In the second year of the Zhenguan era, at the Daming Palace in Chang'an.
The two-and-a-half-year-old Princess Jinyang, Li Mingda, nicknamed Little Si Zi, could barely speak clearly and always pronounced “yes” as “yie.” With her tiny legs pumping, she chased butterflies through the imperial garden and ran straight into a beam of white light that appeared out of nowhere.
When she opened her eyes again, a salty sea breeze rushed against her face.
She had fallen onto the harbor at Shells Town in the East Blue, where she came upon Roronoa Zoro, who had just been tied to an execution platform, and Monkey D. Luffy, wearing a straw hat with a bright gleam in his eyes.
The bewildered little girl accidentally took a bite of a strange fruit and became a Logia Devil Fruit User, with the power of the Haze-Haze Fruit. When frightened, she scattered into white mist; when happy, tiny droplets of water drifted around her; when she cried, even the rain came pouring down.
She became the youngest member of the Straw Hat Pirates, and the entire crew's most cherished darling.
Luffy gave her his last piece of meat, Zoro shielded her from every blade, Sanji cooked her special nutritious meals every day, Nami wrapped her in the softest cloak, Usopp told her stories of heroes on the sea day after day, Chopper rolled around and played with her on deck, Robin softly read her legends from distant lands, Franky built her a princess cabin of her own, and Brook hummed her lullabies.
No one knew that this babbling little girl could cross between two worlds with a single step.
One day in the pirate world was ten days in Tang Dynasty Chang'an during the Zhenguan era.
Carrying high-yield crops, refined steel, surgical manuals, and textile techniques, she traveled back and forth between east and west, bringing knowledge and goods from across the sea back to Chang'an in an endless stream.
The imperial estates reaped bumper harvests of new crops, the Ministry of Works forged heavy armor, the Imperial Medical Academy modernized its medical practices, and new fabrics were woven throughout the cities and towns.
By a happy accident, the adorable little princess steadily propelled the Zhenguan Golden Age forward, becoming a blessed omen secretly guarded within the Tang palace to protect the empire. She even brought Luo back with her.
Pretty good~Xiao Sizi [laughs]
