Gon and Killua are back in Yorknew City to participate in the auction. Meanwhile, Kurapika is trying to track down the Phantom Troupe, a group of notorious thieves who killed his clan. In this episode, the focus is mainly on Gon and Killua as they continue their training to become stronger in order to face powerful opponents.
The episode opens with Gon and Killua, along with Biscuit, their training partner, practicing their Nen abilities in the forest. Biscuit observes their progress and critiques their techniques. She stresses the importance of understanding their own strengths and weaknesses in combat and using Nen to enhance their abilities.
After their training session, Gon and Killua decide to go to the auction with Biscuit. They are still trying to find a way to acquire a rare and powerful card that can help them in battle. At the auction, they bump into some familiar faces, including Leorio and Hisoka. Hisoka invites them to his hotel room and challenges them to a game of darts, which he claims will help them strengthen their Nen abilities.
Meanwhile, Kurapika is on the hunt for the Phantom Troupe. He has managed to track down one of their members and captures him in order to obtain information about the rest of the group. However, things take a dangerous turn when the rest of the Phantom Troupe find out about their comrade's capture. They send a threatening message to Kurapika, warning him to release their member or face the consequences.
Back at the hotel, Gon and Killua are playing darts with Hisoka. The game involves using Nen to enhance their aim and hit the target. Hisoka tests their abilities and gives them some pointers on how to improve. He also reveals that he has a personal interest in strengthening Gon and Killua, as he sees them as potential opponents in the future.
As Kurapika continues his investigation, he receives a surprise visit from someone who claims to have information on the Phantom Troupe's whereabouts. However, this person turns out to be an imposter and leads Kurapika into a trap. He is ambushed by some members of the Phantom Troupe and forced to fight for his life.
Back at the hotel, Gon and Killua are surprised to learn that the card they were interested in has been stolen. Hisoka reveals that he was the one who took it, and he offers to sell it to them for a high price. Gon and Killua are hesitant, but they realize that they need the card in order to become stronger. They agree to Hisoka's terms and purchase the card from him.
The episode ends with Kurapika barely surviving his battle with the Phantom Troupe members. He realizes that he has underestimated their strength and must come up with a new strategy if he hopes to defeat them. Gon, Killua, and Biscuit prepare to leave the hotel, but they are stopped by Hisoka, who reminds them of the promise they made to him. He wants to fight them in the future, and he expects them to be strong enough to give him a challenge.
Overall, this episode focuses on character development and training as Gon and Killua work to become stronger and face their opponents. It also sets up the ongoing conflict between Kurapika and the Phantom Troupe, which will continue to be a major plot point in future episodes. The introduction of Hisoka adds an element of unpredictability and danger, as his true motives and intentions are still unclear.
