Rise of the Kaizoukage X Toriko
Gourmet Adventure IV: The Beasts of Gourmet Island
Far away in a large dark cavern a large man walked towards the exit.
He wore a black shirt, black pants, dark blue boots with metal plates, a gray sash around his waist with a sword tucked in on the left side, a white neckerchief, a dark blue overcoat, a black cape with a red underside and a pitch-black blue imposing metal mask with five large spikes rising from the forehead. His eyes were featureless and demonic.
"Oi Star!" He stopped and looked over his right shoulder to see a small shadowed figure walk out from around a corner "We are going?"
"Yes, it's time to go. We've got a dinner date with the Ingredient Preparation Chief."
"Good." The shadowed figure flexed his right hand "I got some new Insects I'm sure he'd love to see." He opened his mouth slightly wider than a normal person should be able to and a pair of red glowing eyes flashed briefly in his mouth after speaking.
"Hihihihi" Star looked over his left shoulder to see a larger shadowed figure come out of another corner. "I wonder if he tastes as good as some of the ingredients he prepared." He seemed to wipe saliva from his mouth as he spoke. "Hihihihi!"
"You can eat him if you find him first." Star replied casually "After all this is a hunt and destroy mission. Now let's go. We've got only a week to get this done."
"How're we getting there?"
"If you're coming you'll have to find your own mode of transportation." Star replied as he walked for the entrance.
"Not a problem." The two shadowed figures replied. "Let's just take the Big Bang Shark."
"PAOOOOOOON" A Tundra Mammoth trumpeted loudly much like the rest of its heard had done not too long ago. PLOOOP rocketing out of its but came Toriko carrying a large piece of Jewel Meat.
"Alight Komatsu we got some Jewel Meat!" Toriko yelled happily as he held up the large shining piece of meat, varying between gold, red and pink. "Though it's a shame only one of those Tundra Mammoths had grown the Jewel Meat."
"I'm still trying to process the fact that you went in and out of each Mammoth through the butt." Komatsu said plugging his nose "I think you should take a bath Toriko-san."
"Now that you mention it…sniff…sniff" Toriko sniffed the Jewel Meat "It does smell a little like Shit."
"YOU SHOULDN'T BE THE ONE HOLDING IT THEN!"
"Sorry Komatsu." Toriko said apologetically "I just farted a little."
"I CAN'T EVEN TELL BECAUSE YOU SMELL LIKE MAMMOTH BUTT!"
"It's nothing a bath can't fix." Toriko said hoisting the Jewel Meat over his shoulder "Now come on! We've got an Ingredient to find!"
"THAT'S NOT THE INGREDIENT!?"
"Nope, I've got a feeling since the old man sent us here there's a catch as to where the hidden ingredient actually is. He did like playing pranks on us as kids after all." Toriko flashed a grin "Let's go see if we can find anything else that could be it."
"Hai Toriko-san!"
"BURAAAAAA!" Toriko and Komatsu found themselves completely surrounded by a large pack of humanoid lizards. They had grey skin and black fur on their heads necks and tails.
[Gang Hood – Reptile – Capture Level: 15]
"EYEYEYEYE!" Komatsu screamed
"Would you look at that it's a pack of Gang Hoods." Toriko said nonchalantly "Looks like they want the Jewel Meat, well if that's the case…let's see which one of you wants to cross fangs with me first!" Toriko growled out savagely as a large red skinned figure appeared behind him. The reptiles as well as many beasts in the immediate vicinity took off in fright. "Alright let's get back to hunting!Sniff…sniff Hey Komatsu you smell that?"
"No I don't Toriko-san." Komatsu said "I don't have your super sense of smell." He added under his breath.
"I smell Rainbow Fruit!"
"WHAT!? REALLY!?"
"My nose has never steered me wrong before so why should it now?" Toriko said
"But why would there be Rainbow Fruit here? I thought it went extinct."
"It was only rumored to be extinct, and that's ignoring the tree that grew in the 8th Biotope. It could be possible that this is one of the few places where it grows naturally."
"I just hope there aren't any Troll Kongs living around them this time." Komatsu said
"I doubt it Komatsu." Toriko replied as he and Komatsu followed his nose towards the smell of the Rainbow Fruit "Troll Kongs are Capture level 9, I kind of doubt they'd survive in this environment."
"GUAAAA!" A Beserkong punched at Luffy and Nami but the pirates jumped out of the way only for two additional arms from the Gorilla to swing at them, one of which was wielding a large ax.
"Watch out!" Nami yelled from her captain's back BOOOM BOOOM BOOM One of the Beserkong aimed six large cannon sized guns at Luffy and Nami and opened fire. BOOOOF Luffy inflated his stomach into a large balloon, catching all the cannonballs before launching them back at the Beserkongs, unfortunately the Gorillas all dodged out of the way. KROOOM A Beserkong swung four large morning stars down at the pair and cratered the ground.
VWIP Luffy blitzed into the Beserkong's face with his right arm stretched back and steaming "Jet Bullet!" KA-BLAM Luffy decked the beast before blitzing over to another beast. "Jet Ax!" KA-THWAK Luffy delivered a powerful ax kick to the back of the creature's head. "These guys are tough." Luffy said as he landed back on the ground.
"They're getting back up!" sure enough the two Beserkongs pushed themselves back up despite each one taking a gear second hit to the head courtesy of one Monkey D. Luffy.
"And it isn't like we can just kill them." Luffy said "That's Toriko's one rule."
"Luffy can you stall them for a minute?" Nami asked "I'll whip up a storm and see if that can get them to back off."
"Gotcha Nami!" Luffy replied grinning as Nami hopped off from his back and pulled out her Clima-Tact.
BOING Luffy shot out his left leg behind himself. SHEEEN his entire leg turned black and shiny as he threw a cocky grin at the Beserkongs "Take this, Gomu Gomu no" Luffy swung his massive leg out towards the troop. "BULL WHIP!" THWAM like a large sweeping kick Luffy caught the majority of the troop with the attack
The rubber Pirate's leg snapped back to its original length causing the captain to flip head over heels. As he did he shot his other leg out "Gear Third" Luffy bite into his thumb and blew, increasing its size to gigantic proportions before transferring the air into his leg making a large pocket of air sit behind his now massive foot. SHEEEN it too turned black and shiny. "Gomu Gomu no…"
"GURAAAAAA!" Beserkongs that weren't taken out by the bullwhip roared as they charged
"SCORPION FLAIL!" KA-THROOOOOOM Luffy swung the massive attack over his head and into the troop of gorillas, sending many of them flying.
"Nice job Luffy." Nami replied "I'm all set now." Up above the battle ground a large black cloud had seemingly formed out of nowhere, though none of the Kongs seemed to notice. KRAK-THOOOOM Bolts of lightning fell from the cloud and struck the ground around the gorillas. It was enough lightning to frighten some of them as well as knock several of them into unconsciousness. "Should we be able to pass through unhindered now?"
Luffy didn't respond. Something was wrong with the whole picture. He and Nami now had an intimidation advantage over the kongs, but it felt like he was missing something, but a scream snapped him out of his thoughts
"KEYAAAA!" Luffy turned to Nami to see her being held by a Beserkong that was much larger than the others. This Beserkong had black fur, six arms, it lacked a tail like the rest of them but it also had a massive scar where its left eye should have been and it wore samurai armor.
[Beserkong Shogun – Mammal – Capture Level: 46]
Luffy looked at the gorilla with a fierce look in his eye "Let her go." He said darkly "You big filthy monkey."
"GURAAAAA!" The ape roared.
"JET PISTOL!" Luffy fired his upgraded signature move at the gorilla only for it to vanish from sight. "That move…" Luffy said as he whirled around. The leader of the Beserkongs was now hanging from the central Rainbow fruit tree with one arm and Nami in another. BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM It began to pound its chest with its two main arms while the remaining two were now each holding a large spear.
"LUFFFY! HELP ME!" Nami cried.
Meanwhile in the middle of the jungle.
"NAMI-SWAN!" Sanji roared as he continued to tear through the foliage in search of a crying maiden. Behind the cook was nothing but a trail of fire
All that stood between the young pirate and his fiancé (as well as a tasty snack) was nothing more than an enraged and beserked gorillas and their leader. KRACK Luffy cracked his knuckles with an extremely audible crack. Red, orange and yellow flames began to dance on his hands, arms, legs, right shoulder. Mixing with the flames appeared to be a red aura, which was surprising even to Nami. BA-DOOOOM Luffy unleashed another wave of Haki, this time it had more of an effect. All the lower ranking Beserkongs dropped their weapons and backed away from Luffy, fearing the fire and fearing the beast.
Behind Luffy a large red skinned beast emerged from the flames and aura. It had shoulder length choppy black hair black claw-like nails, a wide mouth with sharp gleaming canines and black eyes with golden irises with black slip pupils.
VWIP Luffy vanished from sight and was almost immediately in front of the great Gorilla. The Beserkong Shogun responded be hurling its spears at Luffy. KA-BOOOM the force of the attack cratered the ground and sent up a large dust cloud. Luffy emerged from the debris completely unscathed.
"GRUAAAA!" the Shogun yelled ordering all the Beserkongs to attack Luffy, but none of them made a movement towards the pirate. Enraged the shogun jumped towards Luffy with its fist cocked back. Luffy cocked his own fist back in retaliation.
SHEEEEN both Luffy's and the Shogun's fists turned black and shiny. KRACK-KLANG Streaks of black lightning shot out from where the fists touched as the fists collided with a deafening ring of metal on metal. The leader of the Beserkongs recoiled its arm in pain. "GUAAAAAA!" It roared and threw a Gatling of fists at Luffy only to completely miss.
Luffy ran up one of the beast's arms, dodging each attack that was thrown at him before he vanished from the Beserkong Shogun's sight KA-POW Luffy appeared behind the beast and decked it in the back of the head, knocking it down and out. The force of the blow caused it to let Nami go and the pirate caught her before anything else happened.
"Anyone else?" Luffy asked all the Beserkongs.
The apes looked from the pirates up to the Rainbow Fruit behind them. "Luffy, I think they believe we're going to take those fruit." Nami said
"Really? That's why they attacked us?"
"Probably. They were just protecting their lifestyle." Nami replied looking up at the great trees "You know, in the sunlight they look real pretty." Sunlight gleamed off of the fruit making ig sparkle and give off a multitude of rainbows. "Think we can take one?"
"Hey you guys mind if we take one?" Luffy asked. The Beserkongs didn't respond, but their leader got back up and looked at Luffy and Nami. "You guys are really strong." Luffy grinned "So we're only going to take one, if that's ok with you."
BOOOM BOOOM BOOM The Beserkong Shogun pounded his chest and grunted as if saying yes to Luffy's request.
"Thanks! Shishishi!" Luffy began to chuckle.
FWOOOOM-THWAK Kurama used his flames to propel himself up to the dinosaur's head before slamming his knees into the beast's lower jaw. He flipped over, using his flames to keep himself upside down in the air. Kurama pointed his right arm at the beast and used his index and middle fingers like a gun. Small balls of black and white energy collected at the tip of his middle finger and compressed together into a small black ball. "Bijugan!" BLAM the humanoid Kyūbi fired the tinny ball at the creature KA-BOOOM after connecting with the Volcanosaurus it exploded in spectacular fashion, big enough to swallow the creature.
"Gotcha you son of a-" CHOMP the dinosaur shot out from the smoke and attempted to eat Kurama. The Kyūbi had to focus all of his strength into his arms and legs trying to keep the teeth "You really are a tough bastard." The Bijugan was only strong enough to blast away the mountain on the back, and now the huge beast was covered in lava like a suit of armor. "Not good." Kurama said as he saw a red glow forming in the throat of the beast.
"Horn Point" WHAM Terry smacked Chopper with his tail and sent him rocketing towards the Volcanosaurus's crown like a missile. VRRRRRMMM Chopper began to spin as he descended from above "Kakukiri: Sosul'ka" WHAM Chopper struck the beast's head with such force that its jaw opened wide enough for Kurama to escape. Terry caught both Kurama and Chopper as they fell back down. "Thanks Terry." Chopper said as he changed back into his Brain Point.
SPLOOSH the Volcanosaurus spewed a stream of hot lava from its mouth at Chopper, Kurama and Terry. Kurama clapped his hands together in a hand sign and inhaled sharply. 'Fox Flame Stream' FWOOOM Kurama released a stream of fire to intercept the lava, but it was completely ineffective as the lava pushed through easily. "Damn" Kurama said "How are we going to take that thing down? None of my attacks make it even flinch. Chopper can't you use those knocking guns on this guy?"
"I would if I knew how to paralyze it!" Chopper yelled back "WHOA!" Both Chopper and Kurama were tossed from Terry's back suddenly.
"Arf Arf!" Terry barked WHAM WHAM WHAM At lightning speed Terry attacked the Volcanosaurus three times in the blink of an eye before catching both Kurama and Chopper back on his back. "Woof"
"'We aren't trying to beat this thing. We're just trying to get away from it.'" Chopper Translated
"Between the three of us I'm sure we can take it out."
"Woof"
"'No need'" The Beast lowered itself to their level in an attempt to swallow the trio whole. WHAM The Whintersaurus, who they thought was dead, got back up and rammed its antlers into the other dinosaur's side making it roar in pain.
"WAHAHA! THE OTHER ONE'S STILL ALIVE!?"
"Terry! Let's go!" Kurama yelled as Terry bolted off in a streak of white.
"LOOK OUT!" Usopp, Brook and Franky leaped out of the way as the Goblinplant began to grow its branches and roots out towards them. Several birds and beasts were caught in the branches. Usopp, Franky and Brook watched as roots began to grow on all the beasts and literally drain the life from them, leaving the beasts as nothing more than bones
The branches reached brook and wrapped around him, but soon tossed him aside due to him being a skeleton.
"Just like the Croctopus…It has no interest in me…" Brook sulked
"I'll show you!" The Goblin plant looked down to see Brook passing it by with his sword drawn. "Excuse me; I took the liberty to do some gardening. Danse de Fantôme" Brook slowly sheathed his blade until an inch of it was still exposed "Yomikazegiri!" SHWAK HISSSS The Goblinplant's arm and leg branches were sliced off and the stumps frozen over preventing them from growing back
"Oi Usopp! Combo time!"
"Yeah!" Usopp drew back his sling shot and aimed at the Goblin plant "Hissatsu: FIRE BIRD STAR!"
Franky to a deep breath "Franky Fireball!"and exhaled a large fireball from his mouth upward at Ussop's firebird. The two attacks combined into a massive firebird and doubled its speed before it struck Goblinplant.
FWOOOOM the combo attack collided with the plant beast igniting it on fire. The Plant monster roared while it was wreathed in flame. Quickly the beast collapsed into a pile of ash and soot, all that remained were its two blue crystal eyes.
"These'll make great souvenirs!" Usopp said as he picked them up grinning.
"Could I borrow those please Usopp?" Brook asked. Usopp handed the two gems to the skeleton who promptly laced them into his eye sockets "Yohohoho! Now I have a pair of lovely blue eyes!"
"Uggghh!" Naruto groaned leaning against a walking stick like an old man "This heat is unbareable…and we're in the middle of a forest…why does it feel like a desert?"
Robin looked over her shoulder at Naruto, she herself wasn't terribly affected by the heat "Make sure to drink enough water." Robin replied "we wouldn't want you to dry out like a mummy now, would we?" This forest was puzzling to even Robin. "Hold up a second Naruto." She said raising up a hand.
"What's up Robin-san?" Naruto asked as he walked up to her and unconsciously took one step forward. WOOOSH just one step was all it took as Naruto instantly sunk into the ground
"NARUTO!" Robin yelled crossing her arms
BWOOOSH Six arms sprouted in the ground and pulled Naruto out of the ground.
"Ack! Cough…cough" Naruto hunched over and began to spit and cough up sand "cough…cough…Why the hell is there a quicksand pit in the middle of a forest?" Naruto questioned after his near death experience.
"Simple because this isn't a forest." Robin replied
"What!?" Naruto was confused
"It's really a desert. What we're seeing is simply a mirage." In actuality the knife Island of Gourmet Island was in fact a 900,000km2 desert where the average temperature of the air is 90ºC. WOOOSH With the flick of a wrist Naruto watched as all the trees and plants vanished around them and were replaced with nothing but sand and dunes.
"Please tell me we're not lost in the middle of a desert…" Naruto said dreading the response
"Don't worry Naruto we'll get out of here." Robin replied "If we can tell mirages from reality." Naruto turned and saw exactly what Robin was talking about.
Everything became twisted and distorted. The sand changed color from yellow to brown to light brown to grey-light brown to black and even red. Dunes rose up to incredible heights and twisted around like spires Sands began to form stairs and paths through the desert and air in ways that even defied gravity. Rising from the sands several creatures and monsters emerged, all of them looked and acted solid.
"Now we have to beat the desert before the times up." Robin said
"What happens if we don't?"
"We'll be mummified."
"Great…"
Behind the duo a small lone figure watched them before sinking into the sands of the desert. Robin looked over her shoulder, she was almost certain someone was watching them.
Meanwhile on the main beach of the island an army of shadowed figured landed seemingly out of nowhere, with seven figures landing as if to lead the army
"Scatter!" WOOOSH the shadows broke apart off to different corners of the archipelago leaving only the leading seven.
WOOSH WOOOSH WOOSH black figures bolted through the forests and trees of Gourmet Island. All of them were clad in black, navy blue or dark green. A large red spiral was printed on each of their backs and two smaller ones were on each shoulder. Each figure had a long flowing mane of red hair and each of their faces was covered with a mask resembling an animal. Two long katana were strapped to their hips while a large shuriken was strapped to their backs.
"Our Target is the Kyūbi we need its Jinchuriki alive for the extraction." Shimaru said through a new black Skull themed mask "Gōyoku has already begun to scour the Island. The rest of you fan out and bring me the Kyubi."
The villainous man now wore his red cloud studded cloak over his shoulders like a cape, exposing his attire beneath. It was a completely black sleeveless shirt with a low v-cut, metal bracer on his forearms, a pair of fingerless gloves with a metal plate on the back of his hands, each plate had the image of a spiral carved into them, navy blue pants, a pair of dark red baggy pants with two sections each with a set of three silver straps on each leg. The red pants were attached to a black belt that had a red spiral for the buckle.
"Kill everyone and anything that gets in your way, whether it be man, beast, woman or child." VWIP the seven remaining shadows vanished out wards in search of their unsuspecting target.
"Finally, I made it to the top." Zoro said as he finally summited the sheer cliffs that were the wine glass shaped Island. "I need some booze." He said to himself. The top of the wind glass was very impressive in terms of size and wild life. A multitude of beasts grazed on the grass and leaves from the trees without the fear of any land predators.
"GROOOOO!" Zoro turned to the source of the noise and saw a large purple brachiosaurus. Its skin was covered in patches of dark purple and it even had plants growing out of its back. There was a small drunken hue under the creature's eyes and its tongue even hung out its mouth.
[Bacchusaurus – Reptile – Capture Level 67]
"HIC" The beast hiccupped like an old drunk as it looked at Zoro.
"You wanna fight?" Zoro asked the creature unsure if it would even respond
"HIC!" It retorted as if challenging Zoro. SHWAK Faster than it could register Zoro sliced its head clean off. Some of its blood managed to splatter onto Zoro's lip and its taste stunned Zoro.
It's a beast whose bodily fluids are all alcoholic. The taste of the blood is that of perfectly aged red wine. Its stomach acids and urine is made entirely of 60% and 90% alcohol content respectively. The saliva was perfectly aged white wine. Its meat tender and soaked in all different flavors of booze.
"Don't hate me for killing you." Zoro said "But you've answered my prayers for booze, maybe there is a God." Suddenly Zoro tensed as he felt something come his way.
[Insert Zebra's Anger]
"For a small-fry you still make a huge racket!" Zoro turned around drawing one of his swords but found nothing there, except for a lone figure walking towards him. All the beasts on the plateau bolted for hiding places as of afraid of this man.
This dude was a monster. Not only did he stand at 255 cm (8.3 feet tall) but he had a half 'Glasgow smile' going all the way to his left ear, his hair was dark purple and slicked back. He had a large number of vertical wrinkles on his forehead a scowl that made his dark purple eyebrows practically invisible and cast dark shadows around his eyes. His body was just a mass of muscle and scars; he truly was a monster in appearance. He wore a dark red-brown muscle shirt, dark grey military patterned pants and black boots that went up to his knees.
Zebra of the Four Heavenly Kings had arrived.
"I didn't expect to see you here" The man said "ya little shit."
"What the hell are you doing here you bastard, you wanna fight?" Zoro demanded
"I was going to ask you the same question, but if it's a fight you want I'm all for that." Zebra replied with a sadistic grin, itching for a good fight. "This time that little fucker isn't here to interfere."
"That'll make this all the more interesting." Zoro replied tying his bandana around his head and placing Wado in his mouth before pulling out Sandai Kitetsu and Shusui. "Try to make this at least a challenge for me."
"Sounds like someone is getting cocky." Zebra said as he flexed his arms and gripped his right shoulder. "If ya' wanna die so bad, I'll gladly drive ya' to extinction!"
