Regeneration ((さい)(せい)()()()()()()()(), Saisei) is the 299th chapter of the Hunter × Hunter manga, written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi.

Synopsis[]

Youpi flies from the burning gorge of the Poor Man's Rose, howling in grief as he cradles something in his arms. Pouf flies towards him, tears already flowing as his fears were becoming true even before he knew it. In unison, the two scream as they look at the King himself, who is completely unrecognizable after the explosion. With limbs blown away and skin now blackened, he is horribly mutilated beyond a doubt.

Despite this, the King slowly opens his eyes, shocking his Royal Guards. However, Youpi knows he won't last long and that it's already too late to reach Pitou. Suddenly, Pouf has an idea. He claims he can save the King by offering his cells to him. As he does so, the King begins to glow and breathe rapidly. Pouf asks him if feels all right, and the King can only describe it as "an exquisite delicacy beyond description." His compliments fill Pouf with euphoric ecstasy.

Youpi provides the King with more food as he liquefies his cells for him to drink. Like Pouf's, the King praises it as "veritable dewdrops of the angels", imagining that it had to have come from the heavens and causing Youpi to rejoice with ecstasy as well. Declaring both their offerings as supreme, the King wants more of it. Overwhelmed with euphoria, Pouf and Youpi gladly accept this as they offer more of their bodies to the King. At the same time, the two can't help but wonder why they feel this happy.

But at that moment, their questions are answered when the King tells them that from now on, they can call him "Meruem," the name that was given by his mother. Reaching an epiphany, Pouf and Youpi come to realize that this feeling is actually unconditional love, the love of a mother for her child. Now that the two had revived the King, they had become equals to the mother of their species, and both cry with overwhelming joy.
