Summary
Hiding in the bushes, still stalking Hisoka, Gon awaits when he can attack. Unbeknownst to Gon, however, Hisoka has found his own prey in Kurapika and Leorio. He runs after Hisoka, torn between what to do: help them or stick to his plan to steal Hisoka's tag. He envisions the two getting taken down and quickly picks the more honorable choice, helping his friends if they need it. Leorio whines to Kurapika about not knowing where his target is when both stop in their tracks. Hisoka greets them, leaning on a tree. He asks for their tags, needing two points, and Leorio quickly refuses. Kurapika figures they must not be his target, so he begins to negotiate. He tells Hisoka the tags he has, but neither are helpful, filling the air with more and more tension.
Gon awaits nearby, eavesdropping on the conversation. Kurapika offers the tag that has no meaning for him, and if that still is not enough, he challenges Hisoka to take the others by force. Leorio also pulls out a knife, ready to fight. Hisoka merely laughs at their feeble threat and accepts the initial deal. Kurapika leaves the tag in a tree and leaves with Leorio. Gon sits frozen behind a tree still, gripping onto his fishing rod and sweating. Hisoka comments to himself he is happy about their progression, but they still have much to learn. Gon sighs in relief, but knows he doesn't have much time left to steal the tag.
Gon becomes anxious from the thought of the next person Hisoka meets not fighting either when suddenly, Hisoka's killing intent drastically increases. It scatters the nearby animals and frightens Gon to no end. Hisoka's bloodlust has risen to a point that must be satisfied. The next day, after Hisoka has awoken from sleeping standing up and hunts his next victim, Gon begins to follow once again. He believes whoever Hisoka runs into
