Chapter Summaries

After rewinding to a month earlier, Moro discovered the Annual Rings had recorded Chrollo’s displacement ability and let him teleport himself. He used his new strength to confront Phinks and Shizuku, killing Phinks instantly and leaving Shizuku terrified.

• Moro awakened behind the wheel after another Death Rewind and saw that the second Annual Ring’s energy was spent while the third had risen to 28%.
• Moro realized he had rewound to a month earlier and found that the Annual Rings had recorded Chrollo’s displacement ability, changing it into a teleportation power he could use himself.
• Moro tested the new ability, teleporting a hundred meters with a one-minute cooldown, then resumed pursuing Phinks and Shizuku with Kalluto and Kurapika.
• Moro and his companions confronted Phinks and Shizuku on a desolate road, and Phinks sensed danger as he prepared Ripper Cyclotron.
• Moro teleported beside Phinks and tore off his head, leaving Shizuku frozen in fear.

Moro killed Phinks and Shizuku using Flash Strike and his other abilities, then considered how to improve his ability system. He left the fight at Lv.68, still pursuing his goal of reaching level 70 by wiping out the Phantom Troupe.

• Moro exploited Phinks's brief distraction to tear off his head and crush it.
• Shizuku attacked Moro with Evil Eye, then fled after using a car and an explosion to try to stop him.
• Moro pursued Shizuku while counting down Flash Strike's cooldown and avoided the explosion unharmed.
• Moro predicted Shizuku would circle around a Flying Star Jump marker and used Flash Strike to cut her throat.
• Moro reflected on combining Flying Star Jump with Flash Strike and saw that killing Phinks and Shizuku had raised him to Lv.68.

After killing Phinks and Shizuku, Moro set out with Kurapika and Kalluto to eliminate the Phantom Troupe rather than wait for them to gather. He tracked Hisoka to the Troupe’s warehouse meeting and unleashed a barrage of Flying Stars, leaving the gathered members engulfed in explosions.

• Moro destroyed Shizuku’s corpse and told Kurapika that seven Troupe members remained, then set off with Kurapika and Kalluto to make the Troupe disappear.
• Kalluto sensed something strange about Moro and Kurapika but could not explain it, while Moro wondered what future Kalluto might have after their deaths.
• On August 20, Moro had Kalluto create a Paper Person of Life linked to Hisoka and began following Hisoka’s route from a distance.
• On August 22, Chrollo and other Troupe members gathered at a warehouse in Roundfruit, where Machi said Uvogin and Nobunaga would arrive later.
• Moro called Hisoka and asked how many there were, then told him to use Ken before hanging up.
• Hisoka used Ken, and countless Flying Stars pierced the warehouse roof and exploded among Chrollo and the gathered Troupe members.

Moro’s Flying Stars devastated the warehouse, injuring several Phantom Troupe members and revealing how much stronger he had become. As Moro and his allies confronted the survivors, Hisoka prepared to fight Chrollo first so he could eventually face both men.

• Moro warned Hisoka before unleashing Flying Stars that reduced the warehouse to ruins, while Chrollo and Machi defended themselves and Kortopi and Amanda were injured.
• Kortopi and Amanda emerged from the rubble as Moro, Kurapika, Kalluto, and Kanzai approached the warehouse; Moro noted that two Troupe members had yet to arrive.
• Kanzai was stunned by Moro’s destructive power and rapid growth, and Moro attributed his strength to special training.
• Chrollo recognized Moro and Kurapika as Feitan’s killers and realized Moro was likely responsible for the other Troupe members’ disappearances.
• Moro reminded Hisoka of their agreement and offered him the chance to fight, but Hisoka decided to take on Chrollo first.

The Troupe and their opponents chose separate matchups while Chrollo used a stolen ability to provide Kortopi with a doll for his powers. Before Kortopi could use it, Moro teleported to him and pierced his heart, leaving the battle circles stunned.

• Hisoka claimed Chrollo as his opponent, while Kanzai chose Machi, Amanda confronted Kalluto, and Kurapika targeted Pakunoda.
• Moro split his Flying Star barrage to scatter the Troupe, and Chrollo used Secret of the Dressing Table to create a doll for Kortopi.
• Hisoka grew angry when Chrollo focused on supporting his companions instead of fighting him directly.
• Kortopi began using God's Left Hand, Devil's Right Hand on the doll as Moro watched for an opening.
• Moro teleported to Kortopi and pierced his heart, then told Hisoka and Chrollo not to mind him and to carry on.

Moro killed Kortopi by exploiting outdated information about his abilities, then used his threat of intervention to keep Chrollo under pressure as Hisoka attacked him. Chrollo realized he was trapped between fighting and abandoning his companions.

• Moro used Flash Strike to kill Kortopi before Kortopi and Amanda could coordinate their abilities.
• Moro stood aside and pressured the Troupe while Hisoka attacked Chrollo at close range.
• Chrollo glanced toward Moro, giving Hisoka an opening to punch him and attach Bungee Gum.
• Hisoka dismissed Bungee Gum and turned his attention to Moro, realizing Moro's presence prevented Chrollo from fighting freely.
• Chrollo felt increasingly trapped and considered retreating, but doing so would mean abandoning his companions.

Chrollo used Putting Oneself in Another's Shoes to outmaneuver Hisoka and land a devastating blow, but Moro immediately struck Chrollo with the Sheath of Abyssal Containment. Chrollo survived the blast but fell with his head badly charred, leaving the battle's outcome uncertain.

• Moro watched as Kanzai, Kurapika, and Kalluto held advantages over their opponents in the surrounding battles.
• Hisoka launched a coordinated attack using concealed Bungee Gum, metal debris, and returning playing cards, but Chrollo anticipated his moves.
• Chrollo activated Putting Oneself in Another's Shoes to switch places with Hisoka and struck Hisoka's temple, fracturing his brow and sending him flying.
• Moro teleported beside Chrollo and fired a Nen-charged blast from the Sheath of Abyssal Containment.
• Chrollo reinforced his defenses but was blasted from the air and crashed to the ground, alive with his head badly charred.

Moro fought off Illumi’s attempt to protect Chrollo and killed Chrollo during the battle. With the assassination commission ended, Illumi hesitated over whether to keep fighting Moro.

• Moro prepared to finish Chrollo, but Illumi arrived and attacked him to stop the killing.
• Moro and Illumi exchanged close-range attacks, and Moro wounded Illumi while blocking his Head-pins and Flying Star.
• Moro fired Deceptive Flying Stars at Chrollo, who dodged one shot but lost his right hand when Moro slashed him.
• Illumi charged again, and Moro redirected a returning Flying Star into Chrollo, killing him in an explosion.
• Moro struck Illumi through the smoke; with Chrollo dead and the commission terminated, Illumi hesitated over whether to continue fighting.

Kurapika defeated Pakunoda and killed her after Chrollo’s death shifted the battle. Moro then exploited Illumi’s defenses and wounded him severely, leaving Illumi stunned by Moro’s newly revealed abilities.

• Pakunoda used Memory Bullets to boost her combat ability, but Kurapika’s chains continued to overwhelm her.
• Kurapika restrained Pakunoda with the Index Finger Binding Chain and drove it into her heart, killing her.
• Chrollo and Pakunoda’s deaths shook Machi and Amanda, worsening their positions in their fights.
• Illumi decided to stop attacking Moro, but Moro struck him with Flying Stars despite Illumi’s signal to withdraw.
• Moro used cement blocks and split Flying Stars to draw Illumi’s defenses away, then appeared before him and severed most of his right arm and his left hand.

Moro defeated Illumi, but Kalluto intervened and knocked Illumi unconscious, prompting Moro to spare him so he would not lose Kalluto’s friendship. After Kalluto asked to have Zilva take Illumi home, Moro joined the fight between Kanzai and Machi and killed Machi.

• Moro used his new abilities to overpower Illumi, who lost both arms and tried to escape with his needles.
• As Moro prepared to kill Illumi, Kalluto struck Illumi with Dance of the Serpent's Bite, knocking him unconscious and separating him from Moro.
• Kalluto treated Illumi’s bleeding while Kurapika and Moro watched, and Moro chose not to attack Illumi again.
• Moro told Kalluto that Illumi had accepted Chrollo’s contract to assassinate him, and Kalluto asked to contact the family so Zilva could take Illumi home.
• Moro gave Kalluto his phone, then teleported behind the struggling Machi and stabbed her through the heart.

After Moro killed Machi, he prepared to collect the Phantom Troupe’s bounties and watched over the injured survivors while waiting for Uvogin and Nobunaga. Kalluto refused to return home with Zilva, who arrived at the hospital and suspected Moro was responsible for Illumi’s injuries.

• Moro killed Machi but remained at level 69, and he told Kanzai they would split the Troupe’s bounties.
• Moro and Kurapika gathered the bodies without claiming the bounties, then Moro took the unconscious Hisoka to the hospital.
• Kalluto prepared Paper Persons of Life to track Uvogin and Nobunaga, and he told Moro he would not return home with Zilva.
• Zilva arrived with Amane and Gotoh, and Kalluto led them to Illumi in the intensive care unit.
• Zilva questioned Kalluto’s claim that he had carelessly injured Illumi and suspected Moro was responsible.

Moro and Kurapika waited near the warehouse ruins to ambush Uvogin and Nobunaga, while Kalluto joined them after tracking the pair’s approach. Kurapika engaged Uvogin as Moro used Flash Strike to kill Nobunaga, leaving Uvogin furious and facing Moro.

• Zilva treated Illumi’s injuries, and Kalluto refused to return home with her, saying he would go back on his own.
• Hisoka woke up in the hospital and distracted himself by counting leaves while waiting to recover enough for a future battle.
• Moro, Kurapika, and Kanzai waited near the warehouse ruins, and Kalluto called Moro when the Paper Person of Life sensed Uvogin and Nobunaga drawing closer.
• Kurapika confronted Uvogin and Nobunaga at the ruins, displaying his chains and then blocking Uvogin’s punch.
• Moro struck Nobunaga with Flash Strike while Nobunaga attacked Kurapika, severing his arm and cutting him in half.
• Uvogin roared in anger at Nobunaga’s death, and Moro calmly called him a beast.

Moro and Kurapika killed Uvogin, completing the Phantom Troupe’s destruction, but Chrollo’s post-death Nen emerged and offered Moro his ability, Master of Stealth. Moro rejected Chrollo’s demand that he inherit the Troupe’s ideals and protect his homeland through infamy.

• Moro used Flash Strike to kill Nobunaga, then evaded Uvogin’s attacks and reached level 70.
• Kurapika used the Index Finger Binding Chain to place Uvogin in Zetsu while Moro blocked his Super Destruction Fist, destroyed his fist, and killed him.
• Kurapika withdrew the chain and felt peaceful after avenging his people, while Moro remained at level 70 after gaining experience.
• Chrollo’s post-death Nen emerged from the bloodstain where he had died, and Moro intercepted it before it could fly away.
• Chrollo’s lingering consciousness offered Moro Master of Stealth if he inherited the Troupe’s ideals and evil, but Moro refused.

Moro absorbed Chrollo’s post-death Nen and resolved to build up the Annual Rings’ energy before dealing with Illumi, while preparing for the Yorknew City auction. As the group waited for the bounty agency, Moro insisted on sending Kalluto home, but Kalluto resisted and tried to stop Kanzai from lending Moro money.

• Moro rejected Chrollo’s request to inherit the Phantom Troupe’s will and protect Meteor City, then absorbed his post-death Nen, raising the third ring’s energy from 28% to 42%.
• Moro considered the risks of killing Illumi and decided to prioritize filling the third ring before the upcoming Yorknew City auction.
• Kanzai contacted the bounty agency, and Moro gathered the Troupe members’ corpses for inspection while the group waited for the agency staff.
• Zilva called Kalluto to say she was taking the gravely injured Illumi back to Mount Pinyin and warned him to consider Kikyo’s reaction.
• Moro told Kalluto he would take him home soon, but Kalluto objected and tried to prevent Kanzai from lending Moro the money he needed.

After the Phantom Troupe’s defeat, Moro left for Mount Pinyin with Kurapika and Kalluto, while Kanzai began securing Kurapika’s credit toward a One-Star title. At Mount Pinyin, Killua reunited with them and used his mother’s affection for him to arrange a stay in town with Kalluto and Moro.

• The bounty agency paid out the Phantom Troupe bounty, and Kanzai transferred it to Moro while telling Kurapika that his achievement could earn him a One-Star title.
• Moro visited Hisoka in the hospital and warned him that he could no longer catch up before leaving for Mount Pinyin with Kurapika and Kalluto.
• Kanzai stayed behind to prepare the Phantom Troupe campaign report and planned to ask a fellow Zodiac to help put Kurapika’s One-Star candidacy on the agenda.
• Three days later, Amane met Moro, Kurapika, and Kalluto at the Mount Pinyin airport, but Kalluto resisted returning home because he wanted more time with Moro.
• Killua arrived at the airport, and after seeing Kalluto’s reluctance, arranged with Kikyo for himself and Kalluto to stay in town by saying he wanted to buy Kikyo a gift.

Moro spent a joyful day exploring Zaomu Town with Killua, Kalluto, and Kurapika, then demonstrated his strength by opening all seven Testing Gates at the Zoldyck estate. The group was left stunned as a giant Chimera descended from the sky and terrified Miké.

• Killua enthusiastically guided Kalluto, Moro, and Kurapika around Zaomu Town, where Moro shared nut pancakes with Kurapika.
• Killua and Kalluto pranked Kurapika with live insect skewers, then had the insects grilled and ate them while Kurapika refused.
• Killua repeatedly lost at the candy shop raffle, while Moro and Kalluto won first prizes and Kurapika won the grand-prize skateboard.
• Moro declined Killua's invitation to dinner and accompanied Killua and Kalluto back to the Testing Gate, where he opened all seven gates at once.
• Miké cowered as a gigantic Chimera descended from the sky, and Moro recognized the beast.

Moro reunited with Menchi and Chimera, then traveled with Menchi and Kurapika to Yorknew for the September 1 auction. On the way, Moro began advertising his Nen-removal services to raise money, while Zalzala and Ging took notice of him from afar and online.

• Chimera arrived at Mount Pinyin, frightened Mike into submission, and left with Moro, Menchi, and Kurapika while Kalluto and Killua stayed behind.
• Killua asked when Moro would return, and Kalluto explained that Moro was helping Kurapika recover his clan’s eyes.
• On September 1, Chimera carried Moro, Menchi, and Kurapika to the Gode Desert outside Yorknew, where they headed toward the city with just over 1.4 billion Jenny between them.
• Moro asked Argo to publicize his Nen-removal services and told Menchi to post the offer on the Hunter Website when they reached Yorknew.
• Zalzala spotted Moro from a car, while Ging found the online information about removing post-death Nen and became intrigued.

Ging investigated a mysterious Nen remover named Mo and decided to meet them, hoping they could help with dangerous post-death Nen in ruins. On the road to the Nenpisu Auction, Moro and his companions accepted a ride from Batola’s convoy, and the catalog revealed two pairs of Scarlet Eyes among the auction lots.

• Ging traced Mo’s commission notice, judged it credible, and decided to investigate the Nen remover in person.
• Ging considered how a skilled Nen remover could help preserve ruins sealed by powerful post-death Nen.
• Zalzala spotted Moro on the expressway and offered him and his companions a ride on Batola’s behalf.
• Moro accepted the ride and asked to see the Nenpisu Auction catalog.
• Moro found the Scarlet Eyes listed in the catalog, and Kurapika reacted as the chains around his finger rattled.
• Moro and Kurapika saw that the auction would offer two pairs of Scarlet Eyes.

Moro and Kurapika learned that two pairs of Scarlet Eyes would be auctioned in Yorknew City, but they lacked the funds to secure them. Meanwhile, Molena received an order from Kakin’s Fourth Prince to obtain the Scarlet Eyes and Nosa the Serial Killer’s remains.

• Moro saw that the auction offered two pairs of Scarlet Eyes, while Kurapika struggled to contain his anger at the catalog’s account of the Kurta Clan’s extermination.
• Moro told Kurapika they needed at least five billion before the auction on the evening of the fifth, and dismissed Kurapika’s plan to borrow against his Hunter License.
• Moro reflected that he intended to help Kurapika recover the Scarlet Eyes while letting him grow through the struggle, and identified Tserriednich as a greater danger than the auction’s other buyers.
• Molena received a call from Kakin’s Fourth Prince, who ordered her to acquire Nosa the Serial Killer’s half-body remains and two pairs of Scarlet Eyes for the tenth.

Molena waited to gain Tserriednich’s favor so she could use the succession ceremony to advance her plan to destroy the world. In Yorknew City, Moro and his companions gathered Nen-bearing antiques to raise money for the Scarlet Eyes, while an unidentified man began watching Kurapika.

• Molena planned to become head of the Ai Family and order the succession participants to kill one another as part of her selection.
• Batola asked Moro to contact him if he changed his mind about clearing Greed Island, then left for the city center.
