You have some talents...

Star: In my fight a moment ago...
I was risking my life...
Thanks to Toriko and this chef...
The eye of the monster (cells) inside me opened, it seems...
So if you're going to fight, go ahead...
Come at me...
Do you think...
you can manipulate me...?
Joa: ......
Well, it's true...
Perhaps if this were a one-on-one fight...
But with Setsuno and Jirou, people at the world's strongest class...
I'm at a bit of a disadvantage...
To "wound" you as you are right now seems difficult...
And...

Jirou: Secchan...
Setsu: Yeah...
I can't believe it...
SFX: OOOOO
Setsu: Ichi-chan...
Jirou: The small-fry cat...
beat him, eh...?
T/N: The phrase Jirou uses for "small fry" has the kanji for "three" in it, and the kanji for "tiger" is under the reading for "cat". Those are the two kanji that make up Midora's name.
