Hunter x Hunter 2011

[DarthEnderX]

Despite everything, I must say that Killua is way underestimating Pitou/overestimating himself. Does he reeeeally believe that Kite can still be saved? Because if that isn´t true, he´s giving up their best chance at defeating a member of the royal guard. Add to that that they´re likely still way weaker than Pitou.

Yeah, but if Kite really can't be saved, does it really matter if they defeat Pitou or not? The battle between Netero and the King will be long over then, and that's really the only one they care about.

Any way you look at it, the job Gon and Killua were given by the Hunters was too keep her from helping the King. And they've done that for the next hour at least(although technically, if they hadn't shown up, she'd have been busy for 3-4 hours).

Now their own personal mission of helping Kite? That's another matter.

I wonder how honest Pitou was when she said "I´ll do anything if you let me save this girl". If I were Gon, I´d have made the demand "save Kite, then kill yourself".

At the bare minimum, they should be asking her to explain how her powers work.

I will make this prediction: Pitou lied and will instantly go on the offense once Komugi is healed.

I want to say...Pitou will keep her word unless the King gives her a direct order. His command is more important than her life or her honor. If things go badly for Netero, the King may come back and order Pitou to kill them.

Why delay somebody for an hour if the other alternative is to delay them for an eternity? Makes zero sense unless there's some heavier reason to choose the single hour.

That's assuming that you really do get to one-shot Pitou. And some survival instinct doesn't kick in, she instinctively raises her aura to protect herself, Komugi dies, and then you have a full-power Pitou, enraged at having failed her King to deal with.

Better to just let her waste an hour if she'll do it willingly.

EDIT: Basically, what Shinta said.
