Crossover Anime: Starting with a Fusion of Master Chef, a Top-Tier Master Chef

Erina practically spat out the words through gritted teeth.

353 Lin Youshu smiled and said, "It's like this, I'm preparing to participate in the World Culinary Competition, and my team is currently short two people. I hope you and your secretary can help me join them."

"Um?!"

Erina Nakiri, who had just been furious, froze upon hearing this.

World Culinary Competition?

Are you sure it's the one I know?

She went to participate in the TEBLE Chef Championship partly because she was aiming for a spot in this world culinary competition, but unexpectedly, Hayashi Yuki successfully snatched it away.

It annoyed her for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Lin Youshu called to invite her to join the team and participate in the World Culinary Competition.

Is this a condition, or a free lunch?

Erina couldn't quite figure out what this guy was thinking.

……

wrong!

There must be a conspiracy involved!

Erina became wary: "Why should I join your team?"

"Because your secretary is in my hands!"

Lin Youshu responded with a smile.

"you--"

Erina's anger, which had just subsided, returned. Suppressing her rage, she said, "Change the terms!"

Lin Youshu shrugged: "But that's all I'm looking for. I'm not interested in anything else."

"Where's the money?"

"I'm not short of money now."

Erina said coldly, "I can agree to any other conditions, but not this one. Being teammates with someone like you only disgusts me!"

"Tsk, what a cold-blooded woman."

Lin Youshu wasn't angry about it and still had a smile on his face: "But are you sure you really don't want to come?"

Erina angrily retorted, "Even if I die, I won't let you have your way!"

Depend on!

It makes me sound like a bully who forces women into prostitution.

Lin Youshu remained silent.

Then he raised an eyebrow: "Actually, what I wanted to say was that Alice has also joined my team. With my skills, we can win at least one championship, maybe even more. When that happens, wouldn't her achievements in cooking surpass those of you, her older cousin?"

Alice?!

Upon hearing this, Erina Nakiri's pupils shrank instinctively.

Although she and Alice are cousins, Alice has always regarded her as a rival since childhood, and is determined to surpass her and is unwilling to become her background.

I never expected to join Lin Youshu's team...

Is it true or false?

Where did you meet Alice?

Erina narrowed her eyes slightly, her tone indifferent.

"I had a food battle with Mizuryūin, and you know how that went. Then I casually invited her to join my team and see a wider world with me. She's obviously much smarter than you, and she readily agreed."

Lin Youshu said with a smile.

In the end, they didn't forget to put one down while praising the other, which made Erina clench her little fists in anger.

but……

Lin Youshu's words made her frown.

While Alice's talent may not be as exaggerated as the "God Tongue," her achievements in molecular gastronomy are unparalleled.

If she were to win a world championship, even just one event, her own position would face an unprecedented challenge!

　What to do about (aidb)?

Erina hesitated; her previously firm resolve began to waver.

……

"You didn't need to be so hostile towards me."

Lin Youshu continued, "Under those circumstances, I couldn't possibly agree to your mother's request in public, could I? Otherwise, wouldn't I seem vain? Besides, was my reason for refusing wrong? Miss Erina, please ask yourself, how many people can tolerate your temper and personality? Don't your classmates keep their distance from you?"

Erina wanted to retort angrily, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say.

Because Lin Youshu is right.

Apart from a very limited number of people, such as Hisako Shinto, most others turn pale at the mere mention of her name.

Even Hisako respected her more than she liked her.

Although she always felt that there was nothing wrong with others keeping their distance.

In her eyes, anyone who cannot produce truly beautiful and rational works does not deserve her approval.

"You're probably thinking that people who can't make truly delicious food don't deserve the approval of the God Tongue, right?"

Lin Youshu chuckled: "But have you ever thought that delicious food is really the only standard for measuring a chef's success? Don't ordinary chefs who aren't the most talented but still stick to their dreams and bring delicious food to everyone deserve respect?"

"..."

Erina remained silent, her anger rising within her.

This guy is so annoying!

What right do you have to criticize her?

"I know the Tongue of God is powerful, but your arrogance will become an obstacle to your becoming even stronger!"

The smile on Lin Youshu's face gradually disappeared, and his tone became more indifferent.

Erina couldn't help but frown.

Lin Youshu continued, "Actually, sometimes I envy you. You're a beautiful, privileged girl with exceptional talent, born at a peak that most people can only dream of. You have every right to be proud. But these advantages shouldn't be a reason for you to be so arrogant towards others!"

“All men are created equal. You are a rich heiress and I am a commoner, but that should not be a reason for you to look down on me, let alone feel that I am not worthy to stand on the same level as you.”

"enough!!!"

Erina interrupted angrily.

She was growing to hate this guy more and more.

Lin Youshu chuckled: "I sincerely hope you can learn how to respect others, including your opponents. Just as your mother, Lady Nakiri Managi, said, what you lack is experience; you need to see a broader stage. Instead of being confined to this small world of Japan during the prime of your life. And I can provide just such an opportunity!"

"Therefore, I sincerely hope that you can join our team and go with us to the World Championship to have the ultimate food battle with top culinary geniuses from all over the world!"

"Isn't this much more interesting than staying in Totsuki as the chief?!"

a long time.

Finally, a sentence came from the other end of the phone.

"you win."

His tone was one of relief.

Upon hearing this, Lin Youshu's face instantly lit up with a smile.

(The editor gave me a small recommendation, I'm so grateful! By the way, could you please help me with the data? If you have any flowers or votes, could you please vote for me? The World Championship storyline is about to begin!)

Chapter Ninety-Seven: The First Full-Team Training Session – A Fight Broke Out!

"Welcome to the Forward Team!"

Lin Youshu smiled as he looked at the beautiful girls in front of him: "From today onwards, we are teammates participating in the World Culinary Competition!"

He is currently at a chef training base under Nakiri International, which he has borrowed for team training.

Yes, after gathering all five members, the team called "The Advancers" was born in his hands!

The word "forward" represents his determination in cooking, and also contains his expectations for himself and others.

Always move forward and forge ahead!

……

"Wait a moment!"

Alice Nakiri glared at Yuuki Hayashi with hostility: "You didn't tell me this woman would be joining us."

She glanced sideways at the blonde beauty next to her and the other person's secretary.

Erina Nakiri smiled meaningfully: "What? Didn't he tell you? Looks like your status in the team isn't that great!"

"Ah!"

Alice's beak curved upwards, but her eyes turned cold.

From childhood to adulthood, outsiders only noticed Erina Nakiri, never giving Alice Nakiri a second glance.

For this reason, she went to Northern Europe for ten years to study molecular gastronomy in the research institute established by her father. With her talent and hard work, she won various honors and championship trophies, and only then did she feel that the shadow that had been hanging over her since childhood was gradually fading away.

however!

Upon entering Totsuki Culinary Academy, she discovered that she still couldn't defeat Erina Nakiri.

In fact, the difference in culinary skills between the two sides is already very small.

However, the talent bonus of the God Tongue is too outrageous, which is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. The gap cannot be bridged by knowledge reserves and hard work.

Lin Youshu shrugged: "It's too late now, but it's not too late to find out. By the way, I advise you all to put aside your past grudges and animosities. We're teammates now, you know? We all have only one common goal: the championship! And the championship in all events!"

Erina scoffed, "Can you stop with your unrealistic fantasies? This is the World Championship! It's full of outstanding graduates from the former Elite Ten who came from Totsuki Academy! Do you think we can beat them?"
