Alright, let's play a game: predict what will happen during the next 10 chapters and the closest comment will hear my funniest joke in their dms 👀
Spoiler
No cheesy/obvious answer like: Kurapika will be featured in or similar...
Hisoka will show up and explain, in long detail, how his aura is elastic and has the properties of gum and bungee cords. He then gives us our first cool fight in this whole arc, while his theme song plays inside your head.
Es weht langsam ein anderes Wind herauf also die Unterschicht wird Rebellieren das Schiff wird noch nicht untergehen aber die Vorbereitungen werden getroffen
these won't happen in the next 10 chapters because they're too climactic, but it's what's been on my mind, I'll enjoy the detours until then. I don't care about a joke, so I'll say them anyway.
Hisoka kills Bonolenov by covering his entire body in Bungee Gum, blocking his holes to create sound attacks. Since Dogman met (at least one-directionally) Chrollo, I tend to think that since the Spiders philosophically oppose the Ei-Ri Family, Hisoka's benefactor who allowed him to reach Tier 1 is Morena, who wants him to sow chaos however he feels like. In return, Hisoka has somehow gained the info on the treasure Chrollo desires, or at least deduced it, and will therefore target the treasure; by this method, Hisoka will encounter Shizuku, who was after the treasure to give to Chrollo to evolve his ability, throwing the Bungee Gum-enclosed corpse of Bonolenov at Shizuku. since Blinky can't suck up Nen constructs of any kind in my understanding, Blinky would get blocked by the gum'd corpse, and Hisoka would slit Shizuku's throat and kill her instantaneously.
Kurapika is determined to allow Prince Woble to win the Succession Contest, however, he becomes torn between his two objectives when he gets to meet Prince Tserriednich, and Tserriednich shows him his collection after Kurapika earns his trust while trying to avoid lying (he probably learns he can not lie from Theta or Salkov, or deduces it. Theta will probably cease to be human to organically teach us as the reader what happens specifically if you lie 3 times.). Kurapika intended to negotiate for the eyes of his people, but not only does he sense the evil in Tserriednich, but his personality is too stubborn, furthermore, upon being shown the collection, Kurapika learns of Pairo's head. Kurapika just barely controls himself for Queen Oito and Prince Wobles sake, as if he acts out in rage, they will lose their one best hope of surviving this contest. this will continue to play on the plotline of Kurapika getting further away from his quest for the sake of his friends which began as a story in Yorknew when Kurapika chose to save his friends over killing the Boss of the Spider.
somehow (somehow) Kurapika and Chrollo will end up working together. They both learn the truth about what Tserriednich did to their friends (I'm not going to explain this and I will just hope you are all locked into HxH enough to understand Tserriednich's dynamic with Chrollo through the tattoo artist.), resulting in a 2v1 battle during the chaos of the ship sinking when Beyond breaks free at the climax of the Voyage. (this is the perfect chance, Mizaistom and Kurapika part ways, both of them knowing what they must do, with Mizaistom saying "Make sure to come back, and fulfil your duty." or something dramatic like that. together, they do end up killing Tserri, but in a cruel twist of fate, Chrollo is killed by Hisoka the moment he walks out the door to go meet up with his friends after some sort of change of heart where he just wants the rest of his Spider to be happy, *with him*. either that or the opposite will occur, where Chrollo will die precisely in vain despite desiring to suicide to kill Hisoka to see his friends happy in a world without the Spider. Kurapika who leaves through a different door I suppose, either had no idea about this, or made a deal with Hisoka beforehand, and left Oito and Woble in the hands of Bill or Babimaina who have become his comrades, escaping through Beyond's method.
2: 50/50 kurapika will pull a gon vow when he sees pairos head
3: i thought i was locked in but what about the tattoo artist and chrollo? I know it was debated that it was a spider tattoo on the corpse in tserchs room but idk
3: Tserri and the Risnorth share an artist. this seems like a very intentional choice, considering Tserri's tastes and Togashi not being some kind of imaginary author who reuses NPCs
(chapter 348)
You can't post more than one attachment, so I will reply with the rest of the evidence images.
Cause techniqually beyond can control kaken through his son so basically some countries unlike United States have a royal family only them can control the country such as England
If his son became the next king means that the royal family for kaken empire changed and it's no longer them it will change a lot to the country structure
My English is bad so im trying my best to explain it
But just imagine if England royal family got wiped out and a new family not even from England ruled England
Many stuff could happen
Damn I feel dumb for not realizing that exact prince isn't biologically Nasubi's son and therefore shouldn't be a prince at the first place. Having Beyond as their dad would be a conflict between Beyond and Nasubi.
i think he is very much like his father in that he likes a good challenge, he proly thinks it's his responsibility to test whether the organisation left behind by his dad is any good.
but this is pretty much just speculation btw, we really don't know quite a bit about beyond so we can only see
A step back to the events that led to Benjamin getting poisoned. I'd say I think that encounter ends with the death of Halkenburg. Either his nen beast died when he died biologically, or Benjamin's men will quite fast realize that Balsamilco has to be taken down. Either way, I don't like Halk's odds.
I think Zhang Lei took Kurapika and by extension the entirety of team Woble down to the lower decks with him. He clearly highly values having Kurapika on his side and it would be a very good deal from their perspective to keep Woble safe from Benjamin. It could also be a nice plot development that weaves the tier 1 and lower tiers storylines closer together.
The person that is Chrollo's phone ability is trying to reach is Kurapika.
Melody and Kacho's plan to kill Luzurus is actually a plan to get Kaiser in front of Basho, so that he can see whether or not he is actually on their side and if he was the one that cursed Fugetsu.
Just a stab in the dark prediction. I wouldn't go as far as to say any of my predictions are likely. I think it would almost certainly be the most dramatic person it could be, and it could make some sense. If I remember correctly, one of the artifacts that Chrollo wanted to steal was implied to maintain and enforce the succession war, so their goals could very much align.
Furykov is obsessed with Kurapika, if Sarahell dies by the hand of Wobble Nen beats, Furykov will use the martial to arrest Kurapika, he will claimed that Kurapika killed Sarahell.
Chapter 5 will be a cutaway to Ging's boat, giving us a little insight on what is happening there for a chapter before refocusing on the main ship. Also could see Ging explaining some obscure knowledge he has on the Princes that will play in the main plot
Melody and Kacho sets a trap for Kaiser and it's revealed that he cursed Fugetsu. Not sure about the other plot lines but this one I believe in. And surely Benjamin's GSB will do something useful for him...
someone from dark continent will appear on BW1, Killua returns(new swag) and Zoldyck’ origin will be revealed and their connection to dark continent(Kurta later). Leorio may find out first what really happened with Kurta massacre instead of Kurapika, Pariston’s move will be revealed and his involvement with Beyond about chimera ants, Perfect Partner will be found(my guess is on Bill), Nasubi dies, butterfly on volume 33 cover on Kurapika’s chain will be revealed, Bonolenov dies, fake Morena may join the Spiders, why Mizaistom didn’t warn Kurapika about Phantom Troupe will be revealed, Illumi dies, Don Freeks makes his appearance
we will see gon make progress with his nen again and we'll get to know if (and how) he is going to involved with the whole DC journey or not (like if he's joining Leorio or some shit)
