Since its recent return from an extended break, Hunter x Hunter has captivated audiences with each new chapter penned by Togashi. Fans can expect Chapter 410 to conclude this installment of the series before yet another hiatus, leading many to speculate that this chapter will be particularly unforgettable.

In anticipation of this weekend’s release, readers are eager for more developments surrounding the implications of Martial Law and the complexities of Borksen’s and Morena’s relationship.

Borksen’s Transformation and Nen Ability

A Fatal Requirement for Borksen

In the latest chapters (407-409), the narrative has primarily centered on two key characters—the cunning Morena Prudo, leader of Heil-Ly, and Borksen, a member of Tserriednich’s personal army. The dramatic twist escalated when Borksen was abducted by Morena and thrust into a pivotal card game that would determine her fate: to join, die, or escape. Surprising everyone, Borksen opted to align with Morena after successfully drawing the Yes Card from the game’s graveyard.

This decision solidifies Borksen’s membership in the Heil-Ly and sets the stage for her to acquire a Nen ability. Having met two out of three requirements for Contagion—kissing Morena and winning the card game—she now must witness a murder by either Morena or another Heil-Ly member. Fans are speculating that this requirement might be fulfilled in the upcoming chapter, possibly at the cost of an unsuspecting character from Tserriednich’s army.

Borksen’s declaration suggests strategic foresight: “I’ll use those vows and limitations to my advantage… so you won’t be able to get any of us after I leave.”

Upon satisfying the final condition, Borksen will become a specialist with a unique Nen ability, bypassing the extensive training normally required. However, the moral dilemma of taking lives may challenge her newfound loyalty, opening pathways for intriguing character development as she may harbor ulterior motives against Morena’s ambitions.

The Rationale Behind Martial Law

Impending Revelations in Chapter 410

Martial Law recently shrouded the Kakin Kingdom in chaos, granting unparalleled authority to the military under Prince Benjamin’s command. Currently, only upper-tier citizens (1st, 2nd, and 3rd) are subject to this law. The root cause of this drastic measure remains a mystery, but several potential scenarios are being considered.

One plausible explanation is Ninth Prince Halkenburg’s involvement; he’s assumed control over the body of Benjamin’s operative, Might, with intentions to eliminate Benjamin himself. A thwarted attempt or unexpected turn of events could have triggered this declaration of Martial Law.

Another possibility involves the assassination of Luzurus, the 7th Prince, orchestrated by rivals Kaiser, Melody, and Beast Kocho. They believe Luzurus plays a vital role in Fugetsu’s suffering and may be motivated to ensure quick action, culminating in Luzurus’ untimely demise.

Lastly, Chrollo Lucilfer’s potential heist involving Kakin’s National Treasures, which are integral to the ongoing Succession War, could be causing significant unrest and, subsequently, Martial Law. The theft of such valuable artifacts would undoubtedly destabilize the power dynamics at play.

As the narrative progresses, readers should prepare for greater turmoil that could lead to tragic character losses as the Black Whale saga deepens in complexity. Despite speculation regarding Morena’s potential influence over these events, her visible distress suggests she is not orchestrating this chaos.

Release Date for Chapter 410

Mark your calendars for December 8, 2024, when Hunter x Hunter Chapter 410 is set to release. This will be the last chapter for the time being as the series goes on hiatus afterward. Though the break may be disheartening, fans remain hopeful that Togashi’s return will be worth the wait.

The Hunter x Hunter manga is accessible through Viz Media, with free readings available on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus platforms.
