One Piece has finally entered the finale saga of the story and fans are too excited to watch their favorite pirate crew complete their journey of becoming the best and achieving their dreams individually. Along with Luffy’s dream to become the King of the Pirates, each member of the crew has also reached one step closer to their dream.
Although One Piece has rarely seen any deaths of major characters, despite tackling some of the darkest themes and plot lines, like slavery, discrimination, Political corruption, and much more, every story needs a sacrifice that is bound to either take the story at the next step or finally conclude the tale.
Eiichiro Oda doesn’t believe in killing major characters, however, there is a wild theory surfacing on the internet that predicts a sad future for one of the Straw Hat pirates. This theory claims that Usopp, the sniper of the Straw Hat pirates will sacrifice himself in some way to save his crew and finally achieve his lifelong dream of becoming the bravest warrior of the sea.
Usopp’s Role As a Straw Hat Pirate in One Piece
The Straw Hat Pirates’ sniper, Usopp, joined the group after the Syrup Village Arc. Upon defeating Kuro and the Black Cat Pirates alongside the Straw Hats, he received an invitation to become a crew member. Usopp, despite his typical timidity, aspires to be a fearless sea warrior, akin to his father and strives to fulfill this dream each day.
Usopp, the sniper for the Straw Hats, has accomplished incredible feats during his tenure that will be remembered as a legend in the One Piece universe long after the Straw Hats’ exploits come to an end. While he frequently lacks the skill necessary to support his bravery, Usopp can occasionally be the most courageous member of the crew.
Also, Usopp is the first to join Luffy and Chopper in a stupid feat making them the mischievous group of the crew. He serves as the comic relief character and is frequently made fun of, usually in a lighthearted manner. But the majority of the crew still knows him, and they continue to support, counsel, and trust him despite their disagreement with his decision to flee danger.
Theory Predicts Usopp Will Die To Save Straw Hat Pirates
One popular theory about One Piece holds that Usopp will have to give his life at some point in the narrative to save the Straw Hats. Usopp will achieve his dream of turning into a valiant sea warrior after giving his life.
As Usopp suffers from Impostor Syndrome, He fails to attribute praise to his notable achievements, because he thinks it is just luck. Therefore, he doesn’t believe that he is already a brave warrior and fails to realize his dream.
Additionally, he can only acknowledge that he has realized his dream after he would have sacrificed himself. A lot of people believe that Usopp will sacrifice himself in the last fight, most likely against Blackbeard, which will cause Luffy’s power to surge significantly and defeat the antagonist.
