4-SEPTEMBRE

In a ruined, rubble-strewn area, several figures sit or stand among the debris. A large speech bubble asks "YOUR DATE OF BIRTH?" A man with a topknot and robe stands with his back partially turned. In a close panel, the same man states "SEPTEMBER 8TH, 1970." while another character asks "WHEN WERE YOU BORN?" A mustached man responds "HUH?" followed by an ellipsis. Someone shouts "HAZAMA NOBUNAGA! YOU KNOW THAT!" Questions follow: "NAME?" answered with "B.", and "BLOOD TYPE?" A bandaged figure is shown. From behind, a character commands "WRITE IT DOWN ON THIS SHEET OF PAPER." Another voice says "THAT'S ALL..." while a large bubble demands "AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW NEXT ?!" The page is labeled "N°104 4 SEPTEMBRE -3" at the bottom.

A massive white creature with pointed ears rears back, its jaws stretched wide in a silent roar as a hand grips a thin needle-like object and drives it toward the open mouth. Below, Neon stares upward in shock, her eyes wide and mouth slightly open, a cross-shaped mark glowing on her forehead. Her dark jacket bears matching cross emblems on the chest. Dramatic speed lines radiate outward from the center of the page, emphasizing the sudden tension. At the bottom, heavy sound effects rumble across the panel: "バタタタタタ ゴゴゴゴ" and "バタタタタタ ゴゴゴゴ".

Narration fills the top of the page: "THE CHRYSANTHEMUM WILL LOSE LEAF AND FLOWERS WHICH WILL WITHER, FALLING TO THE EARTH OF THE RED EYES TAINTED WITH BLOOD. HOWEVER, THE SPIDER WON'T STOP, ALTHOUGH SHE HAS ONLY HALF OF HER LIMBS LEFT." and "PART OF THE PRECIOUS PAPER WILL BE LOST. THE REMAINING MOONS WILL DEPLORE THIS LOSS. JANUARY, NEW AND WORRYING, GOES ALONE, AND CONTINUES GOING AFTER THE SHADOW OF NOVEMBER." A mustached man with a serious expression holds a torn piece of paper. Close-ups show his eyes narrowing. In the lower panels, a spiky-haired man asks "WHAT'S NOBUNAGA'S RESULT?" while another figure replies that everything is explained. Neon appears, stating "YOU HAVE TO ASK THE PERSON IN QUESTION." The mustached man explains the systematic writing and that Neon has a lot of influence on the Godfathers. A seated man in a dark coat declares "IT'S THE SKILL OF BEING ABLE TO MAKE PREDICTIONS THAT ARE 100% CERTAIN, WITH POEMS, THAT I STOLE FROM A YOUNG LADY." Neon adds that the girl knew nothing about the Godfathers.

A man with a distinctive topknot hairstyle sits in a dim room as another Ryodan member with a goatee discusses the contents of a written fortune. The goatee man explains that each prediction covers the weeks of the current month in four or five paragraphs of four lines each. He notes that the predictions seem consistent across the group. A young boy with spiky hair listens nearby while the topknotted man, Nobunaga, reacts with surprise. The goatee man continues, stating that apparently five of them will die next week. In a close-up, he looks concerned. Below, hands hold the precious paper as the goatee man reads aloud the only decipherable part: the spider losing half of her limbs. Nearby, three Ryodan members react with confusion, one asking 'WHOM?' while another says 'I DUNNO.' A long-haired woman glances sideways with a neutral expression.

The cross-forehead leader of the Genei Ryodan leans forward as the group examines the prediction. A young member with glasses stands nearby while the leader asks to see the paper. The goatee member warns that besides the one already lost, five more will be lost, meaning parts of the spider's body will be gone. The cross-forehead leader states that the same paragraph appeared in his own prediction and that the result would be identical for any member. The glasses-wearing boy offers to test it, saying 'TRY IT ON ME.' In the background, another member reacts with shock as debris flies. A large black panel displays the full text of the fortune about being plunged into eternal rest among black items, loneliness, and the final line about writing on a tombstone with letters of blood so that November does not feel alone anymore.

A young person with glasses and spiky black hair raises one hand and declares, "NEXT WEEK, I'LL DIE." In the adjacent panel, a chaotic scene shows several figures amid rubble and debris as a voice responds, "I SEE." Below, the same glasses-wearing youth continues, "YES, THE PROOF IS THAT THE PREDICTIONS SAY IT WITHIN TWO WEEKS," while another panel shows a close-up of their face and a simple "SERIOUSLY." In a larger panel, the youth leans forward with a serious expression and states, "I DON'T KNOW WHO THE 'RED EYES TAINTED WITH BLOOD' PERSON IS..." A separate bubble adds, "NEXT, PAKUNODA, AND SHALNARK TOO." A bald man with a topknot nods, "EXACTLY," as another character notes, "NOVEMBER IS THE 11TH, UVO'S NUMBER." The bald man asks, "WHERE DO YOU SEE THAT?" The youth explains, "IT'S EASY: THE MONTHS CORRESPOND TO THE NUMBER WE HAVE IN THE RYODAN." In the bottom panel, a woman with a cross tattoo on her forehead and long dark hair turns her head and elaborates, "THE FACT THAT LEAF AND FLOWER ARE FALLING, EVEN MORE THAT THEY'RE WITHERING, CAN ONLY MEAN DEATH." She continues, "CHRYSANTHEMUM IS SEPTEMBER, THE 9TH, LEAF IS AUGUST, THE 8TH, AND SINCE THEY'RE WITHERING, IT'S JUNE, THE 6TH, IT'S A CODE TO BE DECIPHERED." A footnote explains the Japanese kanji meanings for the months.

A distant panel shows several small figures standing amid ruins with an exclamation mark and a large speech bubble declaring, "IT'S THE CHAIN GUY, THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT." Nearby, a blond man with a serious expression says, "SCARLET EYES, IT'S NOT ONE OF US." In the next row, a hooded figure asks, "DOES THAT MEAN THERE WAS A SURVIVOR?" while a woman with long hair recalls, "I REMEMBER NOW: THE ONES WHOSE EYES BECAME RED." She adds, "SCARLET EYES..." A close-up shows a wide-eyed man looking shocked, followed by a panel of the blond man writing and saying, "I DUNNO, IT MIGHT NOT BE HIS BLOOD THAT WILL COVER THE GROUND... AND THAT HE'LL DIE TOO." In the bottom section, a short-haired girl in a jacket points forward and states, "BUT WE CAN'T SAY THAT OF SHIZUKU NOR PAKUNODA." She continues, "IT WOULD BE A HUGE LOSS FOR THE RYODAN," and "THE ABILITIES OF NOBUNAGA AND I ARE EASY TO REPLACE." Another bubble warns, "IF WE KEEP PURSUING THE CHAIN GUY, WE WON'T ESCAPE UNSCATHED. WE'LL LOSE HALF OUR FORCES." The blond man asks, "DO YOU UNDERSTAND, NOBUNAGA?" while a figure sits on rubble in the background.

In the ruined city, members of the Genei Ryodan discuss their next moves. One voice states, "If we decide to avoid him and leave... we can be 100% certain that the predictions won't come true." Another explains, "The main purpose for this ability to predict is to provide a chance to escape bad events." A third warns, "If we go back to our lands during the day, the probability of meeting the chain guy would be null." The date is confirmed as "It's the first Saturday of September." Large sound effects rumble through the devastated streets. Later, a close-up shows a stern man with a goatee asking, "You were the ones who decided to be on the front line, weren't you?" Neon, marked with a cross on her forehead, replies calmly while another voice adds, "Uvo and you were a duet for special attacks. Dying was a risk in your work." From the shadows, a small figure holding a book is visible as someone says, "No-buna-ga."

Two boys stand amid the rubble; one asks, "Am I wrong?" A Ryodan member responds about their roles, "As for both of you, your roles were to protect them and act as a shield." Another states, "They're the life line that ensures the security of our actions." Close-ups reveal Shizuku, Pakunoda, and Shalnark as the ones mainly handling information gathering and cleanup. A man with a topknot asks, "Do you have something to add?" while another inquires, "Can you be the one who does exactly as he pleases... without taking care of the interests of the Ryodan?" Neon watches silently. The page ends on a wide shot of the devastated city with a large speech bubble replying, "No..."

A massive building shakes violently under a barrage of heavy impacts and explosions, with debris flying and dark smoke billowing across the skyline. Inside a dimly lit room, Leorio sits on the left with hands clasped, Kurapika stands in the center facing the group, Gon stands upright with a serious expression, and Killua sits on the floor nearby. Neon Nostrade leans forward in the foreground, hand near her chin, as she asks, 'SO, WHAT ARE WE DOING?' Close-up panels capture the tense reactions: Neon declares, 'THAT GIRL IS A THREAT TO ME,' followed by Killua's 'TRUE,' Leorio's sharp profile, and urgent statements from the others, 'WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO THINK!!' and 'IF WE MOVE, IT HAS TO BE NOW!!' In a dramatic close-up against a black background, Neon’s eyes blaze with determination as she continues, 'EVEN IF THE RYODAN HAS LOST HER MIND, I WON'T STOP BEFORE I HAVE RE-ACQUIRED THE EYES OF MY BROTHERS,' adding, 'AS GON SAID...'

In a dark setting, a stern-faced man with light hair and a teardrop marking holds a small device that emits a single 'bip' sound. A sudden bright flash erupts with radiating speed lines, followed by a small panel showing the man pressing the device to his ear while two figures react in the background with a 'fooot' sound effect. A close-up reveals the device screen displaying Japanese text and symbols, accompanied by the caption 'THE CORPSES WERE FAKE.' The final panel shows a massive dark explosion or impact cloud expanding violently with motion lines streaking outward.
