105 Gourmet World Part 3 - 1/2

I have many things to ask and clarify after a few hundred years" Said Midora cordially but intimidating at the same time… it didn't seem like he was willing to negotiate

But Broly without bothering too much about Midora's dominant attitude kept looking at the horizon, in the direction in which he had sent Acacia to fly. "I know and I understand you… It's been hundreds of years since you saw him and that you feel that everything related to Froese's death and your attempts to save her could have been orchestrated by Acacia in a subliminal way... which would be a horrible thing, but ...

Don't you think you should first take care of another matter before?"

It was just at that moment when Joah in his Satan transformation had the opportunity to get too close to Midora. So close that he was able to put his legendary knife "Cinderella" in Midora's frown, a few millimeters from his skin ... at a speed in which Midora could only react slightly.

Joah knew he was in an unfavorable situation.

Broly was an unpredictable variable with enough strength and abilities to send Acacia to fly several times and Midora was equal to or more powerful than Broly from his perspective.

However Broly seemed to be only interested in fighting with Acacia, so it was very likely that he wouldn't attack if he didn't provoke him… as for Midora ... he could use the fact that he was possessing Froense's body in his favor to kill him or seal him again appealing to his feelings...

So he decided to end one of the two dangerous variables before Acacia could return.

"You won't be able to Dodge this now… IN FACT…

I've already hit you… MIDORA!" Joah said before using one of his most powerful attacks a millimetre from his head

SATAN HOLE!

SATAN HOLE!

A knife technique capable of creating a cutting energy drill that was able to reach the outer space, drilling and destroying several planets in its path

But…

"I hadn't gotten to tell you yet, Joie… what my full course is" Mirora said with absolute tranquility as he watched Froese's body with melancholy

"WHAT?!" Joie exclaimed in bewilderment when he saw that Midora wasn't hurt in the least. Although Midora didn't move any millimeter and his attack was clearly successful ...

That was impossible… or…

[This is ... GOURMET LUCK?!]

"When I first met forese… that "Meeting"…

That is my full course's "Hors d'ouvre".

That's where it all began" Midora said, remembering when he was an orphan who had only known hunger, fear and hatred. A child not so different from a violent wild animal that survived by stealing food ... that when he was about to die from starvation was saved by Froese

But Joie didn't care at all, she just wanted to kill Midora

PLANET ROTATRY CUTTING!

Joie used a knife skill against Midora capable of completely stripping a planet ... and that attack had covered Midora's body with millions of cuts

[This time I hit him] Joah thought with satisfaction

However, Midora seemed not to feel pain or be affected by that attack, he didn't move a millimeter or change his expression, he simply watched Joah in the same way as before.

Inamovible!

"And Froese's "Charity"

That is my full course's "Soup"…

The flavour of that very first soup I ate… even If I died, I'd never forget it…" Midora said while remembering with nostalgia and happiness the soup that Froese prepared and fed him in bed minutes after she saved him.

SATAN DRIP!

But Joie kept attacking non-stop, this time spitting her stomach juices over Midora's face… some more corrosive stomach juices than those of the King Snake

"My "Seafood dish" is the "wharmth" of my first family" Midora said remembering how Froense introduced him to his adoptive siblings and declaring him as part of the family… a family, for someone who only knew loneliness and contempt

"Those are the Devil's gastric juices…

WHY AREN'T THEY DIGESTING YOU?!" Joah shouted in despair when he saw that nothing he did worked with Midora, he didn't even flinch, whatever he did

"My full course's "Meat dish"…

Is the feeling that even now, still lingers on my forehead…

The feeling of her goodnight "Kiss"" Midora said remembering when Froese gently kissed him on the forehead when he couldn't sleep due to the nightmares he suffered due to the fear of experiencing again his life before meeting Froese

"YOU GODDAMN OEDIPUS MAMA'S BOY!!" Joah shouted with rage and despair as he launched another attack with which he wished to finally kill the adopted son of the body he was possessing

SATAN BOMB!!

BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!

BOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!

BOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!

And for this he used a technique that consisted of triggering a powerful concentrated explosion capable of volatilizing continents ...

But…

"And my full course's "Main dish"…"

Midora still stood undeterred

[WHY? !! HOW ?!] Joah no longer knew what to do, it seemed impossible to kill him

"Is her face, how it always looked over me with such kindness and care…

Froeses's "Smile" is my main dish" Midora said remembering the resplendent smile of the friendliest and most kind person he has ever met.

But Joah didn't give up, he kept attacking and using his greatest ability to create a miracle that could kill him

GOURMENT LUCK!

"And no matter what… wherever, whenever…

She'd always still be on my side… no matter how I was…

I could never forget Froese's "encouragement"...

That is my full course's "Salad"" Midora said with tears in her eyes, remembering all the times that Froese had seen how good and capable he was, when instead he hated himself and felt unworthy to be by his side and everything she had given and did for him.

GOURMET LUCK!! GOURMET LUCK!!! GOURMET LUCK!!!

"She took me… who was such a fool… and straightened me out… guided me… and lead me on forwards, down the right path…

Froeses's "Teachings"… that is my "Dessert"" Midora said remembering with more tears in his eyes the life lessons of Froese, where he showed a selfish child the importance of sharing food and other good moral values.

[GOURMET LUCK!!

GOUR…

GO…

IT… IT CANT'T BE…

I'VE RUN OUT… OF GOURMET LUCK!!!] Joah thought desperately

"Froese…

Was always working the hardest to satisfy people's hunger...Family… or strangers… it didn't matter who…

But for her to give it to someone like me… she taught me the greatest flavour, the greatest love of all.

Before I knew it, my stomach and appetite was instilled within me… and the only thing it longed for… was Froese's cooking…

When Froese died, my appetite was thrown for the wayside an lost…

It was frustrate, with no outlet or release… no way to satisfy itself, feeling only an insatiable hunger with no end in sight…

I became cynical and even now carry that bitterness within me.

All Froese wanted… more than anything else was for there to be pace… for everyone to be smiling, sitting around the dinner table from each other… that was Froese's dream…" Midora said regretting his actions that braided his mother's teachings. Actions driven by the hatred he felt for the world and for himself, which he considered unworthy of Froese and her dream...

The fact that with the death of his brothers and Froese and the betrayal of his father this would be an impossible dream and that he was never or will be satisfied with whatever he eats.

Since I could never eat as a family as before

But…

BOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

Before Joah could completely imitate the appearance, voice, mood and sweet words of Froese to confuse Midora and distract him from an attack of Acacia, that was summoned with his Gourmet Luck to kill Midora by surprise...

But contrary to what Joah expected An injuredAcacia flew in the opposite direction... an Acacia that flew uncontrollably as if it had been hit by a truck ...

"I'm sorry to interrupt this emotional speech, but a certain person wanted to attack you by ignoring me completely ... That is an affront that I cannot tolerate

Continue" Said Broly, who until now had been watching one of the most emotional moments in the manga waiting for Acacia to return to attack Midora… and defend him in case Toriko didn't arrive on time to save the situation.

"IMPOSIBLE!!" Joah shouted when he saw that not even his Gourmet Luck could save him

But Midora didn't even flinch again ... as if he already expected something like that to happen

"AHHHHHHHHHHH !!!" Joie shouted while his body (not really his body) was slowly being disintegrated due to the effect of Minority World and Gourmet Luck

"My full course… will probably never be all brought together again for all eternity…

After all "eating together as a family" just like Froese's "Dream"… that impossibly pure, genuine and true dream…

That is my full course's last dish…

That is my drink" Midora said, finishing explaining what his Full Course is, without being disturbed by what had just happened around him ... regretting that this dream and all his Full Course were things that had been lost forever.

And facing the most absolute despair of seeing his body begin to disintegrate ... Joah pleaded for his life "MI… MIDORA…!!!

WAIT!!!

This body of mine… it's still originally Froese's body!!!

Can you really destroy it like this?!

If you can just find Froeses's soul… then someday your dream could still come true!!!

Your Full Course…

…IS A LOAD OF SHIT" Joie said suddenly, trying to seal Midora once again taking advantage of that emotional blackmail.

But this time…

BGAPGFH !!!!!

It didn't work on him and he attacked again with greater intensity thanks to his Minority World

"It's just like i said at first…

My full course is a souvenir for you to take to the underworld.

If you happen to meet Froese on the other side… tell her for me" Midora said with great tranquillity and inner peace

"MIDORAAAAA!!!

DON'T ERASE ME!!!

This is the body that has all your memories attached to it!!!" Joie shouted as the last attempt to save his life by appealing to Midora's feelings towards Froese

"Don't worry I've gota ll my memories safely in the pit of my stomach…

And even now…

They're still maturing an ripening…

An unchanging savouriness and flavour that even now… continues to fill up and satisfy my body" Midora said moving away from Joah without looking back while Froese's body quickly became nothing
