Weird what if but I wonder what would happen if netero changed his mind and didn't use the rose on meruem and instead they both tried to create a "world of equals" why would Issac change his mind?

Even without nen, Meruem's body is naturally stronger than a human's. Even with nen protection, I don't think Knuckle could run away from Meruem, let alone survive a single blow from him.

[@xarion69]

he didnt even user aura to beat netero did he? just pure speed and strength

[@Exhaust_power]

I was thinking the same thing. The king without nen will still be able to kill with strength alone. But though he has a very tough body he is still vulnerable to nen strikes. Because he doesn't have nen to protect his innards .

[@observationduty]

No, that's cap. Meruem never developed hatsu or anything, but he uses nen to envelop his body and fight. We can see him use ten/ren in multiple manga panels as well as anime scenes. If Knuckle uses KO on a meruem with no nen it will kill him, or at the least it will deal serious damage.

The problem is that if you push the King into a corner he will be forced to develop a Hatsu and it will just counter whatever he's facing. Even if he runs into trouble with APR he could just develop a technique to do nen exorcism.

[@caliqm2199]

Yeah that was the case until we found out that Meruem was not a Specialist. I'm still wondering why Togashi did that,it makes Meruem less scary.

Nanika's probably the only known living thing that can one shot Meruem, of course excluding the dark continent creatures.

[@darthnihilus9342]

Well yeah, but she's a dark continent creature as well, so that doesn't really count

[@Zexceeda]

But CAN Nanika one shot Meruem? Thing is, if the kind of creature Nanika is was some all-power wish granting creature, they'd probably not be listed as a threat in a list of presumably equatible terrors. It'd be THE terror. Idk if it's limitless. Humans are relatively weak and the consequences of actions could be reversed enough to save his life, but Gon STILL lost his nen... I think that alone implies there's a kind of limit, because Gon couldn't be healed fully back to normal. Meruem is almost undeniably the strongest we've seen in the story, and I feel like there may be an almost a way of rationalizing that if Gon "might even sink his fangs into the king" in adult form, as Pitou said, and Nanika couldn't even fully reverse the consequences of that power, perhaps killing Meruem IS beyond the realm of possibility for Nanika. Because in my opinion, adult Gon might've been closer to the Meruem Pitou knew, but post-rose Meruem was a whole 'nother monster. I honestly want to think he was beyond some "instant win" button.

[@khoblivion8215]

Do you think Nanika would make request to someone if she was hidden by Meleoron using God's Accomplice? According to rules about Nanika wishes she won't make request to the last person she made requests to or if she doesn't know their name so if she doesn't know Meleoron's name or he was the last person she made requests to and then Meleoron takes her to one of Meruem's royal guards using God's Accomplice to keep them hidden and tells Nanika their names then Nanika makes several requests to one of them and because they ignore her requests they fail and when some fails they die and the person they care about most also dies and we know the most important person to the royal guards is king Meruem.

[@Zexceeda]

@@khoblivion8215 I made a comment on questioning if Nanika could even wish or command Meruem away... which I don't think she can... this is an interesting take though... I think that might work, because unlike killing them randomly just "cuz someone wished it" this kind of instant kill is far more conditional and is basically a potentially unbeatable strategy. That said, it depends on a few things... in my comment, I assumed it's a power Nanika exerts, likely intertwined with nen that she uses to kill or grant wishes... I'm THINKING the death by requests works differently than a "kill" wish. I'm thinking it probably works more like nen conditions, which basically just work like cause and effect. Nanika can't even undo the basic condition Gon faced, which was forfeiting his nen, she just saved his life. So, to go into a bit of headcanon, the "Codependence of Desire" used to describe Ai might be a form of basic nen contract... nen might also be far more of a pervasive natural force in the world than we understand if that's the case... like, by wishing, you form a contract that makes it to where there's a price you'll need to pay. Maybe the Ai don't even need to tell you or imply that, but it just works. I guess the process of nearly any wish is the ignorance of not knowing there'll be a price maybe? In any case, if it's like a nen contract, and nen contracts work like causality, then I think your idea works, because it's relying on some natural force that carries out nen (this force could also explain post-mortem nen)... tbh if this worked, it'd likely mean that Nanika's wishes work the same way, meaning she COULD kill Meruem... so maybe the Ai are just physical beings that have an inherent ability to force a nen contract with other living beings and are naturally attuned to making things happen through some natural force that carries out the functions of Nen abilities... ... and if that rant was confusing asf, I'm a dumbass, and if it were true, Togashi would probably come up with an explanation... mostly less convoluted xD

[@j.prt.979]

Nanika could fulfill a wish to kill Meruem, but the cost in lives would be insane. Heck, it might kill the whole human race. Remember the rules of the ability. Killua could potentially command Nanika to do it, but I don’t think that occurred to him maybe until they were already in the thick of things. They didn’t realize how strong the ants were until Kite was already defeated. Gon wouldn’t leave after that, and Killua didn’t want to leave Gon. Not to mention they had to defeat knuckle and shoot in 30 days. He maybe also just didn’t want to reveal that he could abuse Nanika’s ability to his family. He only used Nanika when it was absolutely necessary to save Gon. So there’s a few good reasons why he didn’t use Nanika.

[@manguy01]

Yeah, the clear choice is Knov + Meleoron. _(using Scream)_ But even that is more complicated than it looks. Chimera ants can survive after being cut in two. And Meruem is an Emitter. So, it's possible that his decapitated head could pull a Majin Buu and escape the dimension it's sent to by teleporting.

[@sabel119]

Hakoware:* has the number on its forehead doubled* Narrator: it was the first time the King felt fear

[@too_oden2199]

The only way I could ever imagine them winning against Mereum with aggression is if they used Kurapika’s steal chain ability to give Knuckles ability to Netero. Then perhaps they may be able to take down his physical body, idk

[@francisjomergallardo4593]

Not even that would work, as only Netero’s Guanyin could touch Meruem, and the user needs physical contact to activate Hakoware.

[@manguy01]

*_Correction:_* Knuckle is not an Emitter. We know from Togashi's notes from the 2022 Mori Arts Center Gallery Exhibition that Knuckle is a Conjurer. Which takes a while to wrap your head around. Also, revealed: Knov is an Emitter. I know. Strange.

[@geegoflex6762]

Hakurai takes a physical form so it makes sense people even hit it plus it also stays even when your out of range even though it does work. Plus knov has to conjure the space only once for it work due type being used and emission would be cheaper since he would regained his aura.

@@geegoflex6762 Knov doesn't Conjure his 4th Dimensional Mansion. He Emits it. Razor Emits physically touchable devils. That's not solely the realm of Conjurers. But yes, Knuckle's Hakoware makes sense as Conjuration, too.

[@giociasico]

Weird. I thought conjurers could physically create inanimate objects to which they give different kinds of effects on them. Kinda like gears/equipment in MMORPGs which have slots for gems to give them different attributes. While emitters can use their aura to manifest soul-like creatures like pets with different skills and personalities of their own.

[@manguy01]

@giociasico Kite also created Crazy Slots, remember. The differences between the 2 types of Nen Beasts are very vague. And Conjurers have to be touching / near their Nen Constructs to avoid using Emission, thus losing power. How is Conjuration _not_ just a worse version of Emission? I have no damn clue. Conjurers can impose rules, but so can Manipulation, which is easy for Emitters.

Nah, the rules of APR state that it can be paid back by dealing a blow of equal aura units, which Meruem would easily do. Anyway, the zetsu is only enforced for a month. Post mortem nen is powerful, but that doesn’t mean it can just break the conditions of your hatsu.

It would take longer, but it would mean there's no longer such a dire reliance on the amount of time APR takes to bankrupt Meruem! P.s.

[@danielclv97]

I don't think Meruem would be stronger then a human Nen-user, any human nen-user, as strong as his body could be, he would be restricted by physics, and there is just that much space for muscles and such. Yes, we did see Gon and Killua and a lot of people pushing normal physics away, like when they open that heavy door, but we can still argue it was the works of Nen even though they weren't aware of it, as it's not like we seen any super-human strengths in people restricted to Zetsu state (best example would be how Kurapika capture Uwogin with normal chains, since he was forced into Zetsu state). Regarding the fight, they would either need to wait and train Cameleon into holding his breath for 15 minutes (which is totally possible, without any nen ability, human record is 24 minutes and 37 seconds, and Chameleons, like many other reptile, can hold their breath for longer then humans), which I honestly think it would take around 1 week and a pure oxygen tank; use Knov in combination with Knuckle, since we saw how not only the people touching Cameleon but also their nen abilities goes incognito, it means that they can stay for almost 2 minutes, use Knov portals without being detected, then go back and repeat. They could also use a nen-user who can steal and give abilities like Leon and Kurapika, and give the ability to someone who can hold their breath for 15 minutes. So yeah, the reason why Nen is fascinating is that, raw strenght-points is not enough to determine the outcome of a fight. 2-3 individuals combined, that together are worth less then a nail to Meruem, can honestly take him down.

I should think Knuckle would eventually create an ability to go with that lets him borrow from someone friendly, to augment the debt. That would make this more possible, at least on a nen side. Doesn't really deal with the physical body lol.

[@tiborsipos1174]

Well... If we would want to maximise potential of success I think the best combination tactic would be Knuckle and Knov. Knuckle suckerpunches the King and Knov uses Hide and seek with the masterkey. We need to go to really specifics here and my bet would be both Knuckles and Knovs pocket dimension rule and worldbuilding level programing. What is 50/100 meters? Real world meters or the distance Knuckles has to do? Because Knuckle could be on the opposite side of the world, with Knovs ability the distance he needs to do is still under 100meters. Combining with the multiple rooms with the master key we could create some hide and seek meta. So now it depends on which dramatic effect we want to approach? a) will the King die once bancrupcy is declared b) phase2 begins and Meruem still beat the living crap of everyone with base stats? But when it comes to powerscaling things become difficult, because while he did survived a direct hit from a nuke, the poisoning still ended his life and the two royal guard sacrifice delayed his death only. So I don't really want to calculate Nukes powerlevel and Meruem mountain destroying beam, because in this case the nuke seems pretty weak... XD

[@georgplatzer8213]

The best way might be to get a breath of Archangle from clearing Greed Island and then do the Gon thing and heal back up :D

[@connerfiliatreault8907]

what if knuckle and cheetu teamed up, and cheetu's dome ability kept kunckle within 50 metres but still untouchable for the 8 hours??? That would work, even if knuckle started with like 20 aura but i guess we don't know how cheetu's ability worked. Maybe it could work though

[@berb4413]

Knuckles as one of my favorites hatsu in HxH

[@JMCxNeo1225214]

Do you think that if Chrollo were to steal Hakoware there would be any chance he could win using it in conjunction with any other abilities to stall out? Whether abilities he is already known to have in canon, or any that he could also steal to help give him an edge.

[@SunSh4dowVoD]

There is also the possibility that - since Meruem will notice APR and that it accumulates some value - he will experiment a bit, like moving away quickly (and out of range of invisible Knuckle), thus stopping APR. Two minutes seem more than plenty enough time for Meruem to figure out what's going on and just blast the area around him to bits (which kills the Knuckle).

[@blakewerner2842]

Kurapika uses Thieving Index Finger to give god's accomplice to Morel and then you redo. You might even add Smoky jail into the mix.

[@necrogon22]

Hmmm, what if knuckle hits meruem, then they both get transported to Knov's rooms, but in separate neighboor rooms, would the interest start ticking?

[@Dracogame]

I do not think Meruem has a significantly larger pool of aura than Youpi. As a matter of fact, I think Youpi has more aura than Pitou and Pouf, it's pretty much his thing. Meruem experiences a significant increase in power when he assimilates Pouf and Youpi...

[@fgregerfeaxcwfeffece]

I think with Phinks he would say: Oh, this is gonna be fun. Come on take a few more charges! I want to experience what danger feels like for a moment!

[@Flabbergastedsnake]

So knuckles and the chameleon hop on killuas back and killua uses god speed to make knuckles hit the king as many times as possible, once he is out of aura he switches places with knuckles and they hightail it out

[@logan-vq3dm]

i absolutely love knuckles nen ability, easily my favourite out of the entire series

[@CoolExcite]

The real strat would be to use a loan type ability like Kurapika's to give Knuckle's ability to a more powerful nen user

[@majintv24]

Having just finished reading yuyu hakusho id be interested in seeing a comparisson of YYH and HxH. From a prptagonist standpoint Yuseke and Gon feel very different and i like Yuseke far more

[@legend3454]

Honestly, this estimate of Meruem's power just makes Gon's rage even more insane. Pitou estimated Gon to be comparable to Meruem after he transformed. And, if I'm not mistaken, that form was Gon sacrificing his future potential just to kill Pitou which means that, at his "full potential", it would take roughly 16 minutes to bankrupt him under normal circumstances.

[@krisztiantoth3430]

Add the owl from the Phantom Troupe arc into the mix. Bag knuckle into the smallest possible bag, let meleoron attach it to meruem, and knuckle would tiny punch him from the bag. Then let him play a couple gungi and gg bankrupted xd

[@ar14237]

7:14 you did it again yes

[@inigo137]

@NewWorldReview Hey Liam, Idk if you will read this but I'd like to share a thought about another video I dont think that Netero uses conjuration and manipulation The statue doesnt remain there once the fight is over, it's not an actual object in that way, right? He transmutes his aura with transmutation making it seem like a statue and enhance its movement with enhancement, I think

[@rafaelfreire3490]

If I’m not mistaken, The Sun and the Moon (Chrollo’s hand symbols) do more damage the longer they are applied to a surface right? Maybe chrollo can store energy for like 10 years and then make Meruem go kaput? Although I doubt Meruem would die to a nen blast since Netero’s did effectively nothing

[@ammarqnft7740]

Is it possible for Meruem to "shatter" or destory APR if he uses his full power? Or is APR totally indestructible?

[@vroomzoom4206]

Actually really good vid. I love analysis stuff like this. Hits the nerd spot just right.

[@simplecrux8866]

question for man on the internet- "Do you have a personal chant/one handed prayer you use before you start recording you videos?" P.S. I watch and enjoy all your content across all your channels

[@jamesberardino5420]

He said himself in the ant arc that he wouldn't live long enough to make him go anywhere near bankrupt. Has to be within range to take effect, and (pretty sure) its effect is nullified if knuckle dies.

[@bdizzle9505]

can we do a full sacrifce gon vs meruem? i know pitou said hes stronger but is he REALLY?

[@ZMYYH]

I don't know if youve already discussed this, but what do you think would happen when Kurapika encounters either of rhe Zoldycks in the Troupe? How wouls that impact his relationship with Killua? We know there's no love lost between him qnd Illumi, but what about Kalluto?

[@mastermind3227]

Just think about the rabbit chimera Who was able to tank gon and killua attacks without nen, so just image at what Level meruem is
