Lunamugetsu: I do not own Toriko
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Previously:
"I wasn't staring." he said
"Sure you weren't" Ram said
"I wasn't" Toriko said
BOOM!
The group looked over to the sound of the noise to see that part of the mountain was starting to collapse. Match quickly went out his tent to see what the noise was.
"What's happening?" Match asked
"Everyone, get ready quickly. We're heading out!" Toriko yelled.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
"What was that?" Kimiko asked
"The others that are trying to get the soup like we are, did that. We better hurry!" Toriko shouted making everyone pack up.
So you decided to show yourselves, Bishokukai, Toriko thought
"Um, Toriko-san" Kimiko said getting his attention. She gestured to Yun, who was flapping his wings in excitement. "What am I going to do with him?"
"If he's gonna follow you, there's nothing you can do. In exchange, make sure you look after him. Okay, let's go!" Toriko shouted
"O-Okay" she turned to the penguin, "Hey, you. I'm asking nicely, so will you please calm down, and come with me?" the penguin kept on flapping his wings wildly. She sighed and crouched down to the penguin's eye level. "Please calm down." she said calmly. "Or I won't be able to take you with me." The penguin stood still for a moment and stopped flapping his wings looking at Kimiko.
"Thank you" she said
"Yun!" he chirped in delight
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
BOOM!
"It's close the Century Soup!" Toriko exclaimed as the group ran towards the sound of the explosion.
"Really" Kimiko said as she carried Yun in her arms
"I can smell it. It's probably below the ground in this area." He answered
"You can tell that? I can't even see the aurora." Takimaru said
"I remember the smell from Granny Setsu's shop!" Toriko said and then an explosion occurred behind them.
"Those guys. Are they trying to destroy the Gourmet Show Window as well?!" Toriko's eyes widened as he sensed something, "Everybody get down! Something's coming!"
Everybody gasped as they saw a swarm of beetles come towards them that had orange markings and large pincers.

Jongal Stag Beetle (Insect Beast) Capture Level-38
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Kimiko watched as a beetle started to zigzag around her, that she immediately curled to cover the baby penguin that was in her arms.
"Kimiko!" Toriko yelled as he ran towards Kimiko and covered her with his body. He grunted in pain as the beetle attacked his shoulder.
"Toriko-san!" Kimiko exclaimed in worry.
"Don't worry, Kimiko. I'm fine." he said
"Guys!" Match exclaimed as he saw his subordinates suffering the same thing as the beetles flew to attack their limbs. He quickly withdrew his sword and slashed at the beetle coming for him only for the beetle to dodge.
They're fast, he thought and was then grazed by one of the beatles
"FLYING KNIFE!" Toriko shouted as he launched his attack on an oncoming beetle only for it to dodge and attack him in his abdomen.
"Toriko-san!" Kimiko exclaimed while she kept on trying to cover the penguin in her arms. Watching as everyone struggled to fight against the swarm of beetles that were attacking them.
"They're fast." Takimaru said as he tried to shield himself from the beatles.
"Single attacks won't hurt them." Toriko said and then thought for a moment. "The power and speed will decrease, but here goes. Rapid-fire type FLYING FORK!" he shouted as he aimed for a beetle which dodged and then tried to burrow in Toriko's stomach. Toriko winced and then threw off the beetle.
"7 REN KUGI PUNCH!" Toriko yelled as he aimed directly at the bug sending it back, "Everyone be careful! These bugs will try to burrow inside your bodies!"
"Ice gun!" Shin yelled firing on one of the beetles only for it to dodge
"Shin!" Match said and then stood in front of him. "That thing's shell is as hard as armor. You have to aim for the joints!" He waited for the beetle to come close and then knocked it back with the handle of his katana.
"Exhaustion. Meuchi Ichirin Zashi!" he said bringing his sword directly down onto the beetle piercing its abdomen. "Kaiten Kabutowari!" he sliced the thing in two.
"You did it!" Shin exclaimed
"It's not over don't let your guard down!" Toriko exclaimed. They watched as the two pieces of the beetle started to attach itself back together and started flying again.
"What?" Match said as the beetle started to go straight for Shin.
"KNIFE!" Toriko yelled as he sliced the beetle into multiple pieces letting it drop to the ground.
"Geez, such powerful life force." Match said
"I can't believe there are bugs here in this freezing land. Is this a species that's adapted to the sub-zero temperatures?" Toriko said. "Or was it brought her by someone else."
"Yun. Yun. Yun. Yun. Yun." the penguin kept on repeating while crying
"It's going to be okay, little guy." Kimiko said trying to comfort him, "We're alright now"
"I'd really like to bring that little guy safely back to his parents, but in this situation. And when his parents do come, it'll get a lot worse. They're ferocious, and they'll go on a rampage." Toriko said as he watched Kimiko rock the penguin back and forth trying to comfort him. That's when he felt a powerful aura behind him, and immediately turned around to see who it was . Only to see that there was nobody behind him, and then he saw that the rest of the beetles were flying away to a certain location.
"What's going on?" Takimaru said
"Looks like something else is coming" Match said as the group saw three figures flying their way.
"Who are they?" Kimiko said
"So you've come, Bishokukai?" Toriko growled as he saw a man with pink hair and polkadotted clothes and wings come closer towards them along with a man wearing a suit and sunglasses and another wearing chains and gauntlets around his arms.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
"Bi-Bishokukai?!" Takimaru exclaimed in alarm as they watch the three people come closer.
"Brace yourselves." Toriko warned, "It's do or die, now!"
"And we're here!" the pink haired man sang as he touched the ground, "Hey, nice to meetcha! So you're Toriko, huh?" The man then did something unexpected as he then hugged Toriko while laughing. "Sayonara."
Toriko grunted in pain as everyone saw that the man had impaled his hand into Toriko's abdomen.
"Toriko-san!" Kimiko shouted in alarm as the pink haired man kept on laughing.
"Thanks," Toriko said making the pink haired man stop laughing and then realized that he couldn't pull his hand out. "For coming right into my range all of a sudden. I sincerely welcome it."
"Hey.. I can't get it out.." the man muttered
"In a close-range fight, it'll be easy for me to give you a greeting, too." Toriko clenched his fist
"10 REN KUGI PUN-" Before Toriko could punch the pink haired man. The Bishokukai opened his mouth letting Toriko see that there was something in his mouth. The thing then launched itself out of the man's mouth and latched itself onto Toriko's right arm. That's when the rest of the group heard some deep chirping from a distance. Kimiko looked over to see two gigantic adult sized Wall Penguins who were dark blue in color with a lighter belly, and both were very, very mad.

Wall Penguin (Bird Beast) Capture Level-30
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
"Uh oh" Kimiko said as she saw the two angry parents.
"Yun! Yun! Yun!" the baby penguin chirped happily, at seeing his parents.
"The Wall Penguin's parents" Toriko said
"They came looking for their child!" Takimaru said
"What're those things?" one of the Bishokukai said
"They think we've kidnapped their child" Toriko explained
"N-N-No, we didn't!" exclaimed while panicking as she saw the two parents then jump over towards them sending the entire group up into the air. In their anger they kept on jumping around causing the ice to break beneath the group's feet. Sending them pummeling down into a lower level.
"Ow" Kimiko said as she tried to push herself up, that was when she saw that a light was shining on her face. She stood up in awe as she saw what the source of the light was. It was a large tower of ice with various ingredients encased within it ranging from vegetables to different creatures.
"Here it is." Kimiko said as she marveled at the figure before her, "We found it! The Gourmet Show Window!"
"It's so beautiful" Takimaru said as the others were marveling at it, "This is the Legendary Gourmet Show Window!"
"Yun! Yun! Yun! Yun! Yun! Yun!" Kimiko looked over to see that the baby Wall Penguin was now safe with his parents who were now calm and happy.
"This means that the Century Soup is accumulating below here." Kimiko looked over at Toriko and her eyes widened at the sight of his left arm which was now encased in ice, "Kimiko, you go get the soup."
"What?" Kimiko said as she kept on glancing at his arm
"At a glance, this Gourmet Show Window looks divine, but the ingredients in there are withering away." Toriko said making Kimiko look back to indeed see that the vegetables were becoming rotten and the creatures were becoming shriveled. "The smell is weak, too But what concerns me the most is that I can't see the aurora at all. So there's a high possibility that not a lot of soup stock will come out of it. There may only be a small amount of soup left. Get it before they do."
"But, Toriko-san" Kimiko said
"I'll hold them off here." Toriko said looking at the three bishokukai that fell down with them
"So the soup's below here?" the pink haired man said
"Hurry, Kimiko!" Toriko yelled
"Y-Yeah" Kimiko said before quickly running to get the soup.
"Bogey, Barry, get rid of her." the pink haired man said to the two other Bishokukai
"Yes sir" they said before going after Kimiko
"Shit! Kimiko!" Toriko cursed as he looked to see her running toward an entrance through the ice
"I can get in through there." Kimiko said as she ran, towards the opening. Before the two Bishokukai could reach her, Match and Takimaru blocked their path.
"Takimaru, Match" Toriko grinned at the two
"Who the hell are you!" one of them said
"I've got nothing against you, but unfortunately, we're after the soup as well." Match said
"Takimaru-san, Match-san" Kimiko said as she looked behind her.
"Don't get the wrong idea! If you hog all the soup for yourself. I'll just be taking it from you next" Match said
"I wouldn't do anything like that. I'll definitely secure enough soup for everyone! Including the children of Nerg!" Kimiko shouted making Match smile
"Kimiko!" Toriko yelled making her look at him. He smiled, "I'm counting on you!"
"Toriko-san" Kimiko said and then smiled, "Leave it to me!" she then went down the tunnel as Match's subordinates guarded the entrance as well.
"That kid!" one of the Bishokukai said
"It's fine, leave her alone" the pink haired man said
"But."
"We'll slaughter them all anyhow, the order doesn't matter. I'll make sure to send something special to her." he then opened his mouth letting insects fly out.
"I see. You're an insect beast-user, huh?:" Toriko said as he watched the insects
"Cute, aren't they?"
"Let me hear your name, bastard." Toriko said
"I'm Tommyrod. Bishokukai Sous Chef." he introduced himself
"It's strange to see one of you not use a GT Robo, did you use them all up on Regal Island?" Toriko said
"They're coming! The GT Robo!" Tommyrod yelled, "But i wonder, just where might they be right now? Doesn't matter, since I don't need them. Anyways, Toriko. Is it okay if I kill you right now!" Tommyrod smiled as his insects swarmed around him.
