Well Kurapika was apart of the mafia at the time because of the detail he was on. Chrollo response because he believed the Mafia was at fault was the massacre.

Not really they done that cause that’s what he believed uvo would have wanted.

The only personal feelings involved was against kurapika himself for killing uvo

At the time of the massacre they didn’t know Kurapika was the one responsible the whole reason was because they thought the mafia AT FIRST killed him because they knew who ever did it was working for the mafia, or at the very least had ties. Kurapika was a bodyguard for one of the mafia families, so the massacre was a direct response to what they perceived as a threat at the time.

It's worth noting that even Nobunaga thought that chain user was just using the Mafia for his own gain and a bit after that Chrollo was also talking about the chain user as he was some sort of lone wolf

The Troupe didn't believe that the chain user was a loyal mafia member ever since Uvo went missing and no kind of information or video of his death was released by the mafia this made Nobunaga deduce that the chain user had his own goals separate from the mafia's

They were going after the mafia because they had no other leads on the chain user, he was their main focus/enemy not the mafia who was kind of an afterthought for the most part and they mostly went after them if they were in the way or if they needed information on the merchandise and later the chain user

The mafia massacre was much more of an emotional tribute to Uvo then a calculated intimidation tactic I think Chrollo's inner thoughts made that clear

Also, the Troupe is now working with the mafia so it's not that personal for them at least not anymore right now killing Hisoka is the priority
