Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 434: Seiya shows off his ultimate knife skills!
"That's enough, that's enough. These fish are enough for both of our groups to cook."

Looking at the bucket full of stream fish, Ryoko and Tadokoro Megumi looked at Seiya with admiration.

They also didn't expect that Seiya was not only an excellent cook, but also had excellent physical abilities.

The difficulty of the topic given by Qian Hinatako this time is not mainly the Japanese-style cuisine, but the additional condition of obtaining ingredients from nature.

Although the entire Yuanyue Resort is rich in resources, since it is restricted by nature, it is naturally impossible to use the ingredients raised and grown in the Yuanyue Resort.

The shorter the time it takes to collect ingredients, the more time they will have to cook the dishes. This is probably why Qian Hinatako asked them to form a team.

After all, it is not an easy task for one person to find suitable ingredients from nature and cook them within the specified time.

At this moment, Ryoko also sincerely believed that her previous decision to find Seiya as a partner was correct.

Originally, she just saw that Seiya had no partner, and out of the idea of ​​taking care of her friend, she took the initiative to find Seiya to team up, but she didn't expect that in the end, she would be the one who was carried away.

"You can go ahead with these fish. I just found another good thing in this stream when I was fishing.

So I have changed my mind and no longer plan to use stream fish as the main ingredient."

After hearing what Seiya said, Soma Yukihira and the others were stunned for a moment. He originally wanted to ask Seiya if he needed help, but when he thought of the physical ability that Seiya had just demonstrated, he immediately chose to shut up.

"I've already decided on the dishes I'm going to make. Since you don't need any help, we'll leave first."

Although Soma Yukihira was also curious about what good ingredients Seiya had found, time was limited. In addition to passing the assessment, he also had to compete in a food battle with others.

He had already thought of the dishes he wanted to make, and he even snatched the persimmon seeds from the lecturer's hand as snacks.

It was definitely not possible to change the dishes at the last minute, so after thanking Seiya and the others, he and Tadokoro Megumi hurriedly packed up their bags and ran away.

However, Sakaki Ryoko, who is Seiya's partner, is very curious about what the good things Seiya is talking about, so she also came over at this moment.

However, when she took a closer look at the so-called "good stuff" in Seiya's hand, the expectant expression on her face instantly turned into a bitter face.

"What you call a good thing, don't you mean the crab in your hand..."

That's right, what Seiya was holding in his hand at the moment was a small crab with an ugly wrinkled shell.

Compared to the hairy crabs in lakes and rivers or various crabs in the sea, there are also river crabs in streams. However, due to their small size, this type of crab is generally not very popular.

"This kind of wild river crab, if cooked properly, is also very delicious."

After hearing what Seiya said, Ryoko reached out to take the crab from his hand, but she soon discovered that the crab in her hand was not only small, but also ugly.

“The river crabs in the stream are delicious, yes, but these crabs are too small. Not only do they have little meat, but the appearance of this crab is also... Is this kind of crab really better than those stream fish just now?

While there is still time, why don't we catch some more fish?"

Initially, Ryoko thought the crabs Seiya had just caught were unique, but she soon discovered that the crabs constantly being dumped into her bucket were small and unattractive. "These crabs aren't bad, they're just recently molting, so they look wrinkled."

It’s crab molting season here, and the dish I want to make requires exactly this type of crab.”

After hearing Seiya's explanation, Ryoko quickly picked up a crab from the bucket and pressed it with her fingers. She soon discovered that the crab's shell, which should have been very hard, was actually quite soft.

But even so, Ryoko was still a little confused. What kind of dish was Seiya planning to make that he had to specially select this kind of crab?

Crabs are not like stream fish. Although they are quite flexible in the water, they are obviously much easier to catch than stream fish.

So when Seiya was keen on catching crabs, Ryoko also helped catch a lot.

Some Totsuki students who didn't catch any fish were also inspired when they saw Seiya and his friends catching crabs. They thought that since they couldn't catch any fish, they could probably catch some crabs.

But when they caught the crabs, they found that they were not only very small, but also soft-shell crabs in the molting period, so they threw them away with disgust.

Obviously, in their opinion, even if they caught such crabs and used them as ingredients to cook dishes, they would definitely not pass the test.

"Ryoko, since you're good at fermented dishes, can I let you take care of the dipping sauce and miso soup?"

When Seiya, Ryoko and the others returned to the cooking classroom carrying a bucket of crabs, Soma Yukihira and Takumi, who was competing with him in a food battle, had already started cooking.

In addition to crabs, they also collected some wild vegetables and mushrooms on the way back and made a side dish clear soup, which was not a difficult task for Ryoko.

But the point is that Ryoko is now very curious about how Seiya will deal with those small but soft-shelled crabs.

"I see, it's a crab..."

In fact, Ryoko is not the only one who is paying attention to Seiya at this moment.

Soma Yukihira and the lecturer Hinata Inui also turned their gazes towards Seiya.

Soma Yukihira will look at Seiya, on the one hand because he is curious about what "good stuff" Seiya found by the river, and on the other hand, he is very competitive. Although the target of this food battle is the yellow-haired guy named Ketami, he also regards Seiya as a potential opponent.

I had lost to Seiya so many times before, but I never had a chance to get back at him.

Since coming to Totsuki, Soma Yukihira can feel that his level has improved a lot. Now that the opportunity is rare, he naturally has to use his own cooking to defeat Seiya and Kotami.

As for why Inui Hinatako pays attention to Seiya, the reason is even simpler. She is also very curious about what kind of dishes Seiya can serve, as he is a young man who dares to refute Senior Shinomiya and is valued by Senior Dojima and Commander-in-Chief Totsuki.

When Seiya took the crab to the chopping board for the first time, everyone looked normal. But when Seiya used a sharp knife to dismember the crab in an instant and picked out all the crab meat and crab roe from the legs in just a few moments, everyone was stunned.

Removing crab meat and crab roe is not a big deal in itself, and even many novice kitchen helpers can do it easily.

But the point now is that Seiya's speed is too fast!
