HxH Battle: Gon and Killua vs Shalnark and Shizuku

Gon and Killua

Shalnark and Shizuku

Rules:

• No prep time
• Morals on, everyone is in character
• Win by any means
• Gon and Killua are post Chimera Arc versions and prior (No Adult Gon)
• Starting distance is 30 ft apart

Location: Town

Callouts:

Team 1 should do it

team 2 wins. HxH isn't Dragon Ball, power-scaling is nowhere near as important and certain characters will stay above others

Team 1. Swap Shizuku with someone like Feitan.

@god_vulcan: even with the almighty Binky?

Feitan is overkill, Uvo, Machi or Franklin should be more than enough to beat Gon and Killua.

Eh maybe not Franklin but the others could do it.

@darthsenju: Well i give Franklin a bit benefit of the doubt.

@gilgameshthepimptoendallpimps Thoughts?

definitely team 2, gon and killua have definitely made massive improvements since the yorknew arc, but they're still nowhere close to beating even 1 of the phantom troupe members as a duo (maybe someone like Kortopi and Bonolenov but that's an entirely separate topic).

@gilgameshthepimptoendallpimps: Bonolenov could arguably give them a run for their money.

bump

Team 2, most likely.

Though CA Gon and Killua, (even if we ignore Gon's improvements in raw power aided by his emotions as we saw with Morel) will be able to make them work for it.

It's hard to tell if I should consider how powerful even child Gon's Jajanken was here. Killua went from barely hurting base Rammot with his Hatsu to roflblitzing a nen using Rammot without it (nvm godspeed) due to the removal of Illumi's needle, which is a permanent improvement, and then developed Godspeed which has allowed him to even harrass Youpi without having to worry about his own safety.

Gon however, went from winding Rammot and being able to partially damage other Ants to being a danger even to Pitou (which would honestly mean a 1 hit kill for anyone else, which is backed up by how Morel felt facing off against Gon's Jajanken) but I don't really consider that an actual improvement Gon made in his abilities, simply something he had due to the circumstances.

Team 1 takes this. Killua casually one shotted an ant of the same rank that Shizuku had trouble with. Shalnark also had trouble with a random fodder ant and he doesn't go for autopilot immediately in character.

Yeah no, Killua casually blitzed Youpi point blank range. Something only Meruem and Netero were capable of. Fodder Kumou members don't stand a chance.

Gon, too, made Morel piss his pants just by powering his jajanken, the same guy who said aura isn't a factor in a battle.

These two aren't the same kids who were casually bullied by the Kumou.

I can see Killua beating Nobunaga without much difficulty. While using whirlwind, his reaction time is negligible in close combat, he would casually stop and break the Nobunaga's shodaichi, considering he was able shred even someone like Pouf with just a single strike. Then he would proceed to pulverise Nobunaga.

@chronicplane:

^^ and Shalnark with Phinks tbh, that would be better too.

Shalnark was struggling to fight a peon chimera ant, while killua was casually able to kill chimera ant officers and was said to have the potential of a Squadron leader. Gon is obviously relative to killua. For example when he was gonna attack morel with a jajanken and it presumably was going to kill morel as he along with knuckle knov and shoot were sweating. He also was constantly getting stronger through his will to revenge kite(as shown with characters constantly talking abt his growing darkness and his aura literally getting darker over time). Even killua mentions when they confront pitou that his nen is way larger than normally is.There is also killua with his godspeed. Shizuku was struggling against an officer ant, while gon killed and defeated 5. He was also physically comparable to her in the yorknew city arc(granted with her weaker arm but still) and killua is physically stronger than him and they both get overall stronger by the time of the chimera ant arc. We can assume shalnark and shizuku got stronger , but nothing would imply a strength increase comparable to that of either gon or killua. And finally shalnark had to use his strongest technique just to kill a peon. and he was sore afterwards.

Overall Gon and Killua should win with mid-difficulty.

Killua hard solos lmao.
