Usopp sat dejectedly under a big tree on a hillside outside the village.
He was in a very depressed mood.
Crabatel's accusations were vivid, making him feel both angry and powerless, and Ke Ya did not stand firmly on his side, making him feel betrayed. Although he also knew that Ke Ya was in a dilemma, and he also truly regarded him as a friend.
"Are you thinking about your own thoughts?"
The frustrated Usopp suddenly heard a voice, and looked up and saw a strange man. He remembered that he had seen each other in Keya's yard, and there were two moving beauties following him at that time.
"Who are you? What are you looking for me?"
"I just want to talk to you." Roach sat next to Usopp with a smile: "Because you look like an uncle I've seen before, his name is Jesus Bu, and he is a very powerful pirate."
Usopp's eyes lit up: "Do you know my father?!"
"That was when I was a kid."
Roche nodded without blushing and said, "I remember Jesus Bu's shooting skills were amazing, and he could even easily shoot an ant's eyebrows. Now he should be a sniper on the red-haired Shanks' ship."
"That legendary red-haired Shanks?!"
Usopp jumped up in surprise: "Isn't he a very famous pirate?! It turns out that my dad is on such a great boat! He is indeed my pride! In the future, I will definitely go out to sea like him and become an amazing sea warrior!"
"Do you want to be a pirate?"
"certainly!"
Usopp said with his eyes glowing: "This is my dream forever!"
"Do you like to do bad things?"
Roche smiled teasingly: "Murder, set fire, or robbery?"
"I'm not interested in these!"
Usopp thought Roach was defaming himself: "I don't want to be a villain who does everything wrong!"
"But that's the real pirate, right?"
Roqi smiled and shook his head: "Since the pirate business is related to the word "pirate", it cannot be a glorious profession. If you want to sell dog meat with the title of sheep, then it would be better to not have this stigma from the beginning."
"Although we are in the era of pirates, there is not only one way of life."
"Navy, adventurer, bounty hunter..."
"If you really want to go out to sea, there are many options, and you can even consider joining my team." Roach extended an olive branch to Usopp: "Do you want to be an adventurer with me? One day, our names will also resound throughout the sea!"
Roach really wanted to recruit Usopp.
Usopp is not a powerful warrior. He is also very timid and likes to brag and lie. He is indeed a man full of shortcomings, but he also has many advantages and glitters, such as being timid but not cowardly. He will never retreat when he should stand up, and is very talented in craftsmanship, shooting and art.
Even if it is not for the research and use of Bucky bullets, this kind of versatile player is definitely a rare and excellent crew member.
"You want to invite me on your boat?"
"Yes." Luo Qi nodded: "We have two purposes to come to Xiluobu Village. One is to find a good ship that can withstand the wind and waves, and the other is to recruit excellent crew members to go out to sea and adventure together."
"Then you have a good sense of vision!"
Usopp proudly patted his chest: "I am a man called Captain Usopp by everyone in the village. He once commanded a total of 800 million subordinates, and my shooting level is also first-class. If you really strongly ask, I can't be your captain!"
"Then there is no need."
Roche smiled and waved his hand: "The captain has too much responsibility, so there is no need to bother you. I mainly want to ask you to be the sniper on the ship."
"Like my dad?"
Usopp touched his chin: "Your words just now make sense. I don't seem to have to be a pirate. But although I don't mind getting on your ship, I'm still a little confused now. If I want to leave, I have to say to Ke Ya. Although it's her fault for not talking to me today, that butler..."
"Are you talking about that Crabatel?"
Roche pointed his hand at the clearing under the cliff: "He seems to be joining a very suspicious person."
"It's really him!"
Usopp's eyes widened in surprise: "How could he be in such a place?!"
His doubts were quickly unraveled.
According to the information obtained from the eavesdropping conversation, Crabatel is the pirate captain Clow. The only one who was arrested three years ago was his scapegoat. The man wearing heart-shaped glasses across from him was Zangao. He was the deputy captain of the Black Cat Pirates under his command. Now the two are conspiring to implement the assassination plan of Keya.
"You must not make the point of your plan wrong."
Crow said coldly: "What I want is not only Keya's death, but most importantly, let her leave a suicide note so that I can inherit her legacy with justification, so that I can have wealth and a stable life at the same time."
"Don't worry, this is just a trivial matter."
Zangao waved his hand confidently, then pointed his hand at the hillside: "But I seemed to see two eavesdroppers there just now!"
Clow turned his head and looked at the hillside.
It happened to be facing Roche's four eyes.
"We are really destined to be!" Roach did not panic because of being discovered like Usopp. Instead, he stood up and greeted Clow with a smile: "I didn't expect to meet again so soon. We didn't disturb your conversation, right?"
Clow had a calm face and did not answer.
"What should I do now?"
Zangao turned his head and looked at Clow: "Do you want to kill them to silence?"
“No need for this.”
Crow replied coldly: "I know Usopp well, and he is not able to have any impact on my plan."
"What about the other one?"
"This guy can't be killed." Clow said with some displeasure: "He only questioned my identity not long ago. If he died suddenly and bizarrely, it would easily arouse Keya's suspicion. I don't want to have trouble at such a critical moment."
"But they may have heard of our plan, if they go to inform or prepare in advance..."
"I'm still the same sentence, no one will believe them."
Clow showed a cold smile: "I spent three years accumulating a good reputation, and one of them is an unfamiliar countryman, and the other is a bragging king who has hatred with me. No one will believe their accusations!"
"Even if they are determined to stop our attack, will the Black Cat Pirates still be afraid of these unknown people?"
"The game has begun..."
