One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 871 The Monster Arrives
"Hello, you two are Uta's fathers, right?"

The next night, a man who looked like Frankenstein looked at Shanks and Buggy strangely and said.

"He's not really a father or anything like that. The most we can be considered is a foster father and guardian. This child is a survivor of a shipwreck that we found at sea."

Looking at the gaze of the person in front of him, Buggy, who didn't want to be misunderstood, hurriedly explained, and Buggy's explanation immediately made the person in front of him feel relieved.

"Okay, two foster fathers, this is it. Miss Uta is a rare musical genius. We can't even describe her as rare in a century. She is simply a prodigy that is rarely seen in a thousand years. If possible, we hope that she can stay on the island and study with us. We will train her to become the world's number one musician!"

The Frankenstein man said with some excitement.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute. This... um... what is your name?"

Shanks looked at the man in front of him who suddenly became very excited and quickly stopped him.

"Sorry, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Gordon, and I'm a professor at Elegia, the Royal Academy of Music. Uta is indeed the most talented child we have ever seen. Please consider our opinions."

Frankenstein, er no, Gordon said.

"Well, Mr. Gordon, I think you should try to convince Uta instead of us. We respect the child's choice. If she wants to study more here, we will never stop her. On the contrary, we will fully support her. Do you think this answer satisfies you?"

Shanks thought about his wording and said, Gordon looked at Baji again after hearing what Shanks said, and Buggy nodded, agreeing with Shanks.

"Okay, I understand, thank you for your support."

In Gordon's opinion, it is obviously much easier to convince a child than to convince Shanks and Buggy. Since these two people support Uta's decision, it will not be a problem as long as they convince Uta to stay. In fact, Elegia Royal Academy of Music recruits quite a few students every year. Many people even try their best to send their children in. Every time, it is the teachers and professors who carefully select students. When have they ever faced a situation like Uta? It can only be said that this is the privilege of geniuses. Teachers are scrambling for them.

"Nothing. We also hope that the child will have a better future. After all, compared to floating on the sea like us, the path of a musician is more suitable for the child."

Buggy smiled and said that they really treated Uta as their own child. Rather than becoming a pirate like them, they hoped that Uta would have a stable future. Even if he really insisted on not changing, he would have to wait until he became an adult. He was still too young now.

"Okay, okay, thank you for your understanding. Please enjoy the banquet. The banquets during the graduation season and welcome party are the best every year."

Gordon nodded and left excitedly. He was the one who discovered this good seedling. He had to keep him no matter what. He couldn't let the other old guys snatch him away. Don't think he didn't know how shameless the other old guys were at this time. They had done this kind of thing many times.

"Phew, it looks like there's no danger. I was really scared by Yamato and the others' behavior before. I thought there was really some big danger."

Shanks breathed a sigh of relief and said that when Maria came to find them, Shanks and others were scared to death. They really thought there was some big danger. But now it seems that it was just a false alarm.

"You'd better be careful. Although I also hope it's just a false alarm, who can say for sure? You know the principle of "it's better to be safe than sorry."

Buggy also breathed a sigh of relief quietly, but he was still careful and did not let his guard down too much. Along the way, they had a full understanding of Yamato's intuition. Yamato had never lost in games like rock-paper-scissors. He relied entirely on luck and intuition to rush forward, and he was always accurate.

"Indeed. Okay, let's go to the banquet hall and see how Uta is doing. I think she should be very happy. After all, it's not easy to get the recognition of the professors in the academy."

Shanks patted Buggy on the shoulder, stood up and said that as an adoptive father, he felt very proud that Uta was so recognized. He thought Buggy should feel the same way.

"Yes, but we should drink less today. Don't drink too much, otherwise we will lose face for Uta. This child works so hard. As fathers, we can't lose face for him, right?"

Buggy also stood up and said, he was not joking, he was really afraid that he would drink too much today and quarrel with Shanks again. The two of them had done this too many times, so they had to be more careful. "Don't worry, I know my limits."

Shanks has decided that for Uta's sake, he will not drink any alcohol tonight.

Just as the two were walking towards the banquet hall, they suddenly heard hurried footsteps not far away.

"Oh no! The basement has been opened! The music score of the forbidden song is missing!"

A man dressed as a security guard rushed over, shouting. When Shanks and Buggy heard what he shouted, "Forbidden Music!" This strange name, plus the legendary monster Robin had mentioned before, and Yamato's bad premonition suddenly became a string. Shanks and Buggy rushed forward at the same time, but it was too late. A wonderful singing voice came. The voice was not loud, but it seemed to be singing in their ears, which made Shanks and Buggy lose their minds for a moment. The next moment, purple-red clouds filled the sky, and a huge hole appeared in the air. Like a clown, or a devil made of various musical instruments, it poked its head out of the hole and opened its bloody mouth. Pink balls gathered in its mouth, and the next moment a strong shock wave was launched towards the island.

"Danger!"

Shanks shouted and wanted to move forward to block the attack, but the distance was too far and he had no time at all. Just as a row of buildings were about to be destroyed, suddenly a figure rushed out from the street.

"The power of the sky! Thunderous Bagua!"

With a loud shout from Yamato, he swung the Ajian in his hand, and a thicker blue-green light beam was shot out by Yamato, carrying an unparalleled thunder, which directly dispersed the monster's attack.

"Well done Yamato!"

Shanks landed on the roof and shouted excitedly.

"Watch out Shanks!"

Suddenly, Buggy shouted, and then a lance came behind Shanks. If it weren't for Buggy's timely rescue, Shanks would have been injured even if he could dodge.

"What is this?" Looking at the strange thing in front of him, Shanks said with a grim expression while holding Fenris.

"Who knows? Anyway, it's not a normal thing. This thing can't be killed. I clearly broke it apart, but it reassembled the next second. It's obviously related to that big guy."

Buggy said with a grim expression that these things were just like the users of natural fruit abilities, they were really disgusting.

"Then let's capture the leader first and kill that guy."

Shanks held the knife in his left hand and said as he stared at the big monster behind the group of monsters holding lances.

"Then I'll help you stop them." Buggy didn't say much at this moment. The two of them were as noisy as they were at other times, but they had as much tacit understanding on the battlefield.

"Please, Buggy." Shanks nodded, and at this time, Yamato also shouted.

"Jack! Button!"

"Roger that!"

"Ding!" The button was pressed, and an alarm sounded through the sky above Ghost Island.
