"This must be an ingredient that is perfectly suited for your Gourmet Cells. You'll be putting it on your Full Course Menu, right?"
"Speaking of which, Yuuki, how much of your Full Course Menu have you completed?"
Setsuno was also very curious. From the time she had known him until now, she still didn't know what his Full Course Menu was.
Nono and Granny Ayame also pricked up their ears. They were also very curious, especially Nono. She greatly admired him, and the partners of many Gourmet Hunters and chefs would have partner ingredients.
For example, many of the items on Toriko's Full Course Menu were captured with Komatsu. Granny Ayame and Girim had also found the Corona Sunflower back then. A pity Girim was a scumbag.
"Full Course Menu? I don't have one."
Yuuki shook his head. He really didn't plan to make one.
In the world of Toriko, the existence of a Full Course Menu was mainly for two reasons. The first was that people hoped to obtain ingredients that moved them deeply, to put these ingredients on their Menu and let them represent them.
It could be said that it was a way of entrusting one's emotions—whether it was family, love, or friendship—to the ingredients.
The other reason was that the existence of a Full Course Menu represented the final outcome.
In the world of Toriko, only after finding your own Full Course Menu—the ingredients that your Gourmet Cells loved most—and eating them could you then eat the ingredients of Acacia's Full Course Menu and revive your Appetite Demon.
If you ate the ingredients of your own Full Course Menu, then the revived Appetite Demon would be devoured by you, becoming your true appetite.
Conversely, if you didn't eat the ingredients of your own Full Course Menu, then once you ate Acacia's Menu and revived your Appetite Demon—the result would be that you would be devoured by it, becoming the nourishment for its true revival.
So, if you didn't want to be devoured by your own appetite, you needed a Full Course Menu. For 99.999% of the people in this world, they didn't know this hidden meaning.
And not many of them could eat all Acacia's Full Course Menu and revive the Appetite Demon in their bodies.
So for them, this rule could almost be ignored. But in Setsuno's eyes, this was very important for Yuuki.
"Yuuki, my boy, I don't know what you're thinking, but you must establish a Full Course Menu. Find the eight ingredients that suit you best. With your talent, you will surely capture the ingredients of Acacia's Full Course Menu. But if you don't eat your own Full Course Menu first, then you'll be finished."
....
Setsuno also knew this hidden condition. Ichiryu had long gotten the news from the Red Nitro and Don Slime, so he would naturally tell Jiro and her.
Even the people in the Gourmet Corp knew. After all, it concerned Midora's life. Ichiryu knew very well that Midora had the ability to collect all of Acacia's Full Course Menu, so he would tell him the news.
He was his brother—he couldn't just let him be, even if he was very rebellious.
Now Setsuno was also glad. It was a good thing she had asked.
"I know. If I don't collect my own Full Course Menu, then once I eat Acacia's Full Course Menu, I will be devoured by my Appetite Demon, becoming the nourishment for its revival."
"But my Gourmet Cells are special, so this won't happen. You can rest assured!"
Yuuki said with a smile. He naturally knew she meant well, but he didn't even have an Appetite Demon, so there was no question of being devoured by one.
"Your Gourmet Cells really are special!"
Hearing his words, Setsuno was stunned for a moment and then understood. She knew very well that since he knew the stakes, he would definitely not be reckless in such a matter.
He was a person with a plan, and he was very independent. While she and Jiro would give him some suggestions from time to time, he would only adopt a part of them, not all of them.
"This is the first time I've heard of such a thing!"
Granny Ayame was also very surprised. She had never heard of this before.
"Very few people know about this. The difficulty of eating all Acacia's Full Course Menu is much greater than collecting a suitable Full Course Menu for yourself."
Setsuno shook her head. That was not a lie at all.
Acacia's Full Course Menu only matured once every few hundred years. Besides a few people like Acacia's Students, the lifespan of others was only a little over a hundred years.
So, waiting for Acacia's Full Course Menu to mature was a problem in itself, not to mention capturing them.
Not every ingredient was related to the Eight Kings, quite a few were. To get them, you had to pass through the Eight Kings. In the entire Human World, only Acacia's Students could do that.
After capturing the ingredients, there was still the matter of preparing them. The others were fine, but ANOTHER, ATOM, and GOD—the difficulty of preparing these three was so high that even the Blue Nitro couldn't say they could succeed every time.
In the story, before this time, the capture of Acacia's Full Course Menu was only done by the Blue Nitro. They naturally wouldn't share them with humans.
"That's true. There's no need to struggle with it so much. Those ingredients are not for me to touch."
Granny Ayame was also very direct. She wasn't frustrated—she just felt it was a fact. Since it was a fact, there was no need to dwell on it.
....
Later, Nono also ate the Corona Sunflower. Surprisingly, its compatibility with her was extremely high.
This situation surprised even Setsuno. Because Nono's ability was mainly ice, and though the Corona Sunflower had no attribute, it absorbed a large amount of sunlight and should have been the opposite of her ice ability.
But she never expected that Nono would be so compatible with it. It was truly incredible.
Nono's Gourmet Cells activated once again. After that, Yuuki turned his attention to the Wolf Fire Dragon. Granny Ayame's transplanting work was also complete.
The next morning, the group came to the altar. There was still one Corona Sunflower inserted on it. This one was still supplying energy, but it was clearly not enough.
So, the seal was already beginning to undo itself. But because there was still some energy supply, the speed of its undoing was not as fast as in the original story.
"Granny Ayame, please move the last Corona Sunflower. That way, the seal will break a little faster."
Yuuki said. Hearing this, she didn't waste any words. Since they had decided to undo the seal, there was no need to waste time. As the last sunflower was removed, the speed of the seal's release became even faster. There were a large number of Red Nitro symbols on the sealing device.
These symbols were now all glowing with a red light, which meant the seal was about to be broken.
As the red symbols continuously moved, soon, the seal was released. A massive black substance suddenly burst open, and a behemoth gradually unfurled its body.
This behemoth was the Wolf Fire Dragon. Its massive claws directly grabbed onto a mountain, and its other claw grabbed onto another mountain far away.
"This thing is HUGE!"
Seeing its full appearance, Yuuki was also a bit surprised. This Wolf Fire Dragon was much larger than it had appeared in the Movie. This size... it was probably no less than the Horse King, maybe even a little bigger.
In this world, the Eight Kings were not the largest. There were plenty of creatures larger than them.
Especially the Monkey King, Bambina. In the Gourmet World, it was hard to find a creature smaller than it.
After all, in its disguised state, Bambina was less than 1.7 meters tall. Even after undoing the disguise, its size was only a little over three meters. This size was considered small even in the Human World, let alone the Gourmet World, which was full of giant beasts.
Of course, the Monkey King's strength was there.
So what if it was small? Its combat power was strong. To be able to become one of the Eight Kings was not just for show—it was earned through real battles.
....
"It is indeed very big. It feels like it's almost caught up to the Horse King. But a large size doesn't mean it's strong. This thing has been sealed for so long."
Judging from its aura, Setsuno felt that one slash from her would be enough to kill it.
Yuuki also saw this. He had no intention of fighting it. This thing could suppress Toriko and the others before they used their combined attack, but it couldn't suppress him.
Taking out his exclusive knife—an ingredient like this was worthy of him using it—with one slash, a blade of light directly beheaded the Wolf Fire Dragon.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!
At this moment, there was still a hint of confusion in its eyes. After all, it had just been unsealed and had finally gained its freedom. But with one slash—it found its head separated from its body.
Though the creatures of the Gourmet World had very strong life force, very few could guarantee they wouldn't die after being beheaded.
Soon, the pupils of the Wolf Fire Dragon dilated. Its aura gradually weakened and finally disappeared.
But Yuuki knew the details of this thing. The soul in its body would take at least three days to dissipate. So he naturally wouldn't eat it now.
Instead, he directly used Knocking to preserve it. There was no need to worry about other creatures approaching and eating its flesh.
Though the Wolf Fire Dragon was already dead, its aura wouldn't dissipate in a short time, so there was no need to worry about other creatures approaching. Its aura was still very terrifying.
....
"How are we going to move such a big thing?"
Nono couldn't help but ask. The size of the Wolf Fire Dragon was too large—it was very difficult to take it out.
"Leave it to me. I'll drag it out through the sea. That's the only way to get it out without destroying the dome."
Yuuki said that they could only go by water. The passage they had come in through couldn't possibly accommodate a being the size of the Horse King.
"You'll have to take it out of the Hungry Triangle first. Then we can notify the IGO to come and transport it."
Setsuno knew that transporting such an ingredient was very annoying. And it wasn't just this Wolf Fire Dragon—but also the other ingredients they had collected.
She could tie the other ingredients to the jellyfish and transport them out.
....
"Let's wait here for a few days. After this thing's soul dissipates, we'll eat a little and then leave!"
Yuuki said.
Hearing his words, the group was very much in agreement. They stayed here for a few days, waiting for the Wolf Fire Dragon's soul to dissipate.
At the same time, they continued to explore this Red Nitro ruin to see if they could find anything else, just like the hidden barbecue grill.
