Chapter 8: usopp, son of yasopp

Luffy, Yamato, zoro and Nami have left orange town and made their way to their next destination.

"Hey, Nami." Yamato begins. "What's the name of the island we're headed to?" He asks.

"Gecko island." She answers. "We should try to get a bigger ship while we are there." Luffy says as soon as he hears the name of the island. He smiles, wondering if he'll really meet usopp again.

As the four approach the island yells out at them. "Stop! Don't come any closer, or you'll face me and my 80,000 followers!" The voice yells. Luffy grins, knowing exactly who that is. Yamato simply frowns.

"You don't really have 80,000 people up there." He calls out. The voice fumbles for a second and reply's. "You've caught me! I actually have 10,000 followers!" And with that a few flags are moved around.

Yamato takes a second to use his overbservation haki. "It's just you and three kids." Yamato calls out. The three aforementioned kids run off leaving their leader alone. "Don't leave me!" The voice yells out.

"Hey!" Luffy calls. "Are you usopp? Yasopps kid?" Luffy asks. The now named usopp calls back. "Yes, but how'd you know who I am?" He asks confused.

"I met him when I was younger, we're gonna come ashore and we can talk more." He offers. Usopp immediately agrees, eager to hear more about his dad.

The four plus usopp enter a restaurant and begin eating and talking. "You know my dad?" Usopp asks Luffy who nods. "Sure do! He's the sniper on red haired shanks' crew." Luffy says smiling. Yamato also adds to the conversation mentioning now shanks is one of the four emperors.

"Wow, he must be pretty amazing." Usopp says in awe. "Yeah, he once shot the wings off of a fly, he could shoot just about anything."' Luffy says fondly thinking back to the time he met yasopp.

"So usopp, I'm working on getting a crew put together on my journey to become the king of the pirates. You should join my crew." Luffy says to the sniper. Usopp nods. "Ok but I'll be the captain."

"No!" Luffy, zoro and Yamato all day. "But you can be the sniper. Speaking of the crew and sailing though, do you know anywhere here that we can get a ship?" Luffy asks, already remembering that Kaya originally gave them the going merry the last time around.

"Uhh well I don't know, I definitely wouldn't check that mansion on the hill. Anyways, I've gotta go, later!" Usopp says as he runs out.

"That was weird." Nami comments, everyone nods agreeing with her. Just then three kids burst in asking where usopp was.

"Ah that was great!" Luffy says, his stomach looking bigger. "The captain?" One of the three boys says fearing the worse. "That's right.." Yamato says. "We ate him!" Zoro finished grinning madly.

"Ah!" The three screams run around worriedly. Nami punches the three on the head. "Idiots." She grumbles. "Usopp left, towards the mansion on that hill." She explains to them.

"Oh!" One of the three says. "He probably went to see kaya! He goes there to lie to her."

"Lie to her?" Yamato asks confused. "Yeah! She's been sick so captain usopp goes there to tell her stories to help cheer her up." One of the three boys says.

"I want to go check it out, maybe we can ask her for a ship." Luffy says. They exit the restaurant, Luffy quickly wraps his arms around the other three and slingshots then towards the mansion.

"Hey usopp!" Luffy says cheerfully as they land in a pile next to him. "Oh uh, hey Luffy. This is kaya." Luffy stands up and waves. "Hey! Do you have a ship we could buy?" Luffy asks the young mistress.

Kaya takes a second to think and then speaks. "Well I could ask merry about it…." She says but is soon interrupted by a voice.

"I thought I told you that you were not welcome here?" A butler says to usopp, approaching him. "Yeah, yeah. I was just leaving." Usopp says bitterly. "Come on guys, I'll see you later kaya."

They all depart leaving behind kaya and the butler. "I think I need to go for a walk." Usopp says. "I'll come with you." Luffy adds.

The two begin to walk and eventually come upon a cliff and see the butler meeting a strange man.

"Get down."'usopp whispers, making him and Luffy lie down to listen. "That damn butler, I can't believe they're gonna attack the village." Usopp whispers as they listen in. "We should get the others. We'll need to prepare." Luffy says quietly to usopp while they wait for the butler and stranger to leave.
