Chapter 159 - Nen
There was silence between Blaize and Kite. As Kite appeared stern and stoic, Blaize found it hard to have a conversation with him.
Even if he asks something, Kite's answers are very blunt to the point of appearing rude. But, Blaize knew it's how Kite is, so he didn't take it to heart.
"That Nen you used to save me is remarkable. Can you teach me?" Blaize asked.
"No. Only Hunters are allowed to learn and practice Nen." Kite refused.
Blaize chuckled as he knew Kite would definitely refuse. Even if the latter didn't teach him, he can learn on his own. The Nen he used to heal him has already stimulated the life force in his body.
He hadn't opened any Aura nodes, but he can feel them. Just a slight push, he can open some of them but he wasn't in a hurry. He first needs to recover.
He didn't feel any of the Aura nodes when he was in One Piece world but now he can. He doesn't know why and it didn't matter. He can find the answers slowly.
Blaize took a good look at Kite. He looked the same as shown in the anime with flowing white hair that reached his knees. He wore a light blue peaked cap, a long-sleeved white shirt, black trousers, and brown shoes.
Even though he couldn't see the Kite's Nen with his own eyes, he can feel its presence with his Observation Haki. It's quite strong.
Just as Blaize was feeling bored, Gon returned with food, water, and bandages. As Gon helped him to bandage his wounds, Blaize gulped all the foods in a minute. It left Gon and Kite speechless.
After eating the food, Blaize frowned as the energy contained in the food is very little. If he eats such foods, he needs at least twenty days to heal all the injuries and replenish some of his lost life force.
But in his current state, he can't do much. After one or two days, he will be able to suppress his severe injuries then he can hunt some animals or large fish in the lake or ocean.
Once Gon nursed his injuries, Blaize thanked him. "Thank you, Gon. Once I recover from my injuries, I will treat you to a meal as thanks.
"Really? Wonderful" Gon jumped around in glee.

Ten days have passed,
Aside from some broken bones and left eye, Blaize's injuries were mostly healed at least he can move around now. But, he's still weak as he had to use all the recovered energy to heal the wounds.
In another ten days, he will be back to his perfect shape.
Yesterday, he caught a large amount of fish from the lake by knocking them with his Conqueror's Haki. It's very embarrassing but he had no choice.
He had to do it to earn some money to buy food and clothes. Blaize stayed in the forest while Gon lingers here during the daytime to take care of the child foxbear aside from going home to sleep.
As for Kite, he left Whale Island after making sure Blaize is of no threat to Gon and others.
Blaize has no choice but to wait for another ten days till his injuries are entirely healed before he can venture out.

Another twenty days passed,
Morning,
After having a nice bath, Blaize came out of the lake and wore the clothes that he got stitched from the famous tailor of whale island; A black shirt, grey pants, and a white coat.
After wearing his shirt and pants, Blaize draped the coat over his shoulders like a cape, without wearing them entirely. Old habits die hard.
Appearance makes the man. Once dressed, he looked handsome with his height reaching 6'8" and he also cut his black hair to the normal length.
It's been a month since he came to the Hunter x Hunter world. His body is entirely healed including his left eye while he also replenished some of his lost life force.
Today, he plans on opening all his Aura nodes so that he can practice Nen.
During the one month, he didn't stay idle he meditated daily to feel the life force and aura nodes in his body. It wasn't that difficult as his physique is very strong and rich in life energy.
Feeding the child Foxbear some of the fishes he caught in the lake, Blaize sat on the ground and closed his eyes.
As Kite's Nen already triggered the cells in his body, Blaize used the life energy to open some of the aura nodes. As soon as he did, the life energy present in his body gushed forth like an open dam, startling him.
Wasting no time, he guided them in the direction of other Aura nodes. In five or so minutes, all the aura nodes in his body were completely opened.
When Blaize opened his eyes, he saw the life energy like a water vapor leaking from his body. But what he finds surprising is, the aura flowing from his body is somewhat excessive.
It's completely different from what happened to Gon and Kilua when Wing opened their aura nodes.
Blaize once again closed his eyes, guided the Nen to flow through and around his body stopping them from leaking out of his body. Since control of Nen is similar to Haki, he learned it quickly.
In fact, Blaize finds controlling Nen is far simple compared to Haki. He then began to try all the basic concepts of Nen or one can say basic manipulations of aura flow.
"First, Ten!" Blaize has already learned to keep his aura from leaking away from his body.
Ten means 'Envelop' or 'Shroud'. He got this covered as his aura is already flowing through and around the body rather than away from it.
It created a shroud around him that feels similar to standing in a viscous fluid. Ten is the most basic defense against emotional Nen attacks like bloodlust and against some limited physical attacks
Also, 'Ten' maintains youthful vigor and reduces one's aging since the energy powering the body no longer leaks away.
"Next, Zetsu!"
