Chapter 408 The King of Cooking Competition
The fresh fish that Tsukasa Kadoya and Takumi Onoue caught were brought back to the coffee shop and placed on the kitchen counter.

When Misora ​​saw the fresh and plump fish, her eyes lit up and her face beamed with excitement: "Wow, fish! And each one is so big and fresh!"

Upon hearing Misora's words, Onoue Takumi smiled faintly, then turned to Kadoya Tsukasa and softly suggested, "Tsukasa, how about we have a cooking competition?"

Upon hearing this, Tsukasa Kadoya scoffed and waved his hand dismissively, "Boring."

But just then, a confident yet gentle voice suddenly rang out from the doorway: "Since you're feeling bored, how about I have a cooking contest with you?"

Everyone turned around at the sound and saw Tendou Souji slowly walking into the kitchen.

His face was calm and confident, as if the atmosphere in the entire kitchen had become more lively because of his arrival.

When Onoue saw Tendou Souji appear, his smile became even warmer and more cheerful: "Oh? Since you brought it up, let's have a cooking competition and see whose creative fish dish is better."

Tendou Souji smiled and nodded in response: "Alright, let's give it a try then."

As soon as they finished speaking, Takumi Onoue and Souji Tendou almost simultaneously took out their own sharp kitchen knives from their respective meal kits.

The atmosphere in the coffee shop kitchen suddenly became both serious and enthusiastic.
It was as if a fierce duel was about to unfold.

Takumi Ogami placed the fresh, large fish on the counter, his gaze focused and sharp as he stared at the ingredients before him.

He exhaled softly, then swiftly and precisely used a sharp kitchen knife to cut off the fish head, tail, and bones. His movements were skilled and fluid, without the slightest hesitation.

"You didn't come here just to have a cooking contest with me, did you?"

As Ogami Takumi finished speaking, he took out various fresh seasonal vegetables and spices that he had prepared in advance, quickly cut the fish into paper-thin, transparent slices, and gently laid them out on the cooking plate.

The fish meat shimmered with a lustrous sheen under the light, making it incredibly tempting.

After a brief pause, Takumi mixes a special yuzu juice, chopped perilla leaves, and a pinch of rose salt to create a delicate and refreshing sauce, which he then gently sprinkles over the thin slices of fish, allowing each piece to evenly absorb the subtle flavor.

Tendou Souji smiled.
He watched as Ogami skillfully manipulated the situation.
At this moment, Takumi Oogami simmers the neatly cut fish bones into a clear, amber-like, delicious broth!
Then slowly pour it into the shallow bottom around the cooking plate, so that the fish fillets appear to float on a transparent amber ocean, creating a stunning visual effect.

As a final touch, he garnished the dish with tender green basil leaves, fresh radish sprouts, mint leaves, and a small amount of fresh lemon zest, scattering them lightly on the surface of the plate.

A plate of grapefruit-scented amber fish fillets, as exquisite as a work of art, is now complete.

The people in the coffee shop gazed at the dreamlike culinary creation in Onoue's hands and immediately began to exclaim in admiration.

"So beautiful!"

Misora's eyes sparkled; she couldn't wait to take a bite.

At this moment, Tendou Souji finally spoke up: "I'm actually quite curious about how you and Inui Takumi will resolve your respective grudges."

"I haven't thought about this issue yet. Perhaps I can wait until after we destroy Hollow Zi-O."

"Hollow Zi-O"

With his head bowed, Tendou Souji slowly raised the culinary knife in his hand, his movements graceful and elegant. With a single stroke, he split the fresh fish in half, then precisely separated the flesh from the bones, removing two neat, large pieces of fish meat. Next, he marinated the fish meat briefly, quickly soaking it in a seasoning sauce made with fresh ginger juice, rice wine, white pepper, and a touch of his unique soy sauce.

Then, he took out a piece of snow-white lotus root, skillfully cut it into delicate thin slices, and then laid these thin lotus root slices on the bottom of the fish meat, forming a unique layout of fish meat and lotus root slices.

"As a god in the Kabuto world, his cooking is still outstanding."

"Grandma once said that the time spent enjoying delicious food is happy, but the time spent waiting for the food to be ready is the happiest."

He then took out some bamboo shoot tips, purple beetroots, and green asparagus. These colorful vegetables were carefully cut into even sizes and cleverly embedded into the gaps between the fish meat.

Next, Tendou Souji gently wrapped the fish and vegetables in the bamboo leaves he had prepared, and then tied them tightly with a thin thread to lock in the aroma and moisture of the dish.

The fish, wrapped in bamboo leaves, is placed in a specially prepared steamer and steamed precisely at the correct temperature and time to ensure that the ingredients are cooked through but not mushy, resulting in a delicious flavor.

During this process, Takumi wipes the surrounding area.
After steaming, Tendou Souji opened the bamboo leaves with a ceremonial gesture, and immediately hot steam and aroma wafted out. The fish, meat and vegetables were brightly colored and extremely tempting.

At this moment, everyone in the coffee shop crowded around to carefully appreciate the exquisite dishes prepared by Takumi Onoe and Souji Tendou.

Tsukasa Kadoya stood aside, silently watching Takumi Onoue and Souji Tendo engage in a cooking competition.

A hint of disdain shone through his calm gaze, and a slight snort escaped his lips.

"Hmph, you two seem to be having a lot of fun?"

"However, don't get too cocky."

Before he finished speaking, Tsukasa Kadoya walked leisurely to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves slightly, and picked up the third fresh fish with a graceful and effortless movement.

He quickly and accurately picked up the kitchen knife, the sharp blade nimbly and rapidly slicing across the fish's body, cleaning away the scales and innards with fluid and natural movements, showing no sign of unfamiliarity.

Yusuke Onodera stared at the scene in surprise, his face full of curiosity and confusion: "Ashi, so you can cook too?"

Without even looking up, Tsukasa Kadoya continued his fluid movements, skillfully slicing the fish into even and beautiful thin slices.

"Don't forget, I'm just a passing Kamen Rider, I'm all-powerful."

After he finished speaking, he glanced provocatively at Onoue Takumi and Tendou Souji, who were focused on cooking, and then his cooking speed increased even more.

It was as if the entire kitchen of the coffee shop had become a silent yet incredibly intense battlefield for the three of them.

Soon, the coffee shop door was pushed open.
Hidetoshi Ukiyo appeared
Onoue Takumi looked up at Ukiyo Hidetoshi: "Are you here to participate in the cooking competition too?"

Ukiyo Hidetoshi; "???"

He had just arrived in the Nine Realms from the Extreme Fox World seeking support, and had successfully located Onoue Takumi's whereabouts.

However, upon entering the coffee shop, I saw three people preparing fish for the competition.
He was a little slow to react.
