Chapter 1580: No One Understands Dessert Better Than Me!
Shokugeki World.
Inside the Tokyo Dome venue,
Under a tense atmosphere, the two chefs, Yukihira Soma and Zeff, representing their sides,
Completed their respective dishes at the thirty-fifth and forty-first minutes.
Well-trained waiters stepped forward, bringing the 'Fire Dragon Roast Meat' that was completed first, to the seven judges and the opposing head chef.
"Roast Meat cooked purely by cooking skill and feeling without any experience..." Zeff slightly frowned, looking at the covered dish.
Honestly, if it were him, he definitely wouldn't dare to mess around like this.
"Aren't you afraid of failure, kid?" Zeff raised his eyes to look at Yukihira Soma in the opposite kitchen.
"I believe that precisely because there's a possibility of failure, infinite possibility slumbers within dishes!" Yukihira Soma wore a bright smile, and at the same time raised his right hand, smiling, "おあがりよ!" (Please enjoy!)
Zeff curled his lip, "Hmph, I hope it's not just pretty words."
Then, under the gaze of the people around him, he gently lifted the shimmering silver lid.
【Buzz——————】
In an instant, dazzling crimson fire light, like a blooming nuclear explosion, poured out from the gap, engulfing this entire side of the kitchen.
"This! This is!!" Zeff, Thatch, Jessica, Streusen, and Ramsay were all startled, their eyes trembled.
At the same time.
Seven intense fire lights also burst forth from the judging panel.
The heat, light, and the fragrance of the Roast Meat contained within completely exploded, forming phantasms of roaring Fire Dragons in the air.
Such a spectacular sight left the entire audience, as well as the tens of billions of viewers from all walks of life in front of the screen, dumbfounded.
This... this... what the hell is this, food?!
Yukihira Soma crossed his arms over his chest, a smile on his face. No matter when, he was full of confidence in his cooking.
Crucially, being able to personally cook real dragon meat filled him with heartfelt pleasure.
Not long after, all the phantasms dissipated.
A piece of 'Fire Dragon Roast Meat' on the plate, shimmering, with a golden-yellow sauce drizzled on the surface, and emitting waves of red light like breathing, immediately appeared before everyone's eyes.

It looked very simple, without any extra side dish, but no one cared about that.
Charlotte Linlin, Nakiri Mana, Zeff, and others immediately picked up their knives and forks, cut the meat, and ate it...
The next second.
Everyone's pupils trembled violently. The unimaginable deliciousness was erupting in their mouths, fiercely impacting their taste buds and minds...
"Ahhhhhh!"
"What kind of stimulation is this? The texture far surpasses the highest level beef!"
"It's hot, so hot, God, please let me stay in this moment forever!"
"So this sauce was egg liquid? Fire Dragon egg liquid? And a little bit of just the right amount of mango flavor!"
In their mindscape, the clothing on their bodies had long been burned away by the dragon fire that ignited.
One by one, they were naked, enveloped in flames, but their faces were full of uncontrollable happy smiles.
Only Charlotte Linlin's reaction was relatively normal.
She just laughed and praised its deliciousness repeatedly, looking adorable and in a good mood.
"Mamamama~, I must let Ace and Yamato try it too, it's really delicious!"
It was just that she didn't quite understand. When she was in the Imperial Arms World before.
She had clearly roasted several dragons herself, but the taste wasn't this amazing.
As for any special cooking skill,
She had watched Yukihira Soma and Saiba Joichiro's cooking process the entire time.
There seemed to be nothing special about it; they were also simply roasting it on a rack.
It was truly amazing...
Of course, she didn't forget to use Haki to suppress the mental fluctuation released from Nakiri Mana's body.
Otherwise, not only the six judges including her, but probably even the thousands of audience members behind would collectively strip naked.
It was truly because the stimulation this dish brought to Nakiri Mana at this moment was too intense.
And on Nakiri Erina's side.
Although she really wanted to taste Yukihira Soma's dish immediately, she endured it under her father's persuasion.
After all, she also didn't want to expose her perfect physique in this place, making extremely shameful sounds, and expressions that were too eighteen-plus.
Fortunately, the existence of the Mystic Storage could perfectly preserve the food's flavor.
There was no need to worry about the quality being affected by eating it later.
"I lost..." Zeff said, putting down his knife and fork with a heavy heart.
Although the judges hadn't eaten their dishes yet,
As the head chef, he had already sensed the gap.
Just as Yukihira Soma said before, Zeff and their biggest advantage was being more familiar with higher quality ingredients, and the fundamentals brought by superhuman physical ability.
Now that the former used dragon meat and processed it perfectly, there was naturally no advantage in this regard.
As for the physical ability fundamentals,
Honestly, this only stands out when the quantity of dishes reaches a certain degree.
For example, if both sides were asked to make a hundred dishes within fifty minutes,
Then Yukihira Soma would be exhausted to death and unable to do it, but Zeff could easily complete it.
But now, they only needed to make thirteen servings, and it was a dish like 'Roast Meat' that could be plated afterward.
The most crucial point was that Yukihira Soma used his full strength for 'Adding Potent Ingredients' this time.
This caused the Degree of Sublimation of the dishes to reach a height that Zeff could not imagine.
This was also the reason why the phantasm was so exaggerated when the lid was lifted earlier.
Zeff was only just scratching the surface in this area.
How could he compare with the masterful Yukihira Soma?
As expected.
When Charlotte Linlin, Nakiri Mana, and others tasted Zeff's Sea King Meat dish, they all said it was very delicious, but it was clearly not as good as the previous Dragon Meat dish.
The gap in special effect was also huge. Zeff's dish only had a layer of blue water light flowing gently on the surface like sea waves; there was no phenomenon of radiating radiance at all.
This showed that his 'Adding Potent Ingredients' ability was not strong enough!
Finally, with a score of seven to zero, Yukihira Soma obtained victory in this Shokugeki.
In an instant, the entire venue erupted in thunderous applause, and cheers rose one after another.
Thus, only Ramsay and Streusen from the Sea Star Chef Association could continue to serve as head chefs.
And on the 'WGO' side of the Shokugeki World, only Saiba Joichiro was eliminated.
According to the rules, if all five chefs from one side are defeated, the match can end.
Thirty minutes of rest time quickly passed.
The fifth round of Shokugeki, centered around 'Dessert', began.
The head chefs for both sides this time were Asahi Nakiri and Streusen.
Actually, Yukihira Soma could have continued to serve as head chef, but he still wanted to give Asahi Nakiri an opportunity to perform.
But the result was beyond their expectation.
Asahi Nakiri, whose strength was second only to Yukihira Soma, possessed the 'Crossing Blades' ability, and borrowed various special cooking utensils from numerous 'Midnight Chefs',
He actually lost to that short-statured, somewhat comical-looking, and strangely named elderly chef, Streusen!
Crucially, the 'Seven-Colored Cream Glutinous Rice Cake' made by the opponent was indeed superior to the 'Golden Fire Dragon Egg Tart' carefully prepared by Asahi Nakiri.
What Yukihira Soma and the others didn't know was that the ingredients Streusen used this time were somewhat special.
They were not natural ingredients produced from a certain world, but were created by Devil Fruit users.
For example, the cream was provided by Charlotte Linlin's fifth son, Charlotte Opera.
The glutinous rice was provided by her second son, Charlotte Katakuri.
The candy that made up the seven colors was provided by her eldest son, Perospero.
This made their flavor even more unique.
Of course.
Streusen's own strength in making dessert was extremely formidable.
This was a specialty honed over several decades under Charlotte Linlin's high pressure.
Honestly, even including the Shokugeki World, he dared to say...
No one understands dessert better than him!
