Hunter x Hunter 404: What To Expect From The Chapter

Hunter x Hunter 404: What To Expect From The Chapter

As a seasoned Hunter and a man who has seen his fair share of danger, I can’t help but feel a sense of anticipation as I gaze upon the pages of the latest chapter of Hunter x Hunter. The intrigue surrounding Kurapika and the mysterious coins has me hooked, and I can only imagine the storm that’s brewing in the heart of our intrepid protagonist.


This article contains spoilers for the Hunter x Hunter manga.

Key Takeaways

  • Halkenburg may take down Benjamin due to his Nen ability in Might’s body.
  • Zhang Lei seeks Kurapika’s help to understand Nen beast’s power in an upcoming Nen workshop.
  • Luzurus faces an imminent assassination attempt, impacting Fugetsu’s fate in the Succession War.

In the ongoing Succession War of Hunter x Hunter, chapter 404 is shaping up to be an exhilarating read. It’s becoming increasingly possible that some of the Kakin princes may meet their end, which can only intensify the unfolding events in this war.

Nevertheless, even though many challenges persist, there remains a glimmer of optimism, and it’s still plausible to conclude the Succession War with minimal violence.

The Fall of Prince Benjamin in HxH 404

  • Halkenburg Might Take Down Benjamin
  • Benjamin Could Invoke Martial Law

In the grand scheme of princes, Prince Benjamin stands out as the eldest and the most powerful, particularly due to his significant military influence. Yet, despite wielding such authority, Prince Benjamin finds himself in a precarious situation following Balsamilco Might’s actions as portrayed in HxH episode 403. Interestingly, Balsamilco, with limited understanding of Halkenburg’s capabilities, audaciously attempted an assassination. Regrettably for him, the outcome was far from what he expected, and now, Halkenburg has seized control over his body.

Balsamilco is Benjamin’s most reliable advisor who helps him make wise decisions. Now that Halkenburg has taken control of Balsamilco, it means Benjamin may not make the best choices. Benjamin has warned he might impose Martial Law if Balsamilco departs without dealing with Halkenburg first. If Martin Law is declared, it could lead to disastrous consequences and allow Benjamin to execute other princes. To prevent this, Halkenburg will likely do everything in his power to avoid it.

Halkenburg has several options on how to proceed within Might’s body, and it remains uncertain whether his Nen power will function while occupying another person. If Halkenburg is capable of utilizing his ability in this situation, it might potentially enable him to seize control over the first Prince Benjamin’s body.

To get a 26-degree angle for my shot, I should move about 60 centimeters forward – that’s Grimmel the Dissonance’s cue to fire!!

If Halkenburg manages to simulate his genuine demise or eliminates his old self to acquire a new one, this act would absolve Benjamin of any suspicion regarding Might. In such a scenario, Halkenburg in Might’s body could reenter Benjamin’s room and seize control using his Nen ability, Grimmel the Dissonance. This shift would significantly bolster Halkenburg in the Succession War, potentially providing him with sufficient influence to bring an end to it without further bloodshed.

Hunter x Hunter 404: What To Expect From The Chapter

If Halkenburg can’t employ his Nen power through Might’s body, he has an alternative strategy he might exploit against Benjamin in Hunter X Hunter chapter 404. In fact, if Halkenburg manages to convince Benjamin once more that he is deceased, he could reappear before Benjamin disguised as Might. Rather than utilizing his Nen, he would employ TSK-17, the weapon Balsamilco had designed to eliminate him, in this scenario.

This implies that Halkenburg might end up killing Benjamin, some of his men, and possibly Balsamilco as well. This action would make it appear as though he had perished, thus breaking any connections to him, effectively erasing one of the deadliest princes in HxH 404 from suspicion.

A significant challenge Halkenburg might encounter is the enigmatic nature of Benjamin’s Nen Beast, whose power has yet to be unveiled, possibly due to compelling reasons. This revelation may surface in Hunter x Hunter Chapter 404.

The Next Nen Workshop Meeting

Zhang Lei’s Nen Beast Ability Revealed

For several chapters, Prince Zhang Lei – one of the senior princes – has been pondering to discover his Nen beast’s power and the purpose of the coins. On his own and with his men’s suggestions, he hasn’t found a concrete answer. Hence, he intends to consult Kurapika about this. It is likely that one of his men will attend the next Nen gathering in Hunter X Hunter Chapter 404 to meet Kurapika and hopefully solve the enigma surrounding these coins. Given Kurapika’s expertise, an answer should be forthcoming.

As a gamer, I find myself engulfed by this potent aura of Nen, trapping us aboard this ship. It feels like an escape-proof prison, with only death appearing to be an option. However, I’ve learned from my gaming experiences that even the bleakest situations can hold a glimmer of hope. And so, I believe there’s a chance for survival here!

Starting tomorrow, the 12th, I’m eagerly looking forward to the next Nen workshop. As we delve deeper into the sessions, I have an important revelation up my sleeve. I intend to share with everyone present the content of Queen Oito’s letter. Although I’m not entirely sure what secrets this letter holds, it might be information that a higher-ranking prince wouldn’t want disclosed. In HxH 404, there’s a possibility that such a high-ranking prince could cross paths with me, and one potential candidate is the enigmatic Prince Camilla, the second in line.

As a follower, I’m eagerly anticipating the possibility that Kurapika might soon unveil a solution to resolve the succession war without the tragic loss of lives among the princes. This revelation could potentially widen the divide between those who are willing to sacrifice their siblings for power, and those who simply yearn for survival.

The Assassination Attempt on Luzurus Could Come in HxH Chapter 404

Prince Luzurus Will Be Assassinated For Fugetsu’s Sake

Hunter x Hunter 404: What To Expect From The Chapter

On HxH episode 403, no attempt to assassinate the 7th Prince Luzurus was made. Yet, the Nen creature disguised as Kacho promises that they will make an attempt on his life the following night.

In the ongoing Succession War, this event is significant as it marks a long time since one of the princes has perished. Similarly, in Hunter x Hunter episode 404, Fugetsu managed to gain entry into Luzurus’s room, providing access when the operation begins.

On the twelfth night, Melody along with her team, will move Luzurus out of his room to the zone where the lifeboats are stationed. If they can successfully transfer him there and onto a lifeboat, they would be able to launch him into the sea. However, it’s important to note that venturing outside the boundaries of the Succession War is strictly forbidden, as demonstrated by Kacho who met his end trying the exact same maneuver.

From a devoted fan’s perspective: As I follow Luzurus’ drug-related exploits, it seems easy for others to pin the recent events on him and his actions. Yet, there remains a lingering question – is Luzurus truly responsible for Fugetsu’s decline? It’s plausible that his Nen beast isn’t to blame, considering the principles that govern these creatures prevent them from harming other princes.
