But I will more than make up for the lost sword with my pride Here I come!
Oopsy.
Hisoka!
It's okay, I forfeit.
The winner is... Kurapika It's time for the second match of the Final Phase...
Hanzo versus... Gon l just can't understand how Hanzo and the kid could be deemed equal.
Yeah, if you take into account their grades from all of the phases so far Hanzo should be ranked much higher l don't mean to play favorites...
but when it comes to skill and power, the Baldy has an overwhelming advantage.
I'd hafta agree with you According to what the Chairman was saying it seems the overall impression namely, the immeasurable potential must have lead to his high assessment In other words his natural talent for being a Hunter was deemed remarkable, right But still.. In this fight, Baldy has the upper hand My name is Mas...
You were the one following me during the Fourth Phase, weren't you?
You knew about me?
Of course, I did.
In that phase, there was one proctor followin each of the other applicants as well, am I right Well! I'm sure everyone knew about that anyway, though.
l had no idea.
l would've told you, but I thought it was far too obvious.
l owe you one, Proctor-san!
Huh?
Even though I passed the Fourth Phase by stealing the badges of inferior opponents l still managed to get a high ranking for this tournament Yeah, and?
It's all thanks to you!
It's because your judgment was accurate!
But I suppose it's only natural, right?
All that aside.. There's something I want to make sure.. About what?
In order to win, I have to make my opponent forfeit the match.
So there's no winning by TKO or a knock out, or anything else, am I right Yeah, that's correct.
But really, he sure talks a lot.
l see.
This could be trickier than I thought.
He looks really strong But I have energy and I'm fast, too I'll run circles around him and seek my chance Ready?
Begin!
I'm guessing...
You are confident with your speed ls that right?
l admit...
...you're pretty good for a kid.
If it were me, I'd have dodged that level of attack easily Now then If this were a regular fight, this would've settled it, but...
Here, wake up already How about it? l bet you're feeling really horrible, huh That's because I struck a blow to your brain stem.
Now you get it, right?
The gap in our strengths is undeniable You'd better give up while you are ahead No way!
Think about it long and hard.
If you quit now, it won't affect your next match There's really no point in being so stubborn about it, you know?
Come on now, just say the word Like I ever would!
So, you won't I'll never surrender!
Gon! Don't push yourself!
There's still next match! For now...
Leorio, suppose you were in his position.
Would you be willing to say, "I give up" I'm just like you and Gon. l wouldn't even if I died.
l know that, but still I have to tell him this!
Though contradictory, l can't help feeling the same way!
Listen to Leorio and back down for now, Gon.
Or you'll destroy yourself And the Chairman thought you and I were mean.
We were pushovers compared to what he's doing.
Isn't it obvious that anyone who's made it this fa isn't gonna give up just like that But Hisoka did say he forfeited.
That was an exception to the rule l have a feeling Hisoka had an ulterior motive.
Anyway, that kid is the real issue here.
What happens when he can't verbally surrender anymore Geez, the way this tournament is set up is brutal.
That kid's in big trouble.
This match has just started.
I've taken a few hits, but I've still got a lot of energy left l told you already.
l hit you so your brain would go numb.
l bet you aren't able to see much by now You have guts, I'll give you that.
But this isn't some kid's scuffle.
There are times when guts alone just don't cut it Like what your friend told you it's more realistic to lose this match and take your chance on the next.. Sorry about that...
But since you were relying on your sense of hearing to attack me l had to crush one of your ears There's a possibility that you won't be able to talk so I spared the other one But it's gonna be nearly impossible for you to tell directions with this Stop your useless resistance He'd go that far?
l can still hear.
As long as I've got one good ear, l can still fight I've just gotta protect it with my life Oh yeah, you've got an incredible sense of hearing.
Gon!
Here's some water!
You can use it to cool yourself off l can see a little now.
l can do this!
You don't know your place, do you?!
It's been over three hours.
He won't even spit blood anymore You hear me, don't you? I've got a question for you.
You know that you can use weapons in this tournament, right?
So why don't you use that fishing rod of yours already Didn't you use it to steal Hisoka's badge?
Maybe you thought you could defeat me without your weapon If so, you've greatly underestimated me.. Haven't you? You're wrong!
Whenever I get into a fight, l always fight to win!
l don't underestimate anybody!
Then, why haven't you tried using your weapon?
My weapon, that fishing rod, once belonged to my father!
Yeah, so what?
That fishing rod has helped me more times than I can count.
Thanks to it, I've gotten this far But this is the last test before becoming a Hunter It's something I want to do all by myself It doesn't mean anything if l have to borrow my father's strength This is my own personal fight l wondered what in the world could be the reason but guess it wasn't really much So, you think t...
That just means you are still underestimating me!
I'll tell you one last time You should learn your place All right, that's enough!
You bastard, I'll kill you!
Let me stand in for him, I'll fight you!
If you don't have the stomach to watch, then leave.
It's about to get a whole lot worse What was that?!
Interfering in other applicant's matches is not permitted.
There has been no violation of the rules by Hanzo If you were to step in and help Gon in any wa then he would be the one to be disqualified Thanks... Leorio.
But don't worry. I'm okay.
This is nothing I can't handle...
l can still keep on fighting.
I'll break your arm.
I'm serious!
Say it! Surrender Never There, now you can't use your left arm.
I know it won't help Gon, but if that guys lays one more hand on him I'm not going to be able to stop myself You'd better not get in my way, Kurapika!
Stop you?
Me stopping you?
Rest assured... That won't happen.
l feel the same way you do.
