1: Captives of gastronomy and secret seasonings

Rustling...

A cold wind blew, and the sand and dust shredded on the ground were swept up by the wind, and the cold wind even formed a small tornado on this empty desert, compared to the heat of the day, the desert temperature at night was extremely low, and the huge difference in temperature was harvesting life all the time.

But in this harsh environment, traces of tents and bonfires can be seen.

"I'm moving!"

The blue-haired man was the first to pick up the unidentified piece of meat that had been cooked, and then swallowed it in a gulp in an almost sucking fashion.

"Delicious, Zebra, what are you doing? It's time to enter the Red Desert Labyrinth area tomorrow, won't you come to replenish your strength?"

The Red Desert Labyrinth, a desert that surrounds the food pyramid, has even been said to have the blood of countless food hunters dyed red because they died in it.

Among them, the food pyramid is known as one of the seven incredible places in the world, and the three people here are the people who have gone forward with the goal of the food pyramid: Ah Yu and Zebra in the Four Heavenly Kings of Food, and Ah Yu's partner Komatsu.

"Something's coming."

Zebra's ears moved, and his eyes looked to the other side of the dune, his own ability was related to sound waves, and his hearing was quite special, even if he was far away, he could detect something strange.

"Indeed, it doesn't look small."

Ah Yu watched the grit at his feet begin to vibrate, and also stood up, while Komatsu stood behind the two quite consciously.

Rumble!

A short time later, with a bang, a huge sandworm emerged from the desert.

"It's a ham sandworm! Zebra, this is edible! And it tastes pretty good..."

"It's not this, it's more!"

Zebra stopped Ah Lu, who was trying to catch the ingredients, and looked at the back of the giant sandworm.

"Stop! Don't you want to eat me? Then don't run!"

With a burst of exasperation, a pretty voice came from there, followed by an even more menacing aura, and Yamato jumped up from behind in a desert adventure outfit, and then smashed his fist on the top of the sandworm's head.

A strange force entered the sandworm's body, and then the power of extreme cold began to spread in its body, and with the cold wind in the desert, the sandworm's body gradually became stiff, and finally fell to the ground with a bang.

"Excuse me, are you camping here?"

The person who knocked down the giant sandworm with one punch was naturally Yamato, and soon after the Pokémon Carnival ended, she began her own spiritual journey to defeat Kaido, and this was her first stop, belonging to the world of food captivity.

In a sense, this is not even a pure otherworld, but has a slight connection to the sea where she was born.

This desert was her first stop, but the sandworm had chosen the wrong prey, and by the time it found out that it was the prey, it was too late.

"Good... It's so high..."

After Yamato came to the ground, Komatsu realized how exaggerated the size of the woman in front of him was, among the three of them, Zebra was the tallest, reaching 2.55 meters, but in front of Yamato, who was close to three meters, Zebra was also a little shorter.

As for the horns on his head, Komatsu at this time thought it was just an ornament.

"My name is Yamato, can you sell me some barbecue over there? It smells good."

Yamato itself also has the characteristics of self-familiarity, and the chance encounter in the desert is also a kind of fate in her opinion, and she is attracted by the smell and directly proposes a deal.

When she went out, she carried a lot of precious metals with her, after all, such items are relatively valuable in most worlds, even if there is a gold planet in the food world, the price of gold has not collapsed.

"This... Aren't you going to cook this ham sandworm?"

Listening to Yamato's words, Ah Yu instead pointed to the sandworm behind Yamato, when carrying out the work of food hunting, Ah Yu has his own principles, if you don't kill for the sake of eating, it is his rule to eat once you kill.

Of course, he didn't

This idea is applied to all strangers, and only the senseless killing of the Gourmet Society will arouse his disgust.

are all taken as prey, and it is very reasonable to fight back.

It's just that Yamato's simple killing is strange in his eyes, and he is obviously hungry but gives up the higher-grade food he has in hand.

"Can you eat this?" You've got to have a cook, so make a deal, you cook it, and we'll split it equally."

"Don't you know how to cook? Of course that's fine, Komatsu, please."

"Leave it to me, Mr. Ayu, and I'll take care of it."

......

The food opened the way, and Yamato and Ah Yu initially established some exchanges, and as Komatsu prepared the food, they also learned about the purpose of each other's trip through simple small talk.

"You mean, you want to get stronger through combat?"

"Yes, you two also feel very strong, do you want to take a look at the competition?"

As we all know, with Oda's update, Kaido's gold content is still increasing, so if you want to defeat Kaido, Yamato can only use Kaido's way, after all, fighting is the fastest way to become stronger.

According to Kaido's logic, as long as you don't die, so many near-death times will always get stronger, of course, the premise is that there is a body that can withstand the destruction, otherwise you will die early.

"Fight? I'd love to..."

"Zebra, this is not the place to fight."

"Cut."

According to Zebra's character, he will not follow Ayu's advice, he has a bad temper not long after he was released from prison, but he now has an agreement with Komatsu, so he will still acquiesce to some of Ayu's ideas, at least until the hunt reaches the goal of this time.

"Mr. Ayu, Mr. Zebra, Miss Yamato, the ham sandworm is ready.

This one without chili peppers is yours by Miss Yamato."

Although he was small compared to the sandworm, Komatsu was able to easily finish cooking this behemoth, and compared to a food hunter like Ayu, Komatsu was weak, but in terms of physical strength and strength, he was too much beyond ordinary people.

"Unbelievable, that thing smells like this."

The appearance is a worm, but the taste is top-notch honey ham, and she can't find anything wrong with it, except that the first impression makes Yamato unable to associate it with eating.

Most of the strange food on the sea stays in plants, such as the peculiar flora of the Boeing Islands, where all kinds of bizarre creatures in the food world do not appear, let alone this kind of sandworm that seems difficult to associate with food.

However, in this world, if the level of acceptance is not high, it is best not to delve into what part of the creature is eating.

Before today, Yamato had never imagined that the mucus in the sandworm's body could be turned into a honey-like sauce after special treatment.

"It's the effect of quick freezing, the ham sandworm needs to be quickly frozen at a low temperature when it is captured, in order to achieve this effect, Miss Yamato, your strength just freezes it perfectly, this is simply a natural refrigerator."

"Your cooking skills are also great, but there seems to be some peculiar smell in this sweetness..."

"Eh, how could it be... Oh no, it's sugar! The sugar at night changes the taste because of the temperature... I'm sorry, I'm going to remake a rework, there should be other candy to use..."

The sand sugar here refers to the yellow sand in the desert, but this sand is very special and can be used as sugar.

"Sugar? Then you can try this, this is the highest quality sugar in my house."

With that, Yamato rummaged through his satchel and took out a bottle of pink powdered object.

"What? Weird, isn't it? I'm just not good at cooking, it's okay to simply cook it, go camping... Of course, you have to prepare a complete set for your practice."

Looking at Komatsu, who was slightly sluggish, Yamato thought he was curious about this kind of thing.

"No, it's just that I've never seen candy like this."

Komatsu shook his head, and he had it in his heart

An indescribable feeling, except that there seemed to be some longing for this powdered sugar in his heart.

As he opened the jar, Ah Lu's nose twitched twice.

"This smell..."

First, he ate the giant ham meat the size of a calf in his hand, and then he teleported to Yamato's side.

"That candy, can you let me try it first?"

Because of the food cells in their bodies, these powerful food hunters have to consume a considerable amount of calories from the outside world every day, and food has always been a vital thing in their cognition.

Moreover, some foods will also resonate with the cells in their body, prompting the evolution of their gourmet cells, and once the idea of eating something arises, it often means something very special.

"Whatever you want, it's just some powdered sugar."

Those pink things are the secret seasoning - sweet, and as the power of Arceus completely affects the entire sea, some areas also begin to give birth to this special seasoning, which is essentially a wonderful combination of minerals and plants, and is as mysterious as Pokémon.

However, in Onishima, there is a batch of secret seasonings created and spawned by Arceus himself, that is, the batch in Yamato's hand, according to the food world, it is the same type of thing, and the capture level is also different.

There is no doubt that the batch in Yamato's hands is the one with the highest level of capture.

Ah Lu's sense of smell is unusually developed, even more powerful than that of dogs, and at this time, the sweet smell has already entered his brain, and he poured some of it into the palm of his hand, and after a brief observation, Ah Yu poured them directly into his mouth.

"Wow, will you guys here still shine? I've never seen anything like that."

"Have the gastronomy cells evolved? It's an exaggerated food luck."

Looking at Ah Yu, who was faintly fluorescent, Zebra counted all this in Ah Yu's food luck, but judging from the degree of luminescence, the secret seasoning-sweet did not fit him particularly well.

"This taste... Can you ask where you found this sugar, it's to my liking, is it a high-level catch?"
