The iconic manga Hunter x Hunter has been entertaining readers for decades. Long breaks in the series have occurred on occasion due to author Yoshihiro Togashi’s health issues. Yet, since chapter 391, the manga has been running strong, with new chapters being released every week. Ten chapters after its comeback, at chapter 400, it was widely assumed the manga would once again go on hiatus. However, it has now been revealed that the manga would continue for much longer, albeit with less frequent releases. As of last week’s issue, Hunter x Hunter 399, the Succession Contest storyline and the plot focusing on the Heil-ly, Xi-Yu, and Cha-R families of the Mafia continued.
Once inside Heil-lair, ly’s Hinrigh Biganduffno and Nobunaga were greeted by a sizable contingent of the group’s associates. Even though Hinrigh disguised the Homing Device, the two of them were nevertheless expelled. Even though they’re both safe for the time being, Hunter x Hunter 400 is under a lot of scrutinies because of how quickly things escalated.
The Spiders and Heil-ly in Hunter x Hunter 400
Hinrigh Biganduffno, the mission’s bait, and Nobunaga broke into the Heil-ly Mafia’s lair in Hunter x Hunter #399. However, Phinks and Feitan were already on their way to the hideaway via the transmitter that Hinrigh had given to them. Nobunaga told Hinrigh that he and the other two Spiders would return to the base they had been expelled from to break it down. Possible protagonists for Hunter x Hunter 400 include Nobunaga, Phinks, and Feitan, as they look for the Phantom Troupe’s secret base once more. They need to find it quickly before the oyster reverts to the Homing Device and is discovered by Heil-ly agents; they already know that Hinrigh’s powers are temporary.
When they zero in on a potential site, the trio may decide to search separately, but the transmitter probably means they’ll stay together. It’s possible that once they locate it, they’ll rush in and start acting without consulting Hinrigh or Wang beforehand. Nobunaga has prior knowledge of the skills of at least two Heil-ly members, namely Terebellum and Yokotani. Defeating these two would be less of a task, but many Hunter × Hunter 400 members still exist with skills that are unknown to readers and the Spider. The Spiders are hardly a pushover group, but the three of them should be able to manage them without any help from Morena.
Hinrigh Biganduffno’s Hunt in Hunter x Hunter 400
Hinrigh Biganduffno played a crucial role in the penetration of the Heil-ly stronghold during the events of Hunter x Hunter chapter 399. After all, it was his intention to use himself—as the underboss of Xi-Yu—as bait for the rest of the Phantom Troupe to hunt down the hideout, and it was his strategy that they had taken. After first trying to eat the Homing Device by turning it into an oyster, he eventually resorted to burying it in the laundry room.
He can’t use him nen right now since the Phantom Troupe is using the transmitter he gave them to find the Homing Device he concealed in the laundry room.
Since Hunter x Hunter 400 cannot rely on his nen today, he will likely order his troops to explore the whole floor of the black Whale for a hiding spot large enough to conceal the Heil-ly. If he can’t find anyone who has seen a Heil-ly, he may resort to making composite drawings to show around. As a whole, Hinrigh Biganduffno will likely rally those working for him to amass as much data as they can for this operation. He might potentially rejoin Wang, the Cha-R underboss, who is searching for two people he believes are connected to Heil-ly. If he could track down these individuals, he might question them in an effort to learn more about the base’s whereabouts or Morena Prudo.
