Title: Alloy vs Hisoka...
….
Alloy charges at Hisoka head-on, he is too quick, even with his big body. Plus in this enclosed space in the hallway, Hisoka doesn't have a lot of places to dodge to.
Baam!
So Alloy body slams Hisoka through the wall, it breaks every rib in his body, his chest almost caved in. He winces at this as his body hits the ground.
Hisoka didn't have time to prepare for the battle and while his Bungee Gum is very versatile, it isn't good against raw power types in close range. 'Especially in an enclosed place like this, I can't escape any of this man's attacks.'
Alloy charges at Hisoka again, planning to plummet the man to the ground. But the clown has already used <Bungee Gum> and stuck it to Alloy's body and also the building around them.
The building shakes a little, but Alloy is fully stopped in his charge. But he is still ferocious and confident as always.
'What a monster,' thinks Hisoka. Even he is cautious against the man in front of him. So he uses his <Bungee Gum> to keep his ribs in place and gluing them away from his lungs so they don't pierce them. 'Well, Machi should be here in a couple of days, so she will help me heal this.'
He then takes out a card and concentrates all pg his Nen in it by using Shu.
Fwish!
A big arm flies in the air, Alloy's arm… he looks at it and frowns. But then he suddenly smiles and punches the ground.
BOOOM!!!
The floor is all cracked and the rooms around them become loose, just enough for Alloy to be able to rush Hisoka once more. He doesn't even bother with his cut off arm as he just contracts his muscles to stop the bleeding.
He knows that he only needs to bash Hisoka one more time and the clown is done for. Because while on the outside Alloy might be missing an arm and seem more hurt. In reality, Hisoka is the one in a pinch.
But the clown already has his Bungee Gum attached to the end of the room so he dodges Alloy's attack easily.
Alloy sees this and jumps up at incredible speeds going towards Hisoka like a wild beast. But he didn't see that Hisoka has been using In to hide his <Bungee Gum> that has now surrounded the whole room, and as Alloy, attempts to bash Hisoka. The Enhancer has been trapped in a cocoon of Bunge Gum.
'If this was an open ground battle… I would have had such a low chance of winning.' Thinks Hisoka, using Shu to concentrate his Nen in his cars and getting ready to cut another one of Alloy's limbs.
Fwosh!
This time he goes for the leg, but to his surprise.
Cling!
The sound of metal clashing rings out, Alloy had concentrated 80% of his Nen on his leg and Hisoka had no way to get through it. That is when the leg with the Nen suddenly moves up and gives Hisoka an upper kick. Though he can get his hands up in time to defend.
"Bad move you lame Clown," insults Alloy.
Booom!
The damage is catastrophic to Hisoka, as both his arms break in three places each just from one kick, and his chest caves in. Making Hisoka hit the ceiling roughly and go through it.
*cough* Hisoka coughs out a fistful of blood at this. Feeling one of his lungs pierced by one of his ribs. So he can't even talk anymore as his lungs fill with blood. 'Damn, that guy is strong. In an open space, I could have dodged that hit.'
But still, Hisoka closes his eyes and concentrates his Nen on the inside of his body. He uses Bungee Gum to close the bleeding inside of his lung… at least temporarily before he gets real medical treatment. But still, the clown gets up, though he sways a little and seems as if he is about to fall.
Alloy sees this and even though he is trapped, he smirks. "Heh, wanna try again, you stupid clown."
Gon and Killua are looking at this from the sidelines, shocked at how Alloy was able to beat Hisoka to such a state. Except for the cut off arm, the giant of a man wasn't injured otherwise.
Hisoka looks at Alloy and thinks. 'There is no way I am getting through his defense a second time. I need a way to beat him… right, he is still human. So if I use Bungee Gum and attach some cloth around it. I can choke the man to death. Heh, that sounds like fun at least,' as Hisoka contemplates this he looks at Alloy and sees that the man is fully on guard. 'Yeah, I am not gonna be able to get close to him at all. But at least he is trapped now, so he can't move.'
Alloy on the other hand is fully confident in this fight, not even a sliver of doubt is in his mind. 'Heh, you clown sh*t, come close and let me bash that fu*king head of yours into mush.'
Hisoka could see the malicious look in Alloy's eyes. The man was pretty much saying his thought out loud with that look of his. Alloy has no plan, no secret strategy. He is gonna take on Hisoka like he does everything in life, head-on. The clown smiles back, takes out a dozen of his cards, and charges at Alloy.
As he gets close, Alloy smirks and concentrates 70% of his Nen on his leg. This is the final hit that he plans to hit Hisoka with.
Fwosh!
He kicks forward as soon as Hisoka is within his range. The clown saw the attack from a mile away, so with a Bungee Gum attached to his back, he dodges by the hair a hit that would have shattered his head into a million pieces.
Fwish!
He throws all of the cards that he has been gathering Nen into, each of them goes towards Alloy's critical spots in the body.
Each of them lands and draws a little blood, as Alloy is using only 30% of his Nen to defend his body. But still, those were all just very minor injuries. Nothing that he would need to be worried about.
Once again, both of them are at a standstill. Alloy is standing still as his movements as being held back by the Bungee Gum attached to his body. Usually, Hisoka wouldn't be able to dodge one of Alloy's kicks, but now he can.
The battle of Nen isn't one of raw power (in most cases). Alloy would trump Hisoka in Nen Amount, strength, speed, and even fighting experience, though the latter is very debatable as they both have been in countless battles. Still, Hisoka was able to trap Alloy, in a way that gives him the advantage.
'Hm, that could work,' Hisoka finally gets an idea and charges again. This time he throws three cards at Alloy's genitalia. Causing the man to panic slightly and quickly use his legs to kick them away from his precious place. But while he was distracted by this, Hisoka drops down from above, his Bungee Gum attached to his feet.
Fwish!
A spurt of blood flows from Alloy's eyes as his sight is taken away from him in an instant of panic.
"Fu*k!!" Alloy swears out in annoyance. His loss of concentration on his target for a split second cost him so much.
But he isn't any less confident in himself as he spreads out his Aura and uses En. A method with which he can sense any movement within 10 meters of him. But this leaves his body almost defenseless as his Nen is spread out to sense. 'Though I can only barely move, I can now dodge at least.'
'Hmm… surprisingly a brute like him knows how to use En, and quite good too.' Contemplates Hisoka, once more at a standstill. But now he can see himself winning this fight if he is careful and doesn't get hit by Alloy anymore, just another hit from the man, and Hisoka will be dead. He knows that, so he prepared.
"I think you guys should stop it," a feminine voice comes and Karla is there, standing upside down on the ceiling. Her body was fully covered in bandages.
"Hm~ I am just about to win," says Hisoka. "I don't like interrupting my games until I gain a… critical win."
"Karla, don't intervene. Trust me, I got this in the bag," says Alloy with a confident smile on his face as he gives a thumbs up.
"I wasn't asking you to stop. I was ordering both of you to do so," insisted Karla. "These are Sub's orders, and if you don't like them… then I will kill you both."
Her bandages unwrap from her body and like worms, they start hovering around. They all have heavy Nen inside of them, Karla's raw Nen and conditions have made the bandages almost indestructible by normal means. Even though she rarely uses them for fighting.
"Oh, if Boss says so then I will stop." Alloy is the first to agree to this. His pride doesn't matter as it is overturned by his respect for Sub. He sees the man as someone who has reached the apex of Nen, a place where he too wants to reach. Sub is in a way, his idol and rival… though his Boss doesn't see him as a rival at all, and never saw him as one.
"Well, that is nice and all," Hisoka has a smirk on his face as he can't stop himself. "But I would like to finish my game now."
"Okay, then die," says Karla simply. Before her bandages swipe at Hisoka, the man attempts to use the Bungee Gum that he has attacked to the ceiling to dodge, but his eyes widen as that small part of the ceiling to which his Bungee Gum is attached, falls. So did his chance of dodging.
Fwish!
Immediately, like razor blades, Karla's bandages sink into Hisoka's skin and he bleeds out a fountain of blood. 'Sh*t, I am gonna die!!!'
*break*
He kicked through a wall and luckily saw window as Karla started attacking him, he couldn't handle her for even a second as instantly got heavy external injuries from her too.
He then jumps though the window and starts falling from the 200th floor.
….
A/N: As we can see a battle of Nen isn't one of simply just raw power. Strategy and even the environment plays a big deal into it. The fight would have gone completely different if they were in an open area.
