- Chapter 146 - The Invitiation to Cooperate with IGO
Explosive Drunken Frenzy Cattle, Drunken Frenzy Cattle Simmered with Red Wine Flower, Ratatouille served with Drunken Frenzy Cattle…
Soon…
Kanda Souji had completed cooking a combination of Drunken Frenzy Cattle dishes. Every single one was cooked using the Drunken Frenzy Cattle. It was considered to be a feast for drunkards.
“Hahaha!”
“How is it, Goblin? The flavors of these Drunken Frenzy Cattle dishes are quite excellent, isn’t it?” Mansam ate the Drunken Frenzy Cattle dishes as he drank mouthfuls of Sake Coconut.
Sake Coconut coupled with Drunken Frenzy Cattle…
This method of eating…
Rather than saying that they were tasting the dishes, it was more like they simply enjoyed the liquor.
The Drunken Frenzy Cattle was originally an ingredient that had alcoholic properties. Even the Sake Coconut had an alcoholic content of 70% before it was diluted.
However…
Almost all of the Bishokuyas in the world of Toriko were natural wine lovers.
It was the same for Zonge as his followers.
Let alone Mansam and Goblin.
Once the alcohol within the dishes had entered Mansam and the others’ bodies, it had instantly turned into calories for their Gourmet Cells.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Mansam and Goblin had specifically controlled their Gourmet Cell’s ability to disintegrate the alcohol…
They might not be drunk even if they drank for several days.
“Hoooo!”
“This is indeed an outstanding dish. No wonder Mansam, you’ve specifically invited me over to this unknown restaurant!” Goblin picked up a piece of the Drunken Frenzy Cattle and continued to speak.
“Wahahaha!”
“What else can you say? Kanda’s cooking is the best in the world. After all, Kanda is the partner of this Zonge-sama!” Zonge smiled and replied.
Hearing Zonge’s words…
Goblin Ramon directly placed the Drunken Frenzy Cattle into his mouth, but didn’t say anything more.
Kanda Souji’s cooking.
To Goblin Ramon, it could only be considered decent.
After all…
Goblin Ramon was active within the Gourmet World. There were just too many ingredients that surpasses the Human World’s ingredients!
Moreover…
As a member of the Biotope 0, Goblin Ramon was similar to Mansam in which he had tasted many of the top chefs’ dishes, which included Setsuno, Chef King Zaus and 1 Millimeter Yuda.
But…
It was just like Zonge had said. Kanda Souji was Zonge’s partner.
To a Combo between a Bishokuya and Chef…
If the Bishokuya wasn’t confident in their partner’s cooking, then they shouldn’t be called a Combo.
……
“Hahaha!”
“Since we’re full now, let’s talk about the official business!” Mansam placed the final bite of the Drunken Frenzy Cattle Simmered in Red Wine Flower into his mouth and said cheerfully.
“???”
“???”
Hearing Mansam’s words, everybody had a confused expression as they looked over at Mansam……
“Hey!”
“What’s that look you have, Goblin? Did you really think that I’ve came here just to eat?” Mansam stared at Goblin Ramon with an unfriendly look.
“Haaah.”
Goblin Ramon’s mouth twitched.
Wasn’t that the case?
“Zonge…Kanda…”
“The two of you had successfully captured a Capture-Level 21, Devil Serpent, during your time in the Dark Cavern, right?” Mansam said as he turned his gaze over to Zonge and the others.
His expression was unexpectedly stern.
“Capturing a Devil Serpent.”
“This is enough to prove your strength. I wonder if you’re interested in cooperating with the IGO and becoming a Bishokuya that helps out with the IGO?” Mansam added.
The IGO was the largest organization within the world of Toriko and the number of countries that had joined it exceeded 360. Moreover, the influence it had over the entire world was enormous!
However…
There were too many responsibilities that needed to be done by the IGO.
From determining the Capture-Level of Gourmet Beasts, Stabilizing the circulation of ingredients within the market, protecting the Biotopes and even managing the Gourmet Prison, Gourmet Police and Gourmet Research Facilities……
As such, there were many affiliated institutions connected to the IGO.
No matter how powerful the IGO was, it was still too much for them once they’ve broken it down to all of these small groups.
In addition…
The primary focus of the IGO was in the Gourmet World. Basically all of the top combat power within the IGO was stationed in the Gourmet World. They would rarely appear in the Human World.
As for the people that would stay in the Human World…
It was mainly people such as Mansam, Melk the First and Warden Love, who all had various responsibilities and could not easily move away from their position.
Aside from that…
It was mainly because the combat power of these individuals were too powerful.
Even though they had sealed their powers, they would still cause great damages to the environment of the Human World……
It was to the extent where they might just cause a species of Gourmet Beast to become extinct!
Therefore, the IGO had cooperated with various special Gourmet organizations as well as Bishokuyas and the Chefs. This included Shokurin Temple, Gourmet Knights and the Gourmet Yakuza……
The Food Honor taught by Chin Chinchin in the Shokurin Temple was also one of the required abilities to enter the Gourmet World.
In the Human World…
Once a Gourmet Beast had invaded another habitat and caused danger to the Gourmet Beasts residing there, the IGO would still rely on the help of the Bishokuyas that they’ve cooperated with.
Of course…
This doesn’t mean that the IGO didn’t have their own combat force in the Human World.
Naturally, it was the Four Heavenly Kings. After all, they were the disciple of the IGO’s President, Ichiryuu, and was brought up by him since they were young……
He was their master and their father!
As such, Toriko and the others would generally not refuse the commissions from the IGO.
However…
Among the Four Heavenly Kings…
Aside from Toriko, the remaining three were problem childrens.
Toriko had once said to the IGO’s Development Bureau Chief, Johannes, that it was useless for them to have expectation for the rest of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Sani had an obsession towards beauty. As for Coco, he was more willing to be a Gourmet Fortune Teller than a Bishokuya.
And for the strongest among the Four Heavenly Kings, Zebra…
There wasn’t much to say about him.
Although he was the strongest in terms of combat power among the Four Heavenly Kings, he was also unruly and had caused 26 species of Gourmet Beast to become extinct.
Currently, he was even imprisoned in the Gourmet Prison.
It was to the extent where countries would stop fighting once Zebra was released from the prison. They would gather up their forces to protect themselves from Zebra and prevent him from entering their country.
With this, there was only one left among the Four Heavenly Kings.
Although Toriko wouldn’t refuse the IGO’s commission, he would only accept the commissions if they were special!
Under these circumstances…
The IGO had taken the initiative to cooperate with various Gourmet Institutes and Bishokuyas.
Originally…
Mansam had thought of inviting Zonge to become one of the Bishokuyas affiliated with the IGO when they were at the Bacchus Island. After all, it was enough to prove his strength since Zonge managed to row a small boat pass the Heavy Drinker Archipelago.
However…
To become a Bishokuya affiliated with the IGO…
Strength was only one of the requirements. Character and personality was another. After all, fighting crimes was also one of the responsibility of the IGO.
As such, the Bishokuyas affiliated with the IGO couldn’t be a lawbreaking Bishokuya.
It was because of this that Mansam was still evaluating whether Zonge and Kanda Souji could become cooperative partners of the IGO.
But once Kanda Souji and the others had returned from Melk the Second…
Mansam had no further worries.
After Melk the Second had created kitchen knives for them, she had also helped them apply for a special license to possess the Melk Kitchen Knife.
At the same time…
The Revitalizing Kitchen Knife and the Dark Techniques was also informed to them.
Because of Melk the Second’s application…
Zonge and Kanda Souji naturally passed the IGO’s evaluation. As such, Mansam had decided to come here with Goblin Ramon so he could talk with them.
“Cooperate?” Hearing these words from Mansam, Zonge revealed a confused expression.
“Mansam.”
“What do you mean by cooperating?” Zonge scratched his head and asked Mansam drunkenly.
“About this.”
“I’ll get straight to the point!” Mansam revealed a strict expression.
“The so-called cooperation…”
“It means that we will issue out special tasks in the name of the IGO to you. This includes repelling Gourmet Beasts, capturing specific ingredients and Gourmet Beast……” Mansam explained.
In the original storyline…
Toriko and Komatsu had headed to the Baron Marsh to capture the 300 year old Galala Gator. They had also headed to Biotope 8 to capture the Rainbow Fruit from the Troll Kong.
These were special commissions that only Bishokuyas that were affiliated with the IGO could receive.
For many of these commissions, the IGO’s reward wasn’t money anymore. Rather, they would use special and rare ingredients instead!
This was why it was considered quite valuable to become a Bishokuya affiliated with the IGO.
Of course…
If it wasn’t for the fact that the Bishokuyas were affiliated with them, the IGO wouldn’t have used the rare ingredients as the reward for their commissions.
“Wahahaha!”
“It seems that I thought too much about it? So that’s all there is to it?” Zonge only understood a bit of the explanation that Mansam had said.
According to Zonge’s own understanding…
Doesn’t this mean that Mansam is prepared to request him for a capture commission?
About this…
This wasn’t an issue to Zonge. Rather, it was a rare piece of good news to him. After all, prior to meeting with Kanda Souji, Zonge didn’t receive much commission request.
“Mansam!”
“No matter what kind of commission request you have, just relax and leave it to this Zonge-sama! I, Zonge-sama, am the strongest Bishokuya in the world!”
“Wahahaha!” Zonge patted his chest and laughed.
“Hahaha!”
“Then, it’s decided!” Mansam also laughed whole-heartily. In regards to Zonge and Kanda Souji’s future, Mansam was looking forward to it.
There wasn’t a need to talk much more about Zonge and his followers.
After all, Mansam had already thought of making them Bishokuyas affiliated with the IGO since they’ve met in the Bacchus Island.
As for Kanda Souji…
The Revitalizing Kitchen Knife and the Dark Technique…
Knowing that Kanda Souji possess both of these things, it was enough to see the potential within him.
Perhaps it wouldn’t be long…
But Kanda Souji and Zonge wouldn’t stay in the Human World forever. They would eventually head off to the Gourmet World.
