Chrollo heads to the upper levels in search of the Nen user and sacred treasure he is looking for.

Char Group, inner passage

Military advisor Tahao is guiding Nobunaga, Feitan, and Phinks through the upper levels.

The secret passage used by Char's group was a staircase on the outermost side of the BW, where the domestic wastewater from the 200,000 people aboard the BW was dumped.

 

B/W outside stairs

The space outside the BW was where the passage to the upper levels was located and also served as a sewer.

A staircase without a handrail continues all the way up, leading to the second floor.

Travel from the third floor to the second floor is strictly restricted, but this back route allows you to bypass the guards and go up.

Yoshihiro Togashi, Hunter x Hunter, Volume 34, Page 158

Finks and the others realize what Ei-I is doing (infiltrating the waste disposal company as a subcontractor and efficiently massacring civilians).

Nobunaga returns to the third floor, while Phinks and Feitan go straight to the second floor to search for Ei-Yi.

 

Ei-I Group Hideout Processing Plant

The transmitter, which had been transformed into an oyster by Hinrigi's Nen ability, returns to its original form.

According to Hinrigi, "At this size, it will probably take about two hours" for the aura to run out and the oyster to return to the transmitter. Hinrigi also returns to the transmitter when it dies, but since this scene is followed by a conversation between Hinrigi and Zakuro, it can be assumed that only two hours have passed.

As I was talking about the lynching, my subordinate came rushing over to call me.

Lynch was found murdered.

Hinrigi and Zakuro discuss the perpetrator while carrying Lynch's body.

The two suspect that the culprit is someone else disguised as Hisoka, and that it may be the Phantom Troupe. If that's the case, they appear determined to exact revenge.

Lynch was killed by Bonolenov of the Phantom Troupe.
He is not very good at using his head, so this was an action he took without thinking.
Hinrigi is aware of the difference in power between them and the Phantom Troupe, and knows that he cannot win. Will he seek revenge even if he cannot win, or will he create a situation where he can win and fight, or will he just say that in front of Zakuro and then come up with a plan...?

Chrollo searches for the Nen user he is looking for at the occasion of Halkenburg's funeral, when a large crowd gathers.

The ability he will be trying out is "Love Dial 6700 (Immediate Call)," which he stole using the thief's secret technique.

A flashback reveals the purpose of boarding the BW.

Chrollo is after the three sacred treasures of Kakin, and by obtaining them, his own Nen abilities will evolve, allowing him to steal rare Nen abilities that will ensure he can kill Hisoka.

He also does not seem to care about his own life or death, and it appears that he has created a situation where even if he dies in battle with Hisoka, the survival of the Phantom Troupe will not be affected.

Chrollo's lack of concern for life and death remains the same.

From Yoshihiro Togashi's HUNTER×HUNTER Volume 12

Here, it is revealed that new preparations have been made for what will happen after his death.

Halkenburg's coffin is carried away.

Chrollo finds the person with the ability he is looking for using "Love Dial 6700 (Imamwashi Telephone)", but at the same time he realizes that he is far away from them.

As expected, Chrollo is convinced that his target is on the upper floors.
