In this episode, titled "The Strong X And X The Weak," the focus shifts back to the Phantom Troupe, specifically on two members: Uvogin, the physically strongest member, and Pakunoda, who possesses the power to read memories through physical touch.

Uvogin is excited to take on the challenge of fighting the strongest fighters in the world, but the rest of the Phantom Troupe knows that his hubris may be his downfall. They caution him, but he is determined to prove himself.

Meanwhile, Kurapika has made his way to the location of the Phantom Troupe, but is hesitant to make his move. He knows that if he reveals himself too soon, they will be on high alert and may escape.

As the battle rages on, Uvogin taunts Kurapika, saying that he will never be able to defeat the Phantom Troupe. However, Kurapika is determined and channels all of his rage and hatred towards the Phantom Troupe into his Nen ability. He lands a powerful blow on Uvogin that cripples him. Kurapika then uses his chains to extract information from Uvogin about the location of the rest of the Phantom Troupe.
