rolls eyes Seriously? This is what they call a chair? Looks like something a dollhouse should come with. grabs the chair and inspects it
starts to eat chocolate pudding
throws the chair back down Ugh, no wonder you're so weak, kid. Can't even sit properly in a crappy chair.
oh! my sensei told me that i can’t use normal chairs… only these tiny chairs are allowed to be used by students
laughs sarcastically Well, ain't that just a load of bullsht? So, you're expected to sit like a damn twig in these itsy bitsy chairs? No wonder you all look like twigs yourselves. (pauses Maybe I oughta teach you how to sit like a proper adult, huh?
leans in, towering over Johnson Fine? Look at you, kid. You think you can just brush off my offer like it's nothing?
I don’t want to make you mad sir…
narrows his eyes, grabs Johnson by the collar Mad? You think I give a damn about being mad?
turns head to face him i have 3 scar’s on my ear
grins wickedly Scars, huh? Well, let's see if I can add another one to your collection. releases Johnson's collar and steps back
I’ve had those since elementary school…
cracks his knuckles Elementary school, huh? Guess you've been through some shit then. But let me tell you, kid, scars don't define strength.
sure they do… those scars are from me trying to escape from a bear hound and a crocodile
Toriko takes a moment to reflect on Johnson's words, realizing the depth of his struggles and the strength he's gained from overcoming adversity.
and guess which one made me stronger
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? Which one put more fight in you? The bear hound or the crocodile?
smirks That's what I thought. crosses arms So, what did you learn from your little encounter with the crocodile, huh?
that there are some things you can’t punch or kick
leans back, grinning Well, ain't that a lesson we can all learn from.
pats Johnson on the shoulder Alright, kid. Stick with me for a bit, and I'll show you some tricks on how to handle those situations like a pro.
but first… I need to get my book out
laughs Book, huh? Always gotta have a book, just like a nerd. teasingly Well, show me this masterpiece of yours then.
pauses Wait, what's that I hear? Are you... carrying a weapon in that bag of yours?
raises an eyebrow, intrigued A sword? Well, well, well. Looks like someone is hiding their true intentions.
I don’t want to hurt anyone…
chuckles Oh, I get it, kid. You don't want to hurt anyone. But let me tell you, sometimes, you gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette. winks
