Paper Fruit One Piece - Chapter 18
Chapter 18 The Cowardly Boy Reappears
Syrup Village,
On the hillside near the sea.
“Good… what a big ship…”
“Look, those guys are so vicious…”
“Is it a pirate? What to do, Captain Usopp—”
The three children referred to as “Captain Usopp” was a young man with a long nose and shaggy black hair wrapped in a turban. He looked down at the huge merchant ship, his whole body crawling back.
“It suddenly occurred to me that it is time for a nap,”
“I got the disease of ‘you will die if you don’t take a nap’…”
“Captain Usopp, cheer up!”
“How can you be afraid of mere pirates…”
“Who is there?”
With a voice of murderous intent in the cold, the three children hiding at the top of the slope peeping around turned and ran, leaving behind:
“Hey, hey, you guys—”
There is no way, the matter is now:
“You pirates, this is the site of my Captain Usopp!”
The young man with a long nose stood up and faced the slow-moving four of Roman, Luffy, Zoro, and Nami. He pointed his thumb to himself and shouted intimidation.
“Hurry up and roll me back to the sea, otherwise my 80 million subordinates will not stand idly by!”
·········
“Tsk, there is such a small slope behind you, how can you hide 80 million people!-Castle fruit?” Roman rubbed his temples, thinking that such a person would be a ‘companion’ in the future, he felt heartbroken.
So tired.
Think about it carefully, the really reliable crew member should be Robin?
Usopp’s trick is the same as “A hundred swords and axes are thrown behind the screen”~~
“Is being seen through…?”
There are ghosts if you can’t see through it!
brush,
“We are pirates.”
The figure flickered, and a cold voice sounded behind Usopp. The arm that rested gently on his shoulder made half of his body numb!
“If you don’t agree, you will fall to the ground—”
Roman’s fingers gently slid across Usopp’s neck, instantly causing the teenager to be covered in cold sweat, his legs shaking at high speed as if he had eaten a ‘rubber band fruit’! but:
Snapped,
Both hands firmly grasped Roman’s wrist, still the trembling voice of a young man named Usopp.
“I… I will never let you step into the village…”
“Interesting,”
Roman’s fingers sticking to the opponent’s neck followed the skin to the side while dubbing the voice.
“puff!”
“Ah~~~~”
···········
“Roman, he passed out.”
“Turning his eyes white, foaming at the mouth… No way…”
——————
In the restaurant in Syrup Village,
“What? It turns out that you are recruiting partners and looking for ships.”
After changing a pair of pants, Usopp, who was resurrected full of blood, enthusiastically promoted himself to Luffy, Zoro and Nami.
“If anyone in this small town can have extra ‘boats’, then there is only Keya’s house. She is the richest lady of this small town. She owns a mansion, many properties and more than a dozen servants.”
“It’s a pity that her parents passed away a year ago, no matter how rich they are…”
“do not talk.”
Usopp was interrupted by Nami, but he didn’t care and returned to the original topic again.
“Well, if you want to recruit people, I can too~~” He pointed to himself confidently, “I can be your captain!”
“No!” X3
“Think about it!”
“Hahahaha~~~”
“What are you laughing at?” Annoyed Usopp looked at Roman who frightened him out, “Do you think I’m very timid…”
“No,” Roman shook his head and said seriously.
“You are brave,-I apologize to you for what happened just now.”
?
“If I were changed, facing an invincible strong enemy alone, I would have run away without a trace, how could I be blocked in front.”
And even after the teenager named Usopp passed out, he still held his wrist firmly… In all fairness, Roman himself believed that he had no such ‘determination’.
“Hmph, even if you say that, I won’t be happy~~”
(*^▽^*)
········
Are you Chopper possessed?!
“By the way, the time is up.”
Looking at the clock on the wall, the boy with a long nose stood up. “You eat first, I have something to do~~”
————————
Not long after the boy named Usopp left, the three children found him.
From their mouths, Roman and others also knew that the long-nosed boy was going to ‘tell a story’ to the girl Keya who had lost her parents… Well, ‘bringing’ to relieve melancholy, so:
“Very well, then we will go to the lady’s house to borrow a boat!”
Luffy stood up, full of food and drink, and announced loudly.
“Sorry, my companion…” Roman, who paid at the counter, pointed in the direction of his temple, with an expression of ‘you understand’, which made the boss smile awkwardly and politely.
However, the four of them who finished their meal finally came to a mansion. After breaking into each other’s courtyard without authorization, what appeared in front of them was:
A scene where a boy named Usopp is being slammed by a butler with glasses!
Wow, this—
Roman and the others are almost a pair of bloody “Asura War God Zuo Son-in-law’s Humiliation”:
How honorable is my lady, even you deserve it?
Get the money, get out!
If you walk out of this mansion today, there will be no place for you to stand in the village of Syrup…
It’s almost like this. At this time, if a group of pirates with hundreds of millions of bounties jumped out and shouted: ‘Welcome the son of the four emperors’ cadres out of the mountain! ‘
That would be more perfect…
“Roman, what are you laughing at?”
“Ahem,” Roman shook his head, “I think of happy things.”
Well, although the content is similar, it is not so ‘crude and mindless’. The butler with glasses made Usopp angrily and beat him with just a few words. ——At this moment, his master in the mansion: Miss Keya’s image in the heart immediately dropped drastically.
After a few more words, Usopp was forced to leave behind by a cruel sentence of “Never come here again” and then left angrily.
As for Luffy’s “borrowing a boat”, of course it didn’t stop there.
——————
“Hey, Usopp.”
A group of people walked out… well, after being ‘ejected’ from the mansion behind them. Luffy asked the boy with a long nose beside him.
“You really don’t see the girl named… Keya anymore?”
“Hmph, if the housekeeper apologizes to me, it’s not that I can’t forgive him.” After all, he still couldn’t let go of the weak and sickly girl.
“Hehe, then you might be disappointed.”
Roman behind him suddenly spoke, and a single sentence attracted everyone’s attention.
“Because that Miss Keya will die soon.”
“What did you say!?”
Turning around suddenly, Usopp, who was trembling all over, stared at Roman! Even if he knows that he has no resistance in front of this person, but:
“Although Keya is ill, she will definitely get better! Take back your curse! Otherwise–”
Even Nami on the side frowned, but Luffy:
“Roman, have you found anything we don’t know?”
He chose to believe in Roman for the first time.
“Don’t get me wrong, I’m not talking about Miss Keya’s illness. It’s the housekeeper just now–”
“It’s called ‘Klahadore’ or something, right?”
Roman spread out his hand, and an ancient yellow wanted notice ’emerged’ from his palm. While frightening Usopp, the characters above made him suddenly widen his eyes!
“This… this is…”
“Hey, isn’t this Mr. Butler just now?”
“Right,”
Facing the surprised Nami, and the thoughtful Zoro, there was also Luffy with a question mark on his face. Roman raised the wanted warrant in his hand.
“‘Hundred Plan’ Kuro, the captain of the Black Cat Pirate Group.”
“There are many scheming, to achieve the goal by all means, the small town that once slaughtered a thousand people…”
“It is rumored that he was arrested and executed by the Navy three years ago. But, I happen to know: this guy is just feigning death to get out.”
Roman tilted his head in the direction of the mansion that he had just walked out of, with a weird smile on his lips.
“Unexpectedly, he actually lived in seclusion in this place-in just two years, he gained the trust of the people around him, and then ‘killed’ the owner’s house, and then just let the Miss Keya ‘die’. Then at the same time he can get a lot of fortune, he can spend the second half of your life peacefully. It’s wonderful~~~”
Although Roman doesn’t remember the plot clearly, but Pirate, isn’t it just for the back of the pot?
Anyway, the other party was indeed trying to seize the family property of that Miss Keya.
“What… what…”
“Could Keya’s parents be—”
“What evidence do you have?”
Facing Usopp, who was instantly sweaty, Roman curled his lips.
“Evidence?”
“Brother, are you misunderstanding there?”
“I’m a pirate, not a navy! What do I want evidence to do—”
Roman took a step forward and stuffed the wanted warrant into the panicked Usopp’s hands.
“After all, the lady named Keya and I are not relatives, let alone a vicious pirate lying nearby. Even if she immediately dies in front of me, what does it have to do with me?”
“The reason why I said this is because I think—”
Roman lowered his head and spit out a few words in Usopp’s ear.
“It’s just fun.”
