Chapter 30: The Conspiracy Revealed Usopp's Determination!
East China Sea, Xirob Village, Usopp pushed open the door, welcomed Luffy and the others in, touched his head and sneered: "The family is small, don't mind, it's going to be one night." Nami is a girl, so you can sleep in the room in the house, and a few of us men will squeeze in one room, are you okay? "The room was really small, only a living room, two bedrooms.
"It's already good, thank you Usopp!" Luffy smiled, it had been an afternoon since they came out of the Kaya Manor, and they wanted to comfort Usopp, but they didn't expect his recovery ability to be good, and he was not hit by Krabaatle, but instead took them around, Xirob Village is not a big village, there are only about a hundred or so households, there are two roads to enter the village, there are two large slopes, on the north and south sides of the island, Luffy and their ship is moored on the north coast. There are no recreational facilities on the island, and the village is mainly engaged in farming and fishing, which is boring and ordinary when the sun rises and rests at sunset.
After a night of silence, several people quickly fell asleep, and the crescent moon quietly rose on the willow branches.
The next day, just after dawn, Usopp got up and walked to the village.
"Oh no, the pirates are coming, not good, the pirates are coming!" Usopp shouted and screamed, causing the villagers to chase him with brooms and farm tools, and Usopp laughed and avoided the villagers, and smiled happily at the smoke rising from the village.
"Do you do this every day?" Suddenly, a voice came from Usopp's side, and Usopp fell from the trunk of the tree and fell into the bushes.
"It's you, Luffy!" Usopp raised his head and said angrily, "Don't jump out and be scared, okay?" ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Hooking his foot on the branch of a tree, Luffy fell to the ground with a roll, "I saw that you got up early in the morning, and I was a little curious, so I followed and took a look." ”
"Well, as I told you yesterday, when my mother was critically ill, I hoped that my father would show up, and every day I ran to tell my mother that the pirates were coming, and the pirates were coming, hoping that my mother would get better." Usopp patted the dirt off his body, "But my mother still went, and since then, I have been running to the village every day to shout that the pirates are coming, and the pirates are coming." At first, the villagers believed it, but gradually they didn't believe it, and every time they came to me with something, hehehe, I brought a lot of life to this boring village and did a lot of good things! ”
Luffy remembered the fairy tale he told his children, "Here Comes the Wolf!" He shook his head at Usopp and said, "You can't do this, what if there are really pirates?" ”
"No, this village is very poor and remote, and there will be no pirates coming!" Usopp said confidently.
"Aren't we pirates?" Luffy retorted. Usopp's face was blue and white.
"Don't take it for granted, if you really want to help them, you have to raise their vigilance, exercise their physique, and make them have the ability to resist, not like now, they have lost their vigilance, even if there are really pirates coming, will they be able to react?" Luffy said sternly, and Usopp lowered his head and didn't say anything.
Luffy shook his head, "Usopp, tell me about you when you were a child, and in exchange, I'll tell you something about your father." ”
Luffy wants to know more about Usopp and see if he is suitable for his own ship, as I said before, skills can be learned, but the character must be good.
The two walked and chatted, along the coastline, blowing the sea breeze very comfortably.
On the sea, a small sailboat sailed on the sea, and an uncle with hair like a sheep holding a glasses case smiled and said, "The gift that Miss Koya has prepared for Mr. Krabatel will definitely like it!" "This person is none other than Merry, the butler who was sent out by Koya to buy glasses for Krabatel.
Suddenly, a pirate ship drove out from behind the pumice around the corner, and a hook rope hung on Merry's ship, and the two pirates slid down the hook rope, and the bright blade rested on Merry's neck: "Be honest, or I'll kill you." The pirate said viciously, and put Merry on the pirate ship, and removed all the things he had purchased.
"Captain Zangao, we've caught a passerby." One of the pirates laughed.
"Oh? I ask you, where are you from? Zangao, who was wearing a pair of heart-shaped glasses, pushed his top hat and asked.
"I... I'm from the village of Sirob, and my lady Koya asked me to buy a gift for the butler of Krabatel! "Please don't hurt me, I don't have any money." ”
"Sirob Village, Miss Koya! Kill him! Zangao said suddenly. A pirate stabbed Merry in the left heart.
"For... Why—" Merry's mouth was gurgling blood, and she couldn't see it alive.
"Let you die to understand, Butler Klabat is our captain Brooklyn, he told us to kill Miss Koya this evening, since you have seen us, we can't keep you, let alone you are still Miss Koya's butler, we can't let you reveal our location. Prepare them, understand? Idiot! Zangao said coldly, "Throw him into the sea for me to feed the fish!" ”
A pirate carried Merry and threw her into the water, and the waves engulfed her. Blood stained the water red.
Merry was swallowed up by the waves, wrapped in the drift and drifted forward, like a miracle, and actually rushed to the shoreline.
"Huh? What is that? Luffy, who was chatting with Usopp, suddenly saw a man lying on his stomach on the beach, who looked very strange, with hair like a sheep.
"Mei... Uncle Merry! Usopp suddenly screamed, rushed over quickly, and picked up Merry's body, only to see that Merry had a knife wound on her chest, which was soaked in the seawater, white, her lips were white, and her breath was weak.
"Quick, take him to the doctor!" Luffy hurriedly said, picked up Merry, and the two quickly ran into the village.
In the village, an old villager put away the medical box and exhaled: "It's okay, it's okay, Mei Li's heart is on the right side, otherwise she would have died a long time ago!" ”
"Is Uncle Merry okay?" Usopp hurriedly asked.
"Fortunately, the knife didn't hit the heart, the rescue was timely, and he was out of danger, as for whether he can wake up, it depends on himself."
"Thank you, Dr. Krauss." After sending off Dr. Klaus, Usopp rubbed his hair with his hands and said angrily, "What the hell is going on?!" ”
"U... Uso... Merry said weakly and intermittently with his eyes closed, he didn't even have the strength to open them.
"Uncle Merry, I'm here, what do you want to say?" Usopp shook Merry's hand and said with concern.
"Carat... Bar... Special... You... Be... Ahem... Pirate... Chloe... Pirate... Evening... Coming... Attack... Village... Save... Save... Save... Miss! ”
Merry's voice was low and intermittent, but fortunately, Luffy and the others were very human, and they could barely hear it clearly, but the content made several people look at each other.
That Krabatel, who has always been a good man in the village, is actually a pirate?
That Krabatel butler who has been helping everyone is actually a pirate?!
The Butler of Krabatel, who had always hated pirates and thought they were filthy blood, was actually a pirate!!
"Krabatel is actually the pirate Chloe, the captain of the Black Cat Pirates who is notorious in the East China Sea and has been dead for almost three years? Hundreds, Clowe! How is this possible!! Usopp's eyes widened in disbelief, but this is the news that Uncle Merry was seriously injured, and there should be no fake. It's not good, Keya is in danger, I'm going to save Keya! Usopp's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he hurriedly rushed out of the door, but was caught by Luffy at once.
"What are you doing, you let go of me, or I'll fight you together!" Usopp, who was red-eyed, suddenly pulled out his slingshot and aimed it at Luffy, "Koya is in danger, don't stop me!" ”
"Calm down!! Do you want to die? Can you beat that Chloe? Luffy yelled, "You can't save people at all, but you're going to put yourself in it!" ”
"Baiji Chloe, I have also heard of him, it is said that he is as treacherous as a fox and cunning as a ghost, and the navy has suffered losses in his hands many times, and he has not been caught many times, but has lost a lot of people." Zoro said lightly, "If such a brutal pirate really wanted to be unfavorable to Miss Koya, he would have done it a long time ago, and he would never wait until today, what purpose should he have." ”
"But what is there to be for Miss Koya? She doesn't have anything left to her other than her father's bequeath? That's right, family property! It's family property! Nami's eyes suddenly lit up and she exclaimed, "Chloe is planning her family property!" ”
"That can't be! If you want wealth, won't Chloe just grab it? Usopp retorted, "With his ability, the wealth he has robbed is definitely more than the wealth of the Koya family." ”
"Maybe he's had enough of the life of a pirate and wants to live a stable life as a rich man?" Luffy rubbed his chin and thought, "Three years ago, he cheated to death, changed his name and faded out of people's sight, and then it took three years to gain the trust of the villagers and Miss Koya, so that even if he used the suicide note to pass on the family property to an outsider, it would not seem abrupt, and people would easily accept it." Then let the people of the Black Cat Pirates act, pretend to kill Keya by mistake, and leave a suicide note, which is justified! Well... If I were Chloe, I would still kill people and kill all the people of the Black Cat Pirates, leaving no one alive! So that I can live a stable life! ”
Luffy's analysis made the three of Zoro stunned, their mouths opened wide, and Luffy had a black line: "What are you doing?" What are you surprised about? That's the basic logic, okay. "The intrigues in the previous life, the deception, and the similar TV series I watched a lot, but I can't analyze it, Luffy is a traverser in vain.
"I think Luffy is right, the truth of the matter should be like this." Zoro nodded and said in agreement.
"Luffy is so smart!" Nami's eyes turned into starry eyes, "I actually deduced the truth of the matter from a few words." ”
Luffy was sweating profusely, and he had the impression that he was like a schoolboy pointing at a criminal and saying, "There is only one truth, and the criminal is you."
"What are we speculating about here? Gotta hurry up and save Kya! Usopp hurried.
"Keya is not in danger for the time being." Luffy smiled and said, "I guess Chloe won't do it himself, but will fake his hands and pirates!" If the pirates don't enter the village, there will be a problem with his inheritance, so..."
"So, we only need to do one thing!" Nami understood, "We just need to keep the pirates out of the village and keep them from entering the village!" ”
"yes, as long as we don't let the villagers know that pirates are coming, it's business as usual!" Usopp said happily.
"It's not us, it's you, we have nothing to do with it!" Luffy said indifferently, "We are not obligated to help you!" ”
"Uhh
"Luffy?! How can you do that! Nami puffed out her cheeks and said, "Zoro, tell me about him!" ”
"He's the captain, and besides, what he said is not wrong, this matter has nothing to do with us." Zoro said, waving his hand.
"It doesn't matter, can you sit back and watch those pirates do whatever they want?" Nami roared, "I misjudged you. ”
"Without you, I could have beaten them back!" Usopp gritted his teeth and ran out with his large shoulder bag.
"Wait for me, I'll go with you." Nami ran out, and the voice could be heard in the distance, "But the treasure of those pirates will be mine." ”
"Looks like we need a big ship, and only Miss Koya can help us in this village..."Luffy muttered, "so Miss Koya can't be fine." ”
"Our navigators went to the front, eh, it's nerve-wracking. Zoro, you go and protect her, don't let anyone hurt her, if someone hurts her, you cut them off! No problem, Zoro! ”
"No problem, Captain, leave it to me!" Zoro nodded, "I won't let anyone hurt our navigators!" ”
