"It's close the Century Soup!" Toriko exclaimed as the group ran towards the sound of the explosion that started off.

"Really?" Kimiko said as she carried Yun in her arms and Empoleon kept a look out.

"I can smell it. It's below the ground in this area." He answered

"You can tell that? I can't even see the aurora." Takimaru said

"I remember the smell from Granny Setsu's shop!" Toriko said and then an explosion occurred behind them.

"Those guys. Are they trying to destroy the Gourmet Show Window as well?!" Kimiko's eyes widened as her Observation activated. "Everybody get down! Something's coming!" She got Volcarona out.

Everybody gasped as they saw a swarm of beetles come towards them that had orange markings and large pincers.

-----
Jongal Stag Beetle (Insect Beast) Capture Level-38
----

"Jongal Stag Beetles!"

Kimiko watched as a beetle started to zigzag around her, that she immediately curled to cover the baby penguin that was in her arms.

"Kimiko!" Toriko yelled as he ran towards Kimiko and covered her with his body. He grunted in pain as the beetle attacked his shoulder.

"Toriko!" Kimiko exclaimed in worry.

"Don't worry, Kimiko. I'm fine." he said.

"Empoleon! Blizzard! Volcarona! Fire Spin!"

The two Pokémon complied as numerous beetles were taken down.

"Guys!" Match exclaimed as he saw his subordinates suffering the same thing as the beetles flew to attack their limbs. He quickly withdrew his sword and slashed at the beetle coming for him only for the beetle to dodge.

But Aurorus came back with a Protect.

"FLYING KNIFE!" Toriko shouted as he launched his attack on an oncoming beetle only for it to dodge and attack him in his abdomen.

"Toriko-san!" Kimiko exclaimed while she kept on trying to cover the penguin in her arms.

Angry, Kimiko had to resort to it.

"BUZZ OFF!" She yelled using her Conqueror's Haki imbued with her lightning aimed at the beetles.

This time the bugs stopped as if they got targeted by a bug zapper, and fell to the ground unmoving.

The men were stunned at what happened as the bugs were also fried.

"W-what was that?!"

"Incredible!"

"Don't lower your guard." Kimiko frowned.

"I can't believe there are bugs here in this freezing land. Is this a species that's adapted to the sub-zero temperatures?" Toriko said. "Or was it brought here by someone else?"

"Yun. Yun. Yun. Yun. Yun." the penguin kept on repeating while crying

"It's going to be okay, little guy." Kimiko said trying to comfort him, "We're alright now"

"I'd really like to bring that little guy safely back to his parents, but in this situation. And when his parents do come, it'll get a lot worse. They're ferocious, and they'll go on a rampage." Toriko said as he watched Kimiko rock the penguin back and forth trying to comfort him. That's when he felt a powerful aura behind him, and immediately turned around to see who it was . Only to see that there was nobody behind him, and then he saw that the rest of the beetles were flying away to a certain location.

"What's going on?" Takimaru said

"Looks like something else is coming" Match said as the group saw three figures flying their way.

"Are they...?" Kimiko said with a frown.

"So you've come, Bishokukai?" Toriko growled as he saw a man with pink hair and polkadotted clothes and wings come closer towards them along with a man wearing a suit and sunglasses and another wearing chains and gauntlets around his arms.
-----------
Before Kimiko knew it, they were fighting against new enemies and she was using her lightning to keep them at bay.

"Hm. So what Starjun said was true..." The pink haired male mused.

'She will be a problem. We can't attack her directly, considering her power...' He thought. 'Those creatures of hers too. They aren't gonna go down easy, considering they destroyed the beetles...'

But in the course of the fight, the baby Wall Penguin's parents arrived in a frenzy.

In their anger they kept on jumping around causing the ice to break beneath the group's feet. Sending them pummeling down into a lower level.

"Owowow..." Kimiko said as she tried to push herself up, that was when she saw that a light was shining on her face. She stood up in awe as she saw what the source of the light was. It was a large tower of ice with various ingredients encased within it ranging from vegetables to different creatures.

"That is..." Kimiko said as she marveled at the figure before her, "We found it! The Gourmet Show Window!"

"It's so beautiful" Takimaru said as the others were marveling at it, "This is the Legendary Gourmet Show Window!"

"Yun! Yun! Yun! Yun! Yun! Yun!" Kimiko looked over to see that the baby Wall Penguin was now safe with his parents who were now calm and happy.

"This means that the Century Soup is below here." Kimiko looked over at Toriko and her eyes widened at the sight of his left arm which was now encased in ice, "Kimiko, go get the soup."

"What?" Kimiko said as she kept on glancing at his arm.

"At a glance, the Gourmet Show Window looks divine, but the ingredients in there are withering." Toriko said making Kimiko take a better look.

Indeed, the vegetables were becoming rotten and the creatures were becoming shriveled. Like they were all used up.

"You're right. I can't see the aurora at all." Kimiko said.

"There's a high possibility that only a small amount of soup is left. Get it before they do."

"But, Toriko!" Kimiko said.

"I'll hold them off here." Toriko said looking at the three bishokukai that fell down with them

"So the soup's below here?" the pink haired man said

"Hurry, Kimiko!" Toriko yelled

"Right!" Kimiko said before quickly running to get the soup with Empoleon and her other Pokémon.

"Bogey, Barry, get rid of her." the pink haired man said to the two other Bishokukai.

"Yes sir!" they said before going after Kimiko.

"Kimiko!" Toriko cursed as he looked to see her running toward an entrance through the ice.

"I can get in through there." Kimiko said as she ran, towards the opening. Before the two Bishokukai could reach her, Match and Takimaru blocked their path.

"Takimaru, Match." Toriko grinned.

"The hell are you!" one of them said

"I've got nothing against you, but unfortunately, we're after the soup as well." Match said

"Takimaru, Match." Kimiko said as she looked behind her.

"Don't get the wrong idea! If you hog all the soup for yourself. I'll just be taking it from you next." Match said

"I wouldn't do anything like that. I'll definitely secure enough soup for everyone! Including the children of Nerg!" Kimiko shouted making Match smile.

"Kimiko!" Toriko yelled making her look at him. He smiled, "I'm counting on you!"

"Got it!" Kimiko said as she left.

"That kid!" one of the Bishokukai said

"It's fine, leave her alone" the pink haired man said

"But."

"We'll slaughter them all anyhow, the order doesn't matter. I'll make sure to send something special to her." he then opened his mouth letting insects fly out.

"I see. You're an insect beast-user, huh?:" Toriko said as he watched the insects

"Cute, aren't they?"

"Let me hear your name." Toriko said

"I'm Tommyrod. Bishokukai Sous Chef." he introduced himself

"It's strange to see one of you not use a GT Robo, did you use them all up on Regal Island?" Toriko said

"There is a GT Robo here!" Tommyrod yelled, "But i wonder, just where might they be right now? Doesn't matter, since I don't need them. Anyways, Toriko. Is it okay if I kill you right now!" Tommyrod smiled as his insects swarmed around him.

While Kimiko was heading for the soup, Tommyrod was about to attack the Wall Penguins because they were annoying him........

Only for the insect to be taken down and frozen.

"What?!"

A screech resounded.

A large avian creature with predominantly sky blue plumage and wings looking to be made of ice. On its forehead is a crest that consists of three, darker blue rhombus-shaped feathers. It has circular red eyes, a short gray beak, and long, thin gray legs. Each foot has three forward-facing digits and one facing backward. On its chest is a mass of white, downy feathers. Its long, streamer-like tail is longer than its body and the same shade of blue as its crest.

It screeched again as it used Haze to blind the Bishokukai.

"What is this?!"

"A fog?!"

In the progress, as the creature protected the Wall Penguins, Takimaru and Match won their fights while Toriko and Tommyrod's fight raged on.

Both had lost an arm in the progress, and when a new arrival came up, Teppei, a Reviver, he done knocking on Tommyrod, and unleashed the Parasite Emperor to destroy them.

However...........

It got frozen before it could move.

It even got Barrygamon and Bogey, as they became frozen statues, along with Tommyrod's still form with a look of fear on his face.

The ones unaffected were of Toriko's party and the Wall Penguins.

The one responsible was standing atop of the ice cliff.

A gray and blue, bipedal creature of indefinable but seemingly draconic basis. It has a blue head and snout and has yellow eyes without pupils, a pair of pointed light bluish horns on its head, and a yellow crest on its skull that is bioluminescent. Three pointed teeth jut out the bottom of either side of its jaws, which are frozen shut by the ice covering its head. Its long, gray neck has lines running around its whole body, legs, arms, and tail. It has two arms, each with its claw, and each arm is joined by its oddly shaped blue wings, which are believed to be used for flying and storing cold air. Each wing has two spikes of ice that are also bioluminescent. The ice covering the wings can break, revealing gray tendril-like appendages on its back. The right side of its body seems to be damaged in some way, as the wing and horn on its head on that side are shorter; the right side of its head also has a spiked edge near its jaw hinge that is absent from its left. Its legs are somewhat slender and have three sharp ice-like claws on each enormous foot. Its tail has three blue conical spikes on its tip, and appears to be some sort of propulsion device or a container of energy; exactly what it is based on is unclear, but it may be a damaged turbine.

"W-what is that?!" Match gasped.

"The new Alpha of Ice Hell I believe." Teppei said. "It defeated the Hellborous which was covered in ice. Looks like it did that to the Bishokukai too." He went to Toriko.

"You'll want to hurry." They heard a booming voice.

It was the ice dragon.

"The kin of Mistress found the soup, but there's only a drop left......I'm afraid the Show Window has expired."

"Mistress?"

"I speak of the kin's grandmother. We once fought by her side. I could tell she's of the Mistress' family." He said. He also nodded at the ice bird who took the fallen Bishokukai.

And a portal emerged from a smooth surface from the ice lake as the bird took them there.

"What is it doing?" Match asked.

"The heathens will be taken to The Renegade One for their punishment. I assure you, it won't be light." The ice dragon moves to leave.

"I leave Mistress' kin in your hands."

He leaves but the bird leads them to Kimiko.

Meanwhile, the miniature GT Robo was about to attack Kimiko but it got destroyed....

By.....

Kimiko couldn't believe it!

"Chien-Pao!" She gasped.

The creature was cautious before Kimiko and her Pokemon bowed to it, and he bowed back.

He then led Kimiko and her Pokemon to where the soup is.

She then heard the familiar chirp of the baby Wall Penguin as he looked happy to see her.

"Hey, I thought you were with your parents."

-----------
In the process, as there was a way to recreate the soup Kimiko had to taste it to get the memory in her mind.

Though seeing Tina and Zonge were a surprise.

-----------
"Check it out! It's a hidden cave, so there!" Zonge said as he pointed to a tunnel that he and his group had come from.

"I feel slight air flowing through it, it's gotta be leading outside." Match said

"That's what I said!" the hairy man yelled

"This must have been a route for transporting ingredients to avoid the storm and creatures. It's amazing that it's still here." Teppei muttered

"Amazing, right. I don't mind if you all feel the need to praise me. All you have to do to repay me, is that you all have to be my servants!" the hairy monkey laughed

"Um, Zonge-samam" the bald man pointed at the group who was already walking down away.

"Aren't we lucky?" Toriko laughed

"It's a relief that we're all going back to safety." Kimiko said as the Wall Penguins came along as the cave was big enough.

"Hey! Every single one of you should be praising my achievement!" the man yelled before running after the group

"What am I doing with my life? Ah, another lost scoop..." Tina sighed before following Them.

They eventually got out, and although the ship left without them, thanks to Teppei slipping it out.

CAW!

Kimiko looked up to see a large black bird descending towards them. Her eyes widened as she saw the familiar figure on the bird's back.

"Everyone, sorry to keep you waiting!" the figure said

"Coco-san!" Kimiko exclaimed as she saw the Bishokuya

"Coco!" Toriko yelled

"Toriko." Coco said as he looked at the missing arm. "It really was a difficult battle, wasn't it?"

"Another one of the Heavenly Kings..." Match said and then saw that there was something behind him.

"Huh, what's that?" Tina asked as the group saw a large floating pink jellyfish heading towards them.

"Is that a Limousine Jellyfish?" Teppei said.

"Really?! It's said to originate in the Gourmet World!" Kimiko exclaimed.

"Hey! I came to pick you guys up!" an elderly voice shouted.

"Granny!"

"Granny Setsu!" Toriko exclaimed.

"You mean the Gourmet Living National Treasure!?" Tina exclaimed

"Yup, it's her alright!" Kimiko said as the jellyfish floated closer to them and then stretched out one of its tentacles for them to walk on.

"You sure came out to a strange place. If it weren't for Coco's fortune telling, I wouldn't have been able to find you. Now hurry up on in. I've got a delicious feast waiting for you!"

"Food!" Toriko exclaimed before running into the limousine jellyfish.

"Wait, Toriko!" Kimiko yelled as she followed him along with Tina

"This is the first time, I've ever seen such bigwigs of proper society." Match said as he followed the rest of the group.

"Man, what a nutty day." Teppei sighed.

The Wall Penguin parents would not be able to tag along, but they needed some treatment as they got scrapes from the battle.

So Kimiko had Gardevoir take them to her Island for recovery.

However the baby Wall Penguin wanted to tag along, so Kimiko promised she would look after him. Empoleon too.

"Amazing" Kimiko said as she poked the wall only for it to spring back, "Is this thing alive?"

"Don't know, I've never seen anything like this before." Toriko said as he walked past her.

"It's a Limousine Jellyfish, don't worry, it's definitely alive." Setsuno said from the second level, "It's warm inside so come on in and rest up."

"Isn't this great Takimaru, we'll get to eat!" Toriko said as he went to the second level

"Toriko-san, you're drooling." Takimaru said as he saw the drool dribbling down Toriko's chin like a waterfall.

"FOOD!" Toriko exclaimed as he headed towards the smell of food.

"Wow!" Kimiko said as everyone gathered around the table filled with food.

"Go ahead," Setsuno said, "Eat up!"

"Idtadakimasu!" everyone said as they clapped their hands together

"Delicious!" Toriko exclaimed as he bit into a slab of meat.

Kimiko smiled and then proceeded to grab an onigiri from the plate, she then looked over to the baby wall penguin who was chirping happily. Kimiko giggled and then handed the onigiri to the penguin who took it and started to nibble on the morsel.

"You like it?" she asked, the penguin nodded and then chirped as Empoleon had one too. After giving the penguin a small smile, Kimiko took an onigiri for herself and took a bite.

"Delicious!" Kimiko exclaimed as she continued to eat her onigiri. She looked over to see that Match wasn't eating, but instead looking at his subordinates.

"Match."

"You're going to kick the bucket before you get the chance to get your buddies back if you don't eat anything!" Toriko said and then Teppei handed him a plate of kebabs, "Eat and get better."

"Thank you." Match said as he took one of the kebabs and started to eat along with the rest of the group.

"Oh right, Kimiko. I'm sure you want this." Setsuno brought out something.

It was Kimiko's Strawhat.

"Ah! Thanks!" Kimiko said as she put the hat back on her head. 'That's better.' She smiled her family's D smile.

Then as they ate Toriko said that during the fight the enemy was quickly beaten by an ice bird and a strange ice dragon with a turbine.

"What?!" Kimiko asked. "Did the bird have a long silky tail and the dragon have bioluminescent wings?"

"Yeah, why?" Match asked.

"Those were Articuno and Kyurem!"

"Articuno and Kyurem?" Toriko asked as he got the dex out.

'Articuno, the Freezing Titan Beast, a Flying/Ice type.
Capture Level: Unknown.
Articuno has the power to control ice at will. When Articuno flaps its wings, it can chill the moisture in the air around it, making snow fall. It flies from icy mountain to icy mountain. According to legend, it appears before doomed travelers lost in icy regions and guides them to safety. Articuno lives in cold, isolated locations such as snowy mountains filled with permafrost.

Kyurem, the Boundary Beast. A rare Dragon/Ice type. Capture Level: Unknown.
Kyurem generates powerful, freezing energy inside itself, but its body becomes frozen when the energy leaks out. It appears that this Pokémon uses its ice powers to freeze its own body in order to stabilize its cellular structure. It is said to have a power that exceeds that of Reshiram and Zekrom, however, this power is kept at bay by the extreme cold. Kyurem is considered one of the strongest Dragon beasts in the world, powerful enough to plunge an entire continent into a new Ice Age.

Note: Both these creatures are lost Legendary Beasts.'

"Legendary Beasts?!" Takimaru exclaimed.

"Crazy...and then Kyurem actually talked about the Bishokukai being taken to the Renegade One." Match said.

"......He meant Giratina..." Kimiko said gravely.

'Giratina, the Renegade Beast. A Dragon/Ghost type. Capture Level: Unknown.
Giratina is a highly aggressive and territorial creature that is protective of its home. It has also been reported to appear in ancient cemeteries. Due to its typically violent nature, the history of Giratina was covered up due to ancient people fearing it. Giratina is said to have observed the real world silently while in its home dimension. In ancient times, when someone committed a serious crime, they would be thrown to Giratina for punishment. Giratina can also open portals through any reflective surface and uses its power to keep worlds in balance.'

"Seriously?!" Tina yelled.

"So their punishment isn't gonna be light..." Coco said.

Kimiko then noticed that Setsuno was stoking the fire and decided to break the tense atmosphere. "Um, Granny, thank you very much for helping us."

"I suggested you capture the Century Soup in the first place, then I got word that the Gourmet Show Window wasn't in such great shape. I requested an investigation to help you, but I heard that the extra help hadn't left yet. I came here to Ice Hell myself with Coco and what do I find." she turned to glare at Teppei, "Teppei, why are you, his student, here?"

"..."

"Not answering, are you?!" Setsuno yelled.

"Well, my master has his hands full," Teppei explained, "He's reviving a really important ingredient right now. So he sent me in his place."

"Important ingredient? And what ingredient is so important as to send his student on an investigation I requested?"

Teppei took a deep breath and took on a serious tone, "It's an ingredient related to the Gourmet God Acacia, that's all he said."

"That eccentric fool." Setsuno sighed, "And? What of the Gourmet Show Window?"

"Sadly, it was already expired. Just as master predicted. And as Kyurem said. However, we managed to squeeze out the final drop." Teppei explained

"It must have been quite a struggle. " Setsuno said

"Not at all!" Toriko exclaimed, "Now that I've eaten your food, I feel like I'm back to full strength!"

'Even without an arm?' Kimiko thought.

"You know, you might be able to heal that arm of yours." Setsuno said

"Seriously!" Toriko exclaimed

"If you head to the country of Life, there is a small chance." Setsuno answered

"We have some heavily injured people, it would be best to head there immediately." Takimaru said

"Don't forget, there is a talented Saiseiya there as well." Setsuno said making Teppei laugh and blush with happiness, "I'm talking about the master of the laughing fool here." Now Teppei was sporting a cloud of depression.

"Plus there are people who don't need to go, so while people are healing in Life, Kimiko will make the soup! Isn't that right?" Setsuno asked.

"Yes! I will make it! The real Century Soup!" Kimiko stated with confidence.

Empoleon agreed.

"Well then, it's decided. I'll take you there in this Limousine Jellyfish. The first stop, the healing country, Life!" Setsuno said causing everyone to yell out in glee.
-------------
Sorry for this cliffhanger but yeah, Penguin parents are okay!

But still the Bishokukai now gained a big loss!
