Silva VS Chrollo


It is funny how many people think that Chrollo Lucifer can kill Silva Zoldyck. Let’s face it, in the Hunter X Hunter universe (manga and anime), both Chrollo and the Phantom Troupe’s notorious reputation almost rivals that of the Zoldyck’s family of assassins.

But realtalk, Chrollo cannot defeat Silva because of the following reasons:

1. Silva is as strong as Uvo even though he is not an Enhancer
Remember when Uvogin concentrated nen to his fist and made a crater using his most powerful move, the big bang attack? Well, Silva can do the same without using nen but with just physical strength alone. This is evident when Silva also made a crater when he killed Cheetuh. Basically, due to the Zoldyck’s grueling extensive training it develops their physical strength which can be seen with Silva’s body built

2. Chrollo cannot kill Silva even if he wanted to
Chrollo loves his comrades. This is seen when he orchestrated the revenge-massacre as requiem to Uvo’s death. Unfortunately, Chrollo cannot kill Silva on their first encounter when Silva killed a member of the Phantom Troupe.
As the story goes, Silva was tasked to kill a member of the Spider. Chrollo seeking vengeance confronted Silva. Unfortunately, Silva is stronger which is why Chrollo is unable to finish the assassin despite wanting to get vengeance. But Silva Zoldyck did acknowledge Chrollo’s strength -- but sadly, it was not enough to defeat him.

3. Chrollo is afraid of death
Chrollo accepted his death but this does not mean that he welcomes it. This is seen when he tries to avoid powerful opponents. He tried to avoid Hisoka and chose a place that is truly advantageous to him. He knows that the Zoldycks will be hired to take him down which is why he had their employers killed

4. Silva is not afraid to die
The Zoldycks are assassin and they know that being killed is part of their job. Remember during the Zoldyck’s fight with Chrollo, They mentioned that if killing Chrollo requires also sacrificing their lives, then so be it. That is how committed the Zoldycks are in their craft.

5. If the fight continued, Zeno and Silva will definitely kill Chrollo
If you would analyze it, Chrollo is forced to use a poisonous knife whose venom is enough to kill a whale. But he didn’t know that it has no effect on Silva.
Chrono was able to accurately analyze Chrollo’s moves and intentions. Also, when Silva boosted his nen, Chrollo got fearfully distracted which is why Zeno is able to grab him.
Maybe Chrollo assumed that only Silva will arrive to attack him but was not expecting Zeno to tag along. So in a battle without sufficient preparation, Chrollo will lose (maybe this is the reason why it took him a year to finally decide to fight Hisoka)

Don’t get me wrong, I also like Chrollo but reality check, he is not enough to kill Silva with the given facts. The Zoldycks family is a long line of assassins trained in the art of nen. On the other hand, the Phantom Troupe is not. However, even though Silva will win, it would not be an easy win.

Let’s just say that in the HxH manga and anime, Silva is in the same level as Ging, Razor, etc.. Chrollo is just in the level of Illumi and Hisoka. This might be the reason why Illumi and Kalluto are not afraid of joining them despite knowing that Killua has direct connection with the chain user.

  1. If Chrollo cannot kill Silva, maybe Silva cannot also kill Chrollo which is why he is still alive

    1. Possible. Or maybe because Silva was not paid to kill Chrollo. Remember when how sad Zeno is when he thought he killed Komugi by accident noting that it is the first time he may have killed someone he is not supposed to

  2. Wala talaga laban c Chrollo s dalawang yun. Hanngang Illumi level lang sya at ang mag nanakaw nya pa lang na skills e mga simple lang. Wala s kalidad ng skills ng zoldycks

  3. Chrollo is a tactician. But he cannot defeat the two most powerful members of the Zoldycks. Just look at Zeno, he was able to analyze Chrollo's move and said that to steal a strong nen, it needs at least 5 requirements. Zeno also understood that Chrollo needs practice to use the nen that he stole. This is why it took him a year to select a proper place and practice Shalnark and Kortopi's skills.
    I actually like Chrollo more than Silva. But real talk, he needs to get a new and strong ability aside from the Sun and Moon (the fish and blanket are useless for combat)
