Pirates: Steel Chain Fingers

[Every audience! Let everyone wait for a long time~~~! ! 】

[Due to urgent adjustments by the competition jury and a series of emergencies. This year's final is now suspended, and it will be changed to a battle between "Bread King" Taigu and "Troublemaker" Matthew for the final right! 】

[Both parties have submitted the names of the dishes! "Bread King" Taigu is about to present to you the "Dickart Fanglu Pancake", which is a dish that tests the chef's skills! 】

[And the "troublemaker" Matthew wants to present to everyone is "Laughing Fire Claw"! This dish is so familiar...Huh? Isn't this the signature dish of chef Wamzi of the "Song of Flowers" restaurant? 】

On the competition stage, Matthew stood in the open kitchen on the east side where Garrette was originally, looked at the 'Bread King' Taigu on the opposite side with complicated eyes, and said slowly: "...In this way, I finally Understood. Mr. Taigu, you were the one who framed your father back then, right?"

"Hehe, what are you talking about, little Matthew?" Taigu's face twitched, and he said with a smile: "Master Wamqi obviously made a big mistake himself, and there are iron nails hidden in the dishes presented. Seriously injured the nobles who came here to eat here, and were severely punished. What does it have to do with me? Don’t forget, I helped you win the three-year deadline.”

"'Mix the iron nails into the ham'! My father is a top chef, how could he make such a mistake! And the way you framed me in the past three years is exactly the same! The same shit!!" Matthew angrily He shouted: "The reason why there is a three-year deadline is because you want to swallow the 'Song of Flowers' restaurant completely! Father treats you so well, you actually...!!"

"...Nonsense!" 'Bread King' Taigu curled his lips: "You kid, are you sure you want to compete with me? Have you forgotten? You have never defeated me before!"

"That was three years ago!"

Matthew took out a somewhat faded headscarf from his trouser pocket and wrapped it tightly around his head.

Then, his eyes changed, becoming full of arrogance and confidence: "...don't think that I'm still standing still for the past three years. You secretly tasted the food on board the stall I opened on Cheese Beach, and then you were afraid , That's why he used that kind of dirty trick to frame me in the game. What a dirty thing!"

"However, it's different now. You will never have the chance to touch my ingredients again. You trash is completely finished!"

"..." Taigu's forehead was tensed with blue veins, he gritted his teeth and said, "Damn kid...then I will let you understand that you will never win against me in your life!"

[Uh... remind the two of you. This is a food contest, not a talk show. Can we start the game now? 】

The eyes of both parties were fixed, and they started cooking at the same time.

In the VIP room not far away, the members of the BIG MOM pirate group and Victor and his party were in the same room, and the two parties sat at the opposite ends of the VIP room, as if they were clearly separated.

"Generally speaking, normal people would immediately think that Taigu was the mastermind who framed his father? What's more, he used the same method to frame him for three years in a row." Perona said with an unbelievable expression: "... ...Is this guy an idiot?"

Haoxue shook his head: "Many years ago, this old man also went to the 'Song of Flowers' restaurant. Chef Wamzi, the owner and chef, is indeed a remarkable person. I didn't expect that he would be sentenced to 'life imprisonment' and imprisoned." In the dungeons of 'Decat, the City of the Windmills."

Matthew told everyone everything before going on stage. Through Victor's analysis, Matthew finally realized that Taigu was the culprit who framed his father.

"According to what Matthew said, this Taigu was his father's sous chef before, and he was loyal to him and kind to Matthew. After his father's accident, Taigu has been comforting and helping him. It is not surprising that he is the mastermind. It’s original.” Robin analyzed: “But Victor, can Matthew really display the power of the mushroom fruit? This is not a battle, but a cooking competition.

"

Victor, who was sitting on the sofa, smiled slightly: "Don't worry, that kid is the best match for this fruit. If there is a matching degree between the ability user and the fruit, then the matching degree between him and the fungus fruit is 100%!"

"Really? Can't you see that kid has such a talent?" Perona said in surprise.

"Devil fruits also have 'compatibility'." Victor opened a bottle of red wine and poured himself a glass: "Also, if this person has deep research and contact with related abilities before eating devil fruit, then even if he just ate The fruit can also display most of the fruit's ability immediately. That is to say, there is no 'gap period'."

"Brother, do you mean that he, like you, is the type who can display his abilities immediately after eating the fruit? But Matthew looks weak and weak, and looks like a doormat. Is he really so powerful?"

Haoxue smiled: "Little Perona, you can't say that. Have you heard of 'personality awakening'?"

The long-legged beauty Snamon on the other side glanced at Katakuri, and seeing that he had no objection, he boldly asked, "Hey, old man, what is 'personality awakening'?"

Haoxue rubbed the tiny scales on his chin, and said slowly: "First of all, the awakening of personality is not the same as split personality, but a strengthened personality expression. Usually, the awakening of personality will be achieved through the help of some patient. A commonly used or commemorative item to trigger. Once the trigger is successful, it will greatly strengthen the patient's certain character performance and specific abilities, and even give the bystanders a strange sense of 'personality replacement'."

"...Does Matthew have such abilities?" Garrett, who had been staring at Victor without speaking, suddenly asked.

"Yes." Haoxue nodded slightly: "If I'm not mistaken, his trigger should be 'wearing a specific hood'. Look, it's started."

Everyone's eyes shifted to the stage.

At this moment, Matthew, who was wearing a turban tightly, no longer had the usual submissive expression, but was unusually calm, even cold. His eye sockets were slightly darkened, his eyes were sharp, and the kitchen knife in his hand was fast and powerful, as if he was a different person.

[Oh oh oh! Contestant Matthew really used the famous chef Wamzi's favorite dish "Laughing Fire Claw"! What he uses is the fourth-level dangerous ingredient 'Laughing Mushroom'. This dangerous mushroom is different from the usual 'Laughing Mushroom'. Once inhaling the spores it spreads or eating its body, it will make the eater laugh continuously and within 1 hour The whole body is depleted and died, there is no antidote! Only very skilled, very high-end chefs are capable of handling 'Kurxiao Mushroom'! 】

Matthew caressed the three processed huge laugh-strip mushrooms on the chopping board with both hands. The red laugh-strips on the surface of the mushrooms began to dissolve and spread, and the color gradually changed from red to blue.

"Mushroom food, non-toxic and anti-scattering."

Soon, the red laugh lines on the caps of the three withered laughing mushrooms all turned into blue ink drop-shaped spots. Then Matthew moved his left index finger upwards, and those blue ink drop-shaped spots gradually swelled into big bags, and then burst!

[Wow! Not good, not good! The canopy of Kuxiaomushroom has burst! Its spores will... eh? 】

The host's exclamation stopped abruptly.

Dots of fluorescent spores sprayed into the sky and then slowly fell down, like fine snow exuding blue fluorescence, it was really beautiful.

Matthew, who was wearing a turban, licked his lips and said with an evil smile: "Everyone, please rest assured that these spores have been improved by me and are completely non-toxic. And..."

Matthew stretched out his right hand, and all the blue fluorescent spots floating in the sky flew into his palm, condensing into a blue crystal column exuding beautiful fluorescence.

"Singing crystal..." Matthew tossed up the beautiful crystal in his hand comfortably and grasped it, and looked at the opposite 'Bread King' Taigu with a malicious look on his face: "One of the top three seasonings on the great route! Taigu Gu, didn’t you always want its recipe? Come on, win me, I’ll tell you everything, and then I’ll offer you the ‘Song of Flowers’!”

The "Bread King" Taigu looked at the blue crystal with longing eyes. He barely stabilized his mind, and his eyes drifted to Matthew: "So kind? What will happen if I lose?"

Matthew sneered and said softly:

"...Your life is nothing more than that."
