 Solution

Let $F$ define the nonsingular plane cubic and let $H_F=\det \mathrm{Hess}F$ be its Hessian curve of a plane cubic equation. The Hessian criterion for a flex applies in the allowed field characteristic. Here is the local calculation, so no characteristic-zero argument is needed.

Move any point $P$ to $[0:1:0]$ and its tangent line to $Z=0$. Smoothness gives a nonzero coefficient $g$ of $Y^{2}Z$, while the coefficients of $Y^3$ and $X{Y}^2$ vanish. ThusThe intersection multiplicity with the tangent line is at least three precisely when $b=0$, which is precisely $H_F(P)=0$ because the field characteristic is not two. The tangent cannot be a component of a nonsingular plane cubic.

If $H_F$ vanishes identically, every point is a flex by this calculation. Otherwise it is a degree-three homogeneous polynomial. Its zero locus meets the cubic by Bézout's theorem; if they share a component, that also supplies a point of intersection. Every such point is smooth and satisfies the criterion, so a flex exists.
