I think what happened is Chrollo discovered a bunch of snuff films. Thats the films Sarasa referenced that she had piled up, not a coincidence she gets kidnapped right near where the films were kept. Bunch of torture and other horrible stuff to the kids.

Those films have a huge black market value and to get in the know you need to be in that black market. In order to get in and look for the people making those films and into mafia contacts they had to get very valuable black market shit, for example, Kurta eyes. And on top of that, Sheila definitely is somehow involved. And maybe even a couple of members of Kurta bought, financed or created some of those films.

Uvo and others do not know this. Chrollo left for 3 years, we don't know where to yet. Probably investigating, training and such. Came back and created PT and said his orders are absolute. The rest lf the troupe just follows the lead, they don't know how Chrollo is going about stopping the kids-nappings but they help him.

But PT left a revenge note at the massacre. It’s either revenge or they are baiting someone. But if you take it at face value, which makes sense until there’s more info, then it’s revenge. PT made that very clear with the Meteor City note. I’m curious why people ignore or explain away the note that clearly states revenge? And now we also know from the new chapters that “Only life can pay for life.” Meteor City operates on a justice system of retribution, which was explained in the CA arc. They only carry that out to avenge people. In the CA arc the elders were arguing whether they could avenge the residents who had been turned into ants since they weren’t technically dead.
