The title page erupts with the clash of three hunters against three insects in an ultimate battle for survival. A masked female fighter stands poised on the left while a small X-eyed figure hovers nearby. In the center, Choki unleashes a barrage of fists with the unstoppable attack of a thousand fists. Dramatic sound effects ZAZA and LA fill the air as Choki shouts HO HO HO! NOW ... TAKE THIS! A voice cries HAA! amid the flying punches marked BO BO. Translator's note identifies CHOKI as the sound for cutting stuff. The page declares No.193 CHOKI and announces the Hunter × Hunter anime resumption.

Choki lunges forward with blinding speed. Gon reacts with surprise as the insectoid fighter closes in. Choki's multiple arms blur in a rapid assault labeled FAST MOVEMENT. Gon ducks low and delivers a powerful punch-trip combination that sends Choki reeling. The impact produces a heavy BU sound and KT on the ground. Choki's mouth gapes wide in the middle of the strike while Gon maintains his low stance with spiky hair whipping from the motion.

Gon stands with his back to the viewer, facing a group of insect-like humanoid enemies. One bald opponent with stitched facial features and armor remarks, "YOU'RE STRONGER THAN I EXPECTED." Another voice adds, "THAT WAS CLOSE." A large panel shows the enemies recoiling from an impact with the onomatopoeia "G U H Z A Z A Z A." Gon thinks to himself about the hardness of insect bodies versus human flexibility. Close-up panels show a bald head with sweat drops and a clenched fist labeled "BU." Gon concentrates aura on his fist and declares, "FIRST UP IS ... ROCK!" while thinking, "I MUST NOT HOLD BACK ... !" The panel captures Gon in a dynamic forward-leaning stance with intense focus, motion lines emphasizing his power.

Killua's profile appears on the left with a serious expression. A winged female Chimera Ant with a butterfly-like appearance hovers in the air holding two small creatures, one spiky-haired and one with a round head. She taunts, "KAKAKA, HEY BOY! WHICH OF THESE TWO NAMES WOULD YOU PREFER, POCHI OR KORO!?" Killua's internal monologue reads, "KILL! WITHOUT HESITATION ..." A narration box states, "I HAVEN'T PERFORMED THE TRANSFORMATION IN A LONG TIME ..." The bottom panel shows a close-up of Killua's face with wild hair, narrowed eyes, and a focused, intense gaze as he prepares to act.

Killua reels from a powerful blow as the Chimera Ant girl lunges forward with her arm extended. "SNAKE AWAKENS!!" she declares while striking him. Impact sounds "MIKI" and "BUKI" ring out as his body twists under the force. In the next panel the girl snaps her own hand off at the wrist. Killua stares sharply from the shadows. She then lunges again with a new stinger extended from her arm, shouting "TAKE THIS!!" as a loud "BII" sound effect and "(SWOOSH)" mark the thrust. A close-up shows her determined face and the stinger flying forward while she adds "you ..."

Killua's face shows intense focus as motion lines and "DOZUU" mark his movement. A close-up captures his widened eyes during a fast stabbing motion labeled "SHAA". The Chimera Ant girl stabs at him with her stinger. In the wide panel Killua dodges and counters by grabbing her arm, twisting her body. She yells "THIS ONE'S THE REAL POISON STING!" while a small face at the bottom reacts in shock. She continues "KAKAKA, YOU LITTLE IDIOT!!" as Killua maintains his grip on her extended limb.

A masked woman peers over and calls out, "YOU DID COME OVER THERE?" Nearby, the tall winged Chimera Ant remarks, "HE WAS INTERESTING. IF THIS GUY IS STILL ALIVE, WE'LL MAKE HIM A HUMAN DOG. ♥" and adds with a smile, "HMM ♪ THAT WAS OVER FAST." The masked woman wonders, "NOT YET?" while a small "HMM." floats nearby. In the distance, Gon and another figure dash across the sandy ground. Suddenly a massive "POK!!" erupts as a body flips violently upside-down with its head twisted around, prompting a lone "?" from an observer. The scene shifts to a dramatic close-up: Gon stands with his head wrenched at an unnatural angle, his body arched backward over the masked woman who lies pinned beneath him, her eyes wide with shock and limbs splayed.

Gon, still with his head twisted, declares, "STAY PUT AND I'LL END THIS QUICKLY." He adds, "YOUR POISON ... WELL, I'M IMMUNE TO POISONS." The masked woman reacts with a startled "H ... HOW?" while recoiling. Sharp impact SFX "BIKI BIKI" accompany the tearing of fabric or flesh near a small masked figure in the background. The masked woman admits in a close-up, "I WAS JUST TOO WEAK." and concludes, "WELL, I GUESS I CAN'T HELP IT." The page ends on a stark silhouette: Gon stands facing the kneeling winged Chimera Ant whose head is dramatically split or damaged, wings splayed, with the masked woman's body collapsed at their feet.

Gon maintains a fierce aura as he stares down his opponent. The bald fighter sweats nervously, thinking that getting too close to Gon will result in heavy damage and wondering what kind of power is flowing out of him. Nearby, a hairy fighter panics that if he does not attack, Yunjyu will kill him, while another voice mocks him for shifting his pants. Gon’s fist glows with power. The bald fighter lunges forward with a "JIRI" as the power flows visibly from Gon’s hand. In close-up, a multi-armed creature declares it will poison and bite Gon, realizing the next attack will be a hundred times more powerful. The creature resolves to guard with its eight left hands and pin Gon down with its eight right hands no matter the cost.

The multi-armed creature braces itself, shouting that no matter how much power is behind Gon’s fist, it can take the damage because it is prepared. It insists the attack is just a fist. Gon yells "JAN!" and "KEN!" as he charges forward. The bald fighter starts running and raises his guard with a loud "GUARD!" while the creature continues to stand firm against the incoming strike. A large "ZA" sound effect marks the clash as the bald fighter moves into position to defend.

Gon leans in close with a fierce, focused glare, his mouth open as he commits to his technique. "SCISSORS!" he shouts. Below, a compact mechanical form reacts with a sharp "!?" as two circular ports with plus signs come into view amid motion lines. In the final panel, Gon's hand grips a thin, straight implement extended forward, the motion suggesting the release of his chosen attack.

Gon

Gon lunges forward at high speed, his right arm fully extended and hair whipping behind him. Two small figures are violently scattered by the force: one bald figure is torn apart with limbs and debris flying outward, while a second figure with dark hair is hurled away in pieces, bones and fragments trailing behind. Gon’s expression remains locked in concentration as the impact unfolds.

Gon leaps forward with a drawn sword, shocking the bald creature who yells 'WHERE THE HELL WAS HE HIDING IT!?' and 'IMPOSSIBLE!! A SWORD!?' The creature is struck and collapses with a heavy impact, its body hitting the floor. Lying prone, the creature thinks 'SINCE I HAVE THE DISADVANTAGE, I'LL JUST LIE QUIETLY, WAITING FOR A CHANCE TO BITE ... BUT, THIS MIGHT TURN OUT TO BE MORE CONVENIENT!' Gon stands over it and declares 'DESTROY THE HEAD COMPLETELY.' He drives the blade through the skull with a sharp 'SAA' and 'PUSHAN', the creature's breath stopping as the sword penetrates. A narration box warns that even if the body and head are separated, these things have enough life-energy to come back to life in a day.

Killua and Gon stand side by side, watching intently. A tall, long-haired figure in a beret and dark outfit holds a large handgun at their side, smoke curling from the barrel. A small character in a hat waves a sign marked with a large '4' while speech bubbles instruct 'WHEN YOU DO IT,' 'AND PUT IT IN MORE GENERAL TERMS,' 'AND AS SILENTLY AS POSSIBLE,' and 'DO IT AS FAST.' A body lies crumpled on the ground nearby. Bold text at the bottom declares 'THE "INSTANT KILLER" HUNTER!! HIS STRENGTH IS ALMOST UNFATHOMABLE!!'

A plain white page titled 'NOTES:' at the top. Three translator notes follow. The first note states that on page 1 the white text indicates the Hunter x Hunter anime is re-airing on TV in Japan. The second note explains a wordplay on page 4 where 'KAKAKA' uses the kanji for mosquito instead of laughter, creating a mosquito-like laugh. The third note clarifies that Pochi and Koro are stereotypical Japanese dog names.
