The Boundless Journey, Starting From Bofuri

Time flowed on, and another nine days passed in the blink of an eye. Takeru successfully defeated his opponents, rising to the 200th floor, earning a private room and accumulating over 200 million Jenny...

As for Umaru, she was currently on the 150th floor. In terms of pure strength, Umaru’s current level was likely around the 150th floor. Using all her abilities, she might rise a bit higher, but was still prone to defeat...

After being defeated, Umaru trained even more diligently, slowing her pace of combat instead of fighting daily. Checking on her progress, Takeru didn’t comment on her choice.

Over these nine days, through continuous training, Takeru’s Aura Capacity grew significantly. Whether due to high base attributes or natural talent, his Nen increased rapidly.

Of course, Takeru knew his current level wasn’t exceptionally high yet. At most, he could maintain full-body Ken for just over two hours. Reaching three hours would require much more training.

His Shadow Corps was now highly proficient, with no issues like instability, making it suitable for protecting others in his absence.

Besides that, his pure physical attacks and the Emission-type Kamehameha were now in a preliminary, functional state...

However, unleashing their full power required some charging time.

As for helping Umaru develop Nen Abilities, Takeru had no immediate plans. It wasn’t out of stinginess, but because Umaru wasn’t like him. Forcibly awakening her Nen could be fatal. It was better to let her progress slowly.

Moreover, Takeru suspected the Reincarnation Space rewards might include Nen. After all, a side mission was to obtain a Hunter License, but with only about ten days left after getting it, there was no time to learn Nen in this world. So, the Reincarnation Space might offer it.

Or perhaps, Nen exchange would become available after everyone returned this time...

Takeru believed the Nen System had a very high ceiling. Most importantly, it seemed compatible, able to blend with other systems without conflict, which he valued highly...

Now, Takeru headed to the 200th floor to register. After easily enduring the ’baptism’, he reached the registration desk...

As Takeru ascended to the 200th floor, three individuals took notice.

"A newcomer?" One of them, sitting in a wheelchair, smirked.

"It seems that guy can use Nen."

"Probably."

"Welcome to the 200th-floor level. Please fill out this form with the required information. Would you like to apply for a match immediately? On this floor, matches operate on a declaration system. Each contestant has a 90-day preparation period."

"Within that period, contestants can specify their desired match date. Of course, if a contestant wishes to fight daily, that’s fine too. After participating in one match, you receive another 90-day preparation period. However, if you don’t fight within the period, you are immediately eliminated."

"All previously registered records will also be erased. Please remember this." The registrar explained patiently as Takeru registered.

"Understood. I’d like to register. I plan to fight for the next three days. Is that possible?" Takeru asked the receptionist with a smile.

"Of course. But are you sure you don’t want to wait and observe the situation? If you’re injured on the first day, you cannot cancel the second day’s match once registered," the receptionist kindly reminded.

"No need. Please register me," Takeru replied, shaking his head lightly.

As Takeru finished speaking, Gido, Riehlvelt, and Sadaso quickly appeared behind him. After Takeru registered and left, the three also approached the desk to register...

Takeru saw this but only offered a mocking smile before returning to his private room, 2202...

Compared to the 100th-floor rooms, the 200th-floor room was more luxurious and spacious, offering a scenic view through the window.

Later, Takeru saw on the room’s TV that his match applications for three consecutive days had been approved.

His opponents were precisely the [Newbie Hunters], Gido and the others he had just encountered...

Time flew, and the next day arrived. Amidst great anticipation, Takeru stepped onto the ring first. Having risen from the 1st floor to the 200th without a single loss, he was a highly watched newcomer...

Gido, on the other hand, had a record of 4 wins and 1 loss in 5 matches.

"The match begins!" As Takeru and Gido were ready, the referee announced the start.

Gido smirked at Takeru, quickly activating his Nen Ability... a skill leaning towards Manipulation.

His chosen weapon was a top. Watching him create numerous high-speed spinning tops, Takeru showed no panic.

"Go! Battle Waltz!" As Gido released his skill, the tops scattered across the ring, spinning rapidly.

They would occasionally collide, making their trajectories increasingly unpredictable.

Yet, facing the top attacks, Takeru simply stood calmly. When the tops attacked, Takeru easily dodged them.

Whether from the front, back, or sides, Takeru avoided the tops with simple, graceful movements.

Takeru wasn’t in a hurry to finish Gido. Instead, he used this opportunity to hone his evasion skills...

Time passed, and soon thirty minutes had gone by. During this time, Takeru hadn’t attacked once, and Gido’s attacks hadn’t hit him either, filling Gido with a sense of foreboding.

If their positions were reversed, Gido doubted he could completely evade those chaotic tops...

"Alright, I’ve practiced enough. Thanks for the training. But now, it’s time for you to leave." Speaking lightly, Takeru tilted his head to dodge a top charging from behind and walked straight toward Gido.

"Hmph! You might dodge the tops, but you can’t possibly attack me! Take this! Tornado Top!" Seeing Takeru approach, Gido felt uneasy but quickly began spinning himself.

This move made him both offensive and defensive. Usually, this prevented opponents from getting close, forcing them to endure attacks from the smaller tops on the ring...

"Not a bad tactic. But this only works against weaklings." Takeru sneered, Nen swirling around his hand as he activated Ken.

Using Gyo might kill Gido with one punch. Considering Gido’s role as a sparring partner, Takeru held back.

With that thought, Takeru threw a punch.

Boom!

Gido, still spinning, flew back as if struck by a tremendous force and fell unconscious.

"Contestant Gido is unconscious. The winner is Takeru!" The referee quickly announced the result.

Hearing this, Takeru left the ring with an air of boredom.

The gap between them was too vast. Still, today’s evasion practice was useful.

Sadaso and Riehlvelt, watching from the stands, stared in shock. They realized they might have hit a wall this time...

Time flowed on, and another three days passed. In his matches against Sadaso and Riehlvelt, Takeru easily defeated them both. They lost before even using their skills.

On the final day, Takeru didn’t fight. Instead, he and Umaru explored the city, spending almost all their money before finally departing this world in a flash of light, satisfied.
