A few weeks passed just like this.
Hiro went to teach at the school and did his thing.
One day
Zerotwo told him she was invited as a guest chef for the training camp at the Totsuki resort! Hiro jumped and said "Hey! I'm working that event too!" She smiled happily and said "Yay! We can go together!" Hiro said "But the restaurant... I can stay."
Zerotwo pouted and said "What's the point of a vacation if we're not together?" Hiro felt warm and smiled "You're such a good wife, come here. Give me a hug!" he spread his arms and chased her around as she giggled.
In the end, they closed the restaurant, going on a vacation for a few days.
The customers could only sigh, the food was too good, they were addicted. They could handle it for a bit but too long? They might just die.
Hiro and Zerotwo arrived at the resort and were greeted by a bear hug from Gin! He stepped back and smiled happily "You're both here! Haha! I haven't seen you both in like 19 years!" Hiro smiled and said "What's up, Gin." Zerotwo just simply smiled, Gin laughed out loud and said "GREAT! I mean, it's been a little lonely since I don't get to see either of you or Joe anymore."
He sighed thinking about this but he picked up right away, saying with a chipper tone "Now that we're together again, this will be fun! I haven't gotten to eat your food even once since you left!" He rubbed his hands and sneered "I hope you've improved. This Gin has improved leaps and bounds! I'm no longer the Gin of the past!"
Hiro sneered "Yeah? You sure you want to be humiliated again?" Gin laughed in anger and butted heads with Hiro sneering "Let's go pretty boy! I don't believe it! Best chef in the world?! What a joke! I've beat you 532 times!"
Hiro was so angry he laughed instead and fired back "Oho!? You must've forgotten how you got your ass handed to you 751 times!" Gin rolled up his sleeves and Zerotwo laughed, pulling on Hiro's arm, saying helplessly "You're both going to fight in the parking lot?" as she shook her head.
Gin and Hiro looked around before coughing and saying "So... You have a kitchen here?" Gin replied "The best." Hiro nodded and said "It better be nice, after all, you're going to lose in it so..." Gin felt a vein pop up on his forehead and they walked into the resort.
The students were getting there the next morning so they had a night to fight intensely.
Zerotwo watched form the side as the other guest chefs and teachers watched. A man with reddish hair and glasses, said "Is that..." the other chefs gulped and said "I think it is!" the rest just sucked in a cold breath of air and watched.
Hiro grinned and rolled up his sleeves, sneering "Pick the theme, kid. I'm ready to wipe the floor with you!" Gin sneered back and said "Easy! Curry!" Hiro jumped and said "You can't be!" Gin chuckled "I have been researching for years for this moment! This is my comeback, baby!"
Hiro chuckled and said "Fuck it! Let's go!" Gin and Hiro stood still before moving at the same time, taking out ingredients and starting to cook. The other chefs were stunned and felt the heat! It was a showdown between a dragon and tiger! A true chef's duel!
Incredible!
Hiro laughed as he cut the potatoes, saying "Look at that, little silver has practiced!" Gin almost threw the knife at Hiro, that name wasn't something he wanted to hear ever again... Hiro laughed and continued cutting, humming to himself as he cooked his food.
A while later
Hiro had a bowl, covered with a dome lid, only steam and smoke visible inside. This was a very special curry dish he just came up with right now, the effect would be ruined if it was seen right away. Gin had the same.
The duo looked at the domes and snorted, they had the same thought 'This bastard is copying me!'
They walked to the judges table.
They chose three random chefs and laid down their dishes at the same time.
Hiro and Gin lifted the domes at the same time.
The chef's eyes bulged out of their sockets looking at the dishes!
Hiro had a giant dragon with potato scales and rice wings with meat horns, teeth, and claws! It was even spewing red curry sauce! The judges rubbed their eyes and looked at the dragon, was this even possible!?
They looked at Gin and there was a majestic tiger with thin potato strands as hair, the body was made of rice and the highlights were made of meat. it's paws and jaws were covered in blood-like sauce!
Gina nd Hiro sneered at each other, while the judges were just too shocked to say anything.
First of all, they didn't even know this was possible.
Secondly, they didn't even know this was possible.
And finally, they didn't even know this was possible.
How could they possibly judge this?!
THEY DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THIS WAS POSSIBLE?!
Kojiro, who was coincidentally one of the judges, said "How is this possible."
...
This guy was asking the real questions here.
Hiro said quickly "The sauce is ran through the interior of the rice beasts and it keeps their shape, the delicate parts are made with sticky rice, but once they are submerged in the sauce they go back to being normal curry rice. It's just a little trick for presentation, don't mind it too much. It doesn't take anything away from the dish, nor does it enhance the flavor. Me, Gin, and a friend came up with this during our time at Totsuki, the old man almost gave up a beating because of it."
Gin suddenly laughed and mimicked Senzaemon "You damn brats! What is this useless garbage!" Hiro laughed and shook his head, those were the good days...
Kojiro and the other judges were too shocked to speak.
They processed what Hiro just said... It was... a simple trick...
I'm gonna quit being a chef, thank you. It was a nice ride.
They couldn't so such a 'simple' trick!
Weren't they worthless!?
They all sighed and Zerotwo giggled saying "Darling, I think you hurt their feelings..." Hiro blinekd and said "Oh, err... I meant it's incredibly hard to do and only maniacs like me, Gin, and our friend can do it! Very, very, very, very, hard. So hard in fact, I almost failed doing it just now. Ahem! There's no end to cooking, don't be discouraged."
The chefs...
Just felt worse.
Stop unintentionally flexing, okay?!
The judges didn't even want to destroy the art. Hiro said "It's gonna fall apart soon, so..." They immediately cut off a part of the dish that had the most ingredients and sauce before putting it in their mouths.
Their eyes widened and they went into a daze, taking another bit but of the opposite dish.
The vision was complete and a giant tiger and Dragon were fighting each other while they watched from the side in ancient robes with swords on their backs. They watched the Tiger and Dragon tangle with each other and bite, claw, tear at each other endlessly.
They came back from their vision and gulped as they pointed at the Dragon, signifying Hiro's win.
Hiro jumped in the air and fist pumped, laughing "The Knife always beats the Spoon, baby! Woooo!" Gin clicked his tongue and grumbled "ThE KnIfE AlWaYs bEaTs tHe sPoOn" Hiro wrapped his arm around Gin's neck, laughing "Jelly, bro?" Gin snorted and looked away with a smile.
They walked away and Gin said "This is your meal for the night, thank you for judging. There's more at the stations." the chefs came back to life and looked at the domes on the counter. They jumped in excitement and went to eat as Hiro, Gin, and Zerotwo walked off.
