Extreme

Mnemonic

A tree with a mouth eats a beggar and his stool, which were on the ground next to him, which seems to be a bit extreme, don't you think?

Hints

The beggar was just sitting there on a stool! Why so extreme?

Readings

On’yomi

きょく, ごく

Kun’yomi

None

Mnemonic

The extreme tree now turns on you and wants to eat you, but luckily Goku (ごく) from Dragon Ball Z is with you and he manages to cloak you (きょく) both with his cloaking device just in the nick of time.

Hints

You know Goku from Dragon Ball, right? Imagine him pulling out his cloaking device extremely quickly and cloaking you both, just as the extreme tree's mouth is about to close around you. Phew, that was extremely close.
