Soon, Karin served an exquisite dish. Haruhi Suzumiya asked Emiya to lift the lid and filmed a short video to send to the group.
"Have any of you ever seen a dish this amazing?" Haruhi boasted.
Shiho Miyano sent a few question marks: "Are you sure there's no fluorescent dye in there?"
Hephaestus thought for a moment. "I think Hestia mentioned this before. This must be a dish from Kikkaro Restaurant, right?"
Emiya nodded. "That's right."
Mana Nakiri asked, "I see Erina is also in the group. Why isn't she talking?"
"She's probably cooking right now," Emiya replied. "Besides, it should be dinnertime at Goddess's Feast. How do you have time to chat?"
Mana Nakiri: "I'm off today."
Shizuka Hiratsuka: "@Emiya, when are you taking me to Kikkaro Restaurant?"
Nami chimed in: "A dish that glows? I really want to know what it tastes like. @Emiya, I want to go too, right, Nojiko?"
Nojiko: "It certainly looks delicious."
Emiya smiled. "Alright, I'll take you there sometime. But now, I'm going to eat."
After that, Emiya left the chat group, put down his phone, and began to eat. Haruhi also exited the chat and picked up her chopsticks, and Yuki Nagato, silent the whole time, did the same. They began to feast.
Madam Pai's cooking had improved significantly. Emiya noticed that her techniques now included Western-style methods in addition to traditional Chinese cuisine-likely thanks to Erina Nakiri's influence. While ten Erina Nakiris couldn't match one Madam Pai in skill, Erina came from a modern culinary background and introduced new techniques to her. In turn, Madam Pai taught Erina traditional skills, creating a mutually beneficial exchange.
Emiya realized that with the chat group, Madam Pai would likely share ideas with Gin Dojima and others, continuing to advance her cooking. Naturally, Emiya would reap the benefits.
After the meal, Haruhi was completely satisfied. Nagato's expression remained neutral, though Emiya suspected she was content as well.
Emiya then sent Haruhi and Yuki back to their world and returned to Orario. He opened his phone, entered the chat group, and messaged Shinobu Kocho:
"I'll be waiting for you at the Goddess's Feast."
Soon, Shinobu Kocho arrived alone.
"Good evening, Lord Emiya," she greeted.
Emiya nodded. "We're going to another world, and it might take a while. Did you get permission from Lord Miach?"
Shinobu smiled. "Don't worry, Lord Emiya. I've already requested a half-year leave from Lord Miach."
"Oh, all right. Let's go then."
Emiya transported Shinobu to the One Piece world, arriving at Dr. Kureha's castle.
"Chopper, Chopper!" Emiya called, and Chopper appeared.
"Oh, it's you, Emiya," Chopper said shyly.
"Chopper, this is Shinobu Kocho, a new addition. She's also a doctor."
Chopper flinched slightly. Shinobu had heard about him but was still surprised to see a talking reindeer.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Chopper. I'm Shinobu Kocho," she said politely. Chopper nodded in response.
Emiya explained, "Shinobu Kocho is skilled in medicine and will join the rejuvenation drug research team."
Shinobu smiled: "It's a pleasure to work with you, Chopper."
Chopper responded, "Follow me. I'll take you to Dr. Kureha."
Emiya and Shinobu followed. Dr. Kureha, holding a bottle of plum wine, was half-drunk.
"You're quite the charmer, aren't you?" she teased Emiya.
He gave a wry smile. "Shiho Miyano is my subordinate, and Shinobu Kocho is a subordinate of a friend. No matter how you look at it, this isn't charming."
Kureha's expression said, I'll believe that when pigs fly.
Shiho Miyano, already familiar with Shinobu from the chat group, nodded in acknowledgment.
Kureha had no objections. She knew creating the rejuvenation drug was difficult, and more doctors would accelerate progress. Emiya's recruits were trusted professionals.
"Chopper, prepare a room for Miss Shinobu Kocho," Kureha instructed.
"Yes, Dr. Kureha," Chopper replied immediately.
"I'll help. A girl knows what a girl needs," Akemi Miyano added, following him.
Shinobu was about to go alone but was stopped by Kureha, who asked several difficult questions to test her skills. While the questions were secondary, they ensured Shinobu received appropriate assignments.
Shinobu answered confidently and efficiently, impressing Kureha.
Emiya wasn't surprised. Unlike most Demon Slayers, Shinobu relied on toxicology rather than brute force. She used wisteria-derived poisons on her Nichirin Blade to kill demons, even Upper Moons, and had formidable medical skills.
Later, she joined the Miach Familia to study under the god of medicine, explaining Emiya's agreement to include her in the rejuvenation drug team.
After the evaluation, Kureha smiled, satisfied. "With your help, we'll create the drug much faster."
"You flatter me," Shinobu replied humbly.
Seeing Shinobu integrated into the team, Emiya quietly left Kureha's castle and returned to Professor Agasa's house.
Meanwhile, Conan had already left, and Professor Agasa was absorbed in the chat group on his phone.
Emiya checked the group:
Loki: "You little shrimp, now you know how powerful I am."
Hestia: "You were the one who cried and ran away. Why are you acting like you won?"
Hephaestus: [sends photo of Loki crying and running away]
Hestia: "See? You lost."
Loki: "Huh? I lost? Are you insane? Who won or lost, don't you even know?"
Emiya noticed Hestia's cheek was slightly swollen-likely from Loki pinching her-and couldn't help but complain:
"You two are too much. You're throwing away all the dignity of gods. Hephaestus, can't you stop them?"
Hephaestus sent two frustrated emojis: "I tried, but it didn't work."
Kazuma Satou sighed: "Honestly, my image of gods has been completely shattered."
Shizuka Hiratsuka: "+1"
Takashi Natsume: "+1"
Others remained silent.
