In the last chapter, readers witnessed Kaiser, Melody, Kacho, and Fugetsu uniting their strengths to pinpoint a prince they suspect to be the culprit in the Succession War.
However, time is running out as Fugetsu faces the torment of evil spirits. As Hunter x Hunter chapter 403 approaches, the anticipation is high to uncover if their target is indeed the villain they’re seeking.
Chapter 402 Recap
Chapter 402 saw the tenth day of the Succession War unfold with an alliance formed among the third, fifth, and fourteenth princes: Woble, Tubeppa, and Zhang Lei. This alliance stipulated that if they remained the last contenders, Woble and Tubeppa would withdraw, with additional conditions requiring their aides’ presence during negotiations.
Tubeppa, noting Tserriednich’s absence from the banquet, saw it as a refusal to cooperate and devised a plan to divert Benjamin’s guards’ attention to Zhang Lei by informing Benjamin of their new alliance. Despite favorable terms, Zhang Lei remained wary of the surrender clause in the agreement.
A significant revelation was that Balsamilco possessed a weapon capable of inflicting lethal damage within twelve hours without leaving evidence, intended for Halkenburg. On the eleventh day, Tserriednich demonstrated mastery of Zetsu in seconds, maintaining it while multitasking. Salkov, recalling Theta’s account of Tserriednich’s unique Zetsu prowess, speculated about his Nen Beast’s aura release, though he questioned Theta’s reliability.
Earlier, Kacho informed Melody about a mysterious mark on Fugetsu’s back, which Melody suspected was caused by Nen. Melody warned Kacho of a trap set for Fugetsu, suspecting Prince Luzurus’ involvement. They planned for Fugetsu to visit Luzurus’ room with Kaiser’s help, delivering Kacho’s final letters to the princes. This plan succeeded, with Bassho giving Fugetsu a charm for protection against spirits.
