After completing their training, Biscuit sends the exhausted Gon and Killua to face Knuckle. Looking at the condition of their opponents, Knuckle boasts that they could never move him an inch and bets his token on it. However his assumptions are proven wrong when Gon manages to land a powerful hit that knocks him out cold, and after awakening, Knuckle agrees that he will help them with their training until the deadline for returning the token comes. Meanwhile, at the nest, Neferpitou focuses on reviving Kite for a second chance to fight him. Netero's team starts taking down small groups of Chimera Ants, drawing the attention of the captains, while the king grows strong inside the queen's womb. As Gon and Killua spend their days training with Biscuit and sparring with Knuckle, the second of Morel's disciples, Shoot, makes plans about how to deal with them.
