Box: Since Toriko's treatment and Komatsu's cooking began
thee months have already passed---
Title: "Toriko"
Side: With their incredibly difficult revivals, Toriko and Komatsu are......!?
Setsuno: I thought you'd be showing up soon,
Komatsu-kun.
SFX: Uffuffu
Komatsu: Th... This is the soup I made for the stage I'm at.
C... Could you taste it, Setsuno-san...?
Setsuno: Uffuffu, impatient, aren't you...? [Uffuffu big/bold]
You've got huge bags under your eyes, you know.
Please come in.
Komatsu: O... Okay.
Thank you so much, Setsuno-san.

Title: Toriko
Gourmet 97 Miracle Answer!!
Author: Shimabukuro Mitsutoshi
SFX: Bushuuu
Setsuno: Geez...
Youngsters are always wanting quick answers.
Komatsu: S... Sorry...
SFX: Gapa
Three months passed in the blink of an eye......
Somehow I started getting impatient...

Page 3:
Komatsu: Setsuno-san...
Just how many days did it take you to complete such a delicious century soup?
SFX: Chapu
SFX: Su...
Setsuno: Me? Oh, that's right...
I think about 30 years.
Komatsu: Heeeeeh.
Th...
Eh!!!?
Thir...
Thirty years~~~~?!??
Setsuno: Uffuffu
SFX: Zu...
Th...
This is...
Komatsu: Gya~~ It took Setsuno-san 30 years! [Gyaa is big]
Then how many centuries is it gonna take me!?
Setsuno: .........

Page 4:
Komatsu: Thank you so much for making time for me.
Setsuno: Uffuffu, it's fine. Come back if something happens.
...Though, actually,
you may never come again...
Komatsu: Eh?
Setsuno: Komatsu-kun,
Don't forget...
that we cooks are always chosen by the "ingredients:...
Komatsu: ............
そっと耳を澄ますんじゃ
Just listen carefully.
If you can hear the ingredients' voices...
they'll surely guide you down the right path, so...
Komatsu: The ingredients will...
Setsuno: You've already had a compromise from the ingredients...
They must be telling you something...
Komatsu: O...
Okay...
Setsuno: Uffuffu
Hurry and go! I'm sure you can make it.

Page 5:
Setsuno: The real
Century Soup!!
Komatsu: Yes!!
I'll do my best!!
(On Page): Okay, even if it just makes it get finished one year faster!
Setsuno: ............
Fufu... He's already that far into completing it...
I think it took me a full 10 years before I got to that step, and yet...
本当に苦労して現地へ行き
He's taking real pains to get there...
To have tasted the real ingredient at the real place must have have "moved" him in an incredibly profound way...
旅の同行を勧めて
That "impression" is what you could call the real difference between Komatsu an I... Even if it's dangerous, I really would recommend Komatsu to accompany others on journeys...
.............
The impression from going through great pains to obtain ingredients......eh?
Uffuffu... It’s been so long since I’ve tasted that
Box: Setsuno was missing her old days a bit...

Page 6:
Teppei: But...
SFX: Gah gah mogu mogu
Teppei: I've seen master's long revival treatmens before and...
this is the first time I've seen such a quickly recovering patient, Toriko.
SFX: Gah gah
Toriko: No matter how much I eat, my stomach's never full...!!
It feels like all the nutrients are getting sucked into my left arm...!!
SFX: Mogu mogu
Who'd of thought such a miraculous seed existed in the natural world...!!
Teppei: No,
That seed's master's original.
Toriko: Eh?
再生機能を促す食材や生物は自然界にもいくつかありが...
There are lots of ingredients and creatures that stimulate regenerative functions in the natural world, but... But there aren't really any that will regrow an arm...
遺伝子を配合して
So then master combined special genes to create this "Revival Plant". [Revival Plant in bold]
Only master knows how to make it...
Toriko: Hee~~~~~~h... That's awesome...
It's the first time I've felt respect for that old man.
Teppei: To be frank, he's got a lot of failures, too...
But master is thankful to the many the failures.

Page 7:
Teppei: He says the fastest way to finding the secrets of success is through failure...
Huuun... So still he doesn't get rid of all these blood splatters as a testament to the failures, huh...? [Huuun big/bold]
Teppei: No... These are the remains of a ton of failures he's still having now...
And whether this "Revival Seed" heals you or not, in the end, is gonna depend on luck, it seems...
Toriko: So it really is depending on luck!!?
Fuiiiiiiiii...
SFX: Doppu
Toriko: ..........
Say, Teppei, why'd you become Yosaku's disciple?
You've got the blood of the great Bishokuya "Knocking Master Jirou" running through your veins, after all... [Knocking Master Jirou Big/Bold]
You never though of becoming a Bishokuya?
Teppei: .............
.............
Toriko: You're just staying silent!?
Teppei: I respect grandfather... He took me on hunts a lot when I was a child... I had yearned to be a "Bishokuya", too.
But one day I suffered a great shock from the spectacle I saw at a place I went with him.

Page 8:
Dried out soil... Dead ingredients...
But what gave me the shock was not that sight...
It was grandfather's incredibly...
sad expression...
It seems it was a place where he had memories of old comrades...
It was the first time I'd seen my always drunk, always grinning, grandfather make such a despondent face...
That scenery... Those ingredients... He wanted very much to show them to me...
At that moment I thought... I won't hunt ingredients...[Italics on hunt ingredients]
I'll protect them...
Toriko: ............
Teppei: So...
Back then, there were still very few Saiseiyas...
And there were many ingredients dying like that.
Well, my goal for the present...
Is to care for the ingredients that great drunkard grandfather of mine discovered...
Like releasing creatures from paralysis that grandfather used knocking on while he was drunk...

Page 9:
Toriko: Haha, yeah...
There sure are a lot of those... Guys who've...
had...
Knock..ing...
SFX: Boh
Teppei: !
Toriko...?
Yosaku: How's it progressing, Toriko!?
I brought some "Medicine Bees" that I caught!!
TL Note: Medicine Bees = Kusuri Bachi. Not to be confused with the Jump SQ manga with lots of crying of a similar name.
Toriko: GAH
Haa
Teppei: .........!!
Toriko!!
Toriko: U...
Gu...a
Teppei: What is it!?
Yosaku: Aah... That's just about right.
We're already at this step.
Like I thought, he's progressing really quickly.
Teppei, I'll need some help from you, too!!
Teppei: .........

Page 10:
SFX: Doka
Yosaku: Your Nail Chuusha, Teppei! Give him some antibiotics!!
TL Note: Nail Chuusha = Nail Injection
Teppei: Yes, sir.
Toriko: GAHHA
SFX: DOBAN
Toriko: Haaa Haaa
Yosaku: Uuumm...
Toriko, what blood type are you again?
SFX: Mozomozo
Description: Blood Bug (Chi Mushi)
(Insect)
Capture Level 8
SFX: Chii Chii
SFX: Buchi Jobo
Toriko: Wh... What the hell... is happening...
Yosaku: It's a side reaction to the Revival Seed.
Starting now is the time when you need to endure the various symptoms that show up in your body, Toriko.
SFX: Haa Haa WASHA

Page 11:
Yosaku: I picked out a "bee" with medicine to combat that condition.
and now we'll treat you.
Description: Medicine Bee (Kusuri Bachi)
(Insect)
Capture Level 23
Asterisk: The Miyagi Prefecture's 加膵瑞生-san's work!
気合い入れろ
Yosaku: Get psyched, Toriko.
We'll exhaust all our power, but we're counting on your physical strength and willpower.
If you relax just a bit,
you'll die.
SFX: Mori mori
Toriko: GUOHA!!
SFX: Biki
Toriko: D...
Dammit...
Like hell I'll die!
SFX: Haaa haaa
Komatsu is...
waiting for me, making the Century Soup...!!
So there's no way I could do something like die, right!?
GUHAH

Page 12:
SFX: Koko koto
Komatsu: All right.
The "Cartilage Cabbage" brought out a nice taste. [Cartilage Cabbage big/bold]
TL Note: Cartilage Cabbage = Nankotsu Kyabetsu
Komatsu: Now for the "Snow Katsubushi" and the "Only Nuts"
TL Note: Snow Katsubushi (Small pieces of dried, fermented, and smoked bonito) literally = Yuki Katsuobushi
Komatsu: I'll soak them for about 10 minutes...
SFX: Tapu Kachi
Komatsu: Ah
The "Stock Pelican" has soup stock coming from its mouth!
SFX: Daraaa
TL Note: Stock Pelican = Dashi Pelican
Komatsu: Amazing! All this stock is coming out all at once!
Thus guy's savoriness extract is only supposed to come out in small amounts at once...
SFX: Tappu tappu

Page 13:
Komatsu: Could the pelican that arrived have coincidentally been a flock boss...?
Among hundreds of feathers this guy's the one "win" feather!
Phone: Piririri
Komatsu: Eh!?
You got ahold of some "Stew Wine"!?
Yes, I'll be over right away!!
Great!! I'll be able to get some of that phantom wine that almost never shows up on the market!!
With "Stew Wine" the soup's taste will get deeper all at once.
Komatsu: Aah, "Hormone Scallion"!!
TL Note: Hormone Scallion literally = Hormone Negi
Principal: Some just happen to arrive, wanna buy some? It's expensive though.
Komatsu: Of course, please!!
Komatsu: Oh, a new discovery!
This way the "Balk Potatoes"' starch can be extracted quicker?
Now it'll be taken into the stock!!
Setsuno (flashback): Komatsu-kun...
Listen closely... Hear the ingredients' voices...
They'll surely guide you down the right path...
Komatsu: ............
The ingredients'...
voices...

Page 14:
SFX: Toku toku
Komatsu: F...
Finally, I...
I got this far...!!
Transparent soup...!!

Page 15:
Komatsu: Setsuno-san's Century Soup...
I finally... caught up to it...
SFX: Kih
It starts here!!
The real trial!!
The finishing item for the soup,
the last ingredient...
I have to search for it and find it...!!
Box: Since Komatsu started cooking it has been about half a year---
It was a genius level of speed.

Page 16:
Box: As well, Toriko----
Toriko: GUU
A...
U...
SFX: Gaku gaku
Teppei: Master!! This condition...
Yosaku: Dammit... There aren't enough Medicine Bees.
To think that the reactions would show up one after another at this speed...
The regeneration speed is too incredible.
Toriko's body can't keep up.
With this much damage...
He'll be killed by his own Gourmet Cells...!!
Sani: Sorry to keep you waitin'!
My bad! I took a hell of a long time.
We good with this much? Of the Medicine Bees?
SFX: BUUUUUUN

Page 17:
Teppei: Sani!!
Yosaku: AAAALL RIGHT, you made it!!
Hang on tight, Toriko!!
Just a little more!!
Komatsu: It's no good...
What's the final item...?
I can't even make an educated guess...

Page 18:
Wall Penguin: YUN
Yun
Komatsu: Haha...
Sorry... I've been keeping you waiting all the time...
It's still not done...
The soup...
I got to a pretty good point though...
You wanna try some?
Penguin: YUUN!
Yun
Yun
Yun!
SFX: Daraaaa
Komatsu: AHAHA
I see.
Even though it's not done,
Have a taste.
Penguin: YUUN!

Bottom: Toriko

Next issue, the soup is finally complete!?
Meanwhile, what's happening with Toriko's arm...!?
