Food Wars: Live Broadcast in the Prison of Food

Chapter 96 Food Wars
Just after Soma Yukihira shouted.

Everyone present turned their attention to Soma Yukihira.

"Oh?"

Another shocking piece of news.

"I see, Yukihira Souma is your child, Seiichiro."

After taking a serious look at Soma Yukihira's appearance, Dojima Gin's eyes showed emotion. Ever since the first time they met and later when he saw the food Soma Yukihira made, he had a good impression of this young man. No wonder he always felt that there was something familiar about him.

If we were to say who was the most surprised person at the scene, it would undoubtedly be Erina Nakiri. She was quite uneasy, muttering to herself while clenching her fists.

"Is Yukihira Souma Uncle Saiba's son? How is that possible? There must be some mistake."

This guy who has no taste and can only cook low-quality dishes is actually Uncle Caibo's son?

It's so strange, it's all so strange.

She was quite shaken.
Yang Che took in everyone's reactions and found it a little funny.

When I was watching the anime, I thought it was very interesting every time Soma Yukihira's identity was discovered. I have to say that Japanese anime often pays a lot of attention to bloodline, or having a great predecessor.

For example, when Luffy revealed in front of his friends that his grandfather was the legendary navy man Garp, and when Sakura discovered that Naruto was the orphan of the Fourth Hokage, everyone's reactions were quite funny.

This kind of scene, which I had only seen in anime before, is quite interesting to see with my own eyes.

However, compared with the previous two, Soma Yukihira did not inherit any talents or legacy from his father. He has no special talents, and his ability to become one of the world's top players in the later period of the original work is basically entirely due to his down-to-earth efforts.

This is something that Yang Che admired him for.

Cai Bo Chaoyang looked at the surprised red-haired young man with interest.

"So, he is Yukihira Soma."

My "brother".
The guy who caused Seiichiro to leave me
Once upon a time, he was born in the slums of the northern United States and depended on his alcoholic mother for survival.

Although his mother often got drunk and angry with him, she was his only relative and he always endured it silently.

It was not until he was seven years old that he lost his last relative after his mother passed away. He was taken to an orphanage for adoption, and it was at that time that he met the man Seiichiro.

At that time, a friend of Seiichiro organized a charity event, one of the activities was to cook dishes for the children in the welfare home. It was the first time for him to eat such delicious and warm meals.

It was at that time that he would follow Seiichiro who would come from time to time to go to the market, fields, and ranches to purchase goods, and was taught many things. It was from that time that he embarked on the journey of gourmet food.

Although he had always called the other person by his first name and had never told him personally, in his heart, Seiichiro had always been praised as his father.
It was not until he was fifteen that his "father" left him completely.

The reason is that his wife passed away and he has to take care of his young children, so he can no longer travel around.
That was the first time he learned the name of Seiichiro's son.
Soma Yukihira
On the night that Seiichiro left, he silently chewed over the name over and over again while holding the knife that Seiichiro had given him as a parting gift.

Negative emotions almost overwhelmed him.

Why is it that I am not Seiichiro's son?
Why can't I be you, Soma Yukihira?
Cai Bo narrowed his eyes towards Chaoyang.

Although it happened much earlier than expected.

He originally planned to defeat Seiichiro first to prove his strength, and then defeat Soma Yukihira to prove that he was better than him.

Since we have encountered it now, it is not bad to defeat it in advance.
"Soma Yukihira."

He slowly said:

"You guys at Totsuki have a special way of cooking, right? Do you want to compete? Let's use the food we prepared this time." "If I win, you will give me the kitchen knife in your hand. How about that?"

He did not mention the consequences of losing, as if in his mind he would never fail.
"Shokugeki.?"

Several chefs present frowned slightly. Asking a cook to hand over his kitchen knife was undoubtedly a provocative act.

This behavior reminded Erina Nakiri of a first-year chef who was quite capable and was known as a tracking master.

His habit is to collect the kitchen knives of his defeated opponents and take their treasured possessions.

This person has no good intentions.

Nakiri Erina bit her lip in some confusion, but finally spoke:
"Yukihira-kun, there's no need to agree to this."

"The rules of Shokugeki only apply within Totsuki Academy. He is a foreigner, so he doesn't need to pay attention to the Shokugeki requirements."

"And the other party didn't make a comparable bet."

"Oh? I didn't expect that, Nakiri, you actually care about others."

Soma Yukihira had a surprised expression on his face and made click-of-the-tsk sounds.

When Erina Nakiri got angry and shouted "You're so annoying!"

Yukihira Soma took off the headscarf in his hand, and as the headscarf fluttered, he said with a smile:

"Thank you for your kindness, but this food battle is just what I want!"

He never refuses other people's cooking competition requests.
Soma Yukihira looked at Saiba Chaoyang seriously and said:
"I accept this food battle!"

"I also want to try to see what abilities you have as a guy who claims to be my father's son and disciple."

"If I win, tell me about your past with Dad!"

"Haha, no problem! That's exactly what we should do!" Cai Bo Chaoyang agreed readily.

"Since you have such a plan and there happen to be three judges, then this assessment will be based on a scoring system."

"All four of you will participate in the scoring. Let me think about it. The one with the highest score will have the opportunity to receive a special reward."

"You two, is there any problem?"

Yang Che went along with it and said that although the outcome seemed to be no suspense, according to Dojima Gin, the knife in Saiba Chaoyang's hand at the moment seemed to be the knife that Yukihira Joichiro used to use.

Considering the original plot, this was probably the period when Saiba Makoto Saito was at his most ambitious when he was in school, and he had the ability to win the championship of THE BULE.

Although he had somewhat forgotten why he was able to obtain Yukihira Seiichirō's sword during this period, Saiba Chaoyang, with the power of the cross sword, held his sword and "copied" Saiba Seiichirō's experience and talent, plus the experience carried by the other sword.

During this period, Soma Yukihira's winning rate was close to zero.
But maybe this kid Soma Yukihira can give him a surprise.

On the one hand, the physical fitness improvement brought by the ingredients from the other world, and unlike Soma Yukihira and Chaoyang Saiba who had only briefly tried some of the ingredients from the devil-horned crocodile, he had fifteen days and sufficient time to experiment with the ingredients, plus his on-the-spot innovation, may be the key to narrowing the gap.

He also wanted to see whether the food cooked by Si Yingshi, who had awakened to the true ability to hear the voice of ingredients, would fail miserably when faced with the cross sword power, just like in the original story?

Wait a minute, can the cross knife replicate the sound of the ingredients? Yang Che fell into deep thought.

Although he was a little helpless about Yang Che's decision to give a special reward to the first place, and although he didn't know what the reward was, it would be great if someone from their Totsuki faction got it. Nakiri Managi and Nakiri Senzaemon, who were asked by him, naturally had no objection.

Ah. Maze rice.
