I, Naruto, started out with Hinata feeding me imported candy.

"Although my father was a pirate, I was proud of him and never felt ashamed."

"But why does this butler harbor such deep hatred for pirates?"

"Could it be... that he was bullied by pirates, or that his family was bullied by pirates?"

"Even if he was bullied by pirates, what does that have to do with my dad?"

"I absolutely believe in my dad; he's not that kind of despicable pirate."

"He must be a true man, a brave sea warrior, and a very trustworthy guy who keeps his word."

"Although my mother and I have waited for so many years, we still haven't been able to bring him back."

"But I absolutely believe that Dad cares about us."

"He loves us."

"There were just reasons why I had to leave."

Usopp said to Luffy.

"You're right, I hate that guy too."

"How dare you insult pirates in front of me."

"If Roronoa Zoro hadn't stopped me today, I definitely would have attacked that head butler. He's just too awful."

"What he said was an insult to pirates."

"I hope I never run into that head butler again, and I hope I never run into that scoundrel at sea."

"If I ever run into him, I'll beat him up every time I see him."

"No matter who he is, as long as he dares to insult pirates."

"I will beat him until he begs for mercy on his knees."

Luffy spoke to Usopp behind him without turning his head.

"He is the young lady's head butler; there's no way we could have met him at sea."

“Apart from buying things at the market, he rarely leaves that mansion.”

"As a butler, he is perhaps a qualified and competent head butler."

"But as a friend..."

"That guy is not worth being friends with."

"He's a sharp-tongued guy."

Usopp said.

Chapter 539 The Greatest Confidant in My Life!

　"Although that guy is a head butler, I can smell a peculiar scent on him."

"Although I can't quite put my finger on what kind of person this guy is."

"But I think he won't be just a simple butler."

"It's that simple."

"Actually, I hope you won't be angry about this."

"It doesn't matter what others say, as long as they always admire you, their pirate father, in their hearts."

"Yosbumi is indeed an outstanding pirate; I did see him when I was young."

"And I especially envy him for being a sharpshooter."

“He really stayed in our village for a long time.”

"And the pirate ship your father is on is the same pirate ship that Shanks owns."

"That red-haired Shanks is the captain, and he's also a man I admire."

"This straw hat of mine was given to me by Shanks."

“I was very young at that time.”

"I hope Shanks will bring me to his pirate ship so I can become a proper pirate."

"But Shanks said I was too young and not worthy of being a pirate."

“At that time, I made a vow.”

"I must go to sea and become a qualified pirate."

"And I want to be a captain just like Shanks."

"Shanks is a loyal and good captain, especially when he learned that I was going to become a pirate."

"Although he didn't agree to let me go to sea on a pirate ship, he didn't stop me from pursuing my dream."

He gave me his only and most precious straw hat.

He also said that he hoped we could meet in the ocean one day.

“I can personally give him this straw hat.”

"Shanks placed his greatest hopes on me, and I will never let him down."

"Actually, your father also placed a lot of hopes on you."

"So I hope you won't give up on yourself, but will definitely pull yourself together again."

“Stand up bravely like your dad.”

"Be a brave sea warrior."

Luffy's words deeply moved Usopp behind him.

I never imagined that someone would value my thoughts so much, be willing to open up to me, and listen to my stories.

Everyone in the village thought he was a boastful liar.

In fact, the stories he boasted about and made up were the very realities he fantasized about and wanted to achieve.

I really hope that one day I can become a real pirate.

The scenes from adventure stories set on the high seas can become a reality for you.

0 ....

Although it was said to be something Usopp had imagined, he absolutely believed it.

Those scenes must exist somewhere in the ocean.

It must truly exist in the ocean.

"Usopp has finally found a true friend in his life."

"I'll definitely cherish Captain Luffy in front of me."

"Maybe I'll follow Luffy and become a pirate someday."

"In this respect, it really does have some similarities to Shanks' pirate ship."

"Luffy wants to be a captain like Shanks."

"Usopp wants to be a sharpshooter like his father, Yasopp."

Naruto Uzumaki narrowed his eyes slightly, and then he spoke.

...scholar.

Chapter 540 Damn it, how dare they trample on my honor!

　"About right."

"Otherwise, Luffy wouldn't have been interested in this guy who doesn't have much strength, and wouldn't have personally chased him here to persuade him."

At that moment, not far away, Kakashi Hatake looked up at the scene before him, let out a long breath, and then spoke.

"Really? Do you really think so?"

"Actually, that's what I think too."

"In my heart, I've never resented my father's choice back then."

"In this great age of pirates, where pirates are stirring, I set sail with the dreams in my heart."

"What a brave man he is."

When Usopp heard Luffy praising his father so highly, he immediately became interested.

All those previous worries have long been forgotten.

With a sudden movement, he jumped up from behind and lay down next to Luffy.

"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"

"I think it's the young lady's head butler."

"Although he knows your father is a child, he has no idea that your father is the famous sharpshooter Yasopp from the Shanks pirate ship."

"If he had ever heard of your father's name, he certainly wouldn't have said such a thing."

"They'll be so shocked by your dad's name that they'll never dare to bully you like that again."

"You should have revealed your father's name back then and really shocked that guy."

Luffy said to Usopp.

"At the time, I was so angry at what that guy said that I didn't think about anything else."

"But even if I say it, I'm afraid it won't have much effect."

"Although my father is quite famous, as a head butler, he may not know much about the world of One Piece."

"An ordinary person would never have heard of my father's name."

"Unless this guy is also a pirate, he should be able to understand how powerful my dad, Yasopp, is."

"What an outstanding pirate!"

"Unfortunately, that guy wasn't a pirate; he was just an ordinary person."
