"These people seem to be able to pinpoint our location!"
"Is that how they found us? Is the woman pointing at us using a tracking Nen?"
Lisa and Mia exchanged surprised glances as they watched the Meteor Chase Team in the distance.
Their sudden halt was prompted by the unusual behavior of the Meteor Chase Team.
Particularly, the woman in the felt hat who directly indicated their position, signaling to Ethan and his companions that they had been identified.
"Leaving isn't as straightforward as I thought," Ethan mused, his gaze fixed on the woman in the felt hat.
Although they hadn't remained hidden in Mia's Gate Fruit alternate space, they had been concealed in a space tens of meters underground.
Their arrival here was from a completely different dimension, making it unlikely anyone could trace their path.
As Mia suspected, the actions of the woman in the felt hat led Ethan to surmise that she might possess tracking or other Nen abilities capable of locating them.
Their movement and subsequent halt revealed crucial information.
For instance, movement.
Space-type Nen that allows concealment is rare but not unheard of.
For example, in the later Chimera Ant arc, Nobu's "fourth-dimensional apartment" exemplifies such Nen.
However, spatial Nen like the "fourth-dimensional apartment" is a fixed-location space.
In contrast, a Nen space allowing mobility is clearly superior and more challenging to counter.
And the halt.
Ethan and his team paused upon observing the Meteor Chase Team's unusual activity, leading some in the team to suspect that Ethan and his companions could see the outside world from within their "Nen Space."
Of course, this remained speculative and unconfirmed.
Thus, those in the Meteor Chase Team who noticed this did not act hastily.
Much like Antonio, who remained vigilant and focused sharply on the direction the felt-hatted woman indicated.
"Be alert; they might have noticed us!"
"Understood. Once they emerge, they won't stand a chance."
"Stay guarded. Keep tracking their location, and if anything changes, alert us immediately."
With sharp eyes, the Meteor Chase Team members became increasingly vigilant, forming a protective circle around the woman in the felt hat.
The entire Meteor Chase Team was on high alert.
They aimed to guard against potential attacks from Ethan and protect the woman in the felt hat.
After all, their ability to track Ethan's location was thanks to her Nen.
Should anything happen to her, they'd lose track of Ethan and his companions.
"Let's take turns using 'En,' starting with me!"
The one speaking was Number Five.
He was a robust man with a rugged appearance and metal arm guards.

Contrary to his tough exterior, Number Five was cautious and attentive, suggesting the use of "En" as a precautionary measure.
And he promptly acted on it.
Boom!!!
A surge of Nen erupted from his Aura Nodes, forming a transparent sphere that extended in all directions.
This advanced Nen application, called 'En,' was executed by Number Five with a thirty-meter radius.
Yet, even with this range, Number Five appeared relaxed, indicating it wasn't his limit.
The other Meteor Chase Team members did not object to using 'En' as a warning method.
Being part of the elite, they naturally mastered 'En.'
Furthermore, with their Nen reserves, they could take turns without exhausting themselves.
The thirty-meter 'En' sphere enveloped the entire Meteor Chase Team.
In this perceptive state, any movement or sudden appearance would be immediately detected by Number Five.
"It's moving again, rapidly! They're on the move!"
Moments after Number Five activated 'En,' the woman in the felt hat stared at her compass and exclaimed.
Her compass needle spun erratically, sometimes left, sometimes right, too quickly for her to articulate each shift.
This erratic movement not only left her sweating but also heightened the Meteor Chase Team's vigilance, causing them to scan their surroundings.
"Stop it, it's up there!"
Suddenly, the compass needle stabilized, and the woman pointed to the sky, shouting.
Swish swish swish....
As soon as the Meteor Chase Team heard her, they looked up.
The air door opened and closed, and in a flash, energy streaked out.
The compass' accuracy was undeniable, and the figure that appeared above the Meteor Chase Team was indeed Ethan.
"Attack!"
"Kill him!"
The Meteor Chase Team's response was swift.
In an instant, as Ethan emerged from the Gate Fruit's alternate space, lethal intent surged, and attacks erupted from below.
For instance, Number Two.
An expressionless man, upon seeing Ethan, raised his hands without hesitation. His fingers detached, flying out like mini-missiles with explosive force.
Then there were Numbers Six and Nine.
Both men, Number Six unleashed a torrent of Nen-formed water, propelling a massive water arrow.
Number Nine, similar to Number Two, attacked with his fingers, not with missiles but with a barrage of Nen bullets.
