10. Silva Zoldyck


As the leader of the Zoldyck family, Silva is a very dangerous man. Just like Killua, he is immune to deadly poisons and has above average superhuman strength. An example is when Silva jumps down from the sky and defeats one of the Chimera Ant squad leaders in one hit.


Silva is a Transmutter who has a high level of expertise in controlling his Nen. By using Nen, Silva can create giant orbs / particles that are very large and destructive because they cause explosions on a massive scale. This makes Silva very difficult to beat.


9. Zeno Zoldyck


Zeno Zoldyck is Killua's grandfather who is famous for being very strong at an old age. Compared to grandfathers his age, Zeno Zoldyck has a physical strength that is far above average. Not only that, he is also able to move very quickly.


Zeno is a Transmuter that allows him to manipulate aura and shape it like a dragon. Zeno's Nen technique is more likely to be used to attack the opponent than self-defense. His signature move is Dragon Dive, which allows him to create hundreds of dragon auras and rain them down on enemies like a meteor strike.


8. Hisoka Morrow


Next, there is Hisoka Morow who is very mysterious. He is a character who really likes fighting and always wants to kill enemies who are stronger than him. As a former member of the Phantom Troupe, Hisoka ranks third in terms of physical strength.


Hisoka possesses a Nen technique called Bungee Gum which allows him to create his aura like an elastic and multifunctional rubber. Hisoka also possesses another technique called Texture Surprise which allows him to regenerate his lost limbs. Hisoka's strength can be proven by the fact that he is still alive after fighting against Chrollo who is told in the manga.

7. Chrollo Lucilfer


Next, there is the leader of the Phantom Troupe organization who is very strong and difficult to beat. Chrollo is a calm man and he is highly respected by the members of the Phantom Troupe. One of the strong proofs of Chrollo's strength is that he is able to fight Silva and Zeno Zoldyck simultaneously.


Chrollo is a Specialist and he has a technique to steal other people's Nen abilities and then use them for himself. However, to do so, Chrollo must meet several conditions. Another proof of Chrollo's terrifying power is that he is able to seriously injure Hisoka.


6. Shaiapouf


From birth, Shaiapouf and the other Royal Guards were indeed gifted with extraordinary abilities. In a short period of time, they can develop their aura and are even able to match the Nen ability of Netero, the head of the Hunter Association. Shaiapouf has above average physical strength and he is able to fly at supersonic speeds.


Not only that, what makes Shaiapouf dangerous is that he is able to hypnotize his target with the special powder he creates, turn humans into Chimera ants, and give Nen abilities to others. Shaiapouf is also able to copy himself of various sizes and is able to infiltrate enemy territory without being detected.


5. Menthuthuyoupi


Compared to the other Royal Guards, Menthuthuyoupi had an appearance that could be said to resemble a real monster. Youpi has special abilities to control and modify his limbs, such as creating additional arms or eyes and growing animal wings for flight.


When he was angry, Youpi's power became even more terrifying. He was able to suppress and store his aura and accumulate a large amount of energy. Once he reached his limit, he released his power causing a huge explosion. Nonetheless, Youpi's powers became more restrained when he managed to regulate his emotions.

4. Neferpitou


 

Furthermore, there are Neferpitou who can be said to be the strongest Royal Guard compared to Youpi and Shaiapouf. Pitou have a very fast movement and is able to travel to very far places in just a short time. Not only that, they also have a terrifying aura that can intimidate high-level Hunters.


Pitou are the mastermind behind Kite's death which makes Gon very angry. They have the ability to create puppets that allow them to heal wounds or control other people. Not only that, they also have a strong desire to serve Meruem the Chimera Ant King.


3. Gon Freecs (Adult Mode)


In the third position is Gon Freecs who is the main character in the HxH story. With Jajanken's abilities, Gon is basically a very strong Hunter. However, his power is increased many times over after he is overcome by grudge and anger over Kite's death. It is this revenge that makes Gon perform dangerous actions by sacrificing his life and natural abilities.


With that sacrifice, Gon was able to surpass his limits and he turned into a grown man with a cold personality and a scary aura. In that adult form, Gon managed to defeat Neferpitou who had killed Kite and his strength could be said to be almost on par with Meruem. When faced with an adult Gon, Pitou who is usually undaunted suddenly becomes helpless and immediately loses with Gon's two blows.


2. Netero


In second place, there is the figure of the Chairman of the Hunter Association whose strength is unquestionable. Isaac Netero has spent years training his body and Nen abilities to their peak. When he is in his prime, he is called the Hunter and the strongest Nen user in the entire world. Not only that, Netero also has incredible speed despite being more than 100 years old.


His Nen ability allowed Netero to create 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattvas. The technique can release 1000 punches in less than a minute. In addition, Netero also has a very powerful technique called Zero Hand which sacrifices his life energy to fire a kind of destructive beam on a large scale. The technique he used against Meruem was able to make him experience a feeling of fear.


1. Meruem


Surely you are not too difficult to guess, who occupies the first position? Yup, she is Meruem, the Chimera Ant King. Since birth, Meruem has been gifted with extraordinary powers compared to other characters. Meruem has high intelligence and he is able to predict more than a thousand possibilities within a few seconds.


Not only that, Meruem also has super physical endurance. He was able to offset Netero's attacks. Moreover, he was still able to survive after being hit by a huge explosion from Netero's technique that brought him to the brink of death. 


Meruem also has the ability to absorb other people's Nen and use it for his own strength. For example when he absorbs the powers of Shaiapouf and Youpi to restore himself. Not surprisingly, Meruem can be called the strongest character in the Hunter x Hunter story.
