Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　"

　Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri were internally ranting, but their faces remained impassive as they looked at Shiro Awakening, who was wearing an apron.

　"I should have thought of that sooner. Mixing different fruits together can make the flavor richer, and mixing different vegetables together can make a vegetable salad. If that's the case, why can't we narrow down the categories and extract the advantages of the same type of ingredients to cook dishes?"

　Bai Yuan muttered to himself, his eyes growing brighter and brighter, as if he had realized something. He then walked to an empty kitchen counter.

　"You must have some extra fish here, right?"

　Turning his gaze to Inukai Nobuo, Hakubuchi asked.

　"Yes, would you like me to cook something?"

　"That's right, find me some sea fish."

　Bai Yuan gave an order, then lined up the Seven Star Blades behind him, and their movements attracted the attention of the other chefs in the kitchen.

　Only a few people know what happened in the courtyard yesterday.

　To protect the Nakiri family's reputation, the news was strictly kept under wraps by Nakiri Senzaemon, so the people in the kitchen were unaware of Hakugen's strength.

　But judging from the respect that Miss Erina and Miss Alice show him, he must be quite powerful.

　What kind of dishes will these chefs, cooking in their kitchen right now, produce? Are they just for show or are they truly skilled?!

　This is the thought in everyone's mind.

　"The fish are here! These are fresh sea fish delivered this morning. There's also fresh seafood: abalone, scallops, oysters, squid, octopus, and more..."

　The sound grew louder as it approached. Bai Yuan looked up and saw Inukai Nobuo dragging a plastic box from a distance.

　Upon closer inspection, you can see many lively, fresh sea fish, as well as a variety of other seafood.

　"Good energy."

　Looking at the fish still blowing bubbles in the tank, Bai Yuan couldn't help but nod in praise. Then, he gently tapped the counter, and the Seven Star Knife on the table immediately flew up. Then, everyone saw that the fish was quickly cleaned and the bones were completely removed. Only a few pieces of fish meat were left in front of Bai Yuan.

　"call..."

　Looking at the white, tender fish meat in front of him, with all the bones removed, Bai Yuan let out a long sigh of relief. Then he took a deep breath and began the next step of cooking.

　"Arhat Crystal Slash!"

　Bai Yuan gave a low shout, and the dish in front of him was visibly sliced ​​into thin slices, which then flew to a plate that had been prepared beforehand.

　"So thin."

　Looking at the fish slices as thin as cicada wings in front of him, the chef who was secretly watching him exclaimed in surprise, and then took two steps forward, wanting to take a closer look.

　However, before they could get close, they saw their elderly faces in the flying fish slices and immediately showed a look of surprise.

　"This...this fish fillet is reflecting our faces!?"

　"What amazing knife skills!"

　In less than a minute, thanks to Bai Yuan's amazing skills, the plate that was originally empty was now completely full.

　"Come and try it, our secret-recipe three-fish slices."

　As Bai Yuan spoke, he cooked garlic, bean paste, peanut butter, and peanut oil together to make a sauce.

　Prepare shredded white radish, sliced ​​yellow star fruit, shredded red chili peppers, etc., and place them on a large bamboo plate for later use. After the sauce is cooked, mix it with the other ingredients.

　While stirring the sauce with chopsticks, he approached Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri, whose faces were filled with anticipation.

　Bai Yuan poured the prepared sauce over the fish slices, mixing it with the sauce. Instantly, golden light appeared on the surface, making it look incredibly dazzling.

　"Sansheng Fish Slices? It looks like the most ordinary kind of sashimi. Why did Teacher Baiyuan call it that?"

　Looking at the shimmering, three-piece fish slices in front of me.

　The thought crossed Erina Nakiri's mind. She looked up and saw Shirabuchi's slightly excited face.

　"This... could this be the legendary Radiant Cuisine? A dish that only a top-tier seven-star chef can handle and create, and this kid actually managed to make it!"

　Swallowing hard, Inukai Nobuo muttered to himself, which attracted the attention of those around him, drawing them closer to the area where they had been observing.

　When they saw the dish that was constantly emitting a flowing light, their calm expressions immediately crumbled, turning into expressions of horror.

　"How is that possible? Let alone a top-tier seven-star, even a top-tier one requires a lot of accumulation to reach!"

　We've been cooking here for over a decade, and our skills are only at the first-class chef level, far from being top-tier. How can we be inferior to someone...?"

　Some people said in disbelief, because Bai Yuan looked too young. Even the geniuses of Totsuki Academy couldn't possibly become a top-level chef at this age!

　"Teacher Bai Yuan is not someone you can question. Go back to your work, there are people waiting to eat, stop crowding around here!"

　Erina Nakiri said sternly, trying to get the chefs who were watching to go back, but they saw that their eyes were becoming more and more obsessed, like wolves that had spotted their prey.

　"Miss Erina, we've never tasted a special seven-star dish before. Could you please let us have a bite? That would make our lives worthwhile!"

　Swallowing hard, the slender man spoke obsequiously to Erina Nakiri, his gaze never leaving the dish on the counter.

　"Don't say"

　"Yes, we've tasted it. We've cooked these dishes for most of our lives, and we've never even seen them before. Let us watch you eat them."

　The female chef next to them felt that the thin man was being a bit too presumptuous, so she lowered her expectations and just wanted to watch them finish their meal.

　"I really want to eat it..."

　"I can't take it anymore! Don't grab my clothes, let me have a bite!"

　"Ahhh! Please, just let me have a bite! I'll do anything! You can do whatever you want to me!"

　Various sounds arose, and a female chef even lifted up her trousers, grabbed Bai Yuan's hand and was about to push it inside, but Erina slapped her away in time.

　At this moment, the girl's brows furrowed deeply.

　Because the flavor of the three-fish slices is mild, it didn't initially drive the people at the scene crazy. Aside from being shocked, everyone was able to remain relatively rational.

　But as the sauce spread, the flavor of the three-fish fillets was brought out from the inside out, filling the air, and the young chefs went crazy!

　However, compared to younger chefs, older chefs are slightly more resistant to delicious food, but when they look at the dishes in front of them and the exquisite aroma wafting in the air, they also look longing.

　"you..."

　"Come on up and have a taste. I can make as much as you want, as long as you have the ingredients."

　Stopping Erina Nakiri, who was frowning and about to say something, Shirabuchi generously served the dishes to them.

　As a chef who has worked diligently at the Nakiri family for over ten years, and also the source of inspiration for this innovation, he felt it was necessary to do something.

　Of course, more importantly, he needs tasters. As the saying goes, everyone has their own taste, and he needs to improve his dishes based on the tastes that the general public likes!

　"this..."

　As soon as Bai Yuan finished speaking, someone stood in front of the plate. Just as they picked up a slice of sashimi with their chopsticks, they were pulled away by the people behind them.

　However, before leaving, he still managed to put the food into his mouth.

　"I see, I see! I never imagined such a clever idea could come about! It has given the world flavors and textures that shouldn't exist in the first place!"

　A chef with slightly graying eyebrows shouted. He was the head chef of this kitchen, and had been working there for over fifty years. He was a contemporary of Senzaemon Nakiri, and his skills had long since reached the Special Grade Three.

　However, at this moment he had completely lost his usual composure, laughing and crying at the same time, and praising the dish in front of him very highly.

　"The difficulty lies not in layering the three types of fish slices together, but in slicing them into extremely thin slices so that the texture of the three slices layered together is the same as that of a single slice!"

　One of the chefs, who had a keen palate, remarked that she too had discerned the subtlety of the dish, and a look of astonishment crossed her face.

　"This dish has turned everyone into this state; what kind of magic does it possess?!"

　Looking at the people around her, Erina Nakiri had this thought in her mind, then picked up a piece of sashimi, put it in her mouth, and closed her eyes.

　Beside her, Alice Nakiri was not to be outdone.

　The flavor of the sashimi spreads throughout your mouth as soon as it enters your mouth.

　Salmon is rich in oil, and its unique sweetness fills the mouth after you put it in your mouth. Sea bream, with its firm and delicate flesh, adds a touch of elasticity and texture to this sashimi. The addition of squid brings a completely new flavor to the sashimi. Its texture is crisper and contrasts sharply with the tenderness of salmon and sea bream.

　This is their unique flavor; each one is a top-quality ingredient for making sashimi, and combining them creates a new sensation.

　The natural ocean scent and subtle saltiness of squid blend perfectly with the sweetness of salmon and the freshness of sea bream, creating an indescribable harmonious beauty.

　This is a flavor that doesn't exist in any fish; it's a completely new taste experience that gives the taster an exceptionally novel feeling!

　"This... I feel like it's a bit like molecular gastronomy? It's just that this method requires even more skill from the chef. If molecular gastronomy techniques are used, even an ordinary chef can replicate this taste!"

　With her rosy tongue lightly licking her lips, Alice Nakiri opened her eyes and murmured to herself, "This sashimi tastes the best I've ever had in my life!"

　By extracting the best qualities of several types of fish, a top-tier flavor never before seen in the world was achieved; at least, it was the first time she had tasted such a flavor.

　"Turning three ingredients into one flavor..."

　Erina Nakiri raised her swan-like neck, her eyes glazed over, her face flushed, her body trembling slightly from the delicious food, and her heart pounding frighteningly fast.

　Aside from the deliciousness of the fish itself, the seasonings seem rather ordinary.

　The spiciness of the garlic and the richness of the bean paste intertwine, adding a touch of intense aroma to the fish.

　The addition of peanut butter brings a silky texture and a subtle nutty aroma, making the sashimi more flavorful and complex.

　It's so delicious, you just can't stop eating it!

　By the time Erina Nakiri tried to take a second bite, the plate of sashimi in front of her had been completely cleared, leaving not even a crumb.

　However, while everyone was tasting the fish, Bai Yuan wasn't idle either. Looking at the different fish in the box, he wielded the Seven Star Knife and began a new experiment.

　Because of his exquisite knife skills, he can slice even the smallest snail meat, no bigger than a thumb, into thin slices using a rolling cut, thus enhancing the flavor of the dish.

　Such exquisite knife skills captivated everyone in the kitchen, with some even kneeling down on the spot, wanting to become her apprentices, but were refused by Alice Nakiri.

　That's right, it was Alice Nakiri who refused on her behalf.

　At this moment, Bai Yuan entered a profound state, his hands moving continuously as he scooped ingredients from the water tank.

　The people in the kitchen noticed that something was wrong with him; he seemed to be in a state of enlightenment, like someone from a martial arts novel. So they kept putting fish into the tank.

　No one gave them any instructions or forced them to do this; it was all their own initiative.

　He even tripped and fell because someone was rushing to deliver the fish and he was running too fast.

　Chapter 146 Bai Yuan's Instruction, Sleeping Together in a Tent

　"Come and try my boiled fish fillets!"

　He served the innovative version of boiled fish fillets to the table, waved it in front of Erina Nakiri's nose, and smiled.

　"No, Teacher Bai Yuan, I can't eat anymore, I can't eat any more!"

　Touching her now-grown belly and the stack of empty plates beside her, Erina Nakiri, though still yearning, restrained herself and closed her eyes.

　If she were to eat it, she would probably throw up.

　There was no way around it, I just ate way too much!

　If she hadn't eaten a lot of Bai Yuan's cooking before, it would have given her some self-control.

　Now he'd probably be eating and vomiting at the same time, making himself miserable but unwilling to let go of even a single bit of the deliciousness!

　"I'm already full, although I could eat a little more, but this state is just right, it's very comfortable!"

　Alice Nakiri touched her chubby belly and said with a slightly lazy expression, "This feeling of just the right amount of time is wonderful!"

　"Then let's go home after get off work. Take me around the area for the rest of the time, let's see your food cultivation base, and our first stop will be the mountains and forests where we can find some wild vegetables and mushrooms!"

　Upon hearing what Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri said, Bai Yuan shrugged and then sheathed the Seven Star Sword.

　Stepping to the back of the kitchen, I looked out through the glassless window at the mountain behind the Nakiri family's house.

　That place is a true treasure trove of ingredients!

　Because of the meticulous care provided by the Nakiri family, the quality of the ingredients here is excellent, making them top-tier delicacies when sold elsewhere.

　Cooking with these ingredients sounds incredibly delicious!

　Furthermore, he can use different kinds of ingredients to test what he has learned today.

　"Okay, we'll go with you."

　"I'll lead the way."

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri exchanged a glance, then nodded in unison and followed him out of the kitchen.

　"What an amazing man!"

　After Bai Yuan left with the two young ladies, the kitchen returned to silence.
