Chapter 1308 - Hunter Exam 5 (1/2)

The participants of the Hunter Exam weren't stupid and all of them had considerable skill since they were able to pass the first phase of the examination. Before long, they were able to find the weakness of the Great Stamp and that was its forehead.

The Great Stamp had extremely powerful snouts that could destroy a lot of things easily and protected it from a lot of things, however, in truth, it was used to hide its weakness.

Gon, Killua, Kurapika, Leorio, and other participants also quickly defeated the Great Stamp and caught it back to the site of the second phase. They also started to cook it as soon as possible since they wanted to pass this exam quickly.

In their minds, cooking was pretty simple as long as the pig was burnt, they had cooked the pig and they had completed their exam, but in truth, it wasn't that simple.

On the other hand, Haru, Shinobu, and Charlotte prepared their Great Stamps meticulously.

”Haru, do you have burger bread and cheese? If possible, can you give me a sauce, vegetables, and pickles?” Charlotte asked while turning the meat of Great Stamp into mincemeat before turning it into a patty. She might have a ”4D Pocket of Doraemon”, but she didn't keep food ingredients and only kept various weapons inside.

”....”

Haru was speechless, but he took out all the things Charlotte requested.

Shinobu's cooking was pretty simple. She cut down the pig and took out the belly part before stewing it together with a radish, egg, and ginger in soy sauce broth.

Haru also prepared his own dish and also took the same part of meat as Shinobu which was the belly part of the pig since he also felt that it was the most delicious part of the pig.

However, the other participants only pierced their pork into a large skewer then roasting it until it turned black.

”....”

Menchi frowned looking at most of the participants, but then her eyes became curious when she was looking at Shinobu, Charlotte, and Haru.

Unlike the rest of the participants, the cooking process of the dish which was made by Charlotte and Shinobu was very careful which made Menchi nod in satisfaction.

In Haru's case, Menchi didn't need to say anything since the smell from Haru's dish permeated through the entire site which caused all the participants to gulp their salivas.

”They're amazing...” Gon said and wasn't sure what to say when he saw his roasted pig which was black.

”....”

Killua, Kurapika, and Leorio also couldn't say anything since they weren't that different from Gon's roasted pig.

Then one by one the participants quickly served their roasted pork.

Buhara could eat everything and he didn't care whether the taste of the pork was disgusting as long as his stomach was full, however, Menchi couldn't accept their roasted pig and failed almost all of them!

Then when most of the participants failed, Shinobu served her dish to both Menchi and Buhara.

When Menchi and Buhara saw the dish in front of them their eyes became excited.

”What dish is this?” Menchi asked.

”It's kakuni,” Shinobu said.

Kakuni is a Japanese braised pork dish that literally means ”square simmered”. Kakuni is a popular regional product of Kyushu, particularly Nagasaki. The origin of this dish is most likely Chinese, making it a form of Japanese Chinese cuisine, and it is similar to Dongpo pork, though not as heavy in the sauce.

”Let me taste it,” Menchi said.

Buhara didn't wait for Menchi and had already eaten the dish which was cooked by Shinobu, but it seemed the portion was too small for him which made him sigh, however, he quickly passed Shinobu in this exam.

Menchi nodded and could feel the softness of the meat. The taste of kakuni was quite pleasant and made her mouth stop chewing the meat. She nodded and said, ”It's good. You pass.”

Shinobu nodded and said, ”Thank you.”

”...”

Everyone who saw Shinobu pass could only twitch their lips since they weren't good at cooking and it was also impossible to copy Shinobu's dish since they didn't have enough ingredients.

Then after Shinobu, it was Charlotte who made a double-decker burger for this exam.

Buhara and Menchi also gulped since Charlotte's burger appearance were very appetizing.

The cheese on the patty was melting and the bun was being grilled just right.

The participants were even gulped when they saw Charlotte's burger.

”Let me taste it,” Menchi said.
