Nen Ability Training Method
These Nen abilities cannot be acquired overnight. Even if one has the talent, the basic requirement is to train in the correct way for a long period of time.
By using expedient means, he can evade those who try to master his mind.
Nen can be extremely dangerous depending on how it is used, and can become a fearsome weapon if mastered by an evil person. Therefore, as a means to confuse those who are unwilling to learn Nen, the four principles of Ten, Zetsu, Ren, and Hatsu are taught. In the story, Wing explains these principles to Gon and Killua (who were not his students at the time).
