Arceus' Pirate Journey

Even if she was also a victim of the music score, she couldn't let it go. She needed a plausible reason to cover up the truth of what happened.

"Tezulo, you said that Wuta's talent could make her a world-famous singer, right?"

Looking at Tezulo and Stella who sent the refugees back here, Shanks seemed to have made his own decision.

Chapter 592: The Red-Haired Songstress

"Well, I said, I also believe she can do it, what are you going to do?"

"Tezuolo, even though I haven't known you for a long time, we should be considered friends."

"Are you really that naive? But if I must say... it's pretty much the same."

Taizuolo is very sensitive to the word "friend". He believed in the friends brought by money and almost got himself into a dead end. After that, he became very cautious about the word "friend".

Ever since he became the CEO of Beast Fruit, countless people wanted to be his friend, but none of them were sincere. Even within the Beast Pirates, most people were just colleagues to him.

Regardless of her identity and background, Yamato was probably his most trusted friend. She helped him without any purpose. At that time, he was still a poor man working every day.

The way he and Shanks get along these days is just drinking and chatting. If the friends he met back then were also this kind of people, then his life might be completely different.

"Since we are friends, I will leave Uta to you. I will count on you for the next few days."

"Wait, what do you mean? We signed the contract but it doesn't mean we will sever our father-daughter relationship. Although you have your own pirate group, as long as we don't become hostile, this doesn't matter at all. Boss Kaido doesn't care about this kind of thing."

"No, that's not what I mean. There has to be an explanation for this matter. When Wuta wakes up, you tell her that we committed the crime of destroying the country, and she was abandoned by us."

It was similar to what he did in the original timeline, except that he gave Uta to Gordon at that time, because Shanks in that timeline had no one to help him and was helpless in the face of the destruction brought by the King of Song. Elegia was eventually destroyed and only Gordon survived.

So he handed Uta over to Gordon and let Uta live in lies for a long time.

But it is different now. Although there are heavy casualties and the country is on the verge of destruction, a large number of citizens have survived. It is inevitable that some of these people will resent Uta, so Uta is not suitable to stay here.

Facing Taizuolo, who has access, letting Uta display his talents there may be the best option.

"....Don't you know how much this kid cares about you?"

"I know. That's why I don't want her to know what happened here. If she hates me, I can turn the page on this matter and let her continue to grow up happily. I don't mind being hated by her for the rest of my life."

"Don't say stupid things! She won't be happy like that! You men don't understand girls' hearts at all!"

Stella, who came to look for Taizulo, heard Shanks' words and immediately refuted him.

“Stella, don’t say that, I understand you very well.”

Taizulo, who was accidentally injured by Stella's map cannon, made an excuse for this, but Stella didn't care about it.

Since they are both women, and Stella is one of the actors Uta admires, they naturally talked about more things.

"This child values ​​the relationship between you and her very much. If you just leave like this, it will be like abandonment to her! Compared with the destruction of this place, that is what she cannot accept!

You think you are doing this for her own good, but have you ever considered her feelings? "

"I know that she is the child I raised, and I know her better than you do. She will only hate us, but if we let her know everything directly, she will not forgive herself.

This child is prone to getting stuck in a rut. Rather than letting her feel upset all the time, it’s better to let her hate me.”

Shanks lowered his straw hat. As Uta's adoptive father, he cared about Uta as much as anyone else, but some of his methods seemed inappropriate.

"It's useless. This matter will get out sooner or later. You can't hide it from her forever."

"At least keep it a secret from her for a few years. It would be better to wait until she is more mature and can calmly accept this matter before telling her. Your Majesty Gordon, could you please change your tone?"

Stella's words made Shanks think more carefully, and he decided to change his plan.

"what?"

"You're probably the only one who knows about Tot Musica, right?"

"Ah."

This is King Elegia's secret. If everyone knew that there was such a monster sealed under his kingdom, they would have moved to another place long ago.

"Then please tell the people that it was me, Red-Haired Shanks, who released this devil..."

"Everyone, the navy ship is approaching."

Before Shanks could finish his words, Tanaka had already brought new news. There was also a naval base near Elegia, and since such a big commotion had been caused, they would naturally come to clean up the mess.

"These guys always show up at such inopportune times. I'm serious. Uta has a great talent. It would only be a waste of it if she keeps following us who are wanted. So I'm handing her over to you for now, but don't let her become a pirate.

Tezuolo, this is nothing but a friend’s request.”

"Don't worry, I won't let her do anything weird."

"But Stella is right. I will come to pick her up when the time comes. If she can grow up without us, she will probably be able to face these realities."

Shanks finally made the decision to conceal these things temporarily, wait until she grows up and then slowly clarify the truth with her, and at the same time let Uta step onto the world stage.

After getting Taizoro's assurance, Shanks also planned to take his people away from here, but before he was about to leave, he received a Den Den Mushi handed to him by Stella.

"Leave her a message. At least you have to let her know that you haven't abandoned her."

"That's true..."

With all the members of the Red Hair Pirates, Shanks left a video message for Uta, and then left Elegia amid the gunfire. Naturally, there were more lies in this, but there was nothing that could be done about it. To perfect a lie, more lies were needed.

......

Because of Daklaiyin, Uta fell asleep longer. When she woke up again, Taizuolo was already sailing on the sea with her.

Heracross is still with Uta, but the members of the Red Hair Pirates have already left.

"Shanks? Shanks!"

After waking up, Uta instinctively looked for Shanks, but only got a Den Den Mushi.

As the projection turned on, the members of the Red Hair Pirates appeared on the screen together and waved goodbye to Uta.

[Hey, Uta, when you saw this video, we should have separated, but don't worry, we didn't abandon you.

We encountered some troubles in Elegia. Because of some very complicated things, we were temporarily burdened with some things. Only when you grow into a world-class singer can this thing be explained.

Because of this incident, we will face pursuit by the navy for a long time to come.

This pursuit will be much more intense than before. It will be too dangerous for you to follow me, so I will let you follow Taizuolo and the others for the time being.

Separation is only temporary. When you grow up, we will take you back.

Don't be sad, we are all waiting for the day when we can see you on the screen. No matter where you are, you will always be the diva of the Red Hair Pirates and my daughter. 】

Then everyone gave Uta their advice, which in summary was to take care of his health, saying that the day of reunion would not be too far away, and an explanation about the matter of Elegia.

Gordon's internal explanation was that Shanks released the devil, and the navy knew a similar situation, but following Stella's advice, Shanks simply told Uta that he was "framed."

This matter is very complicated, and she can only solve it when she has enough status. If she wants to grow better, she must separate temporarily.

He did this mainly because he was worried that if he continued to bring Uta with him, the matter would be exposed inadvertently. Uta was not suitable to face this reality now, so he made this compromise choice.

"That's it. Shanks might be in a bit of trouble right now, so you'll be joining our entertainment department temporarily. We'll send you back once he's done with his stuff."

Stella hugged Uta and comforted her. Seeing her looking a little lost, she handed her another Den Den Mushi.

"This is?"

"You can use the Den Den Mushi to contact Shanks. He just has to be separated from you temporarily because of something, but you can still keep in touch."

It is easy for flaws to appear when you are together day and night, but it doesn’t matter if it’s just a phone call. After hearing the news, Uta’s expression quickly turned from gloomy to bright, and he quickly dialed the phone.

As Shanks connected the Den Den Mushi, Uta's roar was heard from it.

"Shanks! You big idiot!

! ”

Chapter 593 Who hasn't destroyed a country these days?

"stupid stupid stupid!"

"Okay, Uta, don't be sad. We will always watch over you. The sooner you grow up, the sooner we can meet again."

There is one bad thing about Den Den Mushi, it can't hide its emotions. At this moment, tears are constantly flowing from the eyes of the Den Den Mushi in Shanks' hand, which truly reflects Uta's situation.

Thinking of what Stella said to him, he might really not understand women's thoughts.

This was the result of his farewell. If he had really left without saying goodbye, Uta, who was lying, might have been even more desperate.

"Beckman? Do you think I really don't understand women that well?"

After hanging up the phone, Shanks looked at Beckman on the side. Beckman, who seemed very serious, was actually a playboy who often mingled with women during breaks.

"Don't you know what's going on? Just like Uta said, you're a complete idiot."

Accompanied by the crew's laughter, the Redvers returned to the Windmill Village, where they still had some things to do.

At the same time, on Tezulo's boat, Heracross was holding a roll of tissues and looking at An and Uta in front of him.

Ann's age is closest to Uta's, and Stella thinks this can divert Uta's attention, so she arranges for her to comfort Uta more and let her get over this matter as soon as possible.

"Don't worry. With your talent, you will soon grow into a world-class singer. Then he will come back to pick you up."

What she needed to grow in was not status, but psychological acceptance. That was not something a child could learn. She needed enough time, and during this time, becoming a singer became her goal.

This was her own ideal, and it was also the reason why Tai Zuoluo wanted to sign her in the first place.

"Well, let me show you something fun."

As she spoke, An found the bounty order for Shanks, and then tore off the other party's photo. Under the influence of her ability, a fake Shanks soon appeared in front of Uta.

"Shanks?!"

"I am the user of the Illusion Fruit. Even though it is fake, I can help you create an illusion when you call. This way it will be no different from the real thing."

They were classmates in Elegia before, and now with the power of this fruit, their relationship is rapidly heating up. On the other hand, Darkraiyin also started his journey again, and before leaving, he also said something extra to Taizoro.

"The thing inside that girl is still there. If it comes out again, you can contact Lord Arceus and I will deal with it then."

This time the Song Demon ran fast enough. If it was a little slower, Darkrai Yin would have made it disappear forever.

But this is also a good thing for Daklaiyin, as such delicious food is rare.

But now it is too weak. Even if Uta sings Tot musica again, it will not be able to appear.

As for Darkraiyin's own desire, he hopes that the Demon King of Song will come out again after some time.

But the only way to contact him is through Arceus. Apart from Arceus, no one can find him who appears and disappears like a ghost on the sea.

As for whether it would be a bad idea to contact Arceus for such a small matter, another way of thinking about it is that he just wanted to ask someone to convey his message to his "father" while eating snacks, and such a small matter would not affect anything.

Then Darkayin disappeared in front of them out of thin air, and Tai Zuoluo was looking at the newspaper that had just been delivered to him.

"Is the navy's action...fast or slow?"

They were fast, but Tezoro and Shanks fought that damn thing in Elegia for a long time, but they didn't even see the shadow of the navy.

They are slow, but as soon as I finished dealing with my own work, they came and even sorted out and distributed the newspapers.

The newspapers were reporting on the events in Elegiia. After final statistics, the wounded and dead accounted for half of the total population of Elegiia. The country had become so devastated that it was almost destroyed.

When Gordon was the only one left, he could let go of his hatred towards Uta. To be more precise, he had no right to do so because he knew about the sealed Demon King of Song. To be more precise, most people in Elegia had heard of that story, but most of them regarded it as a legend.

In Gordon's view, Uta was also a victim, and he, who had forgotten this incident, was the murderer who caused the devil's revival. But now it is different. Now that this kind of thing has happened, the remaining citizens have lost a lot, and their emotions need an outlet.

At Shanks' request, he became the person the Elegian resented.

They hated the Demon King of Song, but at the same time, they also hated the person who released the Demon King.

In addition, in order to exaggerate the threat posed by pirates, the navy also gave Shanks the title of "Nation Destroyer".

The Navy's reports were already exaggerated, but Morgan's were even more exaggerated.

[The destroyer of Elegia, the man closest to the emperor of the sea.]

This is the title he gave to Shanks. The Kingdom of Saikai was destroyed by the Beasts, and Big Mom also destroyed kingdoms and islands because of food problems. As for Whitebeard, although he was quite nice to the people in his territory, he was also a pirate in the outside world, so naturally he had done similar things.

The ability to destroy the world is not just an exaggeration, but because the navy has seen islands destroyed by Whitebeard's ability.

"Destroying a country" has almost become synonymous with the emperor of the sea. Shanks, who has achieved half of this achievement, was naturally given this title.

Of course, something like the Demon King of Song cannot be publicized everywhere, so in the news released, Shanks and the Red Hair Pirates are the culprits.

......

"Ma'am, do you want to show this newspaper to Uta?"
