Without Alona, ​​I can only use the airdrop system.

After some time, the teacher and the three members of the ninja research department arrived at the third checkpoint.

At this time, very few people tried to pass through the checkpoint, and all the students who did attempt to pass were lying on the ground.

Among these people, some had bellies swollen like small mountains, some were foaming at the mouth and had fainted, and others were covered in abrasions; they all looked extremely disheveled.

When the students who were watching noticed the arrival of the four teachers, they all cast sympathetic glances at them.

They believed that the four teachers would suffer the same fate as the group of challengers.

"Wha...what's going on?!" Man was astonished when he saw this scene.

"Before they fell to the ground, they all seemed to have undergone unimaginable trials..." Tsukuyomi was somewhat afraid of the opponents she was about to face, and her tall body trembled slightly.

"This time it will be a formidable opponent!" Izuna said seriously. "However, this intimidation will not make Izuna back down!"

The teachers observed the condition of the students who had fallen to the ground.

These students either appeared to have been defeated, eaten something contaminated, or were simply too full to eat properly...

Suddenly, the teacher looked up and saw four girls of different heights, builds, and appearances walking towards her!

After seeing the four of them with his own eyes, the teacher couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Because standing in front of the teacher was the famous Food Research Society, the legendary Hungry Head and Four Teeth!

Their agile movements, confident smiles, and individual secret skills are sure to inspire immense fear in others!

"This challenger is quite unexpected."

The girl who spoke first had white hair and red eyes. She wore the Gehenna school uniform with her outer garment draped over her shoulders. Her long, shapely legs were encased in black stockings, and her slender tail swayed behind her legs. Her every word and action exuded nobility and refinement.

The teacher naturally recognized that the elegant white-haired girl was none other than Haruna Kurodate, the president of the Food Research Club in the game.

Behind her are blonde, brown, and red-haired girls Akari, Izumi, and Junko, respectively.

Seeing that the entire Gourmet Research Club was able to hold their ground at this level, the teacher became even more convinced that Makoto and Nia were in cahoots.

"Greetings, Xia Lai's teacher, what a wonderful encounter." Haruna greeted her teacher very politely.

"Who sent you to guard this place?" the teacher asked curiously.

Although he believed that Makoto and Nia were working together to cause trouble, this was just speculation and had not been confirmed.

We now need to glean information from the words of the Gourmet Research Society.

“…I’m sorry, teacher.” Haruna smiled and shook her head. “I’m sorry I can’t tell you about this. I made a promise with that person. If I reveal her name, we won’t be able to get the ‘three-day unlimited food voucher’ for the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.”

what?

As expected of a food connoisseur, they were won over with three days of free, unlimited meals.

From this point, the teacher was completely certain that Makoto and Nia were the masterminds behind it all.

After all, who has the authority to grant a voucher for food research and development?

Of course, Haruna was unaware that the teacher had already guessed the result and continued her explanation.

"So, teacher, you need to pass the three checkpoints we set. You will pass as long as you complete just one of them."

"So which three are they?"

Actually, the teacher already knew the gist of it when he saw the students lying on the ground, but out of politeness, he still asked them.

“He had a meal contest with Akari, ate food made by Izumi, and fought against the four of us.”

"Yes, teacher, please make a choice."

"Teacher, how do we choose?!" Mitsuru and Tsukuyo looked to their teacher for help.

"I trust my lord's choice!" Unlike the other two, Izuna fully supports his teacher's decision. "Whatever decision my lord makes, Izuna will carry it out 100%, no, 1000%!"

Without hesitation, the teacher replied, "I choose to play against all four of you."

Given the teacher's current lineup, choosing the first two challenges would be a free win.

Akari's stomach capacity is so large that even four people working together wouldn't be a match for her.

Aside from Izumi, few people can tolerate Izumi's culinary culinary disasters.

"Oh?" Haruna was a little surprised by the teacher's choice. "But teacher, your side only has three students who can fight. Can you really defeat the four of us?"

"of course."

The teacher nodded with absolute certainty.

The teachers at the Gourmet Research Institute knew very well that the four of them were much more difficult to deal with than those from the Training Department.

After all, the four of them frequently dealt with the Disciplinary Committee, and the skills they honed through constant escapes and firefights were things that the Training Department could hardly learn.

But in order to rescue Iroha who has been kidnapped, to thwart Makoto and Nia's self-righteous conspiracy, and to help Michiru and Tsukuyo of the Ninja Club regain their confidence, he has to step up.

"Huh?!" Mitsuru and Tsukuyo looked utterly defeated. "Sensei, can we really beat them?! They look so amazing!"

"Mitsu, Tsukuyomi, Izuna." The teacher looked at the three of them with sincere eyes. "Do you trust my direction?"

"Izuna has always believed in our lord!" Izuna answered his teacher without hesitation.

Mitsuru and Tsukuyomi did not rush to answer, but instead recalled the previous battle.

It was thanks to the teachers' guidance and assistance that they were able to get to where they are today and achieve things they never dared to imagine before.

Perhaps, with the teacher's help, the Ninja Research Club might actually gain official recognition from the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) and become a legitimate, official club.

"Yes!" He nodded emphatically. "I believe in my teacher!"

“I…I also believe in the teacher!” Tsukuyo gave a clear answer.

"Alright, just listen to me then."

The two sides then began to communicate their tactics and set up their formations.

The food research team is led by Izumi Station, with Akari and Junko in the middle and Haruna at the back.

On the ninja research and development team's side, the teacher did not assign them any positions, but instead made them all stand in a row, close their eyes, and get into a fighting stance.

The teacher stood at the very front.

"?" Haruna was a little confused. "What are they doing? What did the teacher suggest? Why are they standing at the front?"

"I heard that Master's strength can withstand bullets." Akari looked relaxed, seemingly unconcerned about winning or losing. "Could it be that you intend to personally step in and cover for the ninjas?"

"Hmph, no matter how much they try to cover me up, my speed won't be inferior to theirs." Junko's words sounded very confident.

Izumi looked at the three little ninjas with incomprehension.

The passersby were also dumbfounded.

What move will it be this time?

"Wait for my prompting before opening your eyes, and then proceed according to the plan."

After speaking to the three members of the Ninja Research and Development Department, the teacher gestured to Izuna.

"let us start."

"it is good."

After saying that, the teacher equipped himself with Terran weapons.

"Joint operations operator blitzkrieg, fully armed."

Just as the food research club members were about to fire their guns, a shield with a flashing light suddenly appeared in front of the teacher!

Suddenly, a bright light illuminated the scene!

“Now!!”

After being prompted by his teacher, Izuna opened his eyes and immediately unleashed a ninjutsu: "Izuna-style Ninjutsu, Smoke and Shadow!"

Immediately afterwards, smoke filled the entire venue.

"Rhine Lab Operator Saria, skill Calcification, fully armed."

The teacher immediately activated Saria's third skill to slow down the Gourmet Research Club members.

The actual manifestation is completely different from that in the game. The four members of the Food Research Club suddenly "grow" layers of calcium that hinder their movement!

The three members of the Ninja Club ran into the smoke, and according to their teacher's plan, they worked together to take down each member of the Gourmet Research Club one by one.

Then, explosions and gunfire began to erupt from the smoke.

The teacher's plan for a surprise attack using flashbangs and smoke would not only prevent the trio of ninjas from being overwhelmed by the Gourmet Research Group's powerful firepower, but also maximize their teamwork and end the battle as quickly as possible.

Even so, the Food Research Society's resistance lasted for more than a minute, which surprised the teacher.

Within a minute, the cries of Izumi, Akari, Junko, and Haruna being knocked down rang out one by one.

Before the bystanders could react, the smoke had already dissipated, leaving only the disheveled four members of the Gourmet Research Group.

"This...we've already lost?!" Izumi was reviewing the previous battle. "Before the fight even started, my eyes were blinded by the light, and after my vision returned, I couldn't see anything around me! There was also a thick layer of something on my body, it was so annoying!"

"Teacher, you have no sportsmanship!!!" Junko, covered in dust, stood up and glared at her teacher, shouting angrily, "It's not fair to defeat us this way!!"

“But we didn’t restrict what tactics the teachers could use, did we?” Akari quickly accepted reality. “Besides, this tactic is quite interesting. We can use it next time we face the disciplinary committee, can’t we?”

"Um... Akari, what you said isn't wrong."

"What an amazing plan." Haruna stood up, dusted herself off, and gave her teacher a thumbs up. "I've learned a lot from you, teacher."

"We lost this battle."

Haruna announced the results very politely.

At this moment, the onlookers cheered.

"That's incredible! Swift and powerful, is this the strength of a ninja?!"

"They actually managed to defeat the invincible Food Research Society! That's amazing!"

"Go for it, ninjas! The final unknown challenge is up to you!"

.......

At the same time, the live camera was also pointed at the teacher and the three members of the Ninjutsu Research and Development Department.

"Hehe~, finally, a team has made it through the third stage of the entire event!" Nia's slightly teasing voice rang out from the airship in the sky. "So, will they be able to pass the fourth stage, whose true nature has yet to be revealed?"

Nia's provocative voice gave the teacher an urge to deliberately punch her.

However, the teacher clenched his fists and endured it, because corporal punishment of students is still wrong.

After helping the Gourmet Research Club recover from their injuries, the teacher and the Ninja Development Club embarked on their journey once again, heading towards the final challenge.

Teachers who have seen the original story know that the fourth challenge is a special mechanical room.

Originally, it was Kaede who was in charge, but after Nia and Makoto collaborated to modify the arrangement, it will probably be someone else.

If the teacher had to guess, the hot spring development department would be the most likely candidate.

But this is just speculation.
