The Heil-Ly Family (エイ=イ一家, Ei i Ikka) is one of the three largest Mafia families in the Kakin Empire. Fourth Prince Tserriednich Hui Guo Rou is one of their benefactors.[1] It counts 23 members, including its Boss, Morena Prudo.[2]
Background
Edit
At some point after joining the Heil-Ly family, Morena, at the time a junior member, staged a coup and became the new Boss. She then had her underlings kill each other until only 22 remained.[2]
PlotEdit
Succession Contest arcEdit
Morena uses her Nen ability on her followers
Members of the Heil-Ly Family boarded the Black Whale in order to secure territory on the New Continent.[1] Established on the third floor of the ship, their main source of income comes from mediating secret deals with the upper deck.[2] Supposedly, the Boss is a VIP on Tier 1 and the underlings are scheming to whittle down the numbers of the two rival families, Xi-Yu and Cha-R;[1] however, this seems to conflict with Morena's actions and orders. She in fact uses her Nen ability, Contagion on 22 of her followers and orders them to wreak havoc on the ship, killing as many people as possible.[2]
Luini and Cashew plan together
After murdering 20 people in Tier 3,[2] Luini uses his newly developed abilities to teleport to Tier 5 and pit the Phantom Troupe and the Cha-R Family against each other. He also infiltrates the rival family's hideout and tries to open the door leading to the upper tiers of the ship, unsuccessfully. His ruse is, however, discovered. Meanwhile, Cashew passes herself off as a witness of Luini's murders to test the investigative abilities of the police and the Hunter Association.[3]
Over the next few days, members of the Heil-Ly Family are suspected of killing 8 men of the Cha-R Family looking for Hisoka and as many as 300 members of the Xi-Yu Family, with Luini being actively involved. Morena, in the meanwhile, cannot be found in her room in Tier 1 and not even during the searches in Tier 3. News of the situation reach Prince Tserriednich, who promises to intervene on the first occasion.[4]
Two Heil-Ly members notice the appearance Hinrigh and his associates
Hinrigh Biganduffno, the Xi-Yu Family Underboss, receives orders from Onior Longbao to search for Hisoka in Tier 3, before giving the Spiders access to search in Tier 4, in hopes of controlling them. Onior also orders Hinrigh to kill Morena, prompting Hinrigh to call to more members, Lynch Fullbokko and Zakuro Custard, to crush Heil-Ly.[5]
Lynch attacks a Heil-Ly member
On Tier 3, the Xi-Yu members spot two Heil-Ly members in a burger joint. The man orders his female companion to inform Morena of Xi-Yu's presence. While Hinrigh goes after the woman, Lynch and Zakuro confront the man. The man distracts them with a third Heil-Ly member, who slashes at Zakuro's neck. While the members are fighting, Hinrigh learns from the woman that the Heil-Ly members are listed as civilians, not Mafia members. Zakuro and Lynch defeat the two Heil-Ly members, with Lynch learning through the use of her ability, Body and Soul, about the basics of Heil-Ly's goal and Morena's ability.[5]

TriviaEdit
- Taken together, the katakana of the three Mafia families form "Shūeisha", the company responsible for the publication of Weekly Shōnen Jump and of Hunter × Hunter.
- The crest bears a resemblance to the letter A, whose English reading mirrors the pronunciation of the first part of the family's name ("ei").
- Mizaistom mentions to Kurapika that a criminal organization has managed to board the Black Whale using forged tickets, causing some people with valid tickets to be denied passage onto the ship.[6] It can be speculated that the organization in question were the Heil-Ly Family, due to all of the members being registered as civilians.[5]
