Hunter x Hunter: Pokémon Master, the World's Strongest

Link, who was still enjoying the sea scenery, suddenly heard Menqi's call.

Looking in the direction of the voice, Menqi was standing in the harbor on the other side, calling out to Link loudly.

Looking closer, there were several high-end-looking speedboats parked in the harbor.

"Link, long time no see."

Menqi waved with a smile.

"Yeah, it's been a while since we last met."

Link was a little emotional. He had proposed to go to Gourmet Paradise when he first met Menqi in the Samok Desert.

It seems that Menqi is quite efficient now.

Speaking of which, Menqi's dress has also changed a lot. The braids that were originally tied like a hedgehog have been let down, which looks much better.

As for other clothes, it seems that they have changed to a conservative style since the last time they met in the Hunter Exam.

After successfully reuniting with Menqi, the two boarded the speedboat and headed towards Gourmet Paradise.

According to Menqi's introduction, Gourmet Paradise is located deep in this sea area.

That is to say, it is located in the sea between the ancient Ganyu Kingdom and the Ulubian Continent.

But the island where the Gourmet Paradise is located does not appear on the map, so few people can go there.

Gourmet Paradise is like a private high-end place, and outsiders rarely reach it.

Usually they take the initiative to invite, or are led by acquaintances.

It is a holy place for countless people who pursue food.

There are basically gourmet hunters, a few V5 high-level people, nobles, and extremely outstanding chefs.

There are also top ingredients and food from the entire six continents!

…

"Link... I want to discuss something with you."

Looking at the endless sea, Link was slightly stunned, and suddenly a crisp voice came to his ears.

Turning his head, he saw Menqi speaking a little shyly, and the nervousness on her fair face was beyond words.

The sea breeze brushed the ends of Menqi's hair, blowing her hair away, gently tucking her hair behind her ears, and her earlobes were slightly red.

Seeing Menqi like this, Link was a little uncomfortable for a while.

But it must be said that it looks much more pleasing to the eye.

After a long period of psychological preparation, Menqi still plucked up the courage to invite Link to be her gourmet hunter partner.

After a description, Link learned about the tradition of gourmet hunters working in pairs.

This division of labor is quite reasonable, one gets the ingredients, and the other is responsible for cooking.

He immediately accepted Menqi's invitation.

Getting a chef for free, a big profit!

However, Link also vaguely felt something, maybe Menqi was talking about more than just a partner...

Menqi, who used to be bold, is so nervous now.

If you just invite someone to be a partner, Link will find it hard to believe.

...

With Menqi's introduction, the speedboat gradually approached the location of the Gourmet Paradise.

"You can already see the outline, it's in front."

Menqi pointed to the front, and there were already several islands in front of the two people.

The Gourmet Paradise is built on an archipelago, with a large island in the middle and several small islands next to it.

It forms a shape like a moon surrounded by stars.

The surrounding small islands are generally used to cultivate ingredients, entertain guests, etc.

The key point is the island in the middle, which is also named "Gourmet Island" and is the core of the Gourmet Paradise.

Gourmet Island is very large, even if the other small islands are added together, they are far smaller than Gourmet Island.

It is mainly divided into two areas, the food area and the food area.

...

"Buzz!"

As the speedboat stopped, the two also came to the port of Gourmet Island, which is a place specially used for ships to dock.

Link followed closely behind Menqi and stepped onto Gourmet Island.

Just after taking the first step, the expected breeding bar appeared in Link's mind.

Sure enough, a special place like Gourmet Paradise can indeed breed Pokémon.

I just don't know which one it will be?

There are also many food-related ones in Pokémon.

In terms of food, there are Onion Duck holding green onions, Slowpoke with a delicious tail, and Milk Can that produces delicious milk...

In terms of eating food... Link thinks that the most suitable ones are Snorlax and Snorlax!

In Pokémon, when talking about love of eating, people usually think of Snorlax and Snorlax.

Before they had walked a few steps, the aroma of delicious food entered their noses. It was a complex aroma.

Because there were so many delicious foods here, many aromas were mixed together.

Link could detect three or four different styles of aromas with just a sniff.

From here, it was the food area of ​​the Food Island!

The Food Island was roughly divided into the food area on the periphery and the food area in the middle.

Walking on the street, there were food vendors on both sides of the street.

Link couldn't help but open his eyes.

There were giant popcorns as big as basketballs, with a burnt aroma wafting out of them.

There were concentrated seasonings that could make the food full of seafood flavor with just one drop.

There were colorful juices like a rainbow, and it was said that one sip could taste the flavors of many kinds of fruits at the same time.

...

Here gathered the top food from the entire six continents!

In an instant, Link felt as if he had strayed into "The Prisoner of Food", with magical food everywhere.

Before tasting, Meng Qi said that she planned to take him to meet the founder of the Gourmet Paradise.

That is - Lin Nie - Odebreu!

Link felt a little strange, why did he take him to see Lin Nie.

When asked, Menqi hesitated, her eyes kept dodging, she was a little afraid to look at Link, and her cheeks were slightly red.

Seeing this, Link stopped asking, anyway, he also wanted to meet this legendary figure.

Lin Nie is definitely worthy of being called a legendary figure, especially among gourmet hunters.

Lin Nie has a lot of titles, such as two-star gourmet hunter, the companion of President Netero's trip to the Dark Continent, the founder of the Gourmet Paradise...

And most of these two-star gourmet hunters are old people who don't care about reputation, just like Jinfulis.

Otherwise, it must be three stars.

After crossing a street, the two came to the largest building in the Gourmet Paradise.

This is also the administrative building used to handle various affairs.

Lin Nie's office is on the top floor of this building.

"Knock knock."

"Grandma, I brought someone here."

Menqi knocked on the door twice and said softly.

Link didn't know if he was too suspicious, as if Menqi's tone was a little nervous?

After speaking, Menqi waited quietly for a few breaths, then slowly opened the door and went in.

Link finally got to see this legendary figure!

In the bright and spacious room, there was an ordinary desk, and an unknown painting hung on the wall, which looked like some kind of grass.

Behind the desk sat a short old man.

The old man had golden hair. If you only looked at his hair, others would think he was a young man.

But the fact was just the opposite.

The old man's face was covered with wrinkles, and his cheeks on both sides were inexplicably protruding and drooping.

There were two vertical lines on the right side of his face. I wonder what it means?

Both eyes were extremely pale, as if they had cataracts, and they looked turbid.

Anyone who saw them would question whether she could really see anything?

This is Lin Nie!

Looking at the appearance that was similar to his impression, Link was not too surprised.

After all, he had seen Lin Nie's appearance on Blue Star.

If there was anything to say, Link would rather sigh that time was merciless.

According to the comics, Lin Nie was also very beautiful when she was young, but now she has become like this.

Link felt that this might not only be due to the years, but also other factors.

Because Link also felt a dead breath from Lin Nie!

A breath similar to the Dark Continent!

Name: Lin Nie-Odebru

Strength: A+ (seriously ill)

Nen ability:...

Seriously ill...

The comics said that Lin Nie had not spoken for five years, perhaps it was related to the illness.

Linking all the information together, Link could probably make a guess.

It is very likely that Lin Nie got some strange disease in the Dark Continent!

This is the third heavyweight figure he has met.

The first one is President Netero, and the second one is Maha Zoldyck.

Just as Link was thinking about it, Lin Nie was also looking at Link.

860's turbid eyes flashed with a touch of surprise.

I didn't expect that the person Xiao Menqi was looking for was actually this person?

The strongest building owner of the Sky Arena - "Legendary" Link!

It is obvious that Lin Nie recognized Link's identity, which is also the norm for most Nen users.

After all, people like Mian Ying who never leave their houses and don't care about current affairs are only a minority.

For a moment, Lin Nie's eyes were a little complicated, and she didn't know what to say.

Originally, she was proud of Men Qi, and was still worried that the partner Men Qi found was not good enough and not worthy of her.

Now it seems that she was completely overthinking.
