Chapter 331

X Day is the chapter 331 of the Hunter × Hunter series, written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi.

Summary
Cheadle consults Ging about the Hunter chairman election. He states he will leave as he already had his fun — meeting Leorio. Ging also states that he will vote for Cheadle and she wants to know when the next election, referred as "X Day", is going to happen. Ging doesn't tell her a thing, instead she asks about beating Pariston. Ging explains that Pariston doesn't think about winning, and not thinking about losing either, making Pariston powerful. It also makes Cheadle easy to read as she knows what she needs to win. Pariston knows the sides of Cheadle, and he has her pinned already. He has no intention of winning or losing, only enjoying himself like Netero and Ging.

Next, Ging also explains that when Netero blew himself up, 100 Hunter organization airships headed to East Gorteau. Those Hunters picked up around 5000 hybrid cocoons that the Chimera ants have left behind. Every single cocoon can use Nen and they have probably all hatched by now. Pariston wants to play with them in a "big garden". Ging then reveals the next Hunter chairman election — the day of the next Hunter examination. The next information will be up to Cheadle, as she is a Hunter.

The 8th Hunter chairman election is taking place, and Piyon is the host. First, the four remaining candidates — Pariston, Cheadle, Leorio and Mizaistom. Next, the previous candidates will comment. Botobai wants to entrust the election to Cheadle. They also requested the Hunter not to leave the hall until the 13th Hunter chairman is decided. They have prepared food, water, computers, toilets and others that may be needed.

Outside the hospital, Canary and Tsubone arrives on a car. Once inside, Killua steps out while carrying a sleeping Alluka in his arms. They wait inside Gon's room until Alluka wakes by himself.
