The Beautiful Swordsman Came with a Barbecue
Chapter 635: 8 Treasure Navy
, !
"Mom, what do you think..."
In a candy castle on Cake Island, Katakuri, who had just spoken, stopped and looked at Charlotte Lingling, who was constantly poaching assorted seafood fried rice.
Charlotte Lingling also seemed to realize something, took two more sips, then stopped, and Katakuri said again: "It seems that the winner this time is self-evident."
Hearing this, Charlotte Lingling nodded approvingly and said, "Actually, the other young people are doing well, but... a chef who can't keep diners full will not be the best chef.
I like this young man. Whether it's frozen products, roast meat, pasta, or the current rice, the weight and deliciousness have been balanced, just look at the final dessert. "
Katakuri glanced at the dozen or so normal-sized plates in front of Charlotte, as well as the plate that was the size of an ordinary person's desk, then nodded and said, "Well, then I will inform the next round of assessment. ?"
"Well, if Totland can have such a son-in-law, then he won't be hungry in the future, right?"
Katakuri nodded, picked up the form, ticked it lightly, and then said to Perospero beside him: "Brother, please, let them continue to the next round."
Perospero nodded, then turned and walked out of the castle, the smile on his face was also very light, after all, the tea party was to make mother happy.
But this morning and at noon, his mother was not very satisfied, which made him a little sad, but now a different chef has appeared.
Perospero made up his mind that even if in the end, none of his sisters took a fancy to this chef, he would hire him at a high salary to cook for his family.
After walking out of the castle, Perospero whispered a few words with a waiter, and then returned to the castle. The waiter quickly found the Straw Hats who were resting.
At this time, Sanji, who made four large portions of food in a row, did not feel tired, and even at this time, he continued to use the leftover ingredients from the barbecue just now to serve his friends and other chefs.
With a sincere smile on his face, he seemed to have forgotten the purpose of his coming here, but was immersed in this occasion where countless young and excellent chefs communicated.
In fact, since leaving the Barati restaurant, Sanji has not participated in such cooking competitions, but the level of those competitions is a little too low for a chef like him.
Either the ingredients and themes are limited, and he can't play his cooking skills well, or the opponent's level is insufficient, and it is difficult to inspire Sanji's heart as a chef.
But this Totland's Chef Contest completely met all of Sanji's requirements and conditions for the cooking contest.
Totland's strength and connections, as well as the appeal of the tea party, attracted almost all the outstanding young chefs in this sea to participate. At the same time, they also brought the best quality ingredients from their respective seas.
Sanji felt that his participation in the Chef King Competition this time was not just a competition process. When competing with chefs from different sea areas, the collision of ideas was his biggest gain.
In just one afternoon, he felt that he had benefited a lot, and his personal menu was constantly adding items, and at the same time, his original recipes were also constantly improving.
No matter what industry it is, it is impossible for one person to work behind closed doors. The chef industry can especially reflect this. Whether it is active self-esteem, or lack of experience and knowledge, it will limit the development of a chef.
Only by keeping an open heart and constantly trying and learning new things can a chef keep improving and satisfy more diners with tricky tastes.
Of course... idiots like Luffy and Chlorella are exceptions. No matter what Luffy eats, he thinks it's delicious, while Zoro doesn't say anything about what he eats. When he asks him, he will arrogantly say it's not as good as wine. .
But... Sanji lit a cigarette and looked at Luffy and Zoro, who were constantly eating barbecue at this time, as well as Nami, Robin, and others. These people are his partners who support him.
"Mr. Sanji!"
Just when it was finally time to take a break, the maid ran over again, and Sanji instantly put on a gentleman's smile and asked, "Ma'am, is there anything I can help you with?"
The maid nodded politely and said, "It's time to start making desserts, or would you like to take a break?"
"Whoo~"
Sanji took a deep breath of his cigarette and said, "But there is no chef, so the diners will be waiting!"
After he finished speaking, he neatly returned to his open kitchen. Bebo, the helper, asked very sensible: "Sanji, do you want to weigh the flour for you?"
Bepo is the best helper chef Sanji has ever experienced. He always seems to know what he's going to do next, what ingredients or kitchen utensils he needs, but this time...
Sanji shook his head and said, "No, I'm not going to use flour!"
Bepo asked suspiciously, "Don't you make cakes?"
Among countless desserts, cake is definitely the one with the highest fault tolerance, because most people will not reject the taste and texture of cake.
At the same time, cakes are easy to shape and make a good-looking appearance. Coupled with people's inherent impression of cakes and their perception of the sweetness of sugar, people will naturally feel happiness when they see cakes.
After the visual and psychological foreshadowing, the deliciousness of the cake will naturally increase at least one level in the perception of the diners.
The other chefs who participated in the Master Chef Competition today also chose to use cakes in the final dessert selection.
Including Sanji, after understanding the five kinds of meals in the competition, he started talking about the cakes he was good at right away.
Bepo thought that Sanji would choose to use a cake to compete, but now...
Hearing Bepo's doubtful words, Sanji threw the cigarette **** in his hand into the sink, then took a sip of water, smiled confidently, and said, "Who said you can't make cakes without flour?
The most important thing about desserts is not just sugar, but to make diners feel warm and hot! So this time...I'm going to make a fiery dessert! "
Hearing Sanji's words, Bebo became even more puzzled. He had never heard Leon talk about Sanji's philosophy. Leon's handling of desserts is also more mainstream. At most, add a little saltiness to stimulate the depth of desserts. tasty.
Sanji put his hands on the table at this time, constantly looking at the ingredients prepared by Totland, and constantly perfecting the temporary idea in his heart.
There are more than one ways to make a cake without flour, but the appearance is basically not very good. If it is covered with icing, it can be shaped like a normal cake, but...that's boring.
Therefore...not only the cake, but also the outerwear, all need to be ingenious, and soon, Sanji decided, that is...heavy cheesecake, and then covered with **** milk!
And it can't be a simple heavy cheesecake. That kind of cake, most people can't eat much at all. If they haven't fully realized the beauty, they will feel full and tired.
The power of cheese and milk can't be reconciled with a little lemon juice, so...there must be something more exciting, such as peppers and jams.
Then, adding the unconventional dessert **** jelly, which was already very greasy, Sanji can already imagine the taste like an egg **** that is baked just right, but still tender inside.
As for the flavor...it's up to him, the chef.
At this time, many chefs around also set their sights on Sanji. Just now, Sanji used barbecue to make them realize that this is an excellent chef.
And they also heard what Sanji just said, desserts that don't need flour, they all wanted to see how Sanji would solve the problem. As people watched, Sanji said to Bebo:
"I want ginger, cranberries, milk, cream cheese, butter, eggs, lemon, as many as I can."
After telling Bepo about the main ingredients, Sanji himself came to the condiment area. First of all, there were sugar, vanilla pods, black and white chocolate and the like that no one was surprised by.
But Sanji stood there and thought for a while, put the chocolate back, and then, amid the confusion of countless people, picked up more than a dozen kinds of chili peppers and chili powder, and ran back to his kitchen.
Everyone was stunned. Just now, Sanji asked Bebo to get the ginger, but they didn't quite understand it. Now they took a lot of chili peppers. Are you sure it's a dessert?
But Sanji ignored the confused gazes of the other chefs, and began to taste the chili powder and chili peppers he brought, his face flushed and his ears red, and he coughed again and again.
At this time, Bepo also got back the ingredients that Sanji needed. Sanji didn't care about his image, he quickly peeled off a lemon and chewed it with a ghastly face.
Then he drank some water, and the distortion on his face finally eased. He took many empty bowls and kept mixing the chili powder, and then tasted it again. Finally, he chose one from many combinations.
When the pepper with the highest uncertainty was determined, Sanji's speed suddenly accelerated, and he turned on the oven to preheat directly, and then peeled and cut the **** and lemon into pieces, and squeezed the juice separately.
His speed was getting faster and faster, and in the small kitchen, he had the effect of a phantom avatar, and Bebo, who was not instructed, also spontaneously boiled boiling water.
Although I don't know what Sanji wants to do, Bepo has been a helper in the kitchen of Zhanye Detachment for several years. Based on the ingredients of Sanji, he can judge what he should do.
With Bepo's help, Sanji's movements were not blocked at all. He melted the butter and cheese through the water, and at the same time began to boil the jam, and the heavy cheese cake and **** milk were double-sided.
However, even at his speed, the cake was sent to the oven after an hour of busy work. Jiang Zongnui was faster and had already begun to refrigerate.
After taking a look at the situation in the oven, Sanji lit a cigarette for himself and murmured, "I'm so tired, I won't do it again."
"Cough cough cough~"
Suddenly, the sound of coughing behind him made Sanji turn around, and his face instantly showed a speechless look, because Luffy was actually cleaning the ingredients.
The melted butter, cheese, boiled jam, and the rest of the milk all went into Luffy's stomach at this time, but this idiot... even ate chili powder, and was holding the island with tears flowing. coughing.
"Cough cough cough~"
At this time, there was also a coughing sound on the other side, and there were a few blue veins on Sanji's forehead.
A girl was also coughing with tears in her eyes. The corners of her mouth were red, indicating that she, like Luffy, stole Sanji's seasoning, but... how could Sanji be angry with this girl?
Throwing down the cigarette, he took a quick breath of his hands, then quickly picked up a leftover lemon, peeled and sliced it, and placed it on a plate. Then he walked gracefully to the girl and said softly:
"Eat some lemons, it will be much better."
"Thank you, cough, cough~ I'm sorry... Thank you."
The girl's face flushed red, and she didn't dare to look at Sanji, but quickly picked up two slices of lemon and put it in her mouth, and then her face was wrinkled with sourness.
Although he could only see a little bit of the girl's expression at this time, Sanji still showed a smile, but just as he was about to say something, an extremely hoarse voice came from behind him.
"Sanji....Sanji..."
Sanji looked back in dissatisfaction. At this time, his whole body was as red as a boiled lobster, his eyes were bulging, and he stretched out his hands. Luffy, who was like a life-threatening ghost, roared: "Spicy! Spicy!"
"You want to eat chili, right! You bastard!"
Noticing that the girl took advantage of him to turn around and escaped slowly, a nameless anger rose in Sanji's heart, he looked at the remaining chili peppers on the table, instantly put them in the same bowl, and then threw them into Luffy. mouth.
"no!!"
The terrifying hotness made Luffy, the rubber man, feel severe pain. His eyes quickly turned red, and then he fell straight and twitched on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Zoro, Nami, and the others covered their foreheads speechlessly, reflecting on how they had followed such a captain. Only Chopper, who was lying on the ground at this moment, seemed to be imitating Luffy.
After a long time, Luffy finally did it, his eyes were blank, his mouth was wide open, and saliva kept flowing from the corners of his mouth, but...it didn't matter anymore, because he couldn't feel anything anymore.
He has drank enough milk, but can't get rid of the spicy, he wants to learn Sanji and the girl eat lemon, but Sanji refuses, according to Sanji, only an idiot would eat lemon and uncooked at the same time milk.
Sanji looked melancholy at this time, staring at the direction where the girl just left, glanced at the oven from time to time, and even forgot to smoke the cigarette in his mouth.
After taking another look at the extinguished oven, he took out the cake like a soulless machine, and then stuffed it into the refrigerator to refrigerate.
"Bepo, the rest is up to you."
Sanji, who had no motivation, was next to Luffy, who also lost his soul. Bebo nodded. Sanji had already told him the rest of the finishing work, and it was not difficult.
The rock sugar was heated and melted in water, and then the **** milk was taken out, which was slightly stiff due to refrigeration, and then the **** milk was carved just enough for the heavy cheesecake to be embedded.
Then he checked the melted syrup, and the heavy cheesecake whose crust was slightly cold, unmoulded the cake, placed it on a pure white plate, covered with **** and milk, and almost melted into one color.
Take out the melted syrup, pour the syrup on some cold **** milk, cool it down quickly, and turn it into a crystal clear shell.
At this time, from the outermost icing, to the **** in the middle, to the heavy cheesecake in the center, the temperature has also been exchanged to a just right temperature.
Showing the finished product to Sanji, after Sanji nodded meaninglessly, Bepo also put the huge plate on the dining cart beside him.
The waiter carefully pushed the dining cart towards the Candy Castle in the distance.
At this time, in the Totland sea area, on the two parallel warships, Ace held two life papers and kept comparing them with a strange expression. Next to him, Luo, who was called over, asked with a puzzled look:
"What's wrong? Whose life paper is that? It looks like it's in the same place."
"It's Luffy and Sabo's."
Ace said, I don't know why, Luo Cong Ace's tone heard Sisi's sourness, as if the two brothers were hiding the feeling when they played together.
At this time, Luo also carefully looked at the life paper in Ace's hand, frowned, and said, "This is pointing to the cake island, right? I heard that today is the first day of the tea party, and they also went to join in the fun?"
"Tea party? What is that?"
Ace asked suspiciously, and Luo had a very strange expression on his face, saying: "The Charlotte family's marriage meeting, it seems... Luffy and Sabo may be getting married."
"Nani?!!"
Ace squeezed his face with both hands, looked at Luo in disbelief, and said, "Luo, are you joking? You must be joking? How old are they?
Also, what is going on with marrying a pirate? ! no! Absolutely not! "
Luo looked at Ace's frantic appearance, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Sabo is a revolutionary army, and now the revolutionary army desperately needs the help of major forces, and it might be a good idea to marry the Charlotte family.
And Luffy...isn't he recognized as a pirate by the world government? Isn't it normal for a pirate to marry a pirate? What's more, in the Charlotte family, many are not wanted.
Therefore, they may not be married to pirates. Maybe they are girls from the Charlotte family. Are they going to marry the revolutionary army and pirates? "
"No! No way!"
Ace continued to shake his head, while Luo smiled wickedly and said, "Then what are you going to do? Lieutenant General Skyler agreed that we would make a scene in the New World."
"But... Auntie said not to make too much noise in Totland..."
Ace shook his head, but Luo had no surprises. After all, he always used advance as retreat. If only one person blocked Ace, then with his character, it might be counterproductive.
But if he followed his words, then he himself would have noticed the key to some things, that is, Luo, who had known Ace for many years, could make good use of this.
Just when Luo thought that Ace's "wonderful idea" was restrained, Yamato suddenly said, "Then we can go and see first, and we don't have to go and do it."
"Yup!"
Ace's eyes suddenly lit up. Whoever said that going to Totland was making trouble, since it was a tea party, so... a little more guests, that's normal.
Seeing this abnormal pair of officers and adjutants, Luo twitched the corners of his mouth, then changed his mind and said, "But we can't get in without an invitation letter."
"Invitation... This is indeed a troublesome affair."
Touching his chin and thinking for a while, Ace looked at Luo and asked, "Who will receive the invitation letter?"
Luo thought for a while, weighed between talking and not talking, but still said: "Many, pirates, underground forces, and some chambers of commerce will receive invitations.
Those pirates who have been traveling around here in Totland recently should have obtained invitations to the tea party, but even if they knew who had the invitations, what would they do? "
"What can we do?" Ace smiled, then looked at Yamato and said, "Find the pirate closest to us, not the Big Mom Pirates!"
"okay!"
Yamato left excitedly, Luo looked at Ace, twitched the corners of his eyes, and said, "Are you... planning to grab it?"
"For the navy, can that be called robbery? That's...that's called executing justice! That's called collecting stolen goods!"
Ace said with a straight face, Luo directly rolled his eyes, and felt that Ace was indeed a "talent" from that family.
However, Luo still said: "But don't forget, the navy has never received an invitation letter. They must know about it, and... Invitation letters usually have invitees, and we are not."
"Never mind! I have an invitation, and if they won't let me in, that's their problem!"
Ace didn't care so much, and said loudly with his hands on his hips, looking at him, Luo suspected that Ace thought he had a good idea.
Luo sighed and said no more words of persuasion. After all, if he continued to persuade, it would only strengthen Ace's determination to go to Cake Island. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
What's more, Lieutenant General Skyler just said not to make too much trouble in Totland, but he didn't say that he couldn't make trouble in Totland, as long as he had time to limit the development of the situation a little.
Not long after, Yamato, who had just left, ran over again and said excitedly: "Ace, yes! Just about 20 nautical miles from us, there is a fleet coming from the West Sea, it seems that there are several Made up of pirates."
Ace was about to speak, but Luo frowned and asked, "Xihai? Which pirate groups are they?"
"I don't know, I didn't know about the Pirates of the Four Seas, but there is one that looks familiar, like the Eight Treasures Marines from the Land of Flowers?"
Yamato shook his head, and Luo frowned when he heard that it was the Eight Treasures Marine Corps. This is a country that has joined the World Government, and historical issues have made the Eight Treasures Marine Corps a legitimate pirate group.
However, the Eight Treasures Navy still has its particularity and cannot be arbitrarily...
But before Luo said anything, Ace said loudly: "Whoever he is! As long as it is a pirate, it is our goal! Let's go!"
"Yes, sir!"
