One Piece: Starting as a Marine Lieutenant, I Slack Off and Get Stronger

Ain and Hancock nodded seriously: "Don't worry!"

"Raven, please!"

"Gah!"

After seeing Raven leave with the two women, Karl finally felt free of any more worries.

Women will only slow down my sword-drawing speed...

"Furthermore, I have another request. I hope that all pirates, marines, and so on will not disturb this concert. My fans are seeking happiness and joy from me!"

"If you dare to do anything excessive, the consequences will be dire! Because!"

"I am Uta, the songstress who will usher in a new era! I will bring happiness to everyone through my songs!!!"

Karl's lips twitched. "Obito, is that you?"

However, one thing Karl had to admit was that she did indeed have that ability.

Putting aside the audience at the venue, countless people around the world are watching her live stream. If Uta truly wants to achieve her dream...

"Sigh... One look and it's clear, a delusional brat. Oh right, and Totemjika too, if that thing were to awaken again..."

In reality, at Naval Headquarters.

"Don't worry, Lieutenant General Ain, everything will proceed according to plan. Reinforcements will arrive soon."

"What? Karl is still in the mental world? Isn't that ridiculous? Uta can..."

"Okay, then!"

After hanging up the phone, Kuzan rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

"These kinds of brats are really troublesome..."

Isregia.

"Hey, Mr. Carl, where are Hancock and Ain?" Nami walked over with Robin by her arm, originally intending to talk to Hancock and Ain, but they disappeared in a short while.

Carl smiled and said, "They had something to do and left first. After all, Hancock is pregnant and can't take any more stress."

Robin's gaze sharpened: "What a mess, Karl, are you saying something unexpected might happen here?"

"Sigh, more or less." Karl sighed, glancing at Uta who was still singing and dancing.

"Who is it? Is it Totemjika?"

Karl shook his head and gestured towards Uta's direction with his lip: "No, it's her."

Robin covered her mouth: "Uta, does this mean the Navy is going to attack her?"

Upon hearing this, Nami immediately panicked and grabbed Karl's arm: "Mr. Karl, Uta isn't a bad person, why is the Navy arresting her?"

“I didn’t say she was a bad person, and the Navy is here to stop her crazy idea.”

If it can't be stopped...

"what do you mean?"

Carl patted the recliner next to him, gesturing for Robin to sit down and talk.

"Did you hear what Miss Uta said earlier?"

Robin nodded: "Of course, although it's a bit... unrealistic, it doesn't seem like there's anything worth noting for an idol, right?"

What if she's serious?

Robin's eyes widened, and she exchanged a glance with Nami beside her, her mind involuntarily recalling Uta's words about "dreams."

A concert that never ends, a happy and joyful world...

Wow~ That's terrifying to think about! No wonder Karl took it so seriously, especially considering the legends of Aregia...

Robin's gaze turned serious: "Karl, what are you going to do? Uta is Luffy's friend. If the Navy is going to take action against Uta, he will definitely stop you. We don't want to be your enemy."

Nami nodded frantically, "Yes, yes, Mr. Karl."

"There's no point in saying all this now. Don't tell Luffy yet. Just wait and see. Just think of me as being paranoid!"

"Now that you've said that, how can we pretend nothing happened?" Robin complained helplessly.

"Robin Chicken~ Nami Chicken~ Come and try the special Aregia Island dishes I made for you myself!"

They're calling you from over there!

Robin and Nami exchanged a glance: "You should come too!"

"No, we have different statuses. Just let me have some peace and quiet."

Chapter 343 Luffy, Stop Being a Pirate

Robin brushed a strand of black hair behind her ear and said with a smile, "Come on over! You're on vacation right now, aren't you?"

“Yes, Mr. Karl, we have so many questions for you! Come on!” Nami’s tone was a little coquettish.

Unable to refuse Sheng Qiang's offer, Karl slowly sat up from the recliner: "Then I shall accept your offer."

Gulu gulu gulu~

Various ingredients were stewed together in an iron pot, and the aroma they emitted was exceptionally tempting. As Sanji prepared the ingredients, he exclaimed, "This really is a chef's paradise!"

"Yes! Uta can give you whatever you want."

"By the way, what ability does she use? It seems so versatile!" Chopper licked a marshmallow in each hand with great enjoyment.

At this moment, Karl slowly said, "A Paramecia-type Sing-Sing Fruit user, and at a high level of development. I suspect that Uta has already awakened."

The Straw Hat crew was immediately taken aback: "What? Uta is that strong?"

Nami asked curiously, "Yeah, Luffy, aren't you friends with Uta? She's so amazing, how come I've never heard you mention her?"

While eating, Luffy muttered, "As for why she's so strong, I don't know. I do know that she's loved singing since she was little."

"Yohohoho~ Maybe, Miss Uta was chosen by the god of music and given the all-powerful ability of the Song-Song Fruit."

As soon as Brook finished speaking, Uta descended from the sky, greeting everyone energetically: "Luffy, everyone, are you having fun?"

Upon hearing Uta's voice, Usopp immediately stood at attention as if receiving a command: "Yes, Princess Uta!"

Sanji smiled faintly, "The ingredients here are inexhaustible and come in a wide variety. I think ALLBLUE is no better than this!"

But when he caught a glimpse of Karl and Robin whispering sweet nothings in the corner of his eye, Sanji's face fell. Was it not enough to have two women on his left and right, he also had to take advantage of Robin?

This is intolerable! Humph! If it weren't for the fact that Karl and Robin are old acquaintances, he would definitely make Karl suffer. It's not that he lacks confidence in defeating him.

After all, he had witnessed Karl's abilities firsthand on Ghost Island, which could not be called a miracle.

"I'm so happy!" Chopper spun around excitedly.

Uta glanced at Karl and then said, "That's good. You're all Luffy's friends. I hope you like it here."

After saying that, Uta immediately turned around, leaned close to Luffy, and whispered, "Hey, are there only a few of them? That can't be right, can it? That hat..."

"I'm not lying to you, these are all my crewmates, uh, except for that one." Luffy pointed to Karl standing to the side.

Uta turned to look at Karl, who smiled slightly at her: "Hello, Uta."

"Hmm~ You look familiar, haven't I seen you somewhere before?"

Carl chuckled: "Perhaps! Before you became famous, I was somewhat well-known myself!"

It seems that after putting on sunglasses, not many people could recognize him at a glance, so Uta didn't pay much attention to Karl.

"Hey Luffy, how about we have another match? Like before?"

Luffy said nonchalantly, "No need. With my current strength, you can't beat me!"

"What?! That's quite the boast. Don't forget I have a 182-game winning streak, have you forgotten?"

"Nonsense! It's clearly me who's maintaining a 182-game winning streak!!!"

"Enough talk, let's have another match! How about... a chicken dinner?"

"Compete!"

Uta set up the platform, conjured up two plates of chicken legs, and invited Luffy to have a match.

Luffy was practically laughing his head off. Comparing himself to him in terms of eating was like lighting a lamp in a latrine—it was suicidal!

"Come on! You're definitely going to lose!" "Hmph, that's not necessarily true!"

Everyone couldn't help but smile at this sight, it seems that Luffy and Uta did have a very good relationship in the past.

In the end, Uta used a little trick to win the match, which infuriated Luffy.

"You're cheating!"

"I don't care, I won anyway, and since I won..." Uta leaned closer to Luffy and whispered, "Where's Shanks?"

"do not know."

"Then what's with that straw hat on your head?"

"It was entrusted to me for safekeeping."

Ok?
