Pirates: Beginning with the Patrolman.

Uta was exactly as Remus remembered, even the voice was identical.

"Hello, please sit down."

Remus smiled and nodded.

Wububu consciously helped Wuta move a chair, poured tea, and then took the initiative to leave.

After he left, Remos turned his attention back to Uta.

"Ububu told me that you said you and I have a connection? Actually, before this moment, I had never seen you, and my knowledge of you was only from what I read in the newspapers, so I am very curious about what exactly the connection you are talking about is."

Remus asked with a smile, his hands on his knees.

"Actually, I lied. You and I have no connection. If you must say something, does the fact that you know Red-Haired Shanks count?"

Uta said honestly.

This answer surprised Remos a little. He didn't expect Uta to be so straightforward to admit that he had lied. What he didn't expect was that Uta would explain it from this perspective.

"Red-Haired Shanks... To be honest, I do know him. We had a brief exchange during the battle with Whitebeard, but I'm a little curious, what is the relationship between you and Red-Haired Shanks?"

Of course he knew what the relationship between the two was, but he was an outsider after all. Under normal circumstances, he would not have known such a private matter.

"Shanks, well, he's kind of my father."

"Father?"

"Adoptive father... What, Your Excellency the Duke wants to arrest me? I'd like to make it clear that I'm not a pirate."

Uta winked at Remus.

Remus shook his head.

"I won't attack you just because of something like this. You're not a pirate, and you haven't hurt anyone before. I have no reason to attack you."

In fact, Uta has hurt others. Not to mention the future "New Genesis" plan, just talking about the past, Uta once released demons with singing on the island of Elegia and massacred the residents. Of course, she was not aware of the whole thing at that time and fell into the trap of the devil. Moreover, Shanks has taken the initiative to take the blame on himself, so Remos has no reason to hold Uta responsible.

What he was more curious about now was that, if nothing unexpected happened, Uta should still hate Shanks, so why would he use Shanks' name to get closer to him?

Secondly, what was her purpose in taking the initiative to see him?

So he took the initiative to ask this question, of course he only asked the second half of the question.

"The main reason I want to meet you is because you hate pirates as much as I do. So I hope to ask you to do me a favor. Please help me defeat Shanks."

"..."

Remos looked at Uta opposite him in astonishment.

"Wait, are you sure you're not talking nonsense? Shanks is your adopted father, and you want me to... defeat him?"

This was truly a development that he had never expected. He had thought that Uta was preparing to carry out the "New Genesis" plan in Alabasta and was still trying to find a solution, but he did not expect that the other party's target was Shanks.

"Yes, although he is my adopted father, I hate him, his pirate group, and all pirates. You hate pirates just as much. Defeating him is not against your will."

Uta stared at Remos and said seriously.

"It is certainly not against my will."

Remos shook his head, "But why do you think I can beat Shanks? Don't you know he's a Yonko?"

"The Four Emperors? What are those?"

Uta asked, tilting his head, looking confused.

"..."

Remos: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

No, this girl really doesn’t know what the Four Emperors are!

Remos did know one thing, which was that Uta's knowledge of pirates was terribly low. In the original work, after seeing the photos of Doflamingo and Big Mom, she had no idea of ​​their identities, nor did she know that these two were the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Four Emperors. Instead, she began to comment on their sense of fashion and the problems with the photos themselves.

He is simply a super naive person.

Now that he saw the real person, he found that Uta was even more outrageous than he knew.

As Shanks' adopted daughter, she didn't even know Shanks' status.

"There are so many things you need to know that I don't even know where to start... Let me first introduce you to the various forces on the sea. It would be best if you have a basic understanding of them."

Next, Remos recounted the relationship between the World Government, the Navy, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the Four Emperors, and compared the strength between the admirals, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the Four Emperors.

"...In other words, Shanks is one of the most powerful people in the world. If we rely purely on numbers, even 100,000 people might not be able to kill him. You want me to help you defeat Shanks? I would like to, but only if I can do it."

Remos said helplessly.

His strength has indeed improved greatly now, but this does not mean that he can defeat the Four Emperors now. Even the property of the Xuanwu Fruit that makes him not afraid of water is useless in front of Shanks, because Shanks is not afraid of water either.

"But didn't you defeat Whitebeard not long ago? He just said that he is also a Yonko."

Uta remembers it clearly.

Remus smiled and shook his head.

"Whitebeard is already old. According to the evaluations of those strong men of the same era as Whitebeard that I know, the Whitebeard I faced was probably only about 70% of his strength at his peak. And this was achieved at the cost of his life. As you can see, he died, and he was even unable to save Ace the Fire Fist before he died.

As for Shanks, he is in his prime and at the peak of his strength, so he will be even more powerful than Whitebeard is now. He doesn't even need to fight hard to reach the height that Whitebeard could never reach before his death.

So you asked me to help you defeat Shanks, and my answer is yes, but not now. Right now, I can only protect myself in front of him, and it is almost impossible to defeat him. "

Hearing this, Uta's shoulders slumped.

"Is that so? I see..."

Her face was filled with frustration.

Just as Remos was about to comfort her, Uta immediately cheered up again.

"Then, can I make an appointment with you in advance? When you feel you are strong enough, help me defeat Shanks. I am willing to pay you no matter how much. I can give you all the money I have earned over the years..."

Remos looked at the excited girl in front of him in astonishment. Just when he was about to explain, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Ah! It's really Uta!"

"Where is it? Let me see too!"

"Don't push—"

A few girls came in chattering, and Remos was forced to stop talking.
