"Your expertise in professional cuisine is precisely what my team lacks!"
Kubo Ryunosuke, speaking earnestly.
With the status of this manga titan, if he were to publicly recruit, many top-class chefs would undoubtedly contact him.
After all, it was a win-win collaboration; the manga needed professional knowledge to support its content and improve the quality of the work. And for the chefs, having their names co-authored was also great advertising, especially in collaboration with one of Jump's pillars, a rare opportunity.
"Uh..."
Mashiro Takumi and Takagi Shuutoku were petrified, looking soulless and utterly baffled.
"Sorry..."
But before Xia Yu could even think, he had already declined, "I am not planning to focus my energy on things outside of cooking."
He mentally gave himself a thumbs up, cool!
That was the kind of line you'd expect from a cooking research fanatic, totally fitting.
Thump!
