Starting as a Master Inventor from Hunter x Hunter

Then Chrollo silently witnessed once again that same large tree produce another identical black coconut fruit.

Chapter 019 [Plant Mutagen]

Invention: [Plant Mutagen]

Source: Doraemon World—Future Technology Company.

Effect: Can be used to transform plants into various foods. Each food has its own Plant Mutagen; inject it into a plant with a needle, and the plant will bloom and bear fruit. Open the fruit to obtain the desired food.

This is the [Plant Mutagen] that comes with its own variety of foods, still from the world of Doraemon.

At the same time, it's a tool that can satisfy all kinds of food needs.

First appeared in the 1982 theatrical film, [Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Ocean].

It tells the story of Doraemon and the others being led by the dog prince (lowered head, also translated as Flatty) to the interior of Africa, beginning an adventure in a magical land.

There, an incredible dog kingdom exists.

On the way forward, Nobita and the gang got hungry, and Doraemon first took out the [Delivery Phone].

But Gian vetoed it with the reason, "Ordering takeout in Africa would ruin the adventure vibe," and swapped it for another tool.

That was this [Plant Mutagen].

By injecting this miraculous agent into plants, they obtained all kinds of food everyone wanted to eat.

Mog, after seeing Machi and Uvogin name the foods they wanted, immediately thought of this [invention].

And he successfully injected it into this large tree.

"Here, this one's yours."

Mog handed the new black coconut fruit to Machi.

Crack.

She opened it lightly, and the steaming hot air that burst out instantly perfumed her face.

"Seafood Fried Rice, enjoy it properly."

Mog introduced with a smile.

But Machi's gaze was already fixed on the bowl of fried rice in her hands.

Every grain of rice was fried to a golden hue, seemingly coated in a unique sauce.

There were also glistening golden scrambled eggs as garnish, and the undisputed stars inside~~~

"Shrimp, fish, octopus tentacles, squid strips..."

In the screening room, Chrollo muttered each word, identifying all the marine animals he had learned about from the videotapes before!!

And as he muttered, each name he spoke made Pakunoda beside him swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Compared to those big chunks of meat, in terms of visual appeal, this Seafood Fried Rice actually caught the attention of girls like them more.

Machi couldn't hold back any longer. She picked up the wooden spoon that came with the box, scooped up a spoonful of rice, and sent it straight into her mouth.

And her scoop was very deliberate—rice, egg, shrimp, squid, all included.

It let that single bite encompass most of the essence of the entire Seafood Fried Rice!

"Mmm..."

The moment Machi's tongue first tasted this flavor, her whole body trembled.

It was as if a force from the depths of the ocean swept through her entire being.

Making her feel as though the ocean's depth and richness fell from her throat, spreading through her whole body!!

"..."

Machi was silent for a moment, or rather, savoring the aftertaste.

Then, she quickly lifted the spoon again, sending mouthful after mouthful of Seafood Fried Rice into her mouth.

Her eating style wasn't as wild as Uvogin's, but her speed and rhythm were still quite fast.

Soon, this portion of Seafood Fried Rice visibly diminished.

"As long as you two enjoy it~~~"

Seeing them both burying their heads in their food, Mog chuckled lightly and picked up another Mutagen.

Mm, the way they ate so heartily had actually made him hungry too.

He himself hadn't eaten yet, after all.

Crack, slurp, crack.

Inject, bear fruit, open and remove the lid—all in one smooth motion.

"I won't hold back either."

Looking at the generous serving of Braised Pork with Potatoes Rice Bowl inside his own fruit, a genuine smile spread across Mog's face.

"Nom~"

After shoving a mouthful of food in, he couldn't help but smile even more brightly.

"Sure enough, hometown food really is better, the flavor's so much richer~~~"

Mog sighed with comfort in his heart, then simply sat down cross-legged on the spot and buried his head in eating too.

For a moment, there wasn't a single sound throughout the entire forest.

Only the three of them scraping food into their mouths, along with the sounds of chewing and swallowing.

The aroma lingering around them kept slowly spreading outward.

Until~~~

"Uvogin?!!"

A shout full of surprise, but also laced with anger, rang out from within the woods.

"Huh?!"

Uvogin, who was happily tearing into his meat, instinctively looked up at the sound of his name.

Then he saw that familiar duo reappear in his field of vision.

"So it's you two losers again..."

Uvogin gulped, swallowing all the meat in his mouth in one go.

"What, can't wait to come back and get your asses kicked again?!!"

He said as he wiped the meat juice trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Phinks: "~~~~~~"

He glared hatefully at Uvogin, his eyes filled with nothing but his figure.

Truth be told, they'd come here planning to sneak a peek at what was making such a delicious smell.

If they got the chance, they wanted to snatch some to treat themselves.

But after arriving and spotting Uvogin through the trees, wolfing down meat with big bites, Phinks immediately lost it.

Chapter 020: Hand Over Your Food!!

Why should we suffer so miserably from getting beaten, while you're here feasting on meat and fish?!

Why should we be wincing in pain, while you're eating meat with a grin you can't close?!

Why should we be roughing it out in the wild, having to sneak around just to fix a motorcycle, while you're here filling your belly with fragrant food, the meat juice and grease dripping from your lips making us drool uncontrollably?!

Phinks's endless resentment turned into a string of *skr*s, nearly erupting into sky-high fury.

Then he couldn't hold it in any longer—he leaped out and shouted Uvogin's name.

"Hand over your food!!!"

He stared fixedly at Uvogin, or rather, at the meat in Uvogin's hands.

Phinks had never, ever craved any food as desperately as he did right now!!

"So this time you're after my meat, huh~~~"

Uvogin curled his lips, then flashed a smile that could infuriate a man to death:

"No way!!"

With that, he moved quickly, dumping the remaining big chunks of meat from the black coconut fruit into his mouth all at once.

Munch munch.

The rich aroma of tender, fatty meat instantly filled his mouth.

"You damn bastard..."

Phinks watched helplessly as the food was shoveled into Uvogin's mouth and savaged by his teeth.

But he was too late to stop it—all he could do was witness it powerlessly.

He flew into a rage, itching to rush forward, bite Uvogin to death, and tear him limb from limb.

Especially when he saw Uvogin flick his hand, flinging the meat juice away, his envy burned even hotter.

Here they hadn't even had a sip of the juice, and this bastard Uvogin was already being that wasteful.

It was enough to make a man grind his teeth in jealousy.

"No matter what you say today, you're staying right here!!"

Phinks was brimming with fury, needing to vent it properly: "Perfect—let's settle old and new scores together!!"

Feitan nodded along beside him.

But his gaze was fixed on the food in Mog's and Machi's hands.

Gurgle~~~
