" Uta!"
Luffy shouted at Uta while still in the air.
"Um?!"
Uta slowly raised her head and immediately saw Luffy in mid-air, a hint of joy showing in her eyes.
Luffy?!
How did you get here?
Luffy on the ground, looked at Uta, and said with a smile, "I saw the news about your performance in the newspaper a few days ago, and I was wondering if this Uta was you!"
"I can't believe it really is you! You've fulfilled your childhood dream and become a superstar singer!"
"Of course! After all, my talent speaks for itself; it would be strange if I didn't become a pop diva!"
Uta's lips curled up slightly, his tone tinged with pride.
"By the way, compared to me, a pop diva, you're the real celebrity now!"
" Straw Hat Boy Luffy Four Emperors! With a bounty of 4.56 billion Beli, there are probably very few people in the world who don't know you!"
"Hahaha... Keep it low-key! He's just one of the Four Emperors, nothing to be proud of!"
Luffy waved his hand and said with a smile, but the expression on his face didn't seem like he had nothing to be proud of.
"So... why did you become a pirate?"
At this moment, Uta spoke up quietly.
This sudden remark left Luffy, who was laughing heartily, a little bewildered. He looked at her curiously and asked:
"Didn't I say every day when I was little that I wanted to become the Pirate King?"
"Besides, I don't think being a pirate is so bad, it's so free!"
"Really? But aren't pirates all vicious and ruthless?"
"They burned, killed, looted, and committed every imaginable atrocity!"
Uta spoke again, just looking at Luffy.
"Hey! Uta, you can't say that. There are many pirates who aren't like that!"
"For example, our pirate crew wouldn't do that, and then there's Shanks and the others. As Shanks ' daughter, you spent so much time on their ship, you should know very well what kind of people they are!"
"Yes! I know them best..."
Uta murmured softly, his voice barely audible.
"Huh?! Uta, what did you say?"
"No, nothing! By the way, is your entire pirate crew here to listen to my concert?"
"Is Xia Chen the Sovereign here? I greatly admire him and have been wanting to meet him for a long time!"
Uta smiled and asked Luffy, her tone tinged with anticipation.
"Yes! I'm on that ship over there!"
Luffy his head and pointed to the Thousand Sunny not far away.
"Then... could you introduce me to him?"
"No problem!"
After saying that, Luffy looked around and finally fixed his gaze on a pillar above his head. He reached out and touched the pillar, then stretched out his other hand toward Uta.
"Come on! I'll take you there!"
"No need! I can go by myself!"
Uta waved her hand, and with a casual flick of her wrist, a musical note appeared before her eyes.
Uta jumped onto the musical note, and then the note started moving, flying towards the direction of the Thousand Sunny.
Then he turned Luffy to Luffy.
" Luffy, I'm heading over now! Take your time!"
"Um?"
For a moment, Luffy was stunned, but after he came to his senses, he immediately shouted:
" Uta! It's been so long since we had a race! Let's see who gets to the Thousand Sunny faster this time!"
"You've lost to me so many times before, so don't lose to me again this time, or I'll feel embarrassed for you!"
Uta:???
" Luffy, how dare you say I lose more often? You're the one who loses to me every single time!"
"It's just that you're lying and refusing to admit it!"
"Nonsense, I always won!"
Luffy quickly retorted.
Uta ignored him completely and sped straight toward the Thousand Sunny.
"Hey! Uta! You're cheating again!"
Luffy was furious and hurriedly chased after Uta.
--
Meanwhile, aboard the Thousand Sunny.
"So it was actually Uta's power spiraling out of control that led to Elegia's destruction?"
Sanji stroked his chin and looked at Xia Chen, asking a question.
"Right!"
Xia Chen nodded.
"Is that Demon King of Song really that strong?"
Nami then spoke up.
"I don't know about that either!"
Xia Chen shook his head. His understanding of the Demon King of Song Tot Musica was limited to what he saw on screen, so he naturally didn't know how strong he was in reality.
"I'm faster than you! Uta, you're going to lose!"
Just then, Luffy's shout came from not far away, drawing everyone's attention.
Luffy and Uta were flying towards them, but Luffy was clearly much faster than Uta.
"Really? Luffy, you're still the same as when you were a kid, always so excited!"
Uta chuckled softly, then slowly raised his hand.
The next moment, a musical note appeared in the direction Luffy was flying, directly blocking his path.
"Bang!"
A dull thud was heard, Luffy, caught off guard, crashed directly into the musical note.
"Hahaha... Luffy, I'm off now!"
Uta flew past Luffy and waved to him.
"Damn it, Uta! You cheated again..."
Luffy muffled sound came from beneath him, and then he plummeted downwards.
Looking down at the seawater, a determined glint flashed in Luffy's eyes as he gritted his teeth and said:
" Uta, you forced me to do this!"
Gear Fourth!
Luffy transformed into Gear Fourth in mid-air, his legs propelling him towards the Thousand Sunny at breakneck speed, much like a jet engine.
In the blink of an eye, they were beside Uta.
Luffy smiled and made a gesture towards Uta, saying:
"Bye-Bye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy accelerated again, instantly overtaking Uta.
Uta, however, showed a surprised expression on his face.
"What's wrong with Luffy like this?"
After thinking for a while, she suddenly realized something, and a look of anxiety appeared on her face. She hurriedly looked ahead.
Luffy was now only about 100 meters away from the Thousand Sunny.
"We're doomed! We're going to lose!"
Uta hurriedly shouted, and then, with a thought, another note appeared in front of Luffy.
However, having already learned his lesson once, Luffy naturally wouldn't fall for the same trick again. He easily dodged the note by shifting his body slightly, then turned to Uta and taunted:
" Uta! The same trick won't work on me..."
"Bang!"
Before Luffy could finish speaking, he bumped into another musical note.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Uta instantly overtook Luffy, leaving behind only one sentence.
"Don't even mention twice, you'll fall into the same trap countless times!"
Uta smiled slightly. With Luffy's IQ, he thought he could beat her?
Are you kidding me!
When she was young, she used the same move to defeat Luffy countless times.
At that moment, Uta arrived on the Thousand Sunny and immediately spotted a young man not far away. Her eyes lit up, and she walked over to him...
