Chapter 346

Options (選擇, Sentaku) is the 346th chapter of the Hunter × Hunter manga, written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi.

Synopsis
Kurapika and Mizaistom reach the Hunter Organization's office and are greeted by Leorio and Cheadle. Cheadle leads them to the room in which the other Zodiacs were seated, and the meeting begins.

Cheadle begins with informing the Zodiacs that the V5 have now been turned to V6 due to the recent circumstances and the Kakin were promoted as the sixth. She then states that the V5 had tried numerous times to enter the Dark Continent but have failed each and every time due to the "5 Great Disasters". She then proceeds to inform them that the danger rank of the 5 Great Disasters has risen from rank B to rank A, which even surpassed the Chimera Ants at rank B.

Cheadle then reveals their objective: To capture at least one of the 5 Great Disasters and survive the trip back, and also to deal with Beyond.

Cheadle then inquires if anyone has a question to which Kurapika raises his hand. When given the permission to speak, he asks all the Zodiacs if they had identified any of Beyond's allies that are in the organization. He then proceeds to explain the reasoning of his question, stating that as Beyond was expecting his father's death, he must have planned his involvement with the association beforehand. He also confirms the theory that Pariston and the Kyousen hunters were some of Beyond's allies.

Mizaistom, realising that Kurapika's statements could lead to certain complications, leads him outside and reveals that he and Cheadle had came to the same conclusion as he (Kurapika) did, and requests him not to mention anything about moles in the Zodiac again( as it would put the mole on alert), to which Kurapika agrees.

When the two return, all of the Zodiac members reveal the roles they will be playing in their voyage to the Dark Continent.

A month later, Ging shows the members of the Expedition team a trick that he could do using his Nen. While the other members try to master the trick, a member approaches Ging and challenges him on a vocabulary match to see who knew the most words of the ancient Kappese language that began with 'N'. Ging wins the contest easily and the member accepts him as Number 2 and his money as well. Pariston then suddenly shows up and informs Ging that all the assassins that were sent in the Hunter Exam failed and acknowledges the ability of his replacement in the Zodiacs (i.e Kurapika).
