~Third~

It's been a year and a half since Toriko went to the Gourmet World to rescue Komatsu, having successfully done so the pair was now heading back with all the food they had gathered, the food stores having completely ran out, the IGO had deviced a counter measure, food tablets, though over all they were tasteless however on that day when food started raining from the sky people no longer complained.

~Ao~

I heard about the food rain and rushed over to the IGO headquarters, Shiro had returned himself some time ago so getting there was easy, i crashed into the office and ran over once i saw him "Ah Ao i thought i smelled you"Toriko said before i decked him sending him flying even though he had blocked it at the last second, i grabbed his leg and tossed him around some before finally stopping.

"You selfish little asshole!!!" i yelled "You took your sweet time!!! YOU PIECE OF TRASH!!!!!!"i yelled beating on him some more.

After a while of beating on Toriko and yelling at him some more i finally calmed down "Sorry, i didn't meant to the time just passed by"Toriko said trying to defend himself i punched his face "I don't want to hear any excuses!!!"i yelled getting worked up again but Zebra put his hands on my shoulders and began rubbing them "Just relax Ao, remember Toriko is a stupid idiot of course he'd take his sweet time"he said, i sighed calming down.

~Third~

Toriko laughed a bit rubbing his neck "At any rate it's great to see you all"he said, Ao huffed turning away from him "I'm pissed off so don't talk to me you moron!!!"she yelled at him, Toriko just laughed a bit as everyone else was talking to Komatsu.

Let's take a minute to describe the new Ao shall we? Her appearance hasn't changed much really the only thing that's different is her outfit, she still has a dress that shows off her great figure but it's not as revealing as before, in addition Ao's taken to wearing knee length stockings and high heel boots.

Back to the story, Rin showed up asked Toriko to marry her and he said yes, though author-chan doubts he knew what she meant, anyways everyone was shocked and in a total panic about it, things calmed down though and everyone headed to Biotope 1.

~Ao~

"Didn't the old man leave you any hints Ao?"Toriko asked "Just that it's in a space we won't be able to see"i said, "I see"he muttered before he started tracking the lingering scent of papa towards an invisible bubble that held a house and the final treasure chest inside it, Komatsu grabbed it and went outside before the others followed.

I  lingered behind like Toriko though cause i could tell there was something in that house, ignoring that however we got out and headed back, there other chefs were waiting and we prepared the full course which was a nest for the billion bird.

Placing the egg in the nest now it was just a waiting game, though it would take a few days so the chefs went to their shops to prepare for it while we waited for the egg to hatch.

Anyway a couple of days later Komatsu called that the egg hatched so we fed the hatchling until it grew big enough to lay eggs and scaring it made it lay a bunch of them, they also hatched almost right away, with that we sent word to the chefs and the Gourmet Age was booming again, even though the Billion Bird was just one ingredient there were countless ways to cook it.

Anyway with that we were free to head home and get some real food after such a long time, however it didn't take long for Komatsu to call us again saying the Billion Bird flew and laid a different sort of egg, so he wanted us all to have a taste.

Eating the egg though made everyone more feminine it was a great laugh for me though since that side effect didn't really hit me cause i'm already a woman "Oh this is hilarious especially you Coco, you don't actually look half bad as a girl"i managed to say through my laugh "Oh you think so?"he asked and looked in a mirror "I suppose you're kind of right"he said admiring himself which only made me laugh more.

Toriko added the egg as his drink, in memory of papa, i didn't mind and i'm sure papa didn't mind either, anyway after that Zebra and i headed home on Shiro though i couldn't help letting out a little laugh everytime i looked at him "Will you please stop that?"he asked grumbling "Okay okay, i'll try"i said but i couldn't.

We got home and Zebra took a drink of Mellow Cola reversing the effect, before turning to me with a smirk "You're gonna pay for laughing"he said before coming at me, i dodged and began running but he chased me "I'm sorry! It was just sooo hilarious! You should of seen yourself"i said laughing as i thought back on it.

Zebra caught me and pinned me before tickling me making me laugh even more "Stop! Stop it i already said i'm sorry!"i said and he did eventually stop before kissing me, i smiled kissing him back "It won't be long now"he said, i nodded.

"Mansam will have had the revivers move out and the IGO as well will do their best to revive the Gourmet Age, let's see it should take six months at the earliest"i said, Zebra nodded "Then we'll head to the Gourmet World"he said, i nodded again.

Toriko called us again and we met up with the thing living in the tree which was a nitro, it told us about papa but then "Hold on"it said and turned to me with those eyes pervs get when they see me, it's a look i've seen many times "You're a real female!"it yelled coming at me, i yelped as Zebra lifted me out of the way and glared at the pervy nitro.

"Hands off"he simply said, the nitro backed off scared "Okay"it said in a meek tone, anyway after that the thing took us to the kitchen where a simple apple was on a plate, but it had the scent of one of Acacia's full course items, the boys appetite demons practically jumped out but i had better control over my own but it still made me drool.

Anyway the boys wanted to know more about the gourmet world so they bribed the pervy nitro with sultry clothes "That's all pretty tempting but If i could just touch just a tiny touch you won't even feel it i promise"the nitro said turning to me, i sweatdropped a bit, just how pervy you need to be to be satisfied by a touch "Please Ao!"the others expect Zebra begged me, i turned to Zebra.

"What do you think?"i asked "I'm not that impatient we'll find out in the Gourmet World"he said, everyone got depressed but got over that quickly, the nitro and Komatsu made a feast which would be our last in the human world, though i doubted that, i believed we'd all come back from the Gourmet World.

Anyway in the morning after our feast some sort of watermellon octopus popped out of the ground, we'd be staying there while going around the Gourmet World, anyway then we headed to the harbor where everyone saw us off and with that we headed to the Gourmet World.
