surprise.
They didn't understand why Moses would dare leap into the air with no leverage in this situation.
After all, such a reckless move seemed tantamount to suicide.
However, Chrollo didn't think Moses would make such a low-level mistake.
Clearly-
The sudden leap into the air must be related to the Post-Mortem Nen in his hand.
In this extremely short period of time, Chrollo was unable to predict Moses's plan due to the lack of information.
But no matter what Moses wants to do, since Satoga was the one at the forefront, he can at least increase his tolerance rate by relying on the Three-Minute Heat state.
All the high-speed cameras in the venue immediately locked onto Moses as he flew into the air.
In that moment, countless pairs of eyes followed the live feed, focusing on Moses.
'What on earth does he want to do?!'
There are countless doubts under the focused gaze.
Inside the venue…
Satoga looked up at Moses. He first sent a Nen Projectile hurtling through the air before leaping upward without hesitation, fully intending to engage Moses midair.
Thanks to the enhancement of Three-Minute Heat, his current offensive and defensive capabilities had been boosted by roughly 20%.
This is where his confidence comes from.
Below-
Franklin quickly moved towards Chrollo, while Chrollo remained focused on the situation in the sky, preparing to act the moment Shalnark successfully engaged Moses.
Then, it will be the time for him to activate the Nen Ability in the book.
And that-
Is definitely his best chance since this battle against Moses!
This was an opportunity that had to be seized!
To utterly extinguish Moses's last spark of life!
Chrollo's dark eyes surged with a storm of emotions.
…
In the air.
Moses could see the Nen Projectile that attacked first, and Satoga that pounced after it. He could also see Chrollo who had finished flipping the pages, and Franklin who was pointing his fingers-gun at him.
This coordinated assault was aimed at driving him into the ground, both literally and figuratively.
Facing the overwhelming threat closing in from all directions, Moses raised his hand and wiped the dark Nen that had not yet solidified towards his face.
[Illusion of the Thousand Changes: Netero – 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva]
Like a Sichuan opera's rapid mask change, Moses's hand brushed past his face, and a mask appeared instantly.
Simultaneously, his right hand, which originally controlled the dark Nen, had already clasped with his left palm in a prayer gesture in front of his chest.
Hummm-
A solemn, resonant Buddhist chant seemed to echo through the arena as radiant golden light enveloped Moses's body.
At the next instant, a pillar of golden light extended at lightspeed from him, smashing into the Nen Projectile heading his way.
In just a blink of an eye, the fierce Nen Projectile disintegrated within the golden light pillar.
"What!?"
Satoga, who followed closely behind, was struck with shock. Before he could process what had happened, another golden light pillar descended from above, slamming into him.
Boom!
Satoga was pressed heavily onto the arena floor by the golden pillar without any resistance. The impact force shattered the surrounding stone slabs into countless fragments.
"That is…!"
Just as the Nen Projectile and Satoga were bombarded by the golden light pillars, a solemn and majestic golden giant Guanyin appeared in Chrollo and Franklin's pupils.
