Toriko 128

Ok, all updated. I just stuck 'page 0" as the first page rather than go through everything.

[Toriko 128 Translation by Kewl0210]
Page 0:
Narration: The impetus was in the town of divination "Gourmet Fortune".
By just one sentence from one fortune teller...
SFX: PIN
Side: An intense earthquake all over the world!!
Guy: Ooo...
What an ill omen this is...
I can see a society in chaos...
on a global scale...
with many lives being lost...
A great earthquake-----?
Or is it a collision of a giant meteorite-----!?
Narration: Before long, the "answer" that flowed from it
was a greater shock to the world than any natural disaster----
Guy: The release of Zebura----!!
And almost at once, there was a response
in every city of the world.

Page 1:
Narration: The effects of those rumors (Zebura's release) was no different from a war or huge dispute or otherwise a natural disaster like an earthquake or tsunami. The geopolitical risk rose to a global scale.
From the fear of never before seen foodstuff damage, stock in gourmet insurance companies were selling across the board at a limit low...
Conversely, construction stock especially in relation food defense such as "Nuclear Shelter Refrigeration" and such were bought, but because of the flood there was a limit high...
Also occurring in all the chaos of the world, speculative buying based on the idea that the number of injured people would increase caused a mass buying of drug manufacturer stock. The trade in the market exploded and a circuit breaker (a temporary halt in trade during a surge) was invoked.
Even in the foodstuff market, prices of ingredients skyrocketed under the speculation of "I wanna get it before it all gets stolen by Zebura!"
IGO hurriedly imposed price regulations and it turned into an uproar that they were trying to calm the market.
All 25 countries of the world declared a "state of emergency".
A certain well known gourmet economist made this speech...
[This is gonna be one of THOSE chapters, isn't it?]

Page 2:
Economist: If the news of Zebura's release is true,
the world net economic loss will be no lower than several quadrillion yen.
Side: A man whom the world leads on!!
Middle insert: ☆The movie release and the start of the TV Anime broadcast are happening consecutively over 2 months!! Jump Comics newest volumes 13 comes on sale in March and 14 on sale in April!!
[Is that because of Zebura, too? They're panicking and coming out with everything at once?]
Economist: That is enough damage
to annihilate 10 developed nations from this world.
Narration: The world----
is meeting with turbulent times...
Someone: Warden!
Warden Love!!
SFX: GOGOGOGOGO
Title: Gourmet 128 Release!!
Toriko
Lower Insert: ☆The attendees to the "Jump Heroes Film Toriko & One Piece" releasing on 3/18 will receive a special favor, a "JHF 3D Comic", limited to 1 million printed! Wait for details!!
Author: Shimabukuro Mitsutoshi

Page 3:
Guard: The case about Zebura has already leaked to the public!
Society is in an uproar!!
Love: Just as I feared...
After all, what can you expect from something that's supposed to be top secret.
A release from here does not end with just an exception being made,
I've had Zebura-chan swallow a considerable condition for this.
Guard: B... By that... could you mean...
You've made the incredibly self-centered Zebura reflect your feelings for him?
Love: No, how vulgar!!
Please stop your dirty jokes!!
Komatsu: Sorry to keep you waitiiiiiing!!
SFX: GARA GARA
Someone: !
Komatsu: Now we've got everything!
Toriko: Oh, finally done, huh!?
SF: GAR GARA
Love: ...Geez. I've never heard of such a thing as having a celebration of a released prisoner inside the prison itself.
I'll be making sure you foot the bill for this meal, Toriko-chan.
Toriko: Make Zebura do it himself.
Well, you can try at least.
But you'll probably get "This is all ya got? What kinda shitty release celebration is this?",
complaints like that.

Page 4:
Love: "Is this all"? You're saying this isn't enough?
Toriko: I dunno...
Komatsu: Uh... Um~~~...
Where our all-important guest... Zebura-san...?
Either of you know?
Toriko: He's going to where the prisoners are.
Komatsu: Eh?
Ah... Is he giving them some sort of fond farewell!?
To the prisoners with all their troubles...!!
Y... Ya know...
he really is a nice person with a strong sense of loyalty, isn't he? That Zebura-san...
Toriko: No.
Komatsu: Heh?
Toriko: He went to kill them, a'course.
Those prisoners who whispered complaints about him..
.Komatsu: Eh?

Page 5:
Toriko: Zebura's got some pretty damn good "Hell Ears"...
TL Note: Hell Ears = Jigoku Mimi
Toriko: And to make matters worse, of the Four Heavenly Kings, he's got the shortest temper and is the quickest to get into a fight.
I don't know a more belligerent living thing than him...
Komatsu: .............
Zebura: Kakkakka
SFX: BIKUH (Surprise)
Zebura: That's cause there's nothing more stimulating in this world than a fight...
Komatsu: GYAaAA He's covered in blooood!!
SFX: NUOO Pota pota
Zebura: It's just some blood that spurted from my victims. Don't get so upset, kid.
Or I'll eat you.
Komatsu: HIIII
Toriko: KORA!
Zebura: !
SFX: GAH
Toriko: You better not lay a hand on my partner, you delinquent!
Zebura: Hmm?

Page 6:
Zebura: Who the fuck's head are you grabbing, bastard?
Toriko: Ah?
Yours.
Man, your hair really grew, didn't it?
Zebura: Hey, hey, don't screw with me, Toriko, you asshole.
Toriko: You're the screwy one, running wild all over a prison.
I came all the way here to get you, man. Calm down a bit.
SFX: GAH
Zebura: If ya don't like it, Toriko,
then how about I let my stress out on you?
SFX: MISHI
Zebura: Whadda ya say... Wanna brawl?
Toriko: ...Aah?
SFX: BIKI... MISHI MISHI
Komtsu: .........
Eh...
Hang on...
Love: I sure am jealous~~~
Two friends so close they even fight each other... [heart]

Page 7:
Love: Chinsei Pheromone----
TL Note: Chinsei Pheromone = Tranquility Pheromone
Love: Come on, let's eat. [heart]
SFX: HOWAAAAA
Toriko: ...Okay.
SFX: TOROOOON
Zebura: Aah?
SFX: GIRA
Love: Ow~~~ Why aren't they working on you, Zebura-chan? [heart]
Zebura: What isn't?
Love: The pheromones.
Zebura: What're those? Can you eat them?
Toriko: Hey, Zebura, we're having your release celebration!
Come on over, hurry up!
Zebura: Hm? Ooh.
Then I guess we'll have the fight later.
Toriko: We ain't fighting!

Page 8:
Love: Got it, Zebura-chan...? The capture of 500 wanted people and the discovery of 100 new types of ingredients!
Those are your conditions for release! There are coming from the President, himself. Without that much, the auditor wouldn't accept it.
Zebura: By the way, Toriko.
Toriko: Hm?
Love: Please listen to me, Zebura-chan!!
Zebura: That "Mellow Cola", [Mellow cola is white]
what the hell is it?
SFX: MOGU MOGU
Toriko: According to the old man, it's the world's best tasting cola.
You like cola, right? There value in trying to get a taste, ain't there?
SFX: JIWAA DARA
Zebura: Hmph, cola, eh...? I ain't some little brat.
Toriko: You're drooling at full force there, buddy.
SFX: DARA DARA
Komatsu: .............
SFX: GOKU...
Komatsu: A... All that food I made... disappear in an instant...
An "appetite" that won't even lose to Toriko-san's... So this is Zebura-san, huh...?
SFX: GARAAAN

Page 9:
Komatsu: But he's really done enough crimes to have THAT MUCH of a death sentence enforced on him...
I can't understand it...
Zebura: Hey, brat!
Komatsu: WAHIH!
Zebura: That cooking we just ate...
Did you really make it?
Komatsu: Ah...
Y... Yes...
It may seem a bit arrogant, but I did cook all of it...
W...
Was it...
to your liking...?
.............
Toriko: Oh yeah, Komatsu!
Make us some food for Zebura's release celebration.
Komatsu: Eeeeh? Me?
At the prison!?
O... Okay...
I guess he's an important comrade of yours after all, Toriko-san.
I'll honestly do it to the best of my ability.
What kind of cooking does Zebura-san like?
Toriko: Ah, that guy'll eat whatever you give him, so don't worry about it.
Komatsu: Eh, please tell me~~ I need to think of a menu!

Page 10:
Komatsu: Well, he said he liked meat.
(In bubble): Toriko-san did.
Komatsu: I'd better think about balancing nutrients for what I make.
Mm... Maybe a bit denser a taste would be better.
And he might enjoy some rare tastes you couldn't eat at a prison..
That Zebura-san...
It'd be nice if he could be happy when he eats it.
Zebura: Brat.
Komatsu: Y... Yes!!?
Zebura: Don't get cocky.
Komatsu: EH!?
A... No... I won't...
Eh...?
Zebura: I...
Hate cocky people more than anyone else!
Just looking at them makes me want to squash them between my fingers.
Until not one's left alive!
Komatsu: Ah... Okay...
Um... I guess...
I'm... uh... sorry...
for sounding cocky...
Zebura: ............
You really are getting cocky, ain'tcha, you bastard~~...
Komatsu: Eh!?
No... I'm not....
I'm not getting cocky at all...

Page 11:
Ohban: Warden, I thought you'd ought to know.
Love: !
What is it, Ohban?
The "Demon of the Forest"...
has appeared...!!
All: !
Komatsu: ?
Love: I see...
This won't end well...
SFX: HUU
Komatsu: D... Demon of the Forest... Isn't that... what Ohban-san mentioned at the entrance...
Wh... What is it... exactly?
Love: Once a year...
A "turtle" that awakens during "Monster Season"!
Komatsu: T... Turtle...?
M... Monster Season, you say...!?

Page 12:
Love: What is called "Death Season Forest", located near here, is a land with a particularly special climate.
Its seasons are different from the normal four "Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall", this place's four seasons are "Beast, Melt, Mist, and Freeze". The "Death Seasons".
Though it's inside the Human World, it's one of the borders that won't even lose to the severity of the Gourmet World.
Komatsu: Beast... Melt...
Mist... Freeze?
Death Seasons...?
Love: First is from September to November, "Season of Mist"----- [Mist Season in bold/big]
A thick mist hangs in the air so think you can't see one meter in front of you. "Mist Season" [Mist Season in White]
Because the mist is a poisonous gas, 1 breath will cause labored breathing, 2 breaths would cause impaired consciousness, and 3 breaths would cause cardiac arrest. The deadly poison can also catch fire.
June to August is the "Season of Melting"---- [Season is big/bold]
Where lava bursts forth from the ground.
"Magma Season" [White]
The temperature above the ground also reaches over 70 degrees and skin can burn merely from the heat in the air.
December to February is the "Season of Freezing"--- Everything is frozen in -200 degree blizzards.
"Freeze Season". [White]
The forest's spike grass also gets scattered. And the fierce snowstorm doesn't stop for 3 months.
And what we're currently in, March to May, is the "Season of Beasts" [Season is bold/big]
Several million ferocious wild beasts awaken.
"Monster Season" [White]
The average capture level of the beasts is level 60. And the strongest among them is the turtle which is called the "Demon of the Forest", also nicknamed the "Manga Tortoise".
[The clock in the middle lists the months with September on top increasing clockwise. The symbols inside are the 4 things mentioned. Mist, Freeze, Beast, and Melt.]
Ohban: It may be a good idea to hold off Zebura's release for until the season ends...
Zebura: That guy...
All: !
Zebura: Don't you get cocky...
SFX: NII (grin)

Page 13:
Beasts: GOAA AAAA GUOOO GYUAA
Komatsu: WAaAA
What's with all these beasts~~!?
Ohban: This is the "Death Season Forest" once we've entered the season.
Even we do not go outside recklessly at this time.
Komatsu: B... But Zebura-san already went out!?
Will he be all right at a dangerous time like this!?
Toriko: Dangerous?
Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you one thing, Komatsu.
Komatsu: Eh?
The crime that Zebura committed...
Zebura: Yeah...

By manipulating his "voice", he has the power to use its vibrations to destroy everything...

What destroyed the execution ground was... Zebura-san's "voice"...?

Page 15:
Toriko: His strength and destructive power
could be called the greatest among the Four Heavenly Kings.
SFX: BEGON
Toriko: The problem is that appetite
and his personality to quickly get into fights.

SFX: OOOOOOOO

Page 16:
SFX: OOOOOO
Toriko: That guy...
when there's a prey he's got his eye on or something that pisses him off...
he devours that "species" until it's completely extinct...
Komatsu: ...Eh.
Ex...
Extinct...?
Toriko: There are in fact 26 species that Zebura has wiped out up until now.
That is Zebura's big crime.
Zebura is even know labeled as a first class dangerous creature.
Among the monsters outside right now
the most dangerous of them is none other than Zebura.
