The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

  Chapter 137 Ideal Reality Companion Duel

   "Roman, why would you believe that..."

  Although Nami has never seen her true face under Frankie's cloak mask, her hairy legs and bare feet were inadvertently exposed when she walked around...what other men in stockings and tights.

   "Everything looks abnormal, right?"

   "Don't worry," Roman waved his hand. "That person was just tortured by guilt and secrets so that he could only pretend to be crazy and stupid."

  Frankie, or ‘Carter Flam’, is also a typical passionate teenager. There are miserable childhoods, kind teachers, and brothers who love to quarrel and actually care about each other very much.

  At the same time, he also has the loyalty, impulse, love to cause trouble, and a tendon of a passionate boy. ——Until he was planted and blamed, killing his master who was like a father, and was entrusted by his brother to take care of the master’s belongings. Under all kinds of pressure, I had to disguise myself.

  The result is to pretend for a long time, really become a pervert...

   "Anyway, Mr. Frankie is a man who will keep the promise."

  What's more, so many members of the Frankie family are still in this city. The so-called monk can't run to the temple if he can run, and he is afraid that he will not get away with it?

  Although this kind of thing simply cannot happen.

  ? !

   "Go, everyone else is back on the Golden Merley."

  Roman grabbed Nami next to her, and the white wings grew behind her. In a shock, she galloped forward at high speed and low in the sky.

   "Hey, why are you in such a hurry?"

   Facing Nami's exclaim, Roman did not answer but frowned.

  I shouldn’t. Obviously, I and Nami are the group responsible for exchanging gold and repairing ships. Luffy and Usopp can’t just go play tricks and make things happen. How could they...

  However, Roman wanted to think about the fact that Luffy and Usopp, who were very carefree in appearance, were actually the ones who cared about the Golden Meri the most.

   Soon Roman took Nami and flew to the Golden Meri, but the usual lively and laughter deck is now tense!

   "So are you going to abandon the Merley?"

  His eyes were bloodshot. Usopp was holding Luffy's collar, completely devoid of the usual laughing and joking appearance.

   "You are not a boatman, Usopp."

  Luffy, whose face was also very ugly, let Usopp grab his collar and retort.

   "You heard it too, what those professional boatmen say. So—"

"shut up!!"

  "Don't put on the air of a captain, think you are wise and experienced...what a bad decision!"

   "I misunderstood you, Luffy!"

"this is····"

   Facing Nami who fell from the sky with a puzzled face, Sauron quickly explained the reason.

  "The professional boatman here just came to see it. The Merley...has been unable to sail anymore and can't even repair it."

  ? ? ?

"how come·····"

  咚!

  And just when Nami looked incredulous, Luffy suddenly pressed Usopp to the ground!

   "Don't say too much!"

  "Do you think it’s uncomfortable for you alone? Everyone is the same!"

  "If you have an opinion on my decision, then you can start from this ship—"

  Boom——Boom!

   kicked out, interrupting Lu Fei's words in an instant, and forcibly flew the two away.

   "Luffy, be sober!"

   "You are the captain, you can't say something casually."

   "Sorry," Luffy got up when he was kicked out by Roman, "I'm sorry, I just didn't pay attention just now..."

  "This is your truth, Luffy."

"What did you say!?"

   Usopp, who also got up, patted his pants.

   "Abandon the companions who can't keep up, and just move on."

   "Your dream is to become the "One Piece" standing at the top of the world. Of course you must have a strong power! But I am different—"

  "I never thought of standing at that height, and I have been thinking seriously all this time—"

  Ussop's solemn eyes swept across the people on the deck: Luffy, Sauron, Sanji, Roman, Nami, Chopper, and his lowered eyes were reluctant and unwilling.

   "My strength can't keep up with you anymore."

   "Obviously a sniper on a ship, but he can't even beat a chef, a ship doctor, or even a navigator!"

   "Usopp,"

  Facing her companion with her head down, Nami was at a loss for a while.

  "I...My book is only Roman's..."

   "But that's still true ‘power’, isn’t it!"

  Usopp gritted his teeth and looked up at Nami, tears rolling in his eyes. "Whether it is a knife, a gun, or a book... Power is power! It is the ‘companion’ who can fight and bring victory, right?"

  Roman stepped forward as soon as he wanted to say something, when Usopp suddenly reached out and interrupted him.

   "You invited me to board the ship."

  When I was still in Xi Luobu Village, there were only a few people in the straw hat group...

  At that time, I naively thought that being a pirate was a novel adventure, that is, every day of laughter;

   Then after going out to sea, one after another enemy who destroyed the world, fell powerlessly again and again;

   "Roman, I am very grateful for your training along the way. I know you really want everyone to become stronger, but:"

  Usopp turned his head, the tears in his eyes trembled and slipped.

   "I'm just an ordinary person, I can't keep up with you monsters!!!"

This····

  It turned out to be part of my responsibility, and Roman was speechless for a while.

  Think about it seriously. It is precisely because I know how powerful the enemy I am about to face, so I will seize all the time to make the straw hat group stronger. Under such pressure, his eagerness also infected other people.

  Luffy, Sauron, Sanji and other determined people of course gladly accept it, but others just...

   glanced at Nami next to her, did she invisibly put too much pressure on the other party?

   "Sorry, I actually have already prepared--"

   "No need to apologize, Roman." Usopp wiped a tear. "It is me who should apologize. It is me who failed your expectations."

   "One Piece's companion...I am unworthy."

  ! !

   "Luffy, I can't stay with you anymore."

   "I have been causing you trouble before."

  After speaking, Usopp turned around and jumped off the Golden Meri. Pull out the slingshot.

  "You are the captain of this ship, Monkey·D·Luffy!"

   "Fight with me, if I win, give me the Golden Merley!!"

  ? ?

   "Roman, stop them!"

Facing the anxious Nami beside him, Roman just shook his head calmly.

   "This is a man's duel. I have no reason to intervene."

  Dao is different, not conspiring.

  Think about it carefully. For Usopp, it might not be a good choice for Usopp to return to his hometown in Donghai with a large sum of money to get married. ——With his current strength, he can be regarded as a ‘big man’ in the East China Sea.

  It is his own choice whether to retreat from the rapids or to face the difficulties.

  I have no reason to drag the other party to face the terrifying enemy in the future. Luffy is the same.

  —————

  "You are not timid this time, no matter what the result is," Luffy looked at Usopp seriously on the beach next to him. "This is the duel you requested. Don't regret it if you lose!"

   "Don't compare me to those who don't know your details, Luffy."

  Usopp stood on the opposite side in earnest.

   "I know your abilities well, let me go."

  The duel begins——

   "I have 8,000 subordinates. If you don't want to die, surrender immediately!"

   "Ah~ so many?"

  Chopper was shocked!

   "Do you think I don't know you don't have those subordinates?"

  Luffy shouts!

  "Usopp's spell: a hundred needles pierced the eyeball, the blade..."

   "Ah, it hurts!"

  Chopper cried bitterly!

   "Enough!-Rubber-gun."

  Luffy attacked directly,

  Boom!

  The extended fist slammed into Usopp’s abdomen, causing the long-nosed sniper who was ‘chanting a spell’ to spout blood.

  噗!

  ? ?

  "Must kill-Ketchup!"

  Fake, Usopp is not so fragile that Luffy can't hold a punch. Facing Luffy who had stopped subconsciously, Usopp gritted his teeth.

  "Do you sympathize with your opponent in battle?"

   "Flash Shell!"

  The strong light at close range robbed Luffy of his vision, and under his impetuous heart, he never thought of using things like seeing, hearing, color, domineering. so:

   "Definitely Kill-Egg Star!"

Snapped,

  A rotten egg smeared Luffy's face! The damage is basically zero, but:

   "Do you dare to fight hard?!"

   "This is how I fight, Luffy."

   "Must kill-Pepper Star!"

  A chili took the opportunity to fly into the roaring Luffy's throat, instantly making him blush and spit flames! Then:

   "Must kill-Shuriken!"

   "Definitely Kill-Iron Thorns!"

  As his eyes were red, his throat was swollen, and his hands were hurriedly avoiding Usopp’s weapons, a white mist filled Luffy’s side for unknown time.

  ?

   "It's gas!"

  Everything just now was just to conceal this real attack method. A wind shell on the ground quietly spouting gas was Usopp’s killer.

   "Take my trick, Luffy."

   "Fire Star!!!"

  Boom! !

  The violent explosion leaped into the sky with the location of Luffy as the core, and a large area of ​​the coast was completely turned into a **** of flames!

  A huge amount of gas was instantly ignited, and a series of deafening explosions one after another. The mountain shakes for a while, like an earthquake! The ground was blown into darkness, and the hot and expanding gas rose up like a fist into the sky. Even the Golden Merley next to it was pushed off the coast abruptly.

   "What a powerful explosion."

  In Sauron’s emotions, it was Usopp who continued to quickly reach out his arms from his shoulder bag.

   "I know this won't kill you, Luffy. So—"

   flashes——

As soon as the figure flickered, Luffy’s serious face was caught in Usopp’s eyes. Before he could react, his body was suddenly pulled back into a curved bow, and the surge of pain on his stomach was instantly taken away. The consciousness of Usopp!

  咚,

  Usopp, whose eyes rolled white, fell to the ground, announcing the end of the duel.

"Fool,"

  The pitch-black Luffy said lowly.

   "You know me, do you think I don't know you?"

  "How can you beat me!!!"

  Luffy, who knelt down in front of Usopp, picked up the straw hat beside him, turned and pressed the straw hat.

   "Golden Merley, do whatever you like."

  "We will buy a new ship...and keep going!"

  ———————

  PS: It seems that many people think that domineering and domineering should be fearless, but domineering and domineering are just a natural ‘fate’. ——It has nothing to do with the character of the holder. In fact, when the original character awakens the overlord, he is either crying or desperate. It has nothing to do with "Fearless" at all...

  Don’t think that the holders of the overlord color are brainless because of the word ‘Overlord’. Redhead can still negotiate terms with the five old stars. Kaido is about to become a "Zhihuang". When the aunt is awake, He Zong Lian Heng is also very shrewd, and Ming Ge's arrogant appearance is actually both sides...

  Even Jack ‘The Ship King’ is usually a polite and honest person who works hard and no complaints~~

  So don't complain why Roman is overlord. In fact, although Roman is usually counseled, the battle has never flinched. Even if you know you can't win.

  ——If you ask again, it is the author's appointment!
