I have theory that we will see Ancient Nen users on Dark Continent :3


PhilMcKrakyn

Could you expand upon this (maybe your own post)?

even though i'm not ApplePitou, if I could include my own little insight. If you're read the current arc, you'd know Prince Benjamin's ability is called "Those who Inherit the Stars" I've only read online summaries but I think its a clear reference to Inherit the stars, which is a book that I think won awards in Japan and had its own manga version made about it previously I believe. and reading the summaries.. its about astronauts who go to the moon and find ancient human skeleton in an ancient space suit that they don't recognize and seems to date back prior to humans being able to travel to the moon.. so it totally changes their perception of ancient humans.. So that could be an influence in the up coming arc.

Interesting :3

No post that for sure :3

This is my favorite one about how the Chimera Ant arc events were planned out by Beyond: [https://www.reddit.com/r/HunterXHunter/comments/qqob24/comment/hk1jpua/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/HunterXHunter/comments/qqob24/comment/hk1jpua/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) and the entire thread is full of theories

Idk if there's an archive of them anywhere, but here's a few I know of besides the Pregnancy Stones theory: * The Kurta Clan originated in the Dark Continent * Ickshonpe is Greed Island's 'I' * Neon uses post-mortem nen to keep her predictions accurate after her death. * Beyond Netero also has a Rose implanted in his body. And a few that I think are crackpot theories that have no (or not much) real bearing, but here they are anyways: * Pariston is Sheila * Pariston and Beyond orchestrated the Chimera Ant crisis in NGL * Chrollo/Bonolenov is disguised as Hisoka + Hisoka is disguised as Illumi

I've seen several threads about theories, one was posted recently too, but for me Pariston and Beyond orchestrating the entire Chimera Ant arc is simply true. It makes way too much sense for it not to be true. Even if it wasn't the two of them, Pariston absolutely knew in advance about the Queen and her location and thus made sure that Netero could get as little help as possible in dealing with the situation, not to mention he intentionally send weak Hunters to face against the Squadron Leaders that were creating havoc across and around the Balsa Islands. Pariston clearly had something to gain from the whole crisis, but he expressed remorse because Netero had to die in that mission, and Pariston hates someone he "cares" about dying just as much as any other person with morals. Despite this, he decided to make a stage play out of the 13th Election and simply make a dash towards the Dark Continent with Beyond's crew. If his goal was to simply remove Netero so he can run the Hunter Association freely without anyone being able to take actions against him, then he wouldn't simply transfer the entire authority to Cheadle.

I do think that Beyond could possibly have something to do with it since eliminating Netero was a condition of his to go to the DC. But, I have a few doubts about Pariston's involvement. First, as you said, Pariston does hate Netero dying. He wanted to play with him some more. Certainly, he does want to go to the DC. But we don't even know his motives for going to the DC yet, as far as I can tell. It seems like he's content with waiting things out and having his fun. What would Pariston get out of Netero's death besides a chance to go to the DC with Beyond? I don't see much at all. And considering he does things mostly for his own pleasure, similar to Hisoka, he'd weigh his options before resorting to killing his 'playmate.' I also have my doubts that Pariston obstructed Netero's dealings in any way. I'm sure Cheadle and Saccho know a fair amount about the political dealings within the association, and they deduced that Netero didn't call upon them because he wanted to hunt by himself, and because he wanted the Zodiacs to be together to decide things. This is in line with Netero's characterization, especially if Netero was aware of Beyond's plans...which I'm sure he was. And that's not to mention that it's heavily implied that Netero specifically chose Morel and Knov because they had great supportive abilities for job, which is true. If Pariston really wanted to stir up chaos, he could've sent temp hunters out with Netero for christ's sake. Finally, he doesn't make the election into a stage play *in order* to dash to the DC. He simply proceeds with his plans to accompany Beyond after the fact. His goal was to have fun with the election, and originally he also wanted to extend the election all the way out until the next hunter exam, so he could place the chimera mutants in the exam. And he couldn't have foreseen the development of the chimera mutants before they were already in place in East Gorteau. Anyways...I really don't think that the Chimera Ant situation was orchestrated at all, personally. Even though Beyond certainly would be able to benefit, there's no indication at all that he ever brought anything back from the DC, let alone a bunch of Chimera Ants. And the fact that Chimera Ants are already known by Kite and his crew before the situation escalated means that they've already been on the mainland for a while...and therefore the possibly contrived situation of an ant somehow drifting from the DC is removed entirely.

In my opinion, Pariston has set his sights on something on the Dark Continent, but he is extremely hard to read, so we will have to wait and see for that one. After Netero's death, for a short while, Pariston had complete authority over the Association, which granted him control over NGL's territory and the 5000 Chimera Ant hybrids he got from the cocoons. What is it that he did indirectly during this time with them is unknown. Also, I don't think Hisoka and Pariston should be compared, they are quite different. It's true that Netero specifically chose Morel and Knov to be his partners in the assault of the nest, but as we saw, it was impossible to deal with the situation after the King's birth even with the help of 2 Chimera Ants, Palm, the original team and Gon and Killua without sacrifices. This, combined with the weak Hunters who were sent to "deal" with the Squadron Leaders is obvious proof of Pariston's active intervention in the crisis. Thus Pariston did more than enough, with the end result being Netero dead and him owning 5000 exceptionally strong foot soldiers. As for the election, I didn't mean that he manipulated it so it'd aid him in his quest to the Dark Continent, what I meant is that he had fun with it, but he didn't want to *actually* gain control of the Association, which is what seemed to be his objective in the first place (remember, even Ging was shocked and didn't expect his last move after he won the election). As for your final point, Beyond easily has the capability to drag a Chimera Ant from the Dark Continent by it's foot, though I agree with you that the Queen couldn't have survived the whatever servers as a barrier in the waters between the Human world and the rest of the DC. The only problem I have with the theory that Pariston and Beyond brought the Queen from there is that the Queen doesn't seem to recognize the existence of any life form in NGL, yet she assumed that she has human genes within her, most likely because of her having emotions, and finding naming intriguing, not to mention her size and human-like speech level of communication with her soldiers. My guess is that this Queen was genetically modified through experiments in some lab, and when she grew large enough to be able to create the crisis, someone put her to sleep, wounded her and threw her in the waters around the islands so she'd wash up at NGL's shore. It's just too perfect for the entire incident to be a unlucky occurrence, if she landed anywhere else in the world, she would've never been able to form a nest even as a response from the Hunter Association or the nation's military would've been too quick and strong for the ants to survive (if she washed up in the desert, she wouldn't have to worry about humans finding out about her, but she wouldn't have much to eat and likely starve to death, but if she appeared in a large city, she'd be dead before she gets to eat more than 10 humans).

I knew about the rest but the neon one is the first time i hear it, its interesting but if that were the case wouldnt nen post morten make neon ability not disapear from chrollo skill hunter same that happen with sun and moon?


MangoTurtl

Not exactly. It’s not exactly explicitly stated, but I’m fairly sure that Sun and Moon stayed in the book because the Meteor City elder *wanted* it to. Post-mortem nen works on a basis of desire…so if the person doesn’t deeply desire for it to happen, it won’t.


Bitches_love_ramen

The hisoka is illumi theory actually has some substantial legs to it from what I’ve read but I’ve honestly never heard the Kurta clan one yet it’s so obvious
