One Piece Different Beginnings

Enter Usopp The Liar

Zoro was snoring peacefully for a while now, no distractions, no noise it almost felt like heaven itself. Until he was woken up by the sound of somebody crying in pain.

Zoro looked up and saw the Navigator pummeling the Captain,

"So much for the Power of the Grand Line…" Zoro said with a sweatdrop on the side of his head

Zoro stood up slowly stretching and picking up his swords. He decided to go help his moron of a captain.

"Hey woman!" Zoro said walking towards the yawning

"What's with all the noise? Can't a guy get any sleep around here?"

Nami then dropped the beaten and somehow bruised captain and took a deep breath

"This moron refuses to listen to a thing I've said!" Nami said yelling and pointing to the Captain that was now beginning to stand up

"I keep telling him we need a chef and doctor as soon as possible and he keeps going on about a damn Musician!"

Zoro blinked

"A musician…" Zoro said trying to understand why they need that of all things. He looked at the captain and decided to ask him. He is from the Grand Line maybe he has a good use for them Zoro thought

"Hey Captain, why a musician?" Zoro asked

Luffy stood of looking slightly serious. He readjusted his hat and then

"Every pirate crew needs a musician!" Luffy said hands on his hips and a giant smile on his face

He was met with a Swift kick from the Navigator knocking him down.

"Honestly, you morons haven't even planned your journey" Nami said having her palm not my face and sounding disappointed

"Who told you that?" Zoro asked her

"The Captain already has a plan on how to get to the Grand Line" Zoro said deciding to take a seat

Luffy stood up then having recovered from the last kick he received

Seriously, First Bellemere now her, How do they Hit Me! Luffy thought

"Yea what Zoro said!" Luffy said smiling and deciding to take a seat next to the bored Swordsman

Nami stood there listening hoping to god he didn't say Musician again

"So, mind filling me in?" Nami asked in a much more calm voice than before

"Sure. So first we have to get a sniper, it shouldn't be too hard to find one" Luffy said deciding not to speak of Usopp as that would arouse suspicion later on

A Sniper? Nami thought

"After that we need a cook, that is an essential to survive on the sea" Luffy said sounding smart but in reality he was drooling and lost in his own world of Meat, Meat and surprisingly More Meat

"Then…" Zoro and Nami looked at him finally with some hope for this moron

"We kick some bad guys ass and go to the Grandline!" Luffy said smiling seeming satisfied with his plan

Nami slapped herself for ever having hope and Zoro just laughed looking like he was having the time of his life

I can't tell whether he's actually this stupid or is just acting Zoro thought

Zoro and Nami failed to notice the waves getting a little bit faster under them

Well… Maybe i'll use my powers just this once to set us on course for Syrup Village Luffy thought excited to meet this Usopp who he heard about every damn day from his father Yasopp

I don't even know the guy and I feel like i've known him for years… Luffy thought deciding to put the torture he endured at the back of his mind

A Few Hours Later…

A fairly skinny teen could be seen running into a village. He wore an olive green bandana, had black wooly hair, prominent lips, a very long nose and was wearing some brown overalls. As soon as he got into the village he yelled

"Pirates! Pirates are coming! Run for your lives pirates!"

Suddenly the Villagers all came out with household items. Some holding frying pans and others holding a rake

Instead of going to fight the "Pirates" However they started to chase the Teenager

"I was just joking! HAHAHAHA" The Boy screamed while laughing

The Villagers however didn't stop chasing him

"You damn brat you've lied to us for the Last Time!" They yelled as they pursued him into the Forest

The Villagers ended up losing the Boy in brown overalls who had climbed up into a tree and decided to go back to their daily boring lives

"I fooled the whole village again" The Boy said laughing silently in the tree

"I have brought even more excitement to this boring village today" THe boy said smiling and resting on the tree

"There he is!" A voice came from under the tree

The boy looked down to see who it was and saw 3 boys standing down there

"Oh it's you guys!"

"Good Morning Captain Usopp!" All three of them said standing straight

"Good morning Carrot and Pepper, where is Onion?" The boy called Usopp asked hopping down from the tree and nearly messing up his landing

Carrot the taller boy wearing a black hoodie and orange shorts responded "He is probably still sleeping" Pepper the shorter boy with green hair, a green shirt and blue shorts said "Yea Probably?" Sounding unsure of himself

"How much does he want to sleep?" Usopp thought looking at the sky

Suddenly a boy came running to them with a tear or two in his eye

"Is that.. Hey Onion it's you!" Usopp exclaimed looking at the shortest one of the boys. He was wearing glasses, a blue vest with a yellow shirt underneath and brown shorts.

"This is bad! Pirates are coming!" Onion said out loud tears rolling down his cheeks and struggling to get breath

"You're lying" Usopp, Carrot and Pepper said at the same time

"No, I'm not! The flag had Buggy's symbol on it I swear!" Onion yelled

"What did you say!" Usopp yelled his eyes almost opping out of his sockets

Usopp tried to run away saying he has a disease that will kill him if he didn't go eat snacks. The three boys stopped him however and Onion said "It isn't a big ship, it is just two small ships" Usopp suddenly gained a look of confidence

"Alright let's go and face them!" Usopp said with a smile and marching towards the pirates.

"Ok Captain!" The boys yelled following him

At the shore

"Wow we got here much earlier than i thought" Nami said stepping onto the island and stretching

"You sure you aren't just a crappy Navigator?" Zoro said also stepping off and instantly getting punched in the head by the Navigator

"Come on Zoro cut Nami some slack it's been an "Interesting" day" Luffy said stepping off the ship and trying to defend Nami as he did make the Ship go a little bit faster to make up for lost time

"Thank You!" Nami said. At Least somebody was appreciating her efforts

"Anyways there should be a Village here Captain" Nami said looking at her map. "Although it is a pretty small one, doubt we will find a proper ship here"

"Well.. At Least there's food!" Luffy said. Always looking at the positives

"And Booze" Zoro added equally excited leading Nami to facepalm once more

Across from Luffy, Nami and Zoro. 4 People were hiding behind a log on a cliff.

"Is that them Onion?" Usopp asked even more confident than before sure they have weapons but they don't even look like they know how to use them! "They don't look scary at all" Pepper Added

"By the way Luffy have you noticed?" Zoro asked Luffy suddenly

"Yeah i did" Luffy added on as well looking towards the group up on the hill

Nami also followed their line of sight and was the first to ask "Who are you?"

"They found us! Sorry Captain Usopp!" The three boys yelled as they ran away leaving Usopp all alone

Usopp stood up shaking, Luffy saw him and everything lined up. The long nose and the name. There was no mistaking it infront of him was standing the person whose name he had heard a million times each day for Years! The same stories were told to him over and over. The son of Yasopp and his future Sniper. Luffy didn't know whether to punch him as revenge for the torture or to be happy. He decided on the latter however as punching him won't help in convincing him to join

"I am the Great Pirate Fleet Leader Captain Usopp. It is best you leave this place now and cause no harm. Otherwise my 80 million men will not forgive you!" Usopp said with his arms crossed looking straight at the pirates

"You are joking right?" Nami said seeing the obvious and stupid lie

"Wha! I been Caught!" Usopp said shocking and falling down the cliff

"See you even said it yourself.." Nami said with a sweatdrop on the side of her head. This guy might be even dumber than Luffy…

"Argh! Did i seriously just say that! Bad Planning!" Usopp started yelling while panicking and spinning around with his hands on the side of his head

Luffy started laughing in the background calling Usopp stupid and funny

"Hey! Don't you underestimate me! I ama man with high self esteem and Everyone respects me!" Usopp said getting his slingshot and aiming at Luffy

A Slingshot? All three of them thought

"I've never heard of pirates that use Slingshots before" Nami said looking amused mocking Usopp and his "Weapon"

Luffy suddenly became a whole lot more serious and said "Now that you've drawn your weapon are you willing to use it? Weapons aren't for threats they are for action"

Usopp gulped and Zoro caught onto what Luffy was doing and joined him

He slightly unsheathed his sword with his thumb and said "What you are looking at now are real pirates"

Usopp stayed silent sweating and slightly shaking. The green haired one had a terrifying glare but it was nothing compared to that of the man in the strawhat behind him. What should he do?

Nami was also slightly scared. Those two hadn't been this serious since Buggy. What were they going to do to this Usopp person Nami thought in horror remembering her previous experiences with Pirates.

In the end Usopp fell to his Knees and said "Real pirates definitely have more punch behind their words"

Both Zoro and Luffy started laughing.

Luffy finally stopped laughing and said "You are Usopp aren't you? I know your father Yasopp is his name right?"

That caught Usopp's attention. How does that man know his Father?

At a restaurant in the village

Luffy and the others were all eating at a restaurant. Luffy told Usopp all about Yasopp. Well not all he left out the part of him going to the Grand Line. He just told him that he joined the Crew of a Pirate Named Shanks that visited his Village when he was a kid and that he tortured him with Stories about his only son. Usopp rubbed the back of his head and apologised.

"So. My old man sailing the seas as a Pirate huh?" Usopp asked to no one is particular

"Yea that's pretty much it!" Luffy said with food in his mouth eating like a pig as always

"Well do you know where we can get a ship around here?" Luffy asked Shocking his crewmates. He asked an actual Good Question? Both of them thought

"W-What no have you seen our village it's so small" Usopp replied oddly nervous

"Well what about that mansion over there?" Nami asked pointing to the Mansion on the hill

"O-Oh no, stay away from that place. The girl that lives there and owns it is a frail sick girl who is always stuck in there. She is in fragile condition" Usopp said hoping the Pirates won't bother her

"W-Well i should be going now. Tell the owner of the place you are Usopp's friends" Usopp said as he ran out the restaurant

Suddenly the three boys from before came into the shop and faces the three Pirates.

"W-W-What have you done with the Captain" they asked Just then Luffy coincidentally burped and Zoro got an Idea

He slowly looked at the kids and with a menacing smirk said "We ate him!" shocking the poor kids

"AGGHHH Cannibals!" The kids yelled while looking at Nami for some unknown reason

"Why are you looking at me!" Nami yelled enraged

Luffy just smiled mysteriously under his hat Looking at Zoro and Nami. Then he told the kids that they were just joking and asked where they think Usopp would be

"Oh, Usopp would be at the mansion then. He always goes there to lie to the Girl that lives there" Carrot said

"That's horrible!" Nami said getting the wrong idea

"Oh no it's actually very good. He tells her stories to make her happy" Pepper corrected and Onion and Carrot both nodded

The crew decided to go to the Mansion and see if they can indeed try to get a Ship from the Girl that lives there.
