Gourmet Hunter (HxH Fanfic)

Hisoka and Law had crossed paths twice.

At the first encounter, Hisoka was caught off guard and his cheek got swollen.

In the second encounter, he fought seriously and his right foot was removed.

Though their actual exchange was not long, but after several rounds of confrontation, Hisoka had a general understanding of Law's Nen Ability.

When touched by the white glowing spheres in Law's hands, both Aura and body parts could be summed up with a single word: severed.

It could strip away Aura, remove limbs, and sever Bungee Gum effortlessly. However, it wasn't lethal.

There is one thing that intrigued Hisoka.

Whether it was their first exchange or now, Law seemed to be very familiar with the characteristics of his Nen Ability. Whenever he successfully used his Nen Ability, Law's reaction was always very quick, and the means of handling it were very correct.

'If Law is really my nemesis, that's not bad.'

Hisoka licked his lips with his tongue. When he saw Law casually throw away his right foot, a light flashed in his eyes and he made an almost suppressed sound: "Ohhh~"

Since the severed limb didn't bleed, didn't hurt, and remained under Hisoka's control, it would be a mistake for Law to throw away his right foot out of disgust.

"Without your right foot, you still want to fight?"

Law frowned as he looked at Hisoka, who was still emitting sinister Aura.

He will set out to carry out the Elder's mission the day after tomorrow. There is no point or benefit in continuing to fight, and it will be bad if he gets hurt too badly.

If possible, Law preferred to end things here.

Hearing what Law said, Hisoka's mouth curled up and without a word, he rushed towards Law.

Although his speed was reduced, it was not very obvious. Although his right foot was missing, it did not hurt, so it did not affect his running efficiency.

"Why bother?"

Law discreetly glanced at Hisoka's right foot, which he had thrown not far away, and then took the initiative to face Hisoka who was rushing towards him.

Though Law's hand-to-hand combat skills weren't weak, but Hisoka's are slightly stronger than his, which is why Hisoka was able to gain the upper hand in the previous confrontation.

But now, Hisoka is missing his right foot, which Law conservatively estimates will weaken Hisoka's strength by at least 30%. This is enough to make Law advance instead of retreat.

The two engaged in close-quarters combat once more.

After knowing the characteristics of Law's Nen Ability, Hisoka's movements seemed to be shackled. He became timid and unable to attack to his full potential. After all, if he was caught by Law, he would inevitably lose another part of his body.

Despite this, when facing Law's unrefined but fast punches and kicks, Hisoka was able to cope with it even though he lost his right foot.

After exchanging blows for over ten rounds, Hisoka suddenly retreated several steps, then a pink light appeared on his left hand as he pulled back with force.

However, the Bungee Gum he had successfully attached was severed by Law again.

"Ah~"

Seeing this, Hisoka sighed, feigning disappointment.

During the melee, Hisoka had deliberately avoided direct contact with Law's hands, but occasional brushes were inevitable. At those moments, he reinforced the Aura around his body to protect the areas touched by Law, ensuring they weren't instantly severed.

Under these conditions, Hisoka launched aggressive attacks, he covertly stuck his Bungee Gum on Law during the brief physical contact. However, his efforts were futile.

Close contact and then sticking to Bungee Gum is an attack method that others cannot defend against. Usually, as long as Bungee Gum is stuck on the enemy's body, the balance of victory basically tilts towards Hisoka.

However, facing Law, who could easily cut off Bungee Gum, this strategy was rendered useless, causing Bungee Gum to be used only as an auxiliary at best, and not for direct attack.

Hisoka's carefully laid trap was foiled once again, leaving him visibly disappointed. However, a faint smile crept onto his face. His real purpose wasn't to win outright, but to get back his right foot that was taken away from him.

"You're trying to get your foot back, aren't you..."

When Hisoka smiled, Law also smiled slightly and suddenly moved.

Hearing this, the smile on Hisoka's lips suddenly froze. Just as he pulled back with his right hand to retrieve the severed foot, Law closed the distance and cut off the Bungee Gum that was stuck to Hisoka's severed right foot.

When the 'rubber band' suddenly snapped during contraction, Hisoka's right hand slightly lifted back. At this time, Law took the opportunity to get close. He shrunk the effective range of his God Hand to concentrate its power on his fists, and launched a fierce attack on Hisoka.

Because of this slight movement of raising his hand, Hisoka lost the initiative and was immediately suppressed by Law's relentless attacks.

Bang, bang, bang…

The sound of fists meeting flesh echoed with each strike.

Their hands tangled in midair, creating a storm of blurred punches. Every clash generated gusts of wind as their blows collided.

During this process, the Aura in Hisoka's body was gradually siphoned away. If he did not have a certain foundation in the redistributing and managing his Aura, his hands might have already been severed by Law's God Hand long ago.

Having gained the upper hand, Law pressed his advantage without mercy. Occasionally incorporating kicks into his attacks, he began leaving visible injuries on Hisoka's body.

'Not good…'

With the Aura in his body slowly decreasing, Hisoka started feeling the strain.

Because of the pressure, he gradually gathered the Aura from other parts of his body into his chest, abdomen and hands, looking for opportunities to counterattack while resisting Law's attack.

Hisoka knew that Law's Nen Ability was limited to his hands, so the focus of his attack was Law's arms and shoulders. As long as Law lost control of his hands, his advantage would vanish, turning him from a mighty tiger into a helpless cat.

"You still haven't realized it, have you?"

While Law was maintaining his offensive, he still had the energy to speak.

Hisoka's eyes narrowed slightly, but he remained silent.

Unlike Law, who still had energy to spare, Hisoka had no time to speak.

Suddenly, Law's punches became noticeably faster. Hisoka, sensing the change, adjusted quickly, but his stable rhythm was immediately disrupted. Even so, he was able to quickly restore the rhythm.

However, Law took advantage of the moment when Hisoka's rhythm was disrupted, and his right hand turned into a palm knife, slashing at Hisoka's neck, which was only protected by a small amount of Aura.

Ssshhh…!

Under the dim glow of the night, a head was sent soaring into the air.

Hisoka's head rotated slowly in the air, his eyes fixed on his body, with a rather strange expression on his face.

Although it is not painful or fatal, and even a lingering sense of connection to his body, the act of decapitation had a disorienting psychological effect, momentarily halting his focus.

'My head was chopped off, so I shouldn't be able to control my body.'

With that belief in mind, Hisoka's body paused. Law capitalized on this pause and channeled all his strength into a powerful kick to Hisoka's abdomen, sending the body hurtling backward.

As his body was kicked away, Hisoka groaned as his head, which was still in the air, felt the pain in his body.

Thud!

A moment later, Hisoka's head hit the ground and rolled several times before coming to a stop. Fortunately, his head was standing upright instead of falling sideways.

His face was facing Law, and his body slowly stood up, as it was still under his control.

"This is truly fascinating."

Hisoka looked up at Law, but he didn't show any fear at all. Instead, he had an amusement expression.

"Now that you're like this, you should stop, right?"

Law glanced coldly at Hisoka's head, which stood upright on the ground, and his body standing motionless not far away, then conjured his book.

Page 5: Hisoka Morow, male.

After confirming this, Law dismissed the book and turned to leave.

As Hisoka looked at Law's departing back, his mouth curled up to an almost exaggerated arc. Then, he said: "I give up. How about helping me reattach my head?"

"With your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to put it back by yourself. Wasn't that what you were planning to do when you wanted to get your foot back just now?" Law didn't stop and waved his hand with his back to Hisoka.

'Spot on...'

"Mm-hmm ~"

Hisoka subconsciously stuck out his tongue and slowly circled it around his lips. The expression on his face was distorted at this moment, as he was too excited.

"Law, your Nen Ability is not cruel enough. No, I should say... you are not cruel enough!"

Law's figure gradually disappeared into the night, but it was unknown whether he heard what Hisoka said.
