"duel!"
"Daddy, who is raising a child, is going to have a duel!"
"Go and see it!"
The news that Daddy was going to duel with someone quickly spread in Logue Town!
Some people who didn't know what was going on followed him to have a look.
It was in a gladiatorial arena by the sea!
"Then, let the duel begin!"
Daddy handed a pistol to Usopp and said
"No, I don't need a pistol, I'll use a bow and arrow!"
Usopp said
"I promised Gretel that until my bounty exceeded his, I could only use bows and arrows!"
"Bow and arrow? Is it Gretel, the outlaw with a bounty of 20 million berries?" Daddy said
See, you still have an agreement between you!""
"Don't die here, kid!"
Daddy teased.
When Usopp heard this, he didn't care either.
"Don't worry, uncle, I won't die even if you die! I am known as Captain Usopp, and I have duelled with at least 500 people!"
Usopp's words came up again.
But Daddy believed it!
It is not impossible for a pirate who can be rewarded with a bounty of eight million by the navy to have some experience.
"Then, it's ready to go!"
Dadi turned around.
The two had their backs to each other.
Carol acted as a referee.
She seemed to be familiar with this kind of thing.
"You two take ten steps each, and when I count to one, turn around and shoot!"
"Whoever has the faster gun will win!"
"The loser is likely to have to pay the price of death!"
Obviously she is a cute little princess, but after these words came out of her mouth, she always had a dark feeling.
"Ten"
The two of them began to take a step according to Carol's words!
"Nine"
""Eight"
There were hundreds of spectators outside the two of them who came to watch this duel!
After hearing the news, Nami came and squeezed her way to the front with difficulty.
"Usopp?"
Nami suddenly shouted.
Unexpectedly, it was Usopp who was dueling with others!
Nami was quite shocked.
Of course she knew that Daddy was quite strong.
Usopp's expression was extremely serious, even if he heard Nami's voice, he didn't turn around to look.
The most important thing for him now is to win this game!
Even if he is holding a bow and arrow in his hand, the arrow shot out by the force of the wind is not slower than the bullet of a gun!
"seven"
"six"
"five"
"Is that person Usopp?"
"The big pirate who just had a bounty of eight million berries!"
"So awesome, actually dueling with Daddy!"
"What a rare peak showdown!"
"How dare you fight a duel with a gun while holding a bow and arrow!"
"There must be something very powerful about him!"
The voices of these people talking did not affect Usopp, but Daddy was a little distracted!
He can't lose!
If he loses, his daughter will become a street child or even be abducted!
When he thinks of this, Daddy feels a little panicked!
His hand holding the gun was shaking a little!
"Four"
"three"
"Two"
"one!"
The moment Carol's words fell, the two men turned around and shot at each other!
Usopp's hand was already on the bow string!
A metal star was already ready.
"Phew~"
"boom!"
The arrows and guns made sounds at the same time. Suddenly, Usopp seemed to feel a breath of death coming from the opposite side!
It was like a big black dog devouring people's hearts and taking a bite out of it, Usopp seemed to feel that the whole world had become quiet!
He tried hard to break away from the big black dog, and his body shook involuntarily for a moment!
However, at this critical moment, the bullet grazed his face and shot past him!
A trace of blood slowly flowed from Usopp's face!
Opposite him, Daddy was completely intact!
There was no injury at all on his body! Daddy "Gulu" swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a cold sweat flowed from his forehead. He was indeed undamaged, but his hat disappeared!
Yes, Usopp kept his hand, and the position where he shot the arrow was Daddy hat!
Because of a trace of fear in his heart, Daddy's gun slowed down!
But the most important thing is that Usopp turned his head to avoid his bullet!
The bullet only scratched his face!
"Plop~"
Daddy knelt down, and the gun in his hand fell to the ground.
"I lost!"
"I lost to yasopp back then. He advised me not to be a navy, but to protect my daughter and stay with her, but now I lost again!"
Daddy said to himself
"Yasopp?"
Usopp exclaimed in surprise: "Have you seen my father?""
"Eh? Yasopp, is this your father?"
Daddy said in surprise
"Yes, my name is Usopp, and Yasopp is my father!"
Usopp said proudly.
He actually defeated the enemy that his father had defeated before!
A strong sense of pride arose spontaneously.
He felt proud of his decision!
Fortunately, he agreed
"So that's it. I remembered that Yasopp once said that his son was called Usopp!"
"After that duel, he said: One bad father is enough, just go and accompany your daughter!"
"Since he did not kill me, I obeyed his words and resigned as captain of the navy."
Daddy recalled that evening.
He lost the duel, but won his life!
"Dad, do you blame yourself too?"
Usopp murmured.
He seemed to be starting to understand. When he stepped onto the Straw Hat Pirates' ship, he had already given up everything just for that illusory dream!
Usopp finally understood why. Before she died, his mother would also tell him that his father was a real man!
"That's right!"
Usopp said
"What?"
Daddy was a little confused.
"Dad is right, if it weren't for fear that your daughter would live on the street, I wouldn't be targeting your hat!"
Usopp smiled confidently.
Although the opponent in this battle was not strong, it gave him a feeling he had never experienced before!
In the moment just now, he even touched the illusory observationhaki!
"Hahaha, hahahaha~"
Daddy lay on the ground and laughed loudly.
"Is that so? It seems that becoming a good father is really the most correct thing to do!"
Although Daddy was smiling, there was a little sadness in his words!
Carol ran to Daddy's side with a cry in her eyes and threw herself into her father's arms. "Dad~"
"Big brother, please, don't kill my dad!"
Carol requested with tears in her eyes.
Finally she was willing to change her mind!
Usopp finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He slowly walked to Daddy's side, picked up the goggles, and then called Nami, and the two gradually faded away.
Finally, Usopp raised a hand and said with a smile: "Didn't I say that whoever wins can get the goggles!?"
At the same time, on a busy street in Logue Town.
Two big men over two meters tall yelled at a gentle girl with glasses: "It's because of you that our boss was arrested. Get up, we will catch you, and when the boss comes out, we will give you to the boss!"
"Damn female navy! We'll knock you down right now!"
Two vicious strong men bullied such a soft woman, and the people around them just watched the fight, not daring to step forward to help.
Because the two strong men were so tall, ordinary people would probably be kicked by them, maybe She was about to ascend to heaven!
This weak girl did not say a word, but watched the two strong men slashing at her!
Zoro, who was shopping on the side, happened to see this scene. He put his hand on the handle of the knife and prepared to attack but when he was about to rescue her, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder by someone.
Just as Zoro was dazed for a moment, two screams were heard.
Two strong men over two meters fell to the ground.
"oh?"
Zoro was a little surprised.
I didn't expect this to be a female swordsman!
She seems to have good swordsmanship.
"Zoro, don't be anxious."
At this time, the person next to Zoro spoke.
It was Gretel.
Considering that Zoro had no money on him, he still followed him to take a look.
After all, he still had some money in his backpack, and could afford a knife worth fifty thousand berries!
At this time, Tashigi chopped down two pirates in one fell swoop, but she accidentally lost her glasses because of her handsome posture!
Her myopia was very serious and she could only lie down and look for her glasses on the ground.
By chance, the glasses fell at Zoro's feet.
He bent down to pick up the glasses, and was about to hand them to Tashigi when he suddenly saw her face.
"Bang~"
A figure appeared in Zoro's mind.
It looked exactly like Tashigi in front of him!
He couldn't hold it back, and the glasses were crushed on the spot!
This time, the atmosphere was awkward!
Tashigi saw her glasses that had been crushed into pieces and exclaimed: "My glasses!"
"I, I didn't mean it!"
"You have to compensate me!"
"I have no money!"
"If you don't have money, make money and then pay it back to me!"
Zoro:…This atmosphere is really embarrassing.
He really doesn't have any money!"
"Let me give it to her. How much do your glasses cost?
Gretel stepped forward and asked, "Twenty thousand berries!""
Gretel didn't do any ink. He took out 20,000 berries from the pocket of his windbreaker and handed it to Tashigi.
"Ding~ The partner bond is triggered, please help Zoro untie the knot in his heart! Mission reward: Random legendary skill item!"
