Original subtitles

Igokochi no ii sonna basho ni zutto ite mo

If I always stayed in this comfortable place,

hohoemi sae kumo no you ni kiete yuku

my smile would disappear like a cloud.

Kono hageshii kaze no naka de tachidomatte

There is no way I can stop and stand,

iru koto nado dekinai no sa

in this harsh wind.

Yume wo egaku dake de, hashiridasanakereba

If you just picture your dream, but don't take off running,

nani mo hajimari wa shinai kara

nothing will start.

Ashita ni wa nani ga machi uketeiru no ka

I wonder what will be waiting tomorrow.

Ima wa shiranai, tashikametai

Right now I don't know. I want to find out.

Kibou no kakera wo POCKET ni tsumekomi

Stuff that fragment of hope into your pocket.

Sora no kanata he yukou

and let's go to the place beyond the sky.

Ready? Gon?

Bring it!

Oh my God! Run! You’ll die!

Ko!

Gon!

Where’s the ball?!

Rock x Paper x Scissors!

I had it built thick for just this reason.

At least it didn’t punch all the way through.

Look how far it’s embedded...

It ain’t coming down.

Gon!

Are you okay?!

Hey Gon, get a grip!

Gon...

I’m fine!

Yeah right!

Geez, you had us worried...

I guarded my head and hands with Ko...

so my legs couldn’t brace hard enough.

But... my hands still move.

I’ll catch it next time.

That’s for certain!

I’m surprised he escaped with that little damage.

The ball would fall about...

The game will continue! Gon’s team has possession!

The ceiling is an extension of the floor and walls, so Gon is out!

I’ll be the one to say, “back.”

But Gon...

I want to do it.

He won’t listen.

All right, then. But... only after we’re down to two on our team.

Got it?

Yeah.

If everything is fine, we’ll begin!

Gon, get first aid.

Passing back and forth is allowed, right?

Yes.

You all right?

I’m fine.

H-Hey!

It’s eating away at me.

This is payback, Razor.

C’mon!

Take this!

Black Goreinu!

So the black one switches with others!

Booyah, see how you like it being out.

You got me there.

Razor will use “back” to come back in play anyway...

At least we made him use it up early.

Plus, it’ll be our ball...

Go-Goreinu!

Nice ability.

Nurture it well.

The Nen beast faded when he passed out.

It was controlled remotely--not on automatic pilot.

Hey, you! That was uncalled for!

Hm?

There’s no rule against passing to the opposing team.

Head shots are legal, too.

If that ball had hit the floor, I would’ve been out.

If he regains consciousness during the match,

the black gorilla can start in court.

Though I doubt he will.

But if you run out of players first, the match will be over.

Please keep that in mind.

He’s out cold!

Even if he wakes up, he’ll be in no condition to conjure a Nen beast...

Now the court is down to three vs. three.

But the pressure’s more on us.

Half of us are now sitting out, with one injured kid as the retriever.

The enemy’s many retrievers can attack from anywhere.

Razor is still in court, his free out unused.

And they have control of the ball.

We’re at a serious disadvantage...

Now then...

Who... will go next?

It’s coming to me!

Now what?!

I can’t catch this, I have to dodge!

It curved?! A shoot ball?!

Bisky!

Hisoka!

Bungee Gum.

That bastard...

What was Razor thinking?!

Razor made it seem like it was coming for me,

when his real goal was nailing Bisky and Hisoka at once...

But I could’ve just as easily ducked to the left...

Then I wouldn’t have been able to escape...

Damn it.

Bisky is out!

Step out of the court!

What?!

Why?!

Clothing counts... is that how it is?

That’s right!

Drat...

And I thought she was safe!

Only two left!

You can’t let them get control of the ball!

Back!

Gon declares, “back”!

He moves back on the court!

Can that kid really handle it?!

He’s not just any kid.

He’s the only one who went head to head against Razor’s ball.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Don’t overdo it, you hear?

Yeah.

What’s one plus one?

Yeah.

Hopeless...

Okay, beat him if it kills you!

Osu!

You okay?

I’m fine.

I found out one thing.

The ball is less destructive once it passes through a retriever.

I only broke two fingers, without Ko.

So we won’t get hurt as long as we dodge Razor’s throws.

Right.

That won’t be a true victory.

What?!

A win is a win! We gotta be able to win at all before you can get picky! Calm down!

Doesn’t it make you feel angry?

Huh?

If you had dodged to the left, you would’ve been dead.

Right?

I’m really boiling inside.

A cheap win won’t be good enough! I have to crush him completely!

You got an idea?

Yup. I’ll show you.

Killua. Stand there.

Huh?

Like this?

Yeah. Bend your knees and hold the ball.

Okay.

That’s it. Now, don’t move.

Of course!

Here I go, Killua!

All right!

First comes rock!

The volume of his aura skyrocketed...

Rock... paper... rock!

Oh!

Number 13 is out!

Catching the ball while the body is touching outside the court is not legal!

Gon’s team has possession!

– Oh, wow! – Woot!

Amazing!

He blew away the biggest guy!

Argh! That wasn’t good enough!

He’s still... not satisfied...

He’s gotta have some crazy standards...

That won’t be enough to knock out Razor!

I need more power!

Killua.

Okay, another go!

Let’s take Razor down!

Okay.

To knock out Razor...

I need a lot more power!

Ren!

So much aura!

You picked the wrong sport.

He can take all the time he wants to build up.

You should get out of the way.

You kidding?

Take the built-up aura and...

First comes rock!

Focus into my fist!

Eat this, Razor!

Rock! Paper! Rock!

Perfect! He can’t catch it!

That’s...

A bump?!

He jerked his whole body back and killed the ball’s momentum.

His timing had to be perfect, and he deflected the force so smoothly.

This man is seriously good.

It’s not all dodging and catching.

Not that this is helpful.

Awesome!

Gon’s ball was just as powerful as Razor’s! But it didn’t even reach the ceiling...

That bump canceled out its momentum completely.

Bungee Gum!

Tsk tsk. Gotta hold on to the ball, you know?

The cushion rule applies! Razor is out!

Back.

Razor uses the “back” option!

He remains on the court!

Both teams used up the freebie, and it’s three to two!

Now the tables have turned!

Have they?

We’re the ones in bad shape.

Hisoka probably can’t throw anymore.

I bet he can’t even catch with his right hand.

Gon used up all that aura in the attack.

He should be close to exhaustion.

I doubt he would be able to reproduce the same kind of shot.

So... Killua’s the only one who’s all right?!

No. Quite the opposite.

– Huh?! – Huh?!

Of the three, Killua is the one most gravely injured.

What do you mean?!

How’re you doing, Gon?

Still okay. But I think the next will be the last...

And I’ll use all I’ve got!

Yup! Make it good!

Yeah!

Only one more... I’ll manage! I can still hold it!

Killua isn’t protecting his hands with Nen when Gon strikes the ball.

At all.

B-But... it’s like a cannon!

Yes. His bare hands are basically acting as the barrel for a cannonball.

If he protected his hands with a wall of aura,

it would prevent the energy of Gon’s punch...

from transferring to the ball.

To minimize interference, he’s leaving his hands unprotected.

Both of Killua’s hands should be injured much worse than Hisoka’s right hand.

Damn it! I’m such an idiot!

Why am I not up there with them?!

I have the skills Killua doesn’t yet have.

I could swiftly switch my aura to my hands the instant the ball is fired.

Wait a minute!

Hisoka. Pass me the ball.

I’m not that good at throwing, but...

Number 2 is out! Move out of the court!

Yes!

Only one left!

Just Razor!

Time for the showdown.

I have a question! Time!

Mr. Tsezguerra?

Don’t push yourself, old man.

Just take your time to rest.

The pain I feel is nothing compared to what you bear.

Can someone inside the court step outside of their own will?

That’s no problem, but they’ll stay out!

Good.

Old man, what does that have to do with anything?

I’ll explain, come with me.

Gon, if you step outside the court, I can hold the ball for you.

Killua’s hands are surely mangled by now.

He won’t be able to secure the ball properly.

I’d be able to transfer my aura fast enough.

I’ll hold the ball, so get Razor from outside.

That’s the only way to win!

That’s not good enough.

Yeah.

Wh-What’s the problem?!

That’s copping out.

Are we in a position to be worried about that?!

You’re hurt, too, old man.

Don’t make it any worse.

I’ll be fine. I’m not as injured as you think.

Then show me your hands.

I said, I’m fine.

Bisky?!

See?! I bet you can’t feel anything but pain!

I can still do it!

It’s just one more time.

Gon, it’s no big deal.

It’s too much!

Gon, tell him what he’s doing to himself...

What will you do now?

Next Episode

Gon, I’ll hold the ball. It has to be me!

Next time on Hunter X Hunter:

“Unite X Impact X Bungee Gum”!

Gon... I can do it!
