People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Esdeath's lips curled into a slight smile, then she stood up, adjusted her hat, and said in a deep voice, "Assemble the army! Advance to the capital at a steady pace! Report on the situation at the front at all times! This war should come to an end!"

"Yes!"

Esdeath made no attempt to hide her excitement. She hadn't rested well since returning, and the Revolutionary Army had suddenly slowed their advance. Then she heard Charlos's suicidal remarks—no, his genocide remarks.

Esdeath was already excited to see Shiraha's rare display of ferocity, after all, she was someone who enjoyed torturing and torturing her opponents. Her husband was usually very gentle, but she never expected him to be so fierce that he was even more ruthless than her. Esdeath was so excited that she even prepared notes.

But upon hearing Charlos's words, Esdeath's mood, which had just started to improve, instantly exploded. All sorts of dissatisfaction, resentment, and regret erupted from her. Esdeath no longer wanted to torment her opponent; she now wanted to freeze the entire capital into an ice sculpture.

Now the final battle is finally here. Esdeath can't wait to go on a killing spree. She wants to take over the capital, ascend the throne, and make arrangements to try and convince a few people to come with her before Christmas. This crappy place is fine for just clocking in and out normally.

In a dense forest on the other side, Mine, holding the Romantic Cannon, said nervously, "Captain, both sides are preparing for a decisive battle. They're already at the city gates. According to the current information, Esdeath should have already set off to advance."

Najenda exhaled a puff of smoke and said softly, "Absolutely do not enter the military camp. Do not. According to the information I received, Esdeath has been in a very bad mood recently, especially a couple of days ago. Esdeath suddenly went crazy and showed an unprecedented murderous aura."

Leone tilted her head and said, "Huh? Why is she going crazy? Wasn't everything going according to her plan?"

"Based on my understanding of her, she rarely gets angry. Now, especially after having a lover, her personality has become more easygoing, and she's been spoiled by him to the point that she seems to have a lot more of a girlish side. But... when she goes crazy..."

"It's less like she's gone mad and more like she's furious. For her to get so angry, this late-stage henpecked husband probably missed some family activity, or someone provoked her or spoke rudely to her lover..."

Hearing this, Mine, who had been to the shop before, shuddered and whispered, "Their family is like that... If Esdeath goes crazy, then what about the rest..."

"Sigh... So Esdeath's actions this time are probably not just about fighting, but also about venting her anger. Therefore, we must not get involved in the chaos this time. Our mission is to take care of the rear, and then we'll see if we need to support Esdeath."

Everyone nodded, while Chelsea clicked her tongue and said, "If she goes crazy, we probably won't need to send reinforcements, since Black Eyes and the others are still in the city, right?"

"That being said, if Ran were here, she would definitely have Kurome and the others retreat if things didn't look good. But, the Supreme Imperial Arms... heh... if it weren't for this plan, I really wouldn't know how to deal with them."

Lubbock clicked his tongue and said, "That's all talk, but so far, everything has gone so smoothly it's like a dream."

"Indeed... But if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I probably would have doubted whether I was dreaming. Alright, we should set off now. Proceed stealthily and only kill the high-ranking officers."

"Yes!"xn

Watching the messengers rushing back and forth reporting on the battle situation, Seryu, who was on guard duty in the inner courtyard of the palace, gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "Something feels off, Ran!"

Lan spread her wings and flew down from the platform, saying softly, "If any problems arise later, just focus on your target. Nothing else matters. Leave immediately after you've resolved the issue."

"Hmm... Hmm? Where's Kurohime? Isn't she in charge of the area near the entrance?"

"Black Eyes... She went back to find the things the captain asked her to bring."

"Hmm? The captain asked me to bring this? I don't understand... Will doesn't know if he can take care of those two from the Imperial Fist Temple directly. Uncle Riva should be able to handle them too, right?"

Ran sighed and said, "It's really a waste of their talents to have the two of them deal with two members of the Imperial Fist Temple. Now that the Minister's Imperial Arm has been broken, it would be best to find a way to behead that guy first."

"It's a pity there's no chance anymore, otherwise I could have fed it to Little Bi..."

Little Bi shook his head repeatedly. Seryu and Ran were both taken aback. Ran squatted down and rubbed Little Bi's head, saying, "Hmm? Little Bi, what's wrong?"

Seryu picked up Little Bi, who barked a few times. Seryu's eyes twitched as she suppressed a laugh. Ran asked, somewhat puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"Pfft... Little Bi said that the ministers are all fat and it doesn't want to eat them. It said that besides high cholesterol and high blood pressure, it doesn't know what other problems they have, and they are too ugly."

Lan chuckled softly, and Seryu said with a smile, "Little Bi, go and see how DR Fashion is doing with the preparations."

Little Bi jumped down from Seryu's arms and ran off in one direction. Lan also put away her smile, turned around, glanced at the palace behind her, and said softly, "A thousand-year-old capital, destroyed in one battle. How tragic, how lamentable..."

Seryu, one hand on her hip, her eyes filled with determination and resolve, believed that as long as Esdeath was in power, true justice would surely be achieved! The thousand-year-old capital would become history within the next few days.

Chapter 179 Bai Yu's Bounty Order, Perona's Rant (Please Subscribe~)

During this period, everyone was busy with their own things, but behind the orderly process, many unexpected things happened. According to the plan of the preliminary rounds, the quarterfinals, the semifinals, and the finals, there were four weeks in a month, which was exactly one week per round.

So Alice and Hisako have plenty of time, but the only downside is that no matter how lively Saturday is, these two girls probably won't be happy.

Esdeath's forces are already engaged in battle, while her Musou Legion is advancing at a steady pace and is expected to arrive within the next few days. Without a night raid to disrupt the capital, the Revolutionary Army's attack is not going to be easy.

Time passed steadily, yet busily, until Friday arrived. Inside an old castle, Hawkeye was quietly reading a newspaper, while Perona beside him shouted with dissatisfaction, "Hey! Not the day before yesterday! Not yesterday! Can't we go to Manager Shiraha's shop today?!"

"Wait."

"What are you waiting for! It's only the time it takes to eat a meal! I have so many questions for Manager Baiyu! You... Hmph! I'm going by myself today! How annoying! We're both men! Why can't you learn from Manager Baiyu?!"

The words had barely left his mouth when Hawkeye looked up at Perona, who took two steps back and, still trying to appear tough, shouted, "What do you want?! Trying to scare me won't work! You..."

boom!

"Ah!!!! Negative ghost!"

"I got it... I'm a useless piece of trash who can't even master swordsmanship..."

Hawkeye's eyes twitched almost imperceptibly as he watched Zoro kneeling on the ground, holding two pieces of paper, looking utterly dejected and self-deprecating. He had seen this scene many times before, but each time he saw it, he felt it was a test of his mental fortitude.

"Phew... You scared me to death! You green-headed monkey! Why did you suddenly appear?! That was terrifying!"

Before Zoro could recover from the blow from the Negative Ghost, he immediately pulled out two pieces of paper and said, "They've appeared! Shopkeeper Shiraha's bounty! And Morgans' latest newspaper!"

"Huh?! A bounty on Shopkeeper Shiraha?! Good heavens! Has the Navy gone mad?! They dare to put a bounty on Shopkeeper Shiraha?! Yuuko and the others will wipe them all out!"

Hawkeye, however, said calmly, "Finally, how much?"

"Because we don't know Shopkeeper Bai Yu's name, therefore... he is an extremely wicked man, with a bounty of 3 billion Berries! Dead or alive!"

"Three billion?! Why is the first bounty so high?!"

Hawkeye said in a deep voice, "He killed a Celestial Dragon in public and spread such threatening remarks. He didn't take it seriously at all and just casually injured Akainu and Garp, who are monsters no weaker than Roger and the others."

"The suspect is a Devil Fruit user with spatial abilities, a master of physical combat and Haki, and most importantly, they can't find out the identity of Shopkeeper Bai Yu or whether he has any companions. That's what they should be serious about."

"Moreover, for the sake of the Navy's reputation, it will definitely not be higher than Whitebeard's, otherwise the last defeat would have been even more humiliating, so this 3 billion is definitely not high."

"But Yuuko and the others will be furious, especially since they said that Manager Shiraha is an extremely evil person. Manager Shiraha is not a bad person at all!"

"You don't really think that Mrs. Lucifer and the others didn't do anything, do you? With their strength, no one could possibly detect what they wanted to do. Besides, we haven't been there for a while, so we don't know if any new, terrifyingly powerful beings have emerged from the Baiyu store owners' homes."

Perona nodded in realization, but then realized that if she admitted it, her earlier surprise would make her seem like an idiot. So, Perona decisively snorted and said, "So! What are you waiting for? The bounty, you mean?!"

"more than...."

"Huh?" x2

No sooner had they spoken than they heard footsteps. Both of them turned around and saw a one-armed man walk in. Before Zoro could even react, Perona exclaimed, "Red-Haired Shanks?!"

Shanks paused for a moment, then said with some confusion, "When did things get so lively here? Aren't you all usually busy with your own things?"

"The bounty for Shopkeeper Baiyu has been issued."

"Pfft... Huh?! How much?"

"Three billion, life or death."

Shanks chuckled twice and said, "I bet they'll search themselves to death and still not find Manager Shiraha. But judging from your expression, you haven't gone there yet?"

"We knew you'd be coming, and we know that Manager Shiraha would definitely have a bounty on his head. I bet Rayleigh and the others are waiting for that bounty too. Since you're here, let's go to the store today."

"Okay, but we can't go too early."

Hawkeye nodded and said, "That's right, we'll depart in four hours."

"Since we're all free anyway, let's have a drink!"

"I'm not interested. Right now, I just want to challenge Manager Baiyu again to see how much I've improved. But you've come at the perfect time to warm up."

"Hey, hey, hey, you seem a bit too confident. Are you using me as a warm-up?!"

Hawkeye didn't say anything, but simply picked up his black sword and walked towards the door. Shanks just clicked his tongue and followed him out with his sword.

"Phew...that was terrifying! But I guess I'll get to eat a big meal today! Hmm? Hey! Green-headed monkey! What are you doing? You're not going to watch the game, are you? You'll get blown away!"

Zoro gripped his sword and said in a deep voice, "As a swordsman, there is absolutely no such thing as retreating! I must go and observe the duel between two top swordsmen!"

"Hello! Hello!"

Watching Zoro's departing figure, Perona snorted and said, "Hmph! A bunch of guys with no life skills or emotional intelligence! Can't they learn from Shopkeeper Shiraha?! Humph! I have to bandage him up again when he's injured! Ugh! So annoying! Monkeys are just monkeys!"

Perona floated around the house, shouting like a madwoman for a long time, before finally floating back to her original spot, picking up the bounty poster from the ground, and staring at the white feather on it.

After a long silence, Perona chuckled and said, "As expected, Shopkeeper Shiraha is still the most pleasing to the eye... Humph! Shopkeeper Shiraha is not a bad person at all!"

Perona was about to tear off the bounty poster, but considering she might need to show it to Lucifer and the others, and tearing it off might make it less interesting, she continued admiring it as she floated towards her room. Hearing an explosion, Perona just clicked her tongue and didn't say anything. "A bunch of monkeys."

Chapter 180 The Interested Crowd, Esdeath's Announcement (Please Subscribe~)

I don't know how long the fight lasted, but Zoro was knocked away twice, but he still ran back to watch. I don't know what he figured out, but he looked very ambitious.

"I can order the cheongsam tomorrow. To be honest, I'm actually looking forward to it. By the way, should I also order a kimono while I'm at it?"

“I think it’s necessary. We’ll definitely be going to the shrine for the New Year, so wearing a kimono is more reliable. I haven’t worn a kimono in a long time; the last time was when I was a child.”

"Hmm? Tsunade, the young master has worn a kimono before?"

"Of course! It's quite pretty. I haven't worn it in a long time, and I'm starting to miss it. Hmm? Ichika, are you guys here to do your homework today?"

When Tsunade and the others returned, Nakano Ichika and the others were dealing with a problem they didn't know how to solve. Nakano Ichika nodded and said, "Yeah, we can't just not come all the time. We should try to come every day or two."

"That's great. Hey? Where's my husband?"

Nakano Satsuki tilted her head and said, "Hmm... Manager Shiraha said he went to prepare takeout and is in the kitchen right now. To be honest, even though I knew that, I was still quite surprised to see him actually delivering takeout in person. Manager Shiraha actually went to deliver takeout himself."

Marina slumped in her chair and waved her hand, saying, "It's probably that outrageous Izumi Sagiri again, isn't it? This is too outrageous. Boss, why don't some of you take care of this?"

"My husband said we should wait until she's in high school to see how it goes. That's what he said. You should go and tell him."

Marina's eye twitched, and she tilted her head back without saying a word. It was clear that Marina was definitely not going. Nakano Nino, however, asked with some curiosity, "Lucy-nee, are you planning to order cheongsams and kimonos?"

"Yes, the cheongsam has been decided, and the kimono is a new idea. By the way, have any of you ever worn a kimono?"

"Of course they've worn them. Every girl in Japan has probably worn one. I can't be 100% sure, but anyone over 95 has definitely worn one. They'd wear them when they went to temple fairs or fireworks displays during the New Year."

"A fireworks display? What's so interesting about fireworks...?"

Hearing Jinx's complaint, Nakano said seriously, "It's very beautiful, okay? You don't usually see fireworks, so a lot of people watch it. People make wishes, and there are many confession scenes to watch."

"Hmm? A confession scene? This sounds kind of interesting. Haha... why am I so sleepy today..."

"It's normal, just autumn fatigue. I was like that a couple of days ago too. Just make sure you get some rest. Anyway, Jinx, you're usually pretty laid-back, so just catch up on your sleep whenever you have time."

"Where am I being lazy! But speaking of which, how are you so sure it's autumn fatigue?"

Kobayashi Rindou waved his hand and said, "I asked Eirin to take a look at me. She said so. I thought I was pregnant and I was so nervous. But Eirin didn't tell me. I'm experiencing autumn fatigue. She's been like this for the past few days too."

"Ugh... I'm feeling tired in the fall. I've never felt this way before."

Wei said irritably, "You weren't this free before."

"Then whose fault is it?!"

"Forehead...."

Caitlin simply covered her mouth and chuckled softly, then leaned closer to Sona and said with some confusion, "Sona, what are you doing? You've been so quiet these past few days."

“I’m studying piano and I feel like I’m really good at it. My husband can play too, so I plan to ask him for help once I’ve mastered the basics.”

"How did you know your husband can play the piano?"

Sona coughed lightly and said, "Well... I told my husband I wanted to find some books on this topic, so I went looking for them, and I saw the photo album, and then I looked around, and... and that's how I found it..."

"Hmm? You saw your husband's photo album? Is there anything interesting?"

"It's what Sister Zi mentioned before, but there were indeed many unexpected scenes."

Albedo propped her face up and said, "That photo album is basically seen by everyone who stays at home or in hotels. My husband didn't intend to hide it. If you don't want to look through the album, you can take a look around my room."

"Hmm?" xn (

"Her room is full of photos of her husband, whether it's posters, cushions, or sheets. If you don't want to look through albums, just take a walk around her room and you'll see them."

"Um... Fiona, have you seen it?"

Fiona shook her head and said, "We only came here during the summer vacation and moved here afterwards. It hasn't even been a week since summer vacation ended, so I haven't seen anything like it. But it sounds nice, we can take a look tonight..."

"We definitely have to go see it. Jinx, have you guys seen it?"

Jinx waved her hand and said, "Go ahead and see, I've already seen it."

Lucifer paused for a moment and said, "Huh? Something's not right. You didn't know Yukari when you came here for the Kengan tournament. Yukari only saw the photo album later. Didn't you come before summer vacation? When did you see it?"

"What's so strange about that? It's perfectly normal. I asked my husband before, and he told me, so I went to look it up. I even went with Kaguya and the others."
