One Word ((ひと)(こと)()()()()()()()(), Hitokoto) is the 313th chapter of the Hunter × Hunter manga, written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi.

Synopsis[]

Welfin imagines his face being eaten by the King, as Shaiapouf watches on still bowing. Welfin is so full of terror and dread at dying by the King's hands, he begins to lose his fur and rapidly ages as if 100 years passed. His life begins to flash before his eyes as his human life flashes by and combines with the present. All this happens while he desperately tries to think of a single word to keep himself alive. Ikalgo's message, Pouf's secret, memories, fears, death, and survival: all enter his thoughts at once, scrambling his brain as he stands speechless in front of the King.

Chap 313 - Welfin uttering Komugi's name

Welfin uttering Komugi's name

Finally, knowing he has one second to live, he whimpers out, "Komugi...?" Pouf and the King are stunned, especially the King, whose memories of playing Gungi with her return. Pouf instantly realizes how much he cares for her, blood still dripping from his mouth and nose, and tears streaming down his face, realizing that all hope is lost.

He's shocked Komugi could have such an incredible impact on the King, even after his amnesia. The King asks if this was the secret Pouf was keeping, and he says yes, and awaits punishment. The King says he knows his answer without his expressing it, since the two are of one mind now. He doesn't blame him, asking him to look for Neferpitou and to release Knuckle and Meleoron after the two are questioned. Pouf accepts his loss and tearfully nods in assent.

At the same time, Meruem realizes Ikalgo and Palm must have been the ones moving Komugi underground. The King turns to Welfin, asking if his hatred toward him has to do with the octopus. All the King wants to know is if Komugi is there. He says he will gladly let Welfin go free for helping him remember Komugi. Welfin tells him they're in Bizeff's quarters. As the King walks away, Welfin screams out how Gyro is his one and only king. Meruem hopes Welfin can see Gyro one day, and that he can possibly live a human life. Pouf screams out in anguish as the King slowly walks away.
