Hunter x Hunter 404 Preview: Prince Benjamins Fall

As a seasoned anime enthusiast who’s been following Hunter x Hunter since its inception, I can’t help but feel a mix of anticipation and concern as the story unfolds. The plot twist with Luzurus being suspected for Fugetsu’s state is intriguing, to say the least. It seems our dear Kacho has put his detective skills to good use, and now he’s got this hunch about Luzurus dealing drugs and having a guardian nen spirit beast – quite the mafioso, if you ask me!

This article contains spoilers for the Hunter x Hunter manga.

The captivating series, Hunter x Hunter, has consistently held its ground with each successive week, and given the current narrative progression, it seems set to maintain this momentum for a while longer. Readers are eagerly anticipating the publication of chapter 404 following the thrilling three chapters that have been released thus far.

In this current scenario, the Succession War storyline has gained significant popularity among fans, and it’s reaching a boiling point. However, the conflict doesn’t necessarily have to culminate in all-out carnage. Instead, Kurapika is striving to find a means to minimize casualties as much as possible.

Halkenburg Causes Benjamin’s Downfall in HxH Chapter 404

Benjamin and His Men Underestimated Halkenburg

In the world of Hunter x Hunter, I found myself stepping into the shoes of Balsamilco Might in episode 403. My mission was to take out the 9th Prince Halkenburg during his trial, but little did I know that fate had other plans. As I moved closer, a sudden twist unfolded – instead of eliminating him, it was me who fell.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but ponder the potential directions Halkenburg might take in the forthcoming chapters. Primarily, he needs to persuade Benjamin that Might has accomplished the mission and eliminated him. This crucial step could set Halkenburg on one of two paths: either he will stage his demise, or he will actually part ways with his original form.

In order to set the shot at a 26-degree angle, I should move about 60 centimeters forward. (In the tale of) The Archer: Grimmel the Discordant, FIRE! – Halkenburg’s Positioning

At this point, it’s unclear whether Halkenburg can utilize his Nen power from within another person’s body. If he does have that ability, an intriguing possibility arises: instead of returning to his own body, Halkenburg might aim to take control of Prince Benjamin’s body as part of a grand scheme.

Should Halkenburg decide to reclaim his initial form, it’s likely that he might opt for Might and the Silent Killer as his weapons of choice against Benjamin. This move could potentially remove one of the most powerful figures in the Succession War.

Benjamin Might Make Use of Martial Law in HxH Chapter 404

Martial Law Would Shake the Succession War

In the ongoing struggle for succession, Prince Benjamin stands out as a significant danger due to his lofty position, considerable military might, and strong influence.

In the latest sections of HxH, there’s been discussion about Martial Law. Given Togashi’s subtle hints, it seems plausible that Benjamin might take advantage of this situation.

Under Martial Law, Benjamin would gain complete authority, effectively handing control over to the military. Such a move would empower him to act against his own kin, an unprecedented move that could plunge the Black Whale into turmoil. Benjamin has hinted to Halkenburg, while in Might’s body, that he may institute Martial Law if Might decides to depart without dealing with Halkenburg first. Therefore, the repercussions of this situation will likely become apparent in HxH Chapter 4 very soon, as Halkenburg sets his plan into motion.

Zhang Lei’s Nen Beast Ability Revealed

Kurapika Might Unravel the Secret of this Nen Beast

Among the Kakin princes, Zhang Lei stands out as the third in line, and he’s been quite captivating so far. There’s a strong possibility that Zhang Lei will form an alliance with Woble and Prince Tubeppa in the near future. This is because they’ve made a promise to him: If they retain their positions, they will grant him the throne.

In simple terms, Zhang Lei possesses an enigmatic creature known as a Nen beast, and we’re yet to discover its full potential. Readers have witnessed numerous chapters of Zhang Lei pondering the possible applications for the coins his Nen beast occasionally drops. These coins accumulate value over time.

Earlier, Zhang Lei expressed his desire to reach out to Kurapika for additional insights. Given Kurapika’s extensive experience with Nen, he could potentially solve the mystery. Fans have proposed several theories about the Nen beast, and it seems we might learn the truth soon.

One potential scenario is that this talent operates similarly to a loan. Zhang Lei distributes these coins, and as their quantity grows, they can be returned to the monster’s mouth, potentially boosting Zhang Lei’s influence. The higher the value on the coin, the greater the power he acquires.

Placing a coin into the coin receptacle of the Nen beast might similarly imbue the doer with a Nen capability. It’s worth noting that this ability to bestow Nen upon others isn’t unheard of, making it a feasible scenario.

Zhang Lei thinks that this skill won’t prove particularly valuable until he ascends to the throne. Consequently, in the heat of battle, he may need to lean heavily on Kurapika and his team to help him achieve the kingship.

Luzurus is Killed by Melody and her Group

Luzurus is Believed to be the cause of Fugetsu’s state

I’m deeply concerned about Fugetsu’s current state; it seems to be worsening day by day. This has sparked a plan among the Nen beast (in Kacho’s form), Melody, and Kaiser. They believe that the culprit behind Fugetsu’s condition is none other than the 7th Prince Luzurus, and they are determined to take action against him.

The scheme to take down Luzurus is about to be set in motion; as Kacho mentioned, they will act on it the following night. Luzurus has a reputation for drug-related activities, and the wound on Fugetsu’s back is thought to have been inflicted by his Nen beast, something he can’t control directly even if he desires to do so.

To date, it’s merely speculation that Luzurus is responsible for Fugetsu’s condition, as no definitive proof has been found. However, prior to executing their plan to eliminate Luzurus, unexpected evidence might surface regarding the cause of Fugetsu’s state. This new information could potentially disrupt the group’s intention to target Luzurus.

It appears that there’s some indication that Luzurus isn’t the one causing what’s happening to Fugetsu, and this might be due to the laws that Nen beasts follow. Fans may already be aware that Nen beasts can’t directly attack other Nen beasts or someone controlled by one. Since Fugetsu is a prince and possesses a Nen beast, Luzurus’s Nen beast theoretically shouldn’t be able to hurt her unless setting up a trap doesn’t violate the rule about causing immediate harm, which seems unlikely.

The team could potentially eliminate Luzurus without realizing his innocence, which would significantly worsen Fugetsu’s situation. If such actions persist, Fugetsu may soon become another fallen prince, a reality the team must strive to prevent.
