The Great Voyage Begins with the Celestial Dragons

This would allow him to witness the Red-Haired Pirates destroy a country, thus putting an end to his mother's hopes.

Thinking this, he quickly took out a video Den Den Mushi and began recording the scene in front of him.

Amidst the raging fire of Eregia, the Red-Haired Pirates' ship sailed off unscathed from that direction to another location.

Suddenly, the crowd on the merchant ship's deck erupted in commotion, gasping in surprise.

Usopp looked into the distance and his expression changed.

A powerful flying slash was hurtling towards the merchant ship, intending to cut it in two.

Chapter 271 Father and Son Reunion

"Damn it!!!"

Usopp shouted in exasperation.

Why didn't he realize that, given the brutality of his bastard father and his gang, the merchant ship would surely suffer heavy losses?

In his haste, Usopp couldn't help but look at Stella.

Stella shook her head solemnly:

“I am no match for Shanks. Protecting you and escaping in the chaos is our only option. His Highness is already nearby. If they are fast enough, the Red-Haired Pirates won’t be able to escape.”

As she finished speaking, her flying slash reached its peak.

Shanks personally unleashed a flying slash, easily cleaving the merchant ship in two.

Because the merchant ship was destroyed, the passengers were thrown about, and screams and cries for help filled the air.

"help me!"

Why...?

"hateful..."

"..."

In this noisy environment, the calm Usopp became an anomaly.

He was being dragged along by Stella, swaying and wobbling as they moved around on the boat.

His gaze remained fixed on the approaching pirate ship.

Usopp could clearly see a man standing on the watchtower, a man whose photograph he had seen countless times.

"Jesusphab, I will recognize you even if you turn to ashes."

Usopp stared intently at the man, muttering hateful whispers.

On the other side, Yasopp, standing atop the watchtower, was still engrossed in his conversation with Shanks.

"Hey, Shanks, are you sure you want to kill them all?"

Just now, Shanks and Beckman jointly issued the order to wipe out the merchant ship.

At this point, Uta is still out of control, and Gordon is the only living person in all of Eregia who knows the truth.

Now that a merchant ship has suddenly arrived, Shanks would absolutely not allow it to expose Uta if it did.

Since they've started, they might as well go all the way—that's the Red-Haired Pirates' style.

There must be no survivors on this merchant ship.

"Ah, kill them all."

Shanks rarely showed the cold-bloodedness of a pirate. He was not a bloodthirsty pirate, but after so many years as a pirate, he had killed countless people, and whether they were innocent or not no longer mattered.

A series of flying slashes came from his hand, dismembering the merchant ship.

"Roger that!"

Once the target was confirmed, Yasopp no ​​longer hesitated.

He didn't have as much experience as Shanks as a pirate, and he was still somewhat resistant to the idea of ​​slaughtering ordinary people.

However, it was the captain's order, and he would silently obey it.

boom!boom!

Yasopp fired his sniper rifle in rapid succession, and with each shot, a man was killed by a bullet lodged between his eyebrows.

On the other side, Usopp, seeing Yasopp personally involved in the killing, completely lost his composure.

If he remembered correctly, Yasopp had told Banchina that he wanted to become a heroic pirate.

Look at him now, how is he any different from a bloodthirsty butcher?

Usopp watched as Yasopp ruthlessly reaped lives one by one, and all he could do was laugh.

He didn't care about Yasopp's massacre; killing and being killed is the main theme of this world.

But to engage in the piracy of killing innocent people and then claim that piracy is the domain of men and the domain of heroes is an extremely shameless act that Usopp despises.

Of course, if Yasopp said that to other people, Usopp wouldn't think much of it.

But Yasopp was talking about his innocent mother, which made her unable to forget such a bastard, filling Usopp with resentment.

Fortunately, he recorded everything that Yasopp did, which was enough to make her mother give up.

Usopp's constant staring at Yasopp's behavior also drew the other party's attention.

"Oh, what a boy who looks a lot like Banchina... What a pity."

Without much thought, Yasopp raised his sniper rifle and pulled the trigger, aiming directly at Usopp.

The moment he pulled the trigger, he was still thinking about what his son should look like.

As for Usopp in front of him, he didn't consider him his son at all.

After two years of training from Stella, Usopp was no longer the country boy he used to be. He was well-dressed, had a neat hairstyle, and looked like he came from a wealthy family.

Yasopp couldn't believe that Usopp would live a life of wealth after he left.

boom! ! !

The bullet grazed Usopp's cheek, leaving a bloody mark, before finally striking the wooden hull next to him.

Usopp's eyes narrowed as he stood frozen in place, his gaze filled with the relief of surviving a close call.

Just a little bit more...

If Stella hadn't pulled him back, he would already be a dead man under Yasopp's command.

The image of Yasopp pulling the trigger without hesitation was deeply imprinted in Usopp's mind.

Thinking about it in my heart and watching my own father shoot me are two completely different experiences.

"what!"

Seeing that Stella had saved Usopp, Yasopp became quite interested.

He wasn't surprised. After all, it was a ship from the Grand Line, so there was bound to be some resistance. However, when faced with the Red-Haired Pirates, they still couldn't escape the fate of being wiped out.

boom! boom! boom!

Without a second thought, Yasopp raised his hand and fired three shots at Stella.

Stella quickly moved on the boat with only a partial foothold left, trying to create distance.

"Usopp! Take a breath!"

Usopp, being led by Stella, also came to his senses.

Seeing Stella protecting him from Yasopp's attacks, he forced himself to calm down.

He absolutely wouldn't allow that bastard to kill the person who was best to him; he wouldn't allow himself to become a burden.

Seeing Usopp take a deep breath, Stella suddenly pulled him.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two splashes were heard, and Stella immediately pulled Usopp into the water.

In just a moment, her figure blended into the crowd of people who had fallen into the water and disappeared without a trace.

"Did they run away...?"

Yasopp frowned slightly, and after failing to find Stella's target, he began hunting down the others.

This place is quite a distance from Eregia, and it would be difficult to get there without a boat.

Based on his assessment of that woman, it would be difficult to have her as a burden.

Not to mention, the blood will attract sea kings and near-shore kings, and that child who bleeds will basically have no chance of survival.

After making his own judgment, Yasopp felt much more at ease.

On the other hand, Stella displayed amazing swimming skills after pulling Usopp into the water.

In just a moment, she pulled Usopp away from the scene of the conflict.

"Wow."

Usopp surfaced from the sea, gasping for breath, his face showing relief at having survived a near-death experience.

He never imagined that a trip to find his bastard father would turn into him being chased and killed by his own bastard father.

He almost died at the hands of Yasopp.

“We’re still not out of danger. I can sense the location of the Don Quixote. I’ll take you to His Highness,” Stella said in a low voice.

There were only two people in the entire Red-Haired Pirates who she couldn't defeat; she could easily kill the rest.

And if she wanted to run, no one could stop her.

Although her strength is not comparable to that of Shanks and his crew, when it comes to Observation Haki, she far surpasses all the members of the Shanks Pirates.

"it is good!"

Usopp simply nodded silently, took another breath, and let Stella lead him towards the Don Quixote.

Today's events greatly affected him.

It also made him realize that without strength, nothing can be accomplished.
