“Oh?”
“Interesting…”
After listening to Nakiri Erina’s introduction, Hong Yi didn’t show any fear, instead, he became even more interested.
He hadn’t eaten breakfast, and his stomach was rumbling.
He could catch ingredients from the Ninth Habitat Garden and have his partner cook a delicious meal.
“What is the highest-level ingredient that can be caught in the Ninth Habitat Garden?” Hong Yi asked.
Nakiri Erina answered without hesitation, “Previously, it was the Level 11 Unicorn Grizzly Bear, but now, it is the Rainbow Fruit that Director Mansam just transplanted from the Eighth Habitat Garden.”
“Rainbow Fruit!?”
Hong Yi’s eyes lit up.
This was one of the “Complete Menu of Life” of one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Gourmet, Toriko!
It was the “Dessert” on Toriko’s “Complete Menu of Life”!
Since the Rainbow Fruit was right in front of him, why wouldn’t he taste it?
Nakiri Erina saw the passion in Hong Yi’s eyes and solemnly advised, “The Rainbow Fruit’s capture level is 12, you need to be careful.”
“Don’t worry.”
“But to win this Shokugeki, I’m afraid I have to take the Rainbow Fruit.” Hong Yi said confidently.
A hint of worry flashed in Nakiri Erina’s eyes. She took out a watch and handed it to Hong Yi.
“Here, this is the Ingredient Encyclopedia Watch newly developed by the IGO Development Department, which contains information on 300,000 ingredients discovered so far.”
“Just aim the watch’s laser at the ingredient you want to identify, and you will get its information.”
“!!”
Aoi K久保桃 looked at Nakiri Erina in surprise.
Was this the “Queen of Totsuki” she knew?
Not only did she speak to a male student proactively, but she also gave him a gift.
This Ingredient Encyclopedia Watch, worth 20 million yen, was just given away.
Outrageous!
Abnormal!
Unbelievable!
Hong Yi took the Ingredient Encyclopedia Watch and thanked her. He asked curiously, “Nakiri Erina, why are you so nice to me?”
Nakiri Erina’s face flushed, she turned her head and explained arrogantly, “I… I’m not being nice to you.”
“Don’t get me wrong!”
“I just think that you, as a new student of Totsuki Academy, clearly passed the entrance exam, but were bullied by other Ten Masters, I… I just couldn’t stand it!”
“I see.”
Hong Yi nodded calmly and put the watch on his wrist.
Nakiri Erina secretly observed his expression with the corner of her eye, seeing that he didn’t react at all, she felt inexplicably disappointed in her heart.
“By the way, my name is Hong Yi, Hong of the ‘mighty flood’, Yi of ‘perseverance’.”
Hong Yi replied.
‘Hong’ of ‘mighty flood’!
Hearing Hong Yi’s self-introduction, the two girls were slightly shocked.
As the name suggests, he was indeed wild and domineering.
“Let’s go, I’ll trouble you two seniors, take me to the entrance of the Ninth Habitat Garden.” Hong Yi said.
“Wait!”
“Are you going like this?”
Nakiri Erina came back to her senses and quickly stopped Hong Yi.
The girl looked at his well-proportioned and muscular physique, her cheeks flushed slightly. She cleared her throat and said, “You can’t be like Isshiki Satoshi and be a hooligan.”
“This… This will make other girls… Uncomfortable.”
Hong Yi looked down at his wolf waist and eight-pack abs, nodded and replied, “I need to get a piece of clothing, but I don’t have any money.”
The meaning was very clear.
“I/ Kuma will accompany you to buy!”
Nakiri Erina and Aoi K久保桃 said in unison.
“!?”
Hong Yi looked at the two girls.
“Cough… Since K久保桃-san has… time, then let K久保桃-san accompany Hong-san to buy.”
“That, I still have something to do… I’ll… I’ll leave first…”
Nakiri Erina’s arrogant personality came to the forefront. She left with an explanation in a hurry.
Hong Yi looked at Nakiri Erina’s back and asked, “Does Nakiri Erina normally walk with her hands and feet together?”
Aoi K久保桃 tilted her head, poked her head out from behind the bear doll, looked at Nakiri Erina, and shook her head in confusion, “No.”
“Erina usually walks with decisiveness, without any hesitation, she has a queenly demeanor.”
“How could she walk with her hands and feet together?”
She swung the bear doll and muttered to herself, “It’s strange.”
Hong Yi chuckled inwardly.
This arrogant girl, wanting to save face, she probably regretted it.
Zhuge Liang caught Meng Huo by capturing him seven times and releasing him seven times.
Dealing with Nakiri Erina, you can’t be in a hurry, take your time.
Turn the “arrogant” into “pouting” before saying anything else.
Totsuki Academy has classrooms, dormitories, the Ninth Habitat Garden, supermarkets, shopping malls, and even vegetable gardens!
Aoi K久保桃 took Hong Yi to the mall to buy some clothes.
On the way.
Hong Yi was wearing a bath towel around his waist, with his muscular upper body bare, walking in Totsuki Academy, attracting countless eyes.
Next to him, Aoi K久保桃, was so shy that she wanted to bury her head completely in the bear doll.
Just as Aoi K久保桃 was taking Hong Yi shopping for clothes, a news about the “Ten Masters Shokugeki Reshuffle” spread like wildfire, instantly spreading throughout Totsuki Academy.
“Did you hear that? The Ten Masters Reshuffle Match has begun!”
“Really or not? Which Ten Masters are fighting? Is it going to be held in the ‘Moon Banquet Hall’?”
“This is too explosive! Let’s go, let’s go to the ‘Moon Banquet Hall’!”
Moon Banquet Hall.
A venue that can only be used for Shokugeki between the “Ten Masters”!
Portraits of past first seats are hung inside the venue.
“No, no, don’t go to the wrong place, the match is in the Ninth Habitat Garden.”
“Habitat Garden, isn’t it a cooking match?”
“Yes, the Shokugeki, Capture Match, the two parties are the Ninth Seat, Ryuuzenji Shizuka, known as the Alchemist, and the new student who made a splash yesterday.”
“The stakes are one person drops out of school, and the other surrenders their Ten Masters seat.”
“My goodness, New Student VS Ninth Seat, how dare he?”
“Humph, this new student is too arrogant, he thinks he can defeat the Ten Masters just because he captured the Garra Crocodile?!”
“Oh dear, what a pity, I was looking forward to becoming the new student’s partner.”
For a moment.
The vast Totsuki Academy, like a calm lake, dropped a boulder, causing waves to rise.
The teachers and students were all in a frenzy.
This kind of Ten Masters level match is extremely rare, students are even eligible to skip class and go watch.
Totsuki Academy, back mountain.
Ninth Habitat Garden!
A 20-meter high, 7-8 meter thick wall, entirely made of reinforced concrete, forming an impenetrable defense, surrounding the vast garden, forming a buffer zone, preventing the beasts from escaping.
You know.
Inside, there are all beasts with a capture level of 1 or higher.
Ordinary students of Totsuki Academy are no match.
Usually.
Only Gourmet Hunters from the Hunter Division will come to the Ninth Habitat Garden for cruel and dangerous trials.
But today, there were thousands of teachers and students from Totsuki Academy gathered, watching the Ten Masters Reshuffle Match that was about to erupt!
