## One Piece Chapter 27, pages 14-16: THE PLOT - Chapter: 27 - Pages: 14-16 - Characters: Usopp, guards, Kaya, villagers ### Summary Page 14: Usopp quickly draws his slingshot, pulling the band back and saying, "PULL OUT..." The angry guard charges at him, yelling, "DIE!" Usopp holds his aim, saying, "STRETCH..." In a large central panel, Usopp releases the slingshot, firing a projectile that smacks directly into the charging guard's face with a loud impact. Usopp yells, "YOU IDIOTS!!" while the guard cries out, "ARGH!!" The guard falls backward. In the bottom panel, the first guard is getting back up, cursing, "DAMN IT!" Usopp immediately aims his slingshot at him, pulling the band back again and saying, "STRETCH..." Page 15: Kaya leans out of her window, yelling desperately, "USOPP-SAN! STOP IT!!" Usopp releases his slingshot with a "SHOOT...", firing another projectile that hits the second guard squarely in the face. The guard yells "ARGH!!" as he is knocked backward. A wide shot shows Usopp standing in the courtyard, slingshot in hand, with both guards lying unconscious on the ground, smoke rising from their heads. Kaya looks down in disbelief, thinking, "What happened? Both guards are..." Usopp looks back up at the window, his face full of urgent panic. He pleads, "KAYA! PLEASE BELIEVE ME! HURRY AND LEAVE THIS VILLAGE! BEFORE THE BUTLER COMES BACK!" Kaya, looking deeply distressed and clutching her hands to her chest, thinks to herself, "This isn't the Usopp-san that I used to know..." Page 16: The villagers chase Usopp, shouting insults. One yells, "How dare you scare us like that?" Another shouts, "Butler? Huh! What a story!" A third says, "Are you still asleep!?" Usopp flees, sweating and panicked, thinking, "Why can't they believe me!?" He looks back over his shoulder while running through the village. Later, outside Kaya's mansion by her window, Kaya stands in shock, saying, "Is it true that... you said that Clahador is a pirate?" Usopp, desperate, grabs her arm and says, "Yes! It's true! You gotta run for your life! He will kill you!" Kaya, furious and hurt, slaps him hard across the face.
