| − | Neferpitou (ネフェルピトー, Neferupitō | + | Neferpitou (Japanese: ネフェルピトー, Hepburn: Neferupitō) was the first of the Royal Guards of the [[Chimera Ants]] born from the Queen after she had been feasting on humans on the mainland. In time, she began birthing more intelligent and humanoid offspring until she had gathered a colony large enough to protect her. It was then that she proceed to birth the powerful Royal Guard eggs and then devoted her time to giving birth to a [[Meruem|Chimera Ant King]]. Among the three Royal Guard eggs, the first to emerge was Neferpitou with the feline's great aura capable of being sensed by Nen users. At the time, Rammot and Peggy had been seeking a missing rare prey that was a Hunter named Pokkle who had survived capture and hiding among deceased bodies. Rammot then sensed Neferpitou's powerful aura as the Royal Guard entered the room where Pitou smelt the life under the deceased bones thus uncovering Pokkle's location. Through Pitou's ability, Pokkle fell under the Chimera Ant's puppet ability and taught Pitou about Nen along with water divination. After Pokkle had completed his instruction, he was no longer needed leading to him being brutally killed and fed to the Queen. It was then that Neferpitou sensed the approach of a Specialist and decided to intercept this enemy. This was actually the Hunters [[Kite (Hunter x Hunter)|Kite]], [[Gon Freecss]] and [[Killua Zoldyck]] who intended to arrive at the Chimera Ant nest in order to kill the Queen before she gave birth to the King. Kite had sensed the dark En of Neferpitou and quickly attempted to defend his two charges from the Royal Guard where he lost his arm in a sudden attack. The power of his foe led to Kite ordering Gon and Killua to flee whilst he battled the powerful Chimera Ant. Killua was forced to knock Gon unconscious to stop his comrade from fighting with the pair retreating whilst Kite battled Pitou. During the battle, Kite was killed by Neferpitou who enjoyed the battle to such an extent that the Royal Guard reanimated the Hunter's body in order to enjoy another fight. Kite's dead body was animated for use as training for the other Chimera Ants who were acquiring the ability to use Nen. Pitou continued to guard the Chimera Ant nest whilst the other two Royal Guards [[Shaiapouf]] and [[Menthuthuyoupi]] hatched from their respective eggs. Whilst standing outside guarding, Pitou sensed the presence of an aura that manifested as non-living constructs that were being sent across the jungle. Before acting, Neferpitou was approached by newly hatched Shaiapouf who warned that this was potentially a trap to draw them away from guarding the Queen leading to the two Chimera Ants remaining at their position. Afterwards, she placed Kite in medical equipment and began to conduct experiments on his biology. She was asked by Colt and Peggy to assist when a number of Chimera Ant squadrons began to disappear but Pitou stated that she was remaining in the castle to protect it with the other Chimera Ants having to deal with the attacker by themselves. |
