It has been said that there's a dessert of yaki soba, it's noodles baked to perfection from the sun, and covered in a sauce more life giving then water itself, they call it: the Yaki-sahara. And that there's a tree that has chocolate for sap, which flows over its own fruits for dessert that is healthy and sinful… they call it: the chocolate fundo. This is the Gourmet age, where the world's manliest heroes quest for undiscovered culinary delights.

Zack with Blake and Taokaka are with Toriko and Komatsu on a train, and Zack and Toriko finish with their drinks.

Zack: (sigh) sweet.

Toriko: ah, that hit the spot.

Komatsu: Are you planning on leaving any booze for any other passengers Toriko?

Toriko: don't judge, I'm just excited! Just think the five of us will be hunting the legendary puffer whale!

Taokaka: puffer whale sounds so tasty! Tao wanna gobble it all up!

Blake: I would love to try it.

Zack: same here.

Toriko: Are you two amped up for this bros?!

Zack: hell yeah!

Komatsu: yeah I'm cranked up to 11! They say puffer whales are the most unique of all deep sea mammals, but they can only show up somewhere we can reach them one a decade! Now that time!

Toriko: puffer whales is a delicate blow fish rolled in fatty tuna and dipped in whale stew, it is divine. I can't wait.

Zack: so does Tao and Blake.

He turns to see them drooling from the thought of tasting the puffer whale.

Zack: hehehe easy you two, we'll get it, but it won't be very easy first.

Toriko: oh (turn ti Komatsu) you're more interested in how it's cooked rather than how it tasted aren't ya buddy?

Komatsu: oh, I'm glad you understand, it's really important that I come on this one cause it's also the first time in a decade that anyone has a chance to see how it's prepared. The poison sack is so hard to remove it's classified ingredient readings special prep and in ISP Toriko, ISP!

Toriko:(eating the hamburger) that's true, only 10 men in the world can prepare what won't kill ya , and what we're meeting with is even a chef.

Zack:(eating the hamburger) I'm familiar of puffer fish before like this, but I can try on puffer whale

?: HEY JERK!

The two of them turn to see a large and muscular man with an intimidating appearance. He has a large mustache that connects to his sideburns and a large scar over his right eye, while his long hair flows over his shoulders and is parted in the middle. He wears a simple outfit apparently made out of fur, which gives him a somewhat caveman-like appearance. He also carries a large ax on his back and wears a headband and skull necklace. With him are two people. Ones a young light-skinned man of average height with spiky auburn hair, and like the large man, he wears a dark green-colored fur top with no sleeves, a green headband, and green wristbands. The other is another young light-skinned man of average height with a bald head, and like the large man, he wears a brown fur top with no sleeves, a yellow headband, and yellow wristbands.

?: THE BARTENDER SAID THAT SOME BIG ORANGE CLEARED CLEARED OUT A BUNCH OF HOOCH AND LOOK WHO WE GOT HERE!

Zack: (Blink twice confused) huh?

?: I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE MUNCH BUT YOU'LL REGRET IT EVER MEATING GOURMET HUNTER ZONGEH!

Toriko and zack: huh?

Zack looked at Blake, but she just shrugged. Zack then notices his root beer bottle is almost empty.

?: we're not done yet! (digs into his fest)

? 2: strap yourselves in, time for Zongeh's full course menu of life!

The one in the yellow bandana pulled out a rolled up paper and showed it to the five of them… and it's very terrible…..

Blake: Are they for real?

?: and finally the main course is a rare gararagator!

Zongeh: that's right, a Gararaga-

Zack: So what, I already ate one and it's twice as delectable.

Zongeh: oh yeah ? jealous ?

?: now the tail is 3 feet long

Zongeh: so hand over the booze and root beer if you want to-

Toriko and zack got up, zongeh is shock and scared of how tall toriko and he recognize zack's face.

Zongeh: GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH! IT'S THE GOURMET TITAN! EVERYONE THE GOURMET TITAN IS BACK!

Zack: huh? No you got the wrong guy, I'm not the gourmet titan.

Zongeh: I'M NOT WRONG! YOU ARE THE GOURMET TITAN ANDREW!

Zack: no, he's my dad, I'm his son.

Zongeh: No way, you have his looks alright! Your devoutly Andrew.

Zack facepalm while toriko and blake chuckle a bit.

?: (whispered to ?) you sure that's him?

? 2: I mean he looks like him.

Zack: this guy makes tao like she has munch brains, better play along.

Zack wink at toriko, blake, taokaka and Komatsu, turn back to zongeh.

Zack: yes I'm Andrew, you caught me.

Zongeh: I KNEW IT! So you're going for the Puffer Whale yourself huh? HA HA HA! I mean you do have an impressive amount of gourmet food in your menu of life.

Zack: Actually, I'm going with my friend here, I hope it doesn't bother you and your teammate too.

Zongeh: HA HA HA!

zack: anyway it's nice meeting you zongeh and nice job of the gararagator.

Zongeh: HA HA HA HA! BEING PRAISED BY THEE GOURMET TITAN IS SUCH AN HONOR!

Zack: uh yeah. (Pulled a crate) anyway here, have some booze.

Zongeh gasp of joy, then shaken as accept the booze and walked away with his two followers.

Komatsu: I can't believe you imitated Andrew like that! For a second there I was sitting with him!

Zack: really? I still have no clue how he does it in here nor a gourmet hunter,(shrugged) so I just pretend the best I do.

Komatsu: well I'm sure you'll see him again Zack.

Blake: and Zombie will be surprised that they'll be two of you.

Zack: yeah about seeing my dad, well.…

Toriko: hey don't beat yourself up, your dad is a legend in the gourmet world, in fact he's the guy who knows the big names around here.

Zack: (smile) yeah, and that's how he taught me to be a man.

Toriko: You know that some people molded their lives just to be like him as well, but just a fraction are able to match him with a 50% chance.

Zack: And what about my mom?

Toriko: I don't know, what's her name?

Zack: akaru (shocked toriko and Komatsu)

Komatsu: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! YOUR TELLING ME THAT YOUR MOTHER IS THEE AKARU?! THE GOURMET CHIEF/HUNTER OF THE COSMOS!?

Zack: Let me guess, her too? And everybody heard of her?

Komatsu: OF COURSE EVERYBODY HEARD OF HER! They say she doesn't just cook amazing dishes, but she made the gourmet world her personal shopping mall! And she brings these ingredients from the gourmet world just to cook them for everyone!

Toriko: some say that she and Andrew form the ultimate combo, both which hunt the ingredients and cook them together.

Zack: wow, now that sound amazing

Then toriko and Komatsu slowly look at Zack, seeing the image of his mom and dad together with him meaning that he is the son of akaru and andrew.

Toriko: you know, you may going to be a bigger legend then those two

Zack: Well I guess that is the beginning.

Komatsu: anyway those guys are nuts.

Toriko: better get used to these running's.

Komatsu: why?

Toriko: this train's packed with gourmet hunters after the same thing we are. (drinks his booze) this will get a little messy, they may not look like it but hunters are sizing each other up, that zombie guy's hoping to scare off some competition.

Komatsu: So zack why you gave him booze?

Zack: (pull his hoodie up and drink his root beer) Be kind to any travelers, even if we're in different teams, but us hunters have the same dreams we're chasing.

?: Excuse me young man?

They all turn to see a frail hunched old man with a pompadour hairstyle ragged and patched up clothing and cheap sandals that makes him resemble a bum.

?: spare some for an old gourmet hunter? It's my medicine, please?

Zack: sure.

Komatsu: yeah your pick!

?: thank you kindly young stranger.

He took one bottle of alcohol from the table.

?: I'll pay you back (hiccup) someday. (hiccup)

as he walked away Zack could've sworn he looked vaguely familiar but shrugged it off, the train made it's destination and the five gourmet hunters walked out to the town.

Komatsu: I can't believe this town is home to a fortune teller who can also prepare the puffer whale! But… this place seems kind of empty now.

Toriko: must be hiding from the beasts.

Komatsu and Zack: huh?

Toriko: the same fortune teller tells the times when a beast comes out to hunt, the town barricades themselves inside to wait out the attacks.

Komatsu: Now that I think about it, they say this guy also foretold when the puffer whales come back, I hope he's more accurate in whales then random monsters.

Zack: (plugged his nose) why is this place smells like poison?

Before the blue haired gourmet hunter can say they all felt a stomp and rumble. Walking out of the corner of a building is a large dinosaur-like beast with small dragon wings, under jaw fangs, red hair and yellow eyes.

Toriko: when you roast or grill there's no eating a Kuendon.

Blake: woah.

Taokaka: dino dragon!

Zack then spotted someone walking up the street, a very tall, muscular 27 year old man with a striking face. He has black hair the style of which fluctuates frequently; it is wavy with loose curls naturally and is choppy when cut short. has piercing brown eyes, wears an all black suit with green bands wrapping around it at the wrists, elbows, waist, neck and an additional one on top of his head. He has been shown to remove these bands to fight, suggesting that they restrict his poison capabilities somewhat. On his turban he wears a purple pin in the shape of the letter "P". His ears are pierced; his right ear sports gold stud in the lobe and what is either two purple studs or an industrial piercing in the scapha, and in his left ear is a single gauged plug from which dangles a fuchsia chain that attaches to a clasp worn on the helix of the same ear. And wears a white cloak over his body.

Zack: that poison it came from him huh? Hmmm something I can relate to, both a curse and gift.

Toriko: Looks like he came out to say hello.

Blake: Is he gonna be okay with that kuedon?

Zack: watch.

They watched the newcomer walking past the giant beast, it was going to attack but stopped letting him walk away.

Blake: It stops.

The giant beast then walked away. The newcomers stop to look at toriko, zack, Komatsu, taokaka and blake.

?: I guess my fortune telling was right, I'll be visited by a pain in the neck. (smirk)

Toriko: that's the hospitality I expect from the gentlemen of the four heavenly kings, coco.

Coco: heh yes, I'm the gentlemen and you're the glutton. I've missed you Toriko.

Zack: it's nice to meet you coco. Names Zack.

Coco: And to you too, Zack.

Zack: These two cats here are Blake and taokaka.

Coco: (bowed) it's nice to meet you two.

Blake: (bow) a pleasure.

Taokaka: meow! You too fortune guy!

Komatsu: wait Toriko, this whole time the person we're coming to meet is one of the heavenly kings?! Oh man I didn't even wear a tie.

Timeskip

They are walking through the mountains/hills of grass while following Coco to his place.

Coco: my cabin is up ahead.

Komatsu: So um, mr coco sir, you're a total legend, why are you living way out here in the boontos?

Coco: Right now I'm a fortune teller and nothing more.

Komatsu: but what about gourmet hunting?

Toriko: what zebra up to these days?

Coco: paying his debts in the gourmet prison.

Toriko: hmph, so the black sheep finally got pinned in.

Blake: You guys sure make a team and have history.

Toriko: (look at the field) it brings me back, the four of us. Training so hard in a garden we barely survive.

Coco: So long ago yes?

Zack: so this garden. What is it?

Toriko: another time bro, but when we do go, bring your strongest with ya.

Zack: okay, I'll remember that.

Then everyone started to feel the light darkened a little, everyone looked up to see a large purple/black Crow flying around.

Komatsu: A GIANT CROW?!

Coco: hey! Care to give us a lift kiss?

Toriko: oh wow, an Emperor Crow, lord of the skies. I thought they went extinct?

Zack: (turn at taokaka drooling a little) tao! No!

Taokaka: but Tao's hungry.

Zack pulls out a steam bun and crispy chicken to stuff it into her mouth.

Taokaka: yay!

The emperor crow landed on the ground.

Coco: This is my old friend's kiss, is there room enough for six?

Kiss cawing accepting yes.

Meanwhile

back at the castle Dung next with starjuin to the throne hearing reports by the old man.

Old man: I just got word that the two of the four heavenly kings are working together.

Starjun: the Puffer Whale.

Dung: hmm, I never have that before (smirked) are we ready?

Old man: ready for what?

Starjun: activating the model…

back with Zack and Toriko

The group now arrived in Coco's cabin which is located on top of a tall pillar and Kiss is standing watch. Toriko and Taokaka are eating lots of food, Blake and Zack are eating properly however as Coco is hosting them.

Coco: The decision of ending the meal with rainbow fruit is quite fitting, and just as I foretold.

He turn of zack still have his hoodie up

Coco: May I ask if you can put your hoodie down Zack?

Zack: oh sure.

He pulled his hoodie down, shock and awe on Zack's face.

Coco: Andrew?

Zack: you too?

Coco: (shake his head) my apologies, for a moment I saw our teacher sitting there.

Zack: is alright, I'm Andrew's and akaru's son, and wait teacher?

Coco: A few years ago when me and Toriko just started out with others, your father trained us physically, but no matter what we can't even lay a scratch on him.

Toriko: Yeah, he even beat Zebra a few times.

Zack: And my mom?

Coco: she helped us with our abilities.

Toriko: And absolutely scary.

Zack: how scary?

Toriko and Coco: you don't wanna know.

Zack: got it.

Toriko: So anyway, let's talk coco, how's your full course menu of life, how's it coming along?

Coco: ah yes, quite well exactly. From Lee Dragon Tear Soup to Breo Swordfish Steak my dishes strike an excellent and nutritional balance, the only ones I haven't decided yet are my hors d'oeuvre, main course, dessert, and beverage.

Zack: It's impressive, shame I haven't been here long enough to try out all this world's delectable foods to choose.

Taokaka: don't worry blue guy! Tao sure you'll have and collect and taste yummy and delicious food in no time!

Blake: And we'll taste some as well.

Zack: (smile) thanks you two.

Coco: I know you didn't come all this way to talk about that, you're here for a gourmet hunt, to capture the puffer whale, correct?

Toriko: well that'll make it easier

Coco: puffer whales are tricky, absorb even an ounce of their poison, well let just say you never go hunting again.

Zack: I'm sure my stomach can digest that poison, even though I haven't tried yet.

Coco: oh?

Zack: long story.

Komatsu: not only do you risk death, one prick of the poison sack will bring the whole thing inaudible, why the technique capture and preparation are so difficult, and why the ruin poison ones are showing up at the black market.

Blake: not my fish!

Taokaka: NOT TAOS FISH!

Toriko: don't worry you two, your fish will be safe.

Zack: and I'm sure you two will eat the puffer whale safely when the poison sack is removed.

Toriko: and puffer whales are so good that people were willing to risk everything just to get a taste of it.

Coco: capture before it spreads it's poison and prepare without pusher the sack, is something even I can only accomplish once in only 10 tries.

Toriko: 10 to 1 sounds like a pretty oddity to me, I could prepare one of them if my life depends on it.

Zack: maybe I should capture 10 or 15 of them so I can put some of them in an aquarium.

Taoaka drools a lot.

Coco: there's more then just long odds, to reach the puffer whales spawning grounds, you must first navigate through a labyrinth of caves 10 kilometers long and 800 meters deep, filled with deadly array of beasts, including one of the most vile creature of them all: a serpent came from the mouth of hell, the devil python.

Komatsu: devil python!?

Coco: a monster in the abyss, strong as the ancient battle wolf. Which believed to be the strongest e-

Toriko: yeah yeah, I get it it's dangerous but we'll make it out okay.

Zack: i agree with toriko, can't let something like that get in the way the puffer whale, ain't my first rodeo.

Toriko: So can you see the shadow of death for either of us?

Zack: And me?

Coco focused his gaze onto all five of them…. Then he made a little smile.

Coco: I haven't been on a hunt for quite some time.

Komatsu: yeah?

Coco: I'm going with you.

Taokaka: yay!

Blake and zack: alright!

Toriko: score! Coco is in!

Komatsu: I'm going to owe ya big time for this one Toriko!

Zack: (turn at Blake and Taokaka) this is gonna be good you two! You'll have that puffer whale for sure!

Taokaka drooled more while Blake was trying to control herself but left out a little drool.

Zack: Seems Coco sees it in Komatsu, I hope he'll be alright.

As somewhere at the field not so far is a cloaked person, pull his hoodie to show Andrew with a smile.

Andrew: this gourmet world felt a little bland, but it feels like I'm back home again, (smirked while raising his arm) Now Gourmet world, prepare for a legend to return.

Timeskip

The group all walked up to see a large cave with many people making preparations for their hunt.

Zack: (hoodie up)wow everybody sure is ready.

Taokaka: nyeah! Puffer whales come to tao!

Blake: Zacky, will you have a fish on your fish menu soon?

Zack: Yeah, depends wish it is interesting to me.

Blake: I know it'll be in mine!

Taokaka: no! It'll be in taos menu!

Blake: no, I want all the fish!

Tao: and Tao want all the food!

Zack petted Tao's and Blake's head as they began to purr to calm down.

Zack: easy you two, we'll get that fish in no time.

Blake and taokaka: okay.

Coco: You have quite a unique pair of girls zack.

Zack: Yeah, stuff happens and unexpected sometimes, but get used to it.

Coco: I see.

As with Tina doing news around here but her pet bird showing her that spotted toriko, zack and their group.

Tina: it's him! Toriko! And along zack and his group! (rush up to them) i know you two don't lose a puffer whale hunt!

Then she spotted coco and was shocked to see him in person.

Tina: heavenly king coco! Toriko and Coco working in the same team?! That's a scoop with sprinkles!

Coco is about to say but Zack beats him to it.

Zack: Sorry Tina but he's not interested in being on camera.

Tina: uh…

Komatsu: (turn at tina) so uh, did you come the way here all by yourself?

Tina: despite this literally being a once in a decade thing my camera and sound guys couldn't stand the heat in the kitchen, so to speak.

Komatsu: only the best of the best is here.

Toriko: Most of those bumps are poachers planning on stealing what hunter's catch.

Komatsu: There's still a chance we leave here alive right?

Zack: we will.

Blake looks at Coco wondering in his mind.

Blake: you alright?

Coco: I'm okay, thank you.

Blake: he's been looking at komatsu, but what for? Wait, could it be...

Taokaka: let's go already!

Zack: alright.

Toriko: let's get going!

Tina: the legendary puffer whale, soon be ours.

Toriko, zack and komatsu:(look at tina) what?

tina: I wanna see one natural habitat , and if that is something I wanna experience then so much my loyal viewers at home, I'll be the first TV Gourmet ages to show the world how to catch a puffer whale, so that they consider me part of the team.

Coco: not a good idea I'm afraid.

Toriko: you wanna tag along, go right ahead,in life you make your own luck, right? And we'll make puffer whale stew.

Zack: I don't see the problem, if she wanna join she joins.

Blake: As long she stays by us and in a safe spot.

As everyone walks through the cave.

Komatsu: thanks for the headlamp tina, if we get eaten by monsters we'll look at them first.

Tina: Well normally we use them for filming but since my crew chicken out, it's all yours.

Coco: That's all well and good, but still don't leave my sight.

Komatsu: yeah no prob.

Taokaka:(sniff the mushroom) ooh yummy looking mushroom!

Komatsu: oh! Snap mushroom!

Zack and toriko: for real?!

Zack, taokaka and toriko eating the snap mushrooms.

Zack: wow, such flavor!

Taokaka: Nom! Nom! Nom! Nom!

Toriko: so delicious! So...

Zack and Toriko: AWESOME!

Komatsu: hey coco! Hey blake! Come on before they ate them all!

Coco: I told them not to leave my sight.

Blake: don't worry, they're with toriko and zack.

Blake walks in and tries the snap mushroom.

Blake: wow is like candy!

Tina: (filming) and for you watching at home, these are snap mushrooms.

Taokaka: blue guys! Grab some for your Garden!

Then Zongeh and his team arrived like their exhausted scared tina.

Tina: MONSTER!

Two guys: AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!

Zongeh: DON'T CALL PEOPLE MONSTERS! THAT IS NOT POLITE!

Zack: (munching on snap mushroom) oh it's him… (continue munching them)

Taokaka: it's the zombie guy!

Blake: (sigh) him again?

Zongeh: it's Zongeh!

Tina: Are you gourmet hunters? Cuz if you're this deep that means(gasp) have you guys captured a puffer whale?

Zongeh: uuuh, yeah uh we went all the way down there and now urgh... We kinda reflect all the cool things we did.

Tina: oh wow!

Blake roll her eyes

Tina: show me the puffer whale so i can put it on tv! Now that's a scoop with rainbow sprinkles!

Everyone then heard a nose, they all turned to see large centerpieces crawling up to them.

?: what's that? We better scramble you guys! Run guys! (run off)

Zack: oh level 1 giant millipede.

Taokaka: you think they're tasty?

Zack: maybe. (munching the snap mushroom and put extra few to his pockets)

Taokaka: should we eat them?

Zack: nah, we're hunting puffer Whales now.

Zongeh and his team along Tina run away from the giant millipede.

Zongeh: I HATE THIS CAVE! IS ICKY AND FULL OF GROSS THING!

Tina: stop screaming! Show us the puffer whale!

Toriko: hey, there goes that zombie guy.

Zack: seeyah zombie dude!

Taokaka: bye zombie guy!

Zongeh: IT'S NOT ZOMBIE! IT'S ZONE!

Toriko: well that was odd.

Komatsu: what about tina?

Coco: I see no shadow of death surrounding her so she'll be fine.

They kept walking to the cave as a little tight around small crystals.

Blake wow, look at these crystals, reminds me of the dust crystals.

Zack: yeah or petrosapiens.

Komatsu: Is it just me or are these caves getting a little tighter?

Toriko: they are but this is the only way, (sniff) the air is getting salter the farther we go.

Komatsu: your snot is a thing of beauty toriko, hey coco and zack slow down my headlight doesn't shine that far.

Taokaka: (turn to komatsu) no worry, blue guy and coconut guy can see in the dark.

Blake: Zack has all good senses by hearing, taste, smell, seeing and touching.

Komatsu: So he has enhanced senses?

Blake: yes in many ways. He's a jack of all trades.

Taokaka: blue guy is full of surprises meow!

Komatsu: huh… say blake, since Zack is from another world, is he from yours?

Blake: not even close, it's the other way around, he visited mine and Tao's

Taokaka: he's special.

Toriko: hehe, where I have a great nose, he has great eyes to see everything from infernal red and ultraviolet.

Komatsu: sweet.

Coco: every eye has visual cells that serve to capture light, my eyes have hundreds of times more visual cells then these of normal men. So even in the darkest of caves I can see perfectly.

Toriko: not just that he can see electoral magnetic waves that even the sharpest man made detectors can't.

Coco: Yes that's true, all people are surrounded by such waves which are continuously changing in both form and color, and from this I can read one's future.

Komatsu: Then read my ectrowaves, what is my future? I became a famous chef right?

Zack looked at the hole behind Komatsu but Blake got him.

Blake: you were going to fall off this cliff.

Zack: nice catch blake, (sniff) and where not alone.

Komatsu: guys you hear that?! Sounds like a whole lot of something back is going…

When he looked down he saw a swarm of large roaches with scorpion tails.

Zack: insect beset version, scorpion roach capture level 7.

Then Komastu freak out.

Toriko: those scorpion roaches will melt you with your poison, then eat your face.

Coco: (loosen her scarf) I'm going down there.

Zack: me too.

Coco: no, I'll handle this.

He then jumps down to the cave.

Zack: very well. Show them what you got.

As coco falls down his skin turns to purple, making the scorpion roaches scatter away.

Komatsu: whoa….

Toriko: Yeah, it looks like the roaches senses the poison on Coco's skin.

Coco's skin turns back to normal and out his scarf and hat back on.

Coco: Did I scare you just now? Please forgive me for my powers ten to have that effect.

Zack: is okay.

Toriko: in order to capture poisonous creatures, Gourmet hunters artificially cultivate different antibodies to protect themselves.

Blake: so munch immune of every poison.

Komastu: so they make you immune to the poison right? How many creatures are you protecting against?

Toriko: I say around 70. but that's nothing to coco, he got antibodies for 500, even among all gourmet hunters he's special.

Zack: hmmm.

Blake: woah.

Coco: I can encounter almost any type of poisonous beasts and in chances are, I will have immunity. But, anti-bodies can only be made by repeatedly injecting small amounts of poisons. I've done this to myself so many times that the toxins formed a new poison which I now carry in my pores. This poison is so potent it scares off the creatures but it has its costs, I'm a poisonous man. A man living a solitary life. Well we should get going.

Zack: coco...

Komatsu: coco seems so sad I have no idea.

Taokaka: he and blue guy m-

Blake: (cover her mouth) lets not.

Toriko: There was a group of scientists that hunted him for years, like some sort of dangerous animals.

Zack: using him as a research and poison serums, live in fear and losing his freedom being a hunter.

Toriko: you can tell?

Zack: someone has in common with him, is beyond poison to toxic, lost what of his life. (walk off to coco)

Komatsu: no wonder he doesn't like cameras or being interviewed.

Toriko: and why does it seem zack understands it?

Coco: toriko, there's a hole here that can go straight down like about 100 meteors

Zack: Since coco and I see the dark we go first. Tao and Blake, hold on to me.

they zip next to him and held his arms and back

Komatsu: great and I'll be on top of you, (got on Coco's back) don't fight it.

Coco: but my skin is poisonous.

Komatsu: don't worry I'll be fine.

Coco: suit yourself, (turn zack) wait did you brought a rope for-

He sees Zack float up and slowly float down to the hole.

Coco: oh.

Zack: you say something coco?

Coco: never mind. He is floating, how?

Coco then starts to hop his way down the hole with Komatsu on his back and Zack follows them, they see some fireflies flying around the two groups.

Komatsu: woah, are those fireflies?

Coco: yes, sea fireflies, they fly down under the beach to lay their eggs.

Komatsu: … they're so beautiful.

Blake: yeah…

Zack: hmm interesting...

Coco's thought: I'm curious , he risks touching me because he worries me.

Zack's thought: do coco see komatsu that...

Toriko:( zip down while holding the rope) If you see fireflies that means we're close to the urbonaite beach !

They heard screaming

Taokaka: what's that ?

Toriko: a gourmet hunter...

Coco: sound like trouble, Let's move!

Toriko: we're all gonna drop down at once.

Coco: whatever you do, don't let go of me.

Komatsu: okay.

As the group land at the ground as coming in are bats.

Komatsu: oh great now what?

Toriko: their swallow tailed cave bats.

Zack sees Coco gonna use his poison hand but Zack grabs it, this surprise slightly to coco that zack is not affected.

Zack: hold on coco, those swallow tailed bats aren't attacking us.

Taokaka: yeah, they smell scared.

Blake: meaning something that highly and enormous

Taokaka: another capture beast? Is it that devil python thingy?

Zack: it should be-

Then suddenly came in a shadow that made a portal to suck blake and tao, then a speed figure who seemed intangible pushed zack phase through.

Toriko: zack! Blake! Tao!

Coco: What happened to them?

With zack, blake and taokaka

They thud to another cave location, separated from toriko, coco and komatsu.

Zack: What happened?

?: that'll be us.

They turn ghostfreak but his omnitrix and eyes are mint color, pop out the shadow portal is an all dark figure ninja with white eyes and gear and hoodie with a hook sword like to his chest.

Zack: oh great, evil ben and Noob Saibot.

Evil ghostfreak: nice to see you again orion

Zack: tch your voice is worse than zyskar.

Blake: we need to take care of these guys and rejoin the others.

Taoaka: tao didn't see the scaredy chef guy around with us before we got separated.

Zack: wait what?!

Blake: oh no!

Noob saibot: seem that death awaits him.

Zack: oy, that's not your decision to say it is.

Evil ghostfreak: is more of a fact that he'll be either eaten or killed, last i check in here, there ain't just one devil python is it?

Zack: …. oh shit.

Noob saibot: that proves it, he'll die.

Zack: not on my watch! Blake and tao, take out the dead ninja, this wannabe ben is mine.

Taokaka: right blue guy!

Evil ghostfreak: as if you can-

Zack in his ghost formed a punch the alien ghost sent him crashed to the wall.

Zack: You gonna babble? Or fight me?

Evil ghostfreak: fine then!

Zack: time to roll out! (hit his ultramatrix)

Evil ghost quickly hit his omnitrix to turn into four arms as Zack transformed into P. Shocksquatch.

P. Shocksquatch: let's finish this up, eh?

Taokaka: YOU LEAVE BLUE GUY OUT BLACK BLOB!

Noob saibot: face it, he's like me, I accepted what I have from quan chi.(then make a shadow figure clone) he forever curses and now a monster to life and death.

Blake: you have no saying on what he is! You're just created by black magic, Zack is born a great person!

Noobb saibot: correction, i was a person even quan chi did plan manipulate scorpion, but it least worth be reborn and zack…(chuckle) a great person who's born a failure.

The shadow figure clone went to attack and fight taokaka and noob saibot charge in clashes his hook lade to the cat faunus huntress.

Noob saibot: a nobody, who couldn't protect his little sister nor his father, he may look normal outside but deep within a forever a walking artificial corpse with some soul, that everybody hates and sees him...a beyond freak.

Taokaka: TAO ATTACK!

Noob saibot turned as he quickly blocked his arm but tao's speed rapidly punched sent him crashing to the ground, he grunt but got up.

Taokaka: bla bla bla, Tao think black blob talk too much and look dumb, tao wanna beat you to a pulp!

Noob saibot: and what do a two stupid cat even a first cat who's dumber have to take me down?

Taokaka: (grin more) wanna find out?

Blake: May I?

Taokaka: yeah!

Noob saibot: what?

Blake pulled her cleaver and unsheathed her katana.

Noob saibot: a katana? is that all?

Taokaka: nope, this is!

She then dash's up to him and starts slashing, Noob saibot tries to stop it but Blake comes in to assist the kaka cat.

Taokaka: KAKA CLAWS!

She slash deadly at noob saibot to send noob saibot stumble as taokaka uppercut the undead ninja to mid air as she uses her final attack.

Taokaka: ALMOST BECOMING TWO, MEOW!

with her speed, she creates an afterimage with mass that attacks with her, doubling her strikes, sending noob saibot crash to the wall as the rumble noise the rocks crash him then goes unconscious.

Taokaka: (start dancing) nyeha!

Blake: way to go tao!

Taokaka: thank blank kitty!

They turn to see evil fourarms who's now U. Swampfire and P. Shocksquatch is now P. Diamondhead as they both glaring at each other.

Evil U. swampfire: had enough? I can go any aliens even ultimate!

Taokaka: TAO TACKLE!

She tackles the alien tree plant till he bursts blue flame as taokaka notices her tail is on fire.

Taokaka: AH! TAO'S TAIL IS ON FIRE!

Evil U. Swampfire: now you get it? Can't beat me!

P. Diamondhead: really? Too bad you're not like my Ben cuz, he's more improved and so are my own aliens!

He hit his ultramatrix as a blue flash he turned into a vilgax like but wearing shoulder pads, black spandex with blue streak down, black fingerless gloves, tentacles beard and long two tentacles on his back and black boot. Symbol of the ultimatrix as a belt.

?: KRAKEN FIGHTER!

Evil U. Swampfire: WHAT?!

Kraken fighter: since you wanna play reverse, an evil ben meets a good vilgax.

Evil U swampfire, he chargein and unleashed blue fire punches but it aint effecting him as he punch Evil U. Swampfire and slammed him to the ground, then knee the gut, as Evil U swampfire hit his omnitrix to flash into evil U. Big chill to breath ice-fire but a blue flash as he now P. Shock rock to unleashed a big energy blast to hit him, then a mint flash as evil rath and blue flash as wildcat they both fighting with their claws as wildcat won as a Blue flash again as this time howler.

Howler: now for this mode.

He engulfed himself in black mist, when he walked out of the mist howlers flesh and fur decade and rotten, some of the bone exposed of his tail and claws.

?: UNDEAD HOWLER! (Howling)

Evil Rath: like that carcass can beat me!

He tiger roar charging in rapidly speed throwing punches but undead howler just dodge in speed then bit hard to Evil Rath's neck, then rapidly dark energy claw slash him many times, then split his mouth 4 angle to dark sonic howl to him hard to slammed hard to the wall and turn back to evil ben.

Evil ben: y-you may defeat me, b-but the D-enforcer coming a-and that boy is de-

Undead howler zoom and punch the gut, then remove his omnitrix, blake and taokaka look at him.

Undead howler: is noob saibot right,(look at his claws) of what I am?

Taokaka: Tao doesn't care! Blue guy is blue guy!

Blake: You help us and show your not like that.

Blake and Tao then hugged him.

Undead howler: you hug me in this form? An undead form?

Blake: really? Me and my team face worse.

Taokaka: blue guy is still a blue guy no matter dead thing or anything.

Undead howler: thanks you two, also Tao here your reward. (tap his ultramatrix)

With a blue flash, Zack changed to wildcat which made the kaka excited.

Wildcat: WILDCAT!

Taokaka: YAY! KITTY GUY!

Wildcat: thought this form helps kitty lady good!

Taokaka: cuddle! (hug him)

After 10 minutes of cuddling blue flash turns back to normal.

Zack: okay we should go.

Taokaka: tao hungry from fighting (dig into zack's pocket) blue guy might have tasty food!

She pulls out a bag of caramel candy.

Zack: Those are smart candy that kokonoe and I made it put on any time mode as it'll wear off.

Taokaka: tao wanna be super smart like a tail lady and blue guy!

Zack: Then I suppose 1 hour then.

Taokaka then eats it and munch the first one.

Blake: wow tao, you feel anything?

Zack: any different?

Taokaka: blue guy...blank kitty...

Zack: yes?

Taokaka?: no Zack and Blake, I wish to apologize for my ignorant and childish behavior over the times we've known together.

Blake: (eyes wide and shock) woah! it works!

Zack: God you sound like a dictionary mixed poem.

Taokaka?: your praise is always been my light that no other shall deter, even though for your horrible upbringing I, Taokaka, am truly feel for your kindness, strength to perverse and the love that you showed girls and woman such as myself in this vast multi and omniverse.

Zack: is nothing tao, even your original personality is no trouble even to others sometimes but to me I like you the way you are and what shall I call you? Since you're a different tao and tao somewhere in her head.

Taokaka?: I understand, You can call me however you want as I shall pick for my state right now , Taokaka Neo.

Zack: Okay, (transformed his ghost form) we better go find komatsu, I know toriko and coco can deal one way with the devil python.

Taokaka Neo: we must hurry for our party to face the dangers ahead!

Zack: grab on to me! I'll go intangible and can track komatsu smell or his death will happen by coco's fortune!

Blake: in the meantime we'll try to find Toriko and Coco.

Zack flew phasing the walls, taokaka neo sniffing as she ran while Blake followed her.

Meanwhile

Toriko and Coco are now facing a long purple serpentine creature with an impressive body length, ranging usually between 35 to 40 meters long. It has a dark purple hide and a large white mane made up of hair-like tendrils that it can move about like tentacles. It has four legs each with six digits & red claws that can stretch to great lengths and regenerate if they should be severed. It can also grow more arms if needed. It has a fearsome looking maw filled with sharp, blood-colored teeth and three bloodshot stalked eyes that give it excellent vision and a ferocious appearance.

coco: it's gigantic!

Toriko: it's the ruler of the cave, the devil python!

The devil python begins to roar making the cave shake.

Toriko: guh, it's scratching is brutal!

Coco: and that's just the cave's natural frequency, it could collapse!

It grabs Toriko to pin him to the wall with such strength.

Toriko: strong little bugger aren't you? I can't move!

Coco: hold on!

The devil python puffs his mouth and spit acid but coco dodge, then suddenly an ice slash makes the devil python scream feel a little woozy of the cold ice. They turn to see Blake who uses an ice dust for her katana and taokaka neo arrived.

Blake: toriko!

Toakaka neo: coco!

Toriko: hey you two!

Coco: is zack searching komatsu?

Blake: yeah, we're here to help out.

The devil python turns at toriko and prepares another acid.

Coco: oh no! It's going to boil its own with him in it! Toriko!

Toriko yelled to buff his arms to break free the girl and safely dodge the acid.

Toriko: you think you can cook me?!

Then a magenta aura around him as he uses his hand as a knife image.

Toriko: KNIFE!

He karate chops the devil python's left arm , however it regenerates.

Blake: It regenerates it's limb?!

Coco: in incredible speed noless.

It swatted toriko to the wall on the rumble, then burst out of it and roared.

Toriko: man you gonna taste so good! Slow roast in a campfire! TIME TO ROAST YOUR DINNER BELL!

taokaka neo: coco, blake, toriko! I have a plan!

Blake: what is it?

Taokaka neo: despite you, coco and I can see well but not toriko. the speed, strength, the acid and self limb regenerate can be a problem however, coco the only one can use himself to distract the monster, letting it use ever poison and acid, since I have a feeling the acid isn't the only one it possessed, the fighting spirit it isn't enough to make it back away since consider the level and how deadly it is I smell. thus can perhaps make extra limbs consider like a hydra similarly to growing extra heads whenever cut. this creature will not likely, I notice it have a hidden hair have and pinorgan do of being a snake, a second eye but just located the nose.

Blake: So if it takes out which means...

Taokaka neo: meaning blind. coco will handle the rest of the poison and acid while hitting the pin organs, by the hair needles is the only way coco's abilities can build up to make antibodies. Blake used an ice dust to help slow down enough of the devil python, toriko and I charged up an attack to finish it off for good.

Toriko: seance when you become a genius Tao?

Coco: And you call me by my name normally.

Toriko: and not acting like, you but no third person.

Taokaka neo: long story, let say I taokaka neo, given by zack's special gift, now coco you must let it grab you in order to make it happen.

Coco: right.

Blake: Now let's say, filet this beast!

Coco took off his hat and scarf to make his skin now purple.

Coco: my venom versus the devil python, let's find out which one of us is potent.

Toriko: Once you slow this bad boy down, I'll use my secret move.

Coco: secret move?

Toriko then buffing charged his right arm, to build it up.

Blake: alright, (got to a three leg stance) lets see what abilities the cells have given me?

Taokaka neo: and I shall do the same.

They start to consider and feel a pulse, their body like massive speed kicks in.

Taokaka Neo: lets go!

Blake and taokaka neo zig zag vanished , hitting each impact on the devil python .

Toriko: (whistle) Zack's girls are not bad.

Coco: So we better follow Tao's plan.

Toriko: It's been a while since you used your full poison power, such a big target, are you sure you're not rusty?

Coco: heh, if you got mantle energy worry about me, i suggest you focus harder on your power routine.

The two cats dodge away as Coco jumps up, letting the devil python grab him and gather poison to his fist.

Coco: POISON RIFLE!

Hit directly at the pin organs. But see more pin organs.

Coco: tao is right about more pin organs hidden, POISON SKIN!

Harden his body with poison as the devil python uses acid on coco. However he is still okay as the acid is not hurting him.

Blake: SHADOW: TEN STRIKE!

She then made herself 9 more clones of herself and dashed up to the python, Hitting other part of the python

Coco: poison skin, my body draws from its mass storm of toxin, covers every inch of me as a thin layer, this counter acts as a dissolving fluid then attacks him at the same time. This is tricky , I'll run out of poison before penetrating the devil python's skin. POISON CANNON!

It dodge and use the hair to pin Coco's skin and ingest it's poison.

Taokaka neo: NOW!

Blake uses an ice dust on hee katana to make a copy of herself slashes making the devil python feel slow as Coco grabs the devil python's hand while in fighting spirit to show an image of a gray skinny scary figure with long white hair.

Toriko: what the?

Coco absorbs the devil python's poison while veins showing.

Coco: extreme pain, hallucinations, hemorrhages…. I've broken down all the different protein components that give the poison it's potency, now I can use my immunity powers to produce antibodies for it. If I don't have antibodies, I make them...poison, is my curse and blessing.

As the antibodies are affecting so much to the devil python.

Coco: What do you think of my antibodies? Tasty? Taokaka and Toriko, you both move.

Toriko's entire right arm is now jacked to the max and it was steaming and Taokaka Neo's claws are now scythe sharp.

Taokaka Neo: right.

Toriko: thanks bro, I'm charged up.

Toriko and taokaka neo charged up as toriko ready his right arm and Taokaka neo scythe glowing bright light combined their attack at the devil python. Toriko then starts punching/loading his punches and taokaka neo loosen her body to make it look like paper.

Toriko: 5 FOLD… SPIKED PUNCH!

Taokaka neo: NINE! LIFE ART! THE CLAW ASSAULT!

With the blue haired hunter slammed his fist onto the python's body and the Kaka dashed past it while making nine slashes.

Toriko and taokaka neo: 1… 2… 3… 4….

Toriko: and 5.

With then the many impacts and slices the devil python to pieces as coco falls down as toriko caught him.

Blake: We did it, you guys! Tao neo your plan work!

Taokaka Neo: yes, this should be enough and let hope zack got komatsu

meanwhile with Komatsu

Komatsu is panicking as he was snatched by another gourmet hunter.

Gourmet hunter: keep your mouth shut squirt, it'll be all over soon enough! (kept running)

as he was running to find the lake, the hunter stopped and was shocked to see another devil python… but this one has a darker shade of purple and white-purple hair and red teeth and claws.

Gourmet hunter: i-it's a Demon Devil Python! (thrown Komatsu) TAKE THIS YOU MONSTER! yeah fill up on that one!

He started to run away, but karma got the better of him and was eaten alive by a swarm of scorpion roaches.

Komastu scared of his life now, he frighten taking out of his backpack, which is firecracker that fill with gunpowder and bring the earplugs

Komastu: can't forget earplugs!

But the roar of the Demon Devil Python roared at the small chief scaring him more and dropping the earplugs, Without thinking, he quickly got the firecracker try to pull the trigger

Komatsu: why don't you explode?! (as he pull the trigger)

When the python got close to Komatsu, he pulled it as a big flash boom hit the impact on the black devil python, however it backfired on Komatsu without wearing his earplug, his eardrums popped and his heart stop beating as went to the ground.

The advanced python was unaffected from the blast and was going to eat komatsu... until...

?: *Hch*

Then it turns to see the old man and none other than Andrew as they both have a bot pot they got.

Andrew: heh, it's good to hunt with you old man.

Old man: you too, Andrew, have been like the good ol days.

Andrew: yep, these puffer whale sake will be good as a surprise meal when my wife is gonna come home.

Old man: heh heh, huh?

Andrew: oh?

They turn at the black devil python.

Andew: A Demon Devil Python? (smiled) you're a tough one, and the tastiest I wonder.

Old man: not even a little startled by that bang? aren't you a brave one. *hch*

Then he pulled out a knocking taser and dug them onto his shoulders to shock them, then his entire upper body started to grow making him a giant and Andrew cracked his neck while having an evil hungry smile.

The black devil python stopped as it sweated bullets like crazy, in fear as its hair turned pale white to see Andrew's fighting spirit but mostly his aura. As a silhouette of his Appetite Demon it's eyes glowed glared at the python, hungrily wanting to have a bite on this beat.

Andrew appeared already in front of the snake beast to karate chop the neck hard as a loud crack sound to paralyze the lowest part and the old man used his tool to zap the other part of it. Knock down and foam it mouth in pain and fear death.

Andrew: (dusted his hands) there, that should do it.

Old man: getting a little rusty are ya andy?

Andrew: rusty? You're the one who talks and I train.

They turn to komatsu.

Old man: well you look at that? Is that nice boy from the train?

As Andrew checks the pulse.

Andrew: Wow, judging the boom is a firecracker sure got him and his eardrum.

Old man: you work on the heart and I'll do the eardrums.

Andrew nodded, then he pointed his hand to the chest to hit it and make small waves, and Komatsu's heart is back beating and back to life.

Andrew: there we go, welcome back to the living world.

Old man: The other boy looks like you from the train? He's your son right?

Andrew: yep.

Old man: well then, (open his vest to show his tools) I owe this kid, and the kind orange stranger and your son for the booze. (pull his tool)and now let go patch up your busted drums shall we? (use it to repair the small chef's eardrums) ah good as new.

Andrew:(patted komastu's cheek) hey! Wake up!

Komastu opened his eyes to see Andrew and the old man.

Old man: few second chances are given to life so make the most of it.

Andrew: (smile) good thing we are passing through, you look all ready to go.

Komatsu is now speechless seeing Andrew right in front of him.

Andrew: uh… you still alive? (wave at komatsu)

Komatsu: HOLY CRAB CAKES! ANDREW THE GOURMET TITAN IS RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF ME!

Andrew: yo dude!

Komastu snapped out of it.

Andrew: you alright? You kept staring at me very munch.

Komatsu panicked and started bowing to him rapidly.

Komatsu: I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!

Andrew patted his head to calm down.

Andrew: Is it alright, no harm and your Toriko's friend? Komastu right?

Komatsu: YOU HEARD OF ME!?

Andrew: yep, and I know that blue haired bone head.

Komastu turned at the old man, freaked him out, then hugged Andrew tightly in fear.

Andrew: easy little man.

Komastu turned at the old man, freaked him out then hugged Andrew tightly in fear.

Komatsu: AAAH! HELP ME! GIANT OLD MAN MONSTER!

Old man: monster? Andrew and I save your life boy!

Andrew: hey he never seen you this big before old man!

Old man: if you were me you would know.

Komastu remembers what happened.

Komatsu: s-so dose Zack know yo-

Andrew: nope, (lets go and grabs his canister) I just want my boy to be happy, but I guess my death has an impact on his life.

This shocked the komatsu.

Komatsu: b-by who?

Andrew: dung and his goons.

Komatsu: THE TYRANT GOURMET CHIEF.

Andrew: yeah long story.

He turns to the hat with the camera as he picks it up.

Andrew: If anyone watching your friend is okay and tells my son and my students Toriko and Coco I say hi.

Outside from the cave, zongeh and his team along with tina watching the hidden camera from komastu's hat, there eyes bulge and jaw dropped to see Andrew in the flesh.

Tina: i-i-i-s t-t-t-that r-r-r-really…

Zongeh and his team: ANDREW THE GOURMET TITAN!?

Zongeh: WAIT HE HAVE A SON?!

Tina: I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE ANDREW ON CAMERA!

With Andrew

Andrew and the old man walk away.

Andrew: Well komatsu is good to meet ya, tell toriko, coco and zack. I say hi, good luck to the puffer whale as well! BTW, the old man and I senses something coming big so be careful this time!

Old man: and try not to die again.

Komastu is still in awe then suddenly he turns to see phase up to see zack in his ghost form.

Zack: komatsu! Are you okay?!

Komatsu: GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH A GHOOOST!

Zack: komatsu relax! It's me zack!

Komatsu: z-z-zack?

Zack: yep, sorry to spook ya.

Komatsu: w-why are you a-

Then they turn to see toriko, coco, blake and taokaka neo here who found the two.

Toriko: yo bro, you alright?!

Zack: yeah we are.

Toriko and Coco see Zack's ghost form.

Coco: zack? is that you?

Zack:(turn back to normal) yeah.

Toriko: what did you eat to get that ability? From bone soup?

Zack: no, I didn't, is a long story.

Coco: we got some time.

Zack: Well you two remember dung right?

Toriko: who doesn't.

Coco: a vile tyrant chef of beyond unforgiving.

Zack: Well he uh, he and his goons... ever since my mom left I have never seen her again. dung and his goons came to my house, I was protecting my sister and then, they killed my dad.

Coco: He killed Andrew?

Toriko: That's impossible, he probably did it while he was back is turned.

Zack: I saw it with my own eyes, I sacrificed to save my sister when they kidnapped me. dung and his allies took me into a timeless dimension, a realm and place they tormented me inhuman, experimented me also with so many things kill me over and over, revive me there and more it was felt to me so much a year, inject me with multiple serums, and beyond deadly things, I manage to escape but I die and ended up a half mutant. both alive, dead and undead.

Toriko: …. damn…

Coco: You're like me.

Zack: hmm?

Coco: been hunted, being experimented on.

Zack: yeah.

Coco: What about your sister?

Zack: Let's say we didn't have well adopted parents, sacrifice when a bullet got to her when I tried to protect her from thugs.

Toriko then patted zack's shoulder

Toriko: hey man, don't think about that past too much and focus on your future bro.

zack: yeah that I thank a good friend who is an actual brother to me

taokaka neo: that why we're here for you zack

blake: no matter what your ain't alone

they turn to the devil python that dead, toriko and coco is absolute shock along jaw dropped dumbfounded, cuz these two recognize that karate chop hit along the devil python foaming like if fear.

Zack: geez what the hell happened to it? looks like somebody hit it to the bone but actually seem scared to death, not to mention knocked out before it died.

Toriko: holy fork, I know that chop anywhere.

Coco: So have I, Andrew is really back. And I see he hasn't lost his touch.

Komatsu: yeah! Him and that giant old man save my life!

Zack: giant old man?

Then zack eyes wide and grab komatsu's by the shoulder.

Zack: YOU SAID MY DAD SAVE YOU?! AND THAT MEANS ALIVE?!

Komatsu: I KNOW RIGHT?! I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD SINCE HE DISAPPEARED YEARS AGO!

Zack: oh my god! t-that means, MY MOM IS HERE TOO!

Komatsu: it's a possibility!

Zack: But who is this giant man you said komatsu? Did he knock it out?

Coco: sound like that must have been the knocking master.

Komatsu: who's that?

Coco: a great gourmet hunter, a knocking master Jiro, his full course menu is other worldly, filled with Delicious most people will never taste in their lifetime, their capture level can be measured. and sometimes partner with Andrew, Hors d'Oeuvre: hundred leaf clover, drink: doham spring sake, fish: royal land shark, main course: ET. Rice, desert: oasis melon, meat: ashurasaurus, salad: grana lettuce, soup: magma consumed.

Zack: woah.

Toriko: you know I thought I might pick up a familiar whip here.

Zack: the old guy from the train.

Blake: who couldn't stop hiccup.

Coco: But I thought I heard, he retired years ago.

Toriko: yeah but he is known to love the drink, there was once a cocktail waiting in the cave.

Zack: puffer whale sake here we come!

Taokaka neo: …..

Zack: oh 1 hour been up.

Taokaka: (puff out steam from her head) wow! Thank's blue guy for that candy meow!

Toriko: hey look tao is back! So how does it feel being all genius and talk stuff like that?

Taokaka: huh? What does blue guy 2 mean? Tao is confused.

Coco: you don't remember?

Taokaka: nope!

Zack: I got this, memory trigger. (tap taokaka's head)

Taokaka began to remember her as Taokaka neo.

Taokaka: oh wow! Tao was super smart!

Zack: yeah but even you're smart you're still the lovable tao I know.

Taokaka: thanks blue guy!

Zack quickly like a mini tornado gathers the dead black devil python to put it in his pocket.

Zack: let's go.

Toriko: I wish I had pockets like those.

Timeskip

After a few minutes of running they found it, a cave lit up brightly thanks to the lake and crystals glittering beautifully in all its glory.

Zack and blake: woah.

Taokaka: sparkly!

Blake and taokaka sniff the lake.

Blake: fiiish…..

Taokaka: yummy yummy.

Zack and toriko eyes wide felt something massive, more than a devil python.

zack: hey bro did you smell and felt that?

Before Toriko could say, something came out of the beautiful waters and it revealed a large, snake-like creature with a head similar to that of a piranha. Color darker green color with orange splotches instead of yellow. have a fin on the ends of his tails, so many sharp teeth combination of a piranha along the snake's fangs, as It hiss roaring loud.

Toriko: whoa…. that's Phrianaconda Crostini. Level 33.

Komatsu: IT'S MASSIVE !

Coco: It was much more dangerous than a devil python.

Zack stared at the phrianaconda that was growling.

Zack: guys...(grin wider)I have found my first Hors d' Oeuvre.

Toriko: (smirked) then hunt away Bro.

Zack: yo! Fishface serpent! deal with me first!

The phrianaconda looked at Zack, it slither out of the water while toriko, coco, komatsu, blake and taokaka stepped back.

Komatsu: s-should we help zack?

Toriko: no way, this is his hunt.

Zack does a little stretches.

Zack: To think a hybrid like you exists here, well hell this is gonna be my own kitchen to do so!

As with Tina, Zongeh and his team see the camera of Zack ready to fight the Phrianaconda Crostini all by himself.

Tina: is he really going to fight that giant thing all by himself?! what a triple scoop with toppings!

with zack

zack got his stance ready as he yelled build up a blue and white aura, his muscle a bit buff as his hair a slight spiky, the piranhaconda roar zoom in massive speed as same with zack, zack block each blow from the hybrid fish snake's tail strike and headbutt. zack using his kicks rapidly yo block each huge bite that the phiraconda try to kill him as zack headbutt it make it back away and zack land of it, zack bent down his knee to jump up to deliver a spin kick while the piranaconda using it harden skin try to endure the strength from the blue hero while everyone watching awe seeing zack catching up going toe to toe at the level 33 capture beast.

Komatsu: whoa look at him go!

Coco: incredible.

Toriko: way to go bro!

Then as the pirhanaconda open it mouth to let a very deadly acid-poison ready around the sharp teeth as it glowing ready for the kill.

Zack: let's go!

Coco: incredible.

Toriko: way to go bro!

Then as the pirhanaconda open it mouth to let a very deadly acid-poison ready around the sharp teeth as it glowing ready for the kill.

Toriko: now has a glowing mouth.

Coco: a combination of acid and poison, very deadly intense to melt the bone and flesh out.

As the piranhaconda quickly wrapped around zack.

Komatsu: zack!

Zack: seem like you got me but ain't giving it up, in this case... I'm going to combine my both sides as one!

He then starts to growl and emanate black and white aura when the piranhaconda bite him but the acid position being vaporized as His blue and white aura begin changing color of both sides begin to merge as one.

Zack: RIGHT SIDE! LEFT SIDE! (raised his right arm and showed an image of a kitchen knife and tenderize tool) TOOLS OF A TITAN!

a burst of a bluish gray flaming aura unleashed force the snake fish to let go, they see zack roar loudly as his fighting spirit of an appetite beast of a vicious and hungry grim reaper with glowing piercing eyes that is so massive making the piraconda felt stroke of fear as everybody see it felt so awe.

Toriko: whoa ho!

Coco: So that's his gourmet cells.

Komatsu: WOOOOOOOAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!

Blake: Go get him zack!

Taokaka: GO BLUE GUY!

He begins to walk up to it, the piranhaconda then quickly dive to bite him, but what he bite is an afterimage. Burst of nonstop impact begin slowly breaking the hardening skin, zack is on top of him . he dive inside the mouth, he begin beating and booming noise inside of it, then he got up as twirl his arms up as passed the piranhaconda as line glow Invisible all over it as cutting slash make the piranhaconda in pain as if caught in a wire line, he land then begin raised his fist.

Zack: now you see it, this isn't just a fight! This is my kitchen state! And you're the food to be cooked! AAAAHHH! GIVE ME THE STRENGTH AS A HERO OF GOURMET HUNTER! RAISES THE TEMPERATURE OF MY OVEN!

Toriko and Coco see an image of Andrew on zack.

Zack: (back his fist) FIST! OF! (Thrust his fist) THE TITAN PROMETHEUS!

He unleashed a massive Eternal flame engulfing the piranhaconda as it roared in pain as soon the flame around the cut up wire lines made a bright flash. As everybody covers their eyes when they light down, they see all chopped up pieces of meat with very extra well and some piranhaconda meal make everybody so impressed and awestruck.

Zack: (power down and smile) well, that just prime.

Toriko: Whoa ho ho, so Zack, how's your first hunt?

Zack: awesome.

As with Tina and Zongeh and his team cheered that zack did it.

Zongeh: look at that!

Tina: Now that's a story!

with zack

Zack: Now that is out of the way, time for the puffer whale.

Toriko: alright! (takes off his shirt and vest) lets go hunt some Puffer Whale!

Zack: hey Komatsu, mind if I take that helmet of yours? (start taking off his trench coat)

Komatsu: oh sure.

He takes the helmet, waves at the camera and puts it on.

Zack: (taking off his shirt, tank top and shoes) before we go I do senses two mechanic bots being pilot control, is a very massive intense aura but it ain't troubling on us, for now cuz we'll deal with it later, since getting puffer whale and we are severally, not coming towards us.

Toriko: then let's get it on!

Blake:(blush) I'll stay in my outfit.

Taokaka strip now wears yellow wraps on her top and another wrap on her bottom that resembles cycling shorts and is the first time to see her without the hoodie but maintains her facial features and wears paw-like gloves.

Taokaka: Tao is going too!

Zack: let's dive! (dive in the water)

As the two gourmet hunters, the kaka and the blue hero all dive in leaving Blake and Komatsu on the beach.

Toriko: I heard puffer whales only lay their eggs in clear waters, I never knew water was this clear.

Zack: it's beautiful….

Then they see a large deep-sea fish that was once normally around six meters in length pudgy-looking white fish with a round body, thin fins, small beady eyes, and large blue lips.

Zack: w-whoa…..

No one can't tell, but in the lake taokaka is drooling like crazy.

Taokaka: big… yummy…. Fishy…..

Zack patted taokaka's shoulder to not scare the fish which made her ears flop. Then the large puffer whale starts to become blurry revealing it's a large cluster of the smaller ones.

Zack: so it's a gather pack to make itself big, very clever now to capture a truck load of them.

Zack calms his aura down to let it be clear and one with the water.

Coco: That's odd, I can't since Zack's presents anymore.

Taokaka looked around for zack.

Taokaka: where did the blue guy go?

Zack is gently going to some of the puffer whales, using his finger to knock the puffer whale unconscious by the nervous system.

Coco: there he is, well better not be left behind.

Toriko: And you grab a buffet! (charge in)

Coco: toriko wait!

As he was going to capture then… but all four of them turned to poison.

Zack: (knock another one out while looking) they turn poison.

Toriko: I scared them when they turned poisonous.

Coco: Toriko stay back… EXTINGUISH LIFE.

He turns invisible as the same with zack.

Taokaka: Blue guy? Coconut guy? Where are you two going?

Toriko: he masked their sign of presence, for a second I actually thought they vanished, now they're totally invisible and not threatening the puffer wales.

Coco is gently floating up to the school of Puffer Whales then pulling out a different knocking device from his pouch.

Coco: softly, slowly.

Toriko: That's a derelict type knocking...

Coco slowly swam to the puffer whale.

Coco: just melt into the ocean, knocking.

He pressed the trigger so a long needle to knight out the puffer whale to unconsciousness.

Toriko: So you have reduced consciousness to stay focused, way to go coco and you too zack, you're doing great, so...something like this?

as he made himself invisible it made Taokaka look all over.

Taokaka: here other blue guy no?

Zack:(appeared with nets of puffer wale) he cloaked his own aura tao.

Taokaka: really?

Zack: Yeah, want me to teach you so you can catch a puffer whale?

Taokaka: yeah!

Zack: you have to calm down and think like a relaxing, cloak your own aura so they wont sense it, use your claws but thin enough to touch the nervous system by through the gills

Taokaka: got it meow!

She then starts to disappear like nothing, she swims gently to the puffer whale and uses her thin hook claws to hit the gills to the nervous system, knocking them out.

Taokaka: TAO DID IT!

Zack: way to go tao.

Timeskip

After a lot of fishing the hunters and Taokaka grabbed a huge hall thanks to Zack but the two heavenly kings managed to grab 10.

Zack: that should be enough.

Komatsu: ENOUGH?! YOU GRABBED MORE THAN TORIKO AND COCO!

Zack: I don't see the problem and beside Tao and Blake is dying to get these fish, first I have to remove the poison.

Coco: Zack, I know you just started hunting, but you need to make sure they cut perfectly, do you know someone that can do it?

Zack: Blake and I suggest you let Komastu do it too.

Coco: agreed.

Komatsu: r-really?

Zack: indeed you have to be careful.

Komatsu: o-okay and you sure blake can do it too? Is very difficult.

Blake: yes, zack?

Zack pulls out a sharp and clean kitchen.

Zack: I'll prepare the piranhaconda meal.

Toriko: oh I can't wait to try it!

Zack: same with the devil python, yo tao! I need your help on it.

Taokaka: alright Blue guy!

Zack: good luck komatsu, you too Blake.

Blake: I won't let you down.

Zack and taokaka begin working on the piranhaconda, as Blake begins ready to remove the poison by using the kitchen knife and the same goes for komatsu as he puts on his chief's uniform.

Blake: alright, Komatsu, just breathe and stay calm.

Komatsu: right.

Coco: beneath the puffer whale's hair bladder you'll find it's poison sack, first make a 10 centimeter insurgent starting at the base of the tail fin, as in filleting a fish.

Blake: I see.

Blake and komatsu cut the fish 10 centimeters and stopped without causing the poison which impressed coco.

Coco's thought: they stop exactly 10 meters.

Komatsu: this flesh is Shockley heavy , I wonder if the puffer whale's flavor is equally heavy.

Coco: alright, now make a slice from the gills to the lower jaw.

Komatsu: okay.

They slice the gill to the jaw

Coco: incredible.

Komatsu: this is too stressful, if I'm off a meteor this thing gonna explode, i feel like I'm at the action movie defusing the bomb.

Blake's slowly opening the stomach while Komastu's cut makes the fish turn poison.

Komatsu: GAH!

Coco: so close, he barely nicked it.

Blake: There, what next?

Coco: you'll see the poison membrane, slowly remove it carefully and don't be scared.

Blake: right, and I'm not scared.

Blake sees the poison sack, slowly and gently removes it safely as the poison begins to dissolve, meaning Blake did it.

Blake: (smile) yes.

Then the entire fish starts glowing and turns to gold.

Coco: good job Blake, it'll take a lot of times and while of the other-

Blake used the semblance did the same things to the entire puffer whales, cut it openly, got the poison sack out, the puffer whales turned gold too.

Coco: … ones….

Toriko: ahaha! I guess when it comes to cats, they're dead serious about how they handle their fish.

Komatsu: whoa… they're incredible. (turn to the other 9) right!

As Komastu began the whale pale fish, he tried as some got the poison by mistake he accidentally did, he's now on his last one.

Komatsu: alright… this guy is our last puffer whale….

Coco: take your time, you've got this.

Komastu begins to slowly cut it open to reveal the poison sack.

Coco: there it is, the poison sack.

Komatsu: really that's it?

Coco: now like Blake, time to use your hands, start to peel the thin membranes from around the sack, careful not to break it.

Komatsu: K.

Coco: nice and slow, once you clear the membranes, carefully scoop it up, don't be scared.

Once he got the membranes out he gently placed the sack on his hand and slowly lifted the sack out, then when the purple smoke dissipated from the puffer whale, it started to glow like the others.

Zack: yo guys! Is done!

Everyone turns to see the pieces of the piranhaconda with some greens and on some pieces of bread. They smell the absolute smell of a glorious cooked up Crostini piranhaconda with the bread making it extra tender and delicious.

Zack: (take his helmet off) hope you're having great footage Tina.

He showed her on the camera of the piranhaconda Crostini he made.

Zack: because you're getting front row seats.

As Tina and along zongeh and his crew are drooling of what they're seeing.

Tina: This is going to be delicious footage!

Zack: and i made the devil python meat.

He showed them a plate of cut meat pieces, Demon devil python that was well cooked and some nice sauce with it.

Zack: now to make the sake and we can enjoy ourselves.

Komatsu: Whoa these are amazing zacks! Are you sure you're not a chief?

Zack: oh yes I am, I hunt, cook and make it good.

Blake: I want to eat the fish.

Coco: You know we're making them for sake right Blake?

Blake: I want it all!

Toriko: We give fewer spares to the cats.

Blake is about to touch the fish but her and Taokaka's hand touch the fish, they slowly turn each other.

Blake: Tao, my old friend who's like a sister to me, you should know I work hard to remove the poison.

Toakaka: and Tao capture them all without scaring them or else they turn bad! So I work hard!

Zack: you both worked very hard, so why not share?

Blake and taokaka: it's mine!

Zack: Share you two and I'll make sandwiches out of them.

Blake and taokaka: okay!

Zack: Okay I'll save the half for the girls at my home for the sake and the other half for Blake and taokaka and the other for here as the sake.

Toriko: You okay drink sake?

Zack: I'm highly immune of alcohol.

Toriko: alright then, now…

Everyone: (clap their hands) we gave humble thanks to the vast bounty this world provides, and now, let's eat!

As everybody began the first taste and drink of piranhaconda Crostini and puffer whale Sashimi and sake, Zack's Gourmet cells reacted to the Crostini and his body jolted and started twitching and even more with the Puffer Whale Sashimi.

Zack: is like a roller coaster of two flavors making a combination, pumping the veins and blood on my body like crazy magic!

Blake: The puffer whales, these fish are so scrumptious, so heavy!

Taokaka: tao in fishy heaven! When Tao chews, more fish flavors keep coming!

Toriko: so sweet, so fat and delicious, is like the marble meat of the micale wale mixed with a fat blue fish tuna without the guilt and the taste keeps on getting better on chewing bite, the more I chew the more my jaw hurts but it is so worth it.

Toriko swallowed as his body felt buffed up.

Toriko: whoa! I am feeling so alive! I heard puffer whales are nutrient supplements but not like this!

Komatsu: the puffer wale sake is ready!

Zack and Toriko: gimmie!

They took a cup and drank it.

Zack: woah!

Blake: it touches the soul.

Taokaka: tao make this fish top of tao's fishy list!

Toriko: wow this sake is incredible, I feel its warmth rushing through my vans (swallows it) the sweetness of the fin, complimented by the dry sake, it's infiltrating every cell in my body!

Zack: yo komatsu how you like the puffer wale?

Komatsu: it's the best! Best thing ever! In my life!

Zack: you got that right, tao and blake how was it?

Blake: it tastes magnificent! it's so juicy and so scrumptious it melts in your tongue!

Taokaka: Tao loves this fish! Tao wants to eat this every day!

Zack: cool. (senses something) is here, look!

They see coming out of the lake is a black fur figure with a mechanic beak face and mechanic hands and feet, a black mist aura and a net of puffer whale fish.

Zack: toriko! Coco! Tao! Blake! Stop!

Toriko: zack, is that the one you talk about?

Zack: yes, and is not looking for a fight, it went deep into the lake and caught them all.

It turns on them then zack.

Zack: if you can't speak at least understand you got what you want and so do we, no beat it.

?: oh? Is that a way to say hello orion?

They turn to see a tank drone in robot mode and capture in a net full of puffer wale fish and aura is purple.

Zack: (narrow his eyes) dung.

This makes toriko and coco glared.

Komatsu: dung?!

Taokaka hissed and Blake got her weapon ready.

Zack: So you're alive.

Tank drone/ dung: can't die easily as I'm too stubborn like you, so I got help.

He turns to toriko and coco.

Tank drone/dung: hahahaha the two students of andrew, toriko and coco, hey there. It's been so long to seeyah, miss me?

Toriko: you bastard!

Tank drone/dung: oh come now that's rude, but anyways I've been told that these Puffer Whales are so delectable, so I like to sample them myself, poisoned or clean.

Coco: you have no right to have them

Tank drone/ dung: oh go suck a scorpion or a cobra, too bad the piranhaconda got taken, oh well. Like Orion said we both got what we wanted, but don't think the next time we meet it's not gonna be the same after all.… I'll take two worlds and make it my recipe for disaster, now that sounds delicious to me. well then, ta-ta.

As the two robots left, Komatsu dropped to his butt.

Zack: and we'll stop them

Timeskip

At home, Zack with the girl trying the puffer whale fish and sake along the piranhaconda too, the girls all moaned in delight over the two foods.

Zack: So what do you girls think?

Yang: I got to say, this is delicious!

Medaka: indeed, it's quite divine to taste.

Zack: Also, (pull out evil ben's omnitrix) I took evil ben's omnitrix.

Alexis: So you faced him in the cave?

Zack: yeah and noob saibot, blake and tao took him out.

Blake: That jerk said an awful thing to zack.

Tokaka: everything about what blue guy! Tao kaka punch blob dead thing to pieces!

Zack: So who wants this omnitrix?

Ruby: Well, we need to think about it, I mean, we're in a world full of very Delicious food! (sparkle eyes) AND WILL YOU BRING ME ANY COOKIES HERE ON YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE?!

Zack: yeah but you sure think cookies in a second.

Yang: could you blame her? She loves mom's cookies so much she'll eat anything cookie related.

Zack: heh I don't blame her , I do love oreos too.

Yang: of course you two are crumbling for each other.

Zack chuckle while the girls groan.

Zack: (begin to drool later at a waterfall) I wonder if this world has root beer and oreos, even hamburgers.

Weiss: There's a potability of one.

Zack: also girls, big news, my dad it's alive!

Medaka: (flick her fan) well that's wonderful news!

Ruby and yang: really?!

Zack: Yeah, toriko told me as is for real that my dad karate chop a devil python.

Ruby: what's that?

Blake: picture it a very dangerous snake beast, way dangerous and deadly acid then a grimm snake.

Ruby: woah!

Taokaka: and Tao went super smart with blue guy's smart candy!

Girls: unbelievable.

Blake: is true, she says some words and no third person.

Alexis: hmm.

Yang: did she correct the names?

Zack: yes.

Yang: woah.

Zack: anyway yang and chitoge you two are up next with me.

Chitoge: a-are you sure?

Zack: yeah.

Chitoge: I don't know.

Zack: the enemy noob saibot calls me a beyond freak and nobody from what Blake told me.

Chitoge: …. (crack her knuckles) let me at it!

Yang: that's my girl!

Zack: good, watch out dung! When me, the girls and the heavenly kings come to right the wrong of your dish! Cuz it's time to roll out!

They turn to see akaru and Andrew shocks them.

Zack: m-mom...dad.

Akaru: hey sweetie!

Andrew:(smile) mind if we have some of your piranhaconda?
