"Hold on—what is going on with this guy? WASN'T HIS CHEST JUST BLOWN WIDE OPEN? HOW IS HE COMPLETELY FINE NOW?"
The crowd's attention snapped back to Joie—and a wave of disbelief washed over them. They thought they were seeing things. A mont ago, Joie's chest had been obliterated, his body nearly torn in two.
It should have been a fatal wound, yet here he stood, without a single scratch. They were completely baffled.
In their shock, no one noticed that one of the beads in Joie's hair had shattered—except for Master Jiro. Jiro was a veteran of countless battles spanning centuries—he knew that in a high-stakes fight, every detail mattered.
He saw every subtle change in Joie's condition.
"I need to test this."
Though he had a theory, Jiro knew he had to confirm it. In a flash, he was in front of Joie.
"Big Bang!"
With a single punch, Joie's body was instantly atomized.
The Big Bang was a technique designed to launch an opponent into outer space—assuming their body was durable enough to withstand the initial impact. Otherwise, they ended up just like Joie, completely disintegrated.
But in the next instant, Joie reappeared, slashing at Jiro with his knife. Jiro was prepared. The blade couldn't touch him, instead carving a massive trench in the ground.
The trench abruptly angled upwards, as if broken in the middle. Granny Setsuno had already deployed her Pressure Do—isolating the two combatants. Their attacks were now being redirected diagonally into the sky.
Jiro's Guinness Punch had followed the sa path, and Joie's slash was no different.
....
"Can this guy just keep coming back to life?"
The onlookers watched in bewildered confusion as Joie reappeared yet again. Jiro and Yuuki, however, saw another bead in his hair shatter.
"It's useless. No matter how many tis you kill , I'll just co back. But what about you? I'll wear you down eventually."
Joie was looking for an opening, trying to get under Jiro's skin with his taunts. He hoped to make Jiro hesitate, to stop trying to kill him. Of course, even if Jiro didn't fall for it, his words could still disrupt his focus.
"You can keep telling yourself that. All those beads in your hair must be uncomfortable. Let help you with that!"
Jiro teleported in front of Joie, his hands clamping down on either side of his head.
"Head Shaker!"
Knowing his opponent had multiple lives, Jiro used the sa technique he had employed against the Blue Nitro in the original story. Under the relentless assault, the beads in Joie's hair began to shatter in rapid succession.
Just as the last one was about to burst, Jiro's hands suddenly slipped, sliding off Joie's head.
"Hm?"
Jiro himself was surprised. His hands had definitely slipped, but how was that possible for soone of his caliber?
"So you're using your Food Luck now. Let's see how long it can last!"
Powerhouses who could wield Food Luck were incredibly difficult to kill. Just now, Jiro's hands had slipped because Joie had activated his Food Luck.
Under its influence, Jiro's hands had slid off, saving Joie's life.
"Damn it!"
Joie was both furious and terrified. He never thought his trump card would be discovered.
Now, he could only use his Food Luck to defend against Jiro's attacks. This wasn't a fight against Midora. The only reason Midora hadn't imdiately finished Joie—and had even seed to be losing—was because he was observing his Food Luck.
Joie's Food Luck was Froese's—and it was incredibly powerful. Midora himself didn't have any, but his Appetite Demon could replicate it.
Midora could copy many techniques, but it required careful observation. Replicating sothing as abstract as Food Luck was not easy.
That was why his fight with Joie had been a back-and-forth affair. When Midora had erged from his seal, he had even admitted that he had been observing a bit too closely.
If he had been serious, Joie would have been no match for him. The sa was true now—he was no match for Jiro.
In fact, he was so busy defending against Jiro's onslaught that he couldn't even counterattack.
Joie's Food Luck was rapidly depleting. At this rate, he would be out of lives in a few more hits. After all, actively using Food Luck to block attacks consud it permanently.
Joie couldn't generate his own Food Luck—what he had was all that Froese had left him. Once it was gone, it was gone for good.
In this world, Food Luck tended to attach itself to good people. The mbers of the Gourt Corp had very little of it, which was why they failed one after another in major battles.
Starjun's success was because he had his own Food Luck—and as a child, he had absorbed so of Toriko's nutrients and Food Luck. This had made it very difficult for him to fail—everything had always gone smoothly for him.
....
At this mont, Joie was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He knew very well that once his Food Luck was gone, death was the only thing waiting for him.
And now, he couldn't even escape. Though he had a Camping Monster, it wasn't invincible. He needed an opportunity to use it. Jiro's aura had him completely locked down. If he tried to use the Camping Monster now, he would be the one to die.
He was looking for an opportunity, but it seed it wouldn't be easy to find.
Just as his Food Luck was about to run out, a massive fluctuation ca from the Gourt World. Two incredibly powerful auras, one beginning to rapidly decline, the other skyrocketing.
"So he held back after all. Then next up is Midora's teor Spice!"
Yuuki looked up at the sky. At this mont, countless teors were hurtling towards the ground.
Without a doubt, this was Midora's teor Spice. The appearance of this technique affected the entire Human World, and even the edges of the Gourt World were affected.
And it wasn't just the teor Spice. If it were just that, then after one wave, the Human World could quickly recover.
But the problem was that it was also mixed with Midora's malice. This malice was directed at the entire Human World.
The mont the malice spread, various plants and animals lost their vitality, as if their life energy had been directly blown away.
"Midora's teor Spice, and this malice... is that kid trying to destroy the Human World?"
Jiro looked up sharply. He had also sensed this ominous aura.
"A PERFECT CHANCE!"
Seeing Jiro's attention diverted, Joie seized the opportunity and used his Camping Monster to escape.
This attack from Midora was a bit of an assist. But honestly, it was best to leave a guy like Joie to Midora to deal with. After all, Midora had treated Froese as his own mother.
"He got away? Fine, let's deal with the matter at hand first. Setsu, open the Pressure Do as wide as you can!"
After Jiro spoke, he threw a punch. A terrifying force shot towards the teor Spice. Wherever the force passed, all the teor Spice was pulverized.
On Setsuno's side, hearing Jiro's words, she imdiately expanded her Pressure Do from the Gourt Festival venue outwards.
But to expand the Pressure Do to protect the entire Human World was not so easy.
Though she had done it in the original story, she had also made many preparations and had spent a lot of ti to protect the entire Human World.
Her previous Pressure Do had not covered the entire Human World, but had isolated the two of them from the outside world.
So now, even if she expanded her Pressure Do at the first opportunity, she could only block a part of the teor Spice.
The most crucial point was that even if the teor Spice was blocked, the malice in it could not be isolated. The teor Spice was just a carrier. Even if it didn't land, Midora's malice would still affect the entire Human World.
....
At this mont, the Giraffebird that had been arranged all over the world finally had sothing to do. Throughout the Human World, countless calorie light bullets shot towards the sky, shattering a large amount of teor Spice in mid-air. But there were still many teor Spice falling from the sky.
The cities and natural world of the Human World were attacked. The Giraffebird could only protect the human-inhabited cities, and even then, they were only trying to protect the humans, not the buildings.
Because the buildings were not the key now. As for the beasts in the wild, the powerful ones like the Giraffebird could resist the teor Spice, but the weak ones could not.
A place like the Baron Archipelago was directly covered by countless teor Spice. All life on it was shattered, turning it into a barren land.
Besides the Baron Archipelago, many areas were like this.
Without a combat power of eighty or ninety, you couldn't block these teor Spice at all. Humans could only manage themselves—they couldn't manage other creatures. So, the creatures in the wild could only pray.
And Midora's malice was specifically aid at them.
Under the efforts of the IGO, Jiro, and Setsuno, they had blocked as many teor Spice as possible.
Yuuki didn't participate. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that Jiro and Setsuno were clearing the teor Spice with their location as the center.
His strength couldn't compare, so there was nothing for him to do.
After this wave of teor Spice ended, the entire Human World was almost destroyed. But Yuuki and Nono had stored a lot of ingredients before, and the IGO was the sa.
So, for the next period of ti, it was enough for the people of the Human World to eat. But the IGO also needed to open up a new track, or they wouldn't be able to support the tens of billions of people in the Human World.
....
"That bastard Midora, with this burst of malice, the entire ecosystem of the Human World will be completely destroyed!"
After blocking enough teor Spice, Jiro was gnashing his teeth. The Human World had been in chaos hundreds of years ago. It had taken the efforts of the IGO to beco what it was now.
But now, Midora's one move had directly sent the Human World back to its original state, and even worse than before. After all, before, the ingredients hadn't been extinct. But now, the ecosystem of the Human World had been directly shattered, and the ingredients would not regenerate.
The IGO in the original story had created so pill-like things that could provide the human body with enough nutrients and could also be made into various flavors.
But even if the taste was similar, it was like eating different flavors of candy. The texture was still very different.
The people of this era were not the people of hundreds of years ago. The people of hundreds of years ago had experienced all kinds of famines, so they were used to this environnt.
But the people now, the vast majority lived well. For them to suddenly beco like this, they would naturally find it hard to accept.
The IGO in the later stages even had a ring on the fingers of its law enforcent officers. The purpose of this ring was to ensure that these people did not ss around.
After all, at this ti, human nature could not stand the test. A similar situation had appeared in the original story. Soone, for a carrot, would rather have their finger cut off by the ring than give up the ingredient.
Yuuki was also a bit helpless about this. Honestly, if he had the ability, then he might manage it.
He couldn't restore the vitality of the entire Human World with his own power.
Midora had done it in the original story, and had restored the vitality of the entire Earth, but he had borrowed Zongeh's powerful Food Luck, countless CENTERs, and his own life to save the entire Earth.
Theoretically, with enough Life Energy, it was possible to revive everything in the Human World.
