The chapter title is 月光 Gekkou, which means "Moonlight".

Rongi admits to them that she can use Nen, but says the snake construct is not hers. She's here to prove that and explain her reason for coming. Her Nen ability is 透明言葉 Gekkou Shorei, which translates to "Transparent Words". Even though Gekkou is not how you would ever read 透明, it's a pun to tie into the chapter title. She's being transparent and putting her cards on the table, the moonlight shining on things, making them visible. You get it. Anyway, her ability is a Manipulation type. It's basically a contract ability. By having someone sign a contract with a time limit, she can do things like lend her ability to the person or restrict their actions/movements.

She wants Kurapika to enter a partnership contract with Tsupeppa, the fifth prince. Tsupeppa doesn't know she's even a Nen user, and this is just a step in her real plan. It turns out she is Beyond's daughter.

Thirty years ago, Beyond got male soldiers into fake marriages with chicks, and then the chicks got pregnant. It sounds like the couples were true believers in Beyond's goals and ideals, which is why they went along with it. He repeated this every time a new prince was born. There must be so many kids of Beyond in Kakin. They all entered the royal military school, probably to bring up a new king. They all had Nen from the day they were born. Beyond placed a Nen curse on them all, and they all have a mark on their bodies. Some evil Nen will activate when they die. They're basically on some MK Ultra hidden switch suicide bomber assassin type thing.

Rongi thinks the targets are the princes. One of the princes is Beyond's kid, so he's gonna kill the others. She wants to stop Beyond and kill the prince that is his son. The contract with Kurapika is a peace treaty with Tsupeppa and Wopple. Breaking it will leave them in Zetsu for a week.

Also, it's heavily implied that Nasubi knows. The condition for the Succession War is "being the child of Nasubi Hoikoro's legal wife," not Nasubi's child. So that wording might be intentional, and Nasubi knows what's up and is in on the shenanigans with Beyond.

The chapter ends with Beyond asking to have someone brought to him because he wants to talk to them.

Funny how the #1 complaint this arc has been nobody wants to hear some random guard's dialogue

Turns out half those randos are Netero's grandkids :milaugh:
Who's complaining about that? :tch:




Honestly, i would't mind if all of the rest of the chapters were like the Rihan chapters. A random guard standing around and analyzing nen abilities and nen beasts. And walls of text after text.

Sign me up :amazing:

I just hope the expedition arc will be relevant to what will happen in the dark continent.
It will definitely be. With this new chapter reveal of Beyond messing in the contest, it's guaranteed to have relevance in Dark Continent.

And who ever survives the boat ride, will do so by getting stronger as a result of the contest. So their ability to deal with the Dark continent will also be a result of the contest.

Wouldn't it be in the contrary - united exploring such a dangerous place better rather than cripling each other out not sure how this ties with the dark continent

I think the Succession War will facilitate an alliance that will allow them to survive on the Dark Continent. Were this royal war to not take place, certain characters might have never met, thus unintentionally crippling the expedition's chances of survival.

As the user above me said, the monsters like Tserriednich and Halkenburg etc would never have even known about nen were it not for the contest. A lot of servants are also getting taught nen from Kurapika-sensei. At a faster rate too.


There was never going to be any unity in the Dark Continent lol. Every faction is out for themselves. It will be utter Chaos when we get there in like 10 years. It is going to be glorious :steef:

So what is the point of this arc when this infighting could have been done once they arrive to their destination anyway we have been in a boat forever.

We don't know the true nature of the succession contest.

There's some mysterious shit going on. There's theories that the entire boat and it's 200,000 people are a sacrifice in a ritual for the Kakin empire

Beyond probably has some part in this as well.

Check out this thread

But that's all in world. The meta reason for the boat arc is to end several storylines of several important characters.

Like the Spiders, Kurapika and Hisoka all have been hinted/implied by togashi to be fated to die in the succession battle and it's aftermaths.



Also, all that infighting couldn't have been done on the Dark continent. It's a place where people barely survive at all. taking weak people there just increases the danger of getting possessed by one of the calamities and wiping out the whole group.
