What if there's a side-effect to Usopp's dream of becoming a 'brave warrior of the sea', and he ends up becoming the world's greatest sharpshooter? After all, what he did to Spandam (sniping him from practically miles away) was incredible. I bet he's even surpassed his dad.
I had a thought…
-
-
I highly doubt he has supassed his father. Yasopp has been set to be the best sniper as of yet. Usopp hasn't even done better than Van Auger yet. I'm hopeful that he will get there though.

I don' think Yassop is better than Van Auger, but yeah, someday Usopp will get to their level.

Yowsh! I did this step too. Not bad, not bad…
Ok, I am an Usopp fan too, but it just seems weird to me, for him to become something that big... I wouldn't have a problem if it happened but yeah -
-
-
I always figured that all the characters would eventually be named as the best.
Luffy-pirate king
Zoro-Greatest Swordsmen
Nami-greatest map maker
Ussop-Greatest range weapon user
Sanji-Greatest Cook
Chopper-Greatest Doctor
Robin-Greatest Archologist
Franky-Greatest shipbuilderSince Luffy will be going after the Pirate king title, it makes sense that the rest of the crew would be great as well.
-

… although I doubt him becoming the best sharpshooter in the world...Why not? He's gonna be on the crew of the Pirate King, the greatest pirate in the world. Who's gonna have the greatest swordsman in the world for his first mate. And if Robin is the one who uncovers the true history, she'll be the greatest archeologist in the world. That's three greatests right there. And with the resources of All Blue, Sanji could easily become the greatest chef in the world. That makes it four greatests. If Franky joins, and succeeds in making an invincible ship, he'll be the greatest shipwright. Nami's world map will make her the greatest navigator of all time. Chopper wants to "cure all diseases," and even if he never manages, TRYING could easily pull him to top doctor in the world.
Greatest sharpshooter isn't so far fetched when you think of it like that.
Oh, and of COURSE yasopp is better than Van Auger. He's the sharpshooter of the RED HAIR for god's sake. WHITBEARD respects him (not much, but he does.)

Damn right. Usopp/Sogeking=Greatest sharpshooter EVAR!
-
Well, since Ussop seeks to be a brave warrior and fights with sniping (among other things), I think it makes sense. Yeah, Ussop's probably on his way to becoming a great sniper. Makes me wonder what sniper-themed enemies we might see along the way.
-
I always figured Usopp would become the worlds greatest Sniper. And the name SogeKing could be foreshadowing that, as it is a pun on sniper king. IN the future people will call him the SogeKing. Just as they'llcall Luffy th Pirate King.
-
how is it a side affect…the only thing he does is snipe so of course it would be the reason he would be a "brave warrior of the sea". the idea that he has already surpassed his dad is also pretty ridiculous its like saying that zoro has already surpassed mihawk. ah well i guess its just some fanboy thoughts...oops did i just say something bad about an ussop fan.
-
Oh can it latchkeykid, we can take a beating. It's the Usopp FANATICS who get all pissy.
I just had an interesting thought…it probably won't happen but...
They've all piled into the escape ship and are fleeing. They think their safe, and then all of a sudden..
Zoro: AH! My shoulder!
Nami: Zoro's been shot!
Franky: What happened? Where'd it come from?
Usopp: I recognize this style! It's....
Usopp: A sniper!
Shot of the mohwak'd VA and Usopp, both taking careful aim from their ships....Probably ny, but it would be fun. At victory Usopp could scream something that show's he's accepted his role, like "I AM THE SNIPER.....OF THE NEXT PIRATE KING!"

That's what I tried to convey in the first post, but I couldn't find the right words.
-

One possibility out of many, but still…possible:happy:
Unless there exists a medal for the bravest pirate of the year Usopp gotta go along with trying to become the best sniper...becoming braver just is a necessary evil.
And I totally agree with Octogon on Oda foreshadowing. -
i always thought that usopp may become the world's greatest sharpshooter way before than the others fullfill their dreams,for example he may be the best sniper in chapter 650 but he will be acknowledged as a brave warrior of the sea in the end of the series
and if you think that usopp gets opponents 2 or 3 times weaker than zoro's and luffy's but he is 50 times weaker (if we accept that usopp's phisical power is like a marine soldier then his douriki is 10 and zoro's is surely 2300 since he beat kaku) in the end he may be recognized as the world's bravest pirate cuz although he has a serious disadvantage in power with every strong enemy they met the power of his heart and his mind overpowers his oponents
(like usopp challenging lucci,)
-
Honestly, I think Lucci might have been a smidge too confident there. Not that I think Usopp could have long term beaten Lucci, but I think Lucci might have ended up in the drink at least once if he tried to geppo over there, delaying him.
Actually, now that I think of it I'm kind of sad the "leaping" aspect of the leopard got so little play in Lucci's fighting style.
-
After the series ends, I can picture Usopp getting a huge crew and becoming much like Krieg was: a guy with a lotta weapons and a lotta men.
Here's how I picture Usopp's battle suit:
1. Seastone armor to cancel any DF powers
2. 2 black gloves fitted with impact dials to absorb any impact
3. Usopp's 4 ton hammer with a reject dial
4. Kabuto fitted with a heat and breeze dial.And countless other gadgets.
-
I dunno, if Usopp was gonna go in for armor he'd have made some by now. I think he's more into upping his weapons. As a sharpshooter, armor would cut down on his speed too much.
-
I always pictured Ussop becoming like the Batman of One Piece. A guy who doesn't need super strength to beat, just kick ass strategies and gadgets. I like to call him Batsopp.

I would LOVE to see usopp in the batsuit.

Wouldn't Oda get sued? But anyways, Hopefully in the future, Ussop is the go-to guy when it comes to battle strategies. Picture ussop with seastone bullets for Kabuto. I got these crazy ideas when I saw the Luffy v. Ussop battle. Ussop just seemed like Batman during that fight, but still I want him to keep his fun-loving attitude tho. ALL HAIL BATSOPP
-
See, I would like it if Ussopp were to get Funkfried and just use him the same way Spandam did.
My best case scenario for Ussopp I would like is if he were to acquire all these odds and ends throughout the series, like the dials and df weapons, until he really does just have a utility belt of strange odds and ends that he has cobbled together into an arsenal of weapons. Like Kreig, but both much better and much stranger. Each major arc he could add another trick or two to his arsenal.
His main role would still be sniping, but this way he would have numerous options so he can try to weasel his way out of close combat should it come to that, rather than simply running away or getting his head handed to him.
-
Actrually odlam, that's pretty cool. Wonder if that's oda's plan.

That is an interesting idea. Funkfried is both a kind of powerful weapon, yet at the same time "pwnable" enough to to not encourage Ussop to rely on it. But it's still unlikely, I mean how would Ussop get to it now?
What a more interesting idea however, is Ussop acquiring weapons throughout the series. I wonder what could be next?
-
roffle. Usopp's dream hasn't changed yet, so it's too soon to say if he's even improving/will improve sniping-wise.
-
i personally love usopps wide range of weapons we've seen thus far, seems he always has a new one and theres always some hilarious byproduct of the weapons use. like the 5 ton hammer being made out of frying pans. oda has seemed to stray from that recently, esp with making the climatact so powerful and the kabuto so accurate. i'd like to see more of usopps accidental side to making his weapons, he deams it just a toy for entertainment but it really can kick some ass^^ i love how usopp has such confidence when using his weapons but when they fail to work he freaks.
usopps progression is a definate double edged sword for me, i want him to stay like he has been in the past but i also want him to become more fearsome and skilled and have it not seem accidental. -

I know a girl who could sing broadway DOWN if she wanted to, but she's so nervous about trying she's decidted to be psychology major. Usopp will probably end up like that: Capable, but unsure.
PS: We're hoping the psych classes knock some sense into her.
-
Anyone have the thought that Usopp will be the one to beat Smoker?
The Milky dial won't work cause there's no cloud vapor to absorb that low in the atmosphere. But Smoker is smoke/cloud vapor, so Usopp could use the dial to absorb part of him and produce clouds that SMoker couldn't merge with. If Smoker was surrounded by those, he'd be an easy target.
-
Damn right. Usopp/Sogeking=Greatest sharpshooter EVAR!
Usopp could become the best lier in the world or the greatest singer (See anime with Soge King Theme )
-
Why is everyone assuming Yasopp or Van Augh are the greatest sharpshooters when we haven't seen yet the sniper in WhiteBeard's crew?
-

Or any sharpshooter yet. In fact, that's just it, we haven't seen any other sharpshooters besides those two.

You know, this idea isn't exactly stupid. In fact, it's pretty good, especially if you chucked some seastone in the dials. But even so, Luffy and Smoker have this kind of "I'll hunt you to the ends of the earth" deal going on, so Luffy should do it.
