Chapter 85 - 85: Gourmet Tour

In order to see how the regeneration worked I cut off a finger this time and with my Ginga Rinne Sharingan (Galaxy Samsara Copy Wheel eye) I saw that at a cellular level from bone marrow cells to skin cells the finger was reattached. I began to laugh at how powerful Gourmet Cells really were. By the end of Toriko the people here actually had the power to destroy the planet but with much effort. The planet and the life on it is fierce by the looks of the Gourmet animals and the people. Before we parted ways, Jirou explained that I should help Toriko and Komatsu as much as I can to get Acacia's Full Course. The good thing about coming at this time is the whole process is going to take a few days so I shouldn't miss much when I go back to fight Zamasu.

I reached Hex Food World, the home of Tengu Brunch. I asked around and was shown where they were. Along the way there I ate some weird but delicious food. I met up with Toriko and company, told them who I was and that I could help in any way I can. It was a given that they knew I wanted Acacia's Full course but I wasn't greedy about it, it was more curiosity and eat Shokugeki o.r.g.a.s.mic-level food.

We moved out and reached the location of AIR. In order to cook and obtain AIR Toriko and I were holding off Heracles, the Horse King of the continent. This was biggest f.u.c.k.i.n.g horse I have ever seen. I didn't need to kill him because like the other kings that reign on the other continents, they serve a purpose. Although Toriko was ready to go all out, Heracles didn't make a move. I saw it and it saw me, all it could do was keep an eye on us and the AIR plant that was almost ready to bear fruit. Toriko looked a little fl.u.s.tered as the Horse king didn't do anything but quickly picked up on the fact that I was there. All Toriko knew was that I was briefly Knocking Master Jirou's disciple for 2 weeks and that was it. I beckoned the Horse king to calm down and asked it if I could read its mind. The beast was powerful and has been for centuries, so it was smart enough to know human language. It let me read its mind and I was able to gauge the strength of it and the other kings.

Apparently this world is stronger than those in One Piece, duh, but not Dragon ball, very few worlds are. A few minutes later the Horse King sensed the AIR fruit was cooked to perfection and that a massive amount of air was bursting out. Heracles needed that air so that it could give birth to a healthy and strong successor. Once we all had AIR we could feel its effects immediately. Any and all wounds or scars I've had were gone. AIR has the capability of improving one's oxygen intakeand allow many to survive for months without needing another breath of air. Because there is a purpose in Komatsu losing his heart I didn't bother saving him when Jirou's Grandson, Teppei, crushed it using the back channel. After the whole ordeal we moved on to the monkey continent, where Acacia's Soup, PAIR, could be obtained.

Once there we met up with many monkies but none dared confront us, except for those who were starving because of the oppression of the monkey masters. To them I was at or above the level of the monkey himself, since I had a tail I was just a hairless monkey. We finally met up the (False) Silver Chef of the Flavor Sages, Kaka. With Kaka's help we learned Enbu, Monkey martial arts. To me it was quite fitting and cool to learn. With this ability one can literally shrug off moves, even gravity but it will make training plain so it was a gray area for me. The others trained up enough to learn the monkey dance required to make the Monkey King Bambina's balls to drop. I let them handle the process. Once the dance was completed, through the back channel Komatsu with Toriko grabbed one nut each and put them together.

Komatsu was revived when he was given a bit of PAIR, gaining a new heart. It was weird changing gender but it was quickly fixed when I drank again. PAIR allows one to look into the spirit world and enter the Back Channel through the food spirit door. After PAIR we went for ANOTHER the fish dish. When we were close to the location, we met with the Gold Chef of the Flavor Sages, Jiji. From there, Jiji separated us by which of us are able to get parts of the full course. Coco and Tylan, the poison chef, were told to get ATOM the drink, Sani and Livebearer are to go for Earth, the dessert, NEWS the meat dish was to be captured by Zebra and Brunch, Komatsu and the rest of the chefs and Gourmet Knights are to stay on Blur Grill for ANOTHER while Aimaru was to get CENTER, the Hors d'Oeuvre. Finally, Toriko, Starjun and I went after GOD the main dish.

After we split we encountered the pack of the Wolf king, Guiness. At first it was just the vice leader of the pack but the moment he sniffed me out he immediately backed away. Guiness came out and did the same. Like the Horse king, Guiness too did nothing. Toriko and Starjun were at a loss for words as they couldn't find a reason why Guiness would not initiate an attack. Finally they figured it out and both looked at me at the same time, I just smiled back.

After a while of waiting, Komatsu and the others showed up to give us the other full course. Other than CENTER, ATOM, EARTH, NEWS and ANOTHER were prepared. ATOM is the drink of the menu and allows one to see the invisible, a nice upgrade to my Ginga Rinne Sharingan. EARTH the dessert dish gives one an incredible rush of energy and pairs in perfect balance with the other meat dish NEWS, which gives one the ability to make their cells' division to exceed the speed of light, allowing for the creation of Back Channels. The Back Channel is an alternate realm between the physical world and the World of Souls, where time and space work differently. However unlike the World of Souls, time still flows in the Back Channel, thus allowing living beings to enter it without repercussions. ANOTHER is the fish dish which gives the ability to taste things which were previously inedible, for example, I could eat dirt or a rock and it would sustain me as food.

The group was finally reunited again. We waited for GOD to appear, when it finally did it was in the form of a gigantic frog. I have no idea if it always comes out as a frog but it was finally here. The frog had scales on its back which made it look weird but the smell it gave off was out of this world. I could barely stop my drool, so much so I unintentionally transformed in my True Super Saiyan form, Super Saiyan 4. While dealing with GOD, Acacia and Joie showed up. I didn't get involved until Toriko and Starjun gave me the go ahead considering that Acacia is their father and Joie, the revived Froese with a different soul, who also happens to be their mother. I told them I will keep GOD at bay until they deal with Acacia and Joie. It was a good thing that GOD at Komatsu because he could cook it internally.

After going through the fights when the Blue Nitro and the eight kings arrived GOD was about ready but we had to wait for Aimaru to return with CENTER. Komatsu and his former chef friends, Ume and Ootake, were cooking GOD, internally and externally. Acacia defeated the Eight Kings after taking a bite out of GOD. Acacia split from his Gourmet Demon, Neo. All I did was keep GOD from rampaging but other than that Toriko could handle Acacia, plus this will help him grow. The Blue Nitro who was in charge of CENTER brought it to Acacia. By eating CENTER Acacia was now able to eat his own Gourmet Demon, which he did. Midora broke free from the Golden Can and came to fight Acacia in his new form. Toriko was able to eat a piece of GOD and separate from his Red Ogre Gourmet Demon, the same as Acacia. Toriko ate CENTER as well making him or the demon able to eat each other. The demon however let himself be eaten by Toriko by jumping into his mouth, making Toriko on the same level as Acacia.

I witnessed the entire battle and damn. The techniques they used literally took chunks off the planet. After Acacia killed off Joie he himself was done in by Toriko. Teppei used Grand Knocking to stop the planet from being destroyed, I used my Ginga Rinne Sharingan to copy the move and thanks to ATOM I could see exactly how and where to hit the planet for the knocking. With the remaining life force he had, Midora restored the planet. Everyone was revived thanks to CENTER but Acacia, Joie and Midora were gone except for Neo. After everything that happened Toriko was able to get married to Rin. The served was his full course, which I happily enjoyed. During that time I asked if I could help Komatsu cook to help with my techniques and recipes. I took a part of Acacia's full course and Toriko's full course to share with my family to help them grow as well. Luckily for me my children were able to eat it with gusto and powered the hell up. I trained them and my wives before I left to the Dragon Ball universe to face off against Zamasu.
