HxH in One Piece World

Chapter 1 Singing to the distant future...

Here, is a vast expanse of desert.

Everywhere you see.

The yellow sand is everywhere, and there is no end in sight.

There are no rocks and no plants.

Not even a single living entity was seen.

Can see, touch, feel.

All sand.

A human in a shabby black robe walks on this endless desert.

In the sky, the blazing sun hangs high.

The scorching heat scorched the air to the point of distorting it.

With such a high temperature, the man in black robe seemed to be unaffected by the slightest bit, and walked extremely fast.

Compared with the high temperature shrouded in the body, the things that make the people in black robes more concerned are—

In the ten days since he came to the desert, he has not felt the existence of wind at all.

Not even a slight breeze.

So that the whole desert is as still as a picture scroll.

It's weird.

The man in black robe lowered his head slightly, hid his doubts in the depths of his heart, and continued to move forward in silence.

time flies.

The sun sets to the west.

The sky gradually darkened, and the temperature began to plummet.

When the last ray of the sunset was still on the horizon, the man in black robe suddenly stopped.

Not because the night was about to fall, but because he finally felt a gust of wind.

A gust of wind appeared out of thin air.

It appeared without warning, and swept from afar.

A look of shock flashed across the black-robed man's eyes.

But I saw that the gust of wind that revealed its shape was actually wrapped in endless sand, and instantly formed an incomparably huge head—

"Sandworm..."

The pupils of the black-robed man trembled.

He looked at the huge sandworm made of sand.

Do not.

More precisely.

It is a huge mouth full of countless sharp teeth, covering the sky and the sun.

Also like the eye of the abyss, it is staring at him indifferently.

Trembling, silent.

This is the real feeling of the man in black robe at the moment.

But after all, he walked alone on this dark continent for several years.

After a brief tremor, he regained his composure.

"A gaseous lifeform..."

Looking up at the giant sandworm mouth full of terror and deterrence, the man in black robe made a judgment.

That concrete form.

Although it is made of sand, the core is a gas with vitality.

In theory, gaseous life forms can take shape with the help of foreign objects such as sand and gravel.

now.

The gas lifeform with the giant mouth of the sandworm is "gazing" at the black-robed man.

volume difference between the two.

Like an elephant and a speck of dust invisible to the naked eye.

The weird thing is-

The gaseous lifeform is always staring at the black-robed man.

The black-robed man who noticed this, his heartbeat gradually accelerated.

A fear of biological instinct was eating into his mind.

Then the next moment.

The giant mouth of the sandworm poured down.

The shadow of the sky that came with it, like an upside down sky, slowly enveloped the extremely small existence of the man in black robe.

There is no retreat, there is no escape.

A look of despair appeared in the eyes of the black-robed man.

at this time.

There was a high-pitched and enthusiastic piano sound in the distance.

The black-robed man was stunned.

How could there be the sound of a violin playing in such a place?

For a moment.

The black-robed man even thought he had auditory hallucinations.

But the next moment.

The giant mouth of sandworms that covered the sky and the sun fell apart without warning.

The pupils of the black-robed man trembled.

"Congeal!"

He reacted quickly and focused his thoughts on his eyes.

White light flashed from his eyes.

He saw the energy fluctuations that moved with the sound—

Straight to Huanglong captured the gaseous life form hidden in the huge amount of sand.

Like an absolute nemesis.

This behemoth was wiped out without the slightest difficulty.

"Exactly...who is it!!!"

The yellow sand scattered all over the sky, and the black-robed man couldn't hide the shock on his face.

"Yo hoo hoo..."

Just when the man in black robe was about to be submerged in the yellow sand, a characteristic laughter came from the yellow sand in the sky.

"It's been a long time since I met anyone."

"..."

The man in black robe followed the voice and looked.

Before the field of vision was covered by countless sands, he saw a slender and tall skeleton.

......

Time waits for no one.

An island shaped like a whale.

A black-haired boy was sitting under a big tree, holding a simple book in his hand.

The young man turned the book slowly, his movements were gentle and careful.

"Jin, play with me!"

A milky female voice interrupted the boy's thoughts.

The boy called Jin looked up at a little girl with a ponytail and a red dress in front of him, and ruthlessly refused, "No."

"I want it!"

The little girl puffed out her cheeks, and there was a mist of water in her round eyes.

"Mitt."

Jin said with a serious face: "I'm very busy, don't bother me again."

"you're lying!"

Mitt said angrily: "You obviously don't understand that book, and you're just pretending to read it every day!"

"I understand..."

There was an inexplicable luster in his golden eyes, and he said seriously, "Although only a dozen words were successfully translated, it's still 'enough'."

"Hmph, I don't believe it."

Mitt leaned over, pointed to the title of the book, and asked, "Then tell me, what's the name of this book?"

"d. Maud."

Jin held up the book and smiled.

Mitt looked at the smile on Jin's face, dumbfounded.

At this moment, she knew that Jin didn't lie to herself.

d. Maude.

It is the title of this ancient book that has been handed down in the family for hundreds of years.

.............

Time never waits for anyone.

Hunter Guild Building.

conference room.

Yinhu Guanxi, one of the twelve Earthly Branches, is a grumpy treasure hunter who occasionally doubles as a bodyguard.

a few days ago.

During his treasure hunt, he successfully discovered a huge mausoleum buried hundreds of meters below the ground.

I thought I could find valuable treasures.

As a result, he searched the entire mausoleum, but in the end only found a strange long sword with an ominous aura wrapped around it without a sheath.

now.

This strange long knife was placed on the long table in the conference room.

The other Twelve Earthly Branch members in the Hunter Association are all looking at the long sword.

With just a little concentration of energy in your eyes, you can see the pitch-black ominous aura emanating from the long sword, and danger is everywhere.

And after removing the power of mind.

Without the cover of the dark ominous atmosphere, everyone can clearly see that there is no rust on the black-purple blade, and the red zigzag pattern reveals an indescribable beauty.

at the same time,

Also sharp-edged.

"I want to confirm one more thing than this knife."

Wearing a white turban and slovenly gold, he looked at Yinhu Guanxi with his arms around him, and said with drooping eyes, "Kanxi, did you collapse that mausoleum?"

"That's right."

Kansai held his head and said carelessly.

As a treasure hunter, he doesn't care about the status of the tomb.

And Jin is now a pig in the twelve Earthly Branches, and he is also a professional relic hunter. Naturally, he is very concerned about the mausoleum ruins of unknown origin.

After hearing the fact that the mausoleum had collapsed from Kansai's mouth, Jin rubbed his wrist regretfully, and a little lustrous luster flashed from his fingertips.

"Jin, this is the conference room."

Xugou Qiduo, one of the twelve earthly branches, stared at Jin.

She noticed Jin's plan to beat Yinhu violently, and stopped in time.

Jin spread out his hands and dissipated his thoughts.

The other twelve Earthly Branches didn't care about Jin's mood at all, and they stared at the black and red long knife.

The aura that haunts it is full of ominous and dangerous.

It's hard to get close.

"So, what should I do with this knife?"

"Leave it to the Master of Exorcism?"

The crowd looked back and forth.

......

In an underground space that was pitch-black and could not see five fingers, but there was a light breeze blowing.
