HEAD

Hisoka's face twists in a fierce grimace, eyes narrowed and teeth bared as motion lines streak across the panel. A close-up follows of his intense eyes and swirling hair. Below, a bandaged hand clenches tightly with sharp motion lines erupting around it as the word CONTRACT appears in bold letters. Chrollo stands over the fallen Hisoka, gripping his book while Hisoka lies sprawled on the ground with arms outstretched and legs splayed, surrounded by jagged spikes and impact lines. Hisoka's eyes are wide and fixed upward.

Chrollo leaps forward with his book raised, surrounded by motion lines and impact effects. Hisoka remains on the ground but twists his body, reaching upward. In the foreground Chrollo stands in a wide stance holding his book, while Hisoka is shown being grabbed or lifted slightly, his face contorted. Speech bubbles appear near them. The crowd reacts wildly below with multiple shocked faces and pointing fingers. Large text boxes detail the chaos in the arena.

Hisoka lunges forward with explosive force, his muscular frame twisting as he clamps one hand around the head of a cube-headed opponent. The victim's face is locked in shock, eyes wide and mouth open. In the background, several figures point and react with alarm. Motion lines and impact symbols streak across the panel. Below, the scene shifts to a close profile of Hisoka's determined face streaked with sweat and a small cut, while a short-haired fighter is hurled backward amid a massive burst of debris and speed lines, body contorted by the force of the blow.

Hisoka continues his assault in a flurry of strikes. In the top left he drives a powerful punch into a cluster of opponents, sending bodies flying amid heavy impact symbols. The top right panel shows him leaping through the air, body extended, shattering multiple figures with a devastating kick as radial speed lines explode outward. Below, he lands and delivers a sweeping blow that sends another opponent tumbling. In the lower left a short-haired boy stares in shock, mouth open, while Hisoka's silhouette appears behind him. The bottom right closes on Hisoka's intense eye and furrowed brow in close-up, conveying focused aggression.

Hisoka's battered face, marked with a star and teardrop, stares forward with a grim expression. Beside him, Chrollo watches with a focused, unreadable gaze under his headband. In a sweeping motion, Chrollo lunges through the air amid a storm of flying figures and debris, his long hair whipping as he reaches out. Hisoka's voice cuts through the chaos in a thought bubble: "HE GOT AWAY..." Below, the floor cracks violently as Chrollo lands amid a scattered crowd of fighters and bystanders, some recoiling in shock. In a narrow side panel, a small figure vanishes into the mass of people while the narration states "HE DISAPPEARED BACK INTO THE CROWD AGAIN....."

Chrollo's thoughts count down rapidly: "2...", "3...", "JUST 5 MORE OF THEM...", "AND WITH HIS BOOKMARK AFFIXED ON GALLERY FAKE, HE'D BE FREE TO MASS PRODUCE MORE COPIES...", "IF I DESTROY EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE, HE WON'T NEED TO MAINTAIN THE 'STAMP' ANYMORE...", "DEFINITELY NOT A LOOP I WANT TO GET STUCK IN." Hisoka appears in close-up with intense motion lines. In the final panel, Hisoka grapples Chrollo from behind, both locked in a violent struggle amid flying debris and impact effects.

Hisoka stares intently, sweat beading as he analyzes Chrollo's next move. 'WILL LIKELY BE...' 'HIS NEXT MOVE...' he thinks. A large speech bubble declares, 'AS LONG AS THE STAMP ON THIS GUY HASN'T DISAPPEARED, THAT LIMITS CHROLLO'S POSSIBLE ACTIONS...!' Hisoka lists Chrollo's options in detail: without dispelling the stamp he will give new orders to standby puppets; he may dispel it and create more copies with Gallery Fake, then either use the stamp for new orders or transform with Convert Hands to blend into the crowd. Below, the arena floor is littered with fallen bodies. Hisoka concludes that Chrollo will likely choose option (2), transform, steal clothes, and continue chipping away at his stamina. In the bottom panel Hisoka's eyes widen as he realizes, 'SO HE'S GONE WITH OPTION (2)...!' 'THE "ORDER STAMP" ON HIS FOREHEAD JUST VANISHED...!' while nearby figures react with surprise. SFX: FWSSSSSHHH

Close-ups show Hisoka's intense eyes shifting as he thinks. 'FINDING CHROLLO IN THIS CROWD AFTER HE'S TURNED INTO SOMEONE ELSE WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT...' he notes. He considers that if Chrollo uses option (B) and Convert Hands while making copies, the moment is dangerous. Since Chrollo still holds the Gallery Fake bookmark, he can activate it without the book visible. Hisoka worries Chrollo will cause a scene and create many copies, risking discovery. While Chrollo makes copies, Hisoka decides he must stay on the move. A bold bubble states, 'I'VE GOT TO FIND HIM...!!' 'WHERE ARE YOU...?!' Hisoka turns, hair flowing, declaring, 'WE'RE WAITING ON STANDBY!!' He reasons that Chrollo would be where the previous copy puppets are located. Small panels show audience members watching the arena.

Hisoka stares upward with a focused expression, sweat visible on his face beneath the striped beanie. Chrollo Lucilfer appears in close-up, star mark on his cheek and a drop of sweat trailing down, his eyes narrowed in concentration. In the vast arena stands, countless copy puppets lie scattered across the seating as Chrollo directs them. Text explains his tactic: he places stamps on previous copy puppets so that he can create new puppets while moving. Hisoka suddenly bursts forward in the lower panel, charging across the arena floor with arms extended and motion lines trailing. Chrollo stands ready in the background amid the panicked crowd, some spectators already reacting with open mouths and raised hands. Dynamic speed lines and impact effects fill the scene as the puppets remain motionless in the stands.

Explosive impact SFX erupt as Hisoka is hurled backward through the air, limbs flailing. Chrollo Lucilfer appears in a powerful leaping pose, arm raised, his muscular form dominating the panel with radiating speed lines. A dense crowd of puppets fills one panel, many marked with visible 'SSS' stamps on their bodies. Spectators in the stands scream in terror, mouths open wide with cries of 'YAAAAA AAAA AAAA GGGG GGH!' and 'UWA AAAA AH!!'. Chrollo is shown again in close-up, star mark prominent, with a speech bubble stating 'BUT WHAT IF...'. Smaller panels capture Hisoka landing amid the panicked audience, some people recoiling while others shout 'HYA AAA AH!' and 'WOO OOO HH!'. Motion lines and impact effects emphasize the sudden violence and crowd reaction.

Hisoka lies on the ground, sweat on his face, analyzing the situation. 'AS HE PROBABLY WANTS TO AVOID FIGHTING UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. I CAN'T GO CHARGING IN CARELESSLY... BUT IF MY ASSUMPTION IS RIGHT, THEN RIGHT NOW CHROLLO WILL BE FULLY ON THE DEFENSIVE...' A wide view shows the panicked audience fleeing in all directions across the stands. 'THEN THAT MEANS HE'D BE HOLDING A CELLPHONE AND ANTENNA IN HIS LEFT HAND THAT HE HAS HIDDEN...!! WHAT IF INSIDE HIS CLOTHES, CHROLLO HAS HIS BOOK OPEN NOT TO THE PAGE WITH "ORDER STAMP" ON IT, NOR TO THE PAGE WITH "CONVERT HANDS" BUT TO THE PAGE WITH "BLACK VOICE"...' Hisoka's eyes narrow. 'THREW A MONKEY WRENCH INTO HIS PLANS...? DOES THAT MEAN MY COUNTER-ATTACK...' He rises with a fierce expression, hair whipping around him. 'I DON'T NEED TO HOLD BACK AT ALL !!!!' In a blur of motion, Hisoka launches forward, stretching an arm while a muscular figure with a heart emblem on his chest is also propelled through the air. 'YES... THAT'S IT... THAT WAY...'

Against a black background, Hisoka appears mid-air with a wild grin, fist extended. 'CONTRACT ...!! BUNGEE GUM...' Below, the technique activates in a massive radial burst. Multiple audience members are yanked violently toward the center as Hisoka shouts 'RELEASE !!!' while the words 'FLOOR GUM' appear near the stretching gum on the ground. Bodies tumble and collide in the powerful pull. The final panel shows a close-up of a dark-haired young man in a cap with wide, shocked eyes and an open mouth, reacting to the sudden event.

Hisoka stands amid the chaos, a small heart icon pulsing beside him as he thinks, 'THE CROWD BUILDS UP POTENTIAL ENERGY FOR ME, ALL ON THEIR OWN...' Two figures in the fleeing crowd shout in panic: 'NO WAY, JOSE!!' and 'HOLD IT, BUB!' Hisoka's voice narrates his plan: 'BY ATTACHING ONE END OF MY BUNGEE GUM TO THE BACKS OF THE FLEEING CROWD AND THE OTHER TO THE FLOOR...' An arrow points as someone yells 'RUN AWAAAAY!!!' A massive impact erupts across the arena floor. Hisoka launches forward with the crowd, bodies flung violently in every direction amid huge black SFX 'ドドドド'. Debris and motion lines fill the air as spectators are hurled like projectiles. In the lower panel Hisoka soars above the panicked audience, arms outstretched, while the crowd below scatters and falls in terror.

A massive circular aura blast erupts on the left while Hisoka is hurled backward, star-marked face twisted in pain, blood trailing from his mouth. Chrollo, wearing a striped beanie and dark outfit, leaps through the air with claws extended toward the blast. Close-up panels show Chrollo's intense expression and a small inset of a shocked eye. Below, Hisoka lands in a low stance, sweat drop visible, calmly stating 'I'M JUST GETTING THE TRASH OUT OF THE WAY' with a heart symbol. Speech bubbles read 'NOT AT ALL' and 'HISOKA HAS JUST LET A PERFECT CHANCE SLIP THROUGH HIS FINGERS...!!!' Another bubble questions 'WHAT'S THIS, HE'S MISSED ...?!' as Chrollo is shown mid-leap again. Hisoka's fingers are highlighted in the final inset.

Hisoka's face fills the left side of the page, star mark visible on his cheek, eyes narrowed in focus. He recalls sending the crowd flying at his opponent. In the center, Hisoka leaps dynamically with one arm raised and the other extended, declaring he already had something attached. Massive impact lettering erupts around him as he activates his technique. A glowing fist bursts forward with the word CONTRACT!! in a radiant circle. Below, Chrollo stares in disbelief, mouth open, reacting to the sudden reversal. Chrollo questions when the attachment happened, sweat visible on his face as the striped beanie and outfit mark his position in the lower right panel.

A hooded figure with striped sleeves and earrings stares upward in shock, mouth open. In the background, Hisoka soars through the air with fist raised, long hair flowing. Massive stylized lettering dominates the center. Below, Chrollo lies injured on the ground, body marked with large X and cross symbols, face showing pain. Hisoka appears again in a close-up, expression focused, hand extended with claw-like fingers. Impact effects and speed lines fill the panels as the fight continues at high intensity.

A massive explosion erupts as Hisoka is hurled backward by a powerful impact, his body twisting through the air amid flying debris and shockwaves. In a close-up, Hisoka's face shows intense focus and strain. Below, a towering figure in a dark outfit clings desperately to a long pole-like weapon embedded in the ground while being lifted high into the air. Another panel reveals a muscular man with light hair wearing a sleeveless top marked with spade and club symbols standing amid swirling smoke and impact lines. The scene shifts to a violent clash where the same muscular man swings a large weapon, striking the dark-clad figure and causing a massive burst of black ink-like energy and shattering debris across the floor.

Hisoka stares in profile with a sweat drop, realizing the opponent used the right hand of Convert Hands to create a Chrollo copy and control it with the book mark affixed. A defeated curly-haired man lies on the ground with X-shaped eyes. Hisoka's hand cracks under pressure as he shouts 'SUN AND MOON'!!. Nearby allies react in shock to the sudden development. In a dramatic close-up, Hisoka declares that the copies marked with the seal won't disappear until they explode, his hair whipping wildly as he points forward with a determined glare.
