Therefore, even if Butterfly Ninja and Kanroji Mitsuri had the strength to defeat Muzan Kibutsuji, they could not truly kill him.
The only one who could truly kill him was Kamado Tanjiro, who had mastered Sun Breathing.
Otherwise, they could set up a sealing array until the sun rose, exposing Muzan Kibutsuji to the sunlight, which could also achieve the goal of killing him, but that was for later.
"Two orders of fish-fragrant shredded pork, one order of salt and pepper ribs."
"Coming right up!"
Standing in the kitchen, Hoshino Sora heard Kitagawa Marin call out the dishes, and he responded loudly. Then he quickly prepared the ingredients, heated the wok, and cooked the three dishes in a few minutes.
"Enjoy your meal!"
On a whim, after finishing the cooking, Hoshino Sora didn't let the cat girl waitress take the dishes away. Instead, he took the tray himself and personally came to the guest's table.
--------------------
"Hehe, this day arrived in a blink of an eye."
Standing in front of the competition venue, Yukihira Soma couldn't help but exclaim, looking at the magnificent sight before him. Truly, this day had arrived in an instant.
"BLUE, is this the stage for the competition? It looks so flashy."
"But I didn't expect the venue to be a castle, how interesting!"
Hearing Hoshino Sora's complaint, Yukihira Soma couldn't help but burst into laughter. Although he had held expectations when he came, seeing the castle-like BLUE arena truly astonished him.
"I heard that until now, it has always been held in large stadiums, but this time, even the competition format is completely different."
Yumeko Jabami added from the side. Because she was participating in BLUE, she had done a lot of research beforehand, but what surprised her was that the venue for this event was a castle.
"Oh, look at that person, he's the Chef of a two-star restaurant in Milan."
Pointing at the chef talking to someone not far away, Tadokoro Megumi exclaimed. She had seen his photo in a gourmet magazine before.
"Over there is the chef who won all the youth cooking competitions in Shanghai."
"There are also famous chefs from New York, Lyon, San Sebastian, and various other countries. That one over there is the overall champion of the Northern Shaanxi Youth Chef Competition, who later went on to further his studies at Oriental Academy. He's only twenty-three this year!"
"And over there..."
Their gazes wandered around. Although Hoshino Sora didn't care who his opponents were, Yumeko Jabami and Tadokoro Megumi did. They had done a lot of research before the competition, and most of it was on outstanding chefs from other countries.
Compared to them, who were seventeen or eighteen years old, everyone at the scene was an already established chef.
"It's amazing that we can compete among these people."
Looking at the bustling scene around them, any chef pulled from this crowd would be an incredibly formidable character capable of stirring up storms in the culinary world!
"Sure enough, you're here too."
Suddenly, Hoshino Sora spotted a familiar figure in the crowd. He then left the others and strode forward to greet him.
The person was Lei Yuhang, who was currently engrossed in a bishojo game, about to enter the R18 part of the story.
To play such a game in broad daylight, this guy was truly ruthless, just like the Lei Yuhang he knew.
"You're here too. Although I guessed as much, I won't lose to you this time."
"No, I will still be the one to win this time!"
Seeing the familiar figure, Lei Yuhang put down his handheld console, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
Since that loss, he had trained day and night at school, just to wipe away his previous shame when he next faced Hoshino Sora! The BLUE, he had finally waited for this opportunity!
"Everyone, thank you very much for gathering here."
The large screen in the center of the plaza suddenly lit up, and Ann's figure appeared on it, attracting the attention of everyone around.
"Congratulations to everyone for making it to BLUE. BLUE was founded and has been operated to this day by our World Gourmet Organization, WGO."
"This BLUE is slightly different from previous ones. The highest-ranking person in charge of all WGO personnel, our BOSS, will personally explain its outline."
As the words fell, Ann on the screen moved aside, yielding the central position.
"Good evening on this pleasant night. I am the Master of WGO."
The person on the screen did not show their face, but was obscured by a screen. Beneath the screen was a shadowy silhouette, and a clear voice came from behind it.
"The castle has the First Gate to the Third Gate, as well as the Honmaru and the Tenshukaku where I am located. The winner of this BLUE will be decided within the Tenshukaku."
"To reach the Tenshukaku, you must break through the culinary trials before each gate. Struggle and reach it, young chefs, the actors have finally gathered."
After the person behind the scenes spoke these words, a group of chefs in black clothes appeared before the chefs from the surface world. Standing at the forefront of them was Teacher Suzuki, who had previously presided over the final exam.
More accurately, he should be called Saiba Asahi!
