Summary

After Kurapika easily disarms Sayird and uses Steal Chain to borrow his ability, the Royal Army arrives to clean up the scene, leaving Oito and Woble with only two bodyguards. Before leaving the banquet, Halkenburg tells his father that he wishes to withdraw from the succession battle. The King sees the Guardian Spirit Beasts of his children, explaining that they neither kill one another nor attack those who have them. After hearing Kurapika's emergency call, many of the Princes are interested in the concept of Nen and Nen beasts. Benjamin argues with Camilla in front of his father, and initially decides to begin killing his siblings, but Balsamilco calms him down and convinces him to use his soldiers to observe the other Princes, who are told to use lethal force if they have to defend themselves.

One of these soldiers, Vincent, kills Sandra and confronts Kurapika and Bill, who subdue him before he can harm anyone else. After Vincent commits suicide, Benjamin sends Babimyna as his replacement. Kurapika transfers Sayird's ability to Oito and plans to have her use it in order to gather information on the other Princes. It's revealed that every second Kurapika has Emperor Time activated, he loses one hour of his life. Shortly afterwards, Zhang Lei invites Kurapika and Oito to a meeting so that he can learn more about Nen.

Four hours into the voyage, the actions of all the Princes are shown, and in the bottom tier of the Black Whale, a distraught Chrollo is seen among the crowd of people. While teaching Zhang Lei's guards about Nen, Kurapika has Oito use Sayird's ability on a roach, planning to use the insect to spy on the other Princes. But when Oito checks on Momoze, she finds the Prince being strangled by an unknown guard. Kurapika falls unconscious from the strain of using Emperor Time, and Hanzo resolves to avenge Momoze's death. Theta continues teaching Nen to Tserriednich, although the Prince begins to question how truthful she is being.

Kurapika wakes up after nine hours and realizes that he has had Emperor Time activated for 12 hours (meaning that roughly five years have been taken off his lifespan). He convinces Oito to continue using Sayird's ability, but when she goes to observe Tserriednich's quarters, his Guardian Spirit Beast appears in the air duct and eats the bug. Several Princes send their bodyguards and servants to learn Nen from Kurapika in the promised two-week time frame. During the lesson, someone uses an ability called Silent Majority and has four snakes attack Barrigen to drain him of his blood (the same attack that killed Woody and the others), shifting Kurapika's focus to finding the assassin among the group.
