okay but what if all that broken goated nen ability aboard the black whale not only causes the ship to explode and sink, but!!!! it creates an unbelievably massive tsunami that has multiple impacts:

1. ging, pari, & their expedition crew, who are also likely at sea, now have to contend with this bullshit. in my head, this is how we get to Finally learn some of their nen abilities. same with the zodiac, if they haven't used their abilities before the ship goes down. they're only going to show their hands if shit is REAL dire, which it would be here during the fallout and resulting battle (point 5)

2. the waves are gonna hit land pretty much on every continent. this is when we're gonna get the bbies looped back in!!! gon will have to defend whale island, and kiki & allunanika defend....wherever tf they are...and this seismic event will get them back in touch bc it's a global catastrophe

3. given the above two points, it's likely there will be a HUGE distress call to save others from the remnants of the ship, which gon, killua, allunanika will do

4. if this happens, illumi will be reunited with killua and allunanika, which is what he very much wants to have happen for his Plan

5. the ship going down likely wont impact the big players bc of the whole broken goated thing. so i can see a large battle playing out between a. the remaining princes vs ging/pari's team, which beyond will obviously support. and b. the zodiacs vs morena and her crew, which i can see illu joining with killua and alluka under his control. this battle could go down on the Fake DC
