The Zoldycks: Part 2 (ゾルディック
Synopsis[]
Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio thank Zebro and Seaquant before leaving the servants' quarters. Zebro tells them to follow the path to the mountain and that they will find the Zoldyck Family mansion somewhere up there, adding that he has never been there during his 20 years of service. As the three waves goodbye, Zebro comments that they all managed to open the Testing Gate in 20 days, with Leorio even opening the second set of doors. Seaquant tells him they are professional Hunters. While Zebro guesses that they may be able to reach the mansion, Seaquant reminds him of the incident three years earlier when a Blacklist Hunter brought 100 thugs to attack the mansion. He recounts that all 100 were defeated by a single butler apprentice who was only 10 years old at the time. Zebro wittily adds that he remembers the Hunter being so impressed that he asked for a job. Seaquant takes a puff of his cigarette and says that the massacre showed him how outclassed he was.
As Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio make their way toward the mountain, they eventually encounter a female butler standing at the entrance of a small wall. She tells them to leave since trespassers are not welcome on private property. Gon points out that they called ahead and entered through the Testing Gate, but the woman asks if they received permission from the butlers. Gon admits that they did not and asks how they can do so, but she replies that there has never been a precedent for it. An annoyed Gon says that trespassing is their only option, but she again orders them to leave, threatening to remove them by force if they cross the line in front of her.
After Gon walks forward and crosses the line with his foot, the butler immediately knocks him back with her staff. Kurapika readies his *bokken and Leorio his switchblade, but Gon quickly tells them that he will handle it himself, explaining to the butler that they have only come because they want to see Killua. Wielding her staff, the butler says that regardless of whether they are telling the truth, she still has to follow her orders. Setting aside his fishing rod and backpack, Gon slowly walks up toward the butler, and she again strikes him hard with her staff. The barrage of strikes continues as someone watches from the bushes nearby. With his face bloody and bruised, and his left eye swollen shut, Gon continues to endure the butler's attacks, continually struggling to his feet to face her.
She politely asks Gon to go away and strikes him once again after his foot crosses the line. Gon remains on his feet and again walks toward the butler, who yells at Kurapika and Leorio to stop him since they are his friends. However, the two remain exactly where they are and appear emotionless. With the butler taken aback, Gon clenches his fist and asks why they need to fight, repeating that they just want to see their friend. As he angrily asks what they are all afraid of, he destroys the nearby pillar with a punch and points out that his foot has crossed the line. Tightly gripping her staff, the butler is unable to strike him as a nervous look appears on her face. Gon then says that the difference between her and Mike is that she still has a soul even though she hides her emotions, recognizing that she appeared concerned once he mentioned Killua by name.
As the butler begins to cry and begs them to help Killua, a projectile suddenly strikes her in the side of the head, drawing blood and leaving her motionless on the ground. Left stunned, the three spot a young child and a woman wearing a visor, large hat, and ornate dress in the distance. The latter says that they cannot have the help acting on their own, pointing out that as an apprentice, she doesn't understand the family dynamic well enough. The woman then focuses on Gon and confirms who he is, saying that Illumi mentioned him. She reveals that Killua knows they have been on the estate for the past three weeks and then relays a message from him, in which he thanks them for coming but apologizes for being currently indisposed. Underneath the Zoldycks' mansion, Killua is seen with numerous injuries across his face and body as he hangs shackled and chained.
