[Chapter Size: 1700 Words.]
Third Person POV
Calm Belt, First Half of GrandLine.
...
...
Attention: I am doing Luffy going to Elegia, but there is nothing that proves his actual location, so I will say it is in the South Blue, close to the red wall in the center of the world.
After becoming a married man, Luffy wasted no time and flew towards the South Blue. There was someone specific he needed to meet before rejoining his crew. He sliced through the sky, maneuvering among the clouds with agility at a speed increased by seventy times.
Enemies following the Vivre Cards of Doflamingo and Page-on found themselves forced to change course repeatedly, trying to guess where Luffy was heading to confuse their pursuers, not that he thought anyone too powerful for him to handle would come after him at this time. He still kept them in his pocket, to negotiate their freedom in the future, earning some money from the world government.
His journey continued over the vast sea, passing through various islands after crossing the Calm Belt and finally entering the southern sea, where the climate was much calmer than the Grand Line.
He followed the eternal pose to Elegia and headed in that direction for the next few days without rest as he approached the place, finally seeing it one day as a small point on the horizon.
This country is known worldwide as the capital of music, but something terrible happened a few years ago, announced as Shanks, the redhead, being the main cause of this disaster when he visited the island. Time passed, and in Elegia, after the island had gone through this disaster, it had risen again, the city of music had started to sing joyfully again after more than a decade in construction, the city was bustling with commerce again. Besides the basics like food, the trade in musical instruments was quite large here.
Luffy arrived on the island and landed out of sight of everyone before entering the city. He put on a cloak to cover his face so as not to be identified. It wasn't his style to hide, but he just wanted to stroll around peacefully before finding the person he wanted here since he would be easily recognized and could cause the entire kingdom to panic with a pirate of 750 million berries walking through the streets.
Entering the crowd of people on the main street, he walked calmly. "Shanks was here a long time ago... It's a link to the kingdom..." Luffy had to admit as he looked around, there were giant, shining crystals while a huge stage was under construction, people were singing and playing instruments all over the place, turning this place into a true country of music.
"Come see, come hear! Guitars with strings that capture the essence of the wind, flutes that whisper the stories of the seas! Each note a journey, each melody an adventure!" A seller announced as Luffy passed by.
Another exclaimed nearby, selling local food. "Sweet melodies for your ears and sweet flavors for your soul! Try the melody cake, a recipe passed down for generations, as sweet as the songs of Elegia!"
With a guitar in hand and a voice echoing through the streets, an artist sang: "Oh, Elegia, land of music and magic, your beauty reborn, stronger with each day!" The crowd around stopped to listen, some shiny coins being thrown in his direction in appreciation.
A man tried to approach Luffy at that moment, showing off a green crystal. "Elegia crystals, straight from our mines! Not just beautiful, but capable of amplifying the beauty of your music. A touch of magic for every musician's home!" But Luffy just ignored him and kept walking.
As Luffy wandered and looked at everything this country had to offer, he felt a presence approaching him directly, suddenly, a peculiar melody cut through the air, distinct from the other songs filling the streets. It was an incredibly beautiful voice, so captivating that for a brief moment, Luffy found himself caught up in the music, his feet moving almost against his will. Luffy realized someone was trying to control him with this music, which, besides being beautiful, had a power behind the melody trying to enchant him.
He stopped abruptly, his quick reaction surprising the source of the melody. The person behind him did not expect their attempt at enchantment to fail, nor did they expect Luffy to be able to discern the hidden intention in the music.
Luffy spun on his heels with astonishing speed, ready to confront the source of this mysterious music. He reached out to grab the person's arm and discover their intentions. But then, the female voice of the person soared, the melody intensifying in an effort to disorient him. It had some effect on Luffy, as the person managed to slip from his grasp and run scared to the other side while running through the streets.
"Can she affect me a bit?" Luffy commented, a bit surprised to see that the person had escaped and was running at that moment. Luffy looked at the person from under his cloak, who also had their own cloak hiding their face, while they continued to run looking scared. He began to question who it could be, and only one person came to his mind at that moment.
"Could it be...?" He murmured, looking at the person and decided to take action.
"Wait!" He shouted as the person ran through the crowd with many looking at them in surprise.
He ran after the person and would quickly catch up, but she released her melody, making him fall behind or causing people to get in his way. He could deal with that, but he didn't want to scare her if it was who he thought it might be. So, he decided on another approach.
The fleeing person looked back while running and singing, she saw that the cloaked stranger was no longer following her, which relieved her greatly, but she continued to run and sing so that the people around her would help her without realizing it.
She darted through the streets and entered an alley in the city, emerging into a garden and entering a forest. After running another 2 kilometers, she finally found a kind of cave with a lake, laughed, and crystals, where she used this place to calm down.
"What was that..." The person murmured with a bit of fear.
"He wasn't enchanted and almost caught me... I'll have to deal with him in another way, I can't let a pirate wander freely on this island." She continued talking to herself.
She lifted her cloak, and her two-colored hair fell out. This girl was a resident of this country since there had been a disaster, a possessor of the uta uta no mi, she has abilities that not only enhance her singing and convey her feelings through her voice but can confuse senses, create illusions, and even create an illusory world.
She ended up falling in love with this country after being abandoned by her father. And always defended this place, as always, trying to get rid of pirates that enter the kingdom, she can sense their auras, although not seeing the real extent of them, she can see how a person may have done bad things and Luffy was no different, he did what he wanted, and he ended up threatening, stealing, and killing as he progressed on his journey, as he always said he was not a good person.
When Luffy entered the city, Uta, who was strolling hidden, saw his aura and wanted to rid of that person she noticed was a pirate hidden in a cloak, approaching him, she began to sing, to lead him into a corner and get rid of him, but it seems this one was quite different from the previous ones, he not only resisted her singing with some difficulty but also pursued her, making the girl have to flee and use her powers to aid her escape.
She had no idea that there was someone above her at that moment, watching her closely. Meanwhile, the same girl sat down after breathing a sigh of relief in front of a small lake, hoping she wouldn't encounter that person again and started to sing a small melody to ease her racing heart.
She sang something that reminded her of a brief time she lived in the East Blue, where she had met two brothers, one of whom had made a promise with a childhood passion. Her melody turned sad, and all the plants seemed to shrink around her with it.
She liked to think of that time as something happy, but it soon became something sad, as she had lost everything shortly after and would never return to that place or see those people again, her father, and Luffy.
"Why do I still sing this song when it brings me so many thoughts of everything I've lost. I miss it so much..." She murmured, stopping her singing as she wiped her tears and looked at her reflection in the water.
"I still remember this song when you liked to sing it for me and my sister. I miss that time a lot too... Uta." A voice emerged behind the girl, and she turned around alarmed, seeing that it was the person who was wearing the same cloak that chased her, but his face was no longer covered.
"No... you!?" Surprise and disbelief took over her expression. Before her stood Luffy, no longer the boy from her memories, but the man she had seen in the newspapers in recent months.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you, Uta..." Luffy commented, looking at the woman he hadn't seen in more than 10 years, a girl he had always loved since he was a child and became furious when Shanks told him she had died, where the whole incident with the Yonkou losing his arm happened.
"Is it really you?!" She murmured with a broken heart, letting more tears stream down her eyes.
"Yes, Shanks told me you died more than 10 years ago, but I'm glad that never happened..." Luffy opened a small melancholic smile seeing his old friend.
