Boom, boom, boom...
Each micro-missile, transformed from Number Two's ten fingers, exploded with terrifying force.
In an instant, Ethan was caught in the barrage of finger missiles, followed by huge water arrows and teleportation bombs. His entire body was engulfed by the onslaught of attacks.
It was like a grand firework display in the sky, with water arrows splattering, thick flames raging, and clouds of smoke billowing.
Chi chi chi…..
A dense, whistling sound cut through the air as a series of intertwined silk threads appeared.
Before the violent explosion could clear, these threads shot out like meteor showers, descending like open umbrellas to the ground in all directions.
"Birdcage!"
Though Ethan was swallowed by various attacks, he astonishingly survived and activated the "Birdcage" to trap and isolate the Meteor Chase Team.
"No, get out quickly!"
"To hell with you!"
"Does he really think this attack can trap us?"
As the threads fell in every direction, the quick-witted members of the Meteor Chase Team reacted instantly, recognizing the intent behind the move.
Some members quickly darted aside, aiming to escape the 'Birdcage' before it fully enclosed them.
However, others chose to attack the explosion in the air.
The woman in the felt hat, unlike the Meteor Chase Team members, was caught off guard.
In the ensuing chaos, although her protectors didn't forget her and attempted to pull her away from the 'Birdcage,' the panic caused her to lose grip on the compass.
Unnoticed, the compass needle shifted again, indicating the tracked position had moved from the sky to underground.
"Spiral Gun!"
While the 'Birdcage' descended from above, the ground wasn't safe either.
As the Meteor Chase Team member with the felt hat passed by, a high-speed spinning spiral gun, resembling a drill, erupted from the ground, aiming directly at his lower body.
"Damn it!"
This particular member, Number Seven, quickly sensed the anomaly below and dodged the ascending spiral gun.
In his haste, he inadvertently released his hold on the woman in the felt hat.
Given the spiral gun's sudden appearance and power, carrying her might have hindered his escape.
Even though the woman in the felt hat was crucial, Number Seven prioritized his own safety in the face of danger.
Shit!
While Number Seven dodged the initial spiral gun, another swiftly emerged, targeting the now-unprotected woman in the felt hat.
Blood sprayed and splattered.
She had no time to scream.
The spiral gun pierced her from below, and its terrifying rotation shredded her into pieces of flesh that scattered in the air.

"Not good!"
"Damn it!"
"Watch out for attacks from below!"
The sudden demise of the woman in the felt hat shocked Number Seven, who was supposed to protect her, and infuriated the other members of the Meteor Chase Team.
But the battle continued to evolve.
Nearby, a circular portal opened, and twin Gatling guns protruded, their barrels trained on the Meteor Chase Team.
...
Flames erupted as the Gatling guns unleashed a relentless metal storm of real Nen bullets at the team.
Behind the circular portal, Lisa, with sharp focus, launched the offensive against the Meteor Chase Team.
Despite their unrecovered physical and mental energy, the barrage of Nen bullets quickly drained their reserves.
However, Lisa's attack was effective.
The Nen level of the Meteor Chase Team members allowed them to withstand the real Nen bullets temporarily, but Lisa's relentless assault forced those trying to escape the 'Birdcage' to pause.
Chichichi....
Threads burrowed into the ground, and the 'Birdcage,' spanning two hundred meters, successfully ensnared the entire Meteor Chase Team.
Threads spun like drills, bursting from the ground.
Outside the 'Birdcage,' amidst a mass of emerging threads, a figure swiftly flew out—it was Ethan.
The 'Ethan' that had appeared in the sky earlier was merely a diversion, a 'Shadow Clone.'
Using the 'Shadow Clone' as bait, Ethan exploited the Meteor Chase Team's focus on it to employ Mia's Gate Fruit ability, relocating underground and deploying the 'Line Field' and 'Spiral Gun.'
Such tactics served dual purposes.
They aimed to trap the Meteor Chase Team within the 'Birdcage' and eliminate the woman in the felt hat, suspected of possessing tracking Nen.
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
Ethan emerged from the ground. Lisa ceased her Gatling fire and retracted the guns while Mia closed the air portal.
In the next moment, Ethan seamlessly launched his attack.
Gazing coldly at the Meteor Chase Team trapped in the 'Birdcage,' Ethan formed hand seals and unleashed a torrent of scorching flames.
Boom!!!
The flames expanded rapidly, transforming into a massive, blazing wave that surged into the 'Birdcage,' aiming to incinerate the Meteor Chase Team.
"The Waves are Huge!"
As the fiery wave engulfed the 'Birdcage,' Number Six advanced rather than retreating, directly confronting the oncoming flames.
Boom!!!
A surge of Nen energy erupted from Number Six, who, with sharp eyes and a powerful thrust of his palms, unleashed a massive, waterfall-like wave from his hands to counter the fiery onslaught.
