Synopsis
The most famous singer in the world is Uta. Uta, whose voice has been dubbed “otherworldly” and is known for hiding her identity when performing, will now go on stage to play live for the first time. The voice that the entire world has been waiting for is ready to echo as the space fills with all different types of Uta fans—excited pirates, the Navy keeping a close eye on everything, and the Straw Hats led by Luffy, who came to enjoy her thunderous performance. She is Red-Haired Shanks’ “daughter,” a startling revelation for the plot.
