We study the electronic instabilities of the Hubbard model in the 1/6 hole-doped Kagome lattice using the variational cluster approach. The 1/6 hole doping is unique in the sense that the Fermi level is at the von Hove singularity and the Fermi surface has a perfect nesting. In this case, a density wave is usually realized. However, we demonstrate here that the chiral $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}+id_{xy}$ superconducting state is most favorable when a small Hubbard interaction U(U 5.0t). Between them, a spin-disordered insulating state is proposed.
