Yoshihiro Togashi has created a wonderful and detailed world inHunter x Hunter, with each person having special nen abilities. His characters show great potential and often deliver the most satisfying storylines in the series. Leorio, who is introduced as a money-loving narcissist actually wants to become a doctor and help the poor.
While Togashi often uses Leorio for comic relief, he is actually a great ally in battles. He acts like a big brother to the group, and Killua ridicules him for his older age. Many people might underestimate his nen abilities due to a late start, but he is still a genius character in the franchise with dangerous skills.
Leorio’s Remote Punch Ability inHunter x Hunter
Leorio postponed his training inHunter x Huntersince he was busy applying to university. As a result, he could only use Ten by the time he met Gon and Killua in Yorknew City. In fact, he was also unaware of the existence of other techniques. By the 13th Chairman Election, he hadimproved considerablyand had developed more Nen abilities. His Nen ability is also heavily influenced by his research in medicine.
However, Leorio does have one technique that has shown great potential, it is his Remote Punch. After striking an object in his surroundings, Leorio emits his aura that travels from the point of impact to any desired location. His ability creates a circle that is almost similar to a wormhole. This circle is produced in front of his target, and Leorio’s hand emerges from within to deliver a strong punch.

This ability helps Leorio to deliver a punch way beyond the stretching length of any normal arm. It was later mimicked by Ging, who showed that even multiple punches could be thrown if multiple hits are delivered on the object. Since Ging could see the potential of the technique, it led fans to think about how else Leorio could develop Remote Punch.
Yoshihiro Togashi Could Make Leorio’s Remote Punch Deadlier Than Killua’s Godspeed
While Leorio’s Remote Punch was depicted as an extremely funny technique inHunter x Hunter, afan theorystates that it actually holds the power to become one of the deadliest of nen abilities. At the time when it was introduced, Leorio was just learning his nen ability. But if he kept improving it and practised the technique over and over again, it could transform into something completely different.

The teleported punch could become too fast for anyone to notice, or his punch could be untraceable until it is too late and escape is impossible. In fact, rather than delivering a punch, Leorio could also teleport his hand inside the body of his opponent. Alternatively, his hits can connect to the insides of his opponent’s body rather than the exterior.
If Leorio indeed hones his abilities, he could even overcome Killua. With this terrifying skill, he could actually teleport his hand inside a person’s body and grab their heart or just teleport a random foreign object inside someone’s body.
Hunter x Hunteris available to read on Viz Media, and the anime is currently streaming on Crunchyroll.
