Toriko, Vol. 26

Toriko is a Gourmet Hunter out to eat the world!

In a savage world ruled by the pursuit of the most delicious foods, it's either eat or be eaten! While searching for the tastiest foods imaginable, Gourmet Hunter Toriko travels the world with his bottomless stomach, facing every beast in his way.

When battle breaks out at the Cooking Festival, it’s Toriko vs. Starjun, Sunny vs. Tommy and an assembly of world-class chefs and Gourmet Hunters against Gourmet Corp’s vile monsters and souped-up villains. But when Toriko stumbles in his battle to the death against Starjun, Komatsu witnesses the unthinkable! Is this the end of Toriko?
