In the end, Toriko was brought onto the ship under Mobius and the others' warm smiles. At the same time, their prey was collected by Sakura. Once everything was settled, Mobius began the return journey. What a haul this had been—utterly satisfying! She had initially planned to conduct experiments right there at sea, but now, she figured it would be better to bring Toriko back. She could ask Takumi for more equipment, and do some proper blood extraction and testing on both Toriko and Komatsu. As for Sakura, she departed mid-route to handle her own business. She had expected a fight, but it turned out Toriko had chickened out. Aboard the ship, Klein was currently explaining the world's situation to Toriko and Komatsu— a thunderous, mind-blowing revelation. "Your world is merging with this one." "That means eventually, the two worlds will become one." "This world was originally just an ordinary place." "Your world, however, has far too many dangerous creatures." "Merging them would cause immense damage to this world." "It could even lead to total destruction." "That's why our current mission is to prevent anything from going wrong." Klein spoke expressionlessly, a large monitor behind her displaying data about both worlds, and various information gathered by Prometheus. Details showed how Gourmet Beasts had already begun wreaking havoc —similar to the calamity they once called Honkai. A massive threat to humanity. The situation now wasn't much different. While those ingredients might seem harmless, if left unchecked, this world's survival rate could drop below ten percent. Cities could be utterly wiped out. Listening to Klein, Toriko and Komatsu both looked dumbfounded. "This has got to be a joke, right?" "Our world is merging with another world?" Toriko felt like he was dreaming. Wasn't this too absurd? "But the truth is right in front of you." Mobius chimed in at that moment. Toriko fell silent. Yes—he couldn't deny what was plainly visible. "My boss sent me here with a task, I'm not sure exactly what it was... something about Gourmet Cells." "Toriko-san, you're from that world." "So could I ask you to cooperate with some research?" "I've already collected the Gourmet Jellyfish." "But I need samples to make comparisons for better research." "And then you showed up—perfect timing." Mobius beamed with joy. Toriko's sudden appearance was like a gift from heaven. Wasn't this the perfect lab rat? Hearing this, Toriko was left speechless. Wait... boss? He was confused. This woman had a boss? And she wanted to research Gourmet Cells? Her boss must really know a lot about his world... Was the research for the sake of humanity here? "Alright." "If it's to help the people of this world, then I'll cooperate." If that was all, he had no reason to refuse. Although the IGO also had Gourmet Cells, they were rare treasures. Given how many people lived in this world—billions, it was worth contributing. He wasn't fond of meaningless killing anyway. And if Mobius just wanted cooperation for research, there was no harm. He couldn't go back to his world for now, so he might as well take it one step at a time. Mobius, seeing his agreement, nodded. That made things easier. If Toriko had refused, she would've had to use powerful anesthetics. Whether he'd survive being drained dry—who knew? Mobius and the others' ship soon returned to the Nakiri estate. It landed directly at the mountain gate near the Nakiri household. Nearby was Tōtsuki Academy. Although it was break season now, students who could go home had already left, and those who couldn't were staying in the dorms. Due to the outbreak of Gourmet Beasts, transportation in many places had broken down. These creatures had begun to seriously disrupt everyday life. Remaining at the academy was currently the safest choice. Some students saw the descending spaceship with wide-eyed curiosity, but no one dared approach. Who knew what kind of big shots were inside? As Mobius disembarked, she noticed clear signs of battle nearby, as well as remnants like stone spears. No doubt—a Gourmet Beast had shown up here. "Gentlemen, please follow me." Klein spoke up, prompting Toriko and Komatsu to follow. She then walked behind Mobius and Velvie, heading toward the main Nakiri residence. As they neared it, Mobius felt a surge of Honkai energy from within. "That guy again... what's he up to this time?" Mobius raised an eyebrow. Her curiosity was piqued. What was Takumi doing now? Releasing such terrifying Honkai energy... Toriko felt it too—an ancient, monstrous aura. He instinctively swallowed. Who or what was inside? Still, they had no choice but to follow. At that moment, Takumi was finishing up his work. He had successfully created the weapon he envisioned. Now, he was completing the final step. Mobius and Velvie returned to find Takumi toying with a strange object. They were both startled. Especially Velvie. "A God Key?" She saw the cube, resembling the Void Archives. Takumi was modifying a God Key? "Miss Velvie, Miss Mobius, Miss Klein!" "You're back!" Seeing Mobius and Klein, Alice's eyes lit up. She quickly ran over. "Perfect timing—we were just about to eat." "You guys—wait..." "Blue hair... Toriko and Komatsu?" Nakiri Alice instantly noticed the new arrivals Mobius had brought. Others in the courtyard turned to look as well. Seeing Toriko, Kato Megumi and the others were stunned. So people from another world were already showing up? "We encountered them, so we brought them along." "What's Takumi doing?" Mobius gave a simple explanation, then immediately asked the question on her mind, her eyes fixed on Takumi's movements. Right now, he was embedding his Authority Core into that cube. What the hell? Was he trying to forge the End God Key?
