The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 366 Gordon's Awakening, Karina's Astonishment
Is someone trying to create chaos for Usopp?
The thought immediately crossed Robin's mind, and he then realized the various factions hiding on the Grand de Solo.

These people probably don't really want to help Usopp; they have some other purpose.

Robin's eyes hardened, but her expression remained unchanged as she looked at Usopp and asked, "Is someone helping you?"

help me?

Usopp was somewhat bewildered and confused by Robin's sudden question.

"Of course not, how could we let outsiders know about this?"

"I don't trust anyone on this ship. I've made several bombs myself and placed them in different locations on the Grand de Solo. That should be enough to cause chaos."

Usopp shook his head, then put his hand to his mouth and spoke softly again in a low voice.

Robin's dark blue eyes were fixed on Usopp's eyes, and she could tell that Usopp wasn't lying about this.

however!
This only strengthened Robin's resolve.

There is indeed someone helping Usopp!
Sometimes helping others isn't just about kindness; it's also about getting them to help you achieve a certain goal.

Even Usopp himself didn't realize that this was the way he was being helped, not to mention how he managed to get his hands on the bomb-making materials.

Take the issue of hiding bombs, for example. Do you really think the escort on the Grand de Solo is just for show?
Usopp himself probably doesn't even know the location of these bombs now.

Robin snapped out of her daze and looked at Usopp, who was determined to escape. "Usopp, for the sake of our time on the same ship, let me remind you, don't even think about running away."

"Even if you manage to escape by chance, you wouldn't be able to survive on this vast ocean in the new world with your abilities. Actually, life on this ship isn't bad, is it?"

After saying this.

Robin ignored Usopp's astonished expression and turned to leave, but after taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped: "I forgot to tell you, I'm a member of the Magic Eye Pirates."

Quack quack—

Quack quack—

The sound of high heels clicking on the ground gradually faded away.

Only Usopp remained, staring blankly into space.

the other side.

Miki led Uta and the other to the central area of ​​the Grand De Soro, near the huge concert venue close to the entertainment complex.

Colorful lights flashed continuously around the stage!
Loud cheers, one louder than the last, rang out continuously from the surrounding stands, creating a fantastical atmosphere against the night sky above the stage.

at this time.

Karina, hailed as the "most beautiful songstress," is performing on stage, surrounded by roaring cheers.

The three members of the group stood in the backstage stands to watch the concert.

"That sounds wonderful."

Uta gripped the railing with both hands, her eyes shining as she looked at Karina, who stood on the stage, her popularity astounding, attracting everyone's attention as if she were the center of the world.

Miki and Gordon stood behind Uta, but their attention was not on the concert.

"Are you really leaving?" Miki asked calmly.

Gordon looked at Uta, who was completely captivated by the stage below, a barely perceptible tenderness flashing across his face, and gently nodded to Yuki.

"Whether it's the Island of Music or Uta, I've done everything I should and could do."

"The only one I was a little worried about was Uta, but now it seems that she should have her own stage and a whole new world."

Gordon spoke slowly, looking intently at Miki: "I believe she will become the best musician in the world, even better than the diva on the stage below you."

Hear this.

Miki chuckled softly, "I believe that too."

"However, I originally thought your desire for revenge would be even stronger."

Before resolving the "Totemjika" issue, Mogi had spoken with Gordon, so he was able to sense Gordon's desire for revenge against Shanks.

to be exact.

If it weren't for Yuki's unexpected intervention, the hatred for the destruction of the entire Music Island, Eligia, would ultimately have fallen on Uta.

In the original storyline, Uta's crazy plan was actually the result of Gordon's tacit approval and lack of intervention.

No matter how you argue, the destruction of the music island of Eligia was caused by the Red-Haired Pirates bringing Uta to this country.

Now, Gordon seemed to have suddenly let go of all his hatred, which surprised Yimu.

Seeing the other person's expressionless face, a sense of understanding arose in Mumu's heart: "It seems that you have already made some kind of preparation."

“This has nothing to do with you, and it has nothing to do with Uta.” Gordon was taken aback at first, then stared at Yumu seriously and spoke.

This is between him and that man!
Because the concert venue was extremely noisy, the hushed conversation between Mumu and Gordon went unheard by Uta, who was perched on the railing in front of them.

Just then, Bucky came running from backstage, his forehead covered in sweat.

"captain."

Bucky approached Mumu, speaking respectfully while glancing at Gordon and Uta with some confusion.

He was having a great time at the entertainment center when the magic eye cross he was wearing suddenly reacted, and Momo's voice rang in his mind, telling him to come here.

Bucky thought something had happened and he had angered the captain, but now it seemed it wasn't a bad thing.

"This song is almost over, call Karina up."

Mogi didn't offer any explanation, but quietly gave instructions to Buggy.

"No problem, Captain."

Bucky quickly patted his chest, turned around, and left.

It didn't take a while.

On the stage below, Karina finished her performance and let another singer take over, disappearing from the audience.

"This singing style and technique is Miss Karina's!"

Uta snapped out of her reverie after the song stopped, then turned to face Mumu and Gordon, her face full of excitement, and began to speak.

"Oh?"

"Do you know Karina?"

Miki was somewhat surprised.

"Of course, Karina is a great singer. When I was on the island, I received the signal through a video Den Den Mushi, so I heard Miss Karina sing."

"And there were also praises for her in the newspapers."

"I never expected to see her here, Mumu, you're amazing." Uta's face was flushed, and she was very excited.

Mu raised an eyebrow. He knew that Karina was quite well-known on the Grand de Solo, but he didn't expect her to be this famous.

This thief underestimated her.

"You can see her in a little while," Yu Mu chuckled.

"real!"

Uta spoke with anticipation. Not long after, Karina arrived backstage. When she saw Yuki's figure, her heart tightened, and she quickly walked over.

"Lord Miki, I didn't expect you to come here."

"I kept you waiting."

Karina wore a black, tight-fitting strapless top, revealing her snow-white shoulders and long legs. Especially under the lights, she exuded a white glow, full of allure.

Moki waved his hand dismissively, then gestured to Uta, who was quite excited to see Karina: "This is Uta. She wants to sing a song on the stage below, so we'll have to trouble Miss Karina."

"what!"

Upon hearing this, Uta couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, her face full of astonishment, looking at Yumu with some bewilderment.

"As a musician, I can't miss this kind of stage."

Miki smiled and spoke to Uta.

Uta unconsciously pinched her white and red ponytail that was hanging down. She had been singing alone on the music island, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous in front of the magnificent stage and the large audience below.

But more than anything, it's a sense of eager anticipation.

Uta glanced at Gordon to the side and met his slight nod, which calmed her down.

Karina had noticed the somewhat cute-looking girl next to Miki long ago, and upon hearing Miki's words, several thoughts flashed through her mind.

Since Miki took control of the Grand Desolo, she has hardly appeared in public. Even she, a songstress who was highly regarded by the Golden Emperor, had only seen Miki once.

His presence here shows how much Miki values ​​this girl named Uta.

The concert setlist had already been finalized, and changing it now would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the audience. However, with the ruler of this ship speaking up, it was clearly not a problem.

"No problem, leave the rest to me."

Karina suppressed her thoughts and smiled without hesitation. At the same time, she reached out her delicate, fair hand and took the hand of the somewhat nervous Uta beside her, speaking with a friendly expression:
"Don't be nervous. Just tell me what you need to do. I can handle the music style and lighting, Uta."

"Don't be fooled by the large number of people; you don't actually need to pay attention to any of them."

In just a few words, Karina calmed Uta down, and the two headed toward the backstage preparation room.

Watching Uta's departing figure, Gordon looked away and said, "Could you please take me back to Music Island?"

"Don't we need to say goodbye to Uta?" Miki asked.

Gordon shook his head.

Swish!
A flash of silver magical light, and Gordon vanished as spatial magic enveloped him.

"Captain, what's going on?" Bucky, who had been waiting on the side and was dressed in a flashy outfit, asked curiously.

"From now on, Uta will be in charge of the amusement park and concerts; she's a new member."

Without turning back, Yi Mutou spoke up, "Also, it's time for our Demon Eye Pirates to make some moves."

Ding-dong!
Ding-dong!
Bucky's metal accessories jingled, instantly lifting his spirits.

Although the life he is living now is something he could never have imagined before, and he even counts money until his hands cramp every day, for some reason, Bucky always feels that something is missing.

"Captain, what are we going to do?"

Bucky excitedly rubbed his hands together.

"How about holding a selection for the Ten Generals?" An amused expression appeared on Yumu's face.

Ten Yuan General?
Bucky was a little confused; he seemed to have heard the name from Kabaji and Mochi before.

The cross with the demonic eye he wore was different from the crosses worn by Marianne, Kabaji, and Mochi; their crosses had specific numbers on them.

"Is it being held on the Grand De Solo?" Bucky blurted out instinctively.

He never understood what his captain was doing, but he could sense that the captain wanted to cause trouble.

"Do not."

Mogi shook his head slightly and smiled, "In the Sabaody Archipelago."

Bucky's lipstick-covered lips twitched slightly.

The captain was indeed planning something, but that's how pirates should be.

“That would be very interesting, Captain.” Bucky grinned and chuckled.

While Miki and Buggy were talking.

Boos and shouts of discontent came from the concert stands outside.

Uta, microphone in hand, stood in the center of the stage. Beams of light shone down on her, revealing her adorable image.

however.

Seeing this completely unfamiliar singer, the noise from the audience grew even louder, clearly indicating that they were not buying it.

Standing on such a magnificent stage for the first time, and facing such a situation, Uta was naturally extremely nervous, but she didn't want to disappoint Gordon or Miki.

Take a deep breath.

Uta closed her eyes, blocking out the noise coming from the audience, and held the microphone to her rosy lips.

next moment!
A soft, cheerful song began.

At first, there was some chaos in the audience, and some staff members even had to calm things down. But before long, as Uta's singing spread, the entire audience quieted down.

All of a sudden!

Only Utana's passionate and melodious voice remained in the concert hall.

Watching Uta, who suddenly became the center of the world on the concert stage.

Yumu nodded slightly: "A future 'world-class diva,' she certainly belongs to this stage more than anyone else."

After a song ends.

Amidst cheers and applause that resounded throughout the venue, Uta, looking both tired and excited, bowed deeply to the audience before leaving the stage.

After handing the microphone to Karina, who was already waiting in the back to prevent any stage mishaps, Uta's steps suddenly became lighter as she hurried towards Mumu.

Karina's slender fingers held the microphone and gently turned it, her eyes filled with amazement as she watched Uta's receding figure.

Just one song!

Karina could sense that her title of "most popular songstress" would probably fall to someone else in the future.

"You're truly impressive, Lord Miki."

"To think they could find such a songstress, it seems that trying to deal with the new king of the Grand Desolo in the same way they dealt with the Golden Emperor won't work."

Karina raised her fair wrist, pinched her chin, and muttered to herself with a slight headache.

"Golden Emperor" Gild was already troublesome enough, but now this one is even more difficult to deal with, making it increasingly difficult for me to plan anything related to the Grand de Solo.

but.

Opportunities will always come.

Karina recalled the information she had recently gathered, a charming yet dangerous smile spreading across her face, her eyes flickering.
