Chapter 134: Testing Shusui
After two days, An decided to go for the 200th Floor, which means he had to win on the 190th Floor.
Since there were only 10 floors between the two, the contestant there weren’t average.
The foes from that point on are stronger than others and any challenger requires significant power to defeat them.
An was already in ce on top of the ring. Looking around, he could see the stand full of people waiting to see an amazing fight.
Amongst the spectators, he could see Gon, Killua, and Hancock.
There was also Zushi and Wing, and even Hisoka was there.
This game will determine if An could advance to the 200th Floor, which those who knew his power knew that he could get there easily.
The audience voted for the most likely person to win, and 40% of the votes were in An’s favor, while the remaining 60% were against him.
“It seems that most people here think that I’d lose.”
Although An was surprised that he only had 40% of the votes, this caused his curiosity to be piqued.
‘Having 60% of the vote in favor of him winning, it seems like my opponent is strong.’
An directly nced at his foe on the other side and saw a man wearing a purple Yukata, arge saber on his waist, and an X-shaped scar on his face.
This guy’s name was Kentaro, and he is An’s opponent in this match.
ording to the Heavens Arena’s rules, contestants were prohibited from using weapons below the 200th Floor.
After reaching that Floor, the rules be rxed, allowing weapons.
Kentaro held the de’s sheath with his left hand while his right hand was on the hilt, ready to draw his sword at any second.
“It looks like a good sword.”
An’s gaze fell on the sword on Kentaro’s waist andmented.
“I will end this match with one blow,” Kentaro said in a deep voice.
“You seem confident.” An smiled and said: “Well, since you are going to use a sword, then I will fight with a sword as well.”
Kentaro frowned at An as thetter wasn’t carrying any weapon.
“The sword is here.”
An said before the storage ring on An’s finger gleamed strangely.
In the next instant, Shusui appeared in An’s hand.
An looked at Shusui apologetically since he didn’t use it for a long time now.
It was an excellent opportunity to use it now.
Kentaro stared at Shusui in An’s hand, and he could tell that it wasn’t an ordinary sword.
As for how the sword appeared in An’s hand, Kentaro didn’t care.
“This sword is Shusui, and it didn’t taste blood for a while; no, yours is the first in a long time.”
Hearing An’s words, Kentaro snorted coldly.
“Arrogant fellow, you will swallow your wordster.”
The referee used his hand to gesture the beginning of the match, and instantly Kentaro drew his sword out and shed at An.
An directly lounged at him with Shusui.
In a sh of light, the two passed each other in a second.
Blood dripped down on the ground from Shusui as An turned around and looked at Kentaro.
At this time, Kentaro wasn’t moving at all, and suddenly the sword in his hand snapped in two.
Blood dripped from Kentaro’s body, and soon it formed arge patch on the ground.
Silence filled the stands. They couldn’t see how the fight began or how It ended. They only saw the result of the battle.
An wasn’t affected by the silence and directly looked at the referee: “You can call the match.”
An nced at Kentaro, then at the referee.
Aftering out of his stunned silence, the referee directly entered the ring to talk with Kentaro.
“Kentaro, can you continue the fight?” but Kentaro didn’t respond as he remained motionless.
The referee realized something and touched Kentaro’s shoulder.
Thud!
Kentaro directly fell in the pool of his blood.
His eyes widened, and his expression bewildered, the referee eximed: “Dead, Dead?”
Not only the referee but even the spectators were taken aback.
Kentaro was dead. He died after a single moment by An’s sword.
When Kentaro’s sword was broken, his life was taken as well.
A swordsman didn’t fear death since the path of a sword was filled with death.
But Kentaro’s expression showed shock, fear, and regret. He couldn’t believe that he would die by An’s hand.
Instantly, the referee announced the winner, and An advanced to the 200th Floor.
Walking out of the ring, Gon, Killua, and the others gathered around An.
Gon directly said: “An, you’re cruel.”
Killua disagreed with Gon and said: “It was a good strike. Gon, you’re native.”
“I’m Na?ve?”
“Well, you probably don’t know Kentaro, but he wanted to kill An in this match.”
“Really?”
“It’s just that he wasn’t as strong as An, so he was killed. If he were stronger, An would be the one dead.”
Gon nodded without saying anything as if he understood something.
“But then again, An, I didn’t expect you to be so good with words. How many things are you hiding?” Killua asked curiously.
“Swordsmanship is just a hobby.” Anughed.
After chatting for a bit, An and Hancock went away, which Hancock took the chance to ask An: “I seem to know the sword that you have.”
An shrugged and said: “You have good eyes. This is Shusui, one of the O Wazamono series. It’s a product from your world.”
“No wonder it looks familiar.” Hancock nodded and didn’t question An from where he got it because she knew he wouldn’t answer.
