One Piece Chapter 40, page 13-14: USOPP PIRATE GROUP

Usopp meets Tamanegi, Ninjin, and Piiman in a grassy field. The kids ask, "CAPTAIN USOPP, WHAT IS IT THAT YOU WANTED TO TALK TO US ABOUT?" Usopp replies, "OH, YES, YOU'RE ALL HERE". He stands proudly with his hands on his hips and says, "YOU GUYS FOUGHT BRAVELY AGAINST THOSE KURO NEKO PIRATES! IT WAS A BATTLE WORTHY OF THE USOPP PIRATE GROUP. I'M VERY PROUD AS THE CAPTAIN!" He continues, "5 YEARS AGO... WE FORMED THE USOPP PIRATE GROUP WHEN YOU GUYS WERE FOUR. THIS WAS THE GREATEST AND MOST MAGNIFICENT BATTLE WE HAVE EXPERIENCED IN THOSE 5 YEARS. AND NOW, IT'S SUDDEN BUT I HAVE DECIDED TO GO TO THE SEA BY MYSELF". He laughs loudly, "わっはっはっはっは" (wahahahaha), and declares, "I'M GOING TO BECOME A REAL PIRATE".

The three kids stare at Usopp in complete shock, speechless. Piiman quietly asks, "CAPTAIN?" and they cry out, "WHAT...? THAT'S SO SUDDEN! BESIDES, DON'T YOU LOVE THIS VILLAGE, CAPTAIN? CAPTAIN, THAT'S A LIE! THAT'S ALSO A LIE, RIGHT!? WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO USOPP PIRATE GROUP!?!". Usopp smiles and says, "AFTER SEEING THEM, I DECIDED. I'M GOING TO LEAVE THIS VILLAGE". He then points forward dramatically and shouts, "THERE IS ONLY ONE REASON! BECAUSE THE PIRATE FLAG IS CALLING ME!
