Chapter 308
Li Xiao smiled faintly,
and casually replied:
"When we arrived, I saw these fish and shrimp looked quite tasty, so I just collected a few!"
A few?
I'm afraid you misunderstand the meaning of "a few"!
The ingredient reserves in the restaurants on Cute Street probably aren't as abundant as yours!
If I hadn't seen you just came from the Yunhe Road,
I'd seriously suspect you raided a restaurant!
After a long silence,
Conis's father finally accepted the fact that he no longer needed to buy ingredients,
then, looking at the mountain of various ingredients piled before him,
he bitterly smiled and said:
"With so many ingredients, I can't process them all by myself!"
Hearing this,
Li Xiao immediately waved his hand again,
and said:
"Don't worry, we brought our own chefs, and there are two of them!"
Hearing Li Xiao's words,
Robin, standing nearby, couldn't help but turn her face black!
At this very moment,
she really wanted to sit on top of Li Xiao's head,
lean close to his ear, and shout with all her might: "I'm an archaeologist, really not a cook!"
Of course,
Robin could only think about such behavior in the end!
After all,
given the gap in strength between her and Li Xiao,
if she really did that,
she would most likely be grabbed down by Li Xiao,
then pinned on his lap and given a set of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms to her buttocks,
with Robin completely powerless to resist throughout the entire process!
In the end,
Robin still did not enter the kitchen,
preserving her identity as an archaeologist!
The reason was simple:
Zeff voluntarily took on all the cooking work for this meal!
Although Zeff had never cooked these Sky Island specialty ingredients before,
it must be said that,
in terms of culinary skills,
Zeff was absolutely a top-tier chef!
Under the simple guidance of Conis's father,
Zeff quickly mastered the cooking methods for these ingredients,
and could even occasionally add a touch of innovation!
With Zeff's constant busy work,
waves of meat aroma drifted from the kitchen!
Before long,
spicy crayfish, steamed flying fish, and the like were successively served!
Even before eating,
just by their color and aroma,
they were no worse than the food Li Xiao had eaten in the restaurants on Cute Street of Angel Island before!
Facing such a meal,
after many twists and turns,
and traveling far and wide,
the Sky Island delicacies finally placed completely before him,
Li Xiao did not hesitate for a moment,
but immediately picked up his chopsticks and started eating!
…………
After the meal,
Li Xiao leaned back slightly,
half-closed his eyes,
with a look of complete satisfaction on his face!
Just like that, this "simple and unpretentious" Sky Island feast,
he still couldn't eat it in peace!
After traveling through many places,
spending over a month,
nearly two months in total,
circling around the entire first half of the Grand Line,
and returning to Sky Island once more,
he finally managed to continue this meal!
Recalling The Journey's Experience,
Li Xiao felt a bit heartache for a moment!
He just wanted to have a meal,
yet it turned into some 2.8-going-to-the-West-to-fetch-the-sutras nonsense,
having to endure eighty-one trials along the way!
As a dedicated foodie,
yet never able to eat the meal he wanted,
this was simply a disgrace!
For the sake of this one Sky Island feast,
Li Xiao killed a self-proclaimed god wannabe,
slaughtered two so-called descendants of the Creator imbeciles,
and casually racked up a bounty of 3.5 billion Beri!
In the end, after all that fuss,
the ingredients brought from Sky Island,
damn it, were brought right back to Sky Island!
What a sight — a small knife slicing open the butt, truly an eye-opener!
But,
no matter what,
now,
this "simple and unpretentious" Sky Island feast,
had ultimately and truly made it into Li Xiao's belly!
