Infinite Reincarnation: I am the Monster.

Chapter 246 Gourmet Power

In the foggy forest, a huge wild boar was running wildly, but a golden gas shot out from the fog and pierced through the head of the giant wild boar, which was nearly three meters in size.

The wild boar grunted twice and then fell to the ground, trembling, with smelly blood flowing all over the ground.

Bai Cangshu came closer with a frown. There was a flash of light in his hand, and a bright kitchen knife appeared in his hand. Just looking at the blade pattern, this knife was more beautiful than many famous swordsmen's swords.

However, Bai Cangshu did not see the [Lucky Phoenix Pattern] appear on the blade. In the setting of Chung Hakuban, these legendary kitchen utensils actually have a setting similar to the famous sword recognizing its master. In the hands of the chosen heir, a special Lucky Phoenix pattern will appear on the blade.

Tsk, in this space where power is everything, this kind of thing still exists.

puff~
Bai Cangzhu has neither any cooking skills nor any advanced knife skills.

But his knife was just as fast and accurate. After a bright white flash of the knife, one of the huge wild boar's hind legs was cut off.

He did not do anything but used this special kitchen utensil to cut a thin slice from the hind leg. In an instant, even though no auspicious phoenix pattern appeared, the power of the knife still took effect.

The meat was purified instantly, as if it had been cleaned repeatedly many times, and there was no possibility of any bacteria existing in the meat.

Bai Cangzhu put the meat slice into his mouth. The fishy smell was not strong, and the smell of blood seemed to be much lighter as well.

[You ate uncooked animal meat. Food grade: low. Deliciousness grade: very low]

[Bio-enhancement and gourmet cells have not been improved]

[Milestone: Gourmet did not receive any bonus]

Bai Cangzhu very ungracefully spat out the wild boar meat in his mouth and looked at the clean kitchen utensils in his hand with an expressionless face.

It seems that the food power is not as simple as I thought. It is not the type that can gain benefits by eating anything.

Moreover, with his almost non-existent cooking skills, even with this "legendary kitchen utensil", the "wild boar sashimi" he made did not even meet the "gourmet" requirements of the [Gourmet] milestone.

The milestone he specially replaced did not gain any bonus status.

Yes, Bai Cangshu believed that with such a distorted atmosphere of extreme desire for power, the requirements for the quality of ingredients must be higher than the so-called cooking skills.

After all, the act of hunting powerful creatures is more in line with the space's needs for reincarnations.

So in his imagination, he could eat all over the world with a Garuda knife, based on the theory that everything could be used as sashimi.

I didn’t expect that the first time I cooked it I would fail.

This made Bai Cangshu look gloomy, which was rare for him. He carried the huge wild boar back to the campfire effortlessly.

When Catherine saw Tao Paibai's expression, she thought that the other party knew that she had been hypnotized by Uchiha Shisui to reveal the information. Her face turned pale instantly, and her heart beat faster for a moment. She didn't know whether she should run away.

On the contrary, Ping Zhonghua, who knew nothing, looked at the kitchen knife in Bai Cangshu's hand and the huge wild boar, thought for a moment and took the initiative to speak
"Are you... going to cook this prey?"

Bai Cangshu was in a bad mood and didn't bother to pay attention to the other party. He was thinking, if Uchiha Shisui brought the tailed beast back at this time, should he eat it or not.

If he couldn't improve his gourmet cells, then eating some tailed beast meat would be of no benefit to him. He didn't expect to gain the Nine-Tails' chakra by eating its meat like Kinkaku and Ginkaku did.

Ping Zhonghua and his companions had never eaten well to begin with. Due to the harsh environment of the Rain Country and the towns that were almost completely destroyed by the war, not many people gathered there, and food was in short supply.

She hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and grabbed the knife in Bai Cangshu's hand.

"Let me do it, I can cook..."

Uchiha Itachi, whose bones were still broken, was lying on a stone. His meridians had also suffered extensive damage. He couldn't even refine chakra, and his Sharingan couldn't be opened, but he still had a calm expression and was constantly thinking.

He could also hear the conversation between the people below. He was collecting as much information about Tao Baibai as possible. He wanted to judge how much truth and falsehood were in what this person had said to him before.

The Uchiha clan members often become extreme and irritable because of their overly strong emotions, which is both the source of their power and the source of their troubles. The reason why Uchiha Itachi is completely different from other clan members in Shisui's eyes is that he is always thinking and hides most of his emotions in his heart.

But Uchiha Itachi himself did not realize that the reason why he kept thinking about Tao Paibai's words was because he was also attracted by the content of Tao Paibai's words.

If we think about this world only from the perspective of ninjas, the so-called "peace" and "hatred" are actually unsolvable issues. Wars will always break out, and hatred will accumulate from generation to generation and will never end.

Ninjas like Shisui and Itachi, their thinking always stays on idealized expectations. Shisui expects Itachi to change everything and entrusts his eyes to Itachi, but Itachi can't solve anything in the end. He chooses to stand completely on the side of the village and slaughters his relatives to save his brother's life.

However, Tao Paibai's words gave Itachi another way of thinking, allowing him to think beyond Konoha Village, beyond the Land of Fire, and even beyond the ninja world.

If all the wars in this world are caused by interests, then whose interests are these interests...

Uchiha Itachi seemed to have found a breakthrough, a point where all the hatred could not be attributed to, but now it seemed that it could all be attributed to the word "interest", or more intuitively, it could be attributed to the owners of those interests.

The daimyo and nobles who obeyed the Ninja Era, the rulers of those countries...

This was a terrifying thought, but it allowed Uchiha Itachi to see an unprecedented [capacity].

Puff~
Fat dripped into the flame, crackling, and the smell of meat instantly came to the nose. Although there was no seasoning, the wild boar meat that had been processed by the Garuda knife still exuded a fatty smell over the flame.

Itachi Uchiha was also shaken from his thoughts as his stomach began to growl.

[You ate a piece of carefully processed barbecued meat. Ingredient level: low. Deliciousness level: average]

[Gourmet cells have grown slightly, currently: Lv0 (5/100)]

[Milestone·Gourmet Trigger, you get a temporary benefit·Enhanced Hearing]

Bai Cangshu raised his eyebrows, and his gloomy expression disappeared. He looked at Ping Zhonghua.

"As expected, no matter how weak a guy is, he has his own talents."

Catherine also discovered that this character's cooking skills were pretty good, but she didn't say anything. She just felt that Tao Baibai was really scary, and just a little emotion would make her feel afraid.

Staying around such a person was like being around a wild beast. There was no sense of security at all. She also completely gave up the thought of wanting to rely on him.

Tao Baibai is now quite famous among the low-level reincarnations in the space, and many reincarnations want to join him or team up with him.

But Catherine had already understood by now that this kind of guy most likely would not have a team. If he did, it would definitely be a very deformed team that was completely controlled by him. Except for himself, everyone else was like a tool.

Bai Cangshu first asked Ping Zhonghua about the key points of barbecue in great detail, and then asked Catherine to help Uchiha Itachi up and heal him.

Although he is not good at cooking, he actually has a very good grasp of people's hearts.

Uchiha Itachi was deliberately left aside and allowed to think. When the body cannot move and only the brain can think, people will be immersed in that thinking mode, which is what others say, it is easy to get stuck in a dead end.

His theory is not sound, but Bai Cangshu himself has no intention of changing the world. He is not a real savior, he is just exerting stronger emotions.

Then let those who are already unable to bear the torture of this world, follow him and make this world... feel the pain.

[Special Trial: Supreme Benevolence and Supreme Kindness, progress update, currently: 4/7]

He saw the notification refresh and knew that he would soon be able to get rid of this encumbrance and go out to stir up trouble. Oh, now he was no longer a complete encumbrance, as the other party at least mastered some cooking skills.

Bai Cangshu knew that the characters he was going to encounter next were not as kind as Shisui, and he had to wait until this mission was completed before he could move forward steadily.

Suddenly, Bai Cangshu's ears moved and he looked towards the distance. Several figures in black robes appeared silently.
