Chapter Summaries

After the Doctor’s death, Leo left the Hunter Association and headed for Heaven’s Arena, determined to expose the powerful people behind the operation. The V5 conspirators decided to use the Ten Dons to target the Colton Gang and Leo.

• Mizai Istom told the group he would report that the Doctor and her subordinates had died in the base’s self-destruct, keeping their involvement secret.

• Five figures met remotely and discussed the Doctor’s death and Leo’s background, including his ties to Biscuit Krueger and the Heart Source School.
• The conspirators ordered Liam to have the Ten Dons target the Colton Gang, hoping to strike at Leo while someone else dealt with Netero.

Liam reviewed Leo’s record and decided to keep his current partners while watching Leo’s progress. Two days later, Leo visited Wing at Heaven’s Arena, where he reunited with Wing and Zushi and met Gon and Killua.

• Liam studied Leo’s file, recognized him as a potential rival to Netero, and chose to delay ending his partnership while observing him.

• Gon welcomed Leo excitedly, while Killua realized Leo had approached without being detected and felt uneasy around him.
• Leo told Gon that he and Wing had studied under the same master, but said Gon would learn the master’s identity someday.
• Leo argued that Killua should call him Uncle because Wing had taught Killua Nen, prompting Gon and Zushi to agree with him.

Leo taught Gon, Killua, and Zushi the foundations and advanced applications of Nen over several days, while Wing watched and welcomed the help. When Kastro returned to Heaven’s Arena, Leo handed the next part of the training over to his disciple so he could rest.

• Leo told Kastro to take over the training, explaining that he could rest now that Kastro had arrived.

Leo agreed to fund the Colton Family’s animal purchases despite their need to save money for the Yorknew City auction, then slaughtered more than 26,000 creatures and reached level 75. With his funds dwindling, he set off for the Ulubian Continent to hunt wanted criminals and find more creatures, while considering how to help Vivian’s family rise among the Ten Dons.

• Dean told Leo that the Colton Family’s purchases would slow because Vivian needed funds for the September 1st underground auction, and Leo offered to pay for continued purchases.
