The Armor Hoihoi is deadly breed of parasitic insect. It is one of the many insects that are bred by Tommyrod.
Anatomy[]
The Armor Hoihoi is a large insectoid that can grow to be around 30 centimeters in length and reach up to a human's knee in height, and when fully grown it can weigh up to 3 kilograms. Its blue body is covered in a heavily armored and shiny carapace of great durability.
Behavior[]
It picks its prey at random, eating its way in through the anus and laying its eggs in the gut.
Powers and Abilities[]
An Armor Hoihoi's outer shell is so tough it can withstand direct fire from a bazooka without cracking. It's even harder than diamond! With its wings it is capable of flying quite rapidly and it is able to survive in cold climates for an unknown amount of time.
Uses[]
The meat of the Armor Hoihoi is not fit for consumption, but its incredibly durable shell is a very valuable resource which can be crafted into utensils and even used in military research.
History[]
Century Soup Arc[]
As Tommyrod and his team prepared to capture the Century Soup in Ice Hell, he summoned four of his insects, an Armored Hoihoi, a Rock Bee, a Spew Weevil and a Jam Grasshopper, to find and kill any other gourmet hunters that may be searching for the soup. All four beasts were eventually knocked out by Teppei.
