On the island of Drum, in Dolton's house, Uta ends her song. Vivi, Usopp and Dolton applaud.
DOLTON : It was incredible.
Uta greets : "Thank you all."
USOPP : It was I who taught her everything.
Uta has a sadistic smile : "Really ? So why don't you show your talents as a singer, little brother ?"
Usopp pretends to cough : "It would have been with pleasure but with this cold, my throat irritated."
Vivi takes out the logbook of her pocket : "And then there is more important to do."
UTA : Oh no, why did you take this here ?
VIVI : I knew it would have time while waiting for Nami to be healed. Come on, I want to know for Mr. Bushido's fight against Mihawk.
DOLTON : Against Mihawk ? One of the Warlord ?
USOPP : We may not talk about it in front of you, it won't interest you.
DOLTON : On the contrary, I would surely have a better opinion of you if I know one of your adventures.
Uta sighs: "Very well. We had just returned to sea on our new boat when we met Johnny and Yosaku, former friends of Zoro. They told the direction of a restaurant ship where we could recruit a cook but a Navy ship spotted our Jolly Roger."
Usopp crosses his arms : "I knew we should have taken my 1st drawing."
UTA : Do not forget, Usopp. It's Luffy, the captain.
USOPP : I know.
UTA : The Navy attacked us with a cannonball. Zoro tried to cut it but 2 of his swords were destroyed by the impact. Luffy however managed to repel it by throwing it towards the roof of the restaurant. I followed Luffy when he was brought in front the owner.

24 days earlier, Luffy kneels : "I'm really sorry."
He sees Zeff's wooden leg : "Did I tear your leg ?"
Zeff stamps his face with his intact foot : "Idiot ! I have this wooden leg for years."
LUFFY : So everything is fine if it's not me.
ZEFF : But you still injured me. The restaurant repair invoices as well as the costs for the doctor will be expensive.
UTA : A second, it's true that Luffy sent you the cannonball but at the start, it came from a navy ship so if you want to pay someone, contact the guy who comes from enter.
ZEFF : I find you very insolent for a kid. If the Navy shot you, it's because you're pirates, right ?
Uta crosses her arms : "Yeah but..."
ZEFF : Then the discussion is over.
LUFFY : Just for information, I have no money to give you. Nami kept everything.
ZEFF : It's really a shame. You will have to work here to reimburse me.
LUFFY : No problem.
ZEFF : For a year.
LUFFY : Yeah, I'm going to work for a year !
ZEFF : Then you can leave.
LUFFY : Wait. A year ? I can only stay a week.
ZEFF : It is not enough.
LUFFY : Very good, 2 weeks maximum.
ZEFF : You ruined my restaurant and hurt the chef. Do you think you can reimburse me in just 2 weeks ?
LUFFY : Of course.
Zeff is preparing to trample Luffy but Uta sets off in front of him : "Get out of my way, young girl."
Uta smiles : "No way. If you want to hit him, knock me first."
Zeff rests his foot on the ground : "Cheeky girl."
LUFFY : Listen, I waited 10 long years to become a pirate. I can't stay here for a month. So it will be 2 weeks or nothing.
ZEFF : If you are really so in a hurry, I have an alternative solution to offer you. Instead of a year, I cut your leg.
LUFFY : Her father has already lost an arm. No way that I lose a leg.
UTA : Listen, Mr...
ZEFF : Zeff.
UTA : Mr Zeff, if you let me put entertainment in your restaurant, I can assure you that you will have so many customers that the debt will be reimbursed in less than 2 weeks. Otherwise, you cut his leg.
Zeff shakes her hand : "Deal. You start for the meal tonight."
UTA : One last thing. Luffy is very clumsy and eats a lot. I do not recommend letting him enter the kitchen.
ZEFF : Understood. He will take client orders.
LUFFY : Don't forget, Zeff. 2 weeks.
ZEFF : Call me boss. Sanji, stop it right away ! Are you still fighting in my restaurant, you ungrateful ?
SANJI : Shut up, old asshole !
ZEFF : What ? Who do you think you are talking about ? Do you want to destroy my restaurant ?
He tramples his face with his wooden leg : "Insolent !"
Then do the same with Fullbody : "You too ! Get out of my restaurant !"
Sanji gets up and quarrel with Patty.
ZEFF : If you want to fight, do it outside !
LUFFY : This restaurant is really agitated.
UTA : I'm going to have trouble making myself heard without a good microphone.
Gyn armed with a gun enter the room.
ZEFF : This new customer has an interest in not causing more problems at my restaurant.
Luffy smiles : "A pirate ?"
Gyn sits at a table : "I don't care what it is...give me eat. It's a restaurant, right ?"
Patty takes his command : "And what do you want to eat ?"
GYN : Are you deaf ? Anything that is edible.
PATTY : And how do you plan to pay ?
Gyn threatens him with the gun : "Like that."
PATTY: If you don't have any money ...
He knocks him out with his big fists.
ZEFF : And another chair to replace.
UTA : Does it happen often ?
ZEFF : Too often.
LUFFY : What a strength.
PATTY : If you don't have any money, you don't eat.
He throws Gyn outside who regains consciousness : "I would take revenge..."
Luffy and Uta look at him.
LUFFY : You starve, right ?
GYN : Not at all...I am not hungry at all.
Sanji leaves a plate of food in front of him : "Eat."
GYN : Get it from here ! I refuse your charity !
SANJI : For me, any one who starve is a customer.
GYN : I have nothing to pay...
SANJI : The ocean can be cruel. On this sea, not having food or water is horrible. I understand those who starve better than anyone. Die with dignity, if you want but taste it at least to honor my dish. "
Gyn ends up eating the whole plate : "It's delicious! I thought I was going to die ! I never thought I would eat something so good in my whole life !"
SANJI : Glad you like it.
LUFFY : Great, I found my cook !
UTA : But he works in this restaurant.
LUFFY : Like us, Uta.
He looks at Sanji : "Hey, the cook ! You don't want to become my teammate ? You will be the cook on my pirate boat."
Sanji has eyes only for Uta and his visible eye turns into a heart : "Here I am in Paradise, I have the most magnificent angel in front of me."
Uta blushes, embarrassed.
LUFFY : Hey, the cook ! You listen to me ?
Sanji resumes his senses : "Are you a pirate ? Is that why you attacked this restaurant ?"
LUFFY : In fact, it was an accident. I pushed back a cannonball.
SANJI : In any case, avoids damaging this restaurant more. The boss was once a Captain Pirate.
LUFFY : Huh ? This old man was a pirate ?
SANJI : For this old asshole, this restaurant is worth more than any treasure but we often attract pirates.
LUFFY : It really looks like we're not going to be bored during these 2 weeks, Uta.
SANJI : Uta. What a wonderful first name. When I hear it, I want to sing you a serenade.
LUFFY : Do you know how to sing too ? Maybe you could make a duet with her ? But first, join my crew.
SANJI : Wait, Uta. Are you part of his crew ?
UTA : Yes, I'm the cook for the moment but it would make me too happy that you replace me so that I can focus on my songs.
SANJI : It would have been with pleasure but I can't.
LUFFY : Why ?
SANJI : For personal reasons.
LUFFY : This is not a good reason so join my crew.
SANJI : Uta is very cute but I can't.
Uta blushes again.
LUFFY : What has Uta have to do with that ?
SANJI : I think you are too young to understand.
LUFFY : I have 2 years less than you.
SANJI : At 17, you're not mature enough, straw hat asshole !
LUFFY : Don't insult my hat ! It belonged to Uta's father !
GYN : Sorry to interrupt you but...
SANJI/LUFFY : What ?
GYN : I'm part of Don Krieg's crew. My name is Gin. So you two are also pirates ? What is your goal ?
UTA : I want to create a new era where everyone will be free to hear me sing.
LUFFY : I'm looking for One Piece. We're going to the Grand Line.
GYN : If you're looking for a professional cook, I imagine you have a small crew.
Luffy points to Sanji : "With him, we are 6."
SANJI : Why are you counting me too ?
GYN : You seem like a good person, so take my advice. Don't go on the Grand Line. You are still young. No need to rush. Grand Line is only a small part of the world's oceans. If you want to be pirates, there are plenty of other less intimidating places.
UTA : You say that because you've been on the Grand Line ?
GYN : Not at all !
SANJI : Are you really one of Don Krieg's men ? I didn't know he hired cowards.
LUFFY : Don Krieg ?
Gyn gets on a small boat : "See you next time."
LUFFY : We're still planning on going to the Grand Line.
GYN : Do what you want. If you want to die, it's not my problem but I preferred to warn you.
He looks at Sanji : "Thank you very much for saving my life. This rice was really delicious. Can I come back ?"
SANJI : Whenever you want.
Zeff looks at them from a distance : "Little shit, are you getting to know the new recruits ?"
SANJI : Go ahead, Gyn.
GYN : I'm sorry. You're gonna be in trouble for letting me eat for free.
SANJI : No, the old geezer and I understand each other.
Gyn sets sail.
SANJI : Don't get caught again, Gyn.
GYN : Thank you, Sanji.
ZEFF : Sanji, get back to work right now.
Uta is nervous : "Come on, you can do it. You sang at Makino's bar every night. Ok, the room is bigger and in my opinion, there will be more spectators but it will do."
She goes up on the stage, looking at the room which is starting to fill up : "Good evening everyone, I welcome you all to this magnificent restaurant. My name is Uta and I will perform a few songs for you to entertain you. Do not hesitate tell your friends about it, I'm here for 2 weeks."
She sees Zoro trying to smother Luffy with a glass of water : "That'll teach you to throw your boogers at me !"
Nami and Usopp laugh.
At a nearby table, Sanji is serving a customer : "His teammates are loud."
He sees Nami and joins her with a flower : "Oh, sweet ocean, thank you for arranging this meeting on this day ! Oh, my love, you can make fun of me. As long as I am with you, it doesn't matter that I am a pirate or a demon !"
LUFFY : Then join my crew.
SANJI : But what a misfortune ! A big obstacle is in front of us !
Zeff joins them : "Is it me the obstacle, Sanji ?"
SANJI : Shit, old geezer.
ZEFF : Since you are in love with this girl, will therefore join her.
Sanji turns to him, annoyed.
ZEFF : We no longer need you here.
SANJI : Old geezer, I remain your assistant. You need me.
ZEFF : You always fight with our customers. You flirt with any woman.
Nami is upset.
ZEFF : And your food is bad. You are just a burden for this restaurant ! That's what I wanted to talk about.
SANJI : What ?
ZEFF : The other cooks don't like you anyway. Why wouldn't you become a pirate ? Why wouldn't you leave here ?
SANJI : What ? I didn't hurt anything and now you piss me off, old geezer ? I don't care what you say but I would never allow my food to be insulted ! No matter what you are going to say, I would stay here as a cook ! If it bothers you, it doesn't matter !
Zeff throws him on the table where Luffy's crew has eaten who just had time to catch their plates before Sanji destroys the table by falling on it : "Are you kidding me ?"
He sits down : "No matter your attempts, I would stay here as a cook until your retirement !"
ZEFF : So you will have to wait a long time.
He returns to the kitchen.
Luffy touches Sanji's shoulder : "It's great, he just fire you. Now, join my..."
SANJI : It's true that you have 2 very convincing arguments but I really can't.
He replaces the table and puts a fruit salad in front of Nami : "To make me forgive, I have prepared a fruit salad, my princess."
NAMI : Oh thank you, you are so kind.
SANJI : It's nothing.
USOPP : And us ?
Sanji gives him a cup of tea : "This will calm you down."
USOPP : Huh ? You want to fight ? I'm not going to hold my blows against you ! Go ahead, Zoro !
ZORO : Do it yourself.
NAMI : Please don't fight because of me.
SANJI : No problem.
USOPP : I don't fight because of you !
NAMI : The food here is delicious but a little expensive for me.
SANJI : It's obviously free for you and Uta.
Nami gives him a hug by taking him by the neck : "Thank you."
SANJI : On the other hand, the others paying for all.
ZORO : I would have bet it.
Luffy laughs but Sanji tramples his face : "Why are you lazy ?"
He drags him in the distance : "Give towels to our customers when they enter !"
LUFFY : Yes.
Uta sings and Zoro falls asleep.
Zoro, Usopp and Nami discuss on the deck of the Going Merry.
USOPP : It's been 4 days already. I'm starting to get tired of this place. Do you think we can leave soon ?
ZORO : Luffy said 2 weeks, right ?
USOPP : So there are still 10 days left.
NAMI : We could even stay longer. The food is free and the atmosphere is comfortable.
ZORO : Only for you and Uta !
Luffy takes out the garbage cans.
USOPP : Luffy !
Luffy looks up to his teammates : "Huh ?"
USOPP : What are you doing ? We have been waiting for too long !
LUFFY : It's not even a week.
USOPP : Do you really plan to stay 2 weeks ?
Luffy does not answer him and turns his head because there is a huge pirate ship that is approaching.
USOPP : Luffy, forget this debt and brings Uta back ! We put the sails !
NAMI : This boat is huge !
Luffy does not listen and joins Sanji who courted up Uta by holding her hand : "Oh, you sing like an angel descended from the sky."
Uta blushed, embarrassed : "Luffy, that's not what you think !"
LUFFY : Sanji, do you think Gyn came to pay ?
Sanji resumes his senses : "I doubt it but it's weird."
LUFFY : It looks like this boat is in a dirty state.
SANJI : It does not seem to have been bombed but it doesn't look like it's a human who did that.
LUFFY : A storm then ?
UTA : It looks like sword attacks.
Sanji caress her head : "You are very cute but no sword could do such damage."
USOPP : But what's going on ?
ZORO : Let's see.
USOPP : What ? Are you serious ?
ZORO : Would you be afraid ?
USOPP : Not at all but someone has to watch the boat.
ZORO : Nami can take care of it.
Sanji sits.
GYN : Sanji, I'm sorry. I didn't think he would do that.
Sanji tries to go back to the kitchen but the other cooks do not let him pass.
UTA : This guy is crazy.
LUFFY : He is absolutely essential in the crew.
SANJI : I know it's a tyrant but I don't care. No matter what will happen after they ate. I am a cook, nothing more. When people are hungry, I give them food.
He is knocked out from behind.
LUFFY : His armor has...
UTA : Firearms ?
KRIEG : Do what I say ! I am the strongest and the most resistant ! I have an army of 101 men !
Zeff puts a huge bag in front of him : "Here is food for 100 men, I hope it will be enough. Hurry to go to your boat."
LUFFY : The boss too ?
UTA : He's as crazy as Sanji.
KRIEG : Zeff, pass me on your logbook.
LUFFY : Have you ever gone to the Grand Line, boss ?
ZEFF : Yeah, I have a logbook but I will not give it to you. There are all the adventures of my crew. It's far too sentimental for you.
KRIEG : So I would take it. I could not go on Grand Line but I remain the powerful Don Krieg ! I had power, number of men and ambition but I lacked information. This is the only reason for my failure. As soon as I have this logbook, I would form a new fleet to get the One Piece and I would become the King of the Pirates !
Luffy designates him : "Wait a little, I will become the King of the Pirates !"
KRIEG : What did you just say, kid ? I will pretend I had heard nothing.
LUFFY : Why ? It's the truth.
KRIEG : It's not a game.
LUFFY : Of course not but we will go to the Grand Line.
KRIEG : Don't laugh at me, kid ! Maybe I was missing informations but even my fleet of 5000 men was destroyed in a week ! What makes you think you're going to get there ?
LUFFY : Because I promised it to her father.
KRIEG : Who are you talking about ?
Luffy designates Uta : "She is the daughter of Shanks."
Krieg laughs : "Red Hair Shanks ? The Yonko ? He would have a daughter at East Blue ?"
UTA : Don't listen to him, I'm a common girl.
KRIEG : I wouldn't be so sure. If I kidnap the daughter of a Yonko, I would be feared from other pirates, even Shanks would not dare to attack me.
LUFFY : As if I was going to let you kidnap my best girl friend.
Zoro and Usopp enter. Zoro is preparing to take a sword : "Do you want a helping hand, Luffy ?"
Usopp shakes his knees : "You will not touch my big sister !"
LUFFY : Zoro ! Usopp ! You are there ? I take care of protecting Uta.
USOPP : Very good, Captain. I trust you.
He starts again to shake : "But I'm ready to intervene anytime. Good luck !"
Zoro pushes his elbow into the ribs.
USOPP : Why did you do that, Zoro ?
ZORO : Shut up and stay quiet.
Krieg laughs : "Is that your teammates ? You have nothing better than a shabby swordsman and a fearful liar to protect your best friend ?"
LUFFY : I still have 2.
SANJI : Stop counting me !
KRIEG : I would take care of you later. For the moment, I have to feed my men.
He takes the big bag of food : "Those who do not want to die better do not be there anymore when I come back. All I want is the logbook, this boat and the daughter of Shanks. Protect her if you get there, Strawhat."
He comes out laughing.
Gyn manages to kneel : "I'm sorry, Sanji. I would never have imagined that it would happen like that."
ZEFF : No need to apologize. We are cook. We are there to prevent people from starving. Sanji knows this phenomenon well.
UTA : Sanji ?
SANJI : Do you worry about me, wonderful Uta ?
UTA : I think Luffy is right to want to recruit you in the crew.
ZEFF : You can leave now both. I don't want to be an involuntary accomplice of your kidnapping.
UTA : We are committed to working here for 2 weeks, Boss. Right, Luffy ?
LUFFY : You're right. We will prevent them from stealing your boat.
GYN : You're crazy ! You have no chance against Don Krieg !
Sanji advances : "Hey, Gyn, feeding those who are hungry is the duty of a cook but now that your captain is full, he is no longer in this category. I would have no qualms about trampling them one by one if they try to steal this restaurant ! Even you ! "
LUFFY : Even Uta agrees to recruit him.
USOPP : Do you really want to stay ?
ZORO : He's our captain. It is he who decides.
Luffy turns to Gyn : "You lied to me. You've already been on the Grand Line."
GYN : It's true but I don't want to remember it anymore. On the 7th day, only one man destroyed our fleet of 50 boats. With his big sword and his falcon eye, he cut all our boats except that one.
ZORO : What ?
ZEFF : This man is surely Mihawk.
ZORO : Mihawk !
LUFFY : Do you know him, Zoro ?
ZORO : He's the man I'm looking for. Uta has already met him.
UTA : Obviously, Shanks and he were often fought.
USOPP : You were too lucky to attend this, big sister.
UTA : At first, yes but at the end of the 10th fight, you are bored. And it always ended up on equality.
ZORO : Do you mean Mihawk has never defeated Shanks ?
UTA : It's been 10 years since I saw him so I don't know.
USOPP : Losing an arm must handicap him.
Luffy lowers his head.
USOPP : Luffy, are you okay ?
LUFFY : It's my fault.
USOPP : What do you mean ?
UTA : Luffy was kidnapped by a bandit when he was young and Shanks saved him but when he returned, he lacked an arm.
ZORO : He had to be powerful then.
SANJI : Are you stupid or what ? Are we talking about Shanks ? Yonko ? Obviously he is stronger than Mihawk, even with one arm less.
ZORO : So when I have defeated Mihawk, it will be the next on my list. I would be the best swordsman in the world.
LUFFY : I would prefer to become King of pirates before seeing Shanks again.
USOPP : Me too, I am not in a hurry to see my father again.
ZORO : Find a dream already, we'll see afterwards.
SANJI : Dreams that lead only to death, I find it stupid. Except yours, wonderful Uta !
UTA : Thanks, Sanji.
Krieg's ship is cut in two.
LUFFY : What ?
KRIEG : He follows us !
ZORO : It stinks ! Johnny, Yosaku and Nami stayed on the boat !
He runs outside followed by Usopp : "Kaya's gift !"
Luffy and Uta also come out and see Johnny and Yosaku who swim : "Friends !"
LUFFY : Johnny ? Yosaku ? Are you okay ?
ZORO : Where's the boat ? Where's Nami ?
JOHNNY : Unfortunately, she has already left with the boat.
Uta lowers her head.
LUFFY/ZORO/USOPP : What ?
USOPP : How ?
LUFFY : Nami left with the Going Merry ?
ZORO : What happened ?
UTA : She went home but I didn't think she would steal the boat.
Zoro wants to punch her but knocks the wall instead : "Was you informed ? Since when ?"
UTA : It's been 2 days.
USOPP : It was Kaya who offered us this boat !
Luffy looks at the horizon : "Wait, I see it."
He turns to Johnny and Yosaku : "Where's your boat ?"
YOSAKU : We always have it but...
LUFFY : Zoro, Usopp, go right away ! Nami must be caught up.
ZORO : Drop, let her go. No need to chase this girl.
LUFFY : I need her as a navigator. She is more competent than Uta.
UTA : I can't deny it.
ZORO : You won. Come, Usopp.
Johnny and Yosaku prepare their boat. Zoro looks at Luffy and Uta : "And you 2 ?"
LUFFY : As Uta said, we have to stay for 2 weeks. I will protect the restaurant from the Krieg attack.
ZORO : Be careful, I feel that this guy is stronger than you think.
LUFFY : I am strong too.
Zoro sees Mihawk : "It's..."
LUFFY : Zoro, do you know him ?
ZORO : It's the guy I'm looking for. Mihawk.
UTA : I talked about him earlier.
LUFFY : All I heard is that he fought against Shanks.
Uta sighs.
ZORO : The strongest swordsman of the world.
He approaches after Mihawk deviated from the bullets with his large sword : "I have never seen such elegant sword handling."
MIHAWK : A sword using only strength is not powerful.
ZORO : Is it true that you fought Shanks ?
MIHAWK : Of course.
ZORO : I see. You are the most powerful. I sailed on the seas to fight you.
MIHAWK : What is your goal ?
Zoro puts his bandana : "Be the best."
MIHAWK : Fool.
Zoro takes Wado Ichimonji : "You have free time, right ? Let's fight !"
Uta jumps next to him : "A second, I have an important thing to do before."
She hugs Mihawk : "I'm delighted to see you again, Uncle !"
MIHAWK : Uta, I already told you not to call me like that.
Uta lets him go and pout : "Are you not even happy to see me ? It's been 10 years."
MIHAWK : You have become a beautiful young woman. You have a boyfriend ?
Uta blushes : "No, not for the moment."
Zoro gets impatient : "Okay, I'm glad you saw him again, Uta but you bother me in my duel."
Usopp looks at Luffy : "The Merry Go is about to disappear on the horizon. Hey, Luffy !"
But Luffy does not listen to him, too busy with Zoro and Mihawk.
MIHAWK : A duel ? You are too weak.
UTA : I told you.
ZORO : Shut up, Uta !
UTA : Do you want to try to beat him with a single sword ?
ZORO : I have no choice. Because of you, I broke the other 2.
UTA : Because you can't cut the metal.
MIHAWK : Do you teach him the Haki ?
UTA : No, not yet.
She turns to Zoro : "Listen to me, I have a proposal to make you."
ZORO : Like what ?
UTA : You're going to fight Mihawk but it will just be a training to show your shortcomings.
MIHAWK : I agree. It is too early for you to die.
Zoro sighs : "Very good, do your thing."
Uta takes her headset, turning on her speakers and sings.
The 2 swords of Zoro appear in his sheath.
KRIEG : Do you think I'm going to stay without doing anything ? Because of you, I lost my fleet !
Uta flies to him : "You would be kind not to interfere otherwise I will get angry."
Krieg laughs : "You may have eaten the angel's zoan or I don't know what but you are weak compared to me !"
UTA : Very good. Attack me. If I win, your crew will not have the right to take revenge. If you win, I join your crew of my own free will.
LUFFY : Uta !
UTA : Let me do it, Luffy. I know what I'm doing.
KRIEG : Very good, deal concluded. I will try not to make you suffer.
He takes a mace at the end of a chain and launches it on her.
LUFFY : Gum Gum...
UTA : Luffy, let me do it. I have to win on my own. You will have your turn.
Luffy gives up. Uta strengthens her leg and tramples the mace like a soccer ball : "Next."
Krieg places his shield on his glove.
GYN : Are you going to use the MH5 ?
Uta smiles and forms a protection bubble that encompasses her and Krieg : "I hope you have an antidote because my father will kill you if I die."
Krieg puts his mask on his face : "Of course I have an antidote. I just want to put you knock out."
UTA : So go ahead.
Krieg launches his bomb with poisoned gas, contaminating the whole bubble but Uta continues to smile : "It smells like the old dirty sock but it's not worse than Luffy's breath."
LUFFY : Hey !
KRIEG : Impossible, by creating this bubble, you have changed my gas !
UTA : No but it's against me that you are fighting. I don't want any collateral victim.
Krieg launches sharp spikes that turn into flowers. Uta picks up one to sniff it : "It smells better."
KRIEG : Stop making fun of me !
He takes his spear and tries to explode Uta with but she dodges : "Your attacks are lethal, huh ?"
KRIEG : Yeah, I don't care about your father ! I just want you to die !
Uta shows a spear and a shield in her hands : "So try to explode my shield."
Krieg sends his spear on the Uta' shield, causing a huge explosion.
Luffy hits the bubble with his 2 hands : "Uta !"
SANJI : If he killed her, I have minced him!
ZORO : Don't worry, she can't lose.
USOPP : It's not really the real world here.
The smoke dissipates and Uta wears a golden armor : "Sorry to copy your look but I think it suits me better than you."
Krieg is backing down when he saw his spear destroyed : "No, it's impossible. You can't defeat me. I am invincible !"
Uta throws her own spear which explodes the golden armor of Krieg, putting him knock out : "I am invincible ? It gives me an idea of song. Thank you."
She ties up Krieg on a musical score and takes off the bubble : "Anyone else wants to fight me ?"
GYN : No, we're not going to interfere.
Uta resumes her normal appearance : "You can train him, Uncle."
Mihawk growls : "I don't like it when you call me like that."
Zoro takes his 3 swords : "You have discussed enough. Let's fight."
Mihawk takes a little knife.
ZORO : Could you be serious ?
MIHAWK : But I am. Lesson n°1, it is not the size of the blade that makes you a good swordsman.
ZORO : Don't tell me you faced Shanks with this toy ?
MIHAWK : Try to attack me and you will see if it's a toy.
ZORO : Demon Slash !
Mihawk manages to block his attack and Zoro fell back : "It was luck !"
MIHAWK : So start again.
ZORO : Tiger Slash !
As he rushes, Mihawk plants his knife in the heart : "Lesson n°2, favors distance attacks if your opponent is stronger."
Zoro backs up : "Have you tried to kill me ?"
MIHAWK : I know that here, your physical body feels nothing but I want you to feel the pain of my attacks.
ZORO : So I'm not going to experiment the big sword ?
Mihawk takes Yoru : "Use your most powerful attack."
ZORO : San Zen Sekai !
Mihawk breaks the 2 swords that Zoro had in hands.
UTA : I warned you.
MIHAWK : Lesson n°3, hardened your body and your blades so that they can cut anything and resist everything.
Zoro gets up and spreads his arms.
MIHAWK : What are you doing ?
ZORO : I want to feel your blade slicing my body.
MIHAWK : As you want.
He cuts Zoro's chest, making him bleed abundantly and he falls to the ground.
LUFFY : Zoro !
UTA : Luffy, calm down.
MIHAWK : Uta, I count on you to train him at the bases of Haki.
UTA : I would do my best.
Mihawk looks at Luffy : "What is your goal ?"
LUFFY : Become the King of Pirates.
MIHAWK : Shanks told me but I wanted to be sure.
UTA : Have you seen my father ? Is he at East Blue ?
MIHAWK : No, it was on the Grand Line.
Zoro lifts Wado Ichimonji above his head : "Luffy, do you hear me ?"
LUFFY : Yes.
ZORO : Are you afraid that I never reach the level of Mihawk despite Uta's advices ?
Uta pouts.
ZORO : I will never lose a fight again as long as my Haki will not surpass his ! What do you think, King of Pirates ?
LUFFY : Perfect !
MIHAWK : I think it's time that you wake us up, Uta.
ZEFF : Wait, before I want to ask him for something.
UTA : I listen to you.
ZEFF : You clearly had the power to fall asleep us and then leave with Strawhat. Why did you stay so long ?
UTA : It's simple.
She winks at Sanji : "Luffy needs a cook."
Sanji has his eye in heart : "I love you too, Wonderful Uta !"
Uta sings then falls on her knees : "I am very tired. I have never taken so many people in the world of song so long."
Zoro gets up and looks at his T-shirt : "I would never forget this injury."
USOPP : What injury ? You were not even injured.
LUFFY : Zoro, Usopp. Take Uta with you.
Zoro grabs Uta into his arms and takes her to the boat of his 2 friends where Usopp awaits them.
LUFFY : Go find Nami.
USOPP : No problem, we're going to bring her back. You try to convince Sanji !
LUFFY : Yes, okay ! Boss, if I defeat Don Krieg, could I go too ?
Uta ends up falling asleep.

VIVI : So it was more a training than a duel.
UTA : You can say that yes.
DOLTON : I'm starting to appreciate you. You are pirates but you help others.
USOPP : And wait for me to tell you how I released Nami from Arlong's claws ! It was too epic !
Someone knocks at the door.
DOLTON : Enter.
A big woman enters : "It seems that you are looking for Dr. Kureha."
DOLTON : It's true but...
WOMAN : She is currently in Cocoa Weed.
UTA/USOPP/VIVI : What ?

Description
Previous : www.deviantart.com/retroactor2…

On the island of Drum, in Dolton's house, Uta ends her song. Vivi, Usopp and Dolton applaud.
DOLTON : It was incredible.
Uta greets : "Thank you all."
USOPP : It was I who taught her everything.
Uta has a sadistic smile : "Really ? So why don't you show your talents as a singer, little brother ?"
Usopp pretends to cough : "It would have been with pleasure but with this cold, my throat irritated."
Vivi takes out the logbook of her pocket : "And then there is more important to do."
UTA : Oh no, why did you take this here ?
VIVI : I knew it would have time while waiting for Nami to be healed. Come on, I want to know for Mr. Bushido's fight against Mihawk.
DOLTON : Against Mihawk ? One of the Warlord ?
USOPP : We may not talk about it in front of you, it won't interest you.
DOLTON : On the contrary, I would surely have a better opinion of you if I know one of your adventures.
Uta sighs: "Very well. We had just returned to sea on our new boat when we met Johnny and Yosaku, former friends of Zoro. They told the direction of a restaurant ship where we could recruit a cook but a Navy ship spotted our Jolly Roger."
Usopp crosses his arms : "I knew we should have taken my 1st drawing."
UTA : Do not forget, Usopp. It's Luffy, the captain.
USOPP : I know.
UTA : The Navy attacked us with a cannonball. Zoro tried to cut it but 2 of his swords were destroyed by the impact. Luffy however managed to repel it by throwing it towards the roof of the restaurant. I followed Luffy when he was brought in front the owner.

24 days earlier, Luffy kneels : "I'm really sorry."
He sees Zeff's wooden leg : "Did I tear your leg ?"
Zeff stamps his face with his intact foot : "Idiot ! I have this wooden leg for years."
LUFFY : So everything is fine if it's not me.
ZEFF : But you still injured me. The restaurant repair invoices as well as the costs for the doctor will be expensive.
UTA : A second, it's true that Luffy sent you the cannonball but at the start, it came from a navy ship so if you want to pay someone, contact the guy who comes from enter.
ZEFF : I find you very insolent for a kid. If the Navy shot you, it's because you're pirates, right ?
Uta crosses her arms : "Yeah but..."
ZEFF : Then the discussion is over.
LUFFY : Just for information, I have no money to give you. Nami kept everything.
ZEFF : It's really a shame. You will have to work here to reimburse me.
LUFFY : No problem.
ZEFF : For a year.
LUFFY : Yeah, I'm going to work for a year !
ZEFF : Then you can leave.
LUFFY : Wait. A year ? I can only stay a week.
ZEFF : It is not enough.
LUFFY : Very good, 2 weeks maximum.
ZEFF : You ruined my restaurant and hurt the chef. Do you think you can reimburse me in just 2 weeks ?
LUFFY : Of course.
Zeff is preparing to trample Luffy but Uta sets off in front of him : "Get out of my way, young girl."
Uta smiles : "No way. If you want to hit him, knock me first."
Zeff rests his foot on the ground : "Cheeky girl."
LUFFY : Listen, I waited 10 long years to become a pirate. I can't stay here for a month. So it will be 2 weeks or nothing.
ZEFF : If you are really so in a hurry, I have an alternative solution to offer you. Instead of a year, I cut your leg.
LUFFY : Her father has already lost an arm. No way that I lose a leg.
UTA : Listen, Mr...
ZEFF : Zeff.
UTA : Mr Zeff, if you let me put entertainment in your restaurant, I can assure you that you will have so many customers that the debt will be reimbursed in less than 2 weeks. Otherwise, you cut his leg.
Zeff shakes her hand : "Deal. You start for the meal tonight."
UTA : One last thing. Luffy is very clumsy and eats a lot. I do not recommend letting him enter the kitchen.
ZEFF : Understood. He will take client orders.
LUFFY : Don't forget, Zeff. 2 weeks.
ZEFF : Call me boss. Sanji, stop it right away ! Are you still fighting in my restaurant, you ungrateful ?
SANJI : Shut up, old asshole !
ZEFF : What ? Who do you think you are talking about ? Do you want to destroy my restaurant ?
He tramples his face with his wooden leg : "Insolent !"
Then do the same with Fullbody : "You too ! Get out of my restaurant !"
Sanji gets up and quarrel with Patty.
ZEFF : If you want to fight, do it outside !
LUFFY : This restaurant is really agitated.
UTA : I'm going to have trouble making myself heard without a good microphone.
Gyn armed with a gun enter the room.
ZEFF : This new customer has an interest in not causing more problems at my restaurant.
Luffy smiles : "A pirate ?"
Gyn sits at a table : "I don't care what it is...give me eat. It's a restaurant, right ?"
Patty takes his command : "And what do you want to eat ?"
GYN : Are you deaf ? Anything that is edible.
PATTY : And how do you plan to pay ?
Gyn threatens him with the gun : "Like that."
PATTY: If you don't have any money ...
He knocks him out with his big fists.
ZEFF : And another chair to replace.
UTA : Does it happen often ?
ZEFF : Too often.
LUFFY : What a strength.
PATTY : If you don't have any money, you don't eat.
He throws Gyn outside who regains consciousness : "I would take revenge..."
Luffy and Uta look at him.
LUFFY : You starve, right ?
GYN : Not at all...I am not hungry at all.
Sanji leaves a plate of food in front of him : "Eat."
GYN : Get it from here ! I refuse your charity !
SANJI : For me, any one who starve is a customer.
GYN : I have nothing to pay...
SANJI : The ocean can be cruel. On this sea, not having food or water is horrible. I understand those who starve better than anyone. Die with dignity, if you want but taste it at least to honor my dish. "
Gyn ends up eating the whole plate : "It's delicious! I thought I was going to die ! I never thought I would eat something so good in my whole life !"
SANJI : Glad you like it.
LUFFY : Great, I found my cook !
UTA : But he works in this restaurant.
LUFFY : Like us, Uta.
He looks at Sanji : "Hey, the cook ! You don't want to become my teammate ? You will be the cook on my pirate boat."
Sanji has eyes only for Uta and his visible eye turns into a heart : "Here I am in Paradise, I have the most magnificent angel in front of me."
Uta blushes, embarrassed.
LUFFY : Hey, the cook ! You listen to me ?
Sanji resumes his senses : "Are you a pirate ? Is that why you attacked this restaurant ?"
LUFFY : In fact, it was an accident. I pushed back a cannonball.
SANJI : In any case, avoids damaging this restaurant more. The boss was once a Captain Pirate.
LUFFY : Huh ? This old man was a pirate ?
SANJI : For this old asshole, this restaurant is worth more than any treasure but we often attract pirates.
LUFFY : It really looks like we're not going to be bored during these 2 weeks, Uta.
SANJI : Uta. What a wonderful first name. When I hear it, I want to sing you a serenade.
LUFFY : Do you know how to sing too ? Maybe you could make a duet with her ? But first, join my crew.
SANJI : Wait, Uta. Are you part of his crew ?
UTA : Yes, I'm the cook for the moment but it would make me too happy that you replace me so that I can focus on my songs.
SANJI : It would have been with pleasure but I can't.
LUFFY : Why ?
SANJI : For personal reasons.
LUFFY : This is not a good reason so join my crew.
SANJI : Uta is very cute but I can't.
Uta blushes again.
LUFFY : What has Uta have to do with that ?
SANJI : I think you are too young to understand.
LUFFY : I have 2 years less than you.
SANJI : At 17, you're not mature enough, straw hat asshole !
LUFFY : Don't insult my hat ! It belonged to Uta's father !
GYN : Sorry to interrupt you but...
SANJI/LUFFY : What ?
GYN : I'm part of Don Krieg's crew. My name is Gin. So you two are also pirates ? What is your goal ?
UTA : I want to create a new era where everyone will be free to hear me sing.
LUFFY : I'm looking for One Piece. We're going to the Grand Line.
GYN : If you're looking for a professional cook, I imagine you have a small crew.
Luffy points to Sanji : "With him, we are 6."
SANJI : Why are you counting me too ?
GYN : You seem like a good person, so take my advice. Don't go on the Grand Line. You are still young. No need to rush. Grand Line is only a small part of the world's oceans. If you want to be pirates, there are plenty of other less intimidating places.
UTA : You say that because you've been on the Grand Line ?
GYN : Not at all !
SANJI : Are you really one of Don Krieg's men ? I didn't know he hired cowards.
LUFFY : Don Krieg ?
Gyn gets on a small boat : "See you next time."
LUFFY : We're still planning on going to the Grand Line.
GYN : Do what you want. If you want to die, it's not my problem but I preferred to warn you.
He looks at Sanji : "Thank you very much for saving my life. This rice was really delicious. Can I come back ?"
SANJI : Whenever you want.
Zeff looks at them from a distance : "Little shit, are you getting to know the new recruits ?"
SANJI : Go ahead, Gyn.
GYN : I'm sorry. You're gonna be in trouble for letting me eat for free.
SANJI : No, the old geezer and I understand each other.
Gyn sets sail.
SANJI : Don't get caught again, Gyn.
GYN : Thank you, Sanji.
ZEFF : Sanji, get back to work right now.
Uta is nervous : "Come on, you can do it. You sang at Makino's bar every night. Ok, the room is bigger and in my opinion, there will be more spectators but it will do."
She goes up on the stage, looking at the room which is starting to fill up : "Good evening everyone, I welcome you all to this magnificent restaurant. My name is Uta and I will perform a few songs for you to entertain you. Do not hesitate tell your friends about it, I'm here for 2 weeks."
She sees Zoro trying to smother Luffy with a glass of water : "That'll teach you to throw your boogers at me !"
Nami and Usopp laugh.
At a nearby table, Sanji is serving a customer : "His teammates are loud."
He sees Nami and joins her with a flower : "Oh, sweet ocean, thank you for arranging this meeting on this day ! Oh, my love, you can make fun of me. As long as I am with you, it doesn't matter that I am a pirate or a demon !"
LUFFY : Then join my crew.
SANJI : But what a misfortune ! A big obstacle is in front of us !
Zeff joins them : "Is it me the obstacle, Sanji ?"
SANJI : Shit, old geezer.
ZEFF : Since you are in love with this girl, will therefore join her.
Sanji turns to him, annoyed.
ZEFF : We no longer need you here.
SANJI : Old geezer, I remain your assistant. You need me.
ZEFF : You always fight with our customers. You flirt with any woman.
Nami is upset.
ZEFF : And your food is bad. You are just a burden for this restaurant ! That's what I wanted to talk about.
SANJI : What ?
ZEFF : The other cooks don't like you anyway. Why wouldn't you become a pirate ? Why wouldn't you leave here ?
SANJI : What ? I didn't hurt anything and now you piss me off, old geezer ? I don't care what you say but I would never allow my food to be insulted ! No matter what you are going to say, I would stay here as a cook ! If it bothers you, it doesn't matter !
Zeff throws him on the table where Luffy's crew has eaten who just had time to catch their plates before Sanji destroys the table by falling on it : "Are you kidding me ?"
He sits down : "No matter your attempts, I would stay here as a cook until your retirement !"
ZEFF : So you will have to wait a long time.
He returns to the kitchen.
Luffy touches Sanji's shoulder : "It's great, he just fire you. Now, join my..."
SANJI : It's true that you have 2 very convincing arguments but I really can't.
He replaces the table and puts a fruit salad in front of Nami : "To make me forgive, I have prepared a fruit salad, my princess."
NAMI : Oh thank you, you are so kind.
SANJI : It's nothing.
USOPP : And us ?
Sanji gives him a cup of tea : "This will calm you down."
USOPP : Huh ? You want to fight ? I'm not going to hold my blows against you ! Go ahead, Zoro !
ZORO : Do it yourself.
NAMI : Please don't fight because of me.
SANJI : No problem.
USOPP : I don't fight because of you !
NAMI : The food here is delicious but a little expensive for me.
SANJI : It's obviously free for you and Uta.
Nami gives him a hug by taking him by the neck : "Thank you."
SANJI : On the other hand, the others paying for all.
ZORO : I would have bet it.
Luffy laughs but Sanji tramples his face : "Why are you lazy ?"
He drags him in the distance : "Give towels to our customers when they enter !"
LUFFY : Yes.
Uta sings and Zoro falls asleep.
Zoro, Usopp and Nami discuss on the deck of the Going Merry.
USOPP : It's been 4 days already. I'm starting to get tired of this place. Do you think we can leave soon ?
ZORO : Luffy said 2 weeks, right ?
USOPP : So there are still 10 days left.
NAMI : We could even stay longer. The food is free and the atmosphere is comfortable.
ZORO : Only for you and Uta !
Luffy takes out the garbage cans.
USOPP : Luffy !
Luffy looks up to his teammates : "Huh ?"
USOPP : What are you doing ? We have been waiting for too long !
LUFFY : It's not even a week.
USOPP : Do you really plan to stay 2 weeks ?
Luffy does not answer him and turns his head because there is a huge pirate ship that is approaching.
USOPP : Luffy, forget this debt and brings Uta back ! We put the sails !
NAMI : This boat is huge !
Luffy does not listen and joins Sanji who courted up Uta by holding her hand : "Oh, you sing like an angel descended from the sky."
Uta blushed, embarrassed : "Luffy, that's not what you think !"
LUFFY : Sanji, do you think Gyn came to pay ?
Sanji resumes his senses : "I doubt it but it's weird."
LUFFY : It looks like this boat is in a dirty state.
SANJI : It does not seem to have been bombed but it doesn't look like it's a human who did that.
LUFFY : A storm then ?
UTA : It looks like sword attacks.
Sanji caress her head : "You are very cute but no sword could do such damage."
USOPP : But what's going on ?
ZORO : Let's see.
USOPP : What ? Are you serious ?
ZORO : Would you be afraid ?
USOPP : Not at all but someone has to watch the boat.
ZORO : Nami can take care of it.
Sanji sits.
GYN : Sanji, I'm sorry. I didn't think he would do that.
Sanji tries to go back to the kitchen but the other cooks do not let him pass.
UTA : This guy is crazy.
LUFFY : He is absolutely essential in the crew.
SANJI : I know it's a tyrant but I don't care. No matter what will happen after they ate. I am a cook, nothing more. When people are hungry, I give them food.
He is knocked out from behind.
LUFFY : His armor has...
UTA : Firearms ?
KRIEG : Do what I say ! I am the strongest and the most resistant ! I have an army of 101 men !
Zeff puts a huge bag in front of him : "Here is food for 100 men, I hope it will be enough. Hurry to go to your boat."
LUFFY : The boss too ?
UTA : He's as crazy as Sanji.
KRIEG : Zeff, pass me on your logbook.
LUFFY : Have you ever gone to the Grand Line, boss ?
ZEFF : Yeah, I have a logbook but I will not give it to you. There are all the adventures of my crew. It's far too sentimental for you.
KRIEG : So I would take it. I could not go on Grand Line but I remain the powerful Don Krieg ! I had power, number of men and ambition but I lacked information. This is the only reason for my failure. As soon as I have this logbook, I would form a new fleet to get the One Piece and I would become the King of the Pirates !
Luffy designates him : "Wait a little, I will become the King of the Pirates !"
KRIEG : What did you just say, kid ? I will pretend I had heard nothing.
LUFFY : Why ? It's the truth.
KRIEG : It's not a game.
LUFFY : Of course not but we will go to the Grand Line.
KRIEG : Don't laugh at me, kid ! Maybe I was missing informations but even my fleet of 5000 men was destroyed in a week ! What makes you think you're going to get there ?
LUFFY : Because I promised it to her father.
KRIEG : Who are you talking about ?
Luffy designates Uta : "She is the daughter of Shanks."
Krieg laughs : "Red Hair Shanks ? The Yonko ? He would have a daughter at East Blue ?"
UTA : Don't listen to him, I'm a common girl.
KRIEG : I wouldn't be so sure. If I kidnap the daughter of a Yonko, I would be feared from other pirates, even Shanks would not dare to attack me.
LUFFY : As if I was going to let you kidnap my best girl friend.
Zoro and Usopp enter. Zoro is preparing to take a sword : "Do you want a helping hand, Luffy ?"
Usopp shakes his knees : "You will not touch my big sister !"
LUFFY : Zoro ! Usopp ! You are there ? I take care of protecting Uta.
USOPP : Very good, Captain. I trust you.
He starts again to shake : "But I'm ready to intervene anytime. Good luck !"
Zoro pushes his elbow into the ribs.
USOPP : Why did you do that, Zoro ?
ZORO : Shut up and stay quiet.
Krieg laughs : "Is that your teammates ? You have nothing better than a shabby swordsman and a fearful liar to protect your best friend ?"
LUFFY : I still have 2.
SANJI : Stop counting me !
KRIEG : I would take care of you later. For the moment, I have to feed my men.
He takes the big bag of food : "Those who do not want to die better do not be there anymore when I come back. All I want is the logbook, this boat and the daughter of Shanks. Protect her if you get there, Strawhat."
He comes out laughing.
Gyn manages to kneel : "I'm sorry, Sanji. I would never have imagined that it would happen like that."
ZEFF : No need to apologize. We are cook. We are there to prevent people from starving. Sanji knows this phenomenon well.
UTA : Sanji ?
SANJI : Do you worry about me, wonderful Uta ?
UTA : I think Luffy is right to want to recruit you in the crew.
ZEFF : You can leave now both. I don't want to be an involuntary accomplice of your kidnapping.
UTA : We are committed to working here for 2 weeks, Boss. Right, Luffy ?
LUFFY : You're right. We will prevent them from stealing your boat.
GYN : You're crazy ! You have no chance against Don Krieg !
Sanji advances : "Hey, Gyn, feeding those who are hungry is the duty of a cook but now that your captain is full, he is no longer in this category. I would have no qualms about trampling them one by one if they try to steal this restaurant ! Even you ! "
LUFFY : Even Uta agrees to recruit him.
USOPP : Do you really want to stay ?
ZORO : He's our captain. It is he who decides.
Luffy turns to Gyn : "You lied to me. You've already been on the Grand Line."
GYN : It's true but I don't want to remember it anymore. On the 7th day, only one man destroyed our fleet of 50 boats. With his big sword and his falcon eye, he cut all our boats except that one.
ZORO : What ?
ZEFF : This man is surely Mihawk.
ZORO : Mihawk !
LUFFY : Do you know him, Zoro ?
ZORO : He's the man I'm looking for. Uta has already met him.
UTA : Obviously, Shanks and he were often fought.
USOPP : You were too lucky to attend this, big sister.
UTA : At first, yes but at the end of the 10th fight, you are bored. And it always ended up on equality.
ZORO : Do you mean Mihawk has never defeated Shanks ?
UTA : It's been 10 years since I saw him so I don't know.
USOPP : Losing an arm must handicap him.
Luffy lowers his head.
USOPP : Luffy, are you okay ?
LUFFY : It's my fault.
USOPP : What do you mean ?
UTA : Luffy was kidnapped by a bandit when he was young and Shanks saved him but when he returned, he lacked an arm.
ZORO : He had to be powerful then.
SANJI : Are you stupid or what ? Are we talking about Shanks ? Yonko ? Obviously he is stronger than Mihawk, even with one arm less.
ZORO : So when I have defeated Mihawk, it will be the next on my list. I would be the best swordsman in the world.
LUFFY : I would prefer to become King of pirates before seeing Shanks again.
USOPP : Me too, I am not in a hurry to see my father again.
ZORO : Find a dream already, we'll see afterwards.
SANJI : Dreams that lead only to death, I find it stupid. Except yours, wonderful Uta !
UTA : Thanks, Sanji.
Krieg's ship is cut in two.
LUFFY : What ?
KRIEG : He follows us !
ZORO : It stinks ! Johnny, Yosaku and Nami stayed on the boat !
He runs outside followed by Usopp : "Kaya's gift !"
Luffy and Uta also come out and see Johnny and Yosaku who swim : "Friends !"
LUFFY : Johnny ? Yosaku ? Are you okay ?
ZORO : Where's the boat ? Where's Nami ?
JOHNNY : Unfortunately, she has already left with the boat.
Uta lowers her head.
LUFFY/ZORO/USOPP : What ?
USOPP : How ?
LUFFY : Nami left with the Going Merry ?
ZORO : What happened ?
UTA : She went home but I didn't think she would steal the boat.
Zoro wants to punch her but knocks the wall instead : "Was you informed ? Since when ?"
UTA : It's been 2 days.
USOPP : It was Kaya who offered us this boat !
Luffy looks at the horizon : "Wait, I see it."
He turns to Johnny and Yosaku : "Where's your boat ?"
YOSAKU : We always have it but...
LUFFY : Zoro, Usopp, go right away ! Nami must be caught up.
ZORO : Drop, let her go. No need to chase this girl.
LUFFY : I need her as a navigator. She is more competent than Uta.
UTA : I can't deny it.
ZORO : You won. Come, Usopp.
Johnny and Yosaku prepare their boat. Zoro looks at Luffy and Uta : "And you 2 ?"
LUFFY : As Uta said, we have to stay for 2 weeks. I will protect the restaurant from the Krieg attack.
ZORO : Be careful, I feel that this guy is stronger than you think.
LUFFY : I am strong too.
Zoro sees Mihawk : "It's..."
LUFFY : Zoro, do you know him ?
ZORO : It's the guy I'm looking for. Mihawk.
UTA : I talked about him earlier.
LUFFY : All I heard is that he fought against Shanks.
Uta sighs.
ZORO : The strongest swordsman of the world.
He approaches after Mihawk deviated from the bullets with his large sword : "I have never seen such elegant sword handling."
MIHAWK : A sword using only strength is not powerful.
ZORO : Is it true that you fought Shanks ?
MIHAWK : Of course.
ZORO : I see. You are the most powerful. I sailed on the seas to fight you.
MIHAWK : What is your goal ?
Zoro puts his bandana : "Be the best."
MIHAWK : Fool.
Zoro takes Wado Ichimonji : "You have free time, right ? Let's fight !"
Uta jumps next to him : "A second, I have an important thing to do before."
She hugs Mihawk : "I'm delighted to see you again, Uncle !"
MIHAWK : Uta, I already told you not to call me like that.
Uta lets him go and pout : "Are you not even happy to see me ? It's been 10 years."
MIHAWK : You have become a beautiful young woman. You have a boyfriend ?
Uta blushes : "No, not for the moment."
Zoro gets impatient : "Okay, I'm glad you saw him again, Uta but you bother me in my duel."
Usopp looks at Luffy : "The Merry Go is about to disappear on the horizon. Hey, Luffy !"
But Luffy does not listen to him, too busy with Zoro and Mihawk.
MIHAWK : A duel ? You are too weak.
UTA : I told you.
ZORO : Shut up, Uta !
UTA : Do you want to try to beat him with a single sword ?
ZORO : I have no choice. Because of you, I broke the other 2.
UTA : Because you can't cut the metal.
MIHAWK : Do you teach him the Haki ?
UTA : No, not yet.
She turns to Zoro : "Listen to me, I have a proposal to make you."
ZORO : Like what ?
UTA : You're going to fight Mihawk but it will just be a training to show your shortcomings.
MIHAWK : I agree. It is too early for you to die.
Zoro sighs : "Very good, do your thing."
Uta takes her headset, turning on her speakers and sings.
The 2 swords of Zoro appear in his sheath.
KRIEG : Do you think I'm going to stay without doing anything ? Because of you, I lost my fleet !
Uta flies to him : "You would be kind not to interfere otherwise I will get angry."
Krieg laughs : "You may have eaten the angel's zoan or I don't know what but you are weak compared to me !"
UTA : Very good. Attack me. If I win, your crew will not have the right to take revenge. If you win, I join your crew of my own free will.
LUFFY : Uta !
UTA : Let me do it, Luffy. I know what I'm doing.
KRIEG : Very good, deal concluded. I will try not to make you suffer.
He takes a mace at the end of a chain and launches it on her.
LUFFY : Gum Gum...
UTA : Luffy, let me do it. I have to win on my own. You will have your turn.
Luffy gives up. Uta strengthens her leg and tramples the mace like a soccer ball : "Next."
Krieg places his shield on his glove.
GYN : Are you going to use the MH5 ?
Uta smiles and forms a protection bubble that encompasses her and Krieg : "I hope you have an antidote because my father will kill you if I die."
Krieg puts his mask on his face : "Of course I have an antidote. I just want to put you knock out."
UTA : So go ahead.
Krieg launches his bomb with poisoned gas, contaminating the whole bubble but Uta continues to smile : "It smells like the old dirty sock but it's not worse than Luffy's breath."
LUFFY : Hey !
KRIEG : Impossible, by creating this bubble, you have changed my gas !
UTA : No but it's against me that you are fighting. I don't want any collateral victim.
Krieg launches sharp spikes that turn into flowers. Uta picks up one to sniff it : "It smells better."
KRIEG : Stop making fun of me !
He takes his spear and tries to explode Uta with but she dodges : "Your attacks are lethal, huh ?"
KRIEG : Yeah, I don't care about your father ! I just want you to die !
Uta shows a spear and a shield in her hands : "So try to explode my shield."
Krieg sends his spear on the Uta' shield, causing a huge explosion.
Luffy hits the bubble with his 2 hands : "Uta !"
SANJI : If he killed her, I have minced him!
ZORO : Don't worry, she can't lose.
USOPP : It's not really the real world here.
The smoke dissipates and Uta wears a golden armor : "Sorry to copy your look but I think it suits me better than you."
Krieg is backing down when he saw his spear destroyed : "No, it's impossible. You can't defeat me. I am invincible !"
Uta throws her own spear which explodes the golden armor of Krieg, putting him knock out : "I am invincible ? It gives me an idea of song. Thank you."
She ties up Krieg on a musical score and takes off the bubble : "Anyone else wants to fight me ?"
GYN : No, we're not going to interfere.
Uta resumes her normal appearance : "You can train him, Uncle."
Mihawk growls : "I don't like it when you call me like that."
Zoro takes his 3 swords : "You have discussed enough. Let's fight."
Mihawk takes a little knife.
ZORO : Could you be serious ?
MIHAWK : But I am. Lesson n°1, it is not the size of the blade that makes you a good swordsman.
ZORO : Don't tell me you faced Shanks with this toy ?
MIHAWK : Try to attack me and you will see if it's a toy.
ZORO : Demon Slash !
Mihawk manages to block his attack and Zoro fell back : "It was luck !"
MIHAWK : So start again.
ZORO : Tiger Slash !
As he rushes, Mihawk plants his knife in the heart : "Lesson n°2, favors distance attacks if your opponent is stronger."
Zoro backs up : "Have you tried to kill me ?"
MIHAWK : I know that here, your physical body feels nothing but I want you to feel the pain of my attacks.
ZORO : So I'm not going to experiment the big sword ?
Mihawk takes Yoru : "Use your most powerful attack."
ZORO : San Zen Sekai !
Mihawk breaks the 2 swords that Zoro had in hands.
UTA : I warned you.
MIHAWK : Lesson n°3, hardened your body and your blades so that they can cut anything and resist everything.
Zoro gets up and spreads his arms.
MIHAWK : What are you doing ?
ZORO : I want to feel your blade slicing my body.
MIHAWK : As you want.
He cuts Zoro's chest, making him bleed abundantly and he falls to the ground.
LUFFY : Zoro !
UTA : Luffy, calm down.
MIHAWK : Uta, I count on you to train him at the bases of Haki.
UTA : I would do my best.
Mihawk looks at Luffy : "What is your goal ?"
LUFFY : Become the King of Pirates.
MIHAWK : Shanks told me but I wanted to be sure.
UTA : Have you seen my father ? Is he at East Blue ?
MIHAWK : No, it was on the Grand Line.
Zoro lifts Wado Ichimonji above his head : "Luffy, do you hear me ?"
LUFFY : Yes.
ZORO : Are you afraid that I never reach the level of Mihawk despite Uta's advices ?
Uta pouts.
ZORO : I will never lose a fight again as long as my Haki will not surpass his ! What do you think, King of Pirates ?
LUFFY : Perfect !
MIHAWK : I think it's time that you wake us up, Uta.
ZEFF : Wait, before I want to ask him for something.
UTA : I listen to you.
ZEFF : You clearly had the power to fall asleep us and then leave with Strawhat. Why did you stay so long ?
UTA : It's simple.
She winks at Sanji : "Luffy needs a cook."
Sanji has his eye in heart : "I love you too, Wonderful Uta !"
Uta sings then falls on her knees : "I am very tired. I have never taken so many people in the world of song so long."
Zoro gets up and looks at his T-shirt : "I would never forget this injury."
USOPP : What injury ? You were not even injured.
LUFFY : Zoro, Usopp. Take Uta with you.
Zoro grabs Uta into his arms and takes her to the boat of his 2 friends where Usopp awaits them.
LUFFY : Go find Nami.
USOPP : No problem, we're going to bring her back. You try to convince Sanji !
LUFFY : Yes, okay ! Boss, if I defeat Don Krieg, could I go too ?
Uta ends up falling asleep.

VIVI : So it was more a training than a duel.
UTA : You can say that yes.
DOLTON : I'm starting to appreciate you. You are pirates but you help others.
USOPP : And wait for me to tell you how I released Nami from Arlong's claws ! It was too epic !
Someone knocks at the door.
DOLTON : Enter.
A big woman enters : "It seems that you are looking for Dr. Kureha."
DOLTON : It's true but...
WOMAN : She is currently in Cocoa Weed.
UTA/USOPP/VIVI : What ?
