Just what I'd expect from the Assistant Master of "Shokurin Temple".
Shuu: I don't mind if you come at me in full seriousness, Toriko-san.
If your concerned about my well being, I assure you it's needless worrying.
Toriko: Really...?
Then I'll comply with your request.
Just try your best...

Shuu: ----Hew.
That surprised me...
What powerful techniques...
If I had taken any one of those attacks...
I would've been out in one shot...
Toriko: .........
Hmph... He doesn't let up...
Your nimbleness alone is something impressive, but...
you won't beat me if you just run away...
HAH
HAH
Shuu: ...I am----
SFX: SU...
SFX: OOO
Shuu: attacking.
SFX: HARA

Page 12:
Toriko: -----!!
SFX: HARA HARARA
Toriko: What?!
My undershirt's been cut...!!
When did he----?!
Shuu: This is my technique, "Petty Knife"----
Compared to Toriko-san's Knife, it has almost no power and it's not very sharp...
And with regard to the power of making fatal wounds, it's not a technique one could call suited to being in battle...
Toriko: !
SFX: HARA
Toriko: ?!
SFX: HARA HARARA
Shuu: But in terms of the fabric in clothing or fine hair on the face
it can manage to cut it.

Page 13:
Toriko: Wh... What...?!!
This can't be!! It's like stubble from after just having shaved with a razor...
Among all those violent movements, he got this close without cutting my skin a single millimeter...?
He just shaved off the fine hair?!
Delicate movement this precise are possible----?!
Narration: Toriko could be called a pro at battle----
And although he did not misread his opponent's physical strength...
Toriko: In terms of overall power, it's not even close, I'm way higher.
narration: from an opponent that was clearly inferior to him in fighting strength...
for the first time----
he sensed an unreachable yet-unknown domain...
Toriko: This is "Food Honor"----?!!
Shuu: ----Now,
Shall we continue, Toriko-san
Until I've heard the words "I give up" from your mouth...
Toriko: ..........
Okay then...
I'll show you all I've got.
So I can go past that...!! ["past" in italics]

Shuu: Toriko-san.
I'd like to teach you "Food Honor" no matter what it takes...
Those attacks were so wonderful...
it truly makes me want to...
Toriko: H... How... did you move around so much...
without losing your breath at all...?
......Was that...

Page 15:
Toriko: Also because of "Food Honor"...?
Shuu: Yes.
Physical power... as well as total energy, you are on a level fare above mine, Toriko-san....
But why is it you could not defeat me...?
It is all because you have not mastered "Food Honor"...
Toriko: But I thought that "Food Honor"...
was entirely a "mental" concept... [quote bold]
Shuuu: Of course, it is "mental", but that...
is made use of in "technical" ways. [quote bold]
There are many useless movements in your techniques, Toriko-san. Your form is improper...
Therefore you are expending more energy than necessary...
And because of that, you are not even bringing out the full essential power of the techniques...
But if you were to train in "Food Honor", Toriko-san...
All of your techniques could be used with 1/10th... No, 1/20th the calorie consumption...
and on top of that, your techniques strength, speed, and precision would increase to several times what they are now...!
Toriko: ..........
*gulp*
...You have a point that
my techniques have a bad consumption rate.
I already don't have any power left...

Page 16:
Shuu: Do you admit defeat?
Accepting how things truly are is the first step in training.
Toriko: Yeah... Got it...
I give up... I've lost...
However...
That's just for now.
Once I've learned "Food Honor", we'll fight again.
Shuu: Yes.
I would be happy to...!
Toriko: Anyhow, I'm starving.
And I'm out of strength...
Komatsu: ..........
What is...
this feeling...?
To-Toriko-san...
lost a fight...
Shuu: Komatsu-san!
Komatsu: !
Shuu: We're having a meal!
Preparing that will be the match between you and me. ["preparing" in italics.]
Komatsu: Eh?

Page 17:
Shuu: I told you, didn't I?
Next would be your and my match, Komatsu-san...!
Komatsu: EEEEEEH?
We're really doing thaaat?!
B... But...
Preparation...?
Shuu: It will be a simple match.
We will julienne one head of cabbage...
in a competition of whom can do it faster.
Komatsu: J-julienne...?
Shuu: Yes. You can do it of course, yes?
Komatsu: Y... Yes... Um... if I do say so myself...
I... I'm fast... at julienning...
I can cut up one head of cabbage in maybe less than a minute...

Page 18:
Shuu: That's amazing... Then let's say the loser doesn't get a meal...
is that all right?
Toriko: Don't lose, even if it kills you, Komatsu!!
Komatsu: Okay, Toriko-san!!
SFX: GOAA GARURU
Komatsu: For a cooking match, just leave it to me!!
I'll definitely avenge you, Toriko-san!!
Toriko: O... Ooh...
Sounds reliable!
SFX: SU...
Shuu: Heeh.
Is that a Melk Kitchen Knife?!
This will be enjoyable.
Now then, let's get started...
Ready...
start!!

SFX: SUTATATATATATA SHUBABA
Shuu: I'm finished.
Komatsu: Eh... EEEEEH?!
EEEEH?!!
SFX: DOOON
Th... That was too fast, shuu-san!! That wasn't even 10 seconds?!
(Handwritten): What are you?
Shuu: You have useless movements as well, it seems, Komatsu-san.
You'll need training in Food Honor.
Toriko: GYAAAAAAH
Shuu-chan, please, anything but not getting a meal!
Shuu: Shuu-chan...?
It's okay, I'll prepare some for now.
You'll be eating a bowl full of beans with 5 meter long chopsticks.
Toriko: WHAAAT? Just how delicate can a meal get?! Man, this is irritating!!
Shuu: The training has
already begun.
