Chapter 354 summary
Hisoka's initial blind-spot strike with Bungee Gum fails to finish Chrollo, who escapes into the crowd and begins mass-producing stamped puppets with Gallery Fake. Hisoka deduces Chrollo's likely next moves involving Convert Hands and Black Voice, then uses Floor Gum on the fleeing audience to force a confrontation. The exchange escalates with Chrollo creating a controlled copy, leading Hisoka to invoke Sun and Moon on the marked puppets that will not disappear until they explode.
