How to become a full-time hunter

Chapter 353 Earthly Branch Meeting

The earthly branch meeting was held in the hunter conference room.

Because it is far away from the human world, the orders of the new president and the hunter committee cannot be conveyed to the ship. Therefore, the earthly branch meeting became the highest decision-making body for hunters on board.

Not all the Earthly Branches were on board, there were five members who did not set foot on the ocean-going ship, such as Leorio, etc... So, there were only seven Earthly Branches present at the meeting!

"Squeak!"

Kurapika opened the door to the conference room and found that he was the last person to arrive in the conference room. Everyone else was already seated.

"Ahem, since everyone is here, let's get started." Seeing Kurapika come in, Chou Niu said slowly and nodded slightly to Kurapika.

Chou Niu has a gentle personality, is thoughtful, and handles all aspects of affairs. Hunters from any faction have confidence in him. In the absence of the president, he usually presides over meetings.

As soon as Kurapika took his seat, a discordant voice sounded from around him.

"Hmph, a baby with no hair all the way dares to show off! Doesn't he take us seniors seriously?"

The one who spoke had a golden hoop on his head, a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, like a monkey spirit. He is the monkey among the twelve earthly branches!

"Crack!"

Shen Hou's words aroused the approval of others, and someone even slapped his palm on the conference table and shouted angrily: "That's right! What kind of place is this! A mere newcomer, still wants to establish his authority with us?!"

Kurapika looked over and saw the person slamming the table. He has sharp teeth, wears striped clothing that looks like a baseball uniform, and looks very irritable.

He is the Yin Tiger among the twelve earthly branches, with a violent temper and a naughty character.

"Don't get excited, everyone, don't get excited."

Chou Niu hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Although little brother Zi Shu is young, he is very capable. After all, he captured the brigade with his own hands. It took some effort. It is understandable that he came a little late."

"Hmph, you still need to rest after dealing with rubbish like the brigade? How disappointing."

Yin Hu said disdainfully. Although he said so, the anger on his face dissipated a lot.

"I apologize for being late."

Kurapika bowed and apologized to all the Earthly Branches.

In fact, Kurapika is an extremely punctual person and it is almost impossible to be late. However, today he personally defeated Chrollo and arrested everyone in the brigade, which gave him a feeling of revenge.

The strings that had been tense in my heart suddenly relaxed. This relaxation caused a slight problem with Kurapika's biological clock, causing him to sleep an extra two minutes, resulting in him being late.

"Okay, let's have a formal meeting!"

Seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down, Chou Niu immediately announced the start of the meeting, "The first topic of this meeting: How to deal with the brigade!"

"Although we arrested the Phantom Troupe this time, they are currently far away from human society. What suggestions do you have for their trial?"

"Chen Long, you are the prosecutor, please speak first." Chou Niu pointed at a burly old man dressed in red.

Chen Long is the hunter's internal prosecutor and military intelligence analyst. Whether in terms of reputation or strength, he is the man closest to Nitro.

If he intends to participate in the election seriously, maybe he can become the new president! However, Chen Long was a staunch conservative. He valued the stability and steady development of the association and thought he was not suitable to be the president, so he gave up participating in the election.

"Well, how to deal with the brigade is a problem."

Chenlong coughed lightly and said in a measured tone: "The Hunter Association has always respected human rights. If there is no public trial, the death penalty will be imposed on the brigade, which will have a serious impact on the association's reputation."

"I suggest that after returning, the brigade be handed over to the state for a public trial. In this way, no matter what the final result is, it will not have an impact on the reputation of the association."

Chen Long's words actually caused others to nod.

Kurapika couldn't help but said: "The brigade is a level A wanted criminal and should be executed directly! Killing such people is really good for the association!"

Chenlong glanced at Kurapika, his expression as usual, and he continued: "I understand your thinking. Extremely evil people should be executed. Maybe many people are looking forward to them receiving the death penalty."

"Because of this, the association must be even more cautious!"

"Besides, if there is a public trial, more people will see the news of their execution. Isn't this better? If they are executed now, not many people will know that the brigade should die in full view of the public!"

Kurapika didn't know how to refute for a moment. After a while, he whispered: "Haven't you ever killed anyone on the spot? Everyone here has blood on their hands, right? Then why can't you kill them directly? Where’s the brigade?”

"Presumptuous! Who are you talking to!"

"Zi Shu, you are also a member of the Earthly Branches!"

"Huh, shameless kid, talking nonsense!"

Kurapika's words offended almost everyone, and several people immediately stood up and slapped the table, especially Tora. If the people around him hadn't stopped him, he would have punched Kurapika in the face!

"Quiet!"

Chen Long did not show any dissatisfaction, but instead stopped everyone's noise. He looked at Kurapika calmly and said slowly: "Zizhu, do you know what you are talking about?"

"This is why I don't want young people to enter management. You are still young, so your ideas are too extreme. If you have life experience, you may understand."

As he spoke, Chen Long sighed softly, "Every hunter's hands are stained with blood to some extent. I won't deny it, because it is inevitable."

"There are some extremely vicious criminals who will not stop committing evil until the last second of their lives. However, we kill them to arrest them, not to arrest them for the sake of killing them! Do you understand?"

"The prisoners have surrendered and they have no ability to resist. Whether voluntarily or forced, since they can no longer threaten us, we cannot kill the prisoners at will!"

"Remember, robbing other people's lives is a cruel thing. What hunters need to do is arrest, not plunder."

"Whether it's for ruins or people."

After Chenlong said this, he looked at Kurapika seriously, "So, do you understand now?"

"I don't understand, I want them dead!"

Kurapika gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.

"Now that the procedures have been formulated, we must strictly follow them, otherwise the procedures will lose their meaning! In short, I will never agree to execute the brigade without trial!"

Seeing that Kurapika was stubborn, Chenlong's tone became forceful.

"If the hunters don't follow the procedures, it will be the beginning of chaos! What is the difference between such an association and a terrorist organization! As long as I am alive, I will never allow such a thing to happen!"

The atmosphere in the conference room instantly became tense, and it seemed that a fight would break out in the next moment!
