"That won't do...that's absolutely unacceptable."
"We absolutely cannot ask them for help!"
"No...it simply won't work..."
Usopp's answer and attitude were utterly unexpected.
"Wow, this is really unexpected."
"I never expected that this long-nosed guy would directly reject Nami and Luffy."
"What kind of good friends are these?"
"They're friends despite their age difference."
"He kept saying he wanted to help Luffy."
"But when it came down to it, things fell apart."
Naruto was quite surprised to see Usopp in the scene directly reject Luffy.
I originally thought this guy would make up some lies to politely refuse Luffy and the others' request, but I didn't expect him to be so direct. This must be making Luffy and the others lose face.
"Why? Why can't it be done?"
"Could it be that... Usopp doesn't know the owner of that villa at all?"
Luffy in the scene asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Yes, why not?"
"Does Mr. Usopp not want to help?"
Miss Nami also found it strange; she had initially thought she had met a kind and helpful person.
I was a little embarrassed to be rejected so decisively.
"I know why, it must be Usopp, he doesn't know the owner of this villa at all."
"After all, Usopp is a penniless guy, so the owner of that villa must be a very rich guy."
Chapter 394 People of different statuses cannot work together!
People of different statuses should not work together.
Roronoa Zoro said.
"No, it's not what you imagine."
"I have my reasons for refusing you."
“I will absolutely not allow you to make a move on the owner of that villa.”
"The owner of that villa and I are very good friends."
Usopp continued.
"Isn't this guy contradicting himself?"
"Won't this just make my situation even more awkward?"
"With such low emotional intelligence, he still wants to become a brave man like his father."
"I think that's really outrageous."
"Lady Tsunade said."
"They must have their own difficulties."
"Don't judge others by one person's perspective. I think this long-nosed guy is indeed a kind-hearted person."
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have invited Luffy and his crew to the village and held such a grand banquet to entertain them."
"After all, he himself was a penniless pauper."
"I'm afraid we might not even be able to afford this meal."
Jiraiya said.
"Trying to appear more important than one is actually worth."
Orochimaru blurted out.
"No matter what, Luffy and his crew do know this guy's father."
"Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?"
"It's only right to show some hospitality to the locals, even though he's penniless, considering they're from the same village."
"The hotel owner must also entertain these guests."
"After all, this long-nosed guy isn't so annoying; he often thinks about the village."
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"It's not even certain whether this long-nosed man treated them to this meal."
Xiao Nan said.
What do you mean by that?
Naruto Uzumaki was a little confused.
"Look at that long-nosed guy in the picture. He looks like he's trying to run away. This guy probably dine and dash in the village all the time."
Xiao Nan reminded everyone.
Xiao Nan was right, just as she had guessed.
"I suddenly remembered that I have something very, very important to do."
"I won't stay here to eat and drink with you all."
"There's still so much good food and drink left here, so please feel free to eat and drink to your heart's content. Anyway, I'm quite familiar with the owner here, so I can just put it on my tab and pay the bill."
The long-nosed guy in the picture is talking to Luffy and his crew.
"See? I told you so."
"This guy seems to have gotten into the habit of dining and dashing, never paying, and this time it's the same."
Xiao Nan said.
"Haha...you actually guessed right."
... .. ...
Naruto Uzumaki said with a smile.
"I know the owner of this shop very well, so please enjoy your food and drinks here."
"I really have urgent business to attend to, so I must take my leave."
After saying that, the long-nosed guy grabbed his satchel and quickly ran out of the tavern.
The tavern owner looked up at the long-nosed man, then at the three people in front of him, but said nothing. He then went back to reading his newspaper.
It seems the shop owner knows this long-nosed guy very well, so even if he doesn't pay, he won't argue with him.
"The hotel owner is such a good person; he didn't chase after us to ask for our money back."
Xiao Nan spoke up.
...scholar.
Chapter 395 Money is nothing but dirt?
"We're all from the same village. This guy isn't going to get away anyway, so why chase after him now? Let's give him some face."
Nagato said.
"People who love to brag are just too proud to admit their mistakes and suffer for it."
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"What's wrong with this guy?"
In the scene, Nami looked at Usopp's back with a puzzled expression and asked herself a question.
Luffy, on the other hand, didn't seem to care.
He picked up an apple and started eating it in big bites.
"It's really strange. Even if they didn't want to treat everyone, they wouldn't have just run away in such a panic."
Miss Nami still found it a bit unbelievable.
"He's obviously a braggart. He made some big promises but couldn't keep them. He would have felt embarrassed if he had stayed, so he quickly made up an excuse and ran away in a panic."
Roronoa Zoro said.
"It can't be that bad, can it? Would they really run away in such a panic just to save money on a meal?"
"Besides, didn't this guy just say that himself?"
"He knows the owner of this tavern very well."
"After all, they're from the same village. Even if someone wanted to dine and dash, it wouldn't be possible. They could easily find his home."
Miss Nami still felt something was off; something must have happened.
"Never mind him, there's still plenty of delicious food left to eat."
"Let's eat quickly. Even if we don't let him treat us, we can afford to eat on our own."
Luffy said while munching on an apple.
"Luffy, do you have money on you?"
Roronoa Zoro asked curiously.
Because no matter how he looked at Luffy, he didn't seem like a rich person.
"No, how could I possibly have money?"
Luffy answered without looking up.
"I thought you were rich."
