Ep 6. A x Surprising x Challenge

Gon and his friends continue their journey towards the Hunter Exam's second phase. Along the way, Leorio, Kurapika, and Killua appear to be hiding something. Gon senses that they are not telling him something important, so he confronts them. Leorio reveals that he needs to raise money for medical school, and Kurapika explains that he is seeking vengeance for his tribe. Killua, on the other hand, is a member of an infamous assassins clan and has been trained since birth to kill.

After their conversation, they find a tunnel leading to an underground city named Visca. Upon their arrival, the group meets the city's ruler, Tsezguerra, who informs them of an upcoming event called the "Battle Olympia." The Battle Olympia is a tournament where competitors must fight until one person remains standing. The prize for winning is 50 million jenny. This news excites Gon and Killua, who both see the Battle Olympia as an opportunity to earn money and hone their fighting skills.

Tsezguerra challenges Gon and Killua to participate in the Battle Olympia as a team, promising to give them a sizable chunk of the prize money if they are successful. However, there is a catch - the duo must also complete a "Treasure Hunt" challenge before they can fight in the tournament. The Treasure Hunt challenge requires them to find a specific item in a large, maze-like tower, and retrieve it before time runs out. The tower is also filled with traps and obstacles, making the challenge all the more difficult.

Gon and Killua accept Tsezguerra's challenge and begin their Treasure Hunt. They quickly realize that the challenge is much harder than they anticipated, with the tower's complex architecture making it challenging to navigate. On top of that, several other teams are also searching for the treasure, making it a race against time. Gon and Killua put their skills to the test, using their agility and coordination to overcome obstacles and avoid traps.

As they progress through the tower, they encounter another team led by a veteran hunter named Hisoka. Hisoka is a muscular, mysterious man with a love for fighting who quickly becomes a potential threat to Gon and Killua. The two teams engage in a game of cat and mouse, with neither wanting to give up their position in the tower.

Eventually, Gon and Killua reach the top of the tower and retrieve the treasure, narrowly avoiding Hisoka's team. With the Treasure Hunt challenge completed, Gon and Killua are free to participate in the Battle Olympia. However, they realize that they will have to face off against Hisoka and several other skilled hunters in the tournament.

The episode ends with Gon and Killua eagerly awaiting the start of the Battle Olympia, both excited and nervous about the challenges that lay ahead. As they prepare for the upcoming battle, they realize that they have much to learn and that their skills will be put to the test. Excitement builds as the episode closes, leaving viewers eager to see what happens next in Hunter X Hunter (2011) season 1 episode 7.
