Chapter 158: Enjoying PAIR with Time Acceleration
The Shark Train returned. The Camping Monster’s senses were quite sharp; it no longer felt the threat of the Blue Nitro and thus could navigate the Gourmet World while avoiding many fatal dangers.
"Kenji, is that Blue Nitro dead?" Atashino asked, looking at the crater-pocked ground. There wasn’t even a single Nitro hair to be found.
"No. Killing it directly would be such a waste. It can still be used for its residual heat," Kenji said with a mysterious smile.
This one attack... will shatter the stars.
The Four Heavenly Kings and the Ape King were dancing a ridiculous, awkward dance together. The tinkling of bells made a crisp sound, and a fragrant aroma filled the entire 100G Mountain range.
As the clumsy dance reached its finale, the Ape King grabbed all four of them in a hug. No matter how much they struggled, they could not resist the Ape King’s strength.
Just as the Ape King was about to kiss Toriko and the others, Zongeh suddenly swapped places with them. Under the dumbfounded gazes of everyone present, the man and the ape kissed.
Noticing Zongeh’s familiar face, the Ape King Bambina burst into tears.
It’s him (her)! It’s her (him)!
When Zongeh saw the Ape King’s face up close, his eyes rolled back into his head, and he fainted on the spot.
The Ape King hugged Zongeh’s unconscious body tightly and began to dance, crying and laughing at the same time.
The four Heavenly Kings were stunned. Having fought the Ape King, they knew how terrifyingly strong it was. You couldn’t fight it head-on at all, or you’d be instantly killed. For Zongeh to be hugged so tightly by the Ape King and not even spit up a drop of blood... it made them question their own reality.
There’s definitely something fishy going on here.
The apes in the audience saw Zongeh’s face and were dumbfounded, their eyes about to pop out of their sockets.
Isn’t that Big Sis (the Ape Queen)?!
Good heavens, Big Sis had actually returned one day!
"That face... no way. Can something this coincidental really happen?"
The spirit of Kaka appeared, looking at Zongeh’s face in astonishment. It was hard to imagine a Nitro making such an expression.
"The Ape King’s former lover... Bambina?"
Hearing this, the corners of everyone’s mouths couldn’t help but twitch. They were no strangers to the oddball Zongeh, but they had never expected this kind of development.
"Mr. Toriko! Quick, catch it!"
At that moment, Komatsu’s voice sounded in his ear. Toriko saw Komatsu in another world and quickly caught the "jewel" that had fallen from the Ape King. It collided with the one Komatsu had caught, and they instantly merged into a brilliant, golden sphere.
"Quick, quick! Teppei! Atashino! We’ve got PAIR! Hurry up and wake Komatsu!"
Toriko rushed towards the Shark Train with PAIR. With a genius Saiseiya and a genius surgeon present, Komatsu’s condition never worsened, and in the end, not even a scar was left.
"Kaka, when were you killed by the Blue Nitro?" Kenji asked.
"It was a while ago. After I left the pyramid and came to the Gourmet World, the Blue Nitro killed me and then disguised itself as me," Kaka said helplessly. They were both Nitro, but the gap between him and a Blue Nitro was simply too great.
"But I never expected that among humans, besides Ichiryu and the others, a powerhouse like you would appear." He had seen the Blue Nitro Atom get captured by Kenji, and it had been completely thrashed the entire time.
"A single Blue Nitro is nothing. The Ape King Bambina could send it flying with a single energy blast," Kenji said calmly.
Kaka didn’t deny it. There was indeed a gap between the Blue Nitro and the Eight Kings.
"Kaka, do you know where the other Blue Nitro are hiding?" Kenji asked.
"I don’t know. The Blue Nitro’s movements seem to have been very restrained these past two years," Kaka said, puzzled.
Kenji showed a grin he couldn’t suppress. Of course, they had to be restrained. Midora was searching the entire world for Joie. If a Blue Nitro dared to pop out, Midora would be overjoyed to have a guide.
"The surgery was a success."
Atashino was cleaning her instruments. Teppei had handled the heart’s regeneration, while she was in charge of the incision. Because of the anesthesia, Komatsu hadn’t felt a thing.
"Phew, that was the first time I’ve ever performed this kind of regeneration on a human heart," Teppei said, wiping his sweat. If it hadn’t succeeded, he didn’t know how he would have faced Toriko and the others. But it had gone surprisingly smoothly. It must have been Food Luck at work. Komatsu’s Food Luck was truly incredible.
"Thank you all. I feel great now," Komatsu said with sincere gratitude. He now had an inexhaustible strength in his body, and his heart was beating more powerfully than ever.
"Although the surgery was a success, your physical constitution hasn’t been strengthened that much. You’ll need to eat more high-energy food in the future," Atashino reminded him.
Komatsu nodded. He would remember.
"Is the dripping speed always this slow?"
The group looked at PAIR, which only dripped a single drop after a long time, and impatient expressions appeared on their faces.
"Is there a hole here?"
Atashino and Komatsu observed it for a moment and found a rather inconspicuous little hole on one side of PAIR. It was impossible to detect with the naked eye; you could only find it by listening to the voice of the ingredient.
Komatsu poked it lightly with his kitchen knife, and an overwhelming flood of soup gushed out. Kenji flashed to the side, taking Atashino with him.
Come to think of it, PAIR is the Ape King’s shed testicle... so the liquid inside the testicle is...
As he thought about it, Kenji’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. He suddenly lost his appetite. He couldn’t keep thinking about it.
Normally, it would take two hours for a single serving to drip out. This was the conclusion the Nitro had come to. It was just that the ability to listen to the voice of an ingredient was too overpowered.
"Time, begin to accelerate!"
Kenji stopped time, quickly drank two mouthfuls of PAIR’s soup, and accelerated his own time. The gender change was practically negligible; he himself didn’t feel a thing.
"Atashino, if you’re going to drink it, drink it now," Kenji said, allowing Atashino to move within the stopped time.
Although Atashino didn’t know why, she still took a sip.
Before she could even taste it, she felt her body change. The bountiful fruits on her chest went completely flat, like an airport runway. She reached a hand down, and her face instantly turned pale. There was an extra thing down there.
"Pfft! This is PAIR’s effect. Just drink another mouthful and you’ll change back. Atashino, you can see the Soul World now, right?"
Kenji looked at the new creatures that had appeared around them. It had to be said, the effect was truly magical.
Atashino quickly took another sip. The clothes on her chest filled out again, and the thing below disappeared. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief. That had scared her. She had really thought she was going to be a man forever. That feeling... was truly hard to describe.
Time began to flow again. Toriko and the others also began to drink, and their bodies all changed in unison.
The unconscious Zongeh also had a mouthful of PAIR poured into his mouth by Bambina. He really did turn into "Bambina." The Ape King was overjoyed and continued to kiss him/her.
Kenji wiped the sweat from his brow. As expected of the Ape Queen, to be able to receive the love of one of the Eight Kings, the Ape King.
