Chapter 33
" they're fast!" Takimaru said
" KNIFE!" Toriko said as he tried to hit one of the stag beetles but the beetle swiftly dodged it. " single attacks won't work, the power and speed will decrease, but for this...FLYING FORK!" As he unleashed it but the beetle was too fast as he kept attacking trying to land a strike.
' focus Aiko!...I haven't actually mastered it yet... I gotta focus my Reiki on the palm of my hands...' She though
" Everyone be careful!" Toriko said " these bugs'll try to bury into your bodies!"
As a few bugs went after Aiko
" Aiko!" Toriko exclaimed as he was in front of her before she could strike.
" Toriko-kun! I can handle this!"Aiko said
" I don't want you to get hurt Aiko!" Toriko said
' Damn it! Why won't he let me do this! What the hells wrong with him?!' Aiko though ' I can't focus when he's like this! I can't use that move when he's in the way! Il have to use my normal attacks il just save that move when there's a stronger enemy instead'
" just stay behind me Aiko" Toriko said
" Toriko-kun! I can handle this!" Aiko said " Reiki pyro punch!" As she hit a few of beetles as those got caught on fire.
" ice gun!" As one of match's subordinates tries to hit the beetle. As match stood in front.
" that things shell is as hard as armor" match said "you gotta aim for the joints" as the nettle went at him as he hit it using the bud of his sword. " Exhaustion...MEUCHI ICHIRIN ZASHI!" As he stabbed the beetle "KAITEN KABUTWARI!" As he swiftly split the beetle in half.
" you did it!"
"It's not over yet! Don't let your guard down!" Toriko said
As the beetle re attached itself as it aimed at Aiko as Toriko quickly got in front of her " KNIFE!" He said as he crushed the beetle in pieces.
" Geez, such powerful life force" match said
" it's weird that there's bugs in this place " Aiko said
" I wonder if this species adapts to the sub Zero's temperature?" Toriko said " or else was it brought here by someone?"
As Toriko and Aiko heard the baby penguin making noise as komatsu comforting it. As Aiko ran up to them.
" um, little guy it's okay" komatsu said " Come on, don't cry, okay?"
" oh don't worry little guy. Don't cry shh don't cry okay" Aiko said
" I'd like to bring the little guy safely back to his parents, but..." Toriko said "in this situation it'll be difficult and when the wall penguins do come it'll get a lot worse "
" see Ai-chan's right it's okay now" komatsu said as he hugged the baby penguin
' What was that? I just felt a strong pressure' Aiko though
As all of the remaining bugs retreated
" I think something else is coming" Aiko said
As they saw three figures
" so you've come bishokukai?" Toriko said
one of the three Had a bug-like appearance complete with cockroach-like wings. He sports a bob cut hairstyle with a pink hair, large eyes with black pupils, an almost no visible nose He wore a navy blue polka dotted shirt dotted pink, a light purple veil around his waist, and pink pants. The one on the right looked like a normal man wearing a black suit. The one on the left is a muscular man with a mustache and beard. He has tusks on his mouth and what looked like a few pieces of metal as armor.
" Bi-Bishokukai?" Takimaru said " is that then Toriko-San?"
" guys be careful stay alert!" Aiko said
" and we're here! Nice to meet' cha!" Tommyrod said as he hugged Toriko " so you're Toriko huh?" As he stabbed him " Goodbye"
" Toriko-kun!" Aiko exclaimed
" Toriko-San!" Komatsu exclaimed
As Tommyrod tries to pull out but he was stuck.
" thanks" Toriko said "for coming right into my range all of a sudden, I sincerely welcome it!"
" hey...I can't get out!" Tommyrod said
" in a close range fight, it'll be easy for me to give you a greeting too!" Toriko said " 10 REN KUGI PUN.." As he stopped when Tommyrod opened his mouth releasing a gust of wind as he saw a pale and black eyed bug in the mouth.
wall penguin ( bird beast) capture level 30
" what?" Komatsu said as the group saw two adult wall penguins
" it's the wall penguin parents!" Aiko said
" they came looking for their child!"Takimaru said
" what is that thing?" Barrygamon said
" they think we kidnapped him" Toriko said as the Penguins parents looked at the group
" N-No we didn't!"Komatsu exclaimed
" We just found the little guy! " Aiko exclaimed
As the wall penguins started thrashing and jumping all over the place as the floor that Toriko and the others stood cracked and collapse making the group fall inside the hole as they landed komatsu and aiko looked to see something bright and shining.
Meanwhile with Coco
" kiss hurry" Coco said
As he rode on kiss as they headed north.
" if the bishokukai overtake me, well be in trouble " Coco said " if they get their hands on the soup they'll most likely invade the gourmet world and if that happens God will be taken, but according to my fortune telling even now the century soup already is...I just hope my prediction is incorrect "
Back with Toriko and the others
As komatsu and aiko stood in front of the glittering ice incased in that giant ice was a number of different kinds of ingredients.
" I can't believe it" aiko said
" here it is! We've found it!" Komatsu Exclaimed" the gourmet show window!"
" it's so beautiful " takimaru said " this is the legendary gourmet show window?"
As aiko and komatsu saw the little baby penguin was happily reunited with its parents.
"That means the century soup is accumulated below here" Toriko said
" Toriko-San!" Komatsu said
" Toriko-kun! Your hand!"aiko exclaimed as she saw Toriko with his right hand frozen. As she ran to him putting her hands on the frozen arm as she checked it.
" Komatsu you go get the soup" Toriko said " at a glance, this gourmet show window is divine but the ingredients inside are withering away, the smell is weak too"
" this worries me because I can't see the aurora " aiko said
"So there's a high possibility that there isn't enough soup stock " Toriko said " there might be a small amount of soup get it before they do"
" Toriko-San...Ai-chan..." Komatsu said
" I'll hold them off here" Toriko said
" you mean we'll hold them off" Aiko said as she clasped her hands together
" so the soup's below here?" Tommyrod said
" go Komatsu!" Toriko said
" go find the soup!" Aiko said
" Bogey, Barry get rid of him" Tommyrod said
" this is bad!" Toriko said
" like hell they'll get him!" Aiko said
" I think I can go down here" Komatsu said as he ran towards a tunnel as takimaru and match quickly went to block the bishokukai from. Getting to Komatsu.
" takimaru, match" Toriko said
" huh? Who the hell are you?" Barry said
"I've got nothing against you guys" match said " but unfortunately we're after the soup as well" as he turn his head to Komatsu " don't get the wrong idea! If you hog all the soup for yourself I'll just take it from you next"
"I wouldn't do anything like that" Komatsu said " I'll definitely secure enough for everyone! Including the children of Nerg!"
"Komatsu!" Toriko and Aiko shouted
" yes?!"Komatsu said
"I'm counting on you" Toriko said
" Don't let us down" Aiko said
" Toriko-San...Ai-chan..." Komatsu said " okay leave it to me!" As he left going down below.
" that guy!" Barry said
" it's fine" Tommyrod said " leave him alone"
" but!"
" we'll slaughter them all anyhow" Tommyrod said " the order doesn't matter and I'll make sure to send something after him" as he spat out a black cloud to reveal a few insects.
" so you're the one with the bugs" Aiko said ' great first the giant mosquito that ate the BBcorn now this cockroach guy?! I should've packed that bug spray! I keep forgetting!' She though
" yep. Oh you must be the Girl they mentioned" Tommyrod said " the one that hangs out with Toriko. Looks like I'll kill you too"
"Let me hear your name you bastard" Toriko said as he stood in front of Aiko.
" I'm tommyrod" he said "Bishokukai sous chef"
" it's unusual for you to not be using Gt robots" Toriko said " or maybe did you use them all on the regal island?"
" I heard the recovery was a failure too" Aiko said
" they're coming the Gt robots!" Tommyrod said
" what?" Toriko said
"But I wonder where they might be right now?" Tommyrod said " Pff I don't need them anyhow, anyways Toriko..." As tommyrod unleashed his demon aura " is it okay if I kill you and the girl right now?"
' when Toriko-kun fought starjun it was a Gt robot and with the grinpatch guy he was just playing around...' Aiko though
" this'll be my first serious battle fighting with someone of the sous chef class in the flesh" Toriko said " takimaru and match those guys are probably high ranking enemies too. Part of the Bishokukai management class" as he glanced at the others.
" I don't like it when people look away from me Toriko!" Tommyrod exclaimed " Come on let's play!"
" I can't use my right hand" Toriko muttered " I don't know what'll come my way but I'm gonna be facing a sous chef with this handicap...Aiko be careful of what this guy does we don't know what we're facing"
" we're facing him together so I got your back" Aiko said
"Takimaru! Match! I'm leaving these guys to you! While Aiko and me handle him!" Toriko yelled out
As Toriko let out his appetite demon unleashing the red aura as Aiko unleashed her white aura.
" don't drag me down takimaru boy" match said
"You, too old man don't get in my way" takimaru said
" now then" bogey said
" wanna get started?" Barry said
As Tommyrod unleashed his blue aura As his Appetite Demon takes the form of a blue-skinned octopus-like being as he faced off against Toriko and Aiko as they're appetite demons unleashed.
