Someone once said...
That there is a bamboo thicket where tuna, sea bream, squid, salmon
and sashimi of all different colors grow.
A Bamboo Sashimicket.
That there is a female chameleon that gives off the sweet scent of melon
and makes males fall madly in love with her,
a Chalemelon.
The world is in the Gourmet Age.
The age of seeking out yet unknown tastes.
Toriko and the others were inside Gourmet Pyramid, seeking the legendary cola, the Mellow Cola.
With Komatsu's instructions, they managed to successfully extract the cola from the Salamander Sphinx
but the cola was stolen from them by a mysterious creature.
Met with the overwhelming strength of this creature,
Zebra, with energy from anger, and Toriko, with autophagy, faced off against him.
Toriko and Zebra's combination technique exploded,
defeating the mysterious creature.
And they successfully obtained the true Mellow Cola.
I'm putting this Mellow Cola into my Full Course.
What do you think, kid?
You'll form a combo with me now, right?
The Truth Comes to Light!
Komatsu's Will and the Identity of the Mysterious Creatures!
What's he mean, combo?
Before we came here,
Zebra-san gave a condition for helping us capture the Mellow Cola...
This is my last condition.
After we get the Mellow Cola,
form a combo with me.
I-I...
You're way more adapted to me than somebody like Toriko.
I'm sure of it.
We'll be the strongest combo there ever was.
In that case, I have a condition as well.
I'd like you... to tell me your Lifetime Full Course, Zebra-san.
I'd like to decide on whether to form a combo with you after I see the ingredients in your Full Course.
Full Course...
I ain't got one'a those.
You don't?!
Yeah. Never even thought about it.
I was sure every Bishokuya assembled their own Full Course.
Don't go lumping me in with other guys.
I just find tasty things and eat 'em.
I ain't interested in anything else.
That's plenty enough to be a Bishokuya, ain't it?
Toriko-san, he...
Toriko-san's Full Course still isn't completely assembled yet, but...
I'm sure... I'm sure it'll be something entrancing.
I want to cook those ingredients in my own way,
that's why I formed my combo.
To decide whether I form a combo with you or not, Zebra-san,
I'll need to see your Full Course first.
So you're saying it's a match up between Toriko's Full Course and mine?
Yes.
Until then, I...
will be part of a combo with Toriko-san!
Fine then.
I'll assemble one. The ultimate Full Course.
And that's what happened...
Wait a minute you two,
what the hell did you guys decide without asking me?!
So, what about it?
My Full Course?
Ya interested in the Mellow Cola?
Um, I don't think I can decide with just the drink...
What'd you say?!
S-Sorry...
Even Toriko hasn't got his whole thing together, right?
And it's a Full Course full'a good-for-nothing ingredients anyway, right?!
What do you mean good-for-nothing, man?
What's that, asshole?
What? If you actually ate any of it,
you'd be moved by how good it is!
There's no way in hell I would.
You definitely would!
Um, anyhow...
I can't decide whether I form a combo with Zebra-san or not
until after the two of you have completed your Full Courses.
Kid, what the fuck are you pulling?!
Yeah.
How could you make a promise like that and not tell me?
I'm sorry.
But please understand.
The reason I was able to speak that condition, with unwavering confidence,
was because I believe in you, Toriko-san.
That your Full Course won't lose to anyone's.
Komatsu...
You've got a hell of a lot of trust in him.
Okay, got it. I'll let you off the hook this time.
But soon I'm gonna assemble a Full Course that'll overcome you with amazement.
Zebra-san!
We got the cola, so let's hurry back and have a party.
And you're the one responsible for doing the cooking for it!
Okay!
I'll give it all I've got!
A Natural Rubber Backpack, huh?
Yes. It's a Gourmet Case for liquids.
Click.
I've got it!
Toriko-san...
We've gotta bring this guy back, too.
How bout we grill and eat him?
Hey!
This is part of your Full Course, right?
Salamander Sphinx.
Your tears are in Zebra's Full Course.
Thank you.
When your cola matures again, we'll come back.
He got mad!
Run!
Zebra! What're ya doing, walking?!
Ah, look!
Zebra-sama!
Zebra-sama?
Zebra-sama!
You guys are so annoying!
Ya damn...
So you guys made it back?
I'm so glad you're all right.
You actually made it back from Gourmet Pyramid...
Yes.
It was seriously hot, though.
But Zebra-san used the cola to clad me in a cold armor of carbonation.
So I was able to make it through, somehow.
We didn't just come straight back.
We stopped by the Gourmet Deserts and got some natural rice and muscovado.
That's thanks for renting us the camels.
Let's all eat it together.
Along with the legendary cola, the Mellow Cola.
What's that about drinkin' the cola?
Don't get cocky, Toriko!
It's fine. You've got a ton of it, don'cha?!
You brought that book with you?
Yes. I thought I'd try investigating it.
When I found this book, it kind of felt like destiny.
As a chef.
This is a piece of food heritage left behind by an ancient people.
I'm sure that new discoveries and knowledge can be gleaned from this book.
You can discover new things by taking lessons from the past.
This book is sure to lead to new discoveries for the Gourmet Age.
I see.
We've got some free time. Let's fight.
I told you, I don't want to.
And free time?
It's been less than 30 minutes since we left.
What? You pickin' a fight, bastard?
You're the one picking a fight!
It's been 31 minutes, dammit!
How's that any different from 30 minutes?!
What was that? You gettin' cocky?!
Is this is gonna go on for a whole month...?
Thank you, Gourmet Pyramid.
Bye bye, Sand Garden.
He's really here!
Zebra is here!
Hurry, get the customers to a safe place!
Sure has gotten busy in here.
Yeah, because of you.
Welcome! We've been expecting you.
Hey, Komatsu.
Just as promised, to celebrate the capture of the Mellow Cola,
I've prepared the best cooking I could muster!
Hey.
Don't get cocky, kid.
Now let's hurry the hell up and start the party!
Where's the party hall?!
Did I do anything cocky?
He's hiding his embarrassment.
Ever since he ate your cooking at the Honey Prison release celebration,
he's been a fan of yours.
Really?
Keep your goddamn mouth shut!
What're you doing?!
Shut up! I'll beat the shit outta you!
Please stop it, you two.
That's Heavenly King Zebra.
Tina-san!
Komatsu-kun, it's been a while!
Chef Komatsu...
He brought in some incredible guests again.
Well then, to the Mellow Cola!
To the Mellow Cola!
Cheers!
Yum!
Even thought it was standing a while, it hasn't lost a bit of carbonation.
The carbonation feels so good dancing down my throat...
And it's not just my throat, even in my stomach it gives a moderate stimulation that increases my appetite!
I give thanks to all of the ingredients in this world...
Itadakimasu!
Yum!
Keep bringing out food that's ready!
Wh-What appetites!
This is awesome!
We even went out to get food from other hotels, but...
they ate it all?!
Gochisousama.
That was delicious, Komatsu.
Thank you very much.
Did you like it, Zebra-san?
Kid, you didn't serve that thing.
Didn't I say I was gonna grill and eat it?
Um, well... When we tried to cook it...
it didn't seem edible, you see...
We'll take charge of it.
Chief Mansam!
Did you just say handso-
He did not.
Who're you?
I am the Director of the IGO Defense Bureau, Ray.
Two people of the director class?
I'll have to ask you not to record any videos.
And I need everyone except us to exit.
Wait, please give me my camera back!
Why the sudden visit?
Do you know something about that creature?
We're taking charge of it in order to investigate that.
It's in the kitchen, correct?
U-Umm...
Hold it, dammit.
That thing's my prey.
Quit it. You can't beat him.
He's Rapp.
Member of the 0th Biotope.
0th?
I thought the Biotopes only went from 1st to 18th?
They do. In the Human World, that is.
The 0th Biotope is located in Gourmet World.
There's an IGO research lab in Gourmet World?!
So that means he's overcome the Gourmet World environment.
I didn't know the IGO still had people of that level of power.
No, he's not the IGO's man.
The only people that work at the 0th Biotope
are civilians of great power that have been invited by the president himself.
Civilians?
Yes.
It's an elite group of warriors that have different occupations in Human World.
Sharpener Melk and Saiseiya Yosaku are both actually members of the 0th Biotope.
Melk-san and Yosaku-san?
Yosaku?!
You know Yosaku's strength, don't you?
You bastard. You sayin' your Yosaku's comrade?!
Interesting! Gimme your best shot!
Please, stop.
I do not think I will get out unscathed, either.
Ya sure are honest.
Like I thought, the one who's lying is you,
Chief.
When Toriko asked if you knew anything about that creature,
the sound of your blood pressure and heart rate shook a little.
Damn Hell Ears.
Chief, please.
Please tell us.
Komatsu and I saw a similar one in the sky.
What in the world are those things?
They are called Nitro.
Apparently, Bishokushin Acacia discovered and named them.
Nitro?
Their classification is unknown.
As is their means of reproduction.
We don't even know how long they've been living on Earth, but...
fossils resembling them have been discovered in rock layers dating back to hundreds of millions of years.
Hundreds of millions...?
You mean they're from the age of dinosaurs?
Yes. One of their most terrifying qualities of the Nitro is their life force.
Even if their environment deteriorates,
they can dehydrate their bodies and go to sleep.
Entering a state called cryptobiosis,
in which they can sleep for thousands of years.
Then the one in the pyramid was like that?
Most likely.
There are records of Nitro that were in a state of cryptobiosis in rock layers dating back thousands of years
awakening from their sleep when obtaining water.
Then maybe...
because I made the groundwater overflow with my Melk Kitchen Knife...
Because of that...
That's not all.
Having opposed them yourself, you should understand.
What's most terrifying is their ferocity.
Ferocity?
Their quality to engage brutally and fiendishly, regardless of whom opposes them.
Much like nitro glycerin, which explodes with just a small stimulus.
So that's why you call 'em Nitro?
It seemed pretty stable from my point of view.
But that might be because of how dull my prey's been recently.
They are not merely ferocious.
High intelligence is a distinct trait of the Nitro.
Many of their footprints have been discovered.
Then maybe...
Yes. The investigations are still incomplete so we cannot be sure yet,
but Gourmet Pyramid may be the remains of their civilization.
It's true that
they learned how to eat the Ozone Herb
and how to do the Kugi Punch from just seeing it done once.
That high intelligence surprisingly also extends to the cooking of ingredients.
Cooking?
Their overwhelming appetite and their gourmand nature even surpasses that of us humans.
So the cooking instructions written on the murals and in the book was from them, too?
By the way...
there are signs that another one left Gourmet Pyramid.
And it has yet to be located.
There were others?!
I don't get it, Chief.
Two bureau directors and one 0th Biotope member have shown up and are basically keeping their mouths shut.
You're still hiding something, aren't ya?!
The Bishokukai are involved.
The Bishokukai? Why?
Since ancient times, the Nitro have had instincts for finding delicious ingredients.
They...
know the way to obtain God.
G-God?!
The phantasmal ingredient; Bishokushin Acacia's Main dish?!
Chief, maybe that's enough...
What? We're going to need the Four Heavenly Kings' power no matter what happens.
The Bishokukai's Boss, Midora.
He's got control of food from all over the world and he's using that as bait to get close to the Nitro.
That's also the reason why the GT Robo resemble them.
You can be sure that the Bishokukai is already using the Nitro
and progressing with some plan.
And even if they're not, when the Nitro start to get active
it will be proof that the Gourmet Solar Eclipse is near.
And another Gourmet War will occur.
W-War...?
If we get God, we just need to share it with everyone.
If we do that, there won't be a war.
I'll definitely make sure that's what happens!
Special Gourmet News.
I'm your newscaster, Tina.
We've received a total of 3,230 postcards.
The heaping helping of monsters from the applications we received
in the 2nd Gourmet Monster Contest
will finally appear in the next episode of Toriko.
I wonder what kind of delicious things we'll see!
Here's a little preview of what you'll be seeing.
When it's Summer, go to the Gourmet Beach.
And that means a heaping helping of delicious ingredients!
Huh? We can't eat the legendary curry this year?
Surpass Father!
Mid-Summer Gatsugatsu Curry!
Next time will be a heaping helping of fun, too!
