[I have a grudge against the Navy and the Celestial Dragons, so it seems destihat I bee a pirate aablish my own pirate crew.]

  [If it weren't for knowing there's su excellent singer as Uta in this world, inviting a to be the singer wouldn't be a bad idea.]

  [Hmm... Even if a doesn't serve as a singer in the pirate crew, she could still take on the role of a thief.]

  [Then, she could use her skills to steal treasures for my pirate crew from other pces.]

  [However, the premise is that this great thief is willing to bey partner.]

  [Inviting a carries risks; if I'm not careful and she runs off with my pirate ship like she did with the Golden Emperor Tesoro's eai ship, that would be problematic.]

  "Deg to bee a pirate?" Nami furrowed her beautiful brows:

  "But since he's sidering inviting a to join, he probably won't do anything to her, right?"

  "a would run off with the Golden Emperor's ship? Is that something that happens iure?"

  Nami took another look at the "Photo: a Singing," growing curious about a's future.

  Simirly, she became increasingly curious about Arton, who knew a's future.

  "Arton, do you also know my future?"

  "Is there a se iure where I redeem Cocoyasi Vilge?"

  Nami pursed her lips, murmuring softly.

  ...

  After a finished singing, Arton had already cleared away the pirates' bodies.

  Simirly, he had set the sails, allowing the pirate ship to sail forward with the power of the wind.

  "The song was really o listen to."

  "As long as you're satisfied, savior."

  "Of course, I'm satisfied. I even have the idea of having you stay by my side as my singer, haha."

  "If you guarantee my safety, I am willing to bee your singer."

  "Really?"

  "Really!"

  "Even if I'm going to establish a pirate crew?"

  "My life was saved by you. If yoing to establish a pirate crew, then naturally I join."

  "Hehe, I'm touched. Since you've said so, then I'll make you my first crew member, although I haven't had the ce to design a pirate fg yet."

  "If you don't mind, I help you design it."

  "No, I'm a professional when it es to drawing. I'll hahe pirate fg myself."

  "Alright then, savior, no, I should now refer to you as the captain."

  a's lips curled up in a smile as she spoke to Arton.

  Ihe Giant Tiger Pirate Crew's ship, there were quite a few treasures brought by a and fiscated by the Giant Tiger Pirate Crew.

  And now, these treasures naturally fell into the hands of Arton, who had taken down the Giant Tiger Pirate Crew.

  a hadn't given up oreasures.

  Sion had the idea of making her a singer,

  Naturally, a had the idea of usiatus as a sio "retrieve" the treasures from Arton.

  "Captain, huh? That's a le."

  "But a, in my mind, there's already a didate for the singer role."

  "So, in my pirate crew, you might have to take on another role."

  Arton ughed.

  "Eh! Captain, do you think my singing is bad?"

  "Not at all. Your singing is very good; it's just that the one in my mind is too perfect for the role of the singer."

  "I see... you tell me who she is?"

  "Her name is Uta."

  "Uta? I've never heard of her. Is she someone you knotain?"

  "In a way, you could say she's an acquaintanine."

  Arton replied to a with a smile, his lips curling upwards.

  Arton wasn't too surprised that a hadn't heard of Uta's name.

  After all, Uta only truly became famous two years ter.

  It's indeed possible that a hadn't heard of Uta's this point in time.

  As for inviting Uta to be the singer of the pirate crew, Arton's i wasn't solely because of Uta's singing ability.

  More so, Arton was ied in Uta's unique Devil Fruit, the Uta Uta no Mi.

  "I really want to meet this Uta you speak of, Captain."

  "By the way, I still don't know your name, Captain."

  "Now that we're going to be crewmates, you tell me your name?"

  a pced her hand by her lips, looking at Arton with a cute expression.

  "My name? You call me Arton."

  Arton ughed.

  "I see, so your name is Arton... Wait, Arton?!"

  a's eyes widened in shock as she looked at Arton.

  Then, she immediately summoned her own diary copy and began flipping through it.

  Quickly, a's expression became incredibly odd.

  There was shock, and there was worry.

  "What's wrong, a?"

  "Is there something strange about my name?"

  Arton, notig a's expression, asked curiously.
