"The one just now. Is it sheet music?! ”

"Sheet music with your own consciousness?!"

In the slightly dark underground library, Ji Guoyuan turned his head and stared in the direction where the pages flew away, and his expression was a little more solemn.

There are a lot of strange things in this world, and "dead things" with their own consciousness are still rare after all. Without the idea of staying in the underground library, Ji Guoyuan got up in a hurry, ready to rush in the direction where the pages flew away.

At this moment, he was already recalling something in his mind, and the page that flew out of the dark room was probably the culprit who destroyed the country of music!

Banquet hall.

Utta, who had just come off the stage, sat alone on the bench and was in a very good mood. Performing in front of so many audiences, although this experience is only once, it has already made Uta who loves the stage deeply like that feeling.

And after coming off the stage, Uta could feel a huge change in the attitude of the people around her.

If before that, others loved her because of her cute appearance and her innocent character. Then after the performance, people loved her more for her beautiful singing voice and outstanding talent.

Children, they all like to be praised by others, and Uta at this time is also a little fluttering when he is praised by others.

Uta sat on the bench, swaying her legs slightly, holding a glass of juice in her hands, and snorting. Her eyes fell on Shanks and Gordon, who were chatting on the balcony.

The two of them were chatting about how to cultivate Uta in the future.

Shanks has caused Gordon a lot of trouble, but Gordon himself is the kind of person who is obsessed with art, and after seeing Utta's outstanding talent with his own eyes, those troubles have been left behind him, and now there is only one thought left in his mind, that is, he wants to train Uta to become a world-class singer.

In order to achieve this goal, Gordon hopes that Uta will stay here and receive a musical education from an early age.

But in Shanks's position, he is unwilling to let the young Uta leave his side, such a young child is not able to take care of himself, he is really not at ease.

It's not that he doesn't worry about Gordon's personality, no matter who it is, Shanks actually won't be at ease.

"Shanks, Uta's talent is really, really strong."

"The path of music is a little different from other paths, and the education you received when you are a child can largely determine the upper limit of this person."

"And more importantly, Uta wants to be a singer."

"You know, everybody goes through a period of voice change, and if she doesn't train it properly, her voice will be buried."

"I beg of you, to keep Uta here, and if you are really not at ease, you can visit her from time to time."

When Gordon and Shanks spoke, his eyes also glanced at Uta in the room, and then turned his head to look at Shanks, his eyes showing a deep look of anticipation.

"This"

"Gordon, let me think about it, okay?!"

"My original intention of coming here was actually just to increase Uta's knowledge and satisfy her interests."

"Even if Uta is really talented, and she still wants to be a good singer in the future, I plan to let her grow up and study seriously."

"You say that all of a sudden. I wasn't mentally prepared either. ”

"I'll ask Uta for Uta in a moment."

"I want to let Uta decide for herself what she wants to do in the future!"

Shanks had a look of distress on his face, and he was going to put the decision back in the hands of Uta himself.

Hearing Shanks say this, Gordon also nodded happily, and then raised his wine glass with a smile and gestured to Shanks. Seeing Gordon's happy look, Shanks also had a bright smile on his face.

Regardless of Uta's decision, the fact that Uta has musical talent still makes Shanks very happy. Children have a talent for chasing their dreams, and what could be more enjoyable than this?

The world is very cruel.

Chasing dreams is a luxury.

It is not enough to have a strong will, the determination and perseverance to work hard for your dreams.

Talent is quite important.

"I want to thank you anyway, Gordon!"

Shanks raised his glass and clinked glasses with Gordon.

While the two were chatting, a few yellowed pages appeared silently in Uta's hand. At this time, Uta was bored looking at Shanks and Gordon outside the house. Just as he was about to get up and find a place to put down the empty cup in his hand, he suddenly noticed the quaint pages that appeared beside him.

"What is this?"

"Sheet music?!"

Uta saw the sheet music that appeared in his hand, and his face was full of curiosity.

He casually put down his drink cup, took a few pages of paper in his hand, and examined it carefully. Uta has learned some music theory knowledge, although the learning is superficial, but it is already a musical notation, idle and bored, she looked at the special score in her hand, but also came to the interest, humming casually.

A clear singing voice emanated from Uta's mouth, and an indescribable aura of terror enveloped the entire banquet hall as the song came out.

"Hum—"

There was a low roar in the air.

Shanks, who was chatting with Gordon, seemed to feel something, and after a pause, he looked at the banquet hall with a stunned face, and his eyes swept over Uta's body, and he was suddenly shocked that the surrounding environment had changed dramatically.

The room they were in had changed dramatically.

This is a splendid colorful world, under Shanks's feet, the colored halo flows, it is impossible to tell whether it is the ground or the sky, looking up, all the people in the banquet hall appear in this colorful world.

In this world, as far as the eye can see, the sky and the ground are the same flow of colored light, which makes people's sense of "space" and "distance" become unreal.

"What's wrong? What is this place? ”

"What happened? Aren't we having a banquet? ”

"What the hell is this. What's going on?! ”

The red-haired pirates and the guests attending the banquet were all looking around blankly, unaware of what was going on.

Shanks was also observing the world quickly, and suddenly found that Uta's figure disappeared from his sight.

"Mingming. Right in front of my eyes! ”

"Everyone in the banquet hall is here, why is Uta not the only one?!"

"Is it Uta's fruit ability?"

Shanks had a slight doubt on his face, but just as people were looking at the space they were in, a terrifying sense of oppression suddenly fell on everyone.

This is a terrifying pressure that is different from the domineering color of the overlord, which makes people feel afraid, and people have no time to find the source of this terrifying sense of oppression.

A spatial vortex suddenly appeared in the void in the distance.

Behind the whirlpool, there is an endless, deep darkness.

And in just a few breaths, the spatial vortex is still expanding, and at the same time, a melody inexplicably reverberates in this space.

The spatial vortex soon grew to a diameter of nearly 100 meters, and at the same time, the pressure exerted on everyone was also increasing, and in the spatial vortex, there was also a terrifying aura coming out.

"Boss, it looks like something is coming out!"

"What the hell is this. What's going on? ”

The red-haired pirates gathered behind Shanks at this moment, and Jesus Bu seemed to feel something, and said to Shanks with a solemn expression.

The rest of the crew also stared at the spatial vortex in the distance, their faces full of solemnity.

And Gordon, when he heard this melody in the space, seemed to think of something, and sat down on the ground with his body slumped, muttering:

"How so?!"

"Why is this happening?"

"It's over. It's all over."

Shanks saw Gordon's decadent face, grabbed Gordon's arm, and roared, "Cheer up, what's over?" ”

"This should be some kind of Devil Fruit ability, we can get out!"

As Shanks spoke, a giant shadow emerged from the spatial vortex in the distance.

It was a large humanoid figure with no lower body, large yellow hair and a short beard.

His face was white, with a long nose, a mouth full of fangs, and a grinning all the time.

His right eye is a black hole, and his left eye is a glowing red X. He wears a top hat on his head, a black cloak, and a flaming skull floating around his neck, like a necklace.

It doesn't look like a human creature at all.

But the moment this creature appeared, everyone could clearly feel the terrifying oppression emanating from that creature.

Some ordinary people saw such a monster coming out of the spatial whirlpool, and they were already trembling and slumped to the ground.

"Blame. Monster!! ”

"It's a monster !!"

The crowd scattered and fled, cries of terror echoing through the colorful space. It was also the first time Shanks and his crew had seen such a creature, and everyone's faces changed and their eyes were shocked.

"What's that?" Beckman was smoking a cigarette, his mouth slightly open, and he was also a little out of shape.

Shanks looked at the strange creature that suddenly appeared without saying a word, his eyes full of worry. At this time, instead of worrying about his situation, he was worried about Uta's safety.

It happened very suddenly, and it was strange, and just now, Shanks had already examined the left and right people present with his excellent memory.

According to his judgment, the people in the banquet hall should have been dragged into this space.

But strangely, Uta's figure did not appear here.

This anomaly made Shanks unusually worried.

"Totemjika"

"This is the Demon King of Songs, Totm Jika!!"

At Shanks' side, Gordon looked at the massive creature that came out of the spatial vortex, his body trembling slightly, and recognized the other.

"Bang !!"

The door of the banquet hall was slammed open, and the figure of Ji Guoyuan Yi walked into the banquet hall from the dim corridor, looking at the scene in the banquet hall, frowning.

In the huge ballroom, wine and food were spilled all over the floor.

All the guests attending the banquet fell asleep. Jikunichi's gaze swept over these people, and he soon spotted some members of the red-haired pirates among the unconscious crowd.

"It's not just ordinary people, it's Beckman."

Ji Guoyuan walked into the banquet hall with a step, carefully examining everyone, and his heart sank slightly. He noticed the balcony, where Shanks and Gordon were both sitting on the floor with their backs to the guardrail.

Ji Guoyuan looked around the banquet hall, and his eyes quickly fell on Uta on a bench somewhere in the hall.

At this time, Uta was sitting upright on a stool, holding a yellowed ancient score in both hands, his eyes were misty and there was no focus.

Uta hadn't fallen asleep like the others, but she wasn't awake at all.

Uta's face was blank, and her lips opened and closed rhythmically, but no sound came from Uta's mouth.

Ji Guoyuan did not move the unconscious people on the ground, but paced in front of Uta and slowly squatted down, looking at Uta at this time.

"Is it the ability of the Uta Devil Fruit?"

"With Shanks' domineering, if he wanted to, he wouldn't be affected by Uta's ability at all."

"And"

Ji Guoyuan said secretly in his heart, his eyes also fell on the yellowed ancient score in Uta's hand, and he reached out to grab it, but he couldn't pull the score out of Uta's hand.

Without hesitation, a golden flame suddenly appeared on the tip of Ji Guoyuan's fingers, and the flame suddenly ignited the score, and the center of the score was quickly burned out of a big hole by the golden flame.

But the strange thing is that there is obviously a huge vacancy in the score, but Uta has not recovered from that half-asleep and half-awake state, still with empty eyes, blank face, and silently chanting something.

And the rest of the people in the banquet hall showed no signs of waking up.

"Am I misjudged?"

"There's no way to bring these people to their senses by destroying the score?"

The golden flame quickly vanished after burning the very central part of the score. Ji Guoyuan muttered, stood up slightly, and looked down at Uta.

In the next second, the overlord color domineering energy emanated from Jiguo Yuanyi's body and applied it to Uta's body.

However, Uta didn't seem to have "felt" the domineering spirit of the overlord who succeeded the country's Yuanyi, and he was still like that, and he was not moved at all.

Seeing this scene, Ji Guoyuan finally realized that things didn't seem to be as simple as he imagined

His face changed slightly, and Ji Guoyuanyi also reached out and pressed it on the long knife on his waist, and after a long time, Jiguo Yuanyi's hand was finally removed from the handle of the knife.

The Demon King of Songs - Totemjika.

Legend has it that this is a monster summoned by humans from another time and space with a singing voice. Totembika can manifest in the "Dream of Song", and when Totmgika's power develops to a certain level, Totemjika's ability can affect the display.

The score of the Demon King of Summoning Songs, which is divided into three movements.

Each movement represents a different stage of the Totembika, and the different stages of the Totemjika have different abilities and forms.

In the first movement, which is a summoning, Totemjika is able to manifest in the "Dream of Song".

By the time of the second movement, Totmjika's power is able to seep out of the dream, manifest itself in reality, and bring devastating disaster to reality.

By the end of the third movement, Totmgika's power will be at its peak, and at the same time, Totmgika will be completely unfettered, immortal, and unsipid.

Shanks listened quietly to Gordon's story, and his face became quite ugly.

Because in his perspective, Totmujika's body is changing rapidly, and Shanks knows that the other party is transforming towards the "second stage".

The power escaping from Totmujika's body is getting stronger and stronger, and the aura is becoming more and more terrifying.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

A loud bang suddenly came from Totemjika's body, and not long after, the figure of Jesus Cloth quickly fell from the sky and fell back to Shanks's side:

"Boss, our attack is useless!"

Shortly after Jesus' return to Shanks, the rest of the crew rushed over with bad news.

Just now, the Red-Haired Pirates tried to kill Totemjika and stop him from continuing to change, but so far, it seems that nothing has happened.

"It's useless."

"Totmjika can only be defeated in the second stage."

"His essence is a powerful demon that exists in both reality and dreams."

"Legend has it that he must be defeated in both reality and dreams in order to succeed."

"We're all trapped in a dream, and we can't get out."

"It's dead, and it's not just us, the world will be destroyed!"

Gordon hugged his head and said with pain on his face, and his words also silenced everyone in the red-haired pirates.

"Defeat from dreams and reality at the same time?!"

Shanks muttered, a glint in his eyes. And at this moment, a powerful overlord color domineering aura erupted from a certain void in the dream space.

Feeling the strong domineering, the corners of Shanks' mouth were slightly hooked, and he was suddenly relieved, and then smiled:

"Will the world be destroyed?!"

"Not necessarily, we still have a chance, don't we?!"

The real world.

The dome of the ballroom was blown away by an unknown force, and the stars were sprinkled in the night sky.

Ji Guoyuan stood beside Uta, looking up at the night sky.

Under the night sky, there was a spatial vortex, slowly revealing its shape, and a huge and sharp claw stretched out from the spatial vortex and grabbed the edge of the vortex.

The aura of terror instantly enveloped the entire island.

"The Demon King of Song. Is it? ”

"The myth really came to this world, and this outrageous thing happened in front of me."

"Lucky or unlucky?"

Muttering to himself, Ji Guoyuan slowly pulled out his long knife.
