Uchiha Puppet Master, Starting from One Piece.

The fat man was so frightened his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, stammering, "This...this..."

"Now, can you please move aside?"

Rangiku dusted off her hands and looked down at the fat man.

"Make way! Make way right now!"

The fat man scrambled around, giving orders to the remaining servants.

"What are you all standing there for! Quickly push the carriage to the side of the road! Hurry!"

The servants dared not delay and hurriedly pushed the broken carriage to the side.

Bai Yu didn't even glance at the fat man, and turned to the coachman, saying, "Let's go."

The carriage started moving again and sped past, leaving the fat man trembling on the roadside.

"What a boring guy, he backed down so quickly."

Matsumoto Rangiku sat back in the carriage, looking like she hadn't had enough.

"I thought we could play for a little longer."

"Alright, alright. Nobles are all people who act according to others' opinions."

Nico Robin shook her head helplessly: "It's a good thing that there are no unexpected complications. We still have to go to the capital."

"I know, I know."

Rangiku pouted.

"But speaking of which, Bai Yu-jun, wasn't that move pretty cool?"

"Good, good, worthy of encouragement."

"Huh? You're getting more and more rude!"

Soon the group arrived at the capital. The city gates were very high, and as they entered the city, the flow of people parted like water from both sides.

Uchiha Hakuba walked at the front, his black trench coat fluttering slightly in the wind, while Nico Robin walked at the back, one hand casually resting on her bag, looking at the buildings on the street with great interest.

"Ok?"

As Bai Yu approached the city center square, he suddenly stopped and looked up ahead.

In the sky, a giant Ferris wheel slowly turned, its colorful cabins shimmering in the sunlight, while roller coaster tracks plunged and tumbled nearby, accompanied by screams of delight.

"Amusement park?"

Robin squinted.

Bai Yu put his hands in his pockets, his gaze fixed on Connor.

As for Connor, he was looking up at the roller coaster in the distance, which was plunging down from the highest point, accompanied by screams all around.

There was no fear or hesitation in her eyes that a human child should have; instead, it was as if she were observing some kind of novel experimental subject, her tail tip swaying gently.

"Bai Yu, what is that?"

Connor pointed to the roller coaster, his tone flat.

"It looks...very fast."

"That's a roller coaster, an entertainment facility used for seeking thrills."

Bai Yu explained, "People usually feel scared or excited by the feeling of weightlessness."

"Fear?"

Connor tilted his head, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, and then revealed an expectant expression.

"That sounds...interesting. I'm going to play."

Robin glanced at her, a smile playing on his lips: "Are you sure? That's the most thrilling ride in the entire amusement park."

"Yes!" Connor nodded vigorously, "I want to challenge that one!"

"Report! I've never been there before, but I want to go too!"

Matsumoto Rangiku quickly said.

Soon, people arrived at the roller coaster entrance.

While queuing, you could clearly feel the tense atmosphere around you.

The people in front turned pale with fright and encouraged each other.

When it was their turn, the staff checked the seat belts and gave Connor a special look: "Little girl, hold on tight, this is scary."

Connor nodded expressionlessly and sat down in his seat with swift and decisive movements.

Shiraha sat to her left, Robin to her right, and Rangiku sat in the single seat at the very front...

It's clear that she's more interested in having fun than Connor.

As the bell rang, the train slowly started moving and began climbing the hill.

The atmosphere around them became tense.

Connor sat in the middle, her hands on her knees, her back straight. She looked curiously at the ground that was getting smaller and smaller, and even had the leisure to count the trees below.

"White Feather."

Connor suddenly turned his head: "This height isn't even as high as when I fly."

Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh: "Indeed, you are a dragon after all..."

The words had barely left his mouth when the train reached its highest point and paused for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, with a huge roar, the train began to plunge vertically!

"Whoaaaaaahh ...

The screams of everyone on the bus erupted instantly, deafeningly loud.

A powerful gravitational acceleration swept over me, and the wind pressure felt like knives scraping my face.

However, amidst the wailing and howling behind him, Connor remained remarkably calm.

She remained expressionless, without even blinking.

As the train spun wildly, twisted, and even performed various acrobatic maneuvers on the tracks, many people were left completely disoriented...

As for Connor?

She simply watched the scenery rushing by in front of her, occasionally turning her head to observe the behavior of those behind her.

"I don't feel anything..."

Hearing this, Nico Robin turned her head and saw Connor's calm expression. She was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The train finally came to a slow stop.

As the car doors opened, many people slumped in their seats as if they had just been pulled out of the water, or retched while holding onto the railings.

Connor, on the other hand, stood up steadily and straightened her skirt.

"Is it over?" Connor looked at Bai Yu, a hint of...disappointment in his eyes?

"ended."

"Oh."

Connor nodded.

"It was just so-so. Not as thrilling as when I fell out of the clouds last time..."

Bai Yu looked at Connor's "it's nothing special" expression and couldn't help but reach out and rub her head: "You're a dragon, this is indeed too easy for you."

"I see."

Connor nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Bai Yu.

"Although it was slow, it was still very interesting... I've never experienced anything like this before..."

Chapter 45 The Rich Man's House is a Place of Wine and Meat

Uchiha Hakuba didn't know why his group had been received by King Hamburg of Balaiwood.

However, the few people who had never seen the palace before were quite interested in the emperor's invitation.

Surprisingly, Uchiha Hakuba and the others chose an unexpected path.

The road leading to the palace was nothing short of a visual and olfactory torture.

The drainage ditches on both sides of the street were filled with murky liquid, emitting a nauseating stench of decay.

And in the shadows along the roadside, countless emaciated people huddled together.

They were so weak that they could no longer make a sound, and could only stare blankly at passersby with their sunken eyes.

At the corner, there was an old man whose body was shriveled up like a crumpled and unfolded old piece of paper, his skin clinging tightly to his protruding bones, giving him a sickly bluish-gray appearance.

A thin, bony hand stretched stiffly toward the roadside. Clearly, he had been dead for some time. Several large rats scurried around him without restraint, even daring to gnaw on the hem of his tattered clothes.

People around him were indifferent to it, as if it were just a roadside stone, or even less than a stone.

"How terrible, there's actually a place like this here..."

As the distance decreased, the surrounding scenery underwent a dramatic change.

If the street they just left was hell, then they are now walking step by step toward heaven, a heaven that belongs only to a select few.

The once muddy dirt road has been transformed into a smooth, mirror-like marble road. Each stone slab is polished to an exceptional degree, indicating that it is regularly cleaned.

The streets were no longer lined with low, dilapidated slums, but with magnificent palaces.

Towering white marble columns support the magnificent dome, each column adorned with intricate and exquisite carvings that shimmer dazzlingly in the sunlight.

Upon reaching the palace gates, the extravagance reached an even more breathtaking level.

The enormous golden gate was wide open, its knockers crafted from the purest gold and inlaid with rubies and sapphires the size of pigeon eggs.

A thick red velvet carpet was laid in the square in front of the gate, extending all the way to the steps of the main hall. The carpet was a glaring red, completely different from the black, congealed blood of the starving old man.

Upon entering the main hall, one enters a corridor made of jewels, with huge oil paintings hanging on the walls, framed in pure gold.
