171 Let me hear you roar (1/2)

”The previous Chairman fought against the Chimera King on this land, humanity had to result with nuking this area.” The old man finally answered Izan, even whilst being under such pressure, the old man spoke calmly. The pain didn't hinder him from thinking clearly, and he knew one thing for sure, that struggling against the man in front of was not a good idea.

Izan raised an eyebrow slightly, he had met with the Chimera Ants in the Dark Continent when he had met with Hisoka, but he had managed to kill all of them with his mere pressure. But now he was being told that the human race had to nuke the leader of the Chimera Ants.

As much as Izan wanted to laugh, he held it down for now as he stared at the old man. It didn't take long before his gaze went somewhere else towards the direction he came from, his eyes narrowed slightly as he felt something had happened. But Izan didn't worry about that as he knew that Calypso, Defying and Jiutian would be able to protect the rest no matter who they faced.

Instead of worrying about needless things, Izan placed his gaze back on the old man once again, his eyes squinted without him knowing. ”You followed me here, so you knew about the ones I was travelling with. Does that mean, just like you tried to attempt killing me, there's someone who tried to kill my wives?”

Izan was sure of one thing, that an assassin with the same strength of this old man has no chance of being able to survive if he attempted to ambush one of his wives. A smirk slowly appeared on Izan's face as he laughed. ”Hahaha.”

When Izan laughed, the old man furrowed his eyebrows for the first time. He had gained an important piece of information, that more than one of the women that he travelled with are his wives, but the old man was wondering about why Izan wasn't worried about them if he knew that an assassin was trying to aim for their lives.

A red Nen suddenly gushed out of Izan as he stared at the old man coldly. ”Tell me your name.” Izan's Nen bombarded the old man.

”… Zeno Zoldyck.” Zeno uttered his name out against his will, he quickly figured out that it was Izan's Nen that forced him to speak his Nen, yet Zeno wasn't worried as of now because many people has heard of him.

Izan reached his right hand out and softly grabbed the air as his scythe appeared gracefully for him to hold. The tip of the scythe swiftly found its path to Zeno's neck.

Zeno wasn't even able to see Izan's movements as his scythe was already resting near his neck, he saw the cold expression on Izan's face. Zeno was able to see that Izan really wanted to kill him but refrained from doing so at the last moment.

”I won't kill you, Zeno.” Izan suddenly spoke out in a deep voice whilst staring at the old man. ”I will allow you to live, because in the near future, you will see a reason to bring up a force to fight back. At that time, resist to the best of your abilities, because not only will your life be on stake, but everyone you know will be too.” Whilst Izan was speaking, his Nen vanished for only his Aura to appear.

The greatest difference between Izan's Nen and his Aura was the pure destruction it left behind. Small dark holes appeared in the air around Izan and the ground ten kilometres around Izan cracked up like a spiderweb.

Izan had only let out his aura for a mere second before it vanished, and Izan had also vanished too from that location as he continued his travel further ahead.

But the one remaining in the midst of the destruction was Zeno… His ever so calm expression was nowhere to be found, he was panting heavily, and his body was hurting like every singe cell inside of him had been shaken by fear. Zeno tried to stand up even with all of his injuries, but only for him to fall once again to his knees. It wasn't due to his broken bones that he fell, but fear. He feared for his son which was assigned to assassin the people that were with the young man.

After having met up with the old man, Izan continued flying faster through the continent. The only reason he didn't kill Zeno yet was because he could feel that the old man was strong and that his wives could use him to develop their abilities in Nen.
