Chapter Summaries

Moro and his teammates faced Razor’s powerful serves, which injured Zalzala and Dobru and forced both of them out of the match. Moro then used a carefully planned throw to eliminate Nen Beasts No. 3 and No. 4, leaving Razor impressed and Gon and Killua encouraged.

• Razor’s serve knocked Zalzala out of the match and struck Dobru unconscious, but Moro intercepted the returning ball before it reached Razor’s team.
• The referee ruled that Zalzala had to leave the court and offered a choice for Dobru; Moro chose immediate treatment, which ended Dobru’s eligibility to compete.
• After waiting for Flash Strike’s cooldown, Moro told Gon and Killua to watch as he compressed his aura around the ball and threw it at Razor.
• Razor deflected Moro’s throw and sent it upward, while Nen Beasts No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5 moved to secure the ball and block Hisoka’s Bungee Gum.
• Moro’s Deceptive Flying Stars redirected the ball back across the court, knocking aside Nen Beasts No. 3 and No. 4 before Moro caught it.
• The referee declared Razor and Nen Beasts No. 3 and No. 4 out, while Razor realized Moro had anticipated his response.

Moro’s team forced Razor to spend his revival chance, but Razor anticipated Goreinu’s Black Gorilla switch and knocked Goreinu out. Razor then unleashed a powerful spike that Gon softened and Hisoka caught, leaving Gon with possession and ready to serve.

• Razor recalled most of his Nen Beasts to strengthen himself, while Killua distracted him with questions about the rules.

• Razor launched a powerful spike at Gon; Gon weakened it with his crossed hands, and Hisoka caught the ball with his rubberized body and sticky aura.
• Moro told Hisoka to give the ball to Gon, who agreed to serve while Killua watched Moro expectantly.

Gon served with enough power to force Razor to use Nen Beasts No. 6 and No. 7 to stop himself from being pushed out of bounds. Razor then aimed a powerful spike at Moro, who neutralized it with a precise Nen technique and caught the returning ball; Killua prepared to serve as Moro told Razor he had no chance of winning.

• Gon focused his Nen into a serve, and Razor caught the ball but needed Nen Beasts No. 6 and No. 7 to brace him against its impact.
• Razor spiked the ball toward Moro, who used a projected Nen mass and a precise technique to cancel most of its power and make it fly back into his hand.
• Razor and Hisoka recognized the finesse of Moro's Nen technique, while Gon, Killua, and Zalzala watched in astonishment.
• Moro gave the volleyball to Killua and encouraged him to think about how Moro had caught Razor's serve.
• Razor called Moro a monster and warned him not to overplay his hand; Moro replied that Razor had no chance of winning, and Razor eagerly accepted the challenge.

Killua used Godspeed to electrify a serve and nearly defeated Razor, but Razor’s Nen Beast saved the ball and he shifted to wearing Hisoka down. Moro then used a coin marked with divine script to redirect a powered-up Deceptive Flying Stars serve, blasting Razor out of the court and ending the match.

• Killua moved close to the center line and used Godspeed to electrify the ball, paralyzing Razor when he caught it.
• Nen Beast No. 5 caught the falling ball before it hit the floor, and Razor chose to target Hisoka in a war of attrition.
• Hisoka repeatedly caught Razor’s spikes, but Moro took the ball from him and prepared to end the match.
• Moro charged the ball with aura and used a rune-marked coin to redirect its doubled power toward Razor.
• The serve destroyed Nen Beasts No. 6 and No. 7, sent Razor through the arena wall, and ended the match.

After Moro helped Gon’s team defeat Razor, he left Greed Island to explore while Gon and Killua prepared to finish the game. Hisoka pursued stronger opponents, and the chapter ended with Moro receiving Kurapika’s message that the Scarlet Eyes’ location had been confirmed.

• Moro’s powerful shot knocked Razor out of the match, and Razor accepted defeat and agreed to leave town.
• Razor offered Gon answers about Ging, while Moro told Killua he was leaving and took movement cards from Zalzala.

• Hisoka hunted assassins for stronger battles, then faced an attack from Zilva, who judged his strength comparable to Illumi’s.
• Moro killed attackers who had followed him into an alley and received Kurapika’s message confirming the Scarlet Eyes’ location.

Moro and Kurapika infiltrated Tserriednich's estate to retrieve the Scarlet Eyes, but Kurapika found Pairo's preserved head among the exhibits and lost his composure. Tserriednich received an alarm and set events in motion, while Moro's real concern remained Beyond, the hidden threat in Kakin.

• Moro met Molena and Kurapika in Kakin, agreed to raid Tserriednich's estate on Saturday night, and placed a mark on Molena to monitor her.
• Moro and Kurapika disguised themselves and waited until Tserriednich left for the Sanjin Hotel before infiltrating his estate.
• Moro and Kurapika knocked out guards and forced open the entrance to the underground hidden room, triggering an alarm that reached Tserriednich.
• Kurapika found the Scarlet Eyes and Pairo's preserved head in the collection room, and his fury overwhelmed him.
• Tserriednich boarded a helicopter after receiving an urgent order, while Molena concealed her killing intent; Moro's greatest concern was Beyond.

Moro and Kurapika stole the last of the Scarlet Eyes from Tserriednich’s estate and escaped, while Tserriednich launched a pursuit with Dog Knight. Molena began her plan to spread an escalating contagion, and Shawa sensed that the flower seed on the Fourth Prince had been triggered.

• Kurapika calmed himself, took Pairo’s head and the Scarlet Eyes, while Moro gathered Nen-infused collectibles and valuables to disguise the robbery.

• Shawa sensed that the flower seed on the Fourth Prince had been triggered, and Beyond reacted to her warning.

Beyond’s plans for Kakin and the Succession War were disrupted when Tserriednich suffered a fatal injury, prompting Beyond to investigate and accelerate his preparations. After killing A Quan and capturing Molena, Beyond left her alive in a nutrient tank to be eaten by an ant creature.

• Beyond’s decades-long scheme involved using his descendants as curse-killing weapons for Kakin’s princes, while he waited for the Succession War and sought a way back to the Dark Continent.
• Shawa’s ability activated when Tserriednich was fatally injured, and Beyond ordered Mario to treat Shawa before traveling with Alita to the Event Coordinate.

• Beyond returned carrying Dog Knight’s head and confronted Molena, while Alita arrived and revealed her powerful Aura.
• Beyond wounded Molena with his Aura, and Alita used her Manipulator ability to extract information from her.
• Molena later awoke in a nutrient tank and realized an ant creature with a humanlike head was chewing on her mutilated body.

Molena died after the Ant Queen devoured her, while Moro and Kurapika realized her death might have exposed their connection to her and fled toward Chimera. Beyond’s team located the two men and discovered they were heading toward an immense, unfamiliar presence.

• Molena recalled the abuse and exploitation that shaped her life before the Ant Queen devoured her in the laboratory.
• Beyond’s companions discussed the Ant Queen’s recovery and how Nen abilities had enabled them to manipulate events and conceal their plan.

• Alita used her ability to locate two moving human signals and found that they were heading toward an extraordinarily dark nonhuman presence.
• Beyond told Alita to share the location with Shawa so she could confirm the nearest coordinates.

Beyond and Alita intercepted Moro and Kurapika and demanded that they submit to memory alteration, forcing Moro to choose between resisting and exposing his secrets. Moro launched a desperate counterattack to help Kurapika escape, but Beyond and Alita were swallowed by explosions as the chapter ended.

• Beyond and Alita used Shawa's Flower Ferry to reach the plain and intercepted Moro and Kurapika with Alita's cannon.
• Beyond offered to spare them if they closed their aura nodes and cooperated with memory alteration, while Moro secretly feared it would expose his identity and abilities.
• Moro pretended to agree, then used Flying Star Jump beneath Beyond and summoned Chimera with a Nen Bullet.
• Moro grabbed Kurapika, hurled him toward Chimera, and sent star-marked coins that split the Flying Stars into streams aimed at Beyond and Alita.
• Explosions engulfed Beyond and Alita as Moro's escape plan unfolded.

Moro used Flash Strike to save Chimera and Kurapika from Alita, but Beyond’s invisible attack wounded him and forced him to retreat while the ability remained on cooldown. As Beyond and Alita pursued, Beyond recognized that Moro’s Star Brilliance Condensation could sense his attacks and revealed the name of his ability, Mind Beyond Matter.

• Moro used Flash Strike to intercept Alita and knock her away from Chimera and Kurapika.
• Kurapika caught Moro with Chain Jail, but Moro warned him to release it after sensing Beyond’s invisible attack; Chimera carried Kurapika away.

Moro fought to escape Beyond Netero and Alita, using his Nen abilities and quick deductions to survive their coordinated attacks. After a minute of combat left him gravely wounded, he used Flash Strike to catch a Flying Star and rise into the sky while his decoys exploded below.

• Beyond Netero told Alita to cripple Moro, then used Mind Beyond Matter: Overwhelm to trap him in a gravitational field while Alita attacked.
• Moro evaded Alita’s light wave, deduced that Beyond Netero’s attacks could not change course, and used Deceptive Flying Stars: Dandelion to expose and dodge a remote attack.

• Moro used Flash Strike to appear above a Flying Star and catch it, rising into the sky as his other Flying Stars exploded near Byande and Alita.

Moro escaped Beyond’s pursuit with Kurapika and Chimera, but Beyond’s attacks and malicious Aura left Moro unconscious and near death. Chimera carried them toward the sky as its body began to melt, while Beyond watched from the ground, believing Moro’s brain had been destroyed.

• Moro used flying stars to flee toward Chimera, while Beyond propelled himself through the air and pursued him.

• Chimera carried Kurapika and Moro higher as its body began to melt, while Beyond emerged burned and assumed Moro’s brain had been destroyed.

After Beyond and Alita failed to stop Moro, Beyond returned to advancing his Dark Continent plan while Pariston arranged the Association's support. At the Zoldyck estate, Kalluto discovered signs that Moro had been gravely injured, then defied Kikyo to go find him.

• Beyond blamed Alita's poor aim for their failure to stop Moro, then decided to return and accelerate the plan.
• Pariston secured lucrative commissions for Specialist Hunters and considered where to stage the next phase of Beyond's plan.
• Kalluto returned to the Zoldyck estate and heard Maha explain that Zigg had once left home to travel with Netero.
• Kalluto found Moro's Paper Person of Life badly wrinkled, failed to reach Moro or Kurapika by phone, and watched the wrinkles begin to smooth.
• Kalluto decided to find Moro and firmly told Kikyo to stay out of it when she blocked his way.

Kalluto defied Kikyo and followed the Paper Person of Life toward Moro, whose condition improved as Kurapika treated him. Moro awakened in his consciousness space and discovered that its dark water and the negative memories it held had disappeared, while Kurapika continued healing him inside a Secret Realm.

• Kalluto walked past Kikyo despite her attempt to stop him, leaving her distraught.
• Kalluto watched the Paper Person of Life show Moro's gradual recovery, but Moro and Kurapika did not answer his messages.

• Moro awakened in his consciousness space, considered choosing Owl as a reversal target, and realized the black water and the negative memory entities of Orion and Chrollo had vanished.
• Kurapika continued treating Moro's injuries in the Floating Spinning Top Mountain Secret Realm while Biscuit watched.

Kurapika used his Chain of Healing for eight days to remove Beyond’s lingering influence and restore Moro’s limbs, finally waking him. Afterward, Moro learned that Kurapika planned to protect his clan’s eyes in their resting place, while a gigantic Chimera Ant nest appeared in a distant forest.

• Kurapika continued treating Moro despite the severe exhaustion and lifespan cost, while Biscuit helped him recover between sessions.
• Kalluto arrived, checked on Moro, and left wasabi-flavored candy crackers for Kurapika.
• Kurapika completed the treatment, cleared Beyond’s lingering willpower interference, and Moro woke after eight days unconscious.
• Moro asked Kurapika about his plans, and Kurapika said he intended to stay at the resting place and protect his clan’s eyes, despite regretting that he could not fulfill his promise to Pairo.
• Moro asked about the Chimera, and Kurapika looked toward a veined, stone-gray egg beneath a nearby tree.
• A gigantic Chimera Ant nest stood in a vast forest elsewhere.

Beyond and Pariston engineered the Chimera Ant Queen’s arrival in NGL and arranged for Hunter teams to enter at the right time, hoping to provoke an outside response before the colony grew too powerful. As Barbara and her team crossed into NGL, Chimera Ants were already slaughtering villagers, and their human-derived cruelty was undermining the colony’s discipline.

• Pariston sent the Chimera Ant Queen to NGL, where she built a nest and rapidly expanded the colony under Beyond’s plan.

• Barbara arrived at the NGL border with her team, unaware of the danger awaiting them.
• Fergus tortured and killed villagers while Casey focused on capturing enough people to meet the squad’s quota.
• Casey obeyed Fergus after he invoked Division Leader Molena, while Fergus’s cruelty reflected the human traits inherited by the Soldier Ants.

Moro met with Netero to report that Pariston and Monkey King Journey were Beyond's informants and urged the Chairman to weaken Pariston's influence and remove Journey from the Twelve Zodiacs. Their discussion was interrupted by news of an A-rank Chimera Ant disaster in NGL, leaving Moro planning to persuade Netero to let him join the extermination team.

• Moro and Kalluto traveled to Shvadani City, where Moro met Netero in disguise and revealed that Beyond had planted Pariston and Monkey King Journey in the Hunter Association.
• Moro urged Netero to weaken Pariston's influence and remove Journey from the Twelve Zodiacs, but Bean interrupted them with news of gigantic man-eating Chimera Ants in NGL.
• Moro realized the Chimera Ant incident had begun while he was unconscious and decided he would need to persuade Netero to let him join the extermination team.

Ponzu struggled to escape the NGL while Barbara fought the Chimera Ants, and Kite led Gon and Killua into the region to investigate the threat. The chapter ended with Moro asking to join the extermination squad and waiting for the Review Department’s decision so he could implant Star Mark in more ants.

• Ponzu used her hornets to avoid Chimera Ant patrols but saw Barbara surrounded and could not help her.
• Barbara killed a chimpanzee Chimera Ant with her Execution Protocol, while Molena headed toward the hunting circle and Zaiyilo left the colony.
• Two days later, Kite entered NGL with Gon and Killua, sent two teammates back with news, and continued toward the nest.
• Kite overlooked that the Royal Guards would be born before the Ant King and protect his birth.
• Moro told Netero that he wanted to join the extermination squad, and Netero referred the personnel decision to the Review Department.

Moro went to join the Chimera Ant extermination effort, but the Hunter Association’s Review Department rejected him, so he set out for NGL on his own. He arrived in time to rescue Ponzu from a Chimera Ant ambush and bound the surrounding army with Golden Chains.

• Netero told Bean that the Review Department had rejected Moro and approved Morel and Nobunaga instead, then explained that he had expected the decision and planned to take responsibility if Moro joined anyway.
• Bean informed Moro of the rejection, and Moro left the Association determined to act outside the extermination team and strengthen himself.
• Moro met Kalluto, gave him a voice-transmitting paper doll, and instructed him to travel to the NGL border and wait for Menchi.
• Moro flew to NGL, spotted hundreds of Chimera Ants and a Nen user below, and descended toward them.
• Ponzu was surrounded by Chimera Ants led by a lionlike Division Leader, who ordered the soldiers to capture her alive.
• Moro landed between Ponzu and the Chimera Ants, activated Star Brilliance Condensation, and restrained them all with Golden Chains.
