History

Past

The Usopp Pirates were formed five years before the start of the story. They joined Usopp in telling lies to the people of their hometown, Syrup Village, during that time.

Syrup Village Arc

They 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. The pirates had a tearful disbandment when Usopp decided to leave and become a real pirate. The trio announced their goals to their life, and Usopp suggested that they not let the fire of their ambitions burn out. The children decided to continue Usopp's lies of "Pirates are coming" to their town.

Further Appearances

They also appear as cameo in Jango's mini-series, Jango's Dance Paradise. They found Jango in their village, so they chased him and forced him to run away.

The former members of Usopp Pirates (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.

Two Years Later

The trio reads up on their former captain.

Two years have passed and they were recently seen reading news of the Straw Hat Pirates' return in the newspaper that shows the current look of their former leader, Usopp. Upon reading their captain's new bounty of 200,000,000, they were crying with pride and joy.

Trivia

• The 4Kids version of the three younger crew members' names is a reference to the vegetable theme apparent in the crew members' original names and appearances (carrot, onion, and pepper).
• Though they have a proper flag, the three younger crew members are a group that never set sail and only played pirates, so they are not enemies of the World Government.
