Time flies.
But for some examinees, it felt agonizingly slow.
Kaizen had been observing one such person—Siper.
Her target was Gittarackur—Illumi, to be exact.
But Illumi had vanished.
Buried himself underground without a trace.
No movement. No aura. No way for Siper to ...

Killua looked at Kaizen.
"You're the strongest one here. You've seen Hisoka fight before, right? Do you think we stand a chance against him?"
After his last talk with Kaizen, Killua had pegged him as someone from a professional assassin background—definitely affiliated with the Zoldyck family. And more important...

Kaizen walked straight over to Ponzu and took the seat beside her.
They were barely a meter apart.
This made Ponzu tense up even more.
"You're targeting me?" Kaizen asked calmly.
"N-No... I'm not," Ponzu stammered, her voice shaky.
Kaizen glanced at Ponzu. "From where I'm sitting, that seems to b...

The Kakin Empire and their own Thousand Ears Society? Or maybe another assassin family?
In other words—was there anyone in the world who could take over Netero's business?
The Zoldycks had a long-standing connection with Netero, and presumably, they weren't interested in stepping in.
As for the others...

Fortunately, both parties showed some restraint... well, mostly thanks to Ronnel's strong intervention.

The first voice was Ginta's, full of hope and surprise. The second was Kanzai's, a violent curse.
Ginta was a rare innocent among the Zodiacs. His nature made him quick to trust others, though not without reason—naïve, perhaps, but far from stupid.
Even Hisoka had judged his overall strength to be superior to K...

But everyone soon realized something.

Kurapika hesitated, uncertainty clear in his voice.
Hisoka is far stronger than me...
And more than that, there was something deeply unsettling about him.
They had crossed paths. The power Hisoka displayed left Kurapika feeling utterly powerless.
