Which Spiders Did Hisoka Kill?
It’s true that Hisoka is a ruthless killer and has a bad reputation for hurting people. But did you know that his Nen powers were pretty clever?
The Nen ability which Hisoka uses is a “texture surprise” ability. He can transform his hands into flower petals. The ability is also useful for stopping bleeding. He also has the ability to cloak his fortune with Nen.
The biggest advantage of the Nen ability is his knowledge of his enemies. For example, he knows who can fight with him and who has certain abilities. He can also predict when an enemy will make the most of a particular ability.
During the Yorknew City Arc, Hisoka betrayed the Phantom Troupe. He killed several members, including Gon, Leorio, and Shalnark. He also tried to kill Machi. But Machi saved him. He was then revived by Bungee Gum.
Hisoka also knows the secret of his Nen. This nifty gizmo isn’t used in anime anymore.
Hisoka didn’t actually use it to kill Spiders. Instead, he was able to entice them to try and rob him of his badges. This is the best way for him to get rid of them. Hisoka then proceeds to kill everyone in the Phantom Troupe.
The most impressive trick was not Hisoka’s, though. It was his ambush on Kortopi. He could have sent his head to Chrollo. He also could have tipped off Kurapika that he needed to kill Ubo. But that was a bit overrated.
