After Carina tapped Haku's wallet with her accidentally exposed body.

Carina then turned to Uta and said, "But Uta, I will definitely go to your concert, not only to support you, but also to witness your dream come true."

Hearing Carina say this, Haku knew that Uta had not revealed her plans for 'New Genesis' to her.

Uta smiled and nodded!

She was already looking forward to the New World she had created!

Haku looked at the girl's condition and sighed inwardly.

It's important to know that the Sleepless Mushroom can cause significant Injuries to the human brain.

Unfortunately, in terms of physical strength, Uta has not shown any outstanding abilities other than being a genius and agile dancer. Her current actions are entirely due to her Devil Fruit powers.

In fact, when Haku's soul was being pulled away by Uta, he could have acted immediately!

But Haku wouldn't dare do that! Because he knew that if he did, he might kill Uta.

Furthermore, Uta doesn't have much stamina, as she usually falls asleep after singing only a few songs.

In reality, she compensates for this weakness by continuously consuming Sleepless Mushroom in order to sustain herself for hours of high-intensity concerts!

Haku quickly left Uta's room!

Upon returning to his office, he immediately attracted the attention of Kalifa and Zephyr.

It should be noted that not long ago, those in the New Marines who had fainted or been manipulated along the way had already recovered completely.

As Haku's secretary, Kalifa certainly wouldn't ask Haku questions casually.

However, Zephyr didn't have so many concerns.

He went straight to the point and asked, "Kid, those two weren't the result of your romantic entanglements, were they?"

Haku shook her head helplessly and said, "Teacher, what are you saying? Do I look like that kind of person?"

"Go ask someone outside. I don't need to explain how things are between you and Boa Hancock, right?"

"Oh! I forgot, you seem to have Commodore Gion, I don't need to explain that, right?" Zephyr said to Haku with a smile.

Haku raised her hands in surrender, and he said with a smile, "Teacher, given that girl's status, if I were to try and seduce her, Red-Haired would probably never forgive me!"

"Haku, are you sure Uta is connected to Red-Haired? This is no small matter." Zephyr's tone became serious, his gaze fixed on Haku as if trying to penetrate his soul and confirm the truth of every word.

It's worth noting that when Uta arrived at the New Marines Headquarters, she gained entry by using the identity of Haku's friend.

In addition, there is no information or bounty record on Uta, and her outstanding abilities pose a threat to Zephyr and the others.

Zephyr did not mention this matter again!

Only then did Haku speak seriously, saying, "Teacher, you know I'm now on the side of the Revolutionary Army."

Zephyr showed no other surprise.

"Actually, I knew you'd choose this path, Haku." Zephyr nodded slowly, his eyes revealing a complex emotion, a mixture of understanding and helplessness. "You have your own beliefs and pursuits, and I respect your decision. But you must understand that this path is not smooth; it may even be full of thorns."

Haku's gaze was firm. "I understand, teacher. But I believe that everything I've done is for greater justice and change. The Revolutionary Army's goals align with my ideals, and I'm willing to dedicate myself to this cause."

Zephyr just watched Haku like that, knowing that when the Navy disappointed him, he knew Haku would eventually become a member of the Revolutionary Army.

Kalifa listened quietly, her face revealing little emotion, but her eyes shone with trust and support for Haku. She knew that once Haku made a decision, she would go all out, no matter how difficult the road ahead.

"So, what are your plans regarding Uta?" Zephyr changed the subject, bringing the conversation back to Uta.

Haku said, "The one who tied the knot must untie it; her family is the one who needs to resolve this issue!"

Haku took a Den Den Mushi) out of her pocket, ready to dial Red-Haired's number.

After a series of beeps, Red-Haired quickly Den Den Mushi.

"Isn't this Haku? What's up, kid? You finally decided to see me this time, huh?" Shanks said menacingly.

Haku could tell the other person was quite resentful!

He said, "Your precious daughter Uta is in my hands! You'd better watch your mouth!"

"What! Kid, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. You actually attacked Uta!!!" Shanks' voice changed slightly, clearly somewhat provoked.

Haku quickly interrupted Red-Haired's anger, her tone slightly teasing yet serious. "Shanks, don't get agitated. I just wanted to say that Uta needs our help right now, including yours."

"Uta? What happened to her?" The Red-Haired's voice instantly became anxious, and even the anger in his tone subsided by more than half.

A series of noisy sounds came from the Den Den Mushi, clearly indicating that Red-Haired's commotion had attracted quite a few people.

"She's safe and sound right now, but there are some things I think we need to sit down and talk about," Haku explained.

"What happened to Uta?!" Shanks asked seriously.

Haku explained, "Her 'New Genesis' project... and her reliance on Sleepless Mushroom to maintain high-intensity activity... you know, taking Sleepless Mushroom isn't a long-term solution. The most important thing is that Ancient Demon's occasional influence on Uta! I think you haven't forgotten the Ancient Demon that destroyed Elegea!"

"Moreover, her abilities are too great, and coupled with what happened back then, she has developed psychological problems! If she is not guided properly, it could lead to unpredictable consequences."

On the other end of the phone, the Red-Haired was silent for a moment, seemingly processing Haku's words. "I understand, Haku. Tell me your location, I'll be right there."

Haku shook her head and said, "I already have a solution to this! Let's meet at the concert venue in Uta!"

"A concert!" Clearly, Red-Haired Shanks had been keeping track of news about Uta.

Now, after hearing Haku's request to attend Uta's concert, he seemed to remember something and said seriously:

"Kid! You know that if something happens at the concert, Uta's life will be ruined, you know that?!"

Haku said nonchalantly, "I know! But do you think Uta wouldn't have done this even without me?"
