"We found the rising ocean current."
"I don't know if you can understand, but it means that the seawater will rise directly into the sky."
"Our pirate ship just happened to catch that wind, which propelled it directly onto a floating island in the sky."
Usopp continued to use his imagination as he spoke to the young lady.
"Hahaha... Your pirate ship actually has a pair of wings?"
"And are there even seawater rushing directly into the air like this?"
"Would such a superior ocean current exist...?"
Chapter 652 Gold is simply dirt, utterly worthless!
"Besides, are there really islands floating in mid-air?"
"This...this can't be possible, right?!"
"How could an island possibly float in mid-air?"
"Only white clouds can float in mid-air."
The young lady said to Usopp.
"I'm telling the truth, you can't not believe me."
“There really are islands that float in mid-air, and at an altitude of 10,000 meters.”
"The people there also have a pair of wings. They don't walk on two legs at all; they fly like birds with their wings."
"On their island, there are as many white clouds as there are soil on our island."
"Everywhere is a sea of clouds, but the soil is very precious to them."
“They would often fight over soil; everyone was plundering this resource that could support the growth of all things.”
"Don't underestimate soil on our planet; it's perhaps the most common element."
"But it is precisely because of the soil that all things can be nourished and all living things can survive."
"The floating islands in the sky are like this too; they need soil to survive."
"Because only in the soil can plants grow and crops and food be produced."
"They also need to eat; they can't survive without food."
"Therefore, the struggle for this most important resource became the source of their wars."
Usopp continued.
"Really? Do such sky islands really exist?"
"The people living on those floating islands are so pitiful; even the soil has become the most precious thing for them."
"Unlike us, we can't just find lots and lots of soil anywhere."
"As long as you work hard, you can grow crops and you will never go hungry or worry about food."
"Hearing you say that, I feel that the people living on this land are really so lucky."
"The people on the floating islands are really pitiful."
"That's what the young lady said."
"Yes, we don't cherish what we have when we have it, but we care a lot when we lose it."
"We have a lot of loess soil, which can grow a lot of grain, so we don't have to worry about our food at all."
"But the people living on the floating islands are so pitiful, worrying about food and drink all day long."
"Although there is a lot of gold and a lot of jewelry on their island, it is not enough to fill their stomachs."
"Even though they possessed that wealth, they were very unhappy; they were truly unfortunate."
"For them, soil is more precious than gold; in their eyes, soil is gold."
"Real gold is nothing but dirt, utterly worthless."
Usopp continued making up stories.
"They are really pitiful."
"Why don't they follow your pirate ship to our land?"
"Surviving on our land should be very easy."
The young lady narrowed her eyes slightly, and then asked.
“After all, that’s their homeland; their ancestors lived on that island.”
"Those who were born on that island have a deep affection for it."
"How could I possibly leave my hometown so easily..."
Chapter 653 This village! There will never be a peaceful day again!
"Just like us, they also have a deep affection for their village."
"If I were to leave the village where I live now, I would be very reluctant to do so."
"So they simply can't bear to leave that island, and their bodies have evolved to an extremely high level."
"Originally, they did not have wings. Only after surviving on the sky island for a long time did they slowly purify themselves and develop wings."
"So even after they came to our land, they couldn't adapt to life on our land all at once."
"Besides, they are unwilling to give up their hometown, after all, it was that land and water that nurtured them."
"Although it was very difficult, it's alright."
“They now have a very complete way of life of their own and are fully adapted to living on such an island.”
"Moreover... there is plenty of soil on the island that nourishes them."
“That soil is no longer like the soil on our land.”
"The soil seems to have been purified, and life grows wildly on their (aich) island."
"So as long as they have a small amount of soil, the plants that grow there are enough for them to use."
"I'm afraid you wouldn't believe it if I told you, the plants that grow in the soil of that place."
"Even a small blade of grass is bigger than a towering tree here, and it will bear many, many fruits."
"They will have plenty of food, so they don't have to worry about going hungry."
Seeing the worried look on the young lady's face, Usopp immediately changed his mind.
The creatures on the sky island will have abundant resources and food, so there's no need to worry about them going hungry or cold.
Upon hearing his words, a smile gradually appeared on the young lady's face.
I originally came to comfort the young lady and try to cheer her up.
The goal is not to let the story I made up cause the young lady even more worry.
Therefore... Usopp must give this story a very happy ending.
We must not leave the audience with any regrets.
Usopp recalled his time with the young lady, and a happy smile slowly spread across his face.
But the thought of being at the beach...
The conversation he overheard between Crocodile, the head butler, and his hypnotist Zango...
Usopp's mood turned heavy again.
"They're going to attack the village tomorrow morning."
"Once these pirates' plans are thwarted, this village will never have a peaceful day again."
"The young lady will also be killed by them."
Walking along the country road, Yasopp kept recalling the recent events.
As soon as it gets light, the village will be plundered by these pirates.
Usopp thought about this and then looked at his own village, feeling extremely sad.
Tears welled up and fell uncontrollably.
"It seems that Usopp really loves his village."
Naruto Uzumaki said this after seeing Usopp's sad and upset expression on the screen.
Chapter 654 Isn't what you said just stating the obvious? Disregarding life and death!
"Isn't what you're saying obvious?"
"No one doesn't love their hometown. Aren't we all working hard to protect our hometown?"
"To protect their own village?"
"That's where he was born and where he grew up."
"Uchiha Sasuke said."
"It seems this long-nosed guy is a pretty responsible man. If it were someone else, what difference would it make if it were their hometown that gave them birth and raised them?"
"Our priority is to escape."
"Upon hearing the news, the long-nosed man immediately went home to prepare some dry food and necessities for his escape."
"The first thing that came to mind was the villagers in the village. Xiao Fang tried to inform them, and also... the young lady."
"Although the young lady misunderstood me."
"But Usopp still wanted to tell the young lady to run for his life, without putting his own safety first at all."
"This is enough to show that the long-nosed guy's heart is filled with nothing but his own villagers and young lady, and he doesn't put his own life and death first."
"He had long since disregarded his own life and death, solely based on that."
"He is a great hero worthy of praise."
"His problem lies in his foul mouth; he's always joking around with his villagers."
