The acclaimed manga series Hunter x Hunter, created by Yoshihiro Togashi, has returned after a two-year hiatus, with new chapters captivating fans once again. With a month and a half of continuous releases under its belt, anticipation is high for Chapter 406, which promises to unveil more about Chrollo Lucilfer—a central antagonist and the enigmatic leader of the Phantom Troupe.
This ongoing narrative arc presents the potential for significant developments, possibly leading to climactic endings for various characters and factions, including the notorious Phantom Troupe.
Chrollo’s Treasure Hunt in Chapter 406
Chrollo’s Intentions to Sacrifice Himself
In Chapter 405, Chrollo’s role was somewhat peripheral, as the focus shifted to characters like Hisoka and the Heil-Ly. However, a significant mention was made by Bonolenov regarding Chrollo’s quest for a special treasure aboard the Black Whale. The true nature of this treasure remains shrouded in mystery but is believed to possess the power necessary to eliminate Hisoka permanently.
This “treasure”could very likely be a potent Nen ability belonging to another character on the ship or possibly a powerful artifact. Regardless, it is anticipated that its acquisition might not only end Hisoka’s life but also lead to Chrollo’s demise, given his willingness to sacrifice himself for this goal.
The Phantom Troupe members appear to sense Chrollo’s dangerous fixation, prompting them to intervene and potentially thwart his fatal intentions. However, Chrollo’s determination may seal his fate, potentially marking the end of both his story and that of the Phantom Troupe as this arc unfolds.
As Bonolenov noted, “Everyone knows he wants to settle it once and for all by himself… the treasure he seeks is an ability that he’ll need to kill Hisoka for good.” The stakes are rising, signaling a pivotal chapter ahead as Chrollo edges closer to his fateful confrontation.
Xi-Yu’s Quest for Revenge
- Bonolenov was responsible for Lynch’s death.
- Hinrigh and Zakura are set on revenge.
Chapter 405 also brought Bonolenov to the forefront, revealing a critical error. Disguised as Hisoka, Bonolenov encountered Lynch Fullboko, resulting in her death after his cover was blown. Despite his attempts to mask his involvement, the intelligence of the Xi-Yu, particularly Hinrigh, suggests they will not remain uninformed for long.
As Chapter 406 unfolds, Hinrigh and Zakura are likely to discover Lynch’s body, igniting a desire for vengeance against Bonolenov. The implications of this contrast could severely impact the dynamics within both the Xi-Yu and the Phantom Troupe, especially if Hisoka is wrongly blamed for Lynch’s demise.
As tensions rise, Xi-Yu’s implications could lead to a ripple effect that disrupts alliances within the Heil-Ly family. The discovery of Lynch’s body might catalyze significant retaliatory measures against Hisoka, who currently has no connection to the Phantom Troupe in the eyes of the Xi-Yu.
Importance of Hisoka and Bonolenov in Chapter 406
- Bonolenov is tracking Hisoka.
- Bonolenov is at significant risk.
A pivotal theme from Chapter 405 includes the revelation regarding Hisoka’s true identity—the Hisoka encountered was, in fact, a decoy created using Bonolenov’s Nen power, Metamorphosen. At present, it remains unclear whether Hisoka is aware of Bonolenov’s tracking; however, given Hisoka’s capabilities, he may very well be laying a trap for him.
With Hisoka’s objective to eliminate each member of the Phantom Troupe, Bonolenov stands at the crossroads of danger. Hisoka possesses an overwhelming strength and a strategic advantage due to his Nen ability, Bungee Gum, which can effectively immobilize Bonolenov, rendering him powerless in confrontation.
As Bonolenov navigates this treacherous situation, failure to relay critical information back to Chrollo could result in dire consequences, including his own death. Should that occur, the emotional toll on Chrollo, compounded by the loss of his fellow Troupe members, will only intensify his quest for vengeance against Hisoka, even if it leads to mutual destruction.
