How will Gon continue fighting after his fight with Neferpitou?


Without nen, Gon won't be able to fight against Nen users. As was seen in the
Heaven's Arena arc, the only way to defend against Nen is with Nen, and
without it even relatively weak attacks will kill or cripple you.

At the moment, the story is on an indefinite hiatus, but if it ever gets going
properly again, Gon will not be able to fight against Nen users unless somehow
he is able to regain his Nen, whether by himself or by someone helping him.

It's obviously a different story, but I think it's similar to how after Ichigo
lost his spiritual pressure in Bleach, he was pretty weak for a while until it
was restored to him.

Alluka was able to save Gon, and it's definitely possible that either some
Hunter has the capability to restore Gon's Nen, or that somewhere in the Dark
Continent there will be a way of restoring it.

If you think about it deeply, Gon really didn't lose his Nen per se. He just
lost the ability to "use" it. Remember what Killua wished for? He wished Gon
to return _back to normal_. But what is normal?

It is heavily implied that Gon's Nen pores are just back to normal again. Even
his dad had said, that he became " _normal_ " and whether he wants to or not
is up to him.

Gon just has to re-learn Nen again, the way Wing forcefully opened his Nen
pores or the natural way.

The main problem here is the wish. That aura spread too far and that wish is
too powerful. I wonder who's gonna suffer.... ;)

I think Gon will end up tracking down and joining the Phantom Troupe in order
to regain the ability to use nen again. Also his nen category will probably
change in the process. He may end up becoming a Conjurer or a Specialist.

I agree with Shan Coralde, that Killua was just dumb about the command he gave
nanika, and should have been smarter about it, as returning gon to normal
would mean normal like everyone else. Normal could also be implied as not
having the same potential and growth rate he previously had, as that was
extremely unnatural
