Keep on living just the way you are.
This match is over!
Man, he looks like he wants to keep on fighting.
Just getting even with Hisoka is good enough, you know.
He doesn't know his own limit.
And we end up being the ones who worry about him.
Anyway, I think I'll try out my Nen in a match.
The decision was fair, and I stand behind it.
I felt it was in the best interest of both contestants
to have a match that didn't run too long, even if that meant lowering the scoring criteria.
That guy's obviously a technical judge.
What do you mean?
If they think the match is going to be extremely violent,
they award points faster to get it over with.
Really? I'll have to remember that next time I place a bet.
Hisoka hurried off before we had a chance to interview him.
But it's a good thing we had a chance to hear what the referee had to say.
You see it?
Yeah.
Now back to the studio.
That rookie seems to have gotten a lot better in a short period of time.
He gave Hisoka a pretty good fight.
You think so?
From what I saw, he hasn't changed much.
It seemed to me that Hisoka wasn't all that into fighting a kid.
He hardly tapped into his full Nen ability.
You know how he is.
He was probably just trying to put on a good show for the audience.
That match shouldn't have lasted more than three seconds.
I have to agree with you.
Gido's actually fought against the kid, so he should know.
Sadaso...
Don't tell me you're scared of a little boy.
I'm just being cautious.
That's how I've managed to survive this long.
It doesn't matter who my opponent is.
Being cautious is one thing,
but you have to be careful not to miss out on an easy win.
Our goal is to become Floor Masters.
Then we can give lectures, become advisers,
have our own martial arts school, and live in the lap of luxury.
We're almost there.
Before you know it, we'll all be Floor Masters.
To make it happen...
We have to be patient and only fight matches we know we can win,
using any means necessary.
Right?
"Any means necessary," huh?
Just playing it safe.
This is Killua's first match since arriving on the 200th floor.
I can hardly wait to watch him in action.
Will this match be as exciting as the last one?
Here we go, folks!
Ready?! Begin!
That was close!
Killua dodged Dorado's strike by a whisker,
but his shirt got ripped!
He's extending the reach of his spear by infusing it with Nen.
Yes. Dorado possesses the Nen abilities of a Transmuter and a Conjurer.
It's gonna be hard for Killua to get close enough to hit him!
That's true.
Killua is just standing still! He's in big trouble!
What a move!
A... A direct hit!
It's okay... His Ten is still strong.
He was able to withstand it.
Dorado attacks! But Killua's not moving!
He's in trouble!
Dorado takes a swing and...
Dorado has been KO'd! The winner is Killua!
Unbelievable!
Killua takes the match in a flash, even on the 200th floor!
A stretcher...
Yeah, we need a stretcher stat!
Gon! Killua's amazing! He's strong!
He's a genius! Both of you are so strong!
I don't know about me, but Killua sure is.
He was strong to begin with,
but now that he knows Nen, he probably is as strong as any Floor Master.
You're a genius, Killua!
You were so great!
No, I wasn't.
That finishing move was perfect!
I did win, but the match itself was disappointing.
It was nothing compared to the fight between Gon and Hisoka.
True... Gon's match was significantly a good one.
Well...
Fighting against Hisoka made me realize that his incredible Nen abilities
are only a small part of what makes him such a threat.
A lot of it has to do with his unique fighting style and how he uses it.
Unless I can figure out how to use Nen my way,
I'm no use in real battles.
I don't have any idea what it might be,
but still I went right ahead and challenged him to a fight,
which wasn't very smart.
If Hisoka had fought as hard as he could then I would've been...
The fact that you learned something
means it was a worthwhile experience.
Sometimes you learn more by losing than you do by winning.
Now Gon, I want you to forget about fighting
and concentrate on resting and recuperating for at least the next month.
Instead of gaining experience in the ring,
you can think of how you will develop your Nen ability.
Mental conditioning is an integral part of your training.
Osu!
Killua...
Can I talk to you for a second? Maybe while watching the sun set?
Uh, okay.
Killua, I wanted to talk about...
About the Nen I used at the end, right?
I didn't mean to use it.
I know.
The match today made me realize that I'm a lot different than Gon or Zushi.
It was also different from what you taught us.
Maybe I'm not good enough to study Shingen Ryu.
Shingen Ryu doesn't exclude people for who they are.
You're not required to conform to our style,
and there are no rules for how you apply it.
You wanted to learn Nen.
You asked me to teach you, and I agreed to do so.
As long as you're still willing to learn, I'm willing to teach you.
Discover your own path, and live your life the way you want.
Trying to conform to others too much can limit your potential.
It goes for following your older brother's footsteps too.
Your life is what you make of it.
Master Wing...
I still don't know which path to take,
but what I do know is that I really like training with them.
So I think I'm gonna stick around for a little while longer.
Okay.
Zushi, you're aiming for the top floor, right?
Osu!
At the rate you're going, it'll take you forever to get there.
I don't care how long it takes. I'll continue training hard with my master.
And hanging out with you guys has totally motivated me!
All right!
Let's go to my room and practice.
Osu!
Killua...
Zushi!
Osu.
We've got company.
You never give up, do you?
People won't like you if you don't change your ways, you know.
Aw, don't be like that.
Just tell us when you wanna fight.
We wanna fight you.
Who are they?
They're all fighters from the 200th floor,
just like me and Killua.
You had a match against the guy in the middle, huh?
They're like hyenas. They go after rookies to get easy wins.
That's why they want to fight us.
We really can't wait any longer, you know.
Our application deadline is coming up soon.
Come on, let's fight.
If you want, I'll show you my abilities right here.
My teacher told me I should rest for a while, so...
Who cares?
My application deadline is June 15th, why don't we fight then?
Loser.
We don't care about your deadlines.
Let's go.
Hey, Little Gon! I am going to fight you.
Wait and see.
I think I'm getting used to it.
Yeah, our timing for switching from Ren to Ten and Zetsu
could still use a little work, though.
A little?!
They're such quick learners!
It took me weeks to learn that timing!
But compared to Zushi's aura, I think we're not powerful enough.
Well, then maybe we should practice focusing on that.
No, that's enough training for one day! You both just had matches!
Resting properly is part of your training too!
Yeah, but we're not tired yet.
No!
I don't want them to show me up anymore.
Or else, I'll feel more miserable...
Guess I'll see you in the morning.
Good night!
Osu!
Here we go.
My feet?! My body...
I can't talk, can't even... breathe.
What's happening?
Oops.
Just stop it.
You don't have to resort to such an old and dirty trick.
I'll fight you.
When was it again?
Don't worry. I'll let you win.
If you want, I could even lose once to each of you.
Are you happy now?
Gon was told to take a break for the next month by our teacher.
So he can't fight without permission.
He already broke his promise once.
If he does it again, he may stop training under him,
even if Wing lets him continue...
And that's a problem.
So if you want a match with Gon, you'll just have to wait at least a month.
After that, I'm sure he'd have no problem fighting you.
Okay.
Then why don't we make it official by going to the registration desk right now?
Once we've signed up, you can have your friend back, unharmed.
Yeah, fine by me.
But this is the first and last time we cut a deal.
June 15th, right?
This okay with you?
Yeah. You can take him back now.
There.
Oh yeah, just remember. No more deals.
If you break the promise...
I'll uh... well, you'll see.
What? You're not gonna tell us?
Hi, Gon?
Take a look outside your door. You'll see what's going on.
What'll happen if we break the promise?
There's no point in telling you now.
Just don't do it, that's all.
Not a word of this to anyone.
Just do what I say, and by tomorrow,
the three of you will be training together again.
Just listen to what I say.
Zushi.
I didn't know it was so hard to not kill people.
Being normal sure isn't easy.
Huh? Did he leave already?
Who needs tickets?! We've got them right here!
It's Gon versus Sadaso!
You don't wanna miss this one!
Hey, I'll take one!
Yeah, me too!
Hey, one for me too.
All right, thank you!
What can you tell me about Sadaso?
He's got this creepy face, it's like he's wearing a mask.
He's also known as the "Rookie Hunter."
Damn that guy.
What's wrong?
It's Killua.
He's a fighter from the 200th floor.
Right. He's supposed to fight Sadaso before Gon, right?
What's his problem?
He doesn't even know his next opponent?
He's just a kid. There's no way he's gonna win.
Oh yeah? Well, I bet 50,000 he wins his next match.
Osu!
Hey, I heard that you helped Zushi out last night.
It was nothing.
How are you doing?
I'm feeling just fine, thanks!
I guess I was even more tired than I thought.
You were the one who found him, right, Killua?
Yeah. Just after you guys left my room yesterday, I got a weird phone call.
Someone told me that my friend was asleep in the arena, so I went out to see if it was true.
That's when I found you and brought you back here.
Thanks for being concerned about me. I'm all better now. Osu!
Thank you both for looking after Zushi.
Thanks to you guys, he's doing fine. I'm very grateful.
Well, we invited him to train with us, so he was sort of our responsibility.
What're you all worried about?
Why does everyone treat me like a little kid?!
Sorry, sorry.
Anyway, Master Wing...
Your next match, right?
Gon was asking me for permission to do the same.
What date's yours?
June 15th. My birthday.
Fine by me.
But I want you to rest up and heal as much as possible until then
so you'll be in peak physical condition for the match.
Killua.
Those guys blackmailed you too, huh?
That makes me so mad.
Yeah.
What would we have done if Master Wing hadn't given us permission to fight?
That was never gonna happen, because he knows all about it.
Huh? He does?!
Yeah.
Really...
Well, I don't wanna lose on purpose...
But I guess I can do it.
No way.
But what if they go after Zushi again?
Don't worry...
Don't worry about a thing.
All right then...
It's time to get to it.
The match we're featuring today is between Killua and Sadaso.
Killua won his first fight on the 200th floor just five days ago.
Meanwhile, Sadaso has put together a record of five wins.
Star Rookie Killua versus Rookie Hunter Sadaso,
a match you can't afford to miss, is about to begin!
With Killua and Gon lined up,
I'll have my sixth and seventh victories in the bag.
After this, all I have to do is beat three more chump rookies.
As soon as I become a Floor Master, I'll be set for the rest of my life.
Don't move.
If you do, I'll kill you.
Use Nen, and I'll kill you.
Make a sound, and I'll kill you. If you understand, close your eyes.
Let me demonstrate what'll happen if you break the promise.
Okay, slowly open your eyes. Look at me in the mirror.
Listen carefully.
You will never show your ugly face around here again.
That's a promise.
The match was supposed to have started already, but Killua's opponent hasn't shown up.
Yeah...
Uh, I've just received a note here...
Apparently, Sadaso isn't in his dressing room.
Also, it appears as though his private residence has been cleared out,
and his luggage and personal belongings are all gone.
So I guess that means...
Time violation!
According to regulations, Sadaso has forfeited the match.
The winner is Killua!
Forfeit?!
What an astonishing turn of events!
Killua gets his second victory without having to fight!
A forfeit?
Yeah, but it's still a victory!
It's a different strategy: winning without fighting!
Way to go Killua!
Killua took off his cap and tossed it high into the air to celebrate his win!
Sadaso! What's going on?!
His eyes belong to those who live in the underground world.
When he looked at me,
he made me realize how weak I was and that I was his prey.
I don't have a death wish, so I'm getting out of here.
We've only known each other for a short time,
but you always looked out for me, so I want to give you a piece of advice...
Be careful. He's coming for you next.
See ya.
Now what?
We do what we have to.
We beat the kid and it doesn't matter how.
We knew there were gonna be risks, but that's never stopped us...
We're so close.
Just a little bit more...
Then we'll be Floor Masters and have everything.
But it takes a lot to scare Sadaso like that.
Yeah, but he threatened Sadaso.
Not me. I bet he's afraid of my unknown abilities.
Wrong.
It doesn't really matter what kind of abilities you have.
I just thought I could warn you wherever and whenever.
It could happen anytime, anywhere.
While you're asleep, or when you're eating,
or even while you're sitting on the toilet.
So just remember...
Stick to the rules.
If it becomes "anything goes," we'll be the ones to benefit.
You shouldn't do bad things to people.
We'll fight him fair and square.
Killua!
Way to go!
Let's go celebrate my second win! Your treat!
Okay! Let's go for ramen rice then!
Are you kidding me?!
Our training is going great!
I think we're getting stronger everyday!
Next time on Hunter x Hunter:
Small Fry x Clean Up x Exam Over?!
So long, Heavens Arena!
