[Toriko Episode 65 Translation by Kewl0210]
Someone once said...
That there is a shell like that of an abalone
which if grilled, tastes like a lovely steak with the combined flavors of abalone and Wagyu beef.
Aba loneef.
That there are papayas similar to sweet honey-filled baked sweet potatoes,
Papayeet Potatoes.
The world is in the Gourmet Age.
The age of seeking out yet-unknown tastes.
Toriko and the others have entered Gourmet Pyramid in order to capture the Mellow Cola.
Toriko and Zebra make their way forward while searching for Komatsu, who was swept away by quicksand.
But in the course of doing so, Zebra exhausted the use of his voice.
They met with many wild beasts inside the pyramid.
Toriko and Zebra ingested ingredients,
restoring their stamina as they progressed through the pyramid.
Meanwhile, having been separated from the others,
Komatsu faced off against a powerful wild beast, the Escarjaw.
With the help of his Melk Kitchen Knife, he was able to escape the danger.
Wh-What is this room?
But he was attacked by a mysterious creature that emerged from a coffin.
Komatsu obtained a book that was in that room,
and with some difficulty, managed to escape.
Shocking Showdown!
Salamander Sphinx!
My voice is finally back.
Is Komatsu all right!?
You'd better pray.
This ain't good.
Kid! Don't go that way!
Zebra-san!
He made it disappear...
How's Komatsu?
The kid ain't too far away.
Cancel map!
Toriko.
We're taking a shortcut.
Hey! Hold on a second!
Komatsu!
Toriko-san!
Looks like that tiny heartbeat of yours is still goin', eh?
Kid?
Yes, somehow, Zebra-san.
The Sound Armor I clad him in got destroyed.
He got hit by that strong an attack?
What's going on here...
Even before Toriko and I got here, the sound of his pulse and breathing
were in disarray.
This guy's strong, eh?
This smell...
I see. So you're the one who drowned out my Hoedama.
Were you the one who broke the armor, too?
Uh-oh!
Then you've gotta pay for the repairs.
The cost is your blood and flesh.
Zebra really intends to fight him.
Get away from here, Komatsu!
Now, strike.
( Oto Kabe = Sound Wall )
Zebra!
This guy wasn't affected by that at all.
I can't find anything with Weak Point Voice for him, either.
There's such a guy like this out there...?
There's no doubt about it.
Zebra,
I can smell the scent of cola coming from this guy.
What?
I just remembered some information about the ingredient we're after.
There's no doubt about it.
I can smell the scent of cola coming from this guy.
The scent of cola?
Whadda you mean, Toriko?
Hey, hey. You said how the cola's in the season where it's tastiest?
Are you saying it's maturing inside the pyramid?
Yes.
Huh? Really?
To be precise, it's inside the body of a certain wild beast inside the pyramid.
Inside a beast?
Yes.
The master of Gourmet Pyramid.
It's name is the Salamander Sphinx.
The Mellow Cola is maturing inside its body.
The scent of the cola is pumping out of him.
I'm sure of it. This guy is the master of Gourmet Pyramid,
the Salamander Sphinx
Salamander Sphinx (Mammal Beast) Capture Level 92
The Mellow Cola's inside his body!
Well, then it's obvious on what we've gotta do.
Basically, to get the cola,
we've just gotta beat this guy.
From just swinging his arm a little, he had this much power?
Beating this guy won't be easy.
Man, the outside world really is fun!
Ain't it?
There's no mistake.
This is that wild beast.
Th-This book is amazing.
I can't read the characters, but I can tell what it's describing.
This is...
a recipe book!
So the cola's ripening inside his body, huh?
So that must mean his blood is the Mellow Cola.
It's not working.
It's a pretty old book, but yet it's new.
It's full of how to prepare ingredients I've never seen before.
This has to be the legacy of food the ancient people left behind.
So were those murals...
They were a recipe!
Toriko-san! Zebra-san!
Even though it had power, it didn't have enough speed.
That's never gonna hit!
You've gotta go at the speed of sound.
( Ittou Voice Cutter = One Cut/Blade Voice Cutter )
Wha?
Zebra!
Toriko-san! Zebra-san!
He's strong. This guy really is the master of Gourmet Pyramid.
It's fucking cocky.
Bastard...
Our attacks are barely having any effect.
We're never gonna get any blood out like this.
It's the tears.
It's not its blood, that wild beast's tears are the Mellow Cola.
What?
The tears?
How do ya know that, kid?
It's written in this book.
Book?
Yes. It even shows how to take it out.
I found it inside the pyramid.
It's probably a cooking recipe book written in ancient times.
This book has directions on how to prepare and cook lots of different kinds of special preparation ingredients.
Did you say special preparation ingredients?
That thing is...
More tough meat.
Whadda ya think, Zebra?
Zebra, you!
Don't tell me, that one you ate just now
was tasty?
It was, wasn't it?!
So those prey were special preparation ingredients.
We weren't doing it on purpose,
but by coincidence, we defeated a few in the right way to make them tastier.
Most of the wild beasts inside the pyramid had ways to take them down so that
they would taste better.
Kid!
You sayin' you can read those crazy lookin' symbols?
No, not at all.
But based on the pictures and the length of the sentences, I can get a good idea of what it says.
Really?
Yes.
I've probably read hundreds of cookbooks over the years.
Zebra.
You could say that the fact that we made it here is thanks to Komatsu.
It's no coincidence.
Komatsu lead us to the Mellow Cola.
Komatsu has a talent for being liked by ingredients.
Believe in Komatsu.
No matter how much the ingredients like him, you've gotta capture them or it's pointless.
Right. For that, I need to ask the two of you.
I'll tell you the method for cooking it in order to get the Mellow Cola out.
What a slick bastard.
Kid, you'd better give us good directions.
Cause if you don't, I'll kill you.
R-Right.
Okay, let's do it.
Thank you, Toriko-san. Zebra-san.
I'm not sure if we have the stamina to take on an opponent of this level.
I've got about 2.2 million kilocalories left.
And Zebra's got about 3 million kilocalories.
Both Zebra and I have about 70% of our calories left.
Can we do it?
Let's go!
Let's start cooking!

This is the heaping helping of a talk show, Tinapan.
Today's guest is a person of many mysteries,
the best sharpener the world over, Sharpener Melk-san.
I wonder just what kind of person it'll be?
Melk-san?
What an avant-garde appearance.
A-A letter?
"Dear Tina-sama. This is Melk.
I've given this letter to my kitchen knife deliverer, Pochiko.
I'm busy with work,
and feel it would be difficult to come in person.
So I must decline the appearance."
He's not coming onto the show at all?!
Leave it to you?
Do you mean that you brought a guest to take Melk-san's place?
What a beautiful fair-skinned guest.
This will certainly turn into a big-boned talk.
What with all the calcium.
Wait, I can't do a talk with milk in place of Melk!
Oh, stories about the hardship of maintaining the flavor of wine for many years.
You must have a heaping helping of those, huh?
Hey. This is a cork!
You're as smooth as silk. What's the secret to your beauty?
Hey, this is silk. Actual silk!
Quit growling!
We can't have a TV show with these things!
Hey... Let go of me!
Jerks, I'm still talking here...
Just what I'd expect of Sharpener Melk's messenger.
Even Tina's gotten so sharpened, she's snapped!
Go to the next corner! Next corner!
The result of this fight depends on the commands from the control tower, Komatsu.
Now's the time to show us your skill!
Take command of the ultimate combo!
Cooperative Cooking!
Komatsu Steers Toriko and Zebra!
Next time will be a heaping helping of fun, too!
