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

"No one can make a difference!!"

Well, this bunch of brainless idiots still haven't grasped the reality of the situation.

"Alright, pirates~"

Seeing this, Uta blinked and then held up one finger.

"If you can give up this idea and stop becoming bad pirates, I can forgive you."

She seemed to be offering a final plea.

"Come with me and let's create this wonderful world!"

These words brought tears to the eyes of the fans in the audience. Our Princess Uta is truly kind and innocent!

However, none of them noticed that Uta's eyes changed slightly when he was talking about a wonderful world.

"With my songs, everyone can live together peacefully and happily!!"

She raised her arms high, truly expressing her innermost thoughts.

This was also the first time she had used the crisis involving pirates to express her feelings and plans in advance.

However, after she said those words...

"a ha ha ha!!"

The remaining pirates almost all clutched their stomachs and burst into wild laughter.

"There is no such thing as peace in this world!!"

The vice-captain of the jellyfish pirate crew was practically laughing until tears streamed down his face.

"How about I help this kid who's spouting nonsense to tear off his mask?!"

That unrestrained laughter caused a subtle change in the expression on Uta's face.

Is there no such thing as peace...?

"Hey Hey hey!!"

Luffy, who had been listening the whole time, was quite annoyed by what he heard after seeing these unruly guys and immediately wanted to step forward.

However, Uta reached out and stopped him once again, and sighed softly.

"Everyone, didn't you come here to enjoy my music?!"

She decided to ask one last question.

"Don't be silly, we're pirates!!"

The jellyfish-themed first mate was about to rush forward, shouting, "We have many more important things to do than you do!!"

As he spoke, he brandished the blade, his fierce and menacing expression made no attempt to conceal it.

His classic pirate-style remarks and actions naturally caused a stir among the fans in the audience.

"That's so unfair! We finally get to come here for a concert!!"

"They actually covered up the harm done to us, and even Uta's feelings!!!"

The crowd was in a frenzy, and many spectators wanted to rush forward and rescue their Princess Uta from her predicament!

However~~~

"Pity……"

Before the fans could react, Uta herself lowered her brows slightly, "Well then, let me create a song for you all!!"

As she finished speaking, a bright glow, seemingly brought about by her singing, began to emanate from her body!

This radiant power is a direct result of the activation of the Song-Song Fruit!

Clearly, Uta intends to resolve this dispute in her own way!

Just as her radiance began to flow, and she prepared to sing, she slowly closed her eyes...

"Jingle Bell!!"

A crisp bell rang out, causing everyone on the stage to pause in surprise.

At the same time, a strange fluctuation suddenly came from the audience seats and instantly enveloped the entire venue.

"It's so rare to get a concert and have a break, can't you just stop for a bit?"

Link walked slowly towards them from one side of the stands, smiling as he said:

"This fighting and killing will really disrupt the atmosphere of the concert."

"(Nord's) Why don't we sit down together, have a good chat, drink some tea, and enjoy the music together..."

In his hand, he was holding a small, round, pink ball.

There is a red button in the very center of the ball.

At the top of this small ball is a clover, which resembles a symbol of peace.

That red button had clearly been pressed by Link.

Then, the clover swayed gently in mid-air.

And as it swayed, strange fluctuations emanated from it!

~~~~~~~~~

[A huge thank you again to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch'! He gave me so many donations, even at 1 AM this morning. I'm truly grateful for his support!!!]

896 [Peace Antenna]!! The Barto Club underlings swear to defend Brother Link to the death!!

Item: [Peace Antenna].

Description: Pressing the button above will generate a peace wave that will stop any conflict or battle. Creatures covered by the peace wave will cease all fighting.

After Link took out this item and successfully released the [Peace Wave].

Instantly, all the pirates on the stage who had been swaggering and looking menacing, eager to attack Uta, dropped their weapons.

"I'm so sorry!!"

The group of people all lay down on the ground, facing Uta, in the standard taxi dismount posture, with extremely sincere apologies and honest, simple smiles on their faces.

Well, that honest and simple look on their faces only makes them seem more repulsive.

This sudden change in emotion startled everyone in the audience.

"Pirates, all of you..."

They were completely baffled, looking at the person who kept rubbing his hands together, bowing repeatedly, with a genuinely apologetic smile on his face.

They were all somewhat confused, and had a feeling...

This world is changing way too fast!

Of course, some people have a completely different feeling about this.

"Oh oh oh!!!"

In a corner of the concert hall, a group of people suddenly erupted in deafening cheers.

"Is that Link's prop?!"

"They can even easily manipulate pirates in the New World with bounties over 100 million!!"

"And it doesn't look like they used much strength at all!!"

"They truly are the leaders we've always longed for, the ones who traveled thousands of miles to this new world to follow!!"

A certain wicked devil with a green rooster-like comb and a bull-nose ring was there, excitedly crying his eyes out.

His many followers, who were also very emotional, couldn't hold back their tears, which streamed down their faces.

Those were tears of extreme excitement flowing from the sight of the idol they had longed for and worshipped day and night!

"I'm talking about you..."

Cavendish, the pirate prince who was nearby, looked at the group of guys with a speechless expression.

"Can't you tone it down a bit?!"

Especially when they saw their snot, tears, and drool running down their faces, they couldn't help but roll their eyes and look at them with disgust, keeping a little distance from them.

"We're here just to see the concert."

Cavendish leaned back, looking down at the scene on the stage in front of him:

"Of course, it also includes the possibility of running into the Straw Hat Pirates, whom you've been longing to see, here."

"Perfect timing, the Straw Hat Pirates are right here. Our cooperation and your goals are about to be achieved."

"You should be happy."

Bartolomeo, Gambia, and the others nodded repeatedly, their faces streaked with tears: "Yes, yes, we're so happy!!"

Cavendish: "...How come they don't look happy at all?"

But before he could remain speechless for long, he heard this group of dimwitted fools start discussing things again:

"Boss, shall we go find Link and Luffy right now?!"

"Idiot, didn't you see that Luffy and the others are helping Uta deal with the trouble on that stage? They clearly know each other well, they're acquaintances."

"To abruptly interrupt their reunion as old friends would be very distasteful!"

"Yes, Boss Barto is right!!"

A group of club underlings nodded in agreement: "And right now, Link and his crew are stealing the spotlight."

"We can steal the limelight from others, even from someone like Rotten Vegetable Head, but we absolutely cannot steal the limelight from Brother Link and the others!!"

"Not only should we not rob them, but we should also protect them and prevent someone like Rotten Cabbage Head from coming out and stealing the limelight from Brother Link and the others!!"

After saying this, the group of underlings immediately stopped crying.

Then everyone, their eyes filled with fierce glints and wariness, looked at Cavendish standing to the side.

Cavendish: "???"

We were allies before, we reached an agreement, and we came here together, okay?!

What exactly do you mean by those faces you're wearing right now?!

Cavendish's brow twitched, and he instinctively placed his hand on the famous sword, Durandal, at his waist.

I really had an urge to stab all of these guys to death.

However, if we're talking about the Straw Hat Pirates as they've put so much thought into it...

If I had a follower like that, I'd be devastated!

Of course, now is not the time to recruit followers.

Despite his Observation Haki, which had already allowed him to perceive the entire situation clearly.

Link arrived on stage immediately.

He was still holding that clover-shaped peace prop, swaying in the wind.

Yes, that's exactly what Uta wanted: peace and stability.

"I'm so sorry, we were really wrong!!"

The entire Jellyfish Pirates crew knelt down, apologizing to Uta, Luffy, and the others.

Clearly, this kidnapping incident has now been averted.

"You've come too, Link."

Seeing Link come over in person, Luffy grinned and then rubbed his nose with his fingers.

He immediately abandoned the idea of ​​knocking those guys away.

The other Straw Hat Pirates members also stopped fighting at the appropriate time.

After Link took out his gadget, there was basically no doubt about the outcome of this incident.

Even Uta, who was about to sing but was suddenly interrupted and stood there stunned, gradually came to her senses.

"Luffy's crewmate?!"
