Let's talk about this phantasmal character, Gyro. Despite having never appeared in person, he has been referenced by numerous characters on many occasions, has had almost an episode dedicated to his background, and has a "power section" in the databook, which is pretty weird, since not even the Phantom Troupe or more important character have it. He will probably turn out to be a crucial character. What follows is mere speculation.

With the eyes of the V6 and the Hunters Association trained on the expedition to the Dark Continent, Gyro is free to gain power to accomplish his goal: destroy everything (it really is, I'm not making it up). Perhaps through Nen, he gains control over the human-ant hybrids that have hatched from the cocoons, thus becoming the main antagonist. It might be possible that Pariston is helping him, and that he joined the expedition so as to divert the attention of the Zodiacs while the newborn Chimeras wreak havoc undisturbed, with many Hunters having sailed on the Black Whale. So the Dark Continent Arc might indeed be the last and divided between the Dark Continent and the known world, or end with the surviving Zodiacs somehow discovering what is going on back in the known world.

Now, what will the characters do?

- Gon and Killua: they do not go to the Drak Continent; instead, they try to oppose Gyro. Maybe thanks to Alluka, Gon recovers his Nen. I really hope they will be reunited anyway, their parting did not make too much sense.

- Knuckle, Shoot and Palm: I can't decide if they will head to the Dark Continent with Morel and Knov or if they will fight Gyro with Gon and Killua.

- Kite, the Contract Hunters and the good Chimera Ants (Meleoron, Ikalgo, Koala, Colt): They oppose Gyro and perhaps Kite ends up being the new king/queen.

- the Phantom Troupe: Chrollo recovers his Nen. Will they join the fight against the hybrids, too?

- Bizeff, Hina, Welfin: they find or are found by Gyro and join forces with him.

- Melody and Hanzo: Melody is selected as one of the bodyguards of the princes, because she has heard that Tserriednich is in possession of the Sonata of Darkness. She might help Kurapika again. Perhaps Hanzo will appear for the same reason.

This is all assuming that Togashi will not be forced to end the manga in like ten chapters because he has taken way too many breaks for it to keep being serialized...
