"Join my crew!" Luffy proposed, showing the man in front of him his usual sunny grin.

Usopp blinked, feeling his jaw drop. "Huh?"

"Do you have a dream?"

"Uh '" The liar was completely stumped by the random question, not to mention the pirate's overall attitude change. "Why do you want to know?"

Luffy placed a hand on his hat. "Everyone sets out to sea with their own dreams and goals. I aim to become the Pirate King!" he declared adamantly, his whole being radiating with steely determination and confidence.

Usopp was stunned. He was a liar, maybe not a very good one, but still, he could always tell when other people lied. This kid was not lying. The next Pirate King was standing before him, offering a place in his crew. "I-I want to become a brave warrior of the sea!" Usopp announced, all previous hesitation swept aside.
