During the Kajiba no Kuso Chikara Challenge, Meat is unknowingly reunited with his father, who is currently serving as a Planet Kinniku elder. He learns the truth however, moments before Minch is killed by Bone Cold.

He accompanied Mantaro to the Choujin Olympics: The Resurrection, where he was paired with Ilioukhine during the final prelimanry round. They worked together as a team and came in second place. After Ilioukhine's semi-finals match with Kevin Mask he almost crashes into the ground and suffers a career ending injury, but Meat gets in the way and saves him. As a result, however, he is too inured to assist Mantarō during his finals match against Kevin.

During the Demon Seed Arc, Meat once again has his body separated. This time his body parts will be added to a cauldron
