I have the Flame-Flame Fruit, I'm invincible!

“Him,” Corey recalled his brief encounter with Dick.

He possesses immense strength, a handsome appearance, exceptional intelligence, godlike abilities, a chivalrous nature that helps those in need, and an open-mindedness that accepts his own good intentions.

Upright yet not pedantic. Kind yet sharp-witted.

After thinking for a moment, Corey summarized it in one word.

"A hero."

hero?

Kaya silently memorized the word.

Are they heroes in the story?

Chapter 31 Usopp, the Liar

Beside him, Usopp, with his long nose, watched Kaya and her family of three with curiosity.

"Hey, Kaya," Usopp greeted.

Because Yasopp had lived in Syrup Village for a while, Usopp knew that his father was a powerful pirate and that his mother was not dead.

Yasopp also taught Usopp a lot of sniping skills.

Therefore, Usopp's confidence increased considerably.

What follows is a love of boasting.

So what if he's the richest man?

My dad was a notorious pirate. I didn't say anything.

"Ah, Usopp, hello, what are you doing?" Corey stood in front of Kaya without making a sound.

It's best to avoid contact with the descendants of pirates.

"Haha, of course it's sniping practice," Usopp laughed.

"I just shot down three geese with a single shot."

"Oh? Impressive."

"That's natural. With my skill level, shooting down 5 with one slingshot is normal. I didn't perform well today, only 3. I wasn't in good form."

Corey: ...

Why is this getting more and more outrageous?

Thinking about it, Corey became even more convinced that he absolutely must not contact Usopp.

Now imagine the Jesus cloth, which is nowhere to be found.

How about we move?

Kore was deep in thought.

Usopp was getting a little annoyed.

To put it bluntly, Usopp is still a child right now, and what he cares about most is saving face.

Displaying strength in front of beautiful members of the opposite sex is a male instinct.

Moreover, Yasopp's strength gave him great confidence.

He is no longer some villager without any backing; he is a great pirate, a world-renowned sniper, and the son of Yasopp.

The treasures left by Yasopp were enough to allow Usopp and his mother to live a wealthy life.

So Usopp stood there, wanting to see what Corey and the others were up to. Head held high, like a spirited warrior charging forward, his long, pointed nose a battle horn.

Soon, a magnificent warship arrived. It was 121 meters long, had four decks, was 40 meters wide, and carried 80 cannons, along with 500 solemn-looking crew members.

This display of force immediately stunned Corey.

What's going on?

Wasn't Dick a poor man who lost both his parents? When did he get such a magnificent and imposing warship?

Even if Corey knew that Dick would become a great man and a prominent figure on the high seas, wasn't it too fast?

If Kore is still acceptable.

Usopp was filled with anxiety.

Could my own father defeat this mighty warship? Or could the legendary Red-Haired Pirates defeat it?

This is a warship, not a pirate ship.

Usopp wasn't sure.

Should, maybe, perhaps?

Da da da.

One by one, the crew members disembarked.

Usopp counted, and there were 80 people who disembarked alone. If you include the sailors on board, there were at least 300.

Usopp's confidence quickly waned.

Even if your own father can take on a hundred people, wouldn't it be a bit difficult for him to defeat 300?

“Welcome, welcome,” Corey greeted him warmly.

Dick smiled too.

Interacting with vermin like rats and Thurua III makes even the air stink.

People like Corey are better.

The suit was impeccably tailored, with clean lines and a perfect cut that made him look elegant and dignified. Compared to his own undershirt and trousers, which had improved considerably but were still a bit rough, Usopp silently took two steps back.

When I noticed Dick's handsome face and confident demeanor, I realized that it was an inner confidence that came from within.

Usopp felt ashamed of his appearance, and even his pointed nose seemed listless.

Sure enough, I am far inferior to him.

Usopp?

Dick smiled slightly; he always repaid kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge. Yasopp had helped him a lot.

Dick learned a lot about Observation Haki.

Although Yasopp was a terrible father.

Just then, someone carried a box of gifts to Usopp.

The money wasn't much, but there were all sorts of local specialties. There was also a video phone bug that could contact Yasopp.

"Me?" Usopp stared blankly.

“Ah, this is for you. I was once taken care of by the senior Yasopp, and he helped me a lot,” Dick said, giving Yasopp a great deal of face in his words.

"This is my way of thanking you."

A tremendous surprise filled his heart, and feelings of pride and elation kept pounding into Usopp's mind.

Seeing the envious looks from those around him, including the island's richest man, Corey, filled him with surprise, greatly satisfying Usopp's pride.

Indeed, his father was a brave sea warrior and a great pirate.

Usopp straightened his back, his nose standing out again.

What a good person, such a good person.

Usopp felt deeply grateful to Dick.

If there's a preference rating, Dick's preference rating will be maxed out immediately.

Dick looked around. It was an ordinary island, except for the exquisite and luxurious villa in the center of the island.

Of course, considering Kore's wealth, the villa is actually just average.

Kaya silently observed Dick, comparing him to the heroic knight in the story.

I don't know about the others, but do they know how to repay kindness?

Kaya's face grew even redder, and the room grew colder and colder.

Kore was also relieved.

If they can repay kindness even to pirates, then what will their attitude be towards other people? Needless to say.
