Three-Way Struggle: Part 6 (
Summary[]
The Bombers check Gon, Killua, and Biscuit's cards, learning that they have three "Accompany" cards and each has one "Return" card. Genthru says that while the three kids have four options to escape, their group has six to chase them, and he asks Sub and Bara if they are ready to go. He adds that he will fight the one with black hair if force is needed, telling Sub to take the white-haired kid and Bara to fight the girl. He then uses "Accompany" on Gon, and the three rocket toward Gon's location in the badlands. Standing opposite them, Gon, Killua, and Biscuit all look nervous and on edge, while the Bombers appear calm and confident.
Gon asks them what they want, and Genthru replies that they have only come to negotiate. As Killua refuses to do so, Biscuit says to herself that they can't show any sign that they are completely prepared. Genthru tries his best to negotiate and says that even Tsezguerra agreed to the deal. He asks to move closer, but Gon yells at him to speak from where he is, with Biscuit internally praising Gon and saying that they need to appear scared and ignorant. She also says to herself that they need to make it seem like they arrived at a certain location after being chased there.
Genthru says that he and his team will clear the game and then split the reward with them after returning to Battera. Killua replies that he can't trust him after all his threats, but Genthru assures him that they have changed, adding that Tsezguerra has returned to the real world already. Killua says that they already know and that it doesn't prove that they made a deal with him. Genthru suddenly becomes serious, pushing up his glasses and asking them if they want to die where they stand. He threatens to kill them if they don't hand over their cards, but they quickly back away and Gon uses "Accompany" to escape to Soufrabi. Genthru chuckles and says that with no "Magnetic Force" or "Leave" cards, Gon's group only has two "Accompany" cards left.
The Bombers chase after them and force them to use the two remaining cards, with Gon, Killua, and Biscuit each using their "Return" card to head back to Masadora. Bara wonders if they plan to get more spell cards, but Genthru is confident that they are heading west and plan to leave through the harbor. He uses "Accompany" to chase after them, but when they land outside Masadora, they don't see the three of them anywhere. Genthru guesses that they are hiding and says that he didn't think of that. Gon, Killua, and Biscuit watch the Bombers from the dense forest, and Genthru says that they need to keep an eye on the shop to make sure Gon's group doesn't get any cards. As the Bombers stake out the shop and don't see any sign of the three, Genthru says that they must have headed west, but Bara adds that they could still be hiding.
After Genthru uses another "Accompany" on Gon, the Bombers chase after the three, and Genthru tells Sub and Bara not to lose them since that "Accompany" card was their last one. Gon, Killua, and Biscuit lead them deeper into the forest, with Sub and Bara impressed by their speed. As they wonder how long they can maintain it, all three suddenly stop in their tracks and confront the Bombers. Genthru playfully asks if it's over and again orders them to hand over their cards. Gon refuses to give in, and Biscuit says to herself that as they expected, the Bombers want to have one-on-one fights. Gon adds that he would fight before handing his cards over to them, and Killua tries to stop him aloud, but says to himself that now they need to separate the three of them.
As Killua begins to move and Sub mirrors him, Killua aims a kick toward his head, but Sub blocks it with his arm and punches him back. Killua says to himself that while he can't use his hands, they won't hinder him. Biscuit watches the two fighting, and Killua dramatically tells her to run away and save herself, with Bara running after her and yelling that she won't get away. Gon internally wishes the two of them good luck, but as he turns his attention back to Genthru, the Bomber quickly reaches out his hand to attack him.
