This man, codenamed "The Silent One," is the team's main scout, but his ability to perceive and utilize sound to the extreme is that of a "sound specimen maker."
It relies on its unique structure and the ability to project sound.
However, it provided their "Kurd bandit" group with a great deal of incredibly accurate intelligence and early warnings.
It's fair to say that without his presence, the Kurdish bandits would have faced numerous crises and desperate situations.
Even the endless traps aimed at them would have been impossible without this man.
They would have fallen into it long ago; to put it more bluntly, the "Kurd bandits" would have ceased to exist long ago.
"One of the guys was carrying a long sword and was also wearing wooden clogs..."
Through its peculiar ability to gather sound, the muffled voice of the [Silent One] spoke:
"It should be one of those two guys who came to cause trouble for you at the casino before."
"One of the members of that Phantom Troupe?! How did they find their way here?"
Ironjaw was quite puzzled. "Could it be that they also possess Nen abilities for detection?"
"No matter what methods they have, since they dare to come looking for trouble..."
The flippant voice followed with a cold laugh.
"Then we should be prepared to die here."
As he spoke, mirror-like objects began to appear around him.
Then, these lenses seemed to merge into the ground and quickly spread outwards.
In an instant, the entire tavern seemed to have turned into a mirrored space.
This is from Kakrade, who is known as the "Mirror Reversal," using his Nen ability, "Mirror Parasite."
It can use its transformation abilities to blend the surrounding environment and space with the mirror.
Thus, he created his own unique "mirror" realm.
It integrates offense and defense, and can freely switch between different states within this mirrored space.
It was precisely because of Kakradi's [Mirror] ability that he was able to easily cross those numerous defensive lines.
Get what you want to steal!
"They're coming."
After the mirrored arena was set up, the muffled voice of the [Silent One] rang out:
There are seven people in total.
"Is it the same as our [Kurd Bandits], a seven-person group?"
Kakradi, from the [Reversed Mirror], chuckled lightly: "It seems they must hate us a lot."
"Even their numbers are the same as ours. Did we kill their entire family?!"
The silent one remained silent, which he found somewhat strange.
Because in his perception of sound, he did not detect what Vionilet and Ironjaw had said.
That tall, muscular man.
The Silent One has no doubt about his abilities; his ability to perceive sound has been tested through countless life-or-death crises.
It's safe to say that it's absolutely foolproof.
People can deceive them, but voices cannot.
Unless~~~
"Either the other party possesses Nen abilities that evade detection, to the point that they cannot even detect my voice clearly."
"But that's highly unlikely..."
He has encountered so many crises in the past, and even in situations where there were specific measures taken against him, he has only failed once.
And coincidentally, on that occasion, the other party possessed the ability to create a vacuum.
As we all know, sound cannot be transmitted in a vacuum.
That was the time he was unable to obtain any information, but it wasn't a big problem.
Going forward, wherever there is sound, he will never miss an opportunity to obtain information.
It can be said that their "Kurdish Bandits" group does not tolerate idlers.
Almost everyone has their own purpose.
Furthermore, their abilities complement each other perfectly, and they are all highly suited for thievery.
"So, that tall, muscular guy probably didn't come, and the Phantom Troupe should have more than seven people."
The Silent One thought silently, "And there's nothing about any tall, muscular figures hiding or lying in ambush around us."
"In other words, the other side didn't set any traps or backup plans; they just charged straight at us..."
"They came before they even had a full team. Looks like they're really confident in their abilities and think they can take us down."
While thinking this, the Silent One showed no sign of life.
Since the enemy so underestimates us and is so blindly confident in themselves...
For them, as enemies, this is a good thing!!
This will allow them to better seize opportunities and completely destroy the opponent!
In an instant, the Silent One in the dark corner activated its ability to perceive sound to its fullest extent.
And it was at this moment~~~
boom! ! !
The door to this dilapidated tavern was blasted open.
"We've come to collect your heads!!!"
Phinks' arrogant voice rang out: "I know you're here, get out here!!!"
They came here with absolutely no intention of hiding.
To deal with a group of thieves, ambushes and assassinations are their specialty; they are the real experts.
Starting with the other party's strengths would seem ridiculous.
It would be better to just attack their doorstep directly, launching a frontal assault and giving them no chance to maneuver.
But it's a pity...
"Um?!!"
Finks' eyes narrowed suddenly as he broke down the door.
Before him appeared a series of white mirrors shimmering with silver light.
"A world of mirrors?"
The trap that had been specifically set for them was now brazenly laid out before Phinks.
This also caused him to stop in his tracks, which he had originally intended to take.
"What? Didn't someone just say they were coming to take our heads?"
A flippant, mocking voice came from inside the mirror: "What? Is all you're good for is talking?!"
"You talk a good game, but you don't even have the guts to step into this place?!"
"Who exactly is the cowardly coward?"
Kakradi, from "Reverse Mirror," was there using reverse psychology.
This method is most effective for those enhancement-type ability users with large heads and thick necks.
Previously, quite a few tough guys, or those who were extremely confident in their abilities, had stepped into his [Mirror Parasite] domain.
And then... that was it.
If he can't win in his home turf and territory, then what's the point of designing a Nen ability?!
Well, on this point, a future chimeric ant leopard guido would have a lot to say.
The Nen ability he developed for himself ended up being his downfall.
However, it's clear that Kacradi with the [Reverse Mirror] ability wouldn't make such a basic mistake.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be a member of the "Kurd Bandits" group.
And Phinks, of course, knew about this.
Even as he was mocked to the point of bulging veins on his forehead, he remained firmly rooted to the spot.
"Great, I've remembered that voice."
Phinks's eyelids, devoid of eyebrows, bulged in and out: "After you've taken them all down."
"I will carefully and personally twist the head off this voice!!!"
"Hehehe~~~"
A disdainful sneer came from the mirror: "You spineless coward, spouting nonsense again."
However, no matter how much sarcasm and ridicule came from the mirror, it did not elicit any action from Finks and his men.
Only the increasingly calm and chilling look in their eyes revealed the true state of mind of Finks and his companions.
"Even with such anger inside, is it possible to remain calm?"
"This is not something an ordinary ability user could do."
"And~~~".

"Their emotions were all controlled remarkably well; it was an extreme level of calmness."
Even Vionilet, hiding in a dark corner, was somewhat surprised: "Not a single drop has seeped out."
"I was originally thinking of seeing if I could collect some of their emotional energy..."
