Chapter 19 - Plant Re-modeler

Invention: Plant Re-modeler

Source: Doraemon World — Future Tech Company.

Effect: It can be used to transform plants into all kinds of food. Each type of food has its own plant modifier. Insert the needle into the plant to inject it, and afterward, the plant will blossom and bear fruit. Open the fruit, and you can obtain the food you want to eat.

This is the Plant Re-modeler, which comes with all kinds of food, originating from Doraemon's world.

(Note: Doraemon: Nobita and the Haunts of Evil, Page 49)

It is also a tool that can satisfy various food needs.

It first appeared in the 1982 movie Doraemon: Nobita and the Haunts of Evil.

The story tells of Nobita and his friends, who are led by Peko, as they embark on a dangerous journey into the hidden kingdom in Africa.

On their journey, Nobita and his friends become hungry, and Doraemon first pulls out his gadget, the Delivery Telephone.

However, Takeshi argues that ordering takeout in the underworld would ruin the atmosphere of adventure, so Doraemon replaces it with a different tool: the Plant Re-modeler.

By injecting this magical agent into plants, they can obtain all sorts of food that everyone wants to eat.

When Machi and Uvogin mentioned the foods they wanted, Luke immediately thought of this invention and injected it into this very tree.

"Here, this is yours."

Luke handed Machi the new black coconut fruit.

Click.

She gently opened it, and the steam rising from it instantly filled her face.

"Seafood fried rice, try it!"

Luke introduced it with a smile.

Machi's eyes were already fixed on the bowl of fried rice in her hand.

Every grain of rice was fried to a golden brown, as if coated in a unique sauce.

There was also a golden scrambled egg as a garnish, and the undisputed protagonists…

"Shrimp, fish, octopus legs, squid whiskers..."

In the screening room, Chrollo muttered word by word, recalling from the videotapes the marine creatures he had studied and identifying each one of them.

And with every name he spoke, Pakunoda beside him swallowed her saliva.

Compared to the chunks of meat, the seafood fried rice, visually speaking, actually caught the girls' attention even more.

Machi couldn't help herself. She picked up the wooden spoon that came with the box and scooped a spoonful of rice directly into her mouth.

She was very particular about this spoonful, including rice, egg, shrimp, and squid, everything.

Just enough for her to take in most of the essence of the seafood fried rice with just one bite!

"Hmm..."

Machi's tongue trembled as she savored the flavor for the first time.

It was as if a force from the depths of the ocean washed over her.

She felt the ocean's depth and richness, flowing down her throat and spreading throughout her body!

"..."

Machi was silent for a moment, perhaps savoring the taste. Then, she quickly lifted her spoon and shoveled mouthful after mouthful of seafood fried rice into her mouth.

Her eating wasn't as frantic as Uvogin's, but her speed and frequency were certainly impressive.

Soon, the portion of seafood fried rice was dwindling at a noticeable rate.

"As long as you like it..."

Seeing the two of them munching away, Luke chuckled and picked up another modification agent.

Well, the sight of them eating so heartily was making him hungry.

He himself hadn't eaten yet.

Crack, slurp, snap.

Inject, fruit, pluck, open, done in one go.

"I won't be polite then."

Looking at the overflowing portion of potato and braised pork rice inside his fruit, Luke's face broke into a heartfelt smile.

Chomp.

After sending a spoonful into his mouth, his smile grew even brighter.

"As expected, the food back home is still better, more fragrant..."

Luke sighed with a sense of comfort and then simply sat down on the ground, also quietly eating.

For a while, the forest was utterly silent.

There was only the sound of the three people shoveling food into their mouths, chewing, and swallowing.

But the surrounding fragrance lingered, slowly spreading outward.

Until…

"Uvogin?!"

A cry filled with surprise, yet tinged with anger, echoed from the forest.

"Huh?!"

Uvogin, happily enjoying his food, instinctively looked up at the sound of his own name.

Then, he saw the familiar duo reappear in his sight.

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

Uvogin gulped, swallowing the food in his mouth. "What? You're so impatient to get beaten up again, huh?!"

He speaks while wiping the meat juice from the corner of his mouth.

Phinks: "..."

He glared at Uvogin, his eyes filled with hatred.

In fact, they had come here planning to secretly check what smelled so delicious.

If they had the chance, they would have snatched some to enjoy.

But after they arrived, they saw Uvogin munching on meat through the trees.

Phinks immediately lost control.
