3rd POV

"Uta san is going to end  the world? How?! What was that paper she was holding?"

Gordon paused a bit before he explained, "That sheet of music is no ordinary sheet, it contains a demon, a powerful one sealed away long ago."

He gritted his teeth, "I should have destroyed it when I had the chance, but as a lover of music, I couldn't bring myself to destroy it!!!"

"She has a demon with her...?" Gen's face paled, "But it's still sealed right? How is she going to release it?"

"With her Devil Fruit." Gordon said, "Her Devil Fruit, the Uta Uta no Mi is the only thing that can release that demon back into the world!"

"Her Devil Fruit? So she does have one. Is that why she can do all those crazy stuff?"

"In a way yes, her fruit allows her to steal the consciousness of anyone who listens to her singing and transport them into a virtual world."

"Wait..." Gen said as realization dawned on his, "Does that mean..."

"Yes, this isn't the real world. This the Uta world created by her Devil Fruit."

"What?!!" Gen cried, "Then this isn't real life?!!"

"In this world, Uta is free to do anything she pleases. Your body is probably still in the real world along with all the other people that listened to her singing." Gordon said.

"How do we get out of here?!" Gen asked as he nervously looked around at his surroundings, now knowing that non of them were real.

"The Uta World exists only when Uta is awake, when she falls asleep, the souls shes stolen return to their bodies. But seeing that still hasn't happened yet, I suspect she found a way to keep herself awake."

"Then how can we stop her? We're stuck here and she's out there!" Gen asks.

"Yes, but there is someone who can."

"Huh?"

"Shanks..." Gordon murmured, "If Shanks arrives, he can stop her in reality!"

(Meanwhile, out at sea)

Hundreds of ships were sailing towards Elegia, the white and blue flag of the marines fluttering on top of them.

"Reports are coming in from the forecastle decks: No sign of the enemy in the vicinity. Repeat, no sign of enemies in the vicinity."

"Make sure we haven't been followed."

"Armed scouting team one has landed and is moving through the ruins. No sign of the enemy."

"Armed scouting team two is continuing the search, but no trace of the enemy so far."

"Mission is underway, but unable to confirm enemy presence. Awaiting further orders."
