She didn't say much, and Robin didn't ask any more questions.
Mirajane tied on her apron and began preparing the ingredients. Her knife skills were excellent; her movements were fluid and precise, each cut just right. The vegetables on the cutting board were chopped into even pieces and neatly arranged on a plate.
Robin looked at her and suddenly had a strange feeling.
This woman, though seemingly gentle and kind, harbors something deep within. Something powerful, dangerous, and carefully concealed.
The two worked together very well.
Robin washes and chops the vegetables, while Mirajane cooks and seasons them.
The kitchen was soon filled with the aroma of food.
That was a flavor that Bai Yu had never made before.
Kanna had slipped into the kitchen at some point, tiptoed over the stove, and sniffed incessantly with her little nose.
"It smells so good!"
Her eyes were half-closed, and she was completely absorbed in the moment.
Mirajane looked at her and couldn't help but laugh.
"Would you like to try a bite?"
"May I!"
Kanna's eyes lit up instantly, like two little stars.
Mirajane picked up a piece of freshly fried meat with her chopsticks, blew on it, and held it to Kanna's lips.
Kanna took a bite, and then her whole body froze.
"what happened?"
Mirajane was a little nervous.
"Is it not tasty?"
Kanna did not answer.
Her eyes widened, her mouth slowly chewed, and then her eyes reddened.
"Sister Mirajane!"
Connor rushed over and hugged Mirajane's leg, bursting into tears.
"It's so delicious! This is the best meat I've ever eaten!"
Mirajane was startled by her reaction and quickly squatted down and patted her on the back.
"Okay, okay, stop crying. I'll make it for you every day from now on."
"really?"
Kanna looked up at her, her eyes brimming with tears.
"real."
Mirajane smiled and reached out her finger to gently wipe away Conna's tears.
Kanna nodded vigorously, then clung to Mirajane's leg and refused to let go.
Robin stood aside, watching this scene, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
This woman seems alright.
The party started in the evening.
The setting sun dyed the sea a golden-red hue, shimmering and beautiful, like a painting.
The deck of the Dawn was covered with colorful ribbons brought from Wano Country, their vibrant colors fluttering gently in the sea breeze.
Artoria set up a long table in the center of the deck, covered it with a white tablecloth, and arranged the tableware and candles.
Robin carried out a few chairs and a few cases of wine from the cabin.
Luan opened a bottle of wine, tilted his head back and took a sip, letting out a satisfied sigh.
"This is what life is all about~ sea breeze, sunset, fine wine, and..."
She glanced at Mirajane, who was busy in the kitchen, and then at Bai Yu, who was sitting at the bow of the boat reading a book.
"There are still good days when I don't have to cook for myself."
Yachiru jumped down from the mast, carrying a string of colorful lanterns, and skillfully hung them on the railing.
Her movements were light and quick, and it was clear that she was in a good mood.
"It will look even prettier this way~"
Yachiru looked at the hung lanterns and nodded in satisfaction, a gentle and content smile on her face.
Connor was already seated at the table, knife and fork in her hands, her eyes fixed on the kitchen like a kitten waiting for its prey.
"When can we eat?"
She asked for the hundredth time.
"It's coming soon."
Robin answered with a smile, placing a plate of freshly made salad on the table.
Chapter 222 Let's go fishing!
Kanna glanced at the salad, then at the kitchen, and decided to wait for the hot dishes.
Finally, Mirajane carried the first hot dish out of the kitchen.
It was a large plate of grilled fish, the skin of which was grilled to a golden brown and crispy, sprinkled with spices and lemon juice, and the aroma was irresistible.
Kanna's eyes widened in disbelief.
Mirajane placed the grilled fish on the table, and Kanna immediately reached for her fork, but Robin stopped her.
"Let's eat after everyone has arrived."
Connor reluctantly put away her fork, her lips pouting so much they could hold an oil bottle.
Mirajane smiled, turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue serving the dishes.
The second dish was stewed meat. The meat was stewed until very tender, the broth was rich, and a thin layer of oil floated on top, making one's mouth water at first glance.
The third is vegetable soup, which is light and refreshing, with the natural sweetness of the vegetables.
The fourth dish is seafood fried rice. Each grain of rice is distinct, and the freshness of the seafood and the aroma of the rice blend together perfectly.
Then came a dessert, a pudding made by Mirajane, with a golden caramelized surface that made a crisp sound when tapped.
Sixth...Seventh...
Finally, there was a large fruit platter, with fruits of various colors neatly cut and arranged into a beautiful pattern.
Bai Yu walked over from the bow of the ship at some point, stood by the dining table, and looked at the table full of dishes, admiring them in his heart.
Robin walked over to him and whispered something.
"Bai Yu, are you sure she only knows a little bit?"
Bai Yu did not answer.
Kanna couldn't control herself any longer. When no one was looking, she secretly reached for the grilled fish, grabbed a piece, and stuffed it into her mouth.
Then her expression went out of control again.
"Delicious! Delicious! So delicious!"
Kanna was so excited that she was incoherent, grabbing the grilled fish and stuffing it into her mouth, her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster.
Rangiku couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed Kanna from the edge of the table.
"Everyone's not here yet, why are you eating already?"
Kanna was suspended in mid-air, still clutching half a grilled fish tightly in her hand, refusing to let go.
I'm hungry!
"Wait a minute!"
"I can't wait even a second longer!"
Shiraha sighed, took Kanna from Rangiku, and placed her on a chair.
"Eat."
Connor felt like she had been granted a pardon and immediately pounced on the grilled fish, eating with great relish.
Bai Yu looked at the others.
"Sit down and eat, there's no need to wait."
Artoria was the first to sit down.
She picked up her fork, speared a piece of stew, put it in her mouth, and then her expression changed.
The change was subtle, but Bai Yu noticed it.
Artoria's pupils dilated slightly, and she slowed down her chewing, as if she were savoring something extraordinary.
"How about it?"
Rangiku asked, "There's also a piece of meat skewered on the fork."
Artoria put down her fork and looked at Mirajane.
"It's delicious."
Her comments were brief, but sincere.
"Thank you."
Mirajane smiled and sat down opposite Artoria.
Rangiku stuffed the meat into her mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and then froze.
She turned to look at Mirajane, her eyes filled with shock.
