After leaving the Golden Merry, the homeless Usopp had no choice but to sleep on the streets for the time being. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Usopp, I'm here to heal you!" Following the scent of Usopp, Chopper found Usopp and brought medicine to treat him.

Usopp's injuries in the afternoon were all fatal wounds, and the Frank family, who had broken down the houseboat, had no intention of showing mercy. Although there is no grudge between the two sides, can Usopp, who is carrying 200 million in cash, not be targeted? As a gangster gang in the capital of seven waters, the Frank family itself is not a good kind, and it would be strange if they could show mercy to Usopp, who is a pirate!

And in terms of identity, the Frank family also has the advantage and is not afraid to make things bigger, they are just gangsters in the city. It's a big deal, it's a big deal to be caught by the police and locked up for a few days and fined some money. But Usopp's identity is a pirate, and if he is caught by the navy, he will be sentenced directly, and there are several wanted criminals on the ship of the Straw Hats who have been rewarded for their fortunes.

Of course, Usopp also had to be glad that his head was not rewarded for the time being, otherwise it would have been used by the Frank family in exchange for the bounty at this time.

"Chopper, we're no longer companions, so you better go back!" Seeing Chopper running over to heal himself, Usopp was also very relieved, but he finally held back the emotion in his heart and shouted at Chopper with an iron heart: "Get back to me!

Originally, with the injuries on Usopp's body, he had to recuperate for a few days before he could move. But Usopp actually challenged Luffy despite his injuries at all, which is simply an act of looking for death.

In the afternoon, if Nami and Nokigao hadn't found Usopp lying dying on the street in time and asked Chopper to rescue him, it was one thing whether Usopp would have survived at that time.

It didn't take long for Usopp, who heard the footsteps again, to think that Chopper had run back again, and without looking, he said, "Didn't I tell you to go back?"

"It's me!" it wasn't Chopper, it was William. When he came, William asked Sanji to make some nutritious dishes for Usopp, and he brought them over. William sat next to Usopp and put down the food and nagged, "Really, if you don't eat something, how can you win Luffy's monster!"

Usopp looked at the lunch box on the ground, and wanted to try Sanji's craft, but when he thought that he was no longer a member of the Straw Hats, he immediately looked away again. He hadn't eaten anything since noon, and it would be an absolute lie to say that he wasn't hungry.

"Eat it when you're hungry!This is Sanji's food!" William specifically reminded Usopp that this is Sanji's food, and if it was Usopp, he should know that this dish was not made for a partner, but a chef made this food for a hungry person.

Sure enough, Usopp immediately devoured Sanji's food after hearing this, and was so moved that he didn't forget to glance at William, for fear that William would despise him.

"Don't look at me like that, I owe a favor to the Merry!" Seeing Usopp looking at him, William did not continue to say why, but asked thoughtfully, "What do you want to do after retaking the Merry?"

After filling his stomach, Usopp said sadly, "I want to take the Merry to the East China Sea!"

"That's right!" it seemed that Usopp had no intention of venturing on the Great Voyage, but William did not forget to warn him, "But if the Merry continues in its current state, you will be killed at sea!"

"・・・・・・" heard William's reminder, and Usopp was silent. Of course, he knew that the Golden Merry would not be able to return to the East China Sea under the current situation, not to mention the various dangers in the Great Route. If you don't have enough luck and strength, you can't sail on the great routes.

"But I'm willing to be your bodyguard as a reward for the Merry!" If Usopp really wants to leave the Straw Hat Pirates in the end, then there is no need for William to stay. Of course, William still has a very important thing to do now, and that is to rescue Nicole Robin. He could have changed all of this, protected the Golden Merry, and even kept Nicole Robin out of danger, but he missed the opportunity.

At least in William's eyes, he thought it was his responsibility, although these things happened while he was in a coma, but William, as a traverser, had long expected these things to happen, but did not force them to change. Of course, the course of the Straw Hats is determined by the recording compass and the captain of the road space, but William still blames himself.

"William, you ・・・・・・" Usopp couldn't understand for a moment what William said about repaying the Merry, but he was moved to tears when he heard that William was willing to help him escort the Golden Merry back to the East China Sea.

He had also heard about William from Nami before, and it seemed that he also refused Luffy's invitation at first, and even got into a big fight with Luffy. It's just that I don't know why William suddenly admitted defeat later, and so far William hasn't said why. He only knew that William's purpose in joining the Straw Hats was to live freely, and for this purpose he even did not hesitate to fight the world's strongest swordsman "Hawkeye" Jorakel Mihawk.

Even now, the Straw Hats only know that William served as a naval colonel, but they don't know why William chose to betray, and they don't know what William's goal of "to survive" means.

"But only if you win Luffy, brave sea warrior!" William didn't continue, some things weren't ready to be spoken.

However, William would repay the kindness of the Golden Merry to him anyway, and if it weren't for the Merry's ship energy, maybe William wouldn't have this idea. But he met the ship elves of the Merry, so William would never give up on the companion who had saved his life.

"Usopp is leaving, Robin is missing! Our regiment seems to be disintegrating!" The decadent Chopper feels that what happened today is like a nightmare: Usopp, his best friend in play, actually chooses to leave, and their companion Golden Merry is also announced to be about to be scrapped, and Nicole Robin, who had been shopping with him, suddenly disappears from his side.

At ten o'clock in the evening, outside the city of the Seven Waters, the location of the Golden Merry was docked:

"Usopp is coming!" Chopper, who had been standing on the deck, waited for Usopp to appear. In fact, his heart is very conflicted like everyone else, that is, he hopes that Usopp can appear, but he hopes that Usopp will not come, and they don't want to see the duel scene between Usopp and Luffy.

After disembarking from the ship, Luffy said to his partners on deck, "You all stay on the ship for me, don't interfere in the duel between me and Usopp!"

It's not that everyone doesn't want to stop this absolute, but they can't hurt Usopp's self-esteem, they all know that Usopp is usually a very timid person, and this time he actually openly proposed a duel with Luffy, who is even stronger than him. So at this time, everyone knows that they can't trample on their self-esteem as a man.

"You're brave enough to come here!" Seeing Usopp exuding manhood, Luffy was stunned for a moment, and then said seriously: "Don't regret it, this is the battle you proposed!"

He knew that since Usopp dared to propose a duel and dare to go to the appointment on time, this had already shown Usopp's determination. Whether it was recognition of Usopp's courage or respect for Usopp as a challenger, Luffy could not refuse this duel.

"Of course, I'll make you pay!" Facing the serious Luffy, Usopp said without the slightest timidity: "Don't compare me with those who don't know your details, I know your abilities well!"

Knowing himself and winning all battles, Usopp knows Luffy's abilities very well, but the same Luffy also knows Usopp very well.
