Toriko: Gourmet Chat Group

Knocking!

Thump!

Kenji stood on the surface of the Black Triangle's sea. He slammed a fist down on the water, and ripples spread out in all directions. The surging black ocean fell still, the liquid becoming like a solidified solid.

A massive creature appeared before the two of them, merged with the ocean itself, but with visible eyes and a mouth, a bit like a slime.

The Namibouzu, a Sea Current Beast, Capture Level 1600.

"The Namibouzu... just like that Water Tiger, its edible meat must be hidden beneath the seawater," Atashino analyzed, then said to Kenji, "Use your fire to evaporate the seawater on its body."

"Leave it to me."

A ball of fire appeared in Kenji's palm. He casually tossed it onto the Namibouzu. As if it had met gasoline, the creature began to burn fiercely. The seawater evaporated rapidly, and a rich, fragrant aroma drifted through the air, smelling much like grilled fish. After the water on the mountain-sized Namibouzu had evaporated, only a pitiful amount of meat remained.

Voom!

Gravity erupted from Kenji's palm, and the Namibouzu's grilled meat was pulled directly into his hand. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, cooked to a perfect ten-tenths.

"Nom, nom..."

"The texture is very similar to grilled fatty tuna. The taste of the ocean is so rich," Kenji commented as he chewed. The taste was only average, not particularly delicious.

"Let's go back to the Human World and prepare. The next time we come to the Gourmet World, it will be to capture Acacia's Full Course Menu," Kenji said, taking Atashino and leaving the Gourmet World.

When it was time to capture PAIR, he would have to bring the zombie Zongeh with him in advance. He also needed to bring Melk the Second; the Golden Cookware required a grinder.

The Cooking Fest had ended. Although Komatsu didn't win first place this time, he had made it into the top three. For a chef ranked 88th in the world to achieve such a result was unbelievable to everyone except Toriko and those who were familiar with Komatsu.

"Congratulations, Komatsu! From now on, other people will be asking you for your autograph."

The Gourmet Hotel had been booked out for the day. Toriko and the others were throwing a celebration for Komatsu.

"Haha, Chef Yuda and the others probably weren't using their real skills," Komatsu said, scratching his head with a laugh. First place was Setsuno, second was Brunch, and he was third. To be ranked behind those two was something everyone considered perfectly reasonable.

"This is the salad, AIR. Uncle Ichiryu said I could give it to you after you fought the Four-Beast," Kenji said, taking out the salad.

Toriko suddenly asked, "If we had eaten this beforehand, could one of us have dealt with the Four-Beast alone?"

"That's right. You could have solved the Four-Beast's main body in an instant." After eating AIR, they would have unlocked their demon's left arm. The Four-Beast's main body would have been a...

The corners of the Four Heavenly Kings' mouths twitched. Their old man was really looking out for them. It seemed that beating was necessary.

"Since you've already captured the salad, AIR, Kenji, which ingredient should we start with?" Coco asked.

"After you've rested, you can go to the Seventh Area to capture PAIR first. After that will be the other ingredients of the menu. GOD will be the last to appear," Kenji replied. "GOD still needs about two more years to mature."

"Toriko, didn't you agree to marry Rin? Why not get it done during this time?"

"After we get GOD, I'll marry Rin," Toriko said, scratching his head.

Sunny said nothing. His little sister's heart was completely tied to Toriko. He knew Toriko well and was naturally at ease. Heh, in the future, when Toriko becomes my brother-in-law, he'll have to respectfully call me 'big brother'.

[Crash-Test Pilot]: Teacher Hikari, the swordsmanship you taught me is really too strong.

Daigo was getting more and more skilled with his lightsaber. Before, his horn-cutting was uneven, but now, the cuts were as smooth as a mirror, as if they had been polished with sandpaper. He hadn't noticed, but recent news reports had been saying that Tiga was becoming more and more ruthless, like a monster-slaying machine. After getting the lightsaber, the number of times Tiga had dismembered monsters had increased significantly, making one feel a little sorry for the monsters.

Ace's inner thought: Monsters and Choju feel no pain.

[Lifts-Bemstar-With-One-Hand]: I'm just a scientist. Swordsmanship is not my area of expertise.

[Star Forger]: Daigo, are you addicted to playing with the Space Needle?

[Crash-Test Pilot]: It's very handy. I just turn on Power Type and kill the monster with the lightsaber.

Tiga speaks not of feats of strength, but of strange gods and chaotic forces. Wasn't Tiga supposed to be a mage?

[Star Forger]: Daigo, you could call that sword of yours the "Sword of Benevolence."

The character for benevolence, "仁" (rén), is composed of the characters for "person" (人) and "two" (二). The Sword of Benevolence... splits a monster in two.

[Crash-Test Pilot]: That sounds pretty good.

[Miss Pink Elf♪]: Fufu, what have you been up to lately ♪?

[Lady Justice]: I feel like the borders of Teyvat are a bit brittle, so I'm using the power of Preservation to build a wall.

As an Emanator of Preservation, laying bricks was naturally a basic skill.

[Star Forger]: Qlipoth gives you a thumbs-up and is tilting a little more power in your direction.

Compared to the Corporation's Emanators, what Furina was doing was much more in line with the Path of Preservation.

[Lady Justice]: Forging a crystal wall of Preservation for Teyvat will take some time.

In Furina's view, only a wall that could defend against an Emanator could be considered somewhat safe, preventing any uninvited guests from entering. If one layer wasn't enough, she would just build a few more. Ten layers, minimum.

Build the wall, build the wall—

[Star Forger]: The people who usually maintain the borders are probably going to have an easy time now.

[Lady Justice]: You're talking about Alice and the others, right? I've already met them.

Furina still remembered their shocked expressions, as if they had seen something unbelievable. As members of the Hexenzirkel, they had some understanding of Furina's strength, but the power of an Emanator of Preservation was just too far beyond the standard.

Furina: I have obtained power from beyond this world. Imaginary energy is really useful.

[Ahoge King]: Kenji, what is the other me doing now?

[Star Forger]: Eating junk food and watching TV on a marshmallow sofa.

Kenji glanced at Saber Alter. She didn't get fat at all, so she didn't even like to move.

[Ahoge King]: ...

I'm envious, but I won't say it.

[Gudako]: Lia, if you're envious, you can come to my Chaldea to play.

[Ahoge King]: I'll pass.

[Galactic Baseballer]: The Astral Express is also very big.

Artoria's inner thought: Do you guys have a Holy Grail?

[Star Forger]: @Monkey D. Kizaru Kizaru, how many pirates did you catch at Sabaody?

[Monkey D. Kizaru]: A few of the Supernovas hid beforehand, but I sent most of the pirate Supernovas to the underwater prison. Now I have to prepare to welcome Whitebeard.

He couldn't stay at the Sabaody Archipelago for too long; he couldn't search door to door. Executing the Pirate King's son... the pressure on Marine HQ was also immense. Don't look down on Whitebeard just because he was old and sick. When he really erupted, the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was world-destroying.

[Star Forger]: If the three of you Admirals went all out, how long could an elderly, unwell Whitebeard last?

Kenji was speechless. With the combat power at Marine HQ, the battle didn't need to be so drawn-out. The Admiral Akainu was the MVP of the entire battle's damage output, yet he got his kidneys hit hard by Whitebeard; who knows if they were shattered. At the final tally: Akainu was heavily injured, Aokiji was lightly injured, and Kizaru's clothes were slightly dirty. Of the three Admirals present, only Akainu was really putting in the effort. How pitiful.

[Monkey D. Kizaru]: You can't say that. The commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates are also kowai ne~. They're like monsters.

I'll believe you when pigs fly, Kenji thought, speechless.
