A tall blond man in a black-and-white tracksuit stands in the foreground with a stern expression as dramatic speed lines and the large SFX 'ZAT' emphasize his presence. To his right stands a short-haired woman in a similar uniform, while a masked figure with a skull design on the mask lurks partially visible on the left. In the next panel, several Phantom Troupe members including a man with a topknot, a woman with long hair, and a boy with glasses react with surprise. The bottom spread shows the group walking through a spacious hall. Speech bubbles convey key information: 'THERE WAS A POWER OUTAGE.', 'AND THEY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF IT TO KIDNAP DANCHOU.', 'THE CHAIN GUY LEFT A MESSAGE.', and a direct command 'EXPLAIN.' The blond man and a long-haired woman walk ahead as the rest of the group follows, tension visible in their postures.

The discussion continues among the Phantom Troupe. Nobunaga questions why they did not pursue immediately. Machi warns that revealing what was read from memories will result in the hostage being killed. Pakunoda and Machi are confirmed injured. The group debates the strength of the two who took the boss, noting they are accompanied by pro hunters. A flashback panel shows the moment the lights went out. Phinks insists the chain user is the one who killed Uvo and is hard to defeat alone. The members argue about the value of the hostages and the meaning behind the message. Nobunaga laughs off the story while others stress the need to organize quickly.

In the aftermath of the hotel incident, a crowd gathers outside as concerned bystanders react. One man shouts, "WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS HOTEL?!" while another replies, "We're really sorry. We're currently doing all we can to..." Killua stands tall on the right side of the scene, arms crossed, and declares, "From this point on, we stay together." Nearby, a voice adds, "We'll pursue Danchou, and protect the wounded at the same time." Gon, Kurapika, and other allies stand together in the background. In a lower panel, someone questions, "Why was there a power outage?! And the police?!" If we can find the car that Danchou's in..." A character with slicked-back hair reacts with a sharp "tch" sound as another figure looks on. Suddenly, a phone rings with a dramatic "!!" effect and the caption "A CALL FROM DANCHOU'S CELLPHONE." The man answers the call with a close-up of his intense face, saying "HELLO?"

A heavyset man sits alone at a restaurant counter, eating from a pot of food with chopsticks. He holds a small piece of food near his mouth while a large burp escapes with the onomatopoeia "Hrr BURP" floating above him. Hanging menu signs list prices in yen for various dishes including "SOO YEN", "700 YEN", "800 YEN", "BREADED PORK 700 YEN", "FONDUE 1800 YEN", "SUSHI 2000 YEN", and "VACATIONS". The man thinks to himself in a speech bubble, "AND WHAT SHOULD I HAVE FOR DINNER...?" Empty bowls, cups, and a bottle sit on the counter in front of him. A dark banner at the bottom reads "N°115 -4-SEPTEMBRE-14" with an arrow.

Kurapika stares forward with a serious expression and asks, "ARE YOU THE CHAIN GUY?" A voice replies, "I'LL GIVE YOU THREE INSTRUCTIONS TO FOLLOW." In the car, Nobunaga sits with a cigarette, warning, "IF YOU DON'T, I'LL KILL THE ONE NEXT TO ME, YOUR BOSS." Pakunoda, seated beside him, adds firmly, "RESPECT THE THREE INSTRUCTIONS AT ALL COST." Phinks appears in a close panel, demanding, "GIVE ME PAKU." He continues, "CAN I ASK YOU SOMETHING BEFORE THAT?" The three instructions are displayed: "1st INSTRUCTION... DON'T FOLLOW US." "2nd INSTRUCTION... DON'T HURT THE HOSTAGES MORE THAN THEY CURRENTLY ARE." "3rd INSTRUCTION..." A car drives away into the night as the instructions are issued.

Kurapika Nobunaga Pakunoda Phinks

Phinks continues speaking on the phone, stating that negotiations are over because the hostages already have fractures. He apologizes, saying the information was false. Kurapika responds on his end, "HURRY UP AND GIVE ME PAKUNODA." He warns, "I WON'T GIVE YOU ANOTHER CHANCE, I'M WARNING YOU." Sound effects show a phone call ending with "Bip" and impacts "BING" "BATAM". In a chaotic panel, Machi and Feitan restrain a struggling figure while Phinks watches. The group later walks together, with Pakunoda, a masked figure, and others moving forward as Kurapika's voice calls out.

Phinks Kurapika Pakunoda Machi Feitan

Nobunaga grabs Pakunoda by the collar, shouting furiously. "Idiot! Don't play around with Danchou's life! Are you crazy? That hurt!" Pakunoda replies calmly, "I didn't think he'd hang up..." Machi answers a ringing phone with "Hello? I'll kill you." From the other end, a voice says, "I didn't have bad intentions. Now isn't the time for that. I thought it was a chance to let off some steam. It's also your fault: if you hadn't been tricked..." Pakunoda, now holding the phone, commands, "Isolate yourself." Feitan, standing nearby with a small device, adds, "First, I want you to be the only one to hear what I have to tell you." In a wide shot of a modern building interior, Pakunoda speaks into the phone while an unseen voice responds, "Reading his memory, you learned who Senritsu is, correct?" Pakunoda answers, "Yes..." The voice continues, "You touched someone named Scuwala, correct?" Pakunoda replies, "Yes..."

The caller warns Pakunoda, "Talking, using a secret code, blinking, whatever. You've been warned." Pakunoda is told, "First, I forbid you to have any communication with your comrades. You know you won't be able to give us anything but the real thing. In that case, I'll get right to the point." The caller continues, "You'll come alone. And now a place to meet. If we detect the least suspicious movement, I kill your boss." Pakunoda answers, "Understood." Elsewhere, the topknotted man reacts with surprise, "What?" while another figure stands nearby. The caller specifies, "Not the one from before. Give me one of your comrades." In a nighttime city street, the caller states, "Give the cellphone to Pakunoda, and prepare another one. I will use it to contact you at an undetermined time. All ten of you stay in the same place, with the hostages. I will meet with Pakunoda, alone. You and the others stay at your lair." The topknotted man replies, "I'm listening."

Nobunaga stares ahead with a stern expression and states his condition. "OK." A voice on the phone repeats the instructions firmly. "THE MEETING PLACE : I REPEAT ONCE MORE, YOU COME ALONE." Pakunoda listens with a serious face. "HELLO?" A small figure with a topknot hands the receiver over. "PAKU." "GIVE ME PAKUNODA." The scene shifts to a wide view of the empty terminal at night. "RINGO AIRPORT." "THE PLACE IS..." Pakunoda stands in the foreground with an intense glare as motion lines and impact effects burst around her. "PAKU ?!" "LAST DELAY : 8 O'CLOCK."

Nobunaga Pakunoda Phinks Kortopi

Pakunoda walks away through the open doorway into the night. "HEY! WAIT!" Phinks and Nobunaga stand with other Troupe members watching her leave. A close-up shows Nobunaga's eyes as he explains the situation. "AND TO LET PAKUNODA GO ALONE." "THE CHAIN GUY TOLD US TO RETURN TO OUR LAIR." The other members react with confusion. "WHAT?" "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?" "ARE YOU ILL?" "WHAT'RE YOU SAYING?" Nobunaga grabs Phinks by the collar and warns him. "IF WE DISOBEY HIS ORDERS, AND FOLLOW PAKU, HE'LL KILL DANCHOU." "YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND?" Nobunaga continues with a fierce expression. "IF HE DOES THAT, HE'S NEXT ON THE LIST." "ARE YOU REALLY DUMB?"

Pakunoda stands with her back partially turned, declaring that the Spider must come first. Nobunaga stares back with wide eyes as she adds that this is what the boss would say. In close-up, Pakunoda's intense gaze fills the frame while she insists the current thinking is an insult to the Spider. Nobunaga and Machi face each other; Nobunaga states that following Paku is now the absolute priority and that acting as he did earlier is out of the question. Shizuku stands in the center, warning that following the other man's instructions will make everything unfold exactly as predicted. She agrees there is no point in letting Pakunoda leave alone. Shizuku turns to ask what Shizuku thinks. Phinks and Machi both declare they share Nobunaga's opinion and should simply do what he says. In the background, someone notes that quarrels within the Ryodan are forbidden, yet Nobunaga's case clearly breaks the rules.

Pakunoda Nobunaga Machi Shizuku Phinks

Shizuku stands with arms crossed, noting that Pakunoda would not have left without a word and that she must share the same view. Nobunaga's silhouette appears beside her as he states he does not want Danchou to die now and holds the same opinion as Nobunaga. Phinks, looking weary, says there is no way to discuss this further and that he is fed up. A tight close-up shows Nobunaga's intense glare as he declares Pakunoda is most important right now and that he wants to break everything but holds back. In a large dark panel, Nobunaga sits with his sword across his lap while a figure in the background draws a sword and declares that another step will force him to draw. Nobunaga calmly says wait as the tension peaks among the gathered members.

Shizuku Nobunaga Phinks

Nobunaga glares intensely and snaps, "JUST YOU TRY IT!" A close-up shows his tense profile as he mutters "OH..." Nearby, a Troupe member with a topknot sits with eyes closed in quiet focus. Shizuku stands over a fallen comrade, gripping her massive vacuum cleaner. She declares, "WITH HIS OPINION, YES. BUT NOT WITH BREAKING THE RULES." Nobunaga questions her, "SO WHY'D YOU LET HIM FROM BEHIND? I THOUGHT YOU WERE ON HIS SIDE?" Shizuku replies firmly, "SERIOUS QUARRELS ARE FORBIDDEN WITHIN THE RYODAN." She continues, "REJECTING THE RULES IS REJECTING THE SPIDER ITSELF. AND, CONSEQUENTLY, REJECTING DANCHOU. AND I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT." The fallen member lies motionless on the floor.

Phinks holds Danchou's phone and says, "I'LL GET IT." Pakunoda's small device rings with "fuuuut fuuuut" sounds. Gon, Killua, and Kurapika stand together as hostages while a silhouette watches. Nobunaga demands, "GIVE ME ONE OF THE HOSTAGES." Pakunoda confirms the kids are arguing about following her. She tells the caller, "THIS IS WHY PAKUNODA CAME QUIETLY WHEN I ASKED HER TO. WE HAVE AMONGST US SOMEONE ONE CAPABLE OF DETECTING LIES." The caller responds, "I'LL EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO YOU." Pakunoda warns, "YOU HAVE 30 MINUTES TO GET BACK TO YOUR HOTEL. IF YOU'D LIKE, YOU CAN TAKE IT OUT ON THE HOSTAGES. I DON'T CARE. YOUR BOSS WILL DIE. THAT'S ALL." Elsewhere, someone yells "DAMN!!!" while another voice concludes, "IT'S USELESS TO FOLLOW HER, THEN?!"

A massive distorted sound effect "ZAAAAAAAAAAT" rips across the top of the ruined interior as impact lines and debris fill the background. Speech bubbles read: "IF ALL OF US AREN'T GATHERED HERE DANCHOU DIES..." and "HE'S USING THE HOSTAGES AS INTERMEDIATES." Another bubble states "ALL THE SEVEN ARE RETURNING." Below, a hand holds a small flip phone displaying "Bip" while showing a distant figure kneeling amid rubble. A bandaged man with facial stitches glares and mutters "CUNNING." followed by "THAT BASTARD ISN'T STUPID." In close-up, a woman with a star-shaped earring and short hair thinks in two bubbles: "IN OTHER WORDS, I'M STUCK HERE." and "IF I LEAVE, I HAVE A CHANCE TO FIGHT KURORO... BUT IF I LEAVE, HE'LL BE KILLED." Two phone screens display rows of strange symbols and hearts; one reads "OKAY." while the other states "SO IF YOU CAN HELP ME." with additional "Bip" sounds. The bottom panel shows a long-haired silhouette standing in darkness, holding a phone and saying "I'VE KNOWN YOU FAR LONGER THAN KURORO, AFTER ALL, BUT IT WON'T COME FREE."
