Chapter 1: The Hunter Exam

In an inconspicuous little restaurant in Zaban City of the Hunter World.

A young man wearing a Black t shirt with white pants was standing alone on an elevator heading underground.

After reaching underground the elevator doors opened and the man saw many people standing there, all of them are observing him.

The atmosphere is very tense but young man was also looking at them curiously as if tense atmosphere didn't exist.

Suddenly a small humanoid creature came to him and handed a numbered badge and told him that he should wear it on visible place and that he shouldn't lose it.

While observing everyone Archer thought

The death rate for the Hunter Exam had always been extremely high. Those without strength who relied on luck to get this far would most likely die during the exam.

However, Archer didn't care about the danger at all. This high-mortality exam held no difficulty for him.

He had once served as a Marine Vice Admiral in the Pirate World and had even become an Admiral candidate.

Clearly, Archer was a world traveler, and this wasn't his first time. Previously, he had travelled to the One Piece World and joined the Marines, started from a chore boy and eventually became an Admiral candidate through decades of hard work.

However, during a mission in the New World, he suddenly encountered one of the four emperors Big Mom who was in an Hunger Pangs state.

That day Big Mom chased him relentlessly as if she were on drugs. In the end, he was knocked unconscious by Big Mom Spear of elbaf move, and when he opened his eyes again, he was in this world.

After travelling through this world he was shocked that he travelled to yet another world. At first he thought that this was a normal world but when he saw on tv, 2 persons fighting each other and heard name Heavens Arena he know that he has travelled to Hunter X Hunter World.

In this world, his identity was that of a car salesman, but he didn't know anything about cars present in this world so he resigned immediately and found a remote place to begin training. It took him 5 years to train his body to its limit.

However, upon reaching this stage, he felt that he cannot improve himself no matter how he trained.

The physical fitness of people in this world is vastly different compared to the One Piece World. He had already developed this body to its limit, yet even so, it was far inferior to his strength in his past life.

In his view, if he wanted to break the limits of this body, he could only do so by learning Nen. Only then would it be possible to improve himself again and return to the peak of his strength which he has in One Piece World.

However, he do not know any Nen User who will teach him about Nen. Since the Hunter Exam happened to be taking place, he came to apply for it to learn Nen.

Archer looked at everyone faces while walking in the crowd.

Most were unfamiliar faces he hadn't seen before, but among them, a few familiar figures were particularly striking.

Gon, Leorio, and Kurapika stood together, clearly a familiar little group.

The white-haired Killua, stood far away, observing his surroundings just like him, seemingly very interested in the people around him.

Seeing these familiar faces, Archer felt quite emotional this was his first time meeting a protagonists of the world. In the world of One piece he died without even ever seeing Luffy, He has only heard it from Garp that he has a grandson.

Archer age is 23 years old this year, he might be similar age of illumi and Hisoka but their is very big age gap between Gon, Killua, leorio and kurapika.

While he was lost in thought, a short fat man with a brown hair and stubble walked up to Archer.

"Hello, my name is Tonpa. Nice to meet you, please take care of me."

Hearing the name "Tonpa," Archer narrowed his eyes, he naturally knew who the other party was.

Known as the Rookie Crusher, he specialized in targeting newcomers during the Hunter Exam.

But it seems that rather than becoming a Hunter, this fat man enjoyed the pleasure of pranking rookies. To put it bluntly, he was a psychologically twisted man.

However, Archer didn't care about such details. In the One piece World, he had seen countless such men. The pirates he had slain were so many that he didn't even remember the count. In his eyes, Tonpa was quite interesting.

"My name is Archer."

Tonpa then started to introduce All Candidates participating hunter exam to Archer.

"That man is called Bodoro, a powerful martial artist... This person is Todo, a very formidable wrestler... This is the Snake Charmer, Bourbon..."

Archer looked at everyone Tonpa introduced him to and listened tonpa very seriously.

His current strength was far weaker than in his previous life. It was good to know more information so he can handle situations.

When introducing Hisoka, Tonpa suddenly stopped mid-sentence. At the same time, Hisoka glanced over, scaring Tonpa into quickly looking elsewhere.

However, Hisoka only cast a curious glance at Archer before looking elsewhere. After all, there was no trace of Nen on Archer, making him appear unremarkable in his eyes.

Tonpa leaned closer to Archer and whispered, "You'd better stay away from that guy. See that corpse on the ground?"

"Just now, that person only bumped into Hisoka, but Hisoka killed him directly. That guy is very dangerous; you must be careful."

Archer nodded to show he understood.

He should stay away from a guy like Hisoka untill he learn nen, it will be very difficult to get rid of Hisoka once he targeted Archer.

Feeling the timing was about right, Tonpa took a can of juice from his backpack and handed it to Archer.

"You've come from far away, you must be thirsty. I have some drinks here, have some to quench your thirst."

Archer took the drink and drunk it and thrown the can aside, Tonpa handed 3 more cans of drinks.

Having trained his body to its limit, this little laxative won't work on him. To poison him Tonpa will need a very strong poison.

Suddenly someone shouted towards his direction.

"Tonpa! You're using expired drinks to prank people again! Don't drink his juice; you'll get diarrhea if you do."

Archer turned to look; the one who was shouting is Gon.

Leorio and Kurapika beside Gon had helpless looks on their faces. Given their personalities, they wouldn't have meddled, but since Gon had already shouted it out, they had to stand with him.

Seeing Gon's group interfere, Tonpa has a tick on his face clearly shows that he is very angry. But hindered by their numbers, he could only say to Archer, "Your luck is good, rookie that they stopped you from drinking more." With that, he turned and left.

Archer felt a bit helpless; he actually didn't dislike the guy and wanted to get more drinks from him. But since he had left, so be it.

He took out one can and started drinking and put away the remaining drinks and looked at Gon and the others, saying, "Thank you for the warning. My name is Archer."

Before Gon could introduce himself, a bell suddenly rang, drawing everyone's attention.

The first stage of the Hunter Exam had officially begun!
