Ultimate Blade Shadow in One Piece Navy
Chapter 737 Reversing Black and White
"Uta? Why is Uta singing again? She obviously has no physical strength."
In the Song Fruit World, everyone sitting in the air panting was a little shocked when they heard the sudden singing, especially Luffy.
Just after fighting that Totomiuska, he could already clearly feel Uta's weakness. With her condition, if it weren't for Sleepless Gu, she would have died long ago.
She can no longer even sustain the soul world she created. It is impossible for her to still have the energy to sing at this time.
Robbie was obviously more awake than Luffy who was also struggling. He frowned, looked at the misty sea in the distance, and said, "It's not Uta's singing, it's Lieutenant General Skyler's singing."
"Yes, it is the singing voice of Madam Sir, yo ho ho ho~ I never thought that I would be able to hear the singing voice of Madam Sir again in my lifetime, no...I am already dead."
Brooke was still making stupid skeleton jokes, and no one except Luffy was laughing, because at this time, the singing voice, which was different from Skyler's usual speech and incorporated into the ups and downs of his voice, came again.
"iwalkonwater~
butofreezes~”
I walk on water, but I am not God. I walk on water, but only when it is frozen.
The lyrics are very straightforward, and the allusions are also very simple, but Brooke touched the bone seam of his chin and murmured: "Doing extraordinary things is like walking on thin ice..."
As the ultimate veteran singer who has been famous in the music industry since decades ago, Brooke's understanding of music is far beyond ordinary people.
Even though Skyler didn't sing very seriously, but more like humming on the bedside to lull him to sleep, Brooke still began to analyze unconsciously.
Walkonwater not only means walking on water, nor does it just refer to the allusion of dividing the sea, it can also be used to describe extraordinary things that are difficult to accomplish.
Obviously, Brooke also thought of this. This was within the scope of his expertise. He looked at the frozen sea where Skyler was standing with some surprise.
How appropriate are the lyrics Skyler was humming at this time?Not only this scene, but also a reflection of her past, Skyler has been doing extraordinary things since she became famous.
After completing one incredible thing after another, Skyler has now been exalted to a height beyond the reach of mortals. In some people's hearts, Skyler has even replaced the position of God.
But only Skyler and the people who accompanied her in completing incredible things knew the dangers Skyler faced along the way. She lived to achieve success, but the hardships and dangers involved were difficult for ordinary people to understand.
Therefore, Brooke felt that the lines hummed by Skyler were very appropriate.
At the same time, Brooke also realized that Skyler was actually advising Uta that Uta had created a world in which Uta was almost omnipotent.
And when she said that she wanted to bring people into a new era, she was undoubtedly placing herself in the position of a god. However, Skyler used herself as an example and told Uta that even she was not a god. What ability does Ta have to claim to be a god?
After all, Skyler has more than once denied what people call the "era" she ushered in, or the "new era" she is about to lead the world to.
Brook recalled that whenever her superiors were asked such questions, they would always say that the world is made up of the masses, the times are created by the masses, and she just happened to be in the limelight.
You know, Skyler has never been a modest or inferior person. She should be arrogant and will not be weaker than others at all. She only never agrees with heroes creating the situation.
He obviously has the power to dominate others, but he never thinks that he is superior to others. Thinking of this, Brooke thought of the lightning kid in the detachment.
He doesn't have much strength, but he keeps shouting that he is a so-called god. It's just that he has been beaten too many times over the years, so he doesn't dare to say such things easily.
"...ifiwalkedonn~"
While Brooke's thoughts were turning, Skyler had stopped humming. She only hummed for a short period. The first was that it was not a good time to sing karaoke at all. The second was that she had long been unable to remember too many songs and lyrics. .
Skyler stopped humming, looked at Uta who had calmed down, and said, "I've finished singing, can you wake up now and bring everyone back to reality?"
Uta did not answer immediately, but remained silent for a while and said: "Lieutenant General Skyler, was I your mistake?"
"???"
Skyler looked confused, but Uta stared at Skyler and said: "I am 21 years old... When I was a child, I heard Uncle Ben say that 22 years ago, the red-haired pirates met the Zhanye detachment in the East China Sea. ..
And 21 years ago, you returned to the Navy Headquarters, but soon, you, who was only a colonel at the time, were sent to the new world... Was it a punishment? "
Skyler, who had already reacted and noticed something was wrong in Uta's words, turned gloomy and frowned tightly, saying: "I don't know where you got the information from, but it's all wrong information.
I don't care if someone told you this information or you just made it up your own mind, but I have nothing to do with you. Now, wake up and let everyone return to reality. "
Skyler's tone no longer had the ups and downs like when he was humming just now, but returned to the level that was as flat as stagnant water without any ups and downs.
Hearing this, the corners of Uta's mouth gradually drooped, and the hope in his eyes faded little by little. The hand holding the skirt gradually became harder, and his breathing became short, as if he was suppressing sobs.
"I...I understand, please don't...don't be angry..."
Uta still let go of his hands, and then, holding on to the smooth ice surface, he carefully used his strength and kept trying to exert force to stand up.
When she finally stood firm, she looked at Skyler who was doing it a head faster than her. She didn't seem to know where to put her hands, but just grabbed the ends of her hair.
One hand had red hair like blood and fire, and the other hand had white hair that looked like it had been colored by peach blossoms. As Uta kept pulling on the ends of her hair, her head kept being lowered.
"Actually, I know that I was picked up by Shanks. I have no father or mother...but...just like me...I clearly know that I destroyed Eregia. ..”
Uta spoke intermittently with a heavy nasal voice. Shanks outside the barrier looked at Uta's trembling body and the words that were suppressing sobs.
Shanks also gradually lowered his head, covering his face with his hands, and his shoulders shook at an imperceptible level.
"As long as you know."
But at this moment, Skyler's emotionless voice sounded again. After Uta heard this, his body even stopped shaking, as if it was still there.
Shanks raised his head, his eyes filled with tears that he didn't know when, looked at Skyler's back, and there was a pleading in his eyes that he had never seen before.
'What if I lied to her even once? '
Iregia and the few people who were still awake looked at Shanks and Uta in Shanks' arms. Tears were flowing out of their tightly closed eyes, and they all showed some confusion.
Kizaru, who was isolated outside the circle, saw the red-haired pirate leader's absent-mindedness, and his blurred eyes behind the visor suddenly lit up, and his right hand was slightly raised.
"Da~"
But Yisheng's left hand was pressing on Kizaru's right hand. Kizaru turned his head to look at Yisheng with some doubts, but at this time, Yisheng's white eyes also had fluorescent lights.
Obviously, this general who could not see anything might have seen more than anyone else at this time.
Kizaru doesn't understand very well, but he is a person who respects his colleagues very much. After all... it is a very troublesome thing if he disagrees with his colleagues, just like Sakaski and Kuzan.
Thinking of those two people, Kizaru put down his raised right hand calmly and put it into his pocket.
At this time, Uta, who was lying in Shanks' arms, slowly opened her eyes. She opened her eyes and looked around. She looked at the countless civilians and sailors lying on the ground around her, with guilt on her face.
"iwalkonwater~"
No one expected that Uta would start singing immediately after waking up. It was at this time that the fruit's ability was activated along with the singing, spreading throughout Iregia and the entire world through the relay phone bug. .
"Uta..."
Seeing the guilt and exhaustion in Uta's eyes, the big cadres of the red-haired group also buried their heads deeply at this time, because Uta's current situation was caused by their past immaturity.
Whether it was being used by TotMusica to unconsciously awaken the demon king and destroy Iregia, or whether it was her loneliness for more than ten years that gave her a one-sided and extreme vision and personality.
This was all because of their immaturity. For more than ten years, they had been accused of destroying a kingdom, but they had no intention of getting rid of it.
Because... this is their responsibility. They should have taken care of and protect Uta, because they are Uta's parents, but if they didn't do it well, they should bear all this.
The German singer clutched a medicine bottle tightly. Looking at Uta, whose eyes were full of guilt and exhaustion, but still singing loudly, his nose and throat seemed to be blocked, and he could not say anything.
"'causei'monlyhumanjustlikeyou~makingmymistakesohifyouonlyknew~"
I'm just a human being like you, and you know, I make mistakes...
Such lyrics were like sharp knives piercing the hearts of everyone in the red-haired group. They didn't know that Uta was just covering the lyrics hummed by Skyler, thinking that this was Uta's heartfelt voice.
At that time, they just thought that they did not want Uta to bear the fault of destroying a kingdom, but they never thought about whether the eight-year-old girl could accept the loss of her family.
They thought that by shouldering the blame and infamy, Uta could continue to live without any burden, but they never thought about whether that girl could calmly accept that her family members had become enemies.
They just... abandoned Uta, abandoned her in this country full of death and lamentations, and took away everything she had.
Uta's singing gradually became weak, but the eyelids of those who were unconscious in Iregia began to beat, and their hands and feet also resumed some movements.
"Da~"
Shanks raised his head, and tears suddenly fell on Uta's forehead. Uta also stopped singing at this time, and the fatigue in her eyes slowly faded away. It was not that her emotions disappeared, but that she was about to fall into a coma again, and this time ...
She couldn't wake up anymore.
Shanks anxiously grabbed the medicine bottle from De Singer and was about to feed it to Uta, but Uta used the last bit of strength to push Shanks' hand away because Shanks' hand blocked her sight.
At this time, everyone discovered that a translucent figure was standing in front of Uta.
"Skyler-chan?~"
"Lieutenant General Skyler?"
Others also discovered the translucent figure at this time, but Skyler seemed not to notice them. This was indeed the case. Skyler, who was in his soul state at this time, could only vaguely see Uta.
A feeling of being pulled away was lingering around her at this time, and Skyler also realized that she would return to her body at any time.
Uta looked at Skyler, a smile appeared on his tear-stained face, stretched out his hand towards Skyler, and said like a coquettish person: "Are you lying to me?...mama..."
Skyler didn't answer, and his expression didn't change at all. He waited quietly. Shanks clenched his fist again at this time, and the dark glass bottle even had white marks due to the squeeze of his palm.
The corners of Uta's mouth that had been raised with all his strength were now lowered a little bit again, like a child who had made a mistake, begging his suddenly silent parents to speak.
Whether it's a forgiving smile or an angry reprimand, perhaps it's what they long for. What they fear most is this silence like late night in winter.
Finally, Skyler's figure still faded a little bit, until it completely disappeared. Until it disappeared, she never gave any response, admission or denial, not even meaningless syllables.
"Da~"
Utana raised her hand, waiting for someone to hold her hand. At this time, it finally fell, falling weakly on the grass, and there was no more luster in her eyes.
"Sigh~"
Shanks took a deep breath, put his left hand under the crook of Uta's leg, and supported her shoulder with his right hand. He stood up slowly and walked towards the Red Forth in the port.
The leaders of the red-haired pirate group also lowered their heads, hunched their waists, stood up slowly, and followed Shanks.
At this time, some unconscious marines slowly woke up, but more people were still lying on the ground. Those who got up first seemed to have entered the world of song fruit later.
As the Red Voss set sail, the others gradually woke up. Luffy, who opened his eyes, immediately stood up and looked into the distance, while asking anxiously: "Where is Uta?"
The other people who woke up at this time also kept turning their heads to search, but no one could find Uta. Luffy turned to look at Gu Yina, who had remained awake, and asked:
"Gu Yina, have you seen Uta?"
Gu Yina gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said as calmly as possible: "She was taken away by the red-haired pirates."
"Shanks and the others?" Luffy suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, "It should be fine."
He didn't notice Gu Yina's weird attitude and the two generals who always remained silent. Luo looked at Rosinandi who had been hiding aside and crying.
Although no one told him the answer, Luo had already guessed that maybe this time... there would not be a happy ending.
"Bru~Bru~"
As the navy woke up, phone calls were quickly made towards the headquarters one by one.
Outside a conference room at the Navy Headquarters, Sakaski and others were waiting outside the door, listening to the ringtone of the phone that kept ringing, but no one dared to answer the call.
Because... half an hour has passed since the last call from Rosinandi, which made everyone think of the worst outcome.
They didn't dare to answer the call right away, and they didn't even dare to use the Haki of Insight to sense Skylar's state in the conference room.
"Card~"
Suddenly, the door handle of the door suddenly turned, and then the door opened directly, and Skyler's figure appeared in front of everyone. Sakaski breathed a sigh of relief, and his face showed joy.
Sure enough, Lieutenant General Skyler never disappoints!
"How's it going? Nothing unexpected happened, right?"
Sakaski, who breathed a sigh of relief, quickly asked, and Warring States also said at this time: "I don't think Rosinandi should be promoted yet. This mission shows that his ability is not enough."
Skyler glanced at Garp first, then looked at Sakaski and Sengoku, shook his head and said:
"When I arrived, they had actually completed the task long ago, and they completed it very well. It was just that their judgment of the situation was slightly biased. I was... in vain."
Skyler didn't tell everything that happened, after all...she didn't know how to describe it, plus this mission was related to the promotion of Rosinandi, a dedicated senior and subordinate...
In this mission, Rosinandi did not do well, or even poorly, because according to waves of intelligence reports, almost all of the casualties were caused by the navy.
In his planning, Rosinandi gave those young people too much freedom and did not restrict their actions. The previously formulated strategy almost collapsed.
After all, the world of Song Fruit was created by Uta. The Navy had no idea what was going on inside, so the previous strategy also focused on the real world.
The most ideal situation is to complete the task without touching the world of the Song Fruit at all. In this regard, Rosinandi undoubtedly failed in executing it.
Of course, one factor that cannot be ignored is that the navy he dispatched is Ace and Luffy. For these fools, it is estimated that the entire navy, and Skyler's order has the effect that a military order should have.
Let alone Rosinandi, even if Marshal Sakaski personally supervises, when it is time to act like a monster, these young people will not worry about the consequences.
However, Rosinandi still failed to execute the mission plan well. Even if the impact is now completely controllable, it will still cause criticism from many people.
Especially in the end, when they solved the enemy, they were still unable to contact the crisis and needed to ask for help again. It was a moment of failure. As Rosinandi's adoptive father, Sengoku knew that he must not ignore these factors at this time.
Therefore, he denies the credit of Rosinandi's actions this time. In this way, no one will discuss Rosinandi's fault too harshly.
And with Rocinante's character, he will accept this result honestly.Of course, if the Warring States Period insisted on promoting Rosinandi, not many people would object.
It's just that the Warring States Period would not do this. The Navy could give Rosinandi a promotion for his sake, but the criticism that Rosinandi would have to endure would not be small.
But what Warring States didn't expect was that as soon as Skyler opened his mouth, he immediately erased Rosinandi's biggest failure in this mission and bluntly stated that the mission had been completed.
The so-called subsequent request for help was just a misjudgment, and the navy did not pay any extra price. In this way, Rosinandi would have to endure much less criticism after his promotion.
As for not following the mission plan?Rosinandi is Skyler's soldier, and those new generations are also brought out by Skyler. This is a very critical point.
As long as you hint to others in the follow-up mission report, other generals will understand. After all, the so-called top beam is not correct... What kind of generals lead what kind of soldiers.
Skyler, a person who never follows a plan, brought out a group of marines who also took an unconventional path. This is something that is easy to understand and forgive.
In addition, although it did not go according to plan, the overall performance of the mission was very good, wasn't it?After all, a crisis that threatened the whole world was resolved with very few casualties.
Warring States glanced at Skyler gratefully, but did not speak. At this time, he had nothing to say.
Agree with Skyler?There is a feeling that one person sings one song and one person is selected.Against Skyler?First, not to give face to Skyler, Rosinandi's superior, and secondly... Warring States also hopes that Rosinandi will be promoted.
At this time, a person who understands the Warring States Period is very important. He understood the meaning of the two people, nodded, and said: "After all, Rosinandi rarely goes to the front line. It is worth understanding to be more cautious."
Crane's words defined the nature of Rossinandi's request for help from the headquarters as acting cautiously. After all, Skyler's previous wrong judgment was not a good trait.
It is different to describe errors in judgment as acting with caution. After all, prudence is a good quality in any organization or person.
The words of each of the three people had already set the tone of the whole matter. Sakaski, the talker, nodded in approval after all these twists and turns.
Zefa on the side, looking at the suddenly enlightened Sakaski, almost wanted to cover his face and deny that this was his student. In three words, the three of them directly reversed the right and wrong, and even had a wave of desire to rise before suppressing.Marshal Sakaski didn't notice anything was wrong? !
Nurkic suppressed a smile. After all, not many people can be deceived by their parents. Marshal Sakaski... cherishes human beings.
Skyler was afraid that Sakaski would react, so he changed the topic directly, looked at Garp, and said, "Have you ordered food?"
Garp, who had a bastard smile on his face, suddenly stiffened, then looked at Dorag and said, "This brat said he would take care of it! Brat! Didn't you say that it's rare to get back to the navy and you want to treat everyone to dinner?"
Dorag: “???!
! ”
In the Song Fruit World, everyone sitting in the air panting was a little shocked when they heard the sudden singing, especially Luffy.
Just after fighting that Totomiuska, he could already clearly feel Uta's weakness. With her condition, if it weren't for Sleepless Gu, she would have died long ago.
She can no longer even sustain the soul world she created. It is impossible for her to still have the energy to sing at this time.

"Bru~Bru~"
As the navy woke up, phone calls were quickly made towards the headquarters one by one.
Outside a conference room at the Navy Headquarters, Sakaski and others were waiting outside the door, listening to the ringtone of the phone that kept ringing, but no one dared to answer the call.
Because... half an hour has passed since the last call from Rosinandi, which made everyone think of the worst outcome.
They didn't dare to answer the call right away, and they didn't even dare to use the Haki of Insight to sense Skylar's state in the conference room.
"Card~"
Suddenly, the door handle of the door suddenly turned, and then the door opened directly, and Skyler's figure appeared in front of everyone. Sakaski breathed a sigh of relief, and his face showed joy.
Sure enough, Lieutenant General Skyler never disappoints!
"How's it going? Nothing unexpected happened, right?"
Sakaski, who breathed a sigh of relief, quickly asked, and Warring States also said at this time: "I don't think Rosinandi should be promoted yet. This mission shows that his ability is not enough."
Skyler glanced at Garp first, then looked at Sakaski and Sengoku, shook his head and said:
"When I arrived, they had actually completed the task long ago, and they completed it very well. It was just that their judgment of the situation was slightly biased. I was... in vain."
Skyler didn't tell everything that happened, after all...she didn't know how to describe it, plus this mission was related to the promotion of Rosinandi, a dedicated senior and subordinate...
In this mission, Rosinandi did not do well, or even poorly, because according to waves of intelligence reports, almost all of the casualties were caused by the navy.
In his planning, Rosinandi gave those young people too much freedom and did not restrict their actions. The previously formulated strategy almost collapsed.
After all, the world of Song Fruit was created by Uta. The Navy had no idea what was going on inside, so the previous strategy also focused on the real world.
The most ideal situation is to complete the task without touching the world of the Song Fruit at all. In this regard, Rosinandi undoubtedly failed in executing it.
Of course, one factor that cannot be ignored is that the navy he dispatched is Ace and Luffy. For these fools, it is estimated that the entire navy, and Skyler's order has the effect that a military order should have.
Let alone Rosinandi, even if Marshal Sakaski personally supervises, when it is time to act like a monster, these young people will not worry about the consequences.
However, Rosinandi still failed to execute the mission plan well. Even if the impact is now completely controllable, it will still cause criticism from many people.
Especially in the end, when they solved the enemy, they were still unable to contact the crisis and needed to ask for help again. It was a moment of failure. As Rosinandi's adoptive father, Sengoku knew that he must not ignore these factors at this time.
Therefore, he denies the credit of Rosinandi's actions this time. In this way, no one will discuss Rosinandi's fault too harshly.
And with Rocinante's character, he will accept this result honestly.Of course, if the Warring States Period insisted on promoting Rosinandi, not many people would object.
It's just that the Warring States Period would not do this. The Navy could give Rosinandi a promotion for his sake, but the criticism that Rosinandi would have to endure would not be small.
But what Warring States didn't expect was that as soon as Skyler opened his mouth, he immediately erased Rosinandi's biggest failure in this mission and bluntly stated that the mission had been completed.
The so-called subsequent request for help was just a misjudgment, and the navy did not pay any extra price. In this way, Rosinandi would have to endure much less criticism after his promotion.
As for not following the mission plan?Rosinandi is Skyler's soldier, and those new generations are also brought out by Skyler. This is a very critical point.
As long as you hint to others in the follow-up mission report, other generals will understand. After all, the so-called top beam is not correct... What kind of generals lead what kind of soldiers.
Skyler, a person who never follows a plan, brought out a group of marines who also took an unconventional path. This is something that is easy to understand and forgive.
In addition, although it did not go according to plan, the overall performance of the mission was very good, wasn't it?After all, a crisis that threatened the whole world was resolved with very few casualties.
Warring States glanced at Skyler gratefully, but did not speak. At this time, he had nothing to say.
Agree with Skyler?There is a feeling that one person sings one song and one person is selected.Against Skyler?First, not to give face to Skyler, Rosinandi's superior, and secondly... Warring States also hopes that Rosinandi will be promoted.
At this time, a person who understands the Warring States Period is very important. He understood the meaning of the two people, nodded, and said: "After all, Rosinandi rarely goes to the front line. It is worth understanding to be more cautious."
Crane's words defined the nature of Rossinandi's request for help from the headquarters as acting cautiously. After all, Skyler's previous wrong judgment was not a good trait.
It is different to describe errors in judgment as acting with caution. After all, prudence is a good quality in any organization or person.
The words of each of the three people had already set the tone of the whole matter. Sakaski, the talker, nodded in approval after all these twists and turns.
Zefa on the side, looking at the suddenly enlightened Sakaski, almost wanted to cover his face and deny that this was his student. In three words, the three of them directly reversed the right and wrong, and even had a wave of desire to rise before suppressing.Marshal Sakaski didn't notice anything was wrong? !
Nurkic suppressed a smile. After all, not many people can be deceived by their parents. Marshal Sakaski... cherishes human beings.
Skyler was afraid that Sakaski would react, so he changed the topic directly, looked at Garp, and said, "Have you ordered food?"
Garp, who had a bastard smile on his face, suddenly stiffened, then looked at Dorag and said, "This brat said he would take care of it! Brat! Didn't you say that it's rare to get back to the navy and you want to treat everyone to dinner?"
Dorag: “???!
! ”
