Gensokyo's Dimensional Shop: Chapter Nineteen - White Clouds and Blooming Flowers
"This is my wife, Yuuka Kazami."
Bai An introduced the white-bearded man to Bai An, who nodded with a subtle look in his eyes.
He originally thought it was the black-haired girl from before, but he didn't expect it to be someone else.
"This is Whitebeard, one of the Four Emperors in the world of One Piece, known as the strongest man."
Upon hearing Bai An's introduction, Kazami Yuuka showed a hint of interest, but after glancing at the white beard, she looked away with some disappointment.
"It's all just empty fame. If it weren't for the shop owner, I would have died at the hands of the navy this time."
Whitebeard waved his hand. If things had gone according to the black-haired girl's plan and the original timeline had been followed, he would have died directly in Marineford, so how could he have been the strongest in the world?
Kazami Yuuka remained aloof; she was usually like this with everyone except when facing Bai An.
However, since the other party was Bai An's friend, she still nodded politely.
...
On the deck of the Moby Dick.
Upon seeing the white-bearded figure, everyone rushed forward to greet him.
Marco was slightly taken aback when he saw Bai An standing next to Whitebeard, but then he was overjoyed.
"Shopkeeper, you're not here to help us fight the Navy, are you?!"
Marco's face showed surprise; his father had told them about the opponent's strength recently.
When they first heard their father say that he couldn't beat the shop owner, they were all incredulous. If he was stronger than their father, wouldn't he be the best in the world?
But considering that the black-haired girl next to the shop owner was able to forcefully pin down Teach, that traitor, he wasn't surprised.
"Yes, I will help you rescue Ace this time as well."
Hearing that Bai An had indeed come to help deal with the Navy filled everyone with joy.
With the other side involved, rescuing Ace would be a piece of cake.
"Alright, sons, let's have a feast to celebrate the shop owner helping us!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily and announced loudly.
"Yes, Dad!"
"Tonight I'm going to drink you all under the table!"
"Come on, let's see who can outdrink whom!"
The crowd cheered, rubbing their hands together in excitement.
"Shopkeeper, isn't Kaguya here?"
Marco suddenly thought of the black-haired girl who had been with Bai An before, and asked her with some confusion.
"Kaguya couldn't come because of something, so I brought my partner with me this time."
"Partner, isn't Kaguya your partner, shopkeeper?"
Marco was taken aback. In his memory, Kaguya and Hakuan were so close that their relationship was obviously very intimate.
"No, Kaguya and I are just friends right now."
Bai An shrugged, looking helpless. He was also conflicted, mainly because his relationship with Kaguya had already been established, and it would take time to adjust to change it.
As for Yuuka, it has been made clear that he can have several girlfriends.
It was Yuuka who first brought up this matter.
"It's a pity your wife didn't come, shop owner. She must be just as beautiful as Kaguya."
Marco offered a polite compliment.
"Yuuka's here too."
Bai An pointed to the bow of the ship, and Marco followed the direction of his finger.
A woman in a red plaid skirt stood by the railing, holding a parasol in both hands, gazing into the distance.
Her shoulder-length emerald green hair danced in the sea breeze, and her exquisite features were like a sculpture, exuding beauty.
Her stunningly beautiful face revealed a hint of indifference, like a block of ice, which lowered the temperature of the surrounding area considerably.
The other person seemed to notice their gazes and turned their head to look in their direction.
Marco immediately felt a sense of oppression and even involuntarily took a few steps back.
Unlike Kaguya before, this person is clearly not easy to get along with.
It gives off a dangerous feeling.
"Yuuka, could you come here for a moment?"
Bai An waved to Kazami Yuuka, who then walked over to Bai An's side while holding a parasol.
After Bai An's brief introduction, Marco understood the situation of Kazami Yuuka.
A powerful flower-like monster from another world, similar to nature itself.
"Shopkeeper, Miss Yuuka, is she really not human?"
Marco still found it hard to believe that this fairy-like figure was actually a legendary monster.
Even though the Whitebeard Pirates had sailed the Grand Line for so many years, visited countless unknown countries, and seen all sorts of things, they had never seen a monster.
Moreover, in his impression...
Shouldn't monsters be depicted as three-headed, six-armed, ferocious, and tyrannical demons?
"Why would I lie to you? Youxiang is a flower monster."
Bai An rolled her eyes, then placed her hand on Youxiang's cheek and tugged at it.
"Furthermore, the yokai isn't what you imagine it to be; this is Yuuka's true form!"
Although Kazami Yuuka remained silent, she did not stop Bai An. Instead, she quietly let him do as he pleased and gently raised her hand while looking up at the sky.
Marco was puzzled by her actions. Following her gaze, he saw delicate, vibrant flowers appearing in the clouds above the sky, quickly covering the entire sky in a magnificent display.
Marco took a deep breath. Is this a monster?
He was certain that this was not a Devil Fruit, because the power was too pure; the intense life force and vitality did not belong to a Devil Fruit at all.
"Look, what is that!"
Just then, a crew member on the observation deck suddenly cried out, drawing everyone's attention.
Countless petals drifted down from the top of the sky.
Petals of fresh flowers fell onto the deck, each one crystal clear and gleaming with an alluring luster.
"Flowers are growing in the clouds?"
Everyone was captivated by the sight, their eyes widening in astonishment.
They had seen towering waves, giant hailstones, waterspouts, and other natural disasters, but they had never seen such a strange scene where the clouds as far as the eye could see were covered with flowers.
Even Whitebeard was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered.
"Gulalalala, what a clever trick."
The white-bearded man laughed loudly, then downed the wine in his cup in one gulp, poured himself another cup, and drank it down in one go.
Everyone realized what was happening and turned their gazes toward Bai An and Kazami Yuuka. No one on their ship possessed the ability to make flowers grow from clouds, let alone create such a magnificent scene, so the only ones who could have performed this feat were Bai An and Kazami Yuuka.
"so amazing!"
"Is this a Devil Fruit!?"
"If it's a Devil Fruit, then it must have been developed to its limit, to be able to control such a large area of white clouds to grow flowers!"
A group of people discussed animatedly, their eyes burning with admiration as they stared at the sky filled with flowers that blotted out the sun, their respect for the two growing ever stronger.
However, they did not believe that the other party would go to great lengths to develop an ordinary ability to its fullest potential.
Presumably, the other party possesses even more powerful abilities.
Moreover, there are flowers with various characteristics.
Plants from an island they had visited before possessed the ability to transform into various forms, such as fire, ice, and even poison.
"Yuuka, you're being too flashy."
Listening to the crowd's discussion, Bai An patted her on the shoulder, but the latter returned a disdainful look.
You're clearly enjoying it!
Kazami Yuuka bluntly exposed Bai An's inner thoughts. After so many years together, she had long since figured out Bai An's personality.
"Ahem, Marco is still here."
Bai An coughed awkwardly a few times, directly contradicting her. Youxiang had changed, completely changed; she used to always cooperate with him.
"Don't worry, I didn't see anything."
Marco then realized what was happening, quickly looked away, and immediately made an excuse to slip away.
Next, people came one after another to toast Bai An and Kazami Yuuka.
Although the two don't look very old, the accomplished are respected.
Moreover, the other party was their benefactor from the Whitebeard Pirates.
It's perfectly reasonable for them to toast each other.
Of course, not everyone comes; only the squad leader and some crew members with status come.
The Whitebeard Pirates alone have more than 1600 members, not to mention the pirate crews under their command.
If everyone comes to offer a toast, it will take three days and three nights to finish.
Bai An was not stingy either.
He took out his fruit and wine from the gap and piled them up to fill the entire cabin.
At first, no one understood why.
