Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 265 Mushroom Beast Soup
After Puppymon fell asleep, Broly took out the Bayamon suit from his personal space, folded it on the ground next to him, and used it as a carpet for sleeping. He then gently placed the little guy with a golden collar around his neck on it.

Puppymon did not wake up because of this. Broly let out a breath, looked at the campfire in front of him, and used his consciousness to open the Crystal Palace panel.

Broly looked at the last information about the detention time.

However, the time he stayed in this world was 2 days, 3 hours, 11 minutes and 01 second in the real world, which was a very short stay time.

However, there is a situation similar to the previous time when he traveled to Master Aqua's world, but there is a delay in the digital world.

The display above shows 3071 days, 0 hours, 24 minutes and 33 seconds, and it is noted that this time is affected by the ratio of the time flow rate between the real world and the digital world.

Currently, the time ratio between the real world and the digital world is that one minute in the real world is equal to one day in the digital world.

In fact, this ratio will gradually decrease as the digital world and the real world become more synchronized.

In other words, the retention time on the Broly Crystal Palace panel is false and not as long as more than three thousand days.

However, Broly did not know this at the moment. After seeing the exaggerated detention time, he first showed a dazed expression, and then he became happy.

The boy lay back with peace of mind. The long stay made Broly feel that there was no need to rush to find another wife.

He simply used the ground as his bed and the sky as his blanket, and lay down at a distance from the puppy beast and fell asleep.

The bonfire burned all night and gradually went out at dawn.

The morning in the dense forest was a bit chilly. After feeling a chill on his back, the puppy was immediately awakened.

It pricked up its ears and looked around. The dangers of living alone made it extremely alert.

If it hadn't been so vigilant, it would never have survived until now.

However, after seeing Broly next to him, Puppymon suddenly realized that he was no longer alone, and his ears suddenly drooped.

“A bit cold~”

The puppy beast felt that winter was coming, and looking at the boy lying on the ground still sleeping, he took the strange green clothes from under him without hesitation.

Its movements were very slow, as if it was afraid of waking up the sleeping boy. It took some effort to finally cover Broly with the still warm Baya suit.

After doing all this, the puppy beast remembered that the boy had to eat after getting up, so he looked in the direction of the dense forest where he had escaped yesterday, and ran back with brisk steps.

After a while, the puppy beast arrived at the orchard of yesterday.

Now that it has four legs, it no longer needs to rely on hitting trees to get fruit.

He just took two steps back, rushed to a fruit tree and leaped onto it.

The puppy beast picked the fruits one by one with its claws, and after a while it had picked a pile of fruits.

But when I wanted to take these fruits back, I found myself in a dilemma.

Fortunately, Puppymon learned a lot of skills while surviving in this area.

Among them is the ability to imitate Barumon's weaving vines.

Puppymon got some vines. Although it no longer had the flexible long tail it had as a Meowthmon, the extra limbs allowed it to easily weave a vine net bag.

After putting the fruits into the vine net bag, Puppymon picked up the bag and ran back. Considering that Broly was a big eater, it went back and forth between the orchard and the campfire many times.

When Broly woke up, he saw Puppymon running towards him with a vine bag full of fruits in its mouth.

"Is this the breakfast you prepared for me?"

Broly asked, pointing at the fruits piled in pairs nearby.

"Yes, I prepared breakfast for you."

Puppymon came to the boy's feet, wagging its tail, and looked up at Broly with an expression that Broly seemed somewhat familiar with.

After thinking about it carefully, Broly remembered that Master Aqua sometimes had this expression, that was when he did something great and wanted to be praised and commended by others.

"Puppymon, you are awesome. Thank you for preparing breakfast for me."

Broly praised.

"You're welcome. It's my duty to prepare breakfast for you, Abu."

Puppymon's tail wagged faster, and its happiness value rose rapidly because of the praise.

"Abu?"

Broly looked at Puppymon in confusion.

"Calling you Rowley is a bit like calling a little girl, but you're a little boy, so I'm going to call you Abu."

The evolution of Digimon will cause their minds to grow as well. Puppymon felt that the name that Meowthmon liked when he was a Digimon was not appropriate, so he brought it up.

"May I?"

"Of course, you can call me anything you like."

Broly didn't care and started showing off the fruit he had for breakfast.

"Puppymon, you eat too."

However, while eating, Broly did not forget Puppymon and invited it to eat the fruit together.

The puppy beast did not refuse and lay on the ground and started to eat a fruit.

After eating and drinking, Broly asked: "Dogmon, do you have any wishes?"

"desire?"

“That’s what I want to achieve.”

Puppymon thought about it, nodded at first, but soon shook his head.

"What do you mean?"

Broly didn't quite understand why it nodded and shook its head, so he asked directly.

"I had a wish before, but now it has come true."

Puppymon rubbed against Broly's leg and said.

When Puppymon was hatched from the Digimon Egg and was still Snowballmon, he felt that he was waiting for someone.

But it didn't know who it was waiting for until it met Broly yesterday.

"I don't have any wishes to fulfill right now, as long as I can be with you, Abu."

Puppymon, also known as Protmon, has the data of a human pet template in its body, so it is very friendly.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Puppymon was always alone when he was Meowthmon. After being rescued by Broly yesterday and fed with Gougamon's scissor arms, he developed a complete sense of dependence on Broly.

In addition, Digimon in their growth stage generally have an IQ equivalent to that of a human child between the ages of 7 and 12, and are also in a somewhat clingy stage.

Of course, some Digimon are the naughty type, the kind that are very annoying, but obviously, Puppymon is not that kind of Digimon.

"Of course we'll be together. Well, since you don't have any wishes you want to fulfill for now, Puppymon, just follow me. Let's go find some other delicious food!"

The fruit was just to fill his stomach. Broly was still missing the roasted cicada-like Kugamon he had eaten yesterday, so he wanted to find another Kugamon or something else delicious.

After learning Broly's goal, Puppymon was a little hesitant.

Broly noticed its abnormality and asked directly: "What's wrong, Puppymon?"

"Aren't all other Digimon bad? Can we not eat the good ones?"

Puppymon asked.

When it was young, it was also taken care of by other Digimon.

Although this kind of care was not much, just occasionally throwing it a little food when it begged for food, this also became the reason why it was able to survive in its infancy Type 1 and evolve into Meowthmon.

Puppymon is not an ungrateful Digimon. Although its personality is still unstable due to its young age, it still remembers the Digimon that once gave it alms.

Gorgamon is bad, occupying the fruit forest and not giving other Digimon food, so it doesn't matter if it eats it, but other Digimon are just living their own lives. If it eats them like this, Puppymon thinks it will definitely be uncomfortable. Of course, if Broly insists, Puppymon will not object, because Broly is the most important person to it now.

"Of course, we'll just eat the bad Digimon."

Broly nodded. The wife beast's opinion was very important.

"Great, I know there are some bad guys in the jungle who like to bully weak Digimon. I'll take you, Abu, to find them."

The puppy beast was very happy. He jumped on the spot for a while and then started leading the way.

The first ones to be found were a group of mushroom beasts.

"This group of mushroom beasts often move in groups to snatch things from weaker Digimon. If the weaker Digimon don't give them what they want, they will blow them up with small mushroom bombs. The Digimon attacked by their mushroom bombs will laugh non-stop, their bodies will become paralyzed, and then they will be beaten by the mushroom beasts..."

Mushroommon is a growing-stage plant-type virus Digimon with a very bad personality. He likes to bully those weaker than himself. He is a robber in the jungle, but when he encounters a stronger mature Digimon, he will bury himself in the ground and pretend to be just an ordinary purple poisonous mushroom.

“Have you ever been bullied?”

Broly asked.

"These mushroom beasts have stolen my food before."

Puppymon complained.

"Okay, let's have mushroom soup today."

Broly licked his lips. He hadn't tasted the delicious mushroom soup for a long time.

"Well, but mushroom beasts are poisonous."

Puppymon reminded.

"It's okay. I have the ability to purify water."

Broly was talking about the water purification magic he learned from Aqua, but unfortunately he never had the chance to use it because it was water-generating magic.

Broly jumped directly down the slope and landed in the middle of a group of mushroom beasts.

"who?"

The mushroom beast suddenly became alert.

When faced with the weak, this group of purple mushrooms will strike back with a heavy punch.

But when facing a strong opponent, they will gather together and release poison at the same time.

Even some powerful mature Digimon generally wouldn't be willing to provoke a group of Toxicanthus.

"I am a Saiyan who picks mushrooms. You mushroom beasts either pick them for me obediently or resist and pick them for me."

Broly speaks candidly about his purpose.

Mushroommon: “???”

Picking mushrooms, I picked them on the heads of mushroom beasts. What is this?
The mushroom beast, who was already a bully in the dense forest, suddenly became furious.

"Damn it, I know you are a human, how dare you challenge us mushroom beasts?"

"Boss, the Jiazhi beast came to us before and asked us to pay attention to whether there are any human children in the dense forest.

If we find a human child and capture it and hand it over to them, we can get a lot from those Gazhi beasts.”

"Capture the boy alive and hand him over to Gazhimon for the reward!"

Hearing this, the Mushroom Beast leader's eyes lit up, and he ordered the Mushroom Beast brothers around him to let the two in front go up and tie up the boy.

“Pah, pah~”

However, the two purple mushroom beasts that went up were knocked unconscious by Broly with one blow each.

"what?"

The Mushroommon boss exclaimed with his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe that a mere human child could defeat a growing Digimon with just a hand knife.

"You are quite capable. No wonder you dare to challenge us. However, we Digimon are different from you humans. We have special moves. Brothers, this guy is powerful. Let's join forces to fight him!"

A group of mushroom beasts gathered around the boss and shouted together: "Mushroom bomb!"

"Bang~"

As the explosion occurred, a cloud of purple poisonous smoke rose.

But the next moment, Broly waved his hand and dispersed the poisonous fog created by a group of mushroom beasts.

The mushroom beast on the opposite side was also blown to the ground by the sudden wind.

"Run away, we are no match for them."

After getting up from the ground, the leader of the mushroom beasts, looking at the other mushroom beasts stumbling around, immediately realized that something was wrong. He called out and fled towards the bushes first.

"Where do you want to go without my consent?!"

When Broly saw the mushroom monsters running away, he jumped up immediately and stepped on the head of the running mushroom monster boss in the same way Mario stepped on mushrooms.

In just a moment, the mushroom beast boss, who usually bullies his fellow mushroom beasts in the dense forest, was trampled into a pile of mushroom sauce.

When the other Mushroom Beasts who were preparing to escape were frightened, Broly was also a little frightened, because the Mushroom Beast boss who turned into mushroom sauce directly turned into data and disappeared.

After trying a little more, Broly discovered that any Digimon he killed would quickly turn into data and disappear without a trace.

However, if you want to use mushroom beasts to make soup, you must do it while they are alive.

Capturing Mushroom Monster alive increases the difficulty of dealing with it, but this is only true for ordinary Digimon. For Broly, the only thing he needs to consider is how much force to use to ensure that Mushroom Monster can be knocked out without killing it.

It turns out that this is not difficult.

At noon, the purple thick soup was boiling in the pot.

A group of mushroom beasts began to become familiar with Broly under the stirring of his magic spoon.

But the soup made from them is indeed highly poisonous.

After stirring for a while, the spoon in Broly's hand actually melted.

"Abu, why don't we just not eat this."

Puppymon was a little worried and tried to persuade them.

"Don't worry, it's just a poisonous mushroom. I've eaten a swamp poisonous dragon before."

Broly cast water purification magic on the poisonous mushroom soup. As the water purification magic took effect, the color of the mushroom soup changed from dark purple to light purple.

After trying to throw the spoon handle in there and finding that it wasn't melted, Broly took a bite.

The delicious taste is the unique flavor of mushrooms.

The soup is slightly spicy, probably due to residual toxins.

However, it had no effect on Broly.

After casting water purification magic twice on the soup, Broly found a balance between neutralizing the toxins and retaining the original taste of the mushroom soup. Then he asked Puppymon next to him: "Puppymon, do you want to try it?"

Hearing this, Puppymon nodded. It believed that Broly would not harm it, so it got a bowl of Mushroommon soup with trace amounts of toxins.

Because of the three times of water purification magic, this almost transparent mushroom beast soup is no longer as delicious as the mushroom beast soup when it was light purple, and it lacks many layers of taste and rich flavor.

However, when Puppymon took the first sip, his tail began to wag, because he had never drunk even the simplest mushroom soup before.

The data stream resurfaced, but this time on the claws.

When Puppymon raised his hand and stretched out his paw, he found that there was already a weak layer of Mushroommon's paralyzing toxin on his paw.
