Biscuit's spontaneous explanation had indeed sparked thoughts in Law that he had never considered before.
He had previously felt his area-of-effect destructive power was too weak, so he spent several years creating the Ivory-White General technique, but he had never considered the aspect of clones.
As Biscuit said, the tactical value of remote projection for clones should not be underestimated.
With the coordination of multiple Nen Types, a single clone could indeed accomplish many things, and could even execute a devastating self-destruction tactic.
Law had the idea but felt it wasn't necessary to expend more energy developing this technique, so he quickly dismissed the thought.
The effects of Cookie's massage were immediate. Kurapika quickly realized the importance of this ability, especially how unparalleled its assistance was for him.
'In the world of Nen Abilities, there was actually such a convenient power.'
'This way, I could free up a lot of time for training every day.'
Thinking this, Kurapika silently felt grateful to Law.
Whether it was the specially prepared medicinal cuisine or bringing Biscuit here specifically, it all showed Law's thorough consideration and effort.
'For the first time in many years, someone had been so good to me.'
Kurapika slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep amidst his wandering thoughts.
After finishing Kurapika's massage, Cookie dissolved into Nen and returned to Biscuit.
In the following days, with Cookie's assistance, Kurapika's efficiency greatly improved.
Half a month later, Kurapika finally succeeded in conjuring chains. In his initial concept, he wanted each finger to coordinate with the chains to derive different types of abilities.
The reason for this idea was mainly that he had planned from the start to operate alone. Therefore, when facing multiple opponents alone, he would need at least two different types of versatile abilities.
It had to be said that Kurapika was quite ambitious. Even with strict limitations, he couldn't raise the upper limit that high, so Kurapika gradually retreated and compromised during the attempt.
Ten fingers wouldn't work, so five then.
If he couldn't achieve versatile abilities, then he would weaken the desired effects of the abilities.
It was like adjusting the frequency on a radio, turning the dial back and forth to find the most suitable upper limit.
Kurapika's resolve was firm… even if it could be called extremely greedy, he was determined to establish five different special abilities. That was his foundation for matching the Phantom Troupe.
However, the result of this greed was that the path ahead was extremely difficult.
Despite this, Kurapika pressed forward relentlessly and successfully established two special abilities: Holy Chain and Chain Jail.
"Enhancement-type healing and Manipulation-type restraint?" Law rubbed his chin.
Law had long known about the two abilities Kurapika created first, but only when he participated in the process did he truly understand Kurapika's original intention for creating these two abilities first.
Enhancement-type healing could improve the margin for error, which was especially important in battles where one was outnumbered.
Manipulation-type restraint, on the other hand, offered significant advantages in one-on-one combat.
"The fingers merge with the chains. One finger equals one chain, each chain corresponding to one ability. Interesting."
Biscuit looked at the chains hanging from Kurapika's palm. On each of his fingers was an iron ring connected to a chain.
Although she was amazed by Kurapika's imagination and creativity, the inherent flaws were too obvious. As the saying goes, 'grasp all, lose all'… that described Kurapika perfectly.
If the created abilities all corresponded to Conjuration, that would be one thing, as he could achieve 100% effectiveness. But the first two abilities he created were Enhancement and Manipulation respectively.
Biscuit saw this, but she didn't point it out immediately, as it would discourage Kurapika and affect his focus.
"Test the healing and restraining effects. First, break your left arm," Law said, looking at the metallic accessories dangling below Kurapika's palm.
The Holy Chain took the form of a cross, while Chain Jail was a plain chain, which somewhat aligned with the characteristics of chains.
Hearing Law's suggestion, Kurapika paused, then raised his right hand, wrapped it in Nen, and struck his left arm.
With a crisp cracking sound, his left arm fractured.
"Holy Chain!"
Kurapika flicked his wrist, wrapping the chain connected to the cross around his left arm, continuously outputting Nen.
One minute, two minutes... up to five minutes, and the simple fracture was finally healed.
Seeing this result, although Kurapika's facial reaction was calm, he was extremely disappointed inside.
The time required for healing was far too long. In the rapidly changing context of battle, its effectiveness was practically zero.
This result was not at all surprising to Law and Biscuit.
"As a Conjurer, you can only achieve 60% effectiveness in Enhancement-type abilities. Due to the difference in Nen Types, even a 1% gap can result in a significant deviation in effect," Law explained.
Kurapika fell silent upon hearing this. He was well aware of this fact.
"Next, test the restraining power," Law signaled Kurapika to bind him with the Chain Jail.
"Okay."
Kurapika nodded, swung his arm, and the Chain Jail on his middle finger shot out like a snake, instantly wrapping around Law seven or eight times.
"Manipulation-type effect, also 60%."
As he spoke, Law exerted a slight force and easily shattered Kurapika's restraint.
Kurapika stared blankly at the shattered chains, 'The abilities I had painstakingly created were actually so fragile and vulnerable? Was this the price for aiming too high?'
Just moments before, Kurapika had seen clearly: he had used his full strength, but Law had only used half of his Manifested Aura to easily shatter the chains.
If Law were also a Conjurer, their ability effects should be equivalent, as there shouldn't be such an obvious gap unless Law was an Enhancer.
Beside them, Biscuit looked at the stunned Kurapika, then at Law's calm expression, thinking to herself, 'He really showed no mercy.'
"Master, are you an Enhancer?" Kurapika suppressed the turmoil in his heart.
"No."
Law watched as the fallen chain remnants dissolved into points of Nen light and disappeared, then raised his head to look at Kurapika and said calmly, "I am an All-Rounder. I can achieve 100% effectiveness in every Nen Type."
"All-Rounder?"
Kurapika showed an expression of disbelief.
Law's answer overturned his previous understanding of Nen Abilities… it was practically unbelievable.
Seeing Kurapika's reaction, Biscuit could understand. When she first learned about it, she was also greatly shocked.
"But, you clearly told me before..." Kurapika, having barely calmed his shocked emotions, looked hesitant.
Law interrupted him directly, "Out of millions of people, there's always one special existence. Just understand it that way."
Kurapika was immediately left speechless. Then, he heard Law's next words, and his thoughts began to churn again.
"You, possessing the bloodline of the Kurta Clan, are also special."
"Listen carefully. If an ordinary person had your idea of possessing versatile abilities, it would be a misguided path. But you are not ordinary, so your thinking is not wrong."
"Next, I will explain the principles of Vows and Limitations to you."
Law looked at the stunned Kurapika. He was well aware of the four chain abilities Kurapika would develop in the future.
Aside from the Chain Jail and the Holy Chain, it was necessary to change the other two chain abilities. And for the final chain's unknown ability, it could be created specifically to target the Troupe.
