The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

A wave of discussion instantly erupted from the surrounding audience seats...

Moreover, although there was none of the same fervor and shared hatred as when they were fighting Luffy earlier, their expressions of disgust were even stronger.

It could even be said that they deeply abhorred it.

It seems that the name Shanks carries a very bad memory in the place called Alicia.

"Shanks..."

The reporters who heard the same news all trembled, their faces twitching, and they frantically flipped open their Den Den Mushi again.

"Headquarters!! Headquarters!!"

"There's big news again, it's definitely headline news!!"

"This concerns the existence of two of the Four Emperors!!!"

"Shocking! Huge revelation! A songstress with the most powerful backing in history!!"

"So this is what the songstress Uta's identity and background are all about!!"

His friend is one of the Four Emperors, the Straw Hat Boy; his father is one of the Four Emperors, the Red-Haired Shanks…

With interpersonal relationships like that... you might as well be a pop star!

It made many people green with envy and jealousy.

Damn it, 3.4, their musical talent and singing voice are so outstanding, yet their background is so powerful...

How come all the good things have fallen on her alone?!

The songstress Uta is practically blessed by the heavens! She effortlessly possesses everything others desire!

After realizing this, many people gradually developed similar thoughts and had many feelings.

However, within the crowd, there were also those who held completely different thoughts.

894 A crushing defeat! Is this the overlord of the seas, the strongest pirate crew in the world?!

"The daughter of one of the Four Emperors, Shanks, and a friend of Straw Hat Luffy... hehehehe~"

The many sinister pirates hiding in the corner all revealed rather lewd smiles.

"This is actually more interesting."

Outside the concert stage, on that tall building covered in vines, the man with the scar on his head couldn't help but sigh after being told this fact.

Indeed, the day had finally come when the ocean would reveal itself.

"Oops~"

Uta held her forehead with one hand, and the two hair ties at the back of her head fell down.

Luffy's personality really hasn't changed at all...

boom! !

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out above the concert stage, interrupting Uta's thoughts and silencing the entire audience.

"Hey hey hey..."

Amidst a series of eerie laughs, a group of guys dressed in distinctive costumes, clearly belonging to one of the 20 pirate crews, stepped onto the stage.

Each person held a gun or a knife, and wore a rather malicious smile.

"Who would have thought that Shanks, one of the Emperors of the Sea, would have a daughter?!"

"If that's true, you are [Red-Haired Shanks'] greatest weakness!!"

"If we hand you over to other powerful pirates, we'll definitely get a hefty reward!!"

A bunch of brainless idiots are spouting their wildest fantasies about this.

It seems that they have already seen that bright future with promising financial prospects.

Well, they never considered that doing so would be tantamount to offending two of the Four Emperors.

Moreover, now that Douglas Bullet, the Emperor of the Sea, has been captured, and Edward Newgate, the Whitebeard, and the Straw Hat Pirates have forged a deep friendship and a bond that transcends life and death because of the Marineford War.

Even if they kidnapped Uta, which other powerful pirate force could they hand her over to?

Unbeknownst to many, this vast ocean is now basically ruled by powerful corporations... no, the Straw Hat Pirates!!

This group of guys doesn't consider the consequences at all; all they think about is money, and they just charge ahead without thinking!

So, what a pity~

The masked man, who appeared to be a high-ranking officer within a pirate crew, suddenly swung the blade in his hand forward.

"This concert has now come to an end!!"

They clearly have designs on Uta.

"what?"

Luffy blinked and then tilted his head.

These guys... seem to be saying some weird things!

"Hey, hey, hey, you bunch of guys, what do you think you're going to do to Miss Uta?!"

Upon seeing this from the stands, Sanji immediately became enraged and charged towards the scene using Moonwalk.

Brooke chuckled and followed closely behind: "We can't let these bastards ruin such a beautiful stage!!"

"This is where things are going to get interesting!"

Zoro revealed a wild smile and placed his hand on the scabbard at his waist.

"You guys..."

They realized that no one was listening to what they were saying, and instead, a group of people had emerged who wanted to oppose them.

The group's leader immediately darkened his face: "Don't underestimate the Jellyfish Pirates!!!"

boom! !

A pink shockwave was immediately emitted from the boss's hand.

However, before the light wave had traveled far, Zoro raised his hand and unleashed a slash.

Whoosh! !

Without any resistance, as if it were a shoddy construction project or scraps of paper, it was cleaved into powder by Zoro's slash.

And then, undeterred, it continued its rapid ascent, right under the now terrified gaze of the leader.

boom! !

The immense force sent him flying!

"Jellyfish Fist!!"

The tall, muscular, strange-looking man next to him, wearing a jellyfish-themed hat, yelled and threw a series of punches, each aimed at Sanji's face.

But they were all easily dodged, and then, they were rewarded with a blow.

"Neck meat - SHOOT!!"

boom! !

He kicked the man squarely in the face, shattering most of his teeth, and sent him flying backward.

"Yohohohoho, Song of Plunder - Blizzard Slash!!"

Brook weaved through the remaining soldiers, and then, before they could even react, completely unaware and clueless about what was happening...

Click! !

The Soul-Slaying Sword in his hand instantly closed, and at the same time...

Buling!!

Snowflakes fluttered down, the north wind howled, and layers of ice crystals were splashed up!

Thump thump!!

Large numbers of henchmen instantly collapsed to the ground, their mouths agape, with icy breath emanating from their tongues, seemingly from the depths of hell.

Their entire bodies were frozen solid by a layer of white snow crystals, completely sealing off most of their bodies.

With just two slashes and one kick, they easily dismantled a pirate crew that had entered the New World and arrived here.

907 "The Straw Hat Pirates..."

Many spectators and reporters in the stands couldn't help but swallow hard as they watched this scene.

"Wow, that's amazing!!"

"Is this the terrifying power of the Four Emperors?!"

"The Jellyfish Pirates, their captain has a bounty of over 100 million, and with the officers and crew, their total bounty exceeds 300 million!!"

"Just like that, it was resolved so easily, without even the captain and first mate having to get involved..."

"Don't forget, they're the strongest pirate crew on this sea!!"

The audience and fans in the stands gradually came to their senses from their excitement.

They then realized that the man standing below with Uta was the one wearing a straw hat.

But now, he is one of the most powerful and legendary rulers of the high seas!

"This looks really interesting!"

On stage, Luffy saw this scene and grinned, eager to try and participate.

But at this very moment~

895 Link's gadgets!! Peace?! Can't things just stop for a bit?

"Wait a minute, Luffy!!"

Uta stretched out his arm and stopped Luffy.

"There are others here, please pause everything!!"

She still had that cheerful smile on her face: "Thank you for protecting me, but please don't fight anymore!"

Uta's face still seemed to retain that innocent, naive look as he smiled and said:

"Since you're all my fans, you should get along well and enjoy the concert!!"

He was completely on the side of considering the fans' feelings, which moved the fans in the surrounding audience to tears.

Their Princess Uta is just so kind, waaaaah!!

"But……"

Usopp put down the two pistols he had drawn up, ready to fire. "Princess Uta, these people are trying to kidnap you, do you know that?!"

"Moreover, not to mention, this group of people are not going to listen to what you have to say!"

"For pirates, if they want something, they'll take all sorts of measures, including but not limited to robbery and kidnapping."

Robin, standing at the edge of the stage, also revealed the true nature of pirates.

Of course, the Straw Hat Pirates are completely different from ordinary pirates.

"That's right!!"

Beside the captain of the Jellyfish Pirates, who had been casually slashed away by Zoro, lay on the ground, the first mate, with sunken eyes and a skull-like appearance, also shouted:

"As pirates, we won't give up on our goals so easily!!"

"that is!!"

A man wearing a black mask and with a long, pointed nose was also speaking in a sinister tone beside him:

"Uta, we are determined to win!!"
