Summary of Hunter x Hunter Chapter 403
The previous chapter commenced on a Wednesday at 6:45 am, where Balsamilco was on his way to the Courthouse, determined to kill Halkenburg. He was under the impression that Halkenburg’s guards would be absent, making him vulnerable.
As he was about to carry out his plan, Vict showed up, leading Balsamilco to suspect that Halkenburg had used the Rumbling ability against him. Soon after, Halkenburg arrived with a group and fired an arrow at Balsamilco.
The narrative then shifted to Prince Benjamin, who discovered that the trial had been postponed due to technical complications involving the plaintiff and Halkenburg’s illness. Benjamin inferred that the assassination attempt had failed as Balsamilco had become the target instead.
When Balsamilco returned to report, Benjamin stayed cautious, contemplating the necessity of eliminating him if he returned unsuccessful. Ultimately, Balsamilco claimed he had indeed achieved his mission.
Simultaneously, First Queen Unma was on a call, disclosing that Halkenburg is her offspring.
Benjamin later received a letter from Kacho, revealing Unma’s attempts to safeguard Halkenburg from his brothers and sisters by misrepresenting him as the child of the Second Queen. As the Succession War progresses, she has also undertaken actions that would benefit Halkenburg.
In a different setting, Kurapika warned Queen Oito that any prince attempting to depart the ship would meet death due to the Nen barrier. He sought her approval to make Kacho’s letter public to stir conflict among the higher-ranking princes, believing it could be a way to rescue Woble.
The chapter concluded with Kaiser realizing that Halkenburg is nearing death.
Speculations for Hunter x Hunter Chapter 404
In chapter 404 of Hunter x Hunter, readers can expect further developments in Unma and Halkenburg’s plans. Despite earlier perceptions that Halkenburg is on his deathbed, this may not paint the whole picture, and he could have a few strategies left up his sleeve, akin to Kacho’s earlier maneuvers.
Additionally, fans are likely looking forward to the teamwork among Melody, Kacho, and Kaiser as they strategize to rescue Fugetsu, which might entail taking out Prince Luzurus.
