True Blue (Toriko Insert X OC)

Chapter Forty

~Ao~

I believed Zebra might actually have a clue to how to do Enbu, he is more experienced in battle then the other three anyway as he was trying to figure that out i decided to brush up on my own skills a bit, gathering a few BB pill bugs i started juggling just two gradually adding to them as time past, by the end of the first day i was juggling 100 of them on my dominate hand.

I had already passed my former max of 64 on one hand, now to get my left hand to juggle 100 pill bugs, the next day the boys got a hint from the king to Enbu and before you knew it they had it practically mastered, with that we headed up the mountain still juggling, i had switched to my left hand hoping to get that juggling 100 pill bugs as well.

I think a max of 200 should be fine, i suppose i could do more but why, what's the point? Anyway Zebra had started juggling too cause Kaka had told him they get tastier the more you juggle them which was true though i didn't think Zebra would want to add that to his full course, well it's his choice.

Anyway some monkeys came to cheer us on and help the boys with Enbu, i was able to dodge any attack just normally i didn't even need to direct my cells to dodge i just did as i was focused on juggling, the next day we reached the peek, Zebra had ditched his coat which i didn't mind one bit.

At the peak the monkey king fell down and played with us expect me, as he got close it seemed like he was going for a game but then backed off, i guess from the way i raised my guard he could tell, with that the king jumped on the ring in the middle of the mountain.

It was there cause of a festival where you could challenge the monkey king, this year the contest was wrestling the boys stepped on the ring i stayed out cause Zebra asked me to and even if i ignored him i had a feeling the king wouldn't fight me, i had a feeling he could tell i was pregnant, animals can tell that sort of stuff.

The four tag teamed on the king and managed to brake his outer shell, i got this utter sense of dread and involuntarily backed off, i shook my head and stood firmly right behind Zebra if this was the end i'd like nothing more then to spend it with Zebra.

The monkey king swung his tail and the boys managed to dodge it just in time, i didn't have to dodge it cause it flew over my head "You guys"i heard Zebra and looked at him, he glanced at me before looking back at the others "If you die today what would be the last thing you'd want to eat?"he asked "Of course PAIR!"the others said.

Sunny covered the dome, i glanced over to the shark head Terry, Kiss and Quinn can handle that besides i have no intention of fighting a nitro in this state, anyway i just waited looking at the dome, the dome bulged for a second, i didn't know what was happening inside but i believed those four were alright.

I sensed the fight had moved elsewhere and called Shiro riding over to the Sandoriko forest, circling over them i saw the four and Yun with Komatsu and Kaka, i had Shiro continue circling as i watched from above and as Toriko revived Komatsu i had the White Dragon land, Shiro didn't disturb the flowers and i ran over to the four but got a reaction from the lingering pollen in the air"Komatsu!"i called with the others as i reached the little man stopping next to Zebra.

"GUYS!!!!"Komatsu yelled crying "Komatsu!"i greeted after Zebra "Ao-zan!!!!"Komatsu cried then Toriko greeted too and the two partners hugged "I really thought you were dead Komatsu"Toriko said "Toriko-zan i did die at one point really"Komatsu said, then he revealed that the charm Mappy had given Toriko which Toriko had given Komatsu in turn had saved him, Komatsu didn't remember much but it was clear he had died.

"Komatsu you're crying too much"Toriko said "What about you Toriko-san and Sunny-san and Coco-san, even Zebra-san and Ao-san you've been sobbing the whole time"he said "Have not!"i said "It's the pollen of these flowers"Zebra said, Komatsu said you could eat the pollen and that would help counter the pollen, so we did "Ao why didn't you say anything?!"Sunny yelled at me "I didn't hear anything from that little thing and i was busy with other stuff to really listen, shut up!"i yelled at him.

After that the mountain was revealed to be a pile of food surrounding a coffin, the coffin of the monkey kings mate, Komatsu healed the shark head which showed up on the foot of the mountain then the monkeys showed up with a cloud and we had a bite of AIR as we travelled on with the cloud.

Terry, Kiss and Quinn had left probably intent to train on their own Shiro had left too, anyway with PAIR we headed to birth cry tree, we reached it in no time "Hold on"i hummed turning to Zebra "The last step of the dance was kissing, so did you kiss that monkey when you got PAIR?"he asked, i looked away "No comment"i said.

We reached the tree and the PAIR was dripping in some bowl, then the real Kaka showed up and told us it would take a ridiculously long time for it to drip down at least Komatsu told us this was the real one not that i didn't believe him just it was weird, anyway Kaka told us how to cook it but that too would take a ridiculously long time.

Komatsu spotted an impossibly small hole though and poked it and PAIR started flooding out, i remembered this from when i made it myself, anyway getting a bowl we all grabbed some PAIR and ate the soup, though i stopped Zebra from drinking it and pointed to the others as they became women, he understood right away and put PAIR away, i knew this would happen cause i've had it before, i also knew if you had it twice it would reverse the effect still best avoid it entirely.

Then a few of the chefs and others from the human world showed up, though i didn't pay much attention to it just laughing at the others as women then some more people showed up and all that with Zombie looking like the kings mate stuff and so forth, then Kaka went to tell us about the blue nitro.
