Chapter 113: Tundra Dragon
"It"s f.u.c.k.i.n.g cold....."
Haru was hugging his body since it was very cold. He really hated cold temperatures and couldn"t wait to hurry up to go back to his world.
Their helicopter had arrived on the cliff and they needed to climb this ma.s.sive pillar to get into their destination.
"d.a.m.n, this is really cold," Tsunade said while doing the same.
"Hmm, it"s cold but it"s the same as the Ice h.e.l.l," Luffy said.
"The upper part of this place is colder though," Haru said.
"I will be going first," Toriko said while carrying Komatsu on his back.
"Bye, everyone," Komatsu waved his hand.
"I will be going too," Takimaru said.
"Let"s go," Tsunade said and looked at them but she frowned when she saw Luffy was hugging his back. "What are you doing?"
"Ah, Haru can fly to the top," Luffy said.
"Is that true?" Tsunade asked.
Haru nodded, "It"s faster than climbing, let"s go."
"Good," Tsunade was also lazy to climb this ma.s.sive pillar of ice.
Haru walked toward her and did a princess carry, "Hold my neck."
Tsunade felt weird when she was being carried in princess carry by someone who was several years younger than her but it wasn"t a bad feeling.
Haru started to use his light magic and manipulated a photon around him to make him able to fly toward the top.
Toriko, Komatsu, Takimaru, and everyone was shocked looking at his ability.
"d.a.m.n, that"s cheating," Toriko complained and started to move faster, "I will be faster, hold me tight, Komatsu."
"Toriko-san!!!" Komatsu was startled.
Takimaru, Match and his subordinates looked at each other and started to climb at their own paces.
On the ship, one man slaughtered everyone inside.
Step! Step! Step!
His steps were similar to the grim reaper that killed every person that appeared in front of him. He walked toward the mastermind of the event.
Colonel Mokoi was calm while turning his back against this man, "Are you one of them too? Hee hee hee, it"s useless, I"m not here right now." He turned his head toward this masked man, "Go after the soup, I don"t care who you are, and I won"t begrudge you the reward."
The masked man looked at him quietly and no one knew what he was thinking.
Haru landed on the top of the Ice h.e.l.l and as expected it was very cold.
"Dammit, what is this? Why is it very cold?" Tsunade saw the vodka on her hand was frozen and she couldn"t drink it anymore.
"Cold!!!" Luffy was hugging him when he heard that when someone was hugging each other they could feel warmer.
"Oi, Haru!!!" Tsunade was angry when she was ignored.
"What"s wrong, Haru?" Luffy looked up and opened his mouth wide.
"What"s wrong?" Tsunade also looked up and she was baffled.
In front of them, there is humongous beast standing at over 85 meters in length and is easily around the size of a tall building, making humans look like ants in comparison to its great size. It has a white leathery hide and scales, and the entirety of its back is covered in blue vain-like markings that go from the top of its head to the tip of its tail. It also has faintly glowing yellow eyes. It also has very sharp fangs and numerous horns growing on the bridge of its snout.
"WHAT THE h.e.l.l IS THIS!!!!" Tsunade was startled.
Luffy gulped when he saw it.
"Don"t worry, it"s dead," Haru said.
"Dead???" Tsunade and Haru were startled.
"Don"t tell me, is this because of the weather in this place?" Tsunade thought that this trip was similar to vacation but when she saw the monster in front of her. She knew that she needed to be serious since the danger of this place was higher than she had thought.
"Can we eat it?" Luffy asked.
"Alright, get down, I don"t want to carry you all the time on this journey," Haru said to both of them.
"Eh, stingy!!!" Tsunade and Luffy said at the same time.
"Hurry up!" Haru said.
Tsunade and Luffy pouted and decided to walk by themselves.
"But still, it"s very cold, don"t you have the means to warm ourselves?" Tsunade asked. Her chakra was a bit useless in this situation and the high-tech suit in their body also had its own limit.
Haru knew that there was someone inside the body of this dragon. He didn"t really make trouble for himself and it was better to leave it alone. He wanted to answer Tsunade but someone suddenly shouted.
"What the?"
"UWAAAAAAAAA!!"
"THAT"S TUNDRA DRAGON!!!!"
Haru, Tsunade, and Luffy turned their heads.
"Oh, Toriko! Komatsu!" Luffy smiled, even though part of his face was frozen.
Tsunade was better but there was still ice on her cheek. She looked at him, "Haru, you have the means to warm ourselves right?" She didn"t want to have part of her body frozen.
Haru, who hated cold weather, had practiced light magic that was suitable for this occasion. His body started to emit warm light, "Caldo."
Luffy and Tsunade who was right beside him started to feel warmer and the ice on their body started to melt.
"AWESOME, HARU!!!!" Luffy was happy.
"Why are you not doing it earlier?" Tsunade asked.
"Let"s go, I don"t want a lot of people joining us," Haru felt that a lot of people would be following him when he showed this skill.
Tsunade nodded and thought it would be annoying to have a lot of people around.
"Toriko! Komatsu! Do you want to come with us?" Luffy asked.
"Ah, don"t worry, we will be here for a while," Toriko said.
Komatsu wanted to join them since it felt warmer around them but didn"t say anything when Toriko decided to stay.
"Alright, we will go first," Haru said and walked.
