![]() After hearing a scream, Haruna runs back to the village and shields a child from Colt. While playing, some children in the village notice big insects flying toward them. They also mention that she searches the forest for her children from morning to night every day. She wanders off into the forest despite being told to rest by the other villagers. Back at Kurt and Reina's home, their mother Haruna offers a bowl of broth to a deity and starts to weep for her children. Alligator comments that he is too stiff, but Turtle asserts it is part of his charm, and Peggy adds that the human he once was must have been pretty zealous. Upon hearing this, Colt agrees, but remarks that the quality is also important before leaving. Moreover, by competing, everyone will capture more prey. Alligator says he is just afraid of losing since his squadron is made up of the elite, and reckons he should let the other Squadron Leaders in. His assertive behavior prompts Colt to remind him that he follows only orders issued by the Queen. In the nest, Alligator challenges Colt to capture more humans than him. If that arm belonged to a Queen, she might have already constructed her nest. ![]() Even if they tried to spread the news, the underdeveloped means of transport and communication would make it impossible for them to succeed before it is too late. Kite replies they would probably do nothing, as they let epidemics run their course rather than letting international doctors in. The Amateur Hunters ask what NGL people would do if they were to come in contact with the Chimera Ants. Bringing machinery into its borders is a crime, and, according to Spinner, when in '82, three journalists attempted to trespass, one of them was sentenced to death, and the others are still in jail. It is a country founded by people who wanted to live in nature. Killua asks what NGL is, and Banana replies it is an acronym standing for Neo-Green Life. ![]() Aside from NGL, there is also the Republic of East Gorteau, and there is no getting any sort of information out of those two countries. Spinner says it might come from the Balsa Islands, including the Mitene Union, where NGL is located. She does so, and Kite tells her to go back ten days, to locate any currents that might have carried it in that time, as he believes it could have been severed when the ant made landfall. However, Kite asks her to bring up the tidal data from when the arm was found. Spinner searches for clues on the Chimera Ant's location Banana begins to suspect they are getting worked up over nothing, to which Spinner agrees. Gon and Killua suggest they search for sightings, again to no avail. She tries to check which areas have the highest concentration of missing people, but the data is two years old. Gon inquires whether it is possible to look up single people individually, but she replies that there are way too many. However, Spinner, at the computer in a hotel room, informs Kite, Gon and Killua that she cannot find anything, and in six months, the largest group of missing people numbered ten. Assuming one grew to two meters and began to target humans, there should be entire towns missing. The queen will remain in the nest until her death. It is explained Chimera Ant Queens move around until they find a place they like at that point, they birth more and more ants to form an army, and then carpenter ants to build a nest at incredible speed. Colt flies back to the Queen with his underlings. ![]() Colt commands the soldiers to capture only the fully grown individuals since they provide more nutrition. When they finally see the Chimera Ants descending on them, the villagers run away in terror. While working the fields, a man in a village sights a swarm approaching. The narrator comments that Chimera Ants are Class-1 quarantined, carnivorous insects: once they have grown beyond two meters in length, humans do not stand a chance against them. The Queen orders Colt to lead all her soldiers to capture more food, especially highly nutritious specimens. Summary Ĭolt commanding the soldiers to capture the adult humans As the ants bring more humans for the Queen, Kite, Gon, Killua and the amateur Hunters search for the Chimera Ant. ![]() She feeds on humans and gives birth to more squadron leaders, soldiers and carpenter ants. The Chimera Ant Queen orders Colt to bring her more humans. ![]()
