Kurapika and Leorio are being stalked by Hisoka, but they manage to negotiate their way out of a fight by giving him Tonpa's partner's badge. However, the encounter leaves Hisoka aroused, so he leaves in search of a new target. Gon is able to use his fishing rod to snatch Hisoka's tag right when Hisoka attacks his target. However, as Gon tries to escape, he is attacked and temporarily paralyzed by another applicant who takes his tag. Shortly after, Hisoka, impressed with Gon's patience and skill, kills the applicant who attacked Gon and returns his badge. Though Gon is reluctant to accept Hisoka's charity, he is ultimately forced to and Hisoka expresses his desire to meet Gon in the next stage of the exam. (Source: Wikipedia) Hunter Exam arc: (16/21)
