"Hmm? Is he performing some kind of pre-battle prayer ritual?"
Iron Jaw was somewhat puzzled, but Violette saw it clearly.
"Idiot, he's obviously fulfilling the conditions for activating his Nen ability!!"
Violette said irritably: "Otherwise, who would do such a strange dance at this time..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly sensed a bloodlust emanating from beside her.
That was the bloodlust emanating from Mute, and... It was aimed at her!!
"Huh?!!"
Violette's body visibly stiffened slightly, then she turned her head in surprise to look at Mute, who was also covered in bandages.
"The bandages wrapped around those two..."
Iron Jaw looked back and forth between Mute and the dancing Bonolenov Ndongo.
"They look quite alike, don't they?"
They really are alike, practically identical!!
Mute and Bonolenov Ndongo both come from the same place.
And... Mute is just a nickname; his real name hasn't been mentioned in a long time.
Davalev Ndongo, that's his real name.
Just like Bonolenov Ndongo.
Both were from the Gyudondond Tribe, even sharing the same surname.
Davalev Ndongo left the tribe long ago.
The Gyudondond warriors produced sound through the holes in their bodies to attack.
But Davalev Ndongo did not like fighting; he only loved the sound of the wind passing through the holes in his body.
His philosophy contradicted the tribe's battle-oriented beliefs, so he left early to wander the six continents.
He developed his own Nen ability, met Kute, and joined the Kute Gang of Thieves.
Using Nen, he turned the holes in his body into resonance chambers, allowing him to hear and capture all sounds.
He fully mastered his sound-based Nen ability.
That was why Kute valued him.
But, even if he became a thief, he would not tolerate anyone insulting the Gyudondond tribe's battle ritual, not even a comrade like Violette.
Even after leaving, his pride as a Gyudondond warrior remained unshakable.
His reaction made Violette and Iron Jaw immediately realize something was wrong.
The two men wore similar bandages, and although they had never seen Davalev Ndongo dance, his reaction made one thing clear: "This dance is absolutely extraordinary."
That thought appeared in everyone's mind.
Even Kakradi, hiding inside the mirrors, felt the same.
"He wants to activate his Nen ability to break my mirrors?"
Kakradi shook his head inside the mirror.
"My mirrors are protected by Vows and Limitations. Ordinary force cannot break them."
"To shatter my mirrors, they would have to break every mirror at once."
"But that's impossible. Not even bombs can break my mirrors."
"Unless there is immense pressure applied to all of them simultaneously, but that's impossible—"
Kakradi suddenly froze.
His facial muscles twitched violently as he stared at the sky, at the colossal sphere forming above them.
Yes.
It was Jupiter.
It's ridiculous to say, but the sight was even more ridiculous.
A massive Jupiter descended toward the tavern.
Run!
Without needing to say anything, Phinks and Feitan had already evacuated in time.
Mute and Violette in the corner were also terrified.
Even Iron Jaw, who prided himself on his strength, was completely overwhelmed and immediately fled in a panic.
Violette managed to stay calm, but still managed to glance at Mute.
What she saw was the other party's utterly shocked gaze.
Violette: "...?"
So you don't even know what his Nen ability is like?! Then why did you unleash that bloodlust on me just now?!
Well, although they were all members of the Gyudondond tribe.
Everyone's Nen ability wasn't fixed.
Like Davalev Ndongo's Nen ability, his Nen ability was only related to sound.
And this Nen ability of their opponent... is clearly offensive!!
Bonolenov Ndongo's Nen ability is a conjuration type, called Battle Cantabile.
He attacks foes by playing different music with his body.
Among the techniques shown in the anime, the Battle Cantabile: Prologue allows him to conjure warrior attire as well as a spear.
He is extremely fast and can attack enemies with conjured weapons.
And this current move, Battle Cantabile: Jupiter, conjures a giant sphere, Jupiter, to crush the enemy.
And despite its enormous size, it moves incredibly fast. It's fast enough to reach the speed of sound!!
Therefore, under the terrified gaze of Kakradi... Boom!!
By sheer coincidence, the Jupiter summoned by Bonolenov Ndongo perfectly met the conditions of Kakradi's restriction.
To shatter so many mirrors at once, an enormous force must crush them all simultaneously.
Under normal circumstances, such a thing would never happen.
Even Franklin, the one best at large-area attacks, couldn't do that; his Nen bullets couldn't crush every mirror at the same moment.
But with Bonolenov Ndongo's Nen ability, everything became completely different.
Boom!!
The Jupiter slammed down.
The celestial body crashed into the ground, stirring up a violent storm of dust.
Crack! Crack! Crack!!!
The sharp shattering of mirrors and fragments flying out everywhere echoed instantly.
Even the sound of impact couldn't mask the sound of every mirror breaking.
Let alone what happened to Kakradi, who was still inside the mirror domain.
Pfft!!
Years of survival instinct allowed Kakradi, at the last second, to crawl out from the mirror farthest from Jupiter's impact.
He staggered out on all fours, face pale, and violently spat out blood.
Obviously, the destruction of all mirrors and the collapse of his mirror domain caused severe backlash.
His state was extremely weakened.
"What the hell, you have an Nen ability like that?!"
Kakradi wiped the blood from his mouth while growling: "Who develops a Nen ability that summons a damn satellite!!!"
"It's not a satellite. It's Jupiter."
Bonolenov Ndongo corrected him seriously.
"It's one of the nine planets."
Kakradi: "... I don't give a damn about astronomy!!!"
He didn't care about the difference between a satellite and Jupiter. All he knew was that his luck had hit rock bottom.
Enemies trapped by his Mirror Parasitism would always be at a disadvantage.
Even the smart ones would hesitate once the mirror domain was activated.
It was always he who held the advantage, time, terrain, and control.
Plenty had tried breaking his domain before, but none succeeded due to his restriction.
The only one who ever broke through was their boss, Kute.
That was the very reason Kakradi joined the Kute Gang of Thieves.
With his Nen ability, he had always been invincible, winning repeatedly with great success.
And now, he got crushed in the gutter.
"Just my luck... Running into someone who completely counters my Nen ability..."
His face twisted with humiliation.
