"The Daruma Horse... if I remember correctly, that's a creature from the Gourmet World, right?"
Yuda said, looking at the Daruma Horse, which was even taller than the Gourmet Tower.
"It is indeed a creature from the Eighth Continent. Zebra must have been there. But what's really noteworthy are the other three."
Yuuki said with a smile.
"That's right, the other three are the main point. It's hard to believe that the descendants of the Battle Wolf, Mother Snake, and Emperor Crow species can be found in the Human World. These are all species of the Eight Kings!"
Yuda said that he had also learned a lot today. You know, a being of the Eight Kings' species, though you couldn't say it would definitely become an Eight King-level being, it definitely wouldn't be weak.
Any one of them, after growing up, would be at least a few thousand levels. And most critically, these creatures, even as juveniles, should only appear in the Gourmet World.
But now was different—these creatures had appeared in the Human World.
The Battle Wolf could be explained—after all, it was created by the IGO. But the Mother Snake and the Emperor Crow were different.
It could only be said that the Food Luck of these guys was really strong.
"By the way, Chef Yuuki, my equipment here can see the situation on the front lines. Want to watch together?"
Yuda suddenly asked.
Actually, in a little while, the IGO would be publicly broadcasting the footage. This was all to build up a few heroes.
So, the IGO would definitely open up the broadcast rights—letting the entire Human World see that human weapons were no match. The truly strong were these powerhouses. Only they could protect the Human World.
Yuuki agreed to Yuda's invitation.
After turning on the equipment, the situation on the front lines appeared on the screen.
At this moment, all the various weapons in the four directions were already in position. Battleships, fighter jets, super-giant tanks, and even the laser weapons in space were all aimed at the Four-Beast's offspring.
But these weapons were destined to be useless. The Four-Beast was constantly advancing towards the central area of the Human World. The intimidating aura they unleashed also made many people in the IGO feel shocked.
Only a very small number of people in the IGO could enter the Gourmet World and had some understanding of its situation.
The vast majority of people knew nothing. But now, these few beasts were constantly advancing. Wherever they passed, no matter what it was, it would be destroyed.
The worst hit was the Ice Hell. It was directly shattered. After all, it was just a giant block of ice. Facing a beast of this level, it couldn't resist.
The destruction caused by a high-level being was simply too terrifying, especially in the Human World, where the average capture level was below one hundred.
....
"The Ice Hell, the Cavern Lagoon, the Gourmet Pyramid, Biotope 8, Wul Jungle... all very famous places. But now they've all been destroyed like this."
Looking at the tragic state of these areas on the screen, Yuuki shook his head. The price paid to set the stage for the Four Heavenly Kings this time was truly great.
Though these areas could be restored, it would still take a lot of time.
Hearing his words, Yuda didn't say anything. He knew very well that this incident was to create an opportunity for the Four Heavenly Kings. He also knew that the Human World would definitely pay a heavy price, so he wasn't surprised at this moment.
The destruction that a creature from the Gourmet World could cause in the Human World was terrifying. It was a good thing the Four-Beast's target was humans. The reason it had destroyed these places was simply because they were in its way.
Otherwise, it couldn't be bothered with them. For example, the Regal Mammoth. It had also gone to stop Gaoh, but it was taken down in a single encounter.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Gaoh's size was much smaller than the Regal Mammoth's. A single random attack from it could directly destroy an area with a radius of five kilometers, a diameter of over ten.
Even people who were five kilometers away were directly blown away by the aftershock.
The Regal Mammoth's size was only one kilometer. It was lucky to have survived, and that was only because the Four-Beast had its own target, not it.
....
Soon, the screen caught up to the trail of the Four-Beast, and at this moment, all the human weapons also displayed their full firepower.
However, no matter what weapon it was, hitting the Four-Beast's body didn't leave a single mark. Even the satellite attacks were the same.
A pity that the Four-Beast's strength was not yet enough to strike into space, so they couldn't destroy the laser weapons on the satellites. But for them, it didn't matter whether these weapons existed or not.
The lasers hitting them didn't break through their defenses. As for the unmanned weapons, they were also destroyed by the Four-Beast in a matter of minutes.
"Human weapons are still too fragile in front of the Four-Beast."
Seeing this, Yuda couldn't help but shake his head.
Facing a being of over level one hundred like the Four-Beast, these weapons were completely useless. He knew very well that the IGO wouldn't do such a useless thing—they must have been forced to.
Of course, the IGO was also using this scene as a stepping stone for the Four Heavenly Kings.
When these weapons were fired, Mansam had already had someone make the live broadcast public. Though he couldn't stop these member nations from throwing away their weapons—now was a good time to use them for a comparison.
Now, the entire Human World saw that these weapons were useless.
The powerful weapons in human hands were like paper in front of such a powerful creature.
....
"It's over. We're finished. All the weapons are useless. Humanity is finished."
At this moment, many people who saw this scene let out a wail of despair. Humans had great faith in their weapons. But now, the weapons they had so much faith in were completely useless.
And facing the attack of the Four-Beast, these weapons couldn't provide any defense. They were taken out in one move.
It could be said that these weapons were like moths to a flame. No matter how many of them gathered, they were just throwing themselves away.
"LOOK! WE HAVEN'T FAILED YET! IT'S THE FOUR HEAVENLY KINGS!"
Just as many people were falling into despair, the screen changed.
The Four Heavenly Kings appeared.
Toriko on Terry's back, Kiss flying in mid-air, the Daruma Horse looking down on the Mount Turtle with disdain.
And the very proud Queen, standing tall and looking down on the King Octopus Kong. The appearance of the Four Heavenly Kings undoubtedly brought hope to everyone.
The IGO was very good at playing this game.
Both the timing and the manner of their appearance were perfectly controlled.
....
"So this is Gaoh? I wonder what its capture level is. Terry, I'm counting on you now. Get close to this guy!"
Toriko put on the latest level scanner and, after calling out to Terry, Terry immediately shot out.
At this moment, Terry turned into a streak of white light. While Gaoh sensed his approach and wanted to stop him, its claws couldn't hit him.
In the end, Toriko directly measured its level.
At the same time, the other Four Heavenly Kings also conducted a level test on the Four-Beast.
The final levels they got also startled them. Because the levels of the Four-Beast had truly exceeded their imagination. They had originally thought its level should only be around one hundred.
But the levels they measured were much higher. Gaoh was at 127, the King Octopus Kong at 132, the Invite Death at 140, and the final Mount Turtle was at 150.
None of them were easy to deal with. And though their capture levels were there, their true combat power was a bit stronger.
The scanner only measured their cell level. Their true combat power still depended on the moves they had mastered.
Just like Yuuki. His cell level hadn't reached four digits yet, but he could fight with beings of several thousand levels.
So, while cell level was a reference, you absolutely couldn't blindly believe in it.
....
After testing their levels, the Four Heavenly Kings and the Four-Beast began a fierce battle. Their fighting speed was simply too fast for a normal person's eyes to follow.
The IGO had only provided the live footage—they naturally couldn't slow down the speed. So, in the eyes of a normal person, they could only see that the Four Heavenly Kings and the Four-Beast had almost disappeared.
They couldn't see how they were fighting.
But from the destruction of the surrounding environment, you could tell that the battle was very fierce. Coco's side was a bit better. Because he played with poison, the destruction he caused wasn't so astonishing. But the other few were different.
The battle between Sunny and the King Octopus Kong raised waves that formed a monstrous tsunami. It was a good thing that the moment the tsunami formed, it was shattered again by the aftershock of their battle.
A tsunami that a normal person couldn't resist... but in front of the Four Heavenly Kings, it collapsed before it could even withstand the aftershock.
The battle between Toriko and Gaoh had directly overturned the land within a radius of dozens of kilometers. And the aftershock was still constantly expanding.
Of course, this destruction was nothing compared to Zebra's side.
The Mount Turtle he was facing was the one with the highest capture level among the Four-Beast, and its destructive power was also the strongest.
Zebra's own destructive power was also very astonishing, so their battle had already turned everything around them into ruins, including a sea of magma and fire.
"These guys have gotten arrogant. They're still not using their full strength to deal with the Four-Beast."
Yuuki shook his head.
The fighting style of the world of Toriko was all about one-hit kills.
But at this moment, the Four Heavenly Kings had become arrogant. They felt that though the Four-Beast was strong, it was no match for them, who had mastered Food Honor.
"Indeed. This is a big taboo. It might be fine in the Human World, but in the Gourmet World, this kind of behavior could very well cost them their lives."
Yuda also couldn't help but frown. He also knew the situation in the Gourmet World. The strength of the Four Heavenly Kings was indeed strong, but their mentality was problematic.
Now they were actually getting entangled with the Four-Beast.
If it were him, if he was sure he had the strength to kill the opponent, he would definitely use his strongest power to kill them directly, not drag it out like this.
....
"These guys have had enough... Don't tell me I really have to step in and clean up the mess!"
Mansam was also a bit helpless.
According to his expectations, the Four Heavenly Kings should have killed the Four-Beast's offspring at the first opportunity. Without the offspring, the main body's combat power was destined not to be that strong.
So, when the main body came out, the Four Heavenly Kings, working together, could easily kill it. At that time, they would become the saviors of the Human World.
As for whether anyone would think the Four-Beast was weak? That was completely impossible. After all—all the human weapons before and the various destroyed environments had said it all.
However, now everything was going against expectations.
The Four Heavenly Kings didn't kill the Four-Beast at the first opportunity. The Four-Beast wasn't an idiot.
When it found that it was no match for them, it would choose to run.
....
The battle of the Four Heavenly Kings left the powerhouses speechless, but for the citizens—it was enough. Soon, after the Four Heavenly Kings had confirmed the Four-Beast's strength, they began to get serious.
But they had played for so long that the Four-Beast had also confirmed that they were no match for them.
At this moment, all of them displayed a special skill: burrowing.
Actually, strictly speaking, the Four-Beast was a plant-based life form. Even if it was now a lion-shaped beast, or a sea turtle, its essence wouldn't change. So, after entering the ground, it could still move at high speed.
"What's going on? Gaoh has burrowed into the ground, and it's still moving at high speed!"
Toriko was a bit baffled. He immediately jumped onto Terry and used his sense of smell to track it.
He didn't know what it was going to do, but he knew he had to keep following it.
And Terry also brought Rin and Komatsu with him. The group quickly rushed towards Gourmet Town.
On the other side, Sunny used his sense of touch to track the King Octopus Kong. Zebra opened his echo-location map. And Coco used his vision to track the Invite Death' electromagnetic waves.
The four of them and the Four-Beast all began to rush towards an important location in the Human World. And the final place they converged, the IGO also discovered at the first opportunity: Gourmet Town.
