Narrative:

I was working the D4 when D3 called me for a point-out for aircraft X heading westbound along the sector 3/4 boundary. I approved the point-out because his route appeared to not be a factor for my traffic at that time. Once aircraft X approached the boundary between sectors 3/4 and hcf approach; aircraft X took an unexpected sharp left turn southbound straight towards aircraft Y and our string of inbounds into hnl as well as being in the middle of the departure corridor. We reached out and had aircraft X turned out. We also turned aircraft Y left to the southwest to avoid aircraft X. After that aircraft X went NORDO. After some time; aircraft X came up on our (sector 4) frequency and wanted to descend and cancel flight following in the vicinity of julle right in the way of both the departure and arrival corridors to land on the ship that was apparently in that area. The r-side tried vectoring aircraft X southeast out of the way of the traffic but aircraft X left frequency again.my biggest recommendation to resolve this conflict from happening again is to not have the aircraft carrier stationed in the middle of our corridors.
