A/N: I accidentally deleted this chapter and was force to rewrite this chapter. I was in the process of updating the chapter after this when I accidentally deleted this chapter, which is why I've updated two chapters in a row.

A Pirate's Son: Usopp

Luffy Zoro and Nami were sailing to the next island.

"We need to make a plan," Nami stated.

"What do you mean?" Luffy asked.

"Are we going to the Grand Line like this?" Nami asked.

"Oh, that's right! We have plenty of fruits now, but we don't have any meat," Luffy responded.

"I'm not talking about food supplies!" Nami yelled.

"And we don't have any sake to drink either!" Zoro stated.

"Let's worry about the problems of food and drinks later!" Nami yelled, "Grand Line is the most dangerous place in the world! Every pirate in this world wishes to get the treasure there. So we need to get a better ship first!"

"Oh yeah! That's right!" Luffy responded, "I still need to teach you and Zoro how to use Haki."

"What does that have to do with the ship problem?" Nami asked.

"Luffy and I made a deal that once we get a bigger ship, he'll teach me how to use Haki," Zoro stated.

"I had to ask," Nami responded, "Anyways, there's an island up ahead where we can find a village."

"Then let's go!" Luffy yelled.

...

At a town in an island, a 17 year old boy with dark curly hair covered by in a checkered bandana, with a long nose, wearing a brown overalls were running through his village.

"This is bad! We're in danger! The pirates are attacking!" the boy yelled.

Most of the villagers were use to this.

Others weren't so happy.

The boy stopped along the way and burst out laughing.

"I was just joking!" the boy yelled.

That earned him a frying pan thrown at his head.

The boy look to see most of the male villagers coming out of their house.

"Usopp, you little liar!" One yelled, "I won't let you get away this time!"

Usopp started running away as the villagers chased him.

...

The villagers lost track of Usopp and were forced to look else where.

Little did they know, Usopp was hiding in the tree.

"I have fooled the whole village again!" Usopp laughed as he lean back on the tree, "I am very happy ... I've done another good deed today! I've helped add some excitement to this boring village!"

"Captain!" two people yelled.

Usopp look down to see two boys.

One of them had a hair style that resembles a carrot.

The other had a cap that makes him look like a pepper.

"Carrot! Pepper!" Usopp yelled.

"Good morning captain Usopp," the boy that resembles a pepper name Pepper yelled.

"The Usopp pirate crew ready for action!" the boy that resembles a carrot name Carrot yelled.

Usopp jumped down and greet the boys.

"Hey guys! Where's Onion?" Usopp asked.

"He's probably still sleeping," Carrot replied.

"Still?" Usopp asked.

"Waaaaaa!" someone yelled.

They turned to see a boy that had a hair style that resembles an onion yelled.

"It's Onion," Carrot responded.

"What is he yelling?" Pepper asked.

"This is bad! The pirates are coming!" Onion yelled.

"You're lying!" Usopp Pepper and Carrot responded.

"It's true! I just saw it! Two boats are coming this way, and one of them as the symbol of the Buggy Pirates!" Onion explained.

"What did you say?" Usopp asked.

"It's true! We're dead!" Onion explained.

"Alas! Time for snacks!" Usopp yelled as he started running away.

"Don't run away!" Onion Pepper and Carrot yelled.

"Actually, I have this disease that will kill me if I don't eat snacks," Usopp explained.

"You're lying!" the three boys yelled.

"Captain! Aren't you always saying tou want to be a real pirate?" Carrot asked.

"How can a pirate be afraid of other pirates?" Pepper asked.

"That's right! And there are only three of them!" Onion yelled.

"What? Three? Isn't it a big ship?" Usopp asked.

"Nope, I said there were only two boats," Onion replied.

"Okay! Usopp Pirates, let's move!" Usopp yelled, "Follow me!"

They ran toward the shore.

...

Nami Luffy and Zoro landed at the shore of the same island.

"Wow! There's really an island here," Luffy said.

"So what did you expect?" Nami asked, "We followed the map, so it won't be wrong!"

"Is there a village here?" Luffy asked.

"Uh-huh! It's a small village," Nami replied.

...

The Usopp pirates were spying on them.

"Are those the pirates you were talking about Onion?" Usopp asked.

"That's right! Look, there's a pirate symbol," Onion replied.

"They don't look scary," Pepper stated.

"Yeah!" Carrot agreed.

...

"It been a long time since I last stood on firm ground ..." Zoro stretched.

"That's because you were sleeping all the time," Luffy told Zoro.

"By the way, I just noticed a moment ago ..." Zoro said and pointed toward the Usopp pirates, "What are those guys doing there?"

...

Onion Pepper and Carrot ran away scared.

Usopp stood up and face them.

"I am the greatest leader of the Usopp Pirates, who are incharge of this village, Captain Usopp!" Usopp yelled as he march down to Luffy Zoro and Nami, "It's best if you don't try to attack this village, because my 80 million men are not going to forgive you!"

"He looks like Yasopp. Could he be his son?" Luffy thought.

"You're lying right?" Nami asked.

"Waa! I've been caught!" Usopp panicked.

"See, you even said it yourself!" Nami sweatdropped.

"Arghh! Did I just say that?" Usopp panicked.

"Hey, are you the son of a pirate name Yasopp?" Luffy asked.

"You know my dad?" Usopp asked.

"Yeah," Luffy responded.

...

Usopp took Luffy Nami and Zoro to a restaurant where they can eat and talk.

"My dad is really a member of Red Hair Shanks' crew?" Usopp asked.

"Yeah!" Luffy responded, "He was the best sharp shooter I seen as a kid. And he always bragged about his son."

...Flashback...

Yasopp fired his gun at the apple and hit it dead on.

"Wow! Amazing!" 7 year old Luffy responded.

"Of course! Even if it's between the eyes of an ant, I can still shoot it!" Yasopp explained.

...

Yasopp and Luffy were at the bar.

Yasopp drank until he was drunk.

"Hey Luffy ... I have a son ... about your age ..." Yasopp told Luffy.

"I know, you've told me a hundred times already," Luffy responded.

"I'm going to tell it ... so you have to listen to it, no matter how may times!" Yasopp said as he hit Luffy with a mug, "I had to force myself to leave him because the pirate flag was calling me!"

The crew cheered in agreement.

...End of Flashback...

"Yasopp and Shanks were the reason why I wanted to become a pirate in the first place," Luffy laughed.

"So you are pirates," Usopp responded, "What are you guys doing here?"

"We're here to look for a ship and some shipmates," Nami replied, "Do you know where we can find a ship?"

"Well, there is one mansion that a girl inherited from her parents. But she been sick since her parents died a year ago," Usopp replied, "She may have a ship, but I don't know if you'll be able to get it from her."

"Forget it then," Nami replied, "We'll search somewhere else then."

"Hey Usopp, how about you join our crew?" Luffy asked.

"You're asking me?" Usopp asked.

"Yup!" Luffy responded.

"Alright, I'll join you, if you make me your captain," Usopp requested.

"Sorry, already taken," Luffy responded, "But if your aim as good as your father's, you can be Sharp Shooter."

"I'll have to think about that," Usopp responded.

Usopp look at the time.

"I need to go now!" Usopp told them, "Listen! I'm a good friend with the owner here, so order anything you want under my tab."

"Okay," Zoro responded.

"Bye!" Usopp yelled as he ran off.

"Bye!" Luffy responded.

"Are you sure you want that guy in our crew, Luffy?" Zoro asked, "He could be trouble."

"I got along with his father as a kid. I'm sure I can get along with him," Luffy responded.

"That's ensuring," Nami joked.
