By now, only two members of the Phantom Troupe remained: Shizuku, as expressionless and unresponsive as a blank slate, and Chrollo, the Troupe's brain, who was now practically a one-legged spider.
Yet Qiao Lun could make out no emotion on either Shizuku's face or Chrollo's.
Shizuku simply focused on attacking Gon with Blinky.

With one hand covering the wound on his arm and the other unable to move because he had to keep that wound covered, he was forced entirely onto the defensive.
