None of the ants is fast enough to attack Netero, they will have to read his flow just like Meruem to defeat him.
surprisingly Pouf has the best chances againt Netero, he can read his Netero's flow with spiritual message and even control him with his scales. Netero can't hold his breath as long as Morel. Pitou is smart enough to pick up Netero's attack pattern. Youpi? not a chance.

Yo Mama..I agree with most things you say...but Netero is pretty damn good dude.
Let's not forget, he has plenty of feats in the hunterverse, his move is virtually unbeatable, the chimera ants are from the dark continent so that proves that they are beyond most pro hunters, and the fact that netero came out alive from the dark continent proves how epic he is.
From what we have seen, Netero is easily top 4. The rest of the hunters including legendary Seirin are a myth so far. Until we see others he is secured in one of those spots
OT : Beyond is probably sicker, netero named his son such for the purpose of surpassing himself

Lol None of the RG can beat Netero. He already smacked the strongest at full power and guess what, that wasn't his strongest technique Lol. Probably his weakest given the fact that we never saw him use it against the King.
Boy, I'll take anyone here trying to argue this.

Pitou couldn't fly and she was in mid-air. Meruem, who's much faster than Pitou, stated that Netero is much faster than him. Pitou wasn't at full power too, as she didn't activate her ability. That's just one of Netero's hands blowing her away.
No one should be capable of following Netero though, at all. Meruem couldn't have done it without the experience, skills, and tactics he learned from fighting Komugi.
Zero Hand would probably take out Pitou. Ninety-Ninth Hand would probably take out Youpi. Third Hand would probably take out Pouf.

The Netero wank in this thread is too much, guess that it's time to burst that bubble.
Pitou was slaped before Meruem got a power-up and she had a few scratches and a bit blood coming out of her mouth. Pouf was slaped after he Meruem got a power-up, he was sent flying but also had a few scratches and a bit of blood. Youpi was also hit after Meruem power-up, he sent flying but he only got a few scratches.
Now lets see how much damage Netero's hand has done to Pitou.
Nothing, absolutely nothing. If Netero had slapped Pouf or Youpi then they would also have tanked that. Meruem only felt a dull pain after being hit hundreds thousands time. Meruem is without a doubt stronger then his guards but the power difference is not as big as some of you think.

Morel tells Gon, Killua and Ikalgo that the royal guards whould never harm their king and that the other ants couldn't even scratch him. Implying that the royal guards would be able to if they were not so loyal. A feat Netero couldn't achieve even after using the Zero Hand. The Royal guards can tank Netero's attacks for a long time. The question is wether they can read his flow like Meruem could. Pouf obvious can do that and he has an attack move that can finish Netero. Pitou maybe, Youpi probably not but he will eat all Netero hands and there is even a chance that he survives zero hand.First of all, Pitou wasn't ready when she was hit by the king, neither the rest of the Royal Guards. When Pitou got hit by Netero, she was at least a bit ready to fight, she even most likely used Ren there, and was about to use her Hatsu, but was blown away. No one was blown like that by the king. Even after clinging to her ability most likely as strong as she could, she was over half a kilometer away from the palace.
After thousands of hits, the king felt pain, and we know that he's way stronger than any of the RG. Meruem rivals Adult Gon who oneshotted Pitou.
I admit that to take out Pitou, Netero would need to use the combination of all of his techniques (excluding Rose of course). I don't think he'd need to use Zero Hand against Youpi though, and he wouldn't need to use his Ninety-ninth hand against Pouf.

Nen users are always in Ten state, Royal Guards were born WITH nen. Pitou took out Kite on her first day in NGL. Pouf was able to read Pitou's mind on his first day. Killua noted that Pitou couldn't tank Gon's normal Jajanken when she was using all her nen heal Komugi. They obviously tanked Meruem's hits while they were in Ten state.
I already showed that Pouf and Youpi tanked hit's from Meruem when he gotten stronger. While Pitou tanked before he ate that nen user. Try again and this time with manga facts
My thoughts exactly. Nice explanation. I don't know why people think Netero is that far above the bodyguards if any. I'd even add that Pitou thought she had a chance against awakened Gon she said to be on Meruem level if not above and i consider Youpi stronger(he has 100times Morel's aura or something like this). The power difference wasn't that great

Pitou had a mental disadvantage from the get go and we have seen time after time that character who should have a chance in the fight get owned because of this. For example Killua vs Rammot, first Killua was stressing and got his ass beaten and then vice versa happend with Rammot. I believe that a rematch between Adult Gon and Pitou could have ended differently. I also believe that Youpi would have survived the zero hand, he would be in worst shape then Meruem (who only had scratches) but he would still be able to finish off a dying Netero.
Yeah the power difference isn't that great, one of the reasons why HxH is so good.
You realize Pitou was fighting at full strength according to the author
You must be registered for see links
Meaning she went at Netero at her best, with her best. Nothing she has to offer would be better than that since that was full power since Techispora puts her above her limits

Manga says

It only requires 0.1 second for Pitou to change from Manifestation to Attack and yet Netero completed his movements between that period
You must be registered for see links
" He had already completed his movements..."Notice how that same scan says the movements was slow and extremely elegant to Pitou at full strength? Notice how it was said Pitou had to place himself in a suspended state of time as stated in the scan at full strength in order to see his movements?
Zeno already said his attack can't be predicted
You must be registered for see links
because of his quiet Aura. Pitou couldn't reacted to his attack and even predict it's position until she was hit
You must be registered for see links
As for the attack not having an effect, that attack wasn't as strong as the ones he used against the King. If not, we would have seen him use that same attack against the King but he didn't use it against The King implying that the one against Pitou was nowhere near the one against the King. Not to mention let's look at what a single hand did to someone that showed far more durability to Pitou
You must be registered for see links
. The King survived Miniature Rose...that's way past Pitou's durability if a single slap with his tail could do that much to Pitou. Manga said the continuous hits from Hyakushiki Kanon caused the King dull Pain inside
You must be registered for see links
. Meaning eventually it could have completely put him down if it continued and we know why the King was able to predict it
You must be registered for see links
. Pitou has no knowledge on this Game so she basically has no way of getting around it. We also have this
You must be registered for see links
which Pitou has no knowledge on where it appears from since she can't predict his Aura flow seeing as this is how it locks him
You must be registered for see links
and it did this much damage to one who survived the Rose
You must be registered for see links
It got to an extent where the King felt pure admiration for Netero and said he's a better weapon than himself

. There's no portrayal that puts Piotu above him.Youpi is stronger than The King? Ok this is getting Ridiculous Lol.
He's not surviving Zero hand when he got paralyzed by this Narukami

I wonder what other feat is there? Lemme guess, punches from Knuckles and Shoot? Makes one think Youpi has what it takes to stand Zero hand Lol.

Netero wank is real!! the dude is over 100 years old. Yeah maybe at this age he isn't that strong. But at his prime he was probably way faster and stronger. The king and guards were born like 4 weeks earlier in peek shape.
Lets not forget he was a part of the legendary Seirin.
Never take he Chairman's name in vain. RIP LOL

I know they were hit in Ten state. I'm talking about when she got up to attack Netero himself. We've seen that her aura was getting explosive, and she jumped and tried to activate her Hatsu before getting blown away. That's a much better state than getting hit in Ten.Nen users are always in Ten state, Royal Guards were born WITH nen. Pitou took out Kite on her first day in NGL. Pouf was able to read Pitou's mind on his first day. Killua noted that Pitou couldn't tank Gon's normal Jajanken when she was using all her nen heal Komugi. They obviously tanked Meruem's hits while they were in Ten state.

Obviously she couldn't take on Enraged Gon's Jajanken Gu. She didn't have her aura when she was healing Komugi.
As I said, Pitou gets taken down by all of the attacks in Netero's arsenal. She can hide and heal herself if she ever needed that. I doubt Netero would need to use Zero Hand on Youpi as he'd continuously hit him with his statue. And again, I doubt he would need to use his Ninety-ninth hand to take out Pouf. I can think that First Hand (chopping) and Third Hand (clapping) would get the job done at taking him out.

Pitou is not fast enough to attack Netero head on, I acknowledge that already in my first post. However speed isn't the only way to defeat Netero. Endurance and intelligence play the biggest role here.
Just because Pitou didn't fully grasp Netero's attack after 1 hit doesn't mean that she can't do it after a while. Meruem understood how Netero's attack works

Zeno was obviously overrating Netero, Meruem was able to predict his moves and he thought that it was impossible.Wait, what? are you writting your own fanfiction now? Show me a scan that backs this up. Netero attacked Pitou with a hand that was strong enough to trow her out of the battle field. He wanted to take her out of the action yet you believe that he used a weak hand for that? Come on.
This part has so many holes that I don't even know where I should start.
First off, Meruem doesn't have scratches on his face, thats just dust.

is Meruem right before Netero used the Zero Hand. As you can see, no scratches on his face.Netero would never have defeated Meruem with his hatsu, I mean look at

before the even heard of Gungi, Komugi just made him better. It's a simple way to counter Netero's hatsu but its something not everybody can do. I will be honest, I'm not entirely sure of Pitou can read Netero's flow and predict his moves. But she was able to find Netero when it look like it was a impossible task.

. Although she is not as smart as Meruem or Pouf, her intelligence is definitely not something to be taken lightly. Remember how she successfully opened Pokkle's brain and poked it untill she got all the intel she needed
You must be registered for see links
. And she did that on the day she was born.So to conclude this, Netero might be able to defeat Pitou but it will not be as easy as you make it out to be. I'm honestly suprised that your so convinced that it will be a easy win when

the moment Pitou activated her doctor Blythe.When did I say that Youpi is stronger then the king?
Everybody, even Meruem would be paralyzed by Narukami. But that means nothing if you can't finish the person while he is paralyzed. We know that Killua always goes for the kill if he can. And although Youpi was at his mercy for a while he couldn't injure him at all and Killua ended up running for his life. If anything, this shows how much Youpi can endure.
The thing is, Zero Hand did almost nothing to Meruem and seeing how all the royal guards have crazy aura. There is a good chance that they can survive it as well. Especially Youpi who is an enhancer.

Freecs, I have a hard time taking your arguments seriously when you claim that 1 or 2 hands are enough to kill Pouf a royal guard who have gotten Knov out of the battle with his aura and made Palm try to commit suicide the moment she laid eyes on him. And to add insult, you don't even try to explain how Netero could counter Pouf scales and the fact that out of all the ants (including the King) Pouf will probably be able to read Netero's flow the fastest with his spiritual message. smh
About the Ten stuff, you got it backwards. Pitou would have less aura for defence if she is attacking somebody. Remember the rules for Ryo.

Intelligence which Pitou lacks. The King showed far more than Pitou and openly said the games with Komugi helped him
You must be registered for see links
. No intelligence of Pitou's level would help him here. Not a chance of that happening when the King learns the mechanics of professional games within minutes and beats the best in their various fields after a few games. The mere fact that it took over thousands and hundreds of Punches. You people really compare the Ptiou's durability to the King's.There is nothing in the entire Manga that suggest Pitou can. Not when the King said his games with Komugi (Notice how he said Games)
Emphasizing on the fact that it took more than one game and more experience from this game to help him know the mechanics behind this.
Overrating Netero? Lol No he wasn't. Zeno in the top left panel here
You must be registered for see links
Says The authenticity of what he's saying is even easier to measure than Netero's" Meruem being able to predict his move was due to the Games with Komugi and he was already starting to feel Pain inside of him.
Fan fiction or fact. Netero didn't attack Pitou with a hand. This is a weak blast and not a hand

Netero here said he wanted her to disappear off to a distance implying that his intent wasn't exactly to kill her(rather get rid of her obstructing them)
You must be registered for see links
but he still disposed of her easily. Did we see that same attack against the King? No. Implying that the ones used against the king were stronger. We didn't see his buddha against Pitou as well.I'm glad you said Meruem and not Pitou
The King was feeling Pain inside of him so his outward appearance doesn't really matter. There was barely a scratch on him earlier on
You must be registered for see links
and Pitou is nowhere even close to the King so why she gets some of his durability feats is what I don't get.It caused him Pain so if it went on and on with him not being able to counter, it would have eventually weakened him after a very long period of time.
Did you just say little Lol? What? The King even said it was a wonderful attack. How is that little damage? Wow. The Pitou part is fanfiction..Her durability feat is nowhere near The King's. Nothing suggest so..She'd either get slapped by HK for a very long perioud before she dreams of figuring the mechanics behind it which won't happen and even if it would ever happen, Zero hand would add to it leaving her finished. Not a chance of Piotu being close to the King in terms of durability.
It doesn't matter since Netero's aura flow is quiet. If he could read it, then he'd have predicted his attacks a long time ago but he openly said the games and experience helped him counter it. Meaning his ability to read the aura flow didn't matter since he couldn't see the attacks. If he could read his aura flow, he won't have been grabbed behind by Zero hand
You must be registered for see links
since it's a focus of Netero's aura. There's nothing to arue when he openly said the Games with Komugi.Zeno is intelligent as well but openly said no one despite his Grandfather(Maha) battling Netero could predict his attack from the flow of his aura
Alright it won't be as easy but he definitely wins seeing what he was doing to someone that shook Pitou to this extent
