After clearing his surroundings, he then used Den Den Mushi to dial a number.

Each Den Den Mushi can emit different Thought Waves depending on the number, allowing it to accurately contact the corresponding target.

Of course, the range of communication varies depending on the capabilities of each Den Den Mushi.

Some Den Den Mushi can transmit Thought Waves between several islands, while weaker ones can only communicate within the island itself.

Ain is different.

As the king of Den Den Mushi, he can accept any Thought Waves, and his response range even covers the entire world.

A moment later, the Thought Waves connection was established.

"Ain, it's me."

"Kuranos... you've been missing for so long, your master has been trying to find you."

"I'm sorry, there's been a bit of a problem on my end."

Kuranos spoke calmly, without giving a lengthy account of his ordeal.

"It's good that you're alright; your master will be happy too."

"There is something important I need to report to the Lord."

Next, Kuranos quickly recounted what Elegia had discovered.

After listening, Ain replied:

"Master has never been to that island you mentioned. Those are not our people. Wait a moment, I will report to Master immediately."

[Master, that's the situation.]

When Dimon learned of Kuranos's news, he was at an amusement Paradise in the Sabaody Archipelago.

He rode the bubble Ferris wheel alone, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the island from above.

"The City of Music, Elegia, that's a nice place."

Speaking of Elegia, one thinks of the songstress named Uta. As Devil Fruit User, Uta genuinely possesses the power to "destroy the world."

Her abilities, combined with Ain's global broadcasting, allow her voice to reach countless ears.

Once you hear the singing, you can be pulled into a spiritual world called "The World of Song" by Uta's ability.

In the theatrical version, Uta did indeed do something similar.

She captivated 70% of the world's population with a single concert, a truly miraculous feat.

[Master, Kuranos mentioned 'demon,' which might be wild...]

"The Demon King of Songs, Tot Musica, is just an unfortunate fellow sealed within a musical score."

Dimon didn't take it seriously.

The origin of this demon is not explained in the original work.

The only known information is that in ancient times, this Demon King of Songs wreaked havoc, and the ancients were unable to completely kill this musical demon.

He manifests through song as a medium and does not possess a true "physical entity," therefore he cannot be killed.

This is similar to the situation with the Seven Deadly Sins, where demons cannot be killed, only sealed away.

Thus, the ancient Devil Fruit User used his own singing voice as a shackle to seal the Demon King of Songs within a musical score.

"The Demon King of Songs" is both the name of this demon and the title of this musical score.

It is worth noting that, unlike Ain and Kuranos, the Demon King of Songs is not a manifestation of the Sing-Sing Fruit.

The two should not be treated as equals.

However, Dimon felt that this demon had a close connection with the Sing-Sing Fruit.

Thinking of this, Dimon immediately gave the order:

"Let Sigma handle it. Capture that demon. Oh, and that girl named Uta, don't hurt her. I'll deal with her myself."

Uta's abilities are still too overpowered. We might as well invite her to join the Seven Deadly Sins and become a peripheral member like Nami.

Besides that, Uta sings quite well, and can also be used as a music player when you have free time.

[Yes!]

On a raft amidst thick fog.

Uta's eyelids trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

As a girl with a very easygoing personality, she was able to get a good night's sleep even under these circumstances.

Stretching lazily, he said without turning his head:

"Mr. Devil, where are we now? Wait, Mr. Devil?"

She turned around and froze in shock.

Where are they?

Such a big person?

I hope he didn't fall into the sea!

Uta hurriedly went to the stern of the raft, knelt down, and brought his head close to the sea surface.

"Mr. Devil! Are you alright? What happened yesterday wasn't just my imagination, was it?"

"No, no, even if it's a fantasy, I couldn't possibly build such a huge raft myself. Mr. Devil is real!"

"He fell into the sea! Waaah..."

Uta's face was filled with sorrow.

It's been seven years. I finally found someone I could talk to, but they're gone in the time it takes to sleep.

What are you Kikoku about?

Suddenly, that familiar voice came from above.

Uta looked up blankly, and upon seeing what was happening, he was completely stunned.

"Dragon... dragon?"

In the pitch-black fog, a gigantic dragon head emerged, and the demon Kuranos, whom they had encountered yesterday, stood atop the head.

Uta rubbed his eyes.

Am I still dreaming, and haven't woken up yet?

She pinched her cheek and cried out in pain.

Kuranos was speechless.

Sigma observed the human with curiosity and spoke in human language:

"Are you coming up here yourself, or should I drag you up? Human."

"Whoa! The dragon spoke!"

Uta stood up in surprise, looking up at Sigma with sparkling eyes:

"Are you Mr. Devil's accomplice? Hmm, Seven Deadly Sins?"

"I am Lust, Sigma, sent by my Lord to take you back."

Sigma reached out a claw, grabbed the tiny Uta, and flung her onto his head.

Uta cried out in surprise, and when she came to her senses, she was already standing on the dragon's head.

"Wow, how interesting! A pink dragon, and its scales are pink too."

"Shut up."

Kuranos stood to the side, finding the human quite noisy. "Quiet down, sit still."

"Uh-huh."

Uta nodded repeatedly, then asked with great curiosity, "Master, who is your master? Where is he? Is he incredibly powerful?"

Kuranos was at his wits' end with her, and sighed in exasperation.

Sigma flicked his dragon tail, soared into the air, and said:

"Our Lord is the King of Demons, the Ruler of the Abyss, the Holy Creator, the God of Gods, the Light of Light, the Beginning of All Life, the End of All Things, and..."

Uta covered her ears with her hands, feeling dizzy from listening.

"So, who exactly is your Lord? What's his name?"

"..."

Sigma fell silent.

"Human, you talk too much!"

Sigma snorted and decided he didn't want to talk to her anymore.

Chapter 212 "The Demon King Summoning Song"

Finding Elegia took some effort.

Fortunately, Sigma was capable of flight, and the raft was not fast, so it did not travel too far in a day.

Around noon, we finally found the island.

Returning to the island where she had lived for many years, Uta was dejected and muttered to herself:

"Hey, why are you back again?"

Kuranos ignored her, his tone grave. "Did you feel it?"

"What do you feel?" Uta blinked, tilting her head to follow Kuranos's gaze. "That used to be the king's castle, but it's abandoned now."

Sigma narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"There is indeed the aura of a 'kind,' though very faint. According to the master, this wild one... is in a sealed state."

If the members of the Seven Deadly Sins are likened to stars in the night sky, then the aura released by this wild demon is roughly equivalent to that of a candle.

Kuranos was very cautious. "It's best not to be careless. Let's land first. They might have noticed us too."

Sigma immediately began to descend.

So he wasn't talking to me... Uta felt like she was being ostracized, and puffed out her cheeks unhappily.

The three landed in the ruins of the city on the island. Sigma shrunk to a little over a meter long and turned to look at Uta:

"Humans, what's inside that castle up there?"

"It's just an abandoned castle. You seem to be looking for something."

"A musical score, a score that seals away a demon."

Upon hearing this, Uta's expression changed drastically; her sweet and lively face turned gloomy, and some unpleasant memories surfaced in her mind.

Kuranos and Sigma exchanged a glance.

"You seem to know something?"

Kuranos chuckled softly, surprised that this cheerful and straightforward human girl would show such an expression.

Uta trembled slightly, her fists clenching uncontrollably beneath her long sleeves.

"How did you know there were musical scores in the castle? They were used to seal away demons... I understand! You want to break the seal; you are demons too."

She instinctively took a half step back, suddenly becoming tense.

Sigma rolled his eyes. "Kuranos, you scared her. Don't forget your master's orders: you're not allowed to hurt her."

"It's because this human is too noisy, and besides, I didn't do anything."
