Pedro says ''First of all,I will die fighting you if I have to,but I will never let you,an emperor with personal motives, to become Toriko. Second,when the hell did we fight? We were in the budokai,but we never fought each other.''.
Kyo says ''Both things are correct. I'm here for my personal reasons and no we never fought each other. You won the Budokai and I became jealous. I became jealous that you defeated the person that I couldn't. I trained so hard,but you just had talent.I became jealous that you had what I didn't. Immediately after that I wanted a one on one to win the title from you. However,I wasn't completely sure if I can do that. Naturally,if I lost against the person you fought it would mean that I would lose against you. At the same time, Kisaki was jealous that I defeated him. So on my way we got cornered by a strange woman. She promised us the true power. Our jealousy to turn into strength. I would be able to bypass talent and show that effort is the greatest. In the end it turned out to be a curse. She did gave me and Kisaki a lot of knowledge. She also gave me a lot of power. At the same time I was carrying despair on my shoulders. It was a curse. She promised that if I found you and defeated you I will finally be able to get rid off the curse. Sometimes I didn't even have complete control over my thoughts and actions. I can't quite understand myself and who I am,but right now I'm Kyo. The real Kyo and my goal is to remove the despair curse and in order to do that I must defeat you.''.
