Sea Circle Calendar, year 1490. Zou, New World.
"Wow, another Benevolence Rain! I wonder what good stuff Zunesha will spray out this time. Will there be shiny gold coins? Hehe!"
Having just stirred from sleep, Lilith rubbed her bleary eyes and hurried outside, her big, crystal-blue eyes brimming with anticipation.
At the thought of the treasure that might appear, the corners of her mouth unconsciously lifted as she murmured to herself.
"Lilith, don't get yourself soaked! This rain may be good, but catching a cold from it wouldn't be."
Lina's concerned call came from inside the house, her voice full of gentle reminders.
Lina had once been very hot-tempered and just as lively as Lilith, the big sister to everyone on the outskirts of this town.
But ever since her older sister had gone to sea, she had become much gentler in her role as Lilith's "mom."
"I know, Mom. I'll be careful!" Lilith answered brightly, her voice full of energy.
As the first light of dawn quietly fell over Zou like a thin veil, the Benevolence Rain seemed to receive a mysterious summons and began its dreamlike opening act.
The fine rain shimmered in the sunlight, like countless tiny diamonds falling from the sky, making all of Zou look like a painting or a poem.
Viewed from afar, the thousand-year-old giant elephant carrying Zou raised its thick trunk and sprayed vast amounts of seawater high into the sky.
In the light of the rising sun, the seawater resembled countless clear golden gemstones, sparkling with an enchanting radiance.
The droplets lingered briefly in the air before scattering downward, forming a dreamlike curtain of rain.
Bathed in the morning's Benevolence Rain, all of Zou resembled a fairyland favored by nature, filled with life and vitality.
Every part of the scenery radiated its own unique charm, drawing onlookers in and leaving them marveling at nature's extraordinary craftsmanship.
Along with the rain fell a small amount of debris Zunesha had sucked up from the sea.
Lilith watched the sky intently, her eyes rapidly sweeping over every black speck.
Her large, sapphire-like eyes had excellent vision and could see great distances.
Suddenly, her expression tightened. She actually spotted the figure of a child falling from the sky toward the Left Belly Forest like a meteor.
"Mom! Something terrible's happened! I think I saw someone fall out of the sky!" Lilith shouted, her face full of anxiety.
"Really?" Lina hurriedly answered from inside. "Then hurry up and get your big sister Iris to take a look!"
Hearing her mother's instructions, Lilith dared not waste a moment and sprinted toward Iris's house.
Lina's gaze sharpened as well. With a grave expression, she released her Observation Haki to sense the presences over by the forest. Sure enough, someone was falling from the sky.
She murmured quietly to herself, "It's not that I don't want to save you. I wouldn't get there in time. Iris can fly a little faster. Maybe she can save you."
Although the two houses were only a little over a hundred meters apart, that stretch of road felt unbearably long to Lilith at that moment.
In the blink of an eye, she rushed into Iris's house and shouted breathlessly, "Iris! Hurry over to the Left Belly Forest and take a look! I just saw someone fall out of the sky over there!"
Iris was busy preparing breakfast. At those words, her expression grew stern, and she immediately cut off Lilith, who was about to say more.
"I'll fly over and take a look. This is urgent," she said. "Go wait for me at Cook's clinic. You might be able to help there."
Lilith pursed her lips, thoroughly unwilling, but she also knew the situation was critical and that she could not be willful.
She could only turn around and head toward the clinic with somewhat heavy steps.
Iris flew above the forest and closed her eyes to sense the presences within. After circling a few times, she finally sensed a different presence in the center of the forest.
Fixing her sharp golden eyes on that spot, she spotted a figure.
She swooped down and saw that it was a child with a monkey's tail. After checking him carefully and finding that he was still alive, she hurried him to the clinic.
When Lilith saw Iris enter the clinic carrying a boy, she hurriedly asked, "Iris, is he all right?"
"He's alive, but I don't know how badly he's hurt."
"Hand him over, Iris. I need to examine him," Cook said.
Iris laid him on a hospital bed. Cook examined him and thought, His injuries should be serious after falling from that height. How is he recovering so quickly?
But Cook said, "He's fine. Luckily, the dense forest softened the impact of his fall. He only has a few scratches. He should wake up soon."
"Ow, why does my whole body hurt so much?" Rot struggled to open his eyes, only to find himself in an unfamiliar room. Looking around, he realized it was probably a room in a clinic.
The room was simply furnished, with a bed covered in thick animal hides taking up most of the space.
A small table stood beside the bed, holding an oil lamp and some simple medical equipment, such as bandages and tweezers.
He carefully climbed out of bed, only to discover that he had grown shorter. There was also something extra behind his backside. Feeling it with his hand, he discovered it was a tail-a monkey's tail!
His pupils contracted, and he nearly cried out, but he still did not know what situation he was in, so he forced himself to hold it back.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his head, and a flood of unfamiliar memories poured into his mind. Before long, Rot returned to normal, his eyes filled with excitement he could barely contain.
"Hahaha! I'm actually a Saiyan! Have I transmigrated, then? Is this the Dragon Ball world, or somewhere else?" Rot suppressed the excitement in his heart.
Faintly hearing voices outside, he opened the door and walked toward them, cautiously looking into the clinic's main hall. There were three people there.
One was a beautiful woman with eagle-like golden eyes and long, smooth blue hair that resembled the deep ocean.
She wore a lightweight white feathered robe, with a pair of huge, magnificent wings spread behind her and a bow and quiver on her back.
Another looked like a humanoid goat, his head retaining the distinctive features of a goat.
A pair of curved horns extended diagonally from the top of his head. Their smooth surfaces gleamed softly as they caught the light, as though bearing witness to the passage of time.
Although his hands had human contours, the pads of his fingers were covered in fine down, and his nails were hard and slightly curved, like polished horn.
The last was a little girl of about ten, with long white hair falling smoothly over her shoulders, shimmering softly in the sunlight.
Her ears were shaped like a white tiger's and stood upright on either side of her head. Their backs were white, their insides a tender pink, and a small tuft of black fur adorned each tip, making them very cute.
Her large eyes were like clear sapphires, bright and limpid, with long, thick eyelashes that resembled butterfly wings when she blinked.
Her small nose tilted slightly upward and had a faint pink tint.
Her lips were as pink and tender as fresh cherry blossoms. When she smiled, she revealed a neat row of little white teeth, with two small canines that looked especially cute.
Her skin was as white as snow, delicate and smooth, with a faint pink glow in the sunlight.
A long white tail hung behind her, marked with black stripes and tipped in black.
Aren't these the Mink Tribe from One Piece? Have I transmigrated into the world of One Piece? Rot thought.
And there's actually an eagle mink, plus a white-haired catgirl. They both look so human! Only that goat looks like the minks I remember, doesn't he? Rot was puzzled.
