Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World.

"Welcome to Jerram City."

"This is one of the most famous tourist cities in the ancient Ganyu Kingdom."

"It has been listed by authoritative travel websites as one of the top ten cities you must visit in your lifetime. I believe you can find what you've been dreaming of here."

A sightseeing bus was traveling on the wide road.

Inside the bus, a tour guide with a sweet voice, youthful and beautiful appearance, and wearing a light pink uniform was introducing the bus to the passengers.

Lynn, Chopper, and Hyakume, who was wearing sunglasses, sat in the back of the bus, listening quietly to the tour guide's introduction.

"Just now, we entered the territory of the beautiful city of Jeram. Please turn your gaze to the window and enjoy this beautiful view together."

After saying that, the tour guide smiled sweetly, leaned forward, and made a cute gesture, indicating that everyone should look out the window.

Outside the window, a picturesque view unfolds before you.

Jerram is nestled between mountains and the sea, and the entire city seems to have grown naturally from the coastline.

On a series of rolling hills, white buildings are stacked one on top of another, stretching from the foot of the hill all the way to the middle of the hillside.

After driving for a while, the hills disappeared, replaced by a modern city with towering buildings, and further on, the coastline and the azure sea were faintly visible at the horizon.

Where the sea meets the sky, a few white clouds hang low.

"So beautiful," Chopper murmured, peering out the window.

As the sightseeing bus passed through various places, sunshine, sea breeze, white buildings, palm trees... a distinctive coastal city appeared before everyone's eyes.

As Lynn admired the beautiful scenery, the introduction to Jerram City that he had seen earlier came to mind.

The world on which humankind depends for survival consists of six continents, collectively known as the six continents.

Above that, there are countries of all sizes.

Jeram, located in the southwest corner of the ancient Ganyu Kingdom and north of Yokasin, is a coastal city with the world's second longest coastline.

But beneath today's glory lies a history too painful to recall.

This place used to be a barren land, uninhabited.

Later, a group of immigrants came here to make a living and unexpectedly discovered rich natural gas resources underground. Taking advantage of the location, their business grew bigger and bigger, and they accumulated considerable wealth.

They then further explored the local advantages and discovered that the seas here were different from those in other places.

The ocean is home to many creatures that are very rare in other seas, and some are even unique to this sea area.

They are often used as rare ingredients or for other purposes, and sometimes exaggerated and strange seafood products appear, indicating that marine resources are extremely abundant.

In order to better develop marine resources, the locals spared no expense in transforming the area into a large city, attracting countless businesses to settle there.

Over time, Jerram's reputation has grown, earning it the nickname "City of the Sea and Gourmet Food," and attracting tens of millions of tourists every year.

In order to match the style of "tourism, entertainment, relaxation, etc.", there are also a large number of casinos, hotels and other entertainment venues, and carnivals are held regularly.

If someone wants to host a large event, they can submit an application to the municipality, and the approval rate is relatively high. This is why the city is also known as the "Fun City."

Following the tour guide's directions, Lynn and the others got off at the entrance of the largest market area in the area, aboard a sightseeing bus.

The market also has a seaside style, covering a large area with wide streets lined with rows of neat tents on both sides.

Under the tents were small stalls displaying all kinds of seafood.

The roads are paved with gray and white bricks, and the clean and spacious roads are refreshing, which shows the importance the local government attaches to environmental cleanliness.

Chopper was like a child who was curious about everything. He looked around and would sometimes run back to Lynn and tug at her clothes when he saw something new and interesting. He was very excited.

Lynn responded enthusiastically, saying she enjoyed the fun of traveling.

Hyakume-ki, dressed in a black suit and wearing large sunglasses, stood behind Lynn as a competent bodyguard.

Although he could grow eyes on his face, he lacked details such as eyelashes, eyebrows, and eye sockets, making him look strange to the average person. Therefore, Lynn made him wear sunglasses.

Capone continued to work hard at Yorkshire, while Yuki-onna preferred quiet and didn't like to show herself, so only Chopper accompanied him.

The market is filled with all sorts of strange and unusual things, mostly local seafood, which are more eye-catching than those in ordinary seaside cities.

"Huh? Is that a squid?" Chopper, holding a marshmallow, stared in surprise at the giant squid in front of him.

The squid is about the size of a vehicle and is known locally as the "giant car squid."

Judging from its appearance, this squid had died recently and was still very fresh.

This stall specializes in making grilled squid. To attract customers, the vendor simply places the raw materials next to the stall, which inevitably surprises and intrigues any passing tourist.

The vendors also save themselves a lot of trouble; if they receive an order, they simply cut a piece of meat from the giant squid next to them and cook it.

Because the market area in Jeram City has an extremely large daily flow of visitors, vendors don't have to worry about not being able to sell all their squid; they can sell it all quickly every day before it spoils.

By then, a long line had already formed in front of the stall.

Driven by curiosity, Lynn led Chopper to join the queue.

Time passed slowly, and soon they bought the grilled squid skewers.

Each skewer of squid weighs about one pound, or even after grilling, and is worth 20,000 jin of silver.

This amount of money is nothing to him now.

He earned 3 billion jenny from Northra alone, and also took the items from this auction. Although it's inconvenient to sell them in the short term, they're still worth several hundred billion jenny. He'll find an opportunity to sell them little by little later.

In addition, he already had a considerable amount of savings, and Capone's side was also generating a steady stream of money, so he really wasn't short of money to spend right now. He could easily come up with at least several hundred million or even billions of jin.

So he waved his hand and bought fifteen skewers.

Five skewers for each person.

As his strength increased, he also felt that his appetite was growing, and this amount of squid was nothing to him.

Soon, fifteen skewers of specially made grilled squid were freshly made.

The thick squid meat was grilled until the skin was golden brown, and through the cracks on the surface, you could vaguely see that the inside was as white as snow. A unique seafood aroma wafted into the nasal cavity, making people's appetites soar.

Lynn took the first bite, and the rich umami flavor burst on her tongue, as if a variety of seafood were concentrated in one bite.

Although he had eaten the delicious food that Toriko had given him a few times, he was not so bad as to look down on other foods.

In his opinion, even if this grilled squid couldn't compare to the delicacies Toriko had given him, it was still a good dish with its own unique flavor, and he devoured it all in no time.

After he entered Jeram's territory, a new set of characteristics appeared in his mind.

This made him even more excited to see if the characteristic bar here would give rise to cards related to food.
