The weather was fine, but the weather was fine.

Donghai Xiluobu Village is a simple village with simple villagers and beautiful scenery.

The weather was clear and sunny.

A thin boy with thick lips, long nose, spinach-curled hair and a pirate's headscarf was running happily in the village.

"Pirates are coming, it's bad, pirates are coming."

Every time the long-nosed boy passed by a place, he shouted at the adults and the houses of the residents.

It soon caused a commotion among the villagers, and many adults ran out of their homes with weapons in hand and called their children back home.

The adults rushed to the village port in a mighty way to fight the pirates and defend their homes.

But when they arrived at the port, they found that the sea was calm and there was not even a ghost.

The adults realized that they were deceived by the child who was full of lies again.

Everyone was very angry and went back to settle accounts with the child.

When they saw the long-nosed child, the adults cursed and some wanted to chase and beat him, but the child was very smart and had a first-class ability to escape, so he was not caught by the adults.

The boy who became the target of public criticism did not feel sad, but laughed happily.

He did not dare to appear in crowded places again, so he strolled in the less crowded places in the village.

When he found some peers playing together, he took the initiative to go over and say hello to them.

However, those peers made faces at him one by one, mocking him for being a liar and a liar.

What's more, some people threw stones at him and wanted to drive him away.

The long-nosed boy was still not hit, he still maintained his optimistic smile, and mocked the other party for not hitting.

He said that he didn't want to play with them, not that they disliked him.

"The pirates are coming, the pirates are coming."

The long-nosed boy shouted happily as he walked home.

His home was a simple house in a remote part of the village.

When he reached the door of his house, he suddenly became silent and sad, but in just a moment, he sorted out his emotions and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

He put on a cheerful face, opened the door, and shouted: "Kasan, ta da yi ma (Mom, I'm back.)"

His simple home can be described as bare.

On the altar in the house, there was a portrait of a woman with a gentle and kind face, and she also had a long nose.

The gentle smile of the woman in the portrait seemed to be looking at the little boy.

The little boy Usopp bowed to his mother's portrait, put on a smile and began to tell what big things he had done today.

"Kasan (Mom), I met new friends today, and I played with them..."

Gurgle, Usopp's stomach made hungry sounds.

There was no food at home. He searched through the boxes and cabinets, but only found a few coins, which were not enough for a full meal.

Usopp's father, Jesus, left home when he was two years old and became a pirate, and even called it the pirate flag calling.

Even the news of his wife's death, Jesus probably didn't know.

Despite this, Usopp, who lost his mother at a young age and had no one to rely on, was still proud of his father. When he grew up, he wanted to become a pirate like his father and have his own adventure story.

In fact, when Usopp's mother was sick, the villagers took good care of the mother and son.

However, Usopp ruined his friendly relationship with the villagers with his own hands.

In the quiet island village, he would always rush into the village every morning shouting "Pirates are coming", and people would come out with brooms to chase this big talker.

The reason for this is that when Usopp was very young, his father, a pirate, went to sea. His mother missed him very much and did not come back until she died.

When his mother was dying, he lied to her that pirates were coming so that she could hold on.

But his mother eventually died, and from then on, Usopp's "pirates are coming" could be heard every day in the village.

Although his mother was gone, this practice became his way of missing her.

...

A blond man in a black suit happened to appear outside the house. He saw Usopp holding a few coins in his hand with a worried expression on his face.

Ivan sighed: Shanks is really a nobody, and Jesus Bu is not a real man.

Knock knock knock!

Usopp saw the long-lost guest at the door of his house and asked in confusion: "Who are you looking for?"

Ivan gave him a gentle smile: "I am your father's friend, and I came to see you on his behalf."

"Father! Then you are also a real pirate

"Usopp was very excited.

Ivan shook his head: "I'm not a pirate, but your father and I are indeed friends."

He took out a thick stack of Beli from his arms and said: "This is your father Jesus Bu, who asked me to give it to you and your son."

Usopp did not take it immediately, and said happily: "Father has not forgotten me and my mother."

Ivan could see that he seemed very moved.

After taking the money, Usopp counted it happily, and then said: "I don't know your name yet, I will treat you to a meal."

Ivan smiled: "Why do you want to treat me to a meal?"

Usopp said: "The great warriors on the sea are all very loyal."

"You are my father's friend, so you are my elder and guest."

"Okay! "Ivan agreed.

In the village restaurant, Usopp was wolfing down his food, but Ivan didn't eat much.

After finishing his meal, Usopp's stomach was full, and he asked expectantly: "Senior Ivan, can you tell me the story of my father and the adventure story on the sea?"

Ivan asked back: "Do you want to be an outstanding sea warrior?"

"Can I?" Usopp's eyes were eager, but a little self-doubting.

Ivan nodded and said seriously: "But I want to make it clear to you that your father and your father's captain are friends with me."

"But I'm a navy, not a pirate."

"Navy? But I want to be a pirate. "Usopp muttered in a low voice.

Ivan felt that although Usopp had many problems, he was a talent.

He had the talent of a sniper and a bit of an inventor. In the original book, no one taught him and there were no good resources for him to invent.

The Straw Hat Pirates had always been poor, so where was the money for Usopp to squander?

It was normal for the son to want to be a pirate if his father was a pirate.

Ivan poured himself a glass of wine and said, "I can take you out to sea and accept you as my apprentice. You have time to consider before I finish this glass of wine."

Usopp fell into contemplation and struggle. After finishing a glass of wine, Ivan stood up.

"I should go. You can eat slowly. I will pay the bill."

When Ivan walked out of the door, Usopp had not moved yet, and Ivan would not stop and strode away.

"Wait a minute. "

After Ivan walked a long way, Usopp chased after him.

He was so tired that he was out of breath. His little face said seriously: "Master, I want to be your disciple, but can I go and say goodbye to my friends first?"

His only friend Kaya lived in the only mansion in the village.

They met by chance and met very few times.

Even Usopp didn't know whether the other party regarded him as a friend, but Kaya was the only one who didn't dislike him, so he regarded her as a friend.

Usopp took Ivan to the door of the mansion and was in a dilemma, not knowing how to get in.

Ivan just revealed his identity to the guard and was welcomed in as a guest.

Usopp also met Kaya, and the two had a pleasant conversation.

A few days later, on the Sea Dragon.

Ace, Sabo, and Luffy, the three little ones got up early for morning exercises, and Usopp, who was woken up, was listless.

Luffy said angrily: "Usopp, you are lazy again! "

Why was Luffy angry? Because he was also driven by Ace. If he didn't get up, he would be beaten.

Usopp seemed to become sick and said: "Luffy, I have a disease that makes my body hurt when I train."
