Someone once said...
that there is a croquette valley which expels a mist of warm steam.
And if you walk on it, it lets out a fragrant smell and a crunchy sound.
A Croqually.
That on a sweet custard cream ground, Custound,
Chou A La Kurim, Kurim Red Bean Soup, and Ekurirs,
( "Kuri" is the Japanese word for "chestnut". It's being used as a pun on the word "cream" and "eclair" here. )
as well as other snacks grow on a chestnut tree.
A Kurim Tree.
The world is in the Gourmet Age.
The age of seeking yet-unknown tastes.
Having traveled to Wu Jungle,
Toriko successfully captured the BB Corn.
Meanwhile, Komatsu obtained the key to saving the Gourmet Summit,
the Wulstar Sauce Fruit.
Toriko made popcorn out of the BB Corn,
and tasted it with Terry.
At that point, an envoy for the Bishokukai appeared.
Toriko learned that Bishokukai's goal was the same as his own,
the pinnacle of all ingredients in this world, God.
Pressure of Insanity!
Grinparch VS Toriko!
Right now, I feel like I could even slice through a giant BB Corn!
Right now I can only cut your skin a little.
But eventually, even from this range,
I'll cut your life in half!
I'd expect nothing less from you.
But it's really something that you've become able to attack from a distance.
However, you couldn't even break the rock apart.
With only that level of attack,
you'd better not be thinking you've conquered your Achilles heel of attack range, Toriko!
Let me show you the difference between your little air gun and my missile!
Yeah, you're right.
At this stage,
I still can't give you real damage.
I'm well aware of that!
Take this, Toriko!
My Breath Bazooka's long range cannon!
Now!
Looks like I managed to break that straw.
How'd you get behind me?
The temperature of the ground is 1,200 degrees!
That Flying Knife I used before wasn't aimed at you.
It was the dead Magma Rat.
Yes, the Magma Rat's pelt.
The reason I provoked you after that was to lure you into using an even stronger attack.
And sure enough, you let out a breath that narrowed your field of vision.
In that moment, going across the Magma Rat pelts,
I made it here.
Even though Knife and Fork evolved,
I couldn't expect to do damage to you without getting close.
You really are something, Toriko!
Well done, interesting!
You've gotten really damn interesting!
Hm? Oh...
What the hell?!
I was just getting to the good part and the Head Chef calls?
That's it for today, Toriko.
I've gotta get back to headquarters right away.
Ooh, good. Looks like my pet's finally getting back.
What?!
Jack Elephant (Insect Beast) Estimated Capture Level - 85
I had fun today, Toriko.
It was a good way of killing some time.
Next time we meet, we'll play all we want, okay?!
Hey, wait, dammit!
Gimme back the BB Corn you ate!
Well, you broke apart my straw.
Now we're even. See ya!
Even?!
Then at least tell me your name!
My name is Grinparch.
Bishokukai Sous Chef.
Terry?
Good job escaping.
You did great Terry. That was plenty.
But starting now, we've got to get much, much stronger.
Grinparch. He wasn't fighting seriously at all.
That's the power of the Bishokukai Sous Chefs...
I wanted to suck them up so bad!
Toriko and that dog!
I guess I've gotta wait till they grow a little more!
Um, momentarily...
the Gourmet Summit dinner party will be beginning.
However, the head chef of the hotel managing the summit, Hotel Gourmet,
has yet to make an appearance.
In 5 more minutes, the Bubbly Tuna will reach its peak.
So if it goes even one second past the peak, it'll become inedible, huh?
Chef Komatsu! Please hurry and get back!
If President Dohem cannot be satiated with cooking,
the Gourmet Bill won't be passed.
For the sake of world peace, we must avoid that from happening!
You!
Send out the Bubbly Tuna with the sauce Chef Komatsu made.
But this sauce is incomplete...
It's better than sending out nothing!
There are fears that if the summit should fail, serious international problems would arise...
The direction of the summit would...
For me, that was a beaut'ful and wild landing.
Would you please properly land it on the roof?
And do it a little more quietly?
I told you, we were over capacity and the controls weren't working!
And yet I somehow managed to get us here on time, ain't that enough?!
Tina?
It seems the Hotel Gourmet head chef is here.
Could I have a comment?
Chef, what kind of seasoning are you planning to add to it?!
Komatsu-kun, hurry, go!
R-Right!
Wait!
I'm counting on you, Tina!
O-Okay!
This is Bubbly Tuna?
In another 3 minutes the Bubbly Tuna will reach its peak of flavor.
Now then, please add the sauce.
Y-Yes, sir.
Komatsu-kun!
I've got to...
finish cooking the Bubbly Tuna!
There's no time!
It's coming! The Bubbly Tuna's peak!
P-Please wait!
Chef Komatsu!
That sauce... Wait...
One taste... Just one more touch...
Let me prepare it!
Wh-What?
If the time runs out on the Bubbly Tuna,
it turns into bubbles and disappears.
Just like the legend of the Little Mermaid, who couldn't convey her feelings to the one she loved and turned into sea foam.
That is the reason why it bears the names Mermaituna and Bubbly Tuna.
It can't be...
My long awaited Bubbly Tuna...
You got me excited for nothing!
Forget this silly summit, I'm returning to my country!
President, please wait just a moment!
Just a little!
I'm leaving!
Let me go!
I can't believe it...
Komatsu-kun...
That effort won't go down the drain.
Coco-san!
There's this, as well.
That's B-Bubbly Tuna!
What?
The truth is...
Whew, thanks to you pointing us in the direction of the Mermaituna, Coco-san,
we managed to capture three of them.
We'll definitely make a killing from this!
Kiss. You came to get me?
All right, I'll be taking my leave.
As you promised, as compensation for the fortune telling
I'll be taking one Bubbly Tuna.
And so, I hurried here with the Bubbly Tuna.
Coco-san!
You really are incredible!
A-Another damn beaut'ful appearance!
I'm so pissed off!
You may have gone through a lot to get it here, but that Bubbly Tuna is not worth eating.
Bubbly Tuna matures starting from when it's caught and reaches its peak taste after seven days.
After just being caught, the flavor will be weak.
No! If I make a sauce using a Wulstar Sauce Fruit, it should make up the difference in taste!
Huh? It's still missing one flavor.
I see, there wasn't enough salt content...
I-I'll go get the salt!
Ordinary salt won't be enough for the impact of this flavor.
Then how?
Isn't the Wulstar Sauce Fruit the fruit that makes the ultimate sauce?
It's probable that the fruit was picked too early.
I've heard that the Wulstar Sauce Fruit absorbs the minerals in the soil and converts it to salt content.
Most likely, you picked the fruit before it had a chance to absorb enough minerals.
No way...
Uh, if you need salt, I've got some.
T-Toriko-san!
Huh? When'd you get here?
And why're ya here?
More importantly...
Here! Volcanic ash salt from Wul Volcano!
I brought some with me in case I wanted to add some to the BB Corn.
I knew I could count on you, Toriko-san!
E-E-Even Toriko made a beaut'ful appearance?!
I'm super pissed off!
The layers of soil in Wu Jungle are made by Wul Volcano's volcanic ash.
So the compatibility between the Wulstar Sauce Fruit and the volcanic ash salt should be...
Just right!
The tuna is maturing!
Enjoy.
Ooh, this is...
The moment it touched my tongue, it started to disappear like a light snowfall.
What a gentle taste!
Tuna, sweet shrimp, scallops, salmon...
A taste like a bounty of seafood all mixed and combined is flooding my mouth!
And this sauce that promotes the flavor...
Wild vegetables and mushrooms... It's a taste of plentiful mountain vegetables!
This is a wealth of seafood and mountain vegetables...
the ultimate collaboration!
A magnificent sauce to go with exquisite Bubbly Tuna.
Wonderful job, chef.
Thank you very much.
But how did the Bubbly Tuna mature?
Oh yeah!
The growth rate of the plants in Wu Jungle was incred'bly fast!
The aloe of that Aloe Frill-neck Lizard,
they say it causes the skin to renew.
It does w'nders for one's beauty.
The plants in that jungle...
I think the Wulstar Sauce Fruit has the effect of accelerating their growth rate.
It has the power to make raw ingredients ripen more deliciously.
It brings out the flavor of raw ingredients.
Truly the zenith of sauces, wouldn't you agree?
And with Toriko's salt added to it,
it was stopped at just the right maturity.
Truly a magnif'cent seasoning.
President, about the voting for the bill...
If it's for an IGO with a chef that produces such delicious cooking,
I believe in you.
All right!
You did it, Komatsu.
Thank you so much, Toriko-san.
Ah, oh yeah.
Hey, bring it all out!
It's the BB Corn.
I brought some back, just as I promised.
This is BB Corn?!
Your Wulstar Sauce,
if we put it on this BB Corn, I'll bet it'll make it even more delicious!
To celebrate, let's all have some BB Corn popcorn!
Yum! This delicious sauce makes the taste of the corn even more savory!
My hands just keep reaching for it.
Once I speed up, I can't stop!
I can't lose to you youngsters!
Coco-san... I was saved thanks to the fortune you told me.
Thank you so much!
I didn't do anything.
Komatsu-kun, it was your will to never give up.
This time I couldn't make a beaut'ful appearance at all!
I'm so upset, I'm just gonna eat!
Yum!
Huh? It's not moving?
It broke because of Sani's reckless landing!
I couldn't catch the scoop I worked so hard for!
The department chief's gonna have a mountain-sized serving of anger!
You really did it, Chef Komatsu.
Thanks to your dish, the bill passed.
Now the world has been saved.
Well then, everyone!
With a unanimous vote, the bill has been approved.
For the ET Rice hand-formed sushi!
The shoyu will not go on the rice, but on the topping!
No objections!
Is that something you need a bill to pass?
The world was saved by something like that?
Delicious!
Komatsu!
Keep rustle up some more sauce!
Okay, Toriko-san!
I think I'll give you a break for today!
So please, just go away! Shoo!
How kind! You truly are great, Zonge-sama!
If I make it out of this alive, I'll go home and help with my parents' tofu-making business!
You're from a family of tofu makers?!

With the poorness of the dedication to our meeting in front of me,
I, at least feel some promise in the state of your thick nerve rolls.
Forget the failure to capture the Jewel Meat.
There are bigger fish for you to fry.
Understand?
God will soon appear in Gourmet World.
And with God,
the Boss will be able to have all of the ingredients in the world under his thumb.
Obtain God at any cost!
I'm your newscaster, Tina.
The scoop of the summit's dinner party was unfortunately not recorded on film,
but somehow I was successful in brining back a little bit of the sauce!
Huh? This isn't the sauce.
That's the Wulstar Sauce!
Ah, no!
There's something incredible about this!
Leave me some, too, okay?
Now then, on to our next item of news.
This is the place you think of when you think of a popular spot in the Gourmet Age.
Toriko will guide you through the newest Gourmet Entertainment!
The Food Amusement Park!
The Full Stomach Capital Gourmet Town!
Next week with be a mountain-sized portion of fun, too!
