Zebura: Yeah, I heard you loud and clear, kid~~~
So you're against traveling with me, eh?
Side: The Demon's Hell Ears!!
Middle: "Toriko"
Komatsu: I... I-I'm... I'm very sorry!!
I... I...
I didn't know anything about you Zebura-san so... I so... sort of got...
Zebura: Mhm? You got... what?
Komatsu: I got caught up in the moment and said something cocky!
SFX: BIKI BARI
Heart: DOKUN
DOKUN
DOKUN
DOKUN
Zebura: His pulse...
His breathing...
He's not lying...
That means...

Page 2:
Zebura: You're saying that right in front of me...
you flat flat out...
got cocky...!?
Komatsu: HIiIii
SFX: UAAAAAAA BARIBARI
Zebura: It's been a long time.
Since I've met such a straight shooter...
This guy...
He wasn't lying back then, either.
Komatsu: I can't see anything to say that he's reformed, and for us traveling with him...
I can't say I agree with it...!!
And honestly, even releasing him...
Zebura: He probably even knew that I could hear him...
This truly is Toriko's partner...
He's got some guts...
Komatsu: I... I really... am... sorry...
Zebura: Listen up, kid.
There's one act of cockiness in this world that I hate more than any other...
and that's lying.
When people say things behind other peoples backs, but when they're in front of the guy's face they're disingenuous kiss asses...
and get swollen heads, thinking that by doing that then they won't get found out...

Page 3:
Zebura: I hate those kinda cocky guys most of all...!!
I wanna squash every last one of 'em between my fingers until they cease to exist.
Komatsu: I... I was...
absolutely not...
lying or anything...
!
Zebura: GAKKAKKAKKA That's what I'm saying!!
You actually looked me in the eyes and said "I got cocky"...!?
It's been forever since I've seen someone as straightforward as that!!
You're too honest, in fact!
Fuss around and lie a little, dammit......
(In bubble): You could do things like that, too.
Komatsu: EEEEEEEEEH? WHY!?
SFX: GIRORI (glare)
Komatsu: Well... I'll forget this little act of vehement shamelessness, but...
I have a condition.
Komatsu: Eh... Condition?
Zebura: I'm in a position to take Toriko's request right now, but...
the "reward" isn't decided yet... just keep that in mind. ["reward" in bold.]
Komatsu: Eh?
Toriko: Heeey, they've got the camels all readyyy!
We're heading out, hurry up you two!!

Title: Gourmet 130 Sand World!!
Author: Shimabukuro Mitsutoshi
Komatsu: A... Amazing!!
Toriko-san, these camels...
Toriko: Yeah, they're *"Water Storage Camels".
TL Note: Water Storage Camels = Chosui Rakuda
Asterisk: *"Water Storage Camel" is the Tokyo Metropolitan Area's Penname 魔技-san, "Wine Camel" is the Fukushima Prefecture's 須永祥斗-san's work!
Toriko: They’re giant camels that can store about 2000 liters of water in their humps.
A rare species with faucets on the side of their stomach you can use to drink that water any time.
With the whole Zebura thing going on, the city only had one, and they lent it to us.
(In Bubble): Lucky us.
Komatsu: Zebura-san's is a *Wine Camel", isn't it?
It's a camel with high-class wine in its hump.
Zebura: KAKKAKKA that's cause I'm an adult, unlike you. [The laugh is big.]
I can enjoy a refined journey while drinking wine.
Toriko: Can't you not hold you liquor well!?
Ya get drunk in a minute and go tone-deaf!
Komatsu: B... But... The old lady at the city... Said we didn't need to return the camels...
Even though they're rentals...
I wonder why...
Toriko: Well, that...
was probably because she heard
where we're headed to on our journey...

Page 6:
Granny: W... What...?
To the "Gourmet Pyramid"...!? [Gourmet Pyramid in white.]
Toriko: Yeah.
We're going to look for a certain ingredient.
Granny: Y... You mustn't go!!
Toriko: Hm?
Granny: The Gourmet Pyramid is said to be one of the world's "Seven Gourmet Wonders"... ["Seven Gourmet Wonders" are bold.]
It is a place filled with puzzles that even now, archaeologists all over the world still cannot solve even one!! Any beyond that...
surrounding the Gourmet Pyramid is the vast maze of red sand, "Desert Labyrinth".
Many Bishokuya have set foot there, but not one has returned. For that reason it is also known as the "Bishokuya Graveyard". ["Bishokuya Graveyard" in bold.]
Zebura: Kakkakka
Granny: Zebura-sama...
Zebura: "Bishokuya's Graveyard", huh...? Sounds like one fucking cocky place...!!
How 'bout I make a bunch of leisurely trips back and fourth...?
Never mind that granny, get the camels ready!
Granny: Y...
Yes, sir!
Sign: Rental Camels

Page 7:
Toriko: Even in normal circumstances, during the day...
this Sand Garden's intense desert climate reaches over 60°C...
TL Note: I think that's a lot. Friggin' Celsius.
Toriko: But it's a "Gourmet Desert" filled with many ingredients. Anyhow. The place we're heading toward
is a place with sandstorms and mirages... and many desert beasts, the "Desert Labyrinth". ["Desert Labyrinth" in bold.]
Komatsu: S... So she didn't mean that it was okay to not return the camels...
she was worried we wouldn't be able to make it back at all...
Uuh~~...
SFX: BOOOH...
Komatsu: Looks like it's gonna be another trying journey...
Toriko: Komatsu! Keep up your hydration level!
Komatsu: Eh?
Toriko: Deserts have an extremely low level of humidity, so it'll feel like you're not sweating at all, but
you're actually losing a lot of moisture.
SFX: JIRI JIRI
Toriko: Fill your canteen frequently and before you start to feel thirsty.
Komatsu: O... Okay!
SFX: KYU
JYOBOBOBO
SFX: KAH

SFX: ZAZAZAZAZA
Toriko: Hm?
Komatsu: WAA
Toriko: This thing is...
The sharks that swim in the sand,
SFX: ZAZAZAZAZA

SFX: KUCHA KUCHA
Zebura: .........
Somethin's comin'.
SFX: ZAFF
Toriko: *Desert Sharks!!
Asterisk: The Osaka Metropolitan Area's Penname N-R'san's work!!
SFX: ZABOO AA
Komatsu: WAaAAA
Zebura: I forget, can you eat these guys, Toriko?
Toriko: No!
These guys have hard meat so you can't eat them.
So it'd be meaningless to kill them. Can you drive them off, Zebura!?
Zebura: Hmph. What a bore...
Weak Point Voice

SFX: SHUZAZAZA BOFU BOFU
SFX: HYUOOOO
Komatsu: Eh?
Eh?
Toriko: Damn sharks...
You could see that as a big answer.
to Zebura's "strange voice". ["strange voice" in bold.]
Komatsu: ...Strange voice?
What did... Zebura-san say just now>?
I didn't hear a thing...
Toriko: Even though we couldn't hear anything,
the sharks heard it.
A sound they hate...

Page 11:
Komatsu: A sound they...
hate...?
Toriko: Like how we humans hate the sound of nails scraping on a blackboard...
For many animals, there exist sounds (frequencies) that they all hate.
SFX: GIKIKIKIKI
Humans ears can perceive sound waves with frequencies that are within around 200,000~20,000 hertz,
but Zebura can emit "ultrasonic" waves that we humans can't hear. ["ultrasonic" in bold.]
Using that, he can find sounds that his opponent beasts dislike or ones which make them panic.
Komatsu: U... Ultrasonic......
Toriko: By the way...
when he beat the execution beasts and monsters outside at "Honey Prison",
the stress from the powerful sound waves did more damage than the shock from the sound.
Despite how skilled Zebura is, with just a sound "shockwave"
it'd be tough to beat that big a pack of beasts...
Komatsu: A... Amazing...
Toriko: But what's more interesting, with those sharks just now..
...........
Though I said they were inedible... he did well driving them all off without killing any...
Did this guy always have this much self-control...?
Komatsu: ..........

Page 13:
Toriko: !!
It's in sight!!
That's...
The red desert maze....!!
"Desert Labyrinth"!!
SFX: OOOOOO
Toriko: It... It really is RED sand...!!
Toriko: The sand is rich with iron...
and its oxidation from the sun's light makes it look red...
Zebura: That ain't all.
Toriko: !
Zebura: That sand is mixed with the wild beasts' "blood"... ["blood" in bold.]
Anyhow, looks like we're on the real thing now.
Let our fun survival game
start.

A big lot of it.

Zebura: I see...
So this is "Desert Labyrinth", huh...?
Both: !!
SFX: GOOOOO

Page 17:
Toriko: Wh... What the hell is all this...!?
Zebura: A "mirage". ["Mirage" in bold.]
The moment we entered this desert
this mirage thing took the kid off somewhere...
Toriko: Can you look for him, Zebura?
Zebura: With ease.
But this technique grates on my nerves a bit...
In the meantime, Toriko,
Side: The joint struggle begins!!
Zebura: I'll leave these guys to you.
Toriko: Hm...?
SFX: VAA SHUA KARORO SHURURU
Toriko: Yeah...
Looks like it's finally my turn...!!
