Birth of Neferpitou
"Why did you leave the other one?" Kite asked.
"If not, how will the other ants come after us?" Blaize replied casually. Hearing his answer, Kite, Gon, and Killua were speechless.
Kite shook his head. He could tell Blaize came here to have fun but what he didn't understand is, how did the other party know about Chimera Ants?
Whatever the reason, it didn't matter to him. With Blaize around, he feels strangely confident about destroying the Chimera Ants' nest.
Blaize, Gon, Killua, and Kite further advanced into the territory of NGL and came across a cliff. The group entered the cliff and discovered a drug factory, and soon after, they met a centaur-like Chimera Ant accompanied by a mosquito and a centipede-like chimera ant.
Gon and Killua confronted the mosquito and centipede-like chimera ant while Kite faced Yunju, the centaur-like Chimera Ant. When he summoned his Nen ability, Crazy slots, and killed Yunju, Blaize's eyes shined.
After the battle, the clown-faced slot explained that his slots go from one to nine, and each number sends different weapons. Annoyed, Kite dismissed his Nen ability and complained that he could not use another weapon until the one summoned by his Crazy Slots was used first.
"Your ability is interesting," Blaize commented.

When the group advanced further, they were surrounded by a large number of chimera ants in a forest-like area.
The leader of the group, a Frog-like Chimera Ant confronted them with an air of authority, "As our targets, you have three choices:
1 – Decide the order in which you'll fight.
2 – Attempt to escape
3 – Give up and let us capture you."
Kite chose option one as he wants to train Gon and Killua. Understanding Kite's intent, Blaize didn't intervene in the fight as Gon and Killua confronted the Chimera Ants.
After they won the battle, Blaize stepped forward on his own as a third person to fight. He stated. "I am going to finish them all," Kite consented with silence.
Blaize didn't wait for the ants to send their opponent, he stretched both his hands and waved. The next moment, a whitish-blue flaming ring materialized with Blaize, Kite, Gon, and Killua in the center.
"What is this?" The frog-like Ant spoke, struck with uneasiness as if he was facing death.
"Oh!" Gon and Killua eyed the flaming ring in wonder. As Gon stepped forward to observe it in close, Killua pulled him back and said:
"Don't! That thing is dangerous."
"Go!" Blaize uttered. The flaming ring expanded outward at breakneck speed, cleaving everything in its path in a fraction of a second.
Everything within a one-kilometer radius was sliced into two, including the Chimera ants who lost their lives without knowing how.
'Amazing!' Killua thought.
"It's only getting worse from here! If you start sympathizing with the enemy you won't be able to handle what's coming" Kite spoke, looking at Gon's absentmindedness.
"I'm fine. I have no sympathy for bugs who call each other trash!" Gon replied, looking around.
Hearing his answer, both Blaize and Kite shook their heads.

On their way to the Queen's nest, the group faced attacks from Flying ants. This time, Kite eliminated them all with a long scythe conjured from his Nen ability.
Witnessing Kite's power, the Lion-like Chimera Ant and his group decide to retreat while Kite decides to follow them to the Queen's Nest.
It's at this moment, Blaize suddenly glanced in the direction where the Chimer Ants' Nest is located. He sensed a birth of terrorizing ominous aura in the distance.
Without a doubt, it's the birth of one of the Queen's Royal Guard, Neferpitou! Feeling the unfathomable amount of aura from Pitou, Blaize smiled. 'Amazing! The aura density is no less than mine!'
Furthermore, he also knew Pitou's learning speed far exceeds human's. In a short amount of time, she will learn Nen and would be able to use 'En'.
'It's going to be fun fighting Pitou!' Blaize clenched his fist completely fired up, while a part of his Ren broke out startling Gon, Killua, and Kite.
Sensing his emotion, Kite asked. "What is it?"
"Nothing! You will understand soon! Let's go."
Following the Chimera Ants and after walking for a few hours, they saw Chimera Ant's nest in the distance.
"What is this? I don't believe it. Gon, Killua, run! Get out of here." Kite urged, feeling the ominous Nen of Pitou.
"Don't worry. You have me here!" Saying this, Blaize stepped forward and saw Pitou leaping towards them from Queen's Nest.
"What are you doing?" Kite yelled.
But, Blaize wasn't in no state to reply to him as he balled his fist with 'Ko'. Evading Pitou's razor-sharp claw strike, and punched at the latter's face.
"Bang!" The strike capable of crushing even the mountains just forced Pitou to skid some meters.
"Nya! You look quite strong!" Pitou spoke, showing her sharp teeth completely excited.
Though she didn't do anything, her malicious Ren of being excited caused Gon and Killua to be petrified on the spot. Facing such Nen at a close distance made them understand how weak they are.
As for Kite, he stood before the two so that he can protect them from any kind of attack from that malicious creature.
Sweat covered his forehead as he haven't encountered such a scary creature before. Just the aura alone made him feel weak in his legs.
'It should be Queen's Royal Guard.' What made him terrified is, if even a Royal Guard is this powerful, how powerful would the King be?
Looking at Pitou, the Royal Guard Ant which is devoid of any emotions, Blaize could tell, Pitou simply sees him as a mouse that she can play and test her strength as a form of entertainment.
'A Predatory cat acting on impulse to play and satisfy her curiosity.' Blaize smirked.
"Ant, your thinking is wrong. Stop thinking of yourself as a predator, you're just a prey." Saying this, Blaize's figure blurred.
The next moment, he appeared before Pitou and kicked at the latter imbuing his leg with Conqueror's Haki.
