Muherr's soldiers open fire and Ging ends the fight almost politely — copying Leorio's remote punch, a talent for imitating any physical ability that has hit him — then names the whole ambush as Pariston's stage play. What follows is stranger: a confession. Ging admits the money offer was him blowing off steam at losing the Dark Continent to Beyond, routes it into a fund for fallen soldiers' families, and is accepted as No. 2 — under Muherr's absolute battlefield command.

Muherr explains why the money offer nearly broke the team: soldiers run on trust, and a rumor of being bought is ostracism. Ging apologizes, routes the money into the Norwell Fund for fallen soldiers' families — binding himself under mercenary account rules — and is accepted as No. 2, with Muherr holding absolute battlefield command.
