'Elegia is amazing!'

That thought had run through Yamato's head after the ship had docked at the port and they'd been greeted by the Islands King: Gordon who was happy to hear that they were decent people despite being pirates so they were welcomed. Immediately Yamato and Uta had gone off and explored the Island of Music and they'd seen so many things from the different places to the people it was all amazing to the diva and self-proclaimed samurai.

"This place is amazing huh Yamato?"

"Yeah. I've never seen so much music stuff before. You must like this more than me, Uta."

Utas eyes became yellow stars.

"Of course! What musician wouldn't love it here? I've seen and learned more about music in a couple of hours than I thought possible."

Yamato was happy for Uta as the musician had found something to make her happy which resulted in Yamato hugging Uta.

"I'm happy for you Uta."

"Thanks, Yamato."

The two sisters hugged it out before they heard their names being called.

"Uta! Yamato!"

The two girls turned around and saw the source of the voice calling to them was Shanks who had come looking for the girls after they went off on their own.

"There you two are. I was getting a little worried when you two just took off like that but you just wanted to see the sights huh."

Both girls looked away before looking down at the ground as they apologized.

"Sorry, Shanks."

"Sorry, Shanks-kichi."

"Nah it's okay. I'm just glad you two didn't get into any trouble. Now come on we've got the rest of the day to explore the Island before nightfall and go to the event."

Both girls looked at each other in confusion before looking back at Shanks.

"Event?"

"Yeah. The king Gordon invited us to the concert hall and when we told them you were our diva they wanted to hear you sing."

At hearing this Uta's purple eyes became stars at the notion.

"They wanna hear me sing?! Really?!"

"Yeah."

"Oh boy! I can't wait!"

"I'm happy for you Uta!"

Yamato hugged Uta and she reciprocated the hug as the bond between the two of them always made Shanks smile.

"Let's get going then. We can explore some more of Elegia then head to the concert hall towards the evening."

"Okay, Shanks/Shanks-kichi."

Uta and Yamato responded to their captain and so the trio went on their way.

The day turned to evening as the sky of Eleiga was now colored with the gorgeous colors of red, orange, and pink giving those on the Island of Music a great view. Uta walked through the outskirts of Elegia looking for Shanks and Yamato as said they were going to go train and Uta wanted to see what kind of training it was. Uta kept walking until she found a clearing and saw her dad and sister to her surprise Yamato's club was off to the side and she was wearing a blindfold while trying to dodge Shanks strikes with a stick.

'What're they doing and why is Yamato wearing a blindfold?'

Uta watched the scene unfold as Yamato decently dodged Shanks' strikes until she received a clean hit to the side of her face knocking her down.

"Aw, man. I thought I had it."

Yamato removed the blindfold and had a sad expression.

"Don't look so down Yamato. You've improved with your Observation Haki a lot since we started."

"Does that mean I'm ready to learn Conquer's Haki yet?"

"No. I already told you why you can't use that yet. Why are you so eager to learn that?"

Yamato looked down and pushed her pointer fingers together.

"W-Well…I wanna learn Haki as fast as I can so I can help everyone on the crew better but also so I can better keep Uta safe. She's my big sister but she can't defend herself so it falls on me to keep her safe."

Utas' eyes went wide at Yamatos' proclamation to wanna protect her which made her embarrassed but happy at the same time.

Shanks' after hearing Yamato's declaration couldn't help but openly laugh making Yamato pout and pound her fists against his legs.

"Shanks'-kichi! It's not funny! Stop laughing!"

Shanks kept laughing until he kneeled and put a hand on Yamatos' head.

"I'm not laughing at your reasons Yamato they're admirable but it's funny that you have such a big proclamation at eight years old."

Yamato pounded her chest.

"Of course. I, Kozuki Oden will always protect those important to me."

Shanks chuckled.

"I see. Though we should get going after all I'm sure Uta would want her sister to hear her sing. Right, Uta?"

Uta flinched from her hiding spot before coming out and revealing herself.

"Uta. I thought I told you it's not polite to eavesdrop on other people's conversations."

"I know Shanks and I'm sorry but I got curious as to what you guys do all the time during training."

Shanks and Yamato shared a brief look at each other before Yamato asked Uta one simple question.

"Well, why didn't you just ask us? I would've told you and so would Shanks'."

Uta turned bright red as she clearly hadn't thought of just being straightforward with them and as much as Shanks wanted to tease his daughter they had to get going.

"Come on you two. We can question Utas' thinking later."

"Shanks! You dummy!"

Uta followed her father with Yamato following the two of them right behind.

"All right! Let's go!"

As the trio headed towards the concert hall a question popped into Utas' head.

"Hey, Yamato. How long have you and Shanks been trying to train this Haki stuff ?"

Yamato thought about it for a second before she remembered.

"Me and Shanks'-kichi have been training my Haki for the past couple of months while we've been sailing."

"Oh…Okay."

Elegia adored Uta well to be more accurate they adored her wonderful singing voice but since the girl and her voice were a package deal they adored them both. The entire night so far had been Uta singing for the people and them praising her while the rest of the Red-haired pirates were enjoying the festivities with Yamato eating the food that was provided while watching Uta sing.

"Man these guys sure do like hearing Uta sing but I don't get the big deal. We hear her sing all the time."

"While that's true Yamato but not everyone has heard her sing plus I'd imagine the voice of our diva would be popular in a kingdom full of musicians."

"I guess but I don't like that they're overworking Uta by having her sing a bunch."

"Like I said before, these people haven't heard her sing and they enjoy her voice."

"Hmph."

Yamato looked away pouting but she relented and decided she'd hang back and let people enjoy Uta singing. As the night went on Gordon the king of Elegia praised Uta for her singing and then made her an offer.

"Magnificent! Your voice is a gift to the world! There's no shortage of experts, instruments, and music here. We would love for you to join us in Elegia! The entire country would welcome you!"

After hearing that Yamato walked out and got some air on a balcony overlooking the Island. She sighed as she watched the Island sparkle from all the lights.

'*sigh* Uta would like it here they have everything she'd need plus she looked really happy seeing everything and singing for all those people but if she leaves I'd be alone.'

"No! No! No! Don't think like that Yamato. This is about Uta, not you don't be selfish. Still…"

Yamato sighed again as she leaned her head down on the railing until she heard footsteps behind her making the Oni turn around to see Uta.

"You okay? You just up and left the concert hall."

"Huh? Oh don't worry about me Uta I'm fine."

"I don't believe you. You don't want me to stay right?"

"What?"

"You can't fool me Yamato I saw the look on your face when Gordan-san gave me the offer to stay. I can always tell him no."

"Don't do that! Don't give up on your dream just to make me happy! If I made you do that I'd never live with myself."

"Why not? I know how lonely you'd be without me on the ship! Besides you're my sister I can't just leave you by yourself!"

"It's not about me and yeah I'd be sad but I'd rather you be happy and follow your goal. I've what your singing does Uta. You make everyone on the crew so happy when you sing and you made everyone here happy. I lived in The Land of Wano for 8 years and it suffered with no joy under my terrible father but when you sing you bring joy to everyone. I can talk to Shanks and we can come and get you when you become a great singer."

Uta clenched her fists in anger.

"Stupid! I'm the musician of the Red-Haired Pirates' and your big sister! If you're asking me to choose between staying here and learning about music and leaving…leaving you guys…"

Uta started shaking as tears began to build up in her eyes and seeing this Yamato hugged her.

"Hey, Hey. I'm sorry. Okay then. I'll talk to Shanks-Kichi and ask for us to leave in the morning. After all I Oden would enjoy hearing your songs during our voyages than hearing Benn and Yasopp try and sing."

Uta then imagined those two trying to replace her and sing for the crew which caused her to start laughing and Yamato joined in with both sisters laughing unaware Shanks had followed Uta and overheard their entire conversation making him smile.

"Hmph. Okay then."

The night progressed as the hours ticked away as word of Uta leaving tomorrow with Shanks and his crew the musicians of Elegia realized it'd be their last chance so they had Uta sing non-stop and because they wanted the entire kingdom to hear her voice so they broadcasted her singing to the entire kingdom. However, to the confusion of Gordan and the joy from Shanks Yamato stood guard in front of Uta wearing comical black sunglasses. Where she had gotten them was anyone's guess but she was letting people pass as they had to show the songs they wanted Uta to sing and then Yamato would let them pass but unbeknownst to everyone Utas' singing had awakened a long since buried score of music that was sealed deep under the castle and its name was: Tot Musica. After singing for a while Uta had taken a break with Yamato behind her when the two of them stumbled across the sheet music sitting on one of the couches.

"Huh? Who left this sheet music here?"

"I don't know Uta but are you sure you wanna keep singing? You need to take a break when we travel tomorrow."

"I know Yamato. This'll be my last song then I'll go rest up."

"Okay, Uta. Got it."

Uta then picked up the sheet music took a deep breath and sang the sheet music it happened so fast that no one could react. In a flash of black and red lighting followed by musical notes, Uta was swallowed up as her Sing-Sing fruit had set Tot Musica free. The demon of music having successfully absorbed Uta unleashed a massive assault on Eliga destroying everything in its path as buildings were reduced to flaming piles of rubble and fire while the people were either disintegrated by the laser from the demon or killed by the fire.

"Snap out of it, Uta! Don't let him take you!"

The Red-Haired Pirates immediately sprung into action to save her Yamato included despite their current best efforts they weren't making a dent in the thing. Yamato also tried to swing at the demon but due to her size Tot Musica barely registered she was there but she didn't give up after all she felt somewhat responsible for this.

"Give her back! Give Uta back right now!"

Yamato kept swinging but she was blown back however she got back up and kept trying. She felt responsible for this after all if she had stopped Uta from singing that stupid music this wouldn't be happening.

"It's my fault. So I'm going to rescue you. Hang on Uta!"

Yamato kept up her assault with the rest of the crew but it was difficult.

"Give her back right now!"

Then it happened with a shout Yamato unknowingly released a burst of Conquers Haki due to her worry and stress which stunned Tot Musica and gave Shanks the opening he needed to slay the demon as it let out a shrill cry before disappearing as Yamato saw Uta falling and ended up catching her.

"Uta! Oof!"

Yamato caught Uta albeit she crashed into some rubble but that didn't matter as Uta was now safe. The hard part was finding Shanks and getting off this Island however before she could a few feet away Yamato saw the Tot Musica sheet music and her orange eyes narrowed in anger as she picked up before walking over to some of the flames that were still going and she then tossed the sheet music into the fire.

"This is for hurting Uta."

The sheet music burned as the scream of Tot Musica was heard Yamato turned away as he picked up Uta and carried her back to Shanks however what Yamato didn't see was that four black orbs rose from the sheet music and then scattered themselves across the Grand Line.

"Come on Uta. Let's head back."

With that Yamato carried the exhausted Uta back to Shanks and the rest of the crew.

"Where's Uta and Yamato?"

"We don't know captain. We haven't found them since you beat that demon."

Shanks and Benn kept looking around as fast they could as they had to leave with the navy getting closer to the now destroyed and ruined Island.

"Captain. What're we gonna do about Uta? We know this mess wasn't her fault but sooner or later when the navy finds out…"

Lucky Roo said trying to get his point across to Shanks however the captain of the Red-Haired Pirates' had made up his mind.

"I know Roo but I'm not leaving Uta here alone. She's gonna come back with us risks be damned."

"Captain! The navy's getting closer!"

"We know Yasopp but like the captain said we're not leaving without Yamato and Uta."

Yasopp and Hongo started a little back and forth.

"Shanks. This is my fault so I'll tell the navy I did this."

"No don't bother. Tell the navy it was us. We're pirates after all."

Gordon was surprised but then he nodded his head in agreement.

"I see. I will keep Uta and Yamato's names out of my mouth."

"I appreciate it, Gordon."

Then that's when everyone heard shouting heading their way.

"Shanks-kichi! Everyone we're here!"

The Red-Haired pirates, Shanks, and Gordon turned and saw Yamato running towards them with the exhausted Uta on her back.

"They made it."

*Screech*

"Thank goodness."

Bonk Punch, Monster, and Hongo were all relieved to see the two kids of the crew had made it back okay. With that, the Red-Haired Pirates' left Elegia their ship full of treasure as well as Uta and Yamato with marines hot on their tail as they left behind a burning Elegia due to Tot Musica.
