Gon battles Gido and gradually comprehends the mechanics of the Dancing Tops technique, allowing him to evade attacks. Despite this progress, he cannot launch an offensive due to Gido's Tornado Top defense. Although Gon reveals hidden abilities during the fight, he ultimately loses. Following the defeat, Master Wing reprimands Gon and prohibits further Nen study until his injuries heal. Meanwhile, Kurapika is rejected for a position at the Agency. He subsequently encounters a stranger who evaluates his abilities and proposes to instruct him in Nen. This event occurs within the Heavens Arena arc, specifically noted as part 4 out of 10.
