Bring me the head of Hisoka...!!
This is the B.W. 1. A super-giant migration ship shaped like a black whale, capable of carrying up to 200,000 people. The ship is divided into five vertical tiers. Tier 1 houses the Kakin Royal Family, political and business elites, and Mafia executives. Tier 2 is for the wealthy, while Tiers 3-5 are for general passengers. Tiers 2 and 3 are completely partitioned off.
The Princes of the Kakin Empire are killing each other to become the next King.
The Phantom Troupe's main goal is to kill Hisoka. They aren't working as a team; it's a race to see who can kill him first.
You can enjoy the story from the perspective of the Phantom Troupe or the bodyguards.

Succession Contest & Phantom Troupe
Information regarding the Princes and the relationship between Hisoka and the Troupe. Thanks, wiki.
Inside a room on the B.W. 1, all members of the Phantom Troupe have gathered. Chrollo, Nobunaga, Franklin, Bonolenov, Kalluto, Phinks, Feitan, Shizuku, and even Illumi. Everyone except Illumi and Kalluto has the eyes of a dead fish.
The room is silent, heavy with the murderous intent directed at Hisoka. Illumi is the one to speak first.
Hi, I'm Illumi. The eldest son of the Zoldyck family, and Kalluto is my younger brother. I've joined the Troupe this time at Hisoka's request.
He ignores the "I don't understand what you're saying" glares from the other members and continues.
Resting his elbows on the table, he continues in a flat tone.
The target he requested was Hisoka himself. It's a prenuptial agreement where I get a reward if Hisoka dies. That's why even I don't know where he is.
He finishes his explanation, but the other members don't seem to be listening. They are in no state to listen, consumed by their rage toward Hisoka.
After Illumi finishes his introduction, Chrollo speaks quietly, his eyes still dull and lifeless.
...I want to have a party, but we have no cake. A custom-made one to place at the center.
As he speaks, he removes the bandages from his forehead. The cross tattoo casts a shadow. His eyes are as dark as an abyss.
With his hair now parted in the middle, he stands up quietly and continues with his eyes closed.
Once we have it, we shall gather again and dine at this table.
There is something in his voice, something like a suppressed, boiling rage.
