The killing beam was too fast.
Ruiyama Shizuko, who was still arrogant and smug, couldn't react at all, and was directly pierced through the throat by the killing beam. Blood splattered across the forest.
“You… how is this possible…”
Ruiyama Shizuko didn't die immediately. He covered his broken neck with his hands, his eyes wide with disbelief, as he looked at Hong Yi in confusion.
Hong Yi casually tossed away the metal bird head of the GT robot and replied indifferently, “As you said, I'm not very lucky, so I've planned a bit more.”
“This GT robot had one killing beam that didn't fire. I interrupted it and stored it in the bird head launcher.”
“What?”
Ruiyama Shizuko was dumbfounded.
Is that even possible?
“Let me teach you a lesson. What does it matter if you lack luck? Man can overcome anything!” Hong Yi said with determination in his voice.
As a time traveler.
It's normal for him to not be favored by luck.
But…
So what?
As Hong Yi said, man can overcome anything.
As long as you're strong enough, even the Food God can be defeated by you.
So what can a little bit of luck do?
Of course.
In the world of *Toriko*, luck can be said to be crucial.
Without luck, even if you capture an ingredient, it may turn into a bitter experience.
But for Hong Yi, what does it matter if it's bitter?
It quenches your thirst!
“Whew…”
“It's really exhilarating after opening the Devil Back.”
“After this battle, I think most of the ferocious beasts in the depths of the forest must have been scared away. But to be safe, I should eat a Rainbow Fruit to recover my body and strength.”
Hong Yi took out a chocolate mushroom he had reserved and put it in his mouth.
He chewed it a few times.
He regained a bit of strength.
Actually, with this chocolate mushroom, he could still have killed Ruiyama Shizuko with a surprise attack.
Hong Yi didn't put all his eggs in one basket.
After eating the chocolate mushroom, Hong Yi dragged his exhausted body up the 10-meter-tall Rainbow Fruit tree. He climbed up the vines and threw himself onto the 1-meter-wide Rainbow Fruit.
“So this is the Rainbow Fruit?”
Hong Yi sniffed the scent that triggered his hunting desire, and his mouth immediately watered.
No wonder the Rainbow Fruit is extinct in the wild.
It's not poisonous at all.
And it attracts other life to capture it.
It's a typical masochist, it killed itself off!
But there is another possibility.
The Rainbow Fruit emits a strange scent that attracts nearby ferocious beasts to capture it.
Those ferocious beasts, naturally, would fight, and then kill each other, fighting to the death, blood flowing like rivers, corpses piling up.
The corpses of these ferocious beasts might have become fertilizer for the Rainbow Fruit tree.
“Whatever, let's eat it.”
Hong Yi cast aside his worries and took a bite.
“Pop.”
Instantly.
The Q-elastic and soft skin burst like a needle pricking a balloon, and the pulp inside flowed into Hong Yi's mouth like cold, smooth jelly.
He took a deep breath.
Hong Yi's eyes widened, his pupils filled with blood, and his cheeks puffed up like balloons.
It's so exciting!
It's so rich!
The unimaginably delicious juice exploded in his mouth like a bomb, fierce and intense, hitting his 10,000 taste buds.
Each taste bud, in a very short time, was washed dozens or even hundreds of times by the rich juice.
Every time, the flavor was different.
“Is this the legendary Rainbow Fruit?”
“No wonder it's rumored that a drop of juice can turn the water in a 25-meter-long swimming pool into rich and fragrant juice.”
“It's true!”
Hong Yi's mind exploded along with the juice of the Rainbow Fruit. He swallowed the endless pulp and juice in large gulps.
At this moment.
He felt like his “robes were about to burst,” and his whole body felt like he was swimming freely in a gigantic juice pool several miles long.
No.
It's not a pool, it's more like an ocean of juice!
“Boom boom boom.”
Hong Yi's body trembled slightly, each muscle expanding rhythmically.
The muscle fibers in his body, which were severely injured after opening the Devil Back, were being repaired at an alarming rate.
At the same time.
The energy in his body, which was completely exhausted, was quickly converted and replenished by the rich fructose and nutrients contained in the Rainbow Fruit.
The progress bar for fusing the Yujiro Hanma template was even visible to the naked eye.
If the chocolate mushroom is a heat bomb.
Then.
The Rainbow Fruit is a heat fountain!
A large mouthful of highly concentrated juice contains 10,000 kcal of energy.
If you eat a whole Rainbow Fruit, it's estimated to replenish 700,000 to 800,000 kcal of energy.
It's worthy of being a capture level 12 ingredient.
Just as Hong Yi was enjoying the Rainbow Fruit.
Outside the Ninth Genesis Courtyard.
The entire Totsuki Culinary Academy was about to turn upside down.
First, naturally, because Hong Yi displayed strength comparable to a Gold-level Gourmet Hunter, crushing the GT robot.
Second, Hong Yi killed Ruiyama Shizuko, the Ninth Seat… no, the former Ten Master.
Although Totsuki Culinary Academy encourages competition, it doesn't encourage murder.
School rules —
Students are forbidden from private fights!
Students are even forbidden from killing each other!
Hong Yi not only killed someone, but also killed Ruiyama Shizuko in front of all the teachers and students of Totsuki Culinary Academy, with the drone broadcasting it live.
Arrogant!
Tyrannical!
Audacious!!
How dare he be so arrogant?
This kind of behavior.
It's vicious!
The impact is too great!
It directly triggered a magnitude 12 earthquake in Totsuki Culinary Academy!!
Anyone with eyes could see that Hong Yi did it on purpose. He killed Ruiyama Shizuko in front of everyone.
He was establishing his dominance.
He was establishing his dominance over the entire Totsuki Culinary Academy!
“It's over, it's over, it's over…”
“Hong-kun, how could you kill Ruiyama Shizuko?”
“Little Bear, what do we do?!”
Aoi Kikuyo hugged her furry teddy bear and squatted on the ground, anxiously scratching her hair.
Erina Nakiri glanced at the giant TV screen, said nothing, and turned around to leave in silence.
“Big… Big Sister?”
Hisako Arato exclaimed, not knowing what Erina Nakiri was going to do, and quickly followed her.
“This freshman has gone crazy, hasn't he?”
“He's too arrogant, he's really too arrogant. He could have dealt with the drone first, but he chose to kill Ruiyama Shizuko while the drone was broadcasting.”
“Hey, let's see how the higher-ups of Totsuki Culinary Academy handle this.”
“Such strong strength, if he wins the Shokugeki, he can become one of the Ten Masters, ranking Ninth Seat, a promising future.”
“Why be so impulsive? It's a pity, it's a pity.”
The teachers and students of Totsuki Culinary Academy, some were lamenting, some were mocking, and some were watching coldly.
Ten Masters' Council.
Kobayashi Rindo, who was eating snacks, stared at her phone in shock, dropping her potato chips without knowing it.
“Ruiyama Shizuko, he… died…”
Subaru Mitsuha's handsome face was pale with fear.
He never imagined that Hong Yi would dare to kill someone, especially in front of the entire school.
“Arrogant!”
“He's too arrogant!”
Tōsuke Megishima took off his knitted hat and clutched it tightly in his hand, saying angrily, “This stinky boy is simply lawless!”
“Sōmei, come on, call the Disciplinary Committee.”
“Arrest this audacious freshman.”
Sōmei Saitō, who had been silent and gloomy the whole time, closed his eyes slightly, hugged his katana, and suddenly stood up.
The chair he was sitting on shattered into powder without a sound.
…
Happy Dragon Boat Festival to everyone.
I just want to complain, it's best to order less takeout in the summer, especially cold noodles and other perishable foods. Food poisoning is too uncomfortable 〒▽〒
