Gon Freechss is the main protagonist in Hunter x Hunter who has an optimistic nature and ambition to become a great Hunter. He travels as a Hunter to find Ging Freecss, his father and world-famous Hunter.
Along his journey, Gon encounters many dangerous enemies. Sometimes, Gon has to get caught up in a life-and-death battle when the enemy he fight is too strong.
Well, in this article, we want to review the list of the strongest enemies Gon has ever faced throughout the story.
10. Baro
Baro is one of the first Chimera ants Gon encounters. Baro has a physical form like an armadillo and his way of fighting is quite unique. He relies on the rotation of his body that is very fast to attack the opponent, much like Choji from Naruto.
Like Chimera Ants in general, Baro is also ordered to carry out cruel acts of slaughter. Although Baro is not an equal opponent for Gon, this character is quite suitable to be used as training material for Gon who wants to get stronger. In addition, Baro is the first enemy that Gon kills.
9. Rammot
Unlike Baro, Rammot is a Chimera Ant that has a cruel and far more terrifying nature. His appearance is very unique because his body is a mixture of a rabbit and a bird. In addition, he is able to turn his feathers into sharp blades with Nen.
Rammot was defeated by Gon and Killua at their first meeting. Because of that, he has a personal grudge and intends to finish off the two characters. In the end, Rammot was not defeated by Gon, but by Killua whose strength had increased drastically.
8. Gido
Gido is one of the experienced fighters in the Heaven Arena who has ambitions to continue to climb to a higher rank. When he finds out that Gon and Killua are new to Nen, Gido takes advantage of the situation and takes advantage of his victory.
At the time of fighting against Gon for the first time, Gido issued a series of attacks with his clever strategy. Even though Gon managed to dodge it, Gido's attack still made Gon difficult and almost lost. However, Gon finally managed to come out victorious with his strong determination.

7. Binolt
Binolt is one of the dangerous characters that Gon meets on Greed Island. He almost killed Gon if he had one chance to do so. Binolt is known as a serial killer on Greed Island. In addition, he is also very fast and has a technique that can crush the opponent's throat.
Although Binolt's strength is quite frightening, Biscuit instead orders Gon and Killua to fight him because Binolt is the right enemy for Gon and Killua's training. After going through a fierce battle, Gon manages to issue a full attack that makes Binolt lose.
6. Hanzo
Hanzo is a trained ninja who had taken the Hunter Exam with Gon and the others. In the final selection round, Hanzo must face Gon in a one-on-one battle. The fight was quite tough for Gon because Hanzo's strength level was way above him.
Hanzo was initially ruthless because he was determined to win. He did not hesitate to crush Gon's hand until Gon was helpless. However, Gon still insists not to give up. That also makes Hanzo choose to give up and let Gon win. He also acknowledges Gon's strong determination to become a Hunter.
5. Genthru
Genthru is a game player as well as the main enemy that must be faced by Gon on Greed Island. He is very cunning and manipulative. He tried to take the opponent's card in various ways. In addition, he did not hesitate to finish off anyone who betrayed him.
Besides being cunning, Genthru is very strong because he is very skilled at using Nen. He is able to turn the Nen into a very lethal explosive force. To defeat Genthru, Gon had to fight to the death and he had a very serious injury.

4. Pakunoda
Pakunoda is a member of the Phantom Troupe who takes on an important role in the story of Yorknew City. Like the other members, Pakunoda has above average strength as well as an expert in using Nen. In addition, she used a revolver to channel her Nen power.
Gon and Killua confronted Pakunoda when they tried to spy on the Phantom Troupe. Their whereabouts were quickly discovered by Pakunoda. Gon can also be defeated easily by her.
3. Nobunaga
Just like Pakunoda, Nobunaga is also a member of the Phantom Troup who is very strong and difficult to fight. He is very skilled in using Nen combined with his deadly sword. He is attracted to Gon and Killua after they are both captured by Phinks.
Nobunaga was assigned to watch over the two boys so they wouldn't run away. To Nobunaga, the two boys were nothing as he could parry the attacks of the two with ease. Gon and Killua need to rack their brains so they can escape from Nobunaga.
2. Neferpitou
Neferpitou might be considered the enemy that Gon hates the most because Pitou has killed Kite. They are a member of the Royal Guard who serves Meruem. In addition, Pitou's strength are far superior to well-known Hunters, such as Morel or Knov.
In addition to having a strong and agile physique, Pitou are also an expert in using Nen. They are able to heal wounds and perform surgeries with ease. In addition, they can control people like a puppet. To defeat them, Gon even has to sacrifice his Nen in exchange for overwhelming power.
1. Hisoka
Even though Gon has faced a monster as strong as Pitou, Hisoka is Gon's most dangerous enemy. Hisoka has a bloodthirsty nature and he is very interested in fighting strong foes, such as Chrollo. Even when he was seriously injured in battle, he even remained calm.
Hisoka has Nen which is very useful in combat. In addition, he can turn a battle situation into a deadly game that he makes. From the start, Hisoka is very interested in Gon. He always watched Gon's development grow stronger from time to time because he had ambitions to kill him one day.
