The third stage demands that participants descend a tower alive. The group must ally with Tonpa to win three out of five matches against tower prisoners. Tonpa faces a hardened criminal in the first match but immediately surrenders. He reveals that he has no desire to become a Hunter, stating that he merely enjoys watching others fail and die. This event occurs during the Hunter Exam arc, specifically at point 13 out of 31.
