If it had been anyone else sitting there with Usopp, they probably would have found this answer amusing - or at least allowed a raised eyebrow. Unfortunately, Sai lacked any sense of humor. He just nodded again, the answer making perfect sense to him. "That would work. Good thinking." It wouldn't be as strong as it could be, but it would work better than the corners of the bedsheets, which had been his first thought. They might also become too stretched out quickly and have to be replaced, but he didn't think that would be too much of an issue.

"I only have the trowels," he answered when Usopp asked about his equipment. He didn't point out that he could work better with those than most others could. "I may need to equip myself better as well, it's true."
