Gon and Killua have arrived at Heaven's Arena, a massive skyscraper solely dedicated to hosting battles between Nen users. They're both excited to compete and improve their abilities, but they quickly realize that they're seriously outmatched by the skilled fighters who make up Heaven's Arena's main attractions.

Despite that, Gon and Killua are determined to fight their way up the ranks and possibly even challenge the elusive #200 ranked fighter. In order to do so, they must first compete in a one-round match against other low-ranked fighters.

First up is Gon, who steps into the ring against a bulky, muscular opponent covered in bandages. It quickly becomes clear that this fighter, named Gido, specializes in manipulating metal with his Nen abilities. Gon is taken aback by Gido's unique fighting style, but he manages to hold his own and land a few good blows.

Meanwhile, Killua is watching from the sidelines, studying Gido's moves and trying to come up with a strategy for his own upcoming fight. He notices that Gido seems to have some kind of weak spot, but he can't quite put his finger on what it is.

As Gon and Gido continue their match, Gon begins to struggle. Gido's metal manipulation abilities are proving to be too strong for him to overcome, and his technique is too unpredictable for Gon to anticipate. But in a sudden burst of inspiration, Gon decides to make use of his surroundings and manipulates the arena floor to his advantage.

Thanks to this unexpected tactic, Gon is able to knock down Gido and claim victory. But he's left exhausted and injured from the intense fight, and he'll need some time to recover before he can continue on to the higher levels of Heaven's Arena.

Killua is up next, facing off against a fighter named Riehlvelt who specializes in lightning-based Nen abilities. Killua is nervous but focused, determined to find and exploit Riehlvelt's weak spot just like he noticed with Gido earlier.

The fight is intense and fast-paced, with Killua dodging and weaving through Riehlvelt's lightning attacks while looking for an opening. Finally, he finds it – Riehlvelt's Nen ability requires him to remain in one spot for a brief moment before he can unleash his lightning strikes.

Using that knowledge to his advantage, Killua lands a powerful punch and claims victory over Riehlvelt. It's a huge relief for Killua, who's been feeling the pressure to live up to Gon's impressive performance in the previous fight.

With both of them victorious, Gon and Killua advance to the next level of Heaven's Arena and continue on their quest to become stronger and better Nen users.
