Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

"Hey, everyone! We can see the island ahead."

Luffy, who was sitting at the bow, suddenly shouted excitedly.

After a not-so-short sailing trip, the Straw Hat Pirates finally arrived at their next destination.

The music island of Elegia is about to host a grand concert!

"Oh~~~It looks really good." Meli blinked her starry eyes and looked at the gorgeous stage, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Indeed, it no longer looks like this island has ever been destroyed." Robin hugged Merry and caressed her while nodding: "It seems that Miss Uta is indeed very charismatic."

"Of course Robin, Miss Uta is the most popular singer in recent years." Usopp rubbed his nose and continued, "I don't know how many people have been healed by Miss Uta's singing over the years."

"What the hell is this proud look on your face?" Nami couldn't help but complain, "It's like you know her very well."

On the other side, Jinbei soon discovered something.

He stuck his head out and said in surprise: "Even the residents of Mermaid Island are here?! It seems that Miss Uta's influence is greater than I thought."

"Of course. This is the first time that Ms. Uta has held a concert for her fans. In the past, we could only hear Ms. Uta singing through the video Den Den Mushi. Now I can be so close to Ms. Uta. I simply..."

Chopper, sitting on Zoro's neck, waved the glow stick in his hand excitedly, and was so moved that he couldn't even speak.

When he got excited, Chopper's two short legs couldn't help but swing around randomly, making Zoro below look very upset.

"Hey, hey, hey, Chopper, be quiet."

Zoro grabbed Chopper with one hand to tell him not to move, while pulling at his clothes, seeming to be very uncomfortable.

He was seen wearing a suit with bright patterns, which was completely different from his previous image.

Even the green headband that she wore most often was changed to pink with Uta's name printed on it.

This is the look of a die-hard UTA fan.

Of course, this is also compared between Zoro and ordinary audiences. After all, most of those people are poor and cannot afford such fancy clothes.

But compared to the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, Zoro can be considered plain.

Zoro looked at the people around him who were dressed in fancy clothes, and couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead and said, "I say, have you forgotten the purpose of our trip? We are not here to listen to the concert at all, but you all seem to be so leisurely... huh?"

Before Zoro could finish his words, his eyes suddenly focused, and his observation Haki caught a hint of murderous intent!

The next second, Chopper was thrown into the air by Zoro and his whole body bent down instantly.

At the same time, a flaming whip kick passed over his cheek.

Then, Sanji's angry voice sounded: "What are you talking about, you bastard! Show some respect to Miss Uta!"

Sanji, dressed in a gorgeous gentleman's suit and holding flowers, looked angry.

As a man who believes in chivalry, he "really" means business to Zoro.

"Ha! You lewd kappa, who cares about you!" Zoro stretched out one hand to catch the screaming Chopper, and with the other hand he drew out Yan Mo and pointed it at Sanji: "Don't think I will be the same as you."

Just when the two were on the verge of a fight, Brook, who was also dressed in bright colors, stood between them:

"Yo ho ho, this is the first concert of Ms. Uta, who has a world-class singing voice. You two better not do anything, or I'll be sad."

"Although I am a skeleton and don't have a heart, yo ho ho ho."

"That's right, no matter what the purpose is, before that, we still have to enjoy this concert! Su~per!!!"

While everyone was arguing, the Merry had already docked at a small island closest to the stage, and everyone boarded the island while playing and joking.

Looking around -

This island, which once gathered some of the world's best musicians, has regained its vitality since its destruction.

Countless people attracted by the mysterious girl Uta came here, looking forward to her first concert.

"Uta!"

"Ms. Uta, I love your singing the most!"

"Thank you, Miss Uta!"

"Let us listen carefully this time, Miss Uta!"

"It's better to keep the concert going, I never get tired of listening to it!"

...

On the surrounding islands that were divided into audience seats, countless fans shouted something towards the center of the stage that had been set up, expressing their inner excitement.

Although Uta has not appeared yet, they can no longer contain their excitement.

Behind the stage, Uta, dressed in gorgeous clothes, naturally heard the shouting outside.

She slowly closed her eyes and recalled the days of the past years.

Ever since Shanks and the others left, Uta has been with Gordon, the king of the music island Elegia and her adoptive father for many years.

Because her country was destroyed, Uta has been living an extremely lonely life. Apart from singing every day, she has no way to understand the outside world.

This made her, who was once a member of the Red Hair Pirates, very painful. She had seen so many beautiful sights, but now she could only live day after day like a bird trapped in a cage.

Until one day, Uta picked up a video-recording mushi that was washed ashore from somewhere.

From then on, Uta once again had contact with the outside world.

Through Den Den Mushi, Uta conveys her feelings to the whole world along with her singing.

Like a virus, Uta quickly became a world-renowned singer with countless fans from all over the world.

But at the same time, Uta also received countless messages from fans through Den Den Mushi.

"My parents were killed by pirates, Uta."

"The pirates raided our village and took all our food."

"Those damn pirates..."

...

Uta opened her eyes, and those voices still seemed to echo in her ears.

Almost every day, she could hear these people crying to her and cursing the pirates.

It seemed as if these people hated pirates as much as they loved him.

Countless words filled with sorrow and anger entered Uta's ears through the Den Den Mushi.

Uta was in pain, but her love for her fans made her empathize with the grievances and anger.

Among her fans, there are little girls who are only a few years old, and aunts with scarred hands...

They have been living very hard, but they are still dragged into the abyss by pirates again.

Until now, even Uta had not realized that she had already been eroded by this resentment that was so huge that no one could contain it.

She now has only one thought -

[She wants to create a world without pirates. ]

As Uta walked up the steps and passed through the thick curtain, she slowly muttered in her heart:

It's coming soon, everyone!

New Era!!

It’s coming!!!

Accompanied by the passionate band performance, Uta made a brilliant appearance!

Beams of light gathered on Uta, who raised her right hand, and the concert officially began!
