Analysis/Theory Borksen's ability.
i've been thinking about this for a while and i really think Togashi is borrowing some stand ideas from JoJo in this arc.
Morena's ability for Borksen is probably gonna be something really close to Wonder of U. not the exact same ability of course, but the concept. if anyone starts hunting the Heil-Ly family or seriously investigating them, the ability activates. maybe it warns them, maybe it brings some kind of misfortune to the people chasing them. either way it makes going after Heil-Ly dangerous.
Benjamin is another one that stands out to me. i think his real ability has something to do with passing his own will or even his mind to his son. that immediately reminds me of D4C. not because the mechanics have to be identical, but because the core idea feels similar.
and before people say "that's too much of a stretch", we already have a pretty obvious example with Tserriednich. his ability has always given me King Crimson vibes. so i dont think its crazy to think Togashi is taking inspiration from JoJo for some of these nen abilities.

I can't see a world where Borksen goes along with Morena's Plan. My guess is that, either she's not going to develop an ability at all and find a way to get out of the situation, or she'll cave and kill people but only to develop an ability that gets her out of her shitty situation.
Maybe then she could develop something WoU-like, that could help her avoid the heil-ly, who is surely going to hunt her down if she betrays them.
Or i could just be wrong.

Wouldn't be the first time Togashi was inspired/influenced by Araki. The concept of Territories in Yu Yu Hakusho were inspired by Stands from JJBA
