One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha
Chapter 23 Usopp the Liar
On the streets of Rolf.
A curly-haired boy with a long nose was running breathlessly through the entire town, shouting at the top of his lungs as he ran:
"Pirates...are here!!"
"Run, everyone!!"
Although he was out of breath from running, it did not cause the panic that was expected.
The windows on both sides of the street were tightly closed, and occasionally a few helpless sighs could be heard.
Seeing this, the boy stopped, a triumphant smile spreading across his face. He put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.
"Pirates... I was just kidding! Wahahaha!"
"clang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a frying pan flew out of one of the windows as if it had eyes, and hit the boy squarely on the back of the head.
"It hurts... Damn it!"
Usopp clutched his head, tears welling in his eyes from the pain.
"You liar!! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"
"Usopp! You bastard, you're pulling this trick again!"
"I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
As if awakened by the scream, the townspeople angrily pushed open their doors, grabbed brooms and rolling pins, and shouted at Usopp.
Faced with the townspeople's agitated anger, Usopp showed no fear; instead, he made a face and laughed heartily.
"Come on! Come on! If you've got the guts, grab me!"
"Don't run! Grab him!"
The angry crowd immediately swarmed forward.
But Usopp was clearly prepared for this situation.
Like a nimble monkey, he dodged left and right, relying on his familiarity with the terrain and his "escape skills" to successfully shake off the people chasing him.
A moment later, on a large tree on the edge of town.
Usopp lay comfortably on the thick tree trunk, watching the grumbling crowd leave in the distance, and let out a smug laugh.
"Hehe, catching me, Usopp, is still impossible."
"Ah! Captain Usopp!"
Just then, two childish voices came from under the tree.
"The Usopp Pirates are here!"
Usopp sat up and looked down, only to see two little devils wearing headscarves looking at him with adoration.
"Ah, it's green peppers and carrots, you've arrived."
Usopp said, nimbly leaping down from the tree trunk and striking a cool pose. Then he looked around, puzzled, and asked:
"Huh? Why are there only the two of you? Where did Onion go?"
No sooner had the words been spoken than a series of urgent shouts came from the end of the winding dirt road in the distance.
The three of them turned around.
"Ah, it's an onion!" Green pepper pointed to the small figure running wildly in the distance.
"What is he yelling about?" Carrot listened intently.
"Waaaaah, waaaaah, waaaaah!!"
As they got closer, the three of them finally heard what Onion was shouting.
"Oh no! Oh no! Pirates are here!!"
A moment later, Onion ran up to the three of them, panting.
He was covered in sweat, his face pale, and pointed behind him, saying:
"No, no! Captain Usopp! Pirates are here! Pirate ships flying the skull and crossbones flag... they're right on the North Coast!!"
"You're kidding, right? Onion."
Usopp paused for a moment, then patted Onion's shoulder with an admiring look.
"Not bad! You almost fooled me. Your acting deserves praise!"
"It's true! It's really true!!"
Onion was on the verge of tears, waving his arms frantically, "I saw it with my own eyes! It really was a pirate ship!"
Seeing Onion's terrified expression, Usopp's smile froze.
"Really?"
He was terrified, his legs began to tremble involuntarily, and his body instinctively retreated.
"Oh... um, I suddenly remembered I haven't fed my little turtle yet!"
With that, Usopp turned and ran, his speed astonishing.
"I have an urgent matter! I have to go back now!!"
"Huh?! They ran away!!"
The three little devils, Onion, Green Pepper, and Carrot, stared dumbfounded at their captain's retreating figure.
Onion couldn't help but shout, "Captain Usopp!! There are only four of them!! Didn't you always say you wanted to be a brave pirate?!"
"Creak—"
Upon hearing "four people" and "brave pirates," Usopp, who was running wildly, stopped in his tracks, his shoes kicking up a cloud of dust as they scraped the ground.
He stiffly turned his body, forcing out a confident smile.
"Haha... that was just a warm-up. North Coast, right? I accidentally went the wrong way."
Usopp wiped away his cold sweat and waved his hand:
"In that case, let's go take a look! Follow me! Usopp Pirates, attack!"
"yes!!"
The three little devils immediately widened their eyes and excitedly followed.
……
At this time, on the north coast.
As dusk approached, the distant sea surface seemed to be dyed with a layer of burning flames by the setting sun, shimmering in the sunlight.
"rustle……"
A sailboat adorned with a straw hat and skull flag slowly docked at the beach.
The four of them walked down the ladder.
Victor stepped onto the soft sand, took a deep breath of the earthy air, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Phew...land is still the most comfortable."
"Yes, after all, someone can't even swim at sea. Who is it?" Nami teased from behind.
"310 million Berry."
"You bastard!"
Victor emerged victorious in today's match.
"It's been so long since I've been ashore!!"
Luffy and Zoro were also standing on the beach, stretching vigorously, their joints cracking.
"Nami, is there a village up there?" Luffy asked, turning his head.
"Yes, according to the map, it's a small village called Sirob Village," Nami confirmed.
"Very good!"
Upon hearing that there was a village, Luffy's eyes instantly turned into fleshy shapes, and he immediately took off running up the slope.
"Then—meat! Meat! I want to eat meat!!"
"Luffy! Wait!"
Just then, Zoro suddenly looked at the bushes on the cliff in front of him, his brows furrowed, and his hand instantly rested on the hilt of his sword.
Luffy slammed on the brakes, stopped, and turned around: "Zoro? What's wrong?"
"There's danger," Zoro said in a deep voice, his eyes sharp.
"ah?!"
Upon hearing the danger, Nami screamed reflexively and darted behind Viktor, grabbing his clothes and peeking out half her head.
"Danger? There?"
"Don't even think about getting through here!!"
A loud shout suddenly came from above the cliff.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!"
Then a barrage of small stones rained down on Luffy.
"Wow wow wow!"
Luffy frantically dodged left and right, exclaiming, "What is that?! A bullet?"
Zoro frowned, reached out and caught one, then opened his palm to look at it: "A small pebble?"
Just as everyone was wondering, a rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes above.
Immediately afterwards, skull and crossbones flags rose from the bushes, densely packed, looking as if a vast army was lying in ambush behind them.
"Wow!!"
Instead of being afraid, Luffy's eyes widened, he waved his hands, and shouted excitedly:
"Wow! So many flags!"
"Hey, Luffy, is this the time to admire me?"
Nami hid behind Viktor, staring at the single-celled organism with a dark expression.
She then noticed that Victor's shoulders were also twitching slightly, and she couldn't help but look up and angrily say:
"What are you laughing at again!"
Viktor smiled and pointed upwards: "It's nothing, I just think this scene... is quite cute."
"Ahem!"
The voice echoed again from the cliff, this time carrying a forced air of authority.
"Hey! Pirates ahead! This is the territory of the great pirate captain—Usopp!!"
A figure with a long nose stood in the middle of the flag, arms crossed, looking down and shouting:
"For your own lives, I advise you to leave immediately! Otherwise..."
"Wow, that's amazing!!" Luffy was still completely oblivious, his eyes sparkling.
Nami, however, keenly sensed something.
She stepped out from behind Victor, squinted, and her gaze landed precisely on the lower half of the man who called himself "Captain Usopp."
There, his legs were trembling like a leaf.
Nami curled her lips into a devilish smile.
"You're kidding, right?"
This seemingly casual remark instantly shattered the aura surrounding the cliff.
"Ah!! We've been found out?! When?!"
Usopp screamed in panic, clutching his head with both hands, looking utterly frustrated.
Nami laughed and crossed her arms: "Look, he said he was found out himself."
"Oops, I accidentally said it! Damn it!" Usopp covered his mouth in annoyance.
"What?! Is it fake?" Luffy exclaimed in shock, as if he had been greatly deceived.
"You just realized?! You idiot!" Nami couldn't help but yell at him.
Seeing that his lie had been exposed, Usopp gritted his teeth and stubbornly refused to admit defeat.
He put on a fierce expression again, pointed down and shouted:
"Don't be so arrogant!! I'm a man who has... has eighty million subordinates!!"
"With a single command from me, you will all be torn to pieces!"
Nami raised an eyebrow and said in a flippant tone:
"Oh? Eighty million subordinates?"
Her gaze swept over the few small heads peeking out from behind the flags.
"Are there three people?"
"Ah!!! I've been found out again!!"
The three little devils, Onion, Green Pepper, and Carrot, who were hiding behind the flag, screamed in fright when they heard this.
"Run! That woman is a witch!"
The three small figures instantly dropped the flags they were holding, cried out, and ran towards the village, disappearing in a flash.
"Hey! Don't run away! That's so disloyal!"
Usopp watched his fleeing subordinates in despair, his legs trembling even more violently.
Nami glanced at Viktor, who had been watching the show, then bent down, picked up a small pebble that had been shot at her earlier, and tossed it in her hand.
"After all, I've never heard of a pirate using a slingshot as a weapon before," Nami said with a smile.
Just then, Viktor, who had been silent all along, suddenly stepped forward.
He raised his head, his dark eyes fixed on Usopp on the cliff, his expression incredibly serious.
"No, Nami, don't be careless."
"Victor said in a deep voice."
Nami paused, looking at him in confusion: "What?"
Viktor pointed at Usopp and said with a serious expression:
"What if... he really does have 80 million subordinates?"
The air froze for a second.
"Go to hell!!! This island can't even hold eight thousand people!!"
Nami's furious roar echoed along the coast, followed by a small pebble that whistled through the air and struck Viktor precisely on the back of the head.
