How Are the Chimera Ants So Strong?
WouterConsidering that Chimera Ants have a human-like body and ant-like traits, you might wonder how they are so strong. They seem like ferocious carnivores. They also have the ability to see human’s life force aura.
During the 1800s, Chimera Ants began to kill humans. They were eventually reclassified as Magical Beasts by the Hunters Association. However, a few survived.
They developed their own way of using the Nen. The most powerful ability was called the Aura Synthesis. It was used to synthesise the Aura of Meruem. This made him incredibly strong and dangerous. His Aura Synthesis could absorb other Nen users’ Auras and use them.
Chimera Ants also developed their own tactics for using the Nen. Some were organized into feeding squadrons. These squadrons would be armed with webs and other weapons to capture prey. Some Chimera Ants were able to reproduce by copulating with other species.
During the fight, Knuckle, a Chimera Ant Soldier, attacked Cheetu. Cheetu was able to fight well with hand-to-hand combat skills. He was also able to develop Monroe Walk and nen ability.
He was also able to fight against Gon and kill Killua. However, before they met, he lost an arm. He also had the ability to use Rental Pod, a way to use other people’s Nen abilities. He also had a very powerful body and the ability to transform into a crocodile-like creature.
Meruem was the strongest Chimera Ant in the entire series. He was also the King of the Chimera Ants. Despite being strong, he was only able to get stronger after being in a near-death situation.
