"Hunter X Hunter" chapter 359 will reveal if Kurapika's sensing of a dark presence hounding Queen Oito and her child is that of Illumi or not, which was teased in the previous episode of the anime series.

It can be recalled that in the previous episode of the anime series, Kurapika felt a dark presence around Queen Oito and her child. Nonetheless, there was a possibility that she did not really sense a dark aura but was just played by her imagination.

Movie News Guide opines, though, that it is possible for Kurapika to have seen that dark aura, and it could be that it was caused by Illumi once more after his help was sought by Chrollo and the Phantom Troupe. The online publication pointed out that in a previous episode, Hisoka quipped about killing Killua after which Illumi released a dark aura, similar to what Kurapika thought he saw.

With this, it is highly possible that "Hunter X Hunter" chapter 359 will feature a tussle between Kurapika and Illumi. According to HOF, it is said that Kurapika had a glimpse of Illumi as he proceeds to the fifth deck. However, he does confront him immediately as he knew the importance of a plan when trailing an assassin, something that he doesn't have at that point in time.

It is also alleged that Kurapika considers the retrieval of the Scarlet Eyes as his top priority rather than killing the Spiders. However, if the predictions are true, HOF opines that in "Hunter x Hunter" chapter 359, Kurapika will face Illumi with a concrete plan. After all, he is known to be someone who is circumspect and does not act impulsively, always believing that it's better to take things slowly and be sure of the outcome than to haste and fail.
