Chapter 1579: Medicine King Makes a move! Fire Dragon Cuisine!
The 'World Shokugeki' between the Shokugeki World and the Sea Star Chef Association reached its fourth round, watched by all.
The theme was Meat!
However, the head chefs for this round were a truly peak duel.
Yukihira Soma VS Zeff!
Although the former had just turned eighteen, he had already traveled various places around the world for nearly three years.
His current cooking skill level in this Shokugeki World was undoubtedly the world's number one.
But this was not his peak yet.
The peak Yukihira Soma was twenty-five years old, as depicted in the three hundred and eighteenth side story chapter of the Canon.
At that time, his cooking skill should have reached this world's ceiling.
As for the latter, he was both the president of the Sea Star Chef Association and the first special grade chef, and he had already initially mastered the ability to make cuisine shine and undergo sublimation, earning him the title of 'Sea Star's First Chef'!
Regarding assistant chefs.
Yukihira Soma only chose his father, Saiba Joichiro, who had mastered the Turning Dragon Pot.
Coupled with the Garuda Blade he himself had mastered, which specialized in handling birds and beasts, it was enough to tackle the theme for this round's Shokugeki.
On Zeff's side, he invited Thatch and Jessica.
Originally, he wanted to find his teacher, Ramsay, but the latter said that dealing with over a dozen 'Dragon Salmon' had already consumed a considerable amount of his energy.
As for Streusen, he was definitely the head chef for the 'Dessert' theme and needed more time to concentrate his focus.
Soon, both sides began heading to the ingredients zone.
However, the direction Yukihira Soma moved in was quite astonishing.
He actually went directly to the Otherworld Meat Area provided by the World Government.
One should know that this was a place that even Azami Nakiri dared not step into.
At most, he would go to the vegetable area to select some vegetables and fruits as a side dish.
"You're going to..."
Saiba Joichiro, following behind his son, asked in astonishment.
"I got some inspiration from the opponent's cuisine in the last round."
Yukihira Soma replied as he walked, "Just as Erina said, the ingredients they used were too good in quality, good enough to compensate for the gap in cooking skill."
"So you plan to use ingredients with a similar quality to prevent the opponent from continuing to use this advantage?"
Saiba Joichiro speculated thoughtfully.
"That's right, if our ingredients have similar quality, then our chances of winning are naturally greater since our cooking skill level is higher!"
Yukihira Soma nodded.
"The problem is that we are not familiar with these Otherworld Ingredients..."
"Then let's abandon complex processing methods and use the simplest method to bring out the maximum flavor of the meat, just like the opponent chose sashimi and sushi to make fish in the last match!"
Yukihira Soma stopped in front of a huge shelf, looking up at the ingredients placed on it as he spoke.
"The simplest cooking method for meat..."
Saiba Joichiro muttered to himself, beginning to understand his son's idea.
"That's right, it's roasting!"
Yukihira Soma looked at the words 'Fire Dragon' on the cards, feeling some excitement.
Yes.
He had sought out the ingredients shelf for Rathalos and Female Rathalos, which originated from the Imperial Arms World.
On it were Rathalos liver, tongue, ribs, meat, and tail, as well as Female Rathalos shoulder meat, wing membrane, belly meat, and their eggs.
In short, any Fire Dragon part that the Chef Association deemed edible and suitable for cooking could be found in this place.
Furthermore, these were all high-grade ingredients certified as six-star or seven-star.
This star rank was somewhat similar to Capture Level.
However, it was based on the Mission Level of the Hunter's Guild.
Because Rathalos and Female Rathalos could generally only be repelled or hunted by hunters of six stars or higher, their ingredients also had this rank.
"Roasting... it can indeed match sashimi, both are the simplest cooking methods, but..."
Saiba Joichiro frowned, reminding his son:
"You should understand very well that different meats require different heat levels. You and I have never roasted meat from them before, how can we guarantee they are cooked and cooked well?"
"That's right, but this is also the biggest reason I only asked you to be my assistant chef!"
Yukihira Soma showed an optimistic smile on his face.
"Because you and I both have the Saiba surname, only we can possibly control the heat level for unfamiliar meat!"
"Isn't this our ability?" He turned to look at his father.
Saiba Joichiro suddenly understood.
Many people asked what their ability was.
After all, looking at their cooking skill strength, it didn't seem like they hadn't reached the level where abilities manifest.
But they also didn't have very obvious ability characteristics.
That was because the ability of the 'Saiba Bloodline' lay in making the chef's basic abilities in all aspects extremely outstanding.
To put it simply, it meant being born with extremely high cooking skill talent.
For example, Knife Skills; the level others might need ten years of practice to reach, Saiba clansmen only need a few months.
This was just the foundation. When their cooking skill reached a certain level.
They could even easily learn the abilities of others, bordering on control.
In other words, their learning ability was super strong!
This talent was called 'Absolute' versatility and adaptability by Saiba Joichiro, or rather, by the Saiba clansmen of past generations!
The versatility had just been explained.
And adaptability naturally referred to the ability to handle unexpected situations during a Shokugeki.
It was this point that gave Yukihira Soma the confidence to control the heat for 'Roast Fire Dragon Meat'.
He planned to roast and judge simultaneously, while also infusing his concept and spirit!
If the Nakiri family's ability was 'God's Tongue'.
Then the Saiba family's ability could probably be called 'God's Body'.
"You're really bold, but it sounds interesting!"
Saiba Joichiro agreed without much hesitation.
In fact, he was also feeling a bit frustrated in his heart.
After all, among their side's head chefs, he was the only one who lost. To be honest, it was truly embarrassing.
Soon, the actions of the father and son attracted discussion from the entire audience.
Among them were many excellent professional chefs.
They couldn't understand how Yukihira Soma dared to use Otherworld Meat he had never cooked before.
And it was Fire Dragon Meat, which they had only heard of in legends?
The key was that this was a 'World Shokugeki' that would determine whether their country became the 'Fourth Special Zone'!
"Hehe, what an energetic young man..."
Zeff smiled as he watched the father and son not far away begin to roast Female Rathalos belly meat.
"Fire Dragon, huh? It can indeed contend with my Sea Kings!"
He then lowered his head to look at the fresh ingredients on the cutting board.
It was Sea Kings meat from Sea Star Mainland,
And it was specified as Sea Kings with a body size reaching a thousand meters.
Of course, it was impossible to send the entire thing; the Chef Association only took the most essential parts.
"Let's begin!"
Zeff said to Thatch and Jessica beside him.
"Okay!"
"Full strength!"
Instantly, the open kitchens on both sides became lively with the activity of the chefs.
A moment later, wisps of food aroma spread through the air.
This caused the audience members present to gradually show expressions of enjoyment.
Charlotte Linlin, sitting on the judging panel, kept swallowing her saliva.
At this moment, in her eyes, above the kitchen where Yukihira Soma and Saiba Joichiro were, the smoke formed a phantasm of a Fire Dragon baring its fangs and claws.
And above the kitchens of Zeff, Thatch, and Jessica, a Sea Kings swimming in white mist appeared.
The two faced off across the air, roaring silently, truly spectacular!
And this was the 'Summit War' between supernatural chefs.
Who would win or lose, no one knew, but everyone was filled with expectation.
Including Im, Stussy, Historia, Esdeath, Teresa, and others aboard the Noah's Ark.
The deliciousness of the previous dishes had successfully piqued their interest.
Especially Im, who had long been looking forward to the 'Medicine King's' dishes!
He just didn't expect the opponent to choose Fire Dragon Meat...
To be honest, he was actually a bit tired of eating this meat.
Of course, the meat of Sea Kings was the same.
Im hoped that the 'Medicine King' would not disappoint him.
