One Piece Chapter 26, page 17: CAPTAIN KURO'S PLAN

The villagers gather around Usopp, angry and dismissive. One yells, "HEY USOPP, SHUT YOUR MOUTH! WE'LL TEACH YOU A LESSON TODAY!" Usopp pleads desperately, "NO... IT'S THE TRUTH THIS TIME!" but they reply, "YOU SAY THE SAME THING EVERYTIME! YOU'RE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF OUR TRUST!" Usopp admits, "I KNOW I JOKED AROUND BEFORE! BUT THIS TIME IT'S THE TRUTH! BELIEVE ME!" A villager retorts, "IF YOU WERE AN HONEST MAN LIKE CLAHADOR, THEN MAYBE I'D BELIEVE YOU!" Usopp is left devastated as Kuro's words echo in his mind: "NO MATTER WHAT HE SAYS, NO ONE WILL EVER BELIEVE HIM!" Usopp realizes with horror that Kuro was right.
