Chapter 77 - Chapter 77: Lightning · White Thunder Nuclear Blast (Red)! VS Sauce-kay's Chidori!

Having the [Emission Talent] (Purple) meant that [Lightning Nen] (Red) could be used to perfection!

More importantly, he now had the [Emitted Ball] (Gold) trait (from Silva).

This meant Ryker could literally shoot lightning.

Bzzzt bzzzt~~~

Electric arcs jumped in his palm. Before, he only used lightning to enhance his body or coat his attacks.

Now, with the Emission talent, the concept changed entirely.

Zap—

With a thought, the current around his fist intensified. It condensed into a ball of lightning, crackling loudly.

"Eh? Not right. Kakashi's Chidori sounds like birds chirping, not like popcorn."

Ryker was puzzled. He tried to control the shape.

Nen was easier to control than Chakra. He could manipulate every thread.

Of course, only a monster like Ryker could do this. Ordinary masters couldn't.

Hum hum hum~~

Ryker tuned the frequency like a radio. The sound sharpened from crackling to chirping.

A true Chidori scream.

But then...

He pushed the frequency higher.

When it crossed a certain threshold, the sound... disappeared!

It entered the ultrasonic range.

Higher frequency. More terrifying power. Yet silent.

Lightning · Chidori was formed. But it was different from Sasuke's (Sauce-kay's).

Sasuke's Chidori screamed and leaked energy. It looked cool.

But in Ryker's hand, the lightning became obedient, condensing into a solid white sphere.

Lightning Ball!

Silent. But terrifying.

The air around the ball boiled—or rather, it was pushed away by ultrasonic vibrations, forming a thin vacuum layer!

The space around it warped.

"Compressed to this degree... it's at least 10 times denser than Sasuke's Chidori. Maybe 100 times!"

Ryker marveled. He dispersed the energy and reabsorbed it.

Being a Hexagon Warrior with Red/Black traits allowed him to deconstruct a fully formed attack.

He reformed it into a grain-sized bead.

"Go!"

Ryker flicked the bead at the training target.

Room facilities on Floor 200 were top-tier, made of super-alloys.

The white bead vanished.

Instant transmission.

Because of the vacuum layer, there was zero air resistance.

BOOM—

A deafening explosion. Shockwaves sliced through the room like blades.

The entire upper section of Heaven's Arena shook.

The target evaporated. Behind it, the reinforced alloy wall was blasted open, leaving a 5-meter diameter hole.

"Uh..."

Ryker was dumbfounded.

He underestimated the nuke.

Sasuke's Chidori was a joke compared to this. Even Rasengan couldn't compare.

Riehlvelt was truly a saint for giving him the Emission talent.

[DING! Congratulation on creating a new Nen technique. Please name it.]

"Ten Thousand Birds? Nah... too weak."

"Call it White Thunder Nuclear Blast!!"

[DING! Acquired new skill: [Lightning · White Thunder Nuclear Blast] (Red)!]

Skill: [Lightning · White Thunder Nuclear Blast] (Red)

Effect: A top-tier technique developed by Ryker. Extremely compressed lightning (1M+ volts) with terrifying destructive power.

Simple description. But Ryker knew: at full power, this could blow the top off Heaven's Arena.

So satisfying!

"Brother Ryker!!"

"What happened?!"

"Sir! Are you okay?!"

Gon, Killua, and a panicked waiter burst in.

They stared at the gaping hole in the wall, jaw-dropped.

Settlement Area.

"Total repair cost: 800 million Jenny. If you can't pay immediately, we offer loans."

The receptionist (a white-trait mob) said calmly.

Ryker twitched.

So expensive!

Just for testing a skill?

Luckily, they had won about 400 million Jenny each from climbing the tower.

"Don't worry, Brother Ryker. Money is for spending. But what did you do?! You almost blew up the gym!"

Gon looked envious.

Ryker paid his share and borrowed some from the kids.

A transmigrator worrying about money? Shameful!

"Brother Ryker! Amazing! Was that lightning? I... I think I awakened lightning Nen too! Can you teach me?"

Killua looked at Ryker with puppy eyes.

After Ryker's "tutelage" (beating), Killua awakened lightning affinity early.

"Want to learn? Okay. But how much you learn depends on you."

Ryker smiled.

Killua was his lucky star (provided Red traits). Teaching him was fair.

He couldn't learn Nuclear Blast, but Chidori? Maybe.

"I want to learn too! Brother Ryker!!" Gon shouted.

"Let's go together!"

Ryker sighed. He owed Whale Island a debt. Can't forget his roots.

Meanwhile.

Kurapika, as per canon, was rejected for jobs because he lacked Nen. But destiny was guiding him to the Nostrade family.

Heaven's Arena.

Days passed.

Ryker farmed diligently.

With [Lucky Star], he got one designated drop daily.

He farmed weaklings for XP to upgrade his lower-tier talents.

Floor 200 traits weren't amazing, but he found some Blue Conjuration traits.

His [Conjuration Talent] reached Deep Blue. One more step to Purple.

Then he'd be a true Hexagon Warrior (all talents Purple+).

Training Room.

Bzzzt~~~

Killua held a chirping lightning ball. He looked constipated.

Creating Chidori was a heavy burden for him.

He didn't have Ryker's insane stats.

BOOM—

Killua flashed forward and slammed the Chidori into the target.

A loud bang.

The super-alloy target caved in and was pierced!

"Amazing!!" Gon gasped.

Killua was stunned.

He thought this power rivaled his father! (He was wrong, but let the kid dream).

Killua collapsed, panting. He was drained.

"Brother... Ryker... what is this move called? It's awesome."

"Yeah! Too strong! I wish I had lightning affinity!" Gon was jealous.

"This move?"

Ryker rubbed his chin and said solemnly:

"This move is called — Sauce-kay's Chidori!"
