Ninjin

Ninjin (にんじん, lit. Carrot) was a member of Usopp Pirates before Usopp joined the Straw Hat Pirates. He uses a frying pan as a weapon and wants to open a bar when he grows up.

Appearance
Ninjin is a freckled boy with short spiky purple hair wearing a red hat with the Usopp Pirates jolly roger on it. He wears a black sweater, a sash, lightly brown pants, and dark colored shoes.

After two years, he has grown taller.

Personality
He is very loyal to Usopp and is very brave, standing up to Jango in Kaya's defense.

Kuro Arc
The Usopp Pirates were formed 5 years from the start of the story. Ninjin, Tamanegi, and Piiman have joined Usopp in telling lies during that time. He first appeared in Syrup Village when the Straw Hat Pirates arrive. The Usopp Pirates later assist Kaya in her escape when Captain Kuro planned to kill her. They did this mainly by running and hiding from Jango, whom Kuro sent to make Kaya leave everything to him in her will. After Kuro's defeat, the Usopp Pirates had a tearful disbandment when Usopp decided to be a real pirate. The children decided to continue Usopp's lies of "Pirates are coming".

Jango's Dance Paradise
After Usopp joined Luffy, Ninjin, Tamenegi, and Piiman found Jango in their village, so they chased him and forced him to run away.

Post Enies Lobby Arc
Ninjin, Tamanegi, and Piman were seen again after Enies Lobby was raided, reacting to Usopp's new bounty. Even though it said "Sogeking" and he was wearing a mask, they could recognize him because of his nose.

News of the Straw Hats' Return
Ninjin is seen again along with his two friends, hearing about the Straw Hats return.

Translation and Dub Issues
In the 4Kids version, this was changed to say that he wanted to open a vegetable restaurant, while in the English version of One Piece: Unlimited Adventure it was stated he wanted to open a nightclub.
