Takeshi Wakatsuki was not a picky eater.
Especially when hungry, he generally felt he could eat any normal food-of course, it would be even better if it tasted good.
That's why he was curious about the cooking of Jaden, the World's Number One Chef.
And then...
He tasted the most unpleasant thing he had ever eaten until now!
"I, this, you..."
Takeshi Wakatsuki immediately showed a very pained expression after putting the grilled meat in his mouth. He gagged several times but couldn't throw up, eventually sticking his finger into his mouth and finally pulling out the piece of grilled meat that had been stuck to his tongue!
But even so, despite constantly rinsing his mouth, that taste still lingered prominently.
And Takeshi Wakatsuki was not a chef or a gourmand like Erina and the others; he didn't even know how to describe this unpleasant feeling.
It wasn't until a long time later, after gradually recovering from the taste, that he finally gave his evaluation.
"That taste... it was like being punched by you at full force!"
He looked at Jaden and gave this evaluation.
Agito Kanoh, sitting on the side, was somewhat curious.
"Does the taste have that much impact... but you just took that piece of meat out of your mouth, so shouldn't it be unpleasant?"
Hearing Agito Kanoh say this, Takeshi Wakatsuki sighed.
"I'm not talking about the impact... I mean that one bite of grilled meat gave me the feeling of being on the brink of death from a full-force punch from this guy, Yuki, but my mind was still clearly aware that I was alive..."
Takeshi Wakatsuki felt he wasn't being clear when he said this, but he truly didn't know what else to say. He could only sigh again, then looked at Jaden.
"Is this the cooking of the World's Number One Chef?"
Jaden noticed Takeshi Wakatsuki's gaze and shrugged.
"You saw it just now; I was standing this far away, completely uninvolved in your preparation process, yet I still made the grilled meat taste like that-ultimately, the World's Number One Chef is not a title voted in by seniority and connections, but a title I won through Shokugeki (food war)."
Therefore...
"As long as I can make food that tastes better than this stuff, then I am the World's Number One Chef, right?"
Hearing Jaden say this, Takeshi Wakatsuki couldn't help but curl his lip.
"I see... in that case, if someone wins a Shokugeki against you, and then you go and kill him, I think with your fighting power, you could even become the God of Cooking."
Takeshi Wakatsuki mocked Jaden sarcastically, but Jaden righteously waved his hand at him.
"Please, I don't want to be the God of Cooking; I'm not pursuing that!"
Ah, this...
Huh!
Takeshi Wakatsuki shook his head and sighed. Although he had no appetite, he still picked up the grilled meat and started eating.
After all, this was Dinosaur Island, and he had to maintain his strength no matter what.
Jaden saw him like this and watched him for a few more moments.
-He's not angry even with that?
As expected...
Jaden now had a decent understanding of the few people who had come to Dinosaur Island with him.
Gensai Kuroki probably understood the fighting style against dinosaurs that he had mentioned earlier, but his physical condition was not at a monstrous level, so even if he understood, he would need a lot of practice to truly grasp it, but overall, it wouldn't be a big problem.
Agito Kanoh, Ohma, and Raian Kure-these three were inherently aggressive, so they probably wouldn't have any problems either.
Only Takeshi Wakatsuki...
This guy's aggressiveness was too low!
This was also related to their fighting style.
Takeshi Wakatsuki was the kind of fighter who primarily relied on experience and tactics, so even in his seemingly most enraged moments, he could often maintain a calm mind.
This was his strength, and also his weakness.
If he couldn't temporarily put aside that calmness, then fighting a dinosaur wouldn't be an easy feat.
Jaden clearly knew that the five of them coming with him was ultimately to become stronger.
He didn't mind guiding them a bit.
Of course, he wouldn't deliberately stop to instruct others.
So...
-The following will be hell, everyone~
After eating their fill and allowing some time for digestion, Raian Kure and Ohma, the ones who couldn't sit still, stood up again.
"Let's go look for dinosaurs-those large Triceratops are probably still too much, but we can try testing with smaller dinosaurs."
Hearing them say this, Takeshi Wakatsuki sighed again.
"I don't think that's a good idea; those small dinosaurs also..."
Before Takeshi Wakatsuki could finish his sentence, Agito Kanoh interrupted him.
"Wakatsuki is right! Going to look for small dinosaurs with that mindset-when will we ever get stronger!?"
Saying this, Agito Kanoh once again displayed his bestial grin.
"If we're going to look, we should continue to look for large dinosaurs like that, to feel and experience the struggle between life and death!"
Hearing Agito Kanoh say this, Ohma, who had initially proposed the idea, was startled, then thoughtfully nodded.
He suddenly remembered when he was training Niko Style: Demonsbane; the previous Niko had directly thrown him into the forest, forcing him to undergo extreme training...
And Raian Kure burst into loud laughter.
"That's right, if you fight with weaklings for too long, you'll become a weakling yourself!"
Seeing the three reckless individuals once again agree on a plan for recklessness, Takeshi Wakatsuki felt that he hadn't been clear enough before!
He felt that he absolutely had to express his thoughts more clearly this time!
So, after quickly organizing his words, he immediately presented his viewpoint!
"No, I don't think we need to go looking for dinosaurs!"
This time, he didn't mention that the mission was to steal eggs or anything, but stated his opinion first, so as not to be misinterpreted again by Agito Kanoh, the 'master of reading comprehension'!
And Agito Kanoh certainly didn't misinterpret this time.
He, Ohma, and Raian Kure all looked over, seemingly unable to understand Takeshi Wakatsuki's words.
But before they or Wakatsuki could speak, Jaden, while eating grilled meat, interjected.
"I agree with Takeshi Wakatsuki's idea, too."
Huh!?
Hearing Jaden say this, not only Agito Kanoh and the other two, but even Gensai Kuroki, who had been silent, turned his gaze toward him.
Jaden noticed their gaze. He swallowed a bite of meat, the corner of his mouth turned up, and he showed a very happy smile.
"Although I don't advocate putting everything into your brain during a fight, it's a good idea to think more when you're not fighting and not be so reckless."
Hearing Jaden say this, Takeshi Wakatsuki nodded repeatedly.
"Exactly!"
-Please, control these reckless fools!
Takeshi Wakatsuki roared internally, and Jaden spoke again, under Takeshi Wakatsuki's expectant gaze.
"Perhaps only Wakatsuki noticed-we just killed a Triceratops, and when we processed it, we spilled blood everywhere. You don't think that just because we haven't found a Tyrannosaurus Rex on this island, it means there are no carnivorous dinosaurs at all, do you?"
Saying this, Jaden wiped his mouth, then stood up.
"Do we need to look for dinosaurs-their noses are much more sensitive than ours, and their perception of danger is stronger. It's just that we made a fire, and they were also observing the situation, so they didn't rush out immediately."
"And if there really is no Tyrannosaurus Rex on this island, or if the Tyrannosaurus Rex is not frequently active, then the Triceratops is probably the strongest-so those medium and small carnivorous dinosaurs, if they are not good at hiding or don't move in groups, it would be very difficult for them to survive."
"But likewise... precisely because it's hard to survive, they won't pass up any opportunity for a full meal."
"Wakatsuki must have noticed this long ago, which is why he deliberately bled the Triceratops when processing it, and didn't remove the smell of the blood. He planned from that moment on to use those creatures that were attracted to test his skills after eating and drinking to his fill!"
-I did not! I don't! Don't make things up!
Hearing Jaden say this, Takeshi Wakatsuki, who had been smiling a moment ago, stopped smiling.
Conversely, Raian Kure and the others were startled, then all showed a slight smile.
"As expected of you, Mr. Wakatsuki!"
Ohma looked on guardedly and complimented Takeshi Wakatsuki.
And Agito Kanoh also smiled and nodded at Takeshi Wakatsuki.
"It seems you are no longer the young tiger you once were."
Even Raian Kure curled his lip, rarely complimenting someone else.
"-You actually have some brains."
Gensai Kuroki even gave him an extra look.
With the approval of the four of them and Jaden's smiling expression, Takeshi Wakatsuki also cautiously guarded his surroundings, feeling like his blood pressure was rising again!
However, he had to be vigilant now and couldn't be bothered to explain anything.
He was tired; let the world be destroyed already!
