Title: New Year's Day at Bar Numonchuga
Master: Woohoo! Happy new year, Toriko!!
I'll seriously for real take my Otoshidama!!
T/N: An otoshidama is a monetary gift given to children on New Years.
Toriko: Yeah, happy new year, bar master!
Why're you rushing to the otoshidama already?
Master: I've absolutely only got one deciliter of booze left!!
Tori: For real? Absolutely?
Okay, then here's your otoshidama.
Guy: Thank you, Toriko...
And I mean that in a good way.
Toriko: Yeah, of course.
So hurry up and use it to buy some booze, master!
Master: This year's looking to be another good year, Toriko.
Tori: Hurry it up, master!

Page 4:
Narr: Area 8, 'Horse King Hill'---
Acacia's demon that landed there
made its body expand to be larger and larger
in order to fight the Horse King
which had a completely reverse effect.
SFX: MUKU MUKU
Narr: With its "target" being larger prey,
the Horse King took its time to take aim.

Page 5:
Narr: Herac Breath!!!
SFX: BOH
Narr: What do you think the air from a single inhalation through its nose that turned the area into a "vacuum",
will do when she releases it all at once?
Right now
the direction he shot it was not straight down,
it thankfully just grazed down its chest...

Page 6:
Narr: Area 7, 'Monkey Restaurant'.
Against a creature that continued to attack despite being broken into small pieces
SFX: BYUH BIBYU
Narr: Monkey King Bambina
danced.
It was an utter dance of joy.
The Monkey King wished it would last forever.

Page 7:
Narr: But with the Monkey King's strikes that were not unlike the impact of meteorites,
the creature slowly lost its base form.
Bambina: DON'T GOOOOOOO!
SFX: UKIIIIN BIKU
Guys: Zonge-dama...
If we want to get away, now's the perfect chance...
Zon: ......
Bambina: UKIII UKIKII
Zonge: Yeah. This is a once-in-a-lifetime cha...
Hm?
SFX: ZUGOGO KAH

Page 8:
Narr: Herac Breath----
Narr: This was the exit of the Horse King's nasal breath...
Guts: DOGYAAAAH
SFX: ZUAH
Bam: -----!
Narr: The Monkey King then realized
'They're still out there!!'
'People that can play with me!!'
SFX: GRN

Page 9:
Narr: Area 5, 'Food Region Forest'---
This forest that spread out on Deer King Sky Deer's horns
is a nest for the strongest beasts in Gourmet World, said to have an average Capture Level of 4,000.
While the creature that landed here
devoured over 100 of the beasts...
for some reason, it completely lost track
of where it was----
Thing: !?
Narr: What in the world was happening?
It hadn't the slightest idea where it was.

Page 10:
Narr: Deer King Sky Deer
calmly stopped its forward march.
The Deer King was finally...
angry----!!
This space was something Sky Deer had created.
While the creature still did not know what was going on
in a few seconds
it is said to have rotted away like hundreds of millions of years had gone by.

Page 11:
Narr: Area 4 'Gourmet Garden'----
A creature devoured a flower bed of sweet nectar.
Asterisk: *'Plumb Star' is Tokyo's 杉森悠生-san's work and 'Tsukinoko' is Yamagata Prefecture's 阿部祐太郎-san's work!!
Narr: But the nectar gradually became tinged with a strong stimulus
and the creature started melting little by little.
This is digestive fluid...
SFX: DOROOOO
Narr: So this isn't a flower bed?
The creature surveyed its surroundings.
Asterisk: *'Relic Gold Fish' is Fukuoka Prefecture's Penname Moriageeru-san's work!!
Narr: *'Plumb Stars' that fly around space.
*'Tsukinoko' that grandly swim around the galaxy.
*'Relic Gold Fish' that float in the spaces between planets.
They are not earthly ingredients.
T/N: Plumb star is a pun on "dried plumbs". "Tsukinoko" is a pun on the mythical snake creature "Tsuchinoko" and the word for "moon".

Page 12:
Narr: As its consciousness was fading, the creature confirmed the fact
that it was in Snake King Mother Snake's stomach.
All those that meet eyes with Snake King Mother Snake are sure to die.
And that is not limited to creatures on the earth.
The Snake King's possesses terrifying digestive fluids.
This was the first experience the creature had of being digested.
While slowly traveling in the Snake King's 220,00 kilometer long body
the creature then got its fill
of the sensation of melting.

Page 13:
Narr: Area 3----
A creature flew to a great height
as to not enter the "Shadow of Death" created by Crow King Emperor Crow. [quote bold]
But that...
was the cause of its defeat...
SFX: JUH
Narr: Because the "Shadow of Death" was high in the sky as well----
The sun is below the Crow King?! ["below" in italics.]
The Crow King spit out a ball of light similar to the sun
making the whole nearby area part of its own shadow.

Page 14:
Crow: Emperor Shadow----
Narr: The creature stopped thinking and even forgot its own objective...
This creature that was originally nothing but "appetite"
lost even that.
After a short period of confusion...
it broke into pieces
without a sound.

Page 15:
Narr: Area 2----
Toriko & Starjun.
SFX: GOGOGOGO
Narr: VS Wolf King Guinness!!
SFX: OOO OOO
Star: It seems there are enormous battles going on all over the world.
The planet itself really could be destroyed.
Toriko: Yeah... But those are all supporting battles.
If "God" is going to appear on this island... [quote white]
SFX: DOGOON ZUUUN

Page 16:
Toriko: Then our battle will be the main dish!!
Ain't that right, Battlewolf?!!
Let's show it a battle
befitting a fight over God.
Star: Toriko.
Tori: It's okay.
I've fought members of the Eight Kings twice now.
They were both crushing defeats,
but now I can fight...!!
Plus I've got you here,
Starjun!
Star: ..........
Toriko...

Page 17:
Toriko: You ate the 'Air' that Brunch brought, right, Star?
Star: !
...Yes.
Toriko: Then you'll be fine!
SFX: ZUZU...
Star: Wait.
That's not it.
Toriko: Hm?
Star: What the Wolf King is looking at right now
is not us.
Toriko: What?
SFX: SNIFF SNIFF

Page 18:
Guys: OAA?!
SFX: BAH
Toriko: What the hell is thaaat?!!
SFX: OOO

Page 19:
Narr: Area 6 'Black Triangle'---
Guys: Let's get going, quick!!
