Pirate: I am a logistics person, what the hell is the emperor

Chapter 332: The Merry is in need of a musician
In the hammock, Sanji woke up and sat up, subconsciously glancing at the wall clock.

"Is it eight o'clock already? I missed dinner time."

"No, why am I on the boat?"

Sanji was stunned. He shook his head and looked around. Luffy and the others were sleeping in the hammocks in all directions.

Isn't he watching UTA's concert?
Walking out of the dormitory, Sanji glanced around the deck.

Zoro, who was sitting on the lawn leaning against the mast, glanced at him.

Behind him, Reiner just walked out of the girls' dormitory on the second floor.

"What happened? No! What are you doing in a girl's bedroom?!"

Sanji's eyes burned with jealousy.

Reiner glanced at him speechlessly.

"Don't question my character with your dirty thoughts."

"Your character?"

Facing Sanji's disdain, Reiner said sinisterly:

"Please think of me as being a little dirtier."

"I knew it! You bastard, let me make sure they are safe!"

Sanji shouted angrily and jumped up to the second floor of the dormitory, rushing into the girls' dormitory with a lustful look on his face.

"Your dog is here."

Reiner looked at him with disdain, put away his joking thoughts, reached out and grabbed Sanji by the collar and pulled him back.

"Wait a minute, who is that sleeping with Brynn?"

Sanji spoke quickly, already catching a glimpse of the girl's figure on Pudding's bed.

"Uta? Princess Uta?!"

"Well, it's a long story."

Reiner nodded, closed the door, jumped down, and walked across the lawn to the deck.

"Go make your meal first and wake them up later."

The moonlight pushed aside the hazy dark clouds and cast silver light.

In the quiet night, the boat silently docks at the shore, and the waves gently accompany people to sleep.

While Sanji was cooking, the others slowly woke up.

Only Uta, who had overused his abilities, was still in a coma.

"That's probably what happened."

"It's not good to leave Uta there alone, so I brought her back first."

In the restaurant, Reiner explained the whole story to the people sitting around him.

Their ship was docked behind the island, and the navy on the front island was already evacuating civilians from the scene.

After listening to this, everyone had different expressions and felt heavy-hearted.

Luffy stared without saying anything.

Usopp clenched his palms, somewhat unbelievingly, his voice low and somewhat unconfident.

"Would my dad and his friends really do such a thing?"

The Red Hair Pirates destroyed this country, stole the treasure, and abandoned Uta here.
The whole story makes it sound like the Red Hair Pirates are complete assholes.

He found it hard to accept this because that was his father whom he had always admired.

"Luffy, do you think there might be any misunderstanding? Don't you also admire Shanks?"

Usopp's throat rolled and he stared at Luffy, trying to find the answer from his eyes.

"Maybe there's some misunderstanding, I don't know, but I believe in Shanks."

Luffy raised his head slightly, his voice was low but his tone was firm.

"What's more important now is Uta. What should we do when she wakes up."

"."

The restaurant fell silent again.

Boom—boom—boom!

At this moment there was a sudden noise.

Reiner and the others looked back and saw that the restaurant door was not closed and a tall and thin figure was standing at the door.

The man was wearing a dark green coat, had a long slit on his bald head, and was wearing small sunglasses.

"You are the Straw Hats, right? My name is Gordon, and I was the king of Elegia when it was still known as the capital of music."

Under the puzzled gazes of several people, Gordon walked in on his own and explained in a deep voice:

"I was responsible for teaching Uta music knowledge during the years she was on the island. I was also a survivor who witnessed the Elegia incident."

"Today, a tragedy almost occurred. I have an unshirkable responsibility."

Gordon came to the table, bowed to the people and said:

"Thanks to you, the child didn't have to bear such a heavy sin."

"You just mentioned the incident that happened back then, uncle, do you know anything?"

Luffy quickly stood up and spoke.

Gordon straightened up, nodded and said slowly:
"The news reports are false. This country was not destroyed by the Red Hair Pirates back then."

"I knew it! Dad wouldn't do such a thing, right Luffy!"

Hearing this, Usopp jumped up excitedly.

"Yeah." Luffy also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"What happened then? Why did Shanks and the others leave Uta here?"

Nami couldn't help but speak out.

After learning about Uta's experience from Luffy and Reiner respectively, she felt very sorry for what happened to Uta.

"They are afraid that the truth will be too heavy for Uta."

"That's why I lied and said that all this was their doing."

Gordon slowly told the truth of what happened that year.

"If Uta knew, he would definitely put all the blame on himself."

Eleven years ago.

In the town where the raging fire mercilessly burned everything to ashes, the red-haired man said this to him with a smile.

"As a father, how can I let my daughter bear such a sin?"

"This is all our own stupid stuff. Just tell her so when she wakes up, Gordon."

"Do you really want to leave her here? She will definitely hate you in the future. Is this really a good idea?"

Young Gordon questioned the red-haired man, he just couldn't understand.

However, the other party just smiled with relief.

“Whether the future will be good or not, we cannot give an answer now.”

"But we can't teach her to be a musician if she follows a bunch of pirates. Uta is in your hands."

Done.

The pirates boarded the ship and left.

When Uta awoke, they stood at the stern, raising their glasses next to the mountain of treasure.

It's like celebrating a harvest, but also like saying goodbye to someone who is taking a new step.

The pirate ship is going farther and farther away.

The only sound on the shore was Uta's crying.

"Now, perhaps Uta can bear the truth, but I still dare not tell her."

Gordon fell to his knees with a thud, his hands clasped on the floor, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

"Over the years, I have been passionate about teaching Uta music knowledge, wishing to pass on everything I have learned throughout my life to her, but I have neglected the growth of Uta's character."

"I was afraid that Uta would go out to sea as a pirate after learning the truth. It was all because of my selfishness. I thought I could rely on Uta to restore the glory of Elegia."

"I didn't expect this situation would happen today. It's all my fault."

Gordon buried his head deep in the floor, hot tears of regret wet his face.

"."

"Gordon, right? Thank you. Thanks to your guidance over the years, Uta has finally realized her dream of becoming a musician."

Luffy squatted down and lifted his hand, smiling faintly: "Uta will find her own way, let's believe in her together."

"Straw Hat Boy."

Gordon raised his head, looked at Luffy with tearful eyes, and pursed his lips tightly.

The Merry left the coast and set sail again.

Before saying goodbye, Brin copied Gordon's memory of that year and implanted it into Uta who was sleeping.

That night, the girl dreamed of going back to eleven years ago, back to the port where the fire was blazing.

From another perspective, watch the Red Hair Pirates fighting the devil with all their might.

Looking at the Red Hair Pirates who were loaded with treasures, everyone was in a heavy mood and no one laughed out loud.

She seemed to have dreamed of the Windmill Village.

After the Red Hair Pirates returned, a little boy ran onto the ship and looked for her everywhere.

Luffy is crying and it's so embarrassing.

Uta smiled slightly in her sleep, and the tear marks at the corners of her eyes and the sadness on the wet pillow faded a little.

"Ahhhhhhh~~, this is really scary."

The concert scene in Maejima.

Several figures surrounded the two people, pointing their black guns at one of the men wearing a coat of justice. Kizaru raised his hands, pretending to be scared on his wretched face.

"That little girl has been taken away by the Straw Hat Pirates. Can you please take these dangerous things away?"

Staring at the tip of the knife that was shining coldly against his throat, Kizaru looked at the man in front of him along the blade with a playful look in his eyes.

".Everyone from the Red Hair Pirates."

Hearing this, the gloom in the man's eyes eased a little.

A few strands of dark red hair half covered Shanks' face, and he was wearing floral shorts and slippers, giving him a wild and unruly temperament.

"It seems we are a step too late, Boss. Luffy got there first."

Lakilu opened his mouth and tore off the piece of boned meat in his hand, laughing:
"What do you think? Do you want to catch up? There is a place reserved for Uta as a musician on the ship."

"Luffy!"

"forget it."

锔.

Shanks took back the knife, slowly sheathed it, and smiled solemnly:
"Young people should stay with young people. It would be a bit tactless for us adults to go over and ask for help."

"Hahaha, that sounds like something you would say."

Jesus Bu also put down the gun that was pointed at Kizaru and chuckled:
"He actually pulled your daughter and my son on board. Why didn't I realize that stupid boy had this ability before?"

"Ah, I'm really looking forward to them more and more."

Shanks curled the corners of his mouth slightly, turned around and waved his hand, and the black cloak fluttered behind him.

"Let's go, everyone. Let's set sail. As long as we are on the sea, we will meet again one day."

“It’s so casual.”

Ben Beckman, with a cigarette between his teeth, put down his gun, turned around and followed slowly.

The others also put away their guns, and followed the two men away with a smile.

"Speaking of Luffy and the others, Hongo, what have the other newcomers done recently?"

"You're quite interested in the new generation. I'm sure you'll be interested in the ones that have been quite active recently."

Hongo smiled and responded to Shanks:

"Captain Kidd, Death Surgeon Law and Gangster Kidd formed an alliance and landed in Wano Country, seemingly preparing to attack Kaido."

"Kid, I have some impression of that guy. I think Beckman broke one of his arms before."

Shanks said with a smile.

"That kid was too arrogant. I couldn't help but let him suffer a little."

Beckman spoke calmly, with smoke curling around the corners of his mouth, and commented again:
"You are a bit like you when you were young, reckless and arrogant."

"Hey, hey, hey, I was never like what you said before."

"You are so ignorant, Boss."

"Hahaha!"

Several people laughed at Shanks' rebuttal.

Hongxiang retracted his smile and said:
"By the way, the Blackbeard Pirates have appeared near Elbaf. They have been hunting people with special abilities everywhere. I wonder if they have targeted Loki."

"Elbaf."

Shanks thought about it for a moment, and then he made up his mind.

"That's the hometown of our old friends Dongli and Broki. We can't let anyone mess around. Let's go to Elbaf."

"Oh, are we going to fight?"

"It's getting interesting guys."

"Then let's have a party to celebrate."

"Are you going to get drunk again, Shanks?"

Looking at the backs of the people leaving, Kizaru slowly put down his hands and put them back into his trouser pockets.

"The kings of the sea came one after another, and they all scared me into a cold sweat."

Looking back at his subordinates who were lying on the ground due to being frightened by Red Hair's domineering aura, Kizaru couldn't help but hold his forehead.

"I just stood up and was knocked down again. Even some of the lieutenant generals couldn't hold on. It's really a headache."

"Luckily, Mr. Zefa is not here, otherwise I would be scolded again when I get back."

"Today's marines need to hone their willpower."

Kizaru murmured silently and sighed softly with a complicated expression.

The next morning, the warm golden sun shone on the sea, and the waves sparkled like broken gold.

Aboard the Merry.

Uta, who had just woken up, was still a little sleepy, with her hair sticking to her pale and somewhat weak face, making her look a little fragile.

He rubbed his eyes and looked around the unfamiliar room, then got off the bed and walked to the door.

There were several figures on the lawn, and Luffy was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the boat fishing.

Noticing her movement, Luffy looked back.

"Wake up, Uta."

"Luffy?"

Uta looked at the others, Chopper, Franky, and Nami, in confusion.
They were all familiar faces I had met yesterday.

"Good morning Uta."

"How are you, Uta?"

“There is breakfast in the restaurant.”

Several people greeted him with concern.

"Well, hello, I'll go over and eat later."

Uta responded with a smile and looked at Luffy.

"Is this on your ship?"

Uta already had the answer in his mind as he slowly walked down the lawn holding the guardrail and came to Luffy's side.

"Well, this is the Merry, not bad, isn't it?"

Luffy said with a smile.

Uta turned and leaned towards the guardrail, raised her head, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the breeze caressing her face.

"Well, it's not bad, but it's not as big as Shanks and his crew's ship."

"."

Veins bulged on the backs of several people's hands, and Luffy even rolled his eyes and was so angry that his teeth were chattering.

This little girl is quite good at talking.

Franky suppressed his anger.

“But it’s quite heartwarming.”

Uta smiled and spoke again.

After hearing this, the few people relaxed a little.

You can curse people, but you can’t curse Merry. You can’t curse Uta. Even if Uta’s father comes, you can’t curse him.

Luffy regained his serious expression and asked:
"Uta, what are your plans next?"

"Huh? Of course I'm with you guys."

Uta pinched Luffy's cheeks with both hands and pulled them, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

"You've already carried me onto the boat and yet you're asking me this kind of question. Are you going to be like that bastard Shanks?"

"Eh!"

Chopper's eyes suddenly lit up, "Uta wants to join us?!"

"awesome!"

"welcome!"

Several people cheered enthusiastically, and the noise also attracted the rest of the people to come to the deck.

Uta looked at Luffy with a proud look:

"Hehe, see how popular I am."

"This is it~~"

Luffy scratched his head, looking a little troubled.

Seeing him like this, Reiner and others couldn't help but frown.

Luffy said a little embarrassedly: "Uta is a musician, but we already have Brook on the ship."

"Is this what you care about?!" ×N
Several people suddenly shouted angrily.

Sanji, with a cigarette in his mouth, held up the tied-up Brook and walked to the edge of the ship, ready to sink him into the sea.

"Hey, wait, are you feeding me to the fish Sanji? I don't have any meat left."

Brooke still had a smile on her face.

“Yohoho——”

Gudong!

"Guluulu~~"

There was a splash of water, and Sanji turned around and said calmly:
"We are still short of a musician on board, so Miss Uta can come on board."

Luffy: “.”

Uta: “.”

Something is wrong, I seem to have got on the wrong boat.
