Chapter 15 I, Xia Chen, Roger's nephew

"You actually have 8000 million subordinates? So powerful?"

Xia Chen showed an expression of amazement.

Nami, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but turn her head and look at him in confusion when she heard what Xia Chen said.

How could you believe such obvious bragging?

However, when she saw the hint of amusement on Xia Chen's lips, she felt that there might be something fun to watch.

Xia Chen continued, "Hello, my name is Gol D. Xia Chen, and I am the nephew of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger. However, I don't have as many subordinates as you do, probably only a few tens of thousands!"

"Of course, this is nothing compared to the number of your subordinates, Captain Usopp, but there are some very capable people among my subordinates!"

"There are several with bounties exceeding 10 billion!"

Having said this, Xia Chen paused, and then said to Usopp with a teasing tone:

"By the way, I would like to ask Captain Usopp how many of your 8000 million subordinates have bounties over 10 billion. I'm sure there must be a lot of them, right?"

"Five...five hundred million?"

Usopp didn't hear what Xia Chen said next at all. All that echoed in his mind was the word "10 billion".

In an instant, cold sweat wet his back, sweat on his forehead kept dripping, and his legs and feet were trembling unconsciously.

"It's a lie... isn't it?"

"How could someone with a bounty of 10 billion possibly exist?"

Usopp said shakily.

In fact, he also wondered if Xia Chen was lying to him, but he suddenly remembered that the Pirate King Roger was indeed from the East China Sea.

Maybe Xia Chen really could be his nephew.

At this moment, Xia Chen, who obviously didn't look like Roger at all, in Usopp's eyes inexplicably felt that they really looked alike.

His subordinates...

Isn't it very likely that there are followers of One Piece?

Thinking of this, Usopp felt sick.

He is just here to brag, don't give him such a heavy weight!

Don’t you know that he will have a heart attack when he hears One Piece?

"Si Guoyi, Xia Chen, you are actually the nephew of the Pirate King? Why haven't I heard you talk about this before?"

Luffy looked at Xia Chen with shining eyes, full of excitement.

"Idiot, you know it's fake just by listening to it, okay?" Zoro said with contempt as he looked at Luffy from the side.

After spending some time together, he has completely understood Xia Chen's character.

In Sauron's opinion, Xia Chen is very mysterious and always knows things that no one has ever heard of. He is also very strong, and of course, his ability to deceive people is also very good!

From the current situation, it is obvious that Xia Chen is bragging. Even his sword can show this problem. Only an idiot like Luffy would believe it so easily.

"Hey, hey, hey, Zoro, stop talking nonsense!"

"I admit that my name is not Gol D. Xia Chen, but it is an ironclad fact that I am the nephew of Pirate King Roger, okay?"

Xia Chen looked at Sauron and said dissatisfiedly.

Ace is Roger's son, and Luffy is Ace's younger brother, so Luffy is Roger's nephew, right?

He is Luffy's vice-captain, and can also be said to be his elder brother, which means he is also Ace's brother.

Therefore, from... we can get..., the inference holds!

So, he is Roger's nephew! Nothing wrong with that!

Even if Roger himself was here today, he could not deny that he was his nephew.

"You...you are Roger's nephew?"

Nami next to him looked at Xia Chen with horror, her eyes full of shock.

The random ship she boarded actually had the Pirate King's nephew?

What kind of fantasy plot is this?

When Zoro saw Xia Chen being so confident, he lost his confidence. Could it be that he really wasn't bragging?

Usopp, who was far away, became even more panicked after hearing these words and sat down on the ground.

It seems there is no way to escape, that man is really Roger's nephew.

It’s over. How can he stop such a vicious pirate?

But after thinking for a few breaths, Usopp's eyes gradually became firm.

Even though he knew that the people on the other side were terrible pirates, he was still scared to death.

but……

No matter what, he couldn't let these people destroy the village he cherished!

Unless you step over his dead body first!

Thinking of this, Usopp slowly stood up. Although his legs were still shaking, his eyes were more determined than ever before.

He pulled the slingshot and shouted at Xia Chen and others:

"My slingshot is more powerful than bullets. If you don't want to die here, retreat quickly!"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, the smiles on Xia Chen and the other two's faces slowly disappeared, and then they all looked at Usopp on the cliff.

Luffy pressed the straw hat on his head and said lightly:

"Since you have decided to fight, you must be determined to die!"

Luffy's voice continued to echo in Usopp's ears, repeatedly destroying the psychological defenses he had just built up.

After a while, Usopp finally couldn't hold on any longer, the slingshot in his hand fell to the ground, and he fell to the ground again.

A layer of cold sweat had already seeped out of his forehead, and he said helplessly:

"Is this a real pirate? If you put it this way, it's extraordinary!"

"Pfft~"

"Hahaha……"

Seeing Usopp like this, Xia Chen and the other two couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Luffy said: "This is what I heard from a pirate I respect, not what I said myself!"

"By the way, is your name Usopp?"

"Hmm?" Usopp was stunned and asked stupidly:

"you know me?"

"I guess we know each other! Your father mentions you to me every day!" Luffy said with a faint smile.

"My dad? You know my dad?"

Usopp stood up in surprise and looked at Luffy and asked.

"If your dad is Jesus, then I know him for sure!"

"Yes, yes, my dad is Jesus Bu. How did you know him? Can you tell me about it?"

"Sure, but I have to go eat some meat first..."

. . . .

……

In a tavern in Xiluobu Village.

"So... my dad was on Red-Haired Shanks' ship?"

"Yes! If nothing unexpected happens, he should still be here now. From what I know about Jesus Bu, he is a brave pirate!"

Luffy said as he ate his meat.

When Usopp heard Luffy praising his father, his mouth almost split open with laughter.

"Of course, my dad is the bravest. I admire my dad's courage to jump into the sea the most!"

"Hahaha... Me too!" Luffy laughed.

With the relationship with Jesus Bu, Usopp quickly became friends with Xia Chen and others.

It looked like they were friends who had known each other for many years.
