Syrup Village, on the outer coast.
The Straw Hat Pirates slowly landed here.
"Finally we've reached the shore."
Zoro stretched his muscles.
After sailing on such a cramped little boat for so many days, his muscles and bones became numb.
"I think it's okay."
Uno smiled but said nothing.
The process of swimming in the sea and upgrading Conqueror's Haki is wonderful. After obtaining the Born for the Sea (Super Gold) entry and becoming the darling of the sea,
Even if you are sailing on a small and cramped boat on the sea, you won't feel uncomfortable at all.
"Who is as good a swimmer as you are?"
Zoro heard this and looked at Uno with a twitching mouth.
Zoro watched Uno swimming in the sea and went into the sea to compete with him, but of course he was defeated miserably.
Uno swam for a considerable part of the voyage.
"Go in from here, and you'll reach the small village."
Nami held the nautical chart and pointed to the ramp ahead.
"So, can we eat meat now? Meat!"
Luffy excitedly rushed to Nami's side.
"Can you please think less about meat?"
Nami dodged Luffy, who started drooling at the thought of meat.
"There should be a bar too, so we can have a nice drink."
Zoro smiled as well.
"You guys are really..."
Nami's mouth twitched.
"Thank you for your hard work, Nami."
Uno looked at Nami and smiled.
"I am reading."
Nami was suddenly touched.
Look at Luffy and Zoro; one only knows how to eat meat, and the other only knows how to drink.
Only Uno remembered her good seamanship.
"But it seems that going to that village is not so smooth."
Uno looked at the grass on the hillside and smiled faintly.
"Hmm? It is indeed the presence of a human."
Zoro's eyes narrowed, and the Wado Ichimonji was slightly unsheathed.
"Where?"
Luffy looked around for someone.
"Danger!"
Zoro suddenly yelled.
Then, a rain of marbles hit Luffy's feet, making Luffy scramble to dodge.
"Swish! Swish!"
Then, many pirate flags with skulls painted on them rose from the grass.
"Huh? That's amazing!"
Luffy looked at the pirate flags, which were small but had very Haki skulls painted on them, and he immediately shouted excitedly.
Luffy has always wanted his own pirate flag.
"Is this the time to admire others?"
Nami looked at Luffy speechlessly.
"Hahaha! I'm Usopp, the leader of the Great Pirates that reigns over this village! People praise me highly.
Call me 'Our Captain, Captain Usopp'!"
Under the highest pirate flag, a long-nosed young man stood there, pointing at his long nose and shouting.
Usopp was lying to the villagers in Syrup Village that pirates were coming.
As a result, just after finishing the fixed mission for the day, his "subordinate," Onionhead, brought news that he had seen the Pirates' ship.
After learning that there were only four pirates, Usopp brought his "subordinates," Pepperhead, Radishhead, and Onionhead, to set up an ambush in order to protect the village of Syrup from being invaded by the pirates.
When he heard about the Pirates, Luffy's excited smile suddenly disappeared, and his mouth turned down as he looked at Usopp.
"If you want to attack this village, I advise you to give up! Because my 80 million men will not let you go!"
Usopp continued to boast.
"Swish!"
As Usopp's trumpet fell, more pirate flags emerged from the grass.
"Sgei!!!"
Luffy, who believed everything others said, screamed loudly.
Seeing that the guy below believed it so easily, Usopp suddenly felt a little proud.
"Is it a lie?"
But the next moment, Nami's chuckle broke Usopp's complacency.
"Oh no! I've been found out!"
Usopp yelled while holding his head.
"You don't think that 80 million subordinates can fool people, do you?"
Uno looked at Usopp in amusement.
How many people are there in the entire East Blue?
"Damn it! The enemy has a military advisor!"
Usopp looked at Uno, holding his head and yelling.
"Eighty million may be a bit exaggerated, but I still have capable subordinates!"
Usopp quickly calmed himself down and pointed at the bushes behind him.
Those pirate flags moved up and down with the actions of Green Pepper, Radish, and Onion, creating the illusion that there were a lot of people.
"There are three of them."
Nami smirked.
"It's been discovered!"
"Run!"
The three children, Green Pepper Head, Radish Head, and Onion Head, were so scared that they ran out and ran away.
"Don't run!"
Usopp immediately cried out that something was wrong.
"Hahaha, you're so funny."
Luffy was now looking at Usopp and laughing.
"Don't underestimate me, you bastard! I am a man with a very strong sense of self-esteem!
Because of this, people call me 'Proud Usopp'!"
Usopp heard Luffy's laughter and suddenly became a little angry. He took out his slingshot and pointed it at Luffy.
When Luffy saw Usopp take out his weapon, his smile disappeared, and he pressed his straw hat down.
"As you saw just now, my slingshot skills are much better than ordinary pistols."
Usopp also hopes to drive these pirates away with words.
"Now that you've drawn your gun, you're risking your life."
Luffy raised his head slightly, and under his pressed straw hat, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
"Why?!"
Usopp was immediately frightened.
"I mean, this thing is not a toy. Now that you have drawn your gun, you are risking your life."
Luffy gave a classic villain look.
And Uno gave Zoro a look.
"Snort."
Zoro saw the look in Uno's eyes and immediately understood; then he placed his hand on the Wado Ichimonji, showing the blade, and looked at Usopp.
"The ones standing before you are real pirates."
Zoro also gave a wicked look.
"Are you ready to risk your life?"
Uno also showed an evil look, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a Haki arc.
Uno now possesses the aura of a strong man. Just standing here can make Pirates of Buggy's level feel that Uno is terrifyingly strong.
"!!!"
The terrifying feeling of oppression instantly overwhelmed Usopp.
"Bang!"
The pellets from Usopp's slingshot fell at his feet.
"As expected, the words and aura of real pirates are extraordinary. So impressive."
Usopp's forehead was covered in sweat.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
What confused Usopp was that the next moment Uno and the others looked at each other and burst into laughter.
"I learned it on the spot. I learned it from the words of Pirates Shanks, whom I respect."
Luffy held up his straw hat, smiling broadly.
"Shanks?! Do you know the big pirate Shanks?"
Usopp looked shocked.
"Yes, your father is Yasopp, right?"
Luffy then laughed.
"Why?!"
Usopp was so shocked that he rolled down the hill.
Uno, standing by, had a strange smile on his face. Usopp and Yasopp looked very similar, with a network of connections, and even Luffy remembered them clearly; it was a common practice in the Pirate King's world.
Then, Uno looked at Usopp.
Does Usopp have the entry you need?
