Chapter 220 - Regal Plateau Training
______________________
---The next day---
Regal Plateau,
In a vast and barren rocky wasteland with giant rocks and mountains being the only sight to see for miles, Lev could be found in this place alone while holding onto two identical guns in his both hands.
Looking around the place, no plant life appears to exist in the area where Lev is right now but the beasts around the place could count up to hundreds of them. There were different kinds of predator beasts either small or large. However, one thing is common among them which is they were heading at Lev angrily and hungrily.
On the other hand, as the Billion Bird still needed quite a few days to hatch, Lev used the time to train which he was now fighting against the beasts living in the Regal Plateau and used them as his training partners as he wanted to get used to the weapons and items that he got a while back.
With both Pumpkins in his hands, Lev skillfully dealt with the never-ending beasts coming to him as he pretty much let himself bleed and his blood attracted most of the surrounding beasts. Like a madman, he continued firing since the bullets used were a transformation of his mana and so it was endless.
"This weapon really is powerful." Lev suddenly said as he looked at the weapon in his hand to kill and erase the existence of the creatures coming after him. He has been using them since then, but he still could not move on from the fact that he got such a weapon.
Looking closely, it wasn't just Lev's weapon that was powerful upon seeing his six pairs of wings moving on their own either to attack or defend. From the day that he started training, Lev came to know that the wings that he got were very durable to the point that it was nearly indestructible upon using them to take on some of his summons attacks.
"I have yet to test the limits of these wings, but I can't just rush things like this." Lev muttered. Though he had not tried it yet, he was sure that they could withstand what he had in mind.
"Well, it's all down to Armament Haki in the end." Lev said before using the Pumpkins and his wings to their full potential as he cleaned up the remaining stronger beasts as the weak ones have already started running away from him after his never-ending massacre.

---Noon---
Giant Rock,
As noon arrived, Lev could now be found on top of the giant rock eating the beasts that he had hunted as his lunch for the day. Looking closely, there were several dishes around Lev as his clones were doing their best to cook and not to waste the ingredients.
"Just when will I be able to level up Martial Arts Specialist and Weapon Specialists to the next realm?" Lev asked himself while munching up the ingredients he hunted. After all these years of training, these two skills haven't improved much despite utilizing his clones. He hated to admit it but somehow, he felt like there really was something like a trigger like what he thought in the past.
After that, Lev then just looked at the distance as he set aside all unnecessary thoughts for now. In fact, he did not just come here to train, he actually also wanted to see the Regal Mammoth where the Jewel Meat could be acquired. He knew that it would still take time before it created such meat, so he only wanted to see it for now.
Following his lunch, Lev then continued his journey on the Regal Plateau while training at the same time. He didn't even bother taking all the beasts he hunted as his clones were the ones dealing with them as he only focused on moving forward.

---Two hours later---
After two hours of running around, Lev and his two GBEs finally saw the beast he was looking for. In front of him was a beast with a furry red body and black stripes and had exactly six muscular legs and two long trunks. It has a long, thick tail and what appear to be its ears that look like small vestigial wings.
"It is big, and it looks so fat. I wonder what it tastes like." Lev suddenly asked as he looked at the enormous Regal Mammoth that was walking leisurely together with another Regal Mammoth but small compared to the first one.
"Jewel Meat, a particular meat inside of the Regal Mammoth that was well sought since ancient times. Unfortunately, this beast would only generate such meat every decade so I could not get a taste of it right now since Toriko might have already got it." Lev followed with his mouth drooling just by imagining it.
"Well. I only plan on looking for it now. I pretty much finished what I have been doing here. Looks like it's now time to head back." Lev said while looking at Regal Mammoth which he then just ordered his legion of shadow soldier beasts wanting their location always on his radar. He then called out a pair of his wings as he flew up and headed back to where Mamako and the others were.

---Night---
As per usual, Lev and the others created a bonfire just beside the Million Tree as they were having a conversation. Since they pretty much had nothing to do but wait, they then could only think of talking things seeing them now listening seriously to Chichi who was talking about the story of his life.
As Mamako and the others were immersed in listening to Chichi's life story, Lev, on the other hand, was thinking of another matter seeing him lying on the ground looking at the sky with his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception activated.
All this time while he was training in the Regal Plateau, his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception was pretty much activated all the time which greatly helped him hit all the beasts though they would still be killed since the Pumpkins were just too powerful for them. That was when he realized that the eyes were more compatible with cold weapons than hot weapons.
"These eyes really are deadly." Lev muttered as he described the eyes that he didn't regret buying. The skill was pretty much still quite a low level for now and only enabled him to see the lines of everything. He remembered that it was said that the highest level of this skill would grant anyone to kill by just looking which makes him very excited to see what Tier it would be unlocked.
"Master, I think this nitro is talking nonsense." Mamako suddenly said as she looked and interrupted Lev. She had been seriously listening to Chichi for a while but all she could hear was him telling nonsense about him being a narcissist as he always praised himself every single time.
"Hahahaha. Then, how about a walk?" Lev laughed before looking at Mamako with a grin on his face. He was actually also listening to Chichi's story, and he pretty much believed all that he said while setting aside his narcissism.
Hearing Lev, Mamako looked at him with a blush on her face which she then replied in a whisper before the both of them excused themselves as they had something to head to for some time leaving behind Chichi who was shaking from fear while being alone with Luna and White Fang.

---The next day---
Regal Plateau,
It was already the second day, but the Billion Bird Egg still wasn't showing signs of hatching so Lev together with Mamako took the time and headed straight to the Regal Plateau. After they had done something last night, Mamako convinced Lev to let her follow him in his training.
This time around, Lev wasn't planning on hunting the beast again as he left his shadow soldiers yesterday for a reason seeing them now leisurely heading to where the Regal Mammoth is at this moment. With them as his eyes, they were now heading straight without dealing with the beasts coming after them since they only had a goal this time and that was to enter the body of the Regal Mammoth and explore the place inside.
Not too long after that, Lev and Mamako finally arrived and saw two Regal Mammoths resting at the moment. Lev felt like his luck was kind of great today thinking that they could enter its body without a problem however, they still didn't immediately head inside as they just looked at it real close.
"If I didn't look at its status, I would never have expected that this small Regal Mammoth already had its Jewel Meat inside. Looks like your presence gives us luck, Mamako." Lev said with great excitement while looking at the smaller Regal Mammoth. Though it only states that only a portion of it was inside, a Jewel Meat is still a Jewel Meat.
With Lev's sudden exclamation, the small Regal Mammoth opened its eyes, and there its Lev and Mamako. Surprised by their sudden appearance, it felt like food itself came to him and so it moved its nose and inhaled the both of them for an early snack for the day.
"Mamako, hold me tight." Lev immediately said as he pulled Mamako closer to him. He actually wasn't nervous and was more excited instead thinking that another opportunity appeared before them which he then let themselves sucked in by the Regal Mammoth as he planned on using this to enter its body.
With that, the Regal Mammoth then immediately closed its eyes once again wanting to continue its resting without knowing that Lev and Mamako would steal away the most precious part of its body.

Regal Mammoth's Body,
After some time, Lev and Mamako landed down on a place where colorful squishy structures could be seen in the surroundings. Lev was pretty much familiar with the place since he had seen it back when he was watching the Regal Mammoth Arc but what he was surprised about is that, despite the Regal Mammoth they were in was still young, the place was still very big inside it.
"Master, did we just get eaten?" Mamako immediately asked while looking around the place. She knew what had just happened back then, but she also felt like they were not thinking that they were in another place as it was completely like a brand-new world inside.
"Yes. Just perfect. Echolocation!" Lev smiled with excitement and immediately used Echolocation to get a perfect map of the area which would allow them to locate the Jewel Meat faster. With that, he then focused on using Echolocation before he looked at Mamako with a sweet smile before grabbing her hand as they left the place as if they were in a hurry.
