Uchiha Puppet Master, Starting from One Piece.

Kanna's eyes lit up. She put down her cup, gestured with her little hands, and said with pride, "Thor is a super powerful dragon! She's amazing, and she has huge wings. When she flies, the wind blows really, really strong!"

She paused, a longing look appearing on her little face.

"And Thor is an amazing cook! Her super omelet rice has a smooth quail egg inside and a sweet sauce. She also makes giant roasted sweet potatoes that are so soft they practically ooze honey when you squeeze them!"

"Is it also a dragon?"

Robin raised an eyebrow, put down his cup, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes: "I heard our next destination is Little Garden, a place with very ancient dinosaurs. I didn't expect that the dragons you know, Connie, can actually cook."

Unohana watched Kanna with great interest, tapping her fingertips lightly on the table: "She sounds like a very gentle dragon, able to make so many delicious dishes."

Smiling, he patted Kanna's head and said softly, "How about we invite Thor to sail with us sometime? Then we can try her cooking."

Kanna nodded vigorously, her little head bobbing like a rattle: "Yes, yes, it would be great if Thor were here."

As she spoke, she took another sip of milk tea, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons: "Now we have Brother Baiyu, Sister Robin, Sister Rangiku, Sister Unohana, and Tohru in the future. Being together with everyone is the happiest thing!"

The fire still flickered, and the aroma of milk tea mingled with the scents of fruit and nuts lingered on the deck.

The waves lapped against the ship's side, making a gentle sound. Countless stars fell from the sky, illuminating the group sitting together, and even the sea breeze carried a touch of warmth.

The warmth of the stove kept out the wind and snow of the cold night, and the milk tea in the rough earthenware cup was still steaming, with the amber tea soup leaving faint marks on the cup wall.

The waves lapped against the ship's deck, making a rhythmic sound, like a gentle lullaby.

Just then, Kanna suddenly looked up, pointed to the sea outside the ship's side, and exclaimed in a trembling, delighted voice, "Look, everyone! There are stars shining in the sea!"

Following her gaze, everyone saw that a faint blue halo had appeared on the dark sea, as if the night sky had been crushed and scattered into the sea.

The halo grew brighter and brighter, gradually outlining a huge silhouette, and slowly swam towards the Dawn.

"what is that?"

Rangiku put down the sake pot, squinted slightly, and nudged Shiraha beside her: "Hey, Shiraha, you have good eyesight, take a look at what that is."

Bai Yu didn't respond, but his pupils suddenly turned crimson, and the three-tomoe pattern slowly rotated in the depths of his eyes. The eerie blue halo was nowhere to be hidden in the Sharingan's vision. He could clearly see that it was a huge deep-sea creature, its body like an elongated jellyfish, but with a pair of transparent, cicada-wing-like wings. Countless slender tentacles hung down from below its body, each tentacle adorned with glowing spots, like stars.

"They are bioluminescent organisms from the deep sea."

The crimson in Bai Yu's eyes faded: "It shouldn't be aggressive."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the deep-sea creature swam to the ship's side, its massive body gently brushing against the deck, its tentacles brushing against the cold hull and creating a trail of tiny sparks.

The deep blue light illuminated the edge of the deck, casting a dreamlike glow on everyone's faces.

Robin stood up and walked to the ship's side, reaching out her hand. Light shimmered on her fingertips, leaving a cool touch.

A hint of amazement flashed in her eyes, and the smile on her lips grew even gentler: "So beautiful...it's like holding the starry sky in your hands."

Rangiku also came over, looking at the deep-sea creature, and suddenly raised her hand to take off the sake bottle from her waist.

She weighed it in her hand, tilted her head back and took a sip, then slowly poured the rest of the wine onto the sea outside the ship's side.

The wine mixed with the seawater, creating a faint ripple. The deep-sea creature seemed to really like the taste of the wine, its tentacles gently curling around the area where the wine had spread, making the glowing spots even brighter.

Kanna reached out her little hand, wanting to touch the glowing tentacles, then tilted her head up, her eyes sparkling: "Sister Flower, it's so pretty."

Unohana gently patted her back and said softly, "Yes, this is the magic of this sea."

As she spoke, she raised her hand to brush away the snowflakes that had fallen on Kanna's hair, her gaze falling on the deep-sea creature: "I've seen similar glowing creatures before in Soul Society, but those were small flying creatures."

Bai Yu watched the figures of the group and the blue light flowing across the deck, and suddenly felt that this moment was so wonderful.

Rangiku ran to her room and took out a jar of flower petals. The pink petals fell into the pale blue light, like a gentle snowfall.

The deep-sea creature seemed to really like the soft petals; it gently curled up a few with its tentacles, then slowly retreated, swimming towards the deep sea.

Its body receded further and further away, yet its light did not dissipate, like a path studded with stars, stretching towards the dark seabed.

Only when that dark blue expanse completely disappeared from sight did everyone slowly come back to their senses.

Kanna sighed, her little face full of reluctance: "It's gone..."

"It's ok."

Robin crouched down and patted her head: "We'll encounter many more landscapes like this in the future."

The significance of the Grand Line has never been the treasure at the end, but the scenery encountered along the way and the people around you.

Chapter 91 The Little Garden

As the Dawn Breaker broke through the morning mist, the outline of Little Garden gradually became clear on the horizon. This spring island, enveloped in greenery, felt more like a treasure favored by the Creator. Even before setting foot on the island, one could already smell the sweet fragrance of flowers carried on the wind.

Clearly, the island's environment is exceptionally pleasant.

Bai Yu furled the anchor, and the group stepped onto the soft ground in the cool morning light. The path was covered with moss, making a rustling sound underfoot. At the same time, they were surrounded by ferns and gymnosperms that were taller than usual.

The plants on this island are noticeably more pristine than those on other islands.

"The air quality here is really good, and there are many plants that I have never seen before."

Robin squatted down, looking at the tall fern in front of him with some surprise.

The scenery on the island was far more magnificent than I had imagined.

The ancient trees reach for the sky, their trunks so thick that it takes several people to encircle them. Their branches stretch freely towards the sky, and their layers of leaves weave a dense green umbrella, filtering out dappled sunlight and casting shimmering spots of light on the ground.

Vines droop from the treetops, twining around the trunk, adorned with colorful flowers—red like fire, pink like the sunset, white like snow, and some exotic flowers never seen before, their petals shimmering with a pearly luster and emitting a refreshing fragrance.

The air is filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees, the sweet fragrance of flowers, and the moist aroma of earth, all blending together to create a soothing and comforting atmosphere.

"This island must have been an independent ecosystem for quite some time, so its plants are relatively primitive compared to other islands."

Bai Yu looked at the lush herbaceous plants growing on the ground, and the ferns taller than his knees, their feathery leaves unfurled, glistening with dewdrops, and began to explain.

Unidentified wild berries hung among the low bushes, red, purple, and yellow, plump and juicy. Kanna couldn't resist reaching out to pick them, but Robin gently pulled her back: "We don't know if they're poisonous yet. Let Baiyu take a look first."

Bai Yu bent down, picked up a purplish-red fruit, sniffed it lightly, scraped off a little pulp with his fingertip, tasted it, and nodded, saying, "It's not poisonous, it tastes sweet and sour, and you can eat it."

Kanna's eyes lit up immediately. She carefully picked a few, popped them into her mouth, and the sweet and sour juice burst on her tongue, bringing a satisfied smile to her face.

"good to eat!"

After walking for about half an hour, the path suddenly opened up, revealing a wide meadow with lush green grass stretching as far as the eye could see, rippling in waves when the wind blew.

A few clumps of unidentified shrubs dot the distant hillsides, and occasionally a white stream flows down from the mountains, meandering through the grassland.

It was quite wise that this small garden was in the period when gymnosperms were dominant, the trees were particularly tall, and the angiosperms were mostly grasses.

Just as everyone was immersed in the beautiful scenery, a series of heavy footsteps came from the depths of the grassland, the ground trembled slightly, accompanied by heavy breathing.

"What is that?" Rangiku gripped the sword at her waist, her eyes becoming wary.

Looking up, Bai Yu saw several enormous creatures appearing at the edge of the grassland. They were huge, with thick limbs, dark green skin covered with irregular yellowish-brown spots, and long necks stretched towards the sky, munching on leaves on the high ground.

"It was a herbivorous dinosaur."

Bai Yu said softly, "It doesn't seem aggressive."

The dinosaurs seemed to sense the approaching people. They stopped eating, turned their heads, and curiously looked at them with their huge eyes, letting out low growls. Then they continued to nibble on the leaves, completely ignoring these uninvited guests.

Kanna's eyes widened, her little hands gripping Bai Yu's clothes tightly, her face full of surprise: "Dinosaur? But it doesn't look like a dragon. Dragons are very intelligent from birth."

She stood on tiptoe, trying to see more clearly, her little face filled with excitement.

Robin stood to the side, a gentle smile in his eyes, and said softly, "What amazing creatures! I never expected to see such ancient life. Indeed, going to sea is the best way for scholars to broaden their horizons."

Just as everyone relaxed their guard and admired these enormous creatures, a sharp roar suddenly pierced the sky, filled with a violent and bloodthirsty aura.

The herbivorous dinosaurs were immediately terrified. They raised their heads and looked in the direction from which the sound came, then scattered and fled, their huge hooves kicking up dust.

"coming."

Rangiku immediately shielded Kanna behind her, her sharp eyes fixed on the source of the sound. Although theoretically Kanna didn't need protection, her cute appearance and soft body often led to misunderstandings.

Then, an even larger carnivorous dinosaur burst out of the forest. Its muscles were smooth and powerful, and its long tail swung as it balanced its body.

Its head was enormous, its mouth was full of sharp teeth and dripping with saliva, and its fierce eyes were fixed on the crowd, clearly regarding them as prey.

The carnivorous dinosaur let out a deafening roar, strutted forward on its powerful limbs, and charged towards the crowd, the ground pounding and dust billowing as it stomped its feet.

"You all step back."

Bai Yu stepped forward, blocking the way for the crowd. A flash of red light appeared in his eyes, and his three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly, capturing every movement of the carnivorous dinosaur.

Facing the oncoming behemoth, he leaned forward slightly, like a cheetah poised to pounce, just as the dinosaur was about to pounce.

A blur flashed by, and Bai Yu appeared beside the carnivorous dinosaur. He had no weapon in his hand, only his two fleshy paws, which he used to gather chakra.

He seized the opportunity and struck the carnivorous dinosaur on the neck with his palm. Chakra and Armament Haki erupted instantly, and the powerful force shattered the dinosaur's cervical vertebrae.

The carnivorous dinosaur let out a short, mournful cry, its massive body losing control and crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. It twitched a few times and then lay still.

Everything happened so fast that before anyone could react, it was all over.

Kanna's eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape, clearly still reeling from the near-death experience.

Unohana nodded gently: "Shiroha-kun's strength is truly reassuring."

Bai Yu turned around and said, "It's alright now."

He then walked over to the carnivorous dinosaur's carcass, examined it, and said, "The meat of this dinosaur should be of good quality; it's perfect for grilling."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with anticipation.

To be honest, they've never even eaten dinosaur meat before.

However, judging from its appearance, dinosaur meat is firm and should have a good balance of fat and lean meat, and the bones should contain a considerable amount of marrow...

Chapter 92 Dinosaur Meat

Rangiku immediately stepped forward and used a knife to cut off the dinosaur meat. Her knife skills were superb, and she quickly cut off a large piece of meat with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, as well as several pieces of leg meat with bones.

Robin then used her powers to summon an arm and set up a simple grill nearby, using thick branches as a support and covering it with fine branches and dry grass.

Bai Yu found some dry firewood, lit it with sparks, and the flames quickly grew strong, illuminating everyone's faces with warm yellow light.

He skewered the diced dinosaur meat with branches, placed it on the grill, and began to slowly roast it.

At first, the surface of the meat gradually tightens, and fine oil seeps out, dripping onto the flames and sizzling, producing plumes of thick smoke with a rich meaty aroma.

As the roasting time goes on, the aroma of the meat becomes richer and richer, and the enticing fragrance fills the air, making people's mouths water.

Bai Yu rotated the meat skewers from time to time to ensure the meat was heated evenly. He then took out some spices he carried with him from his backpack and sprinkled them evenly on the meat. The aroma of the spices mixed with the fragrance of the meat, making the taste even more tempting.
