How Will USOPP Defeat VAN AUGUR?? USOPP'S ULTIMATE UPGRADE!!!

[@StrewthStoatPirate]

I am still of the opinion that the Van Auger battle will end with every "miss" from Usopp in the battle having been the deliberate placement of a specific pop green, creating an inescapable trap that goes off all at once, Rube Goldberg-style.

[@dittosame-o67]

Hey, you’re strengthening the thesis paper.

[@JonathanFlexx]

I think Usopp will just predict his teleportations with super observation haki which we have strongly foreshadowed for him. I'm pretty sure devil fruits will be the downfall of Blackbeard and his crew because he's after what in his eyes is tangible power, then we have Kaido clearly stating that no devil fruit power will rule the seas - only haki. Roger didn't have a devil fruit, neither does Shanks, Zoro, Sanji, Rayleigh, Ben Beckman, Jinbei and many other of the obviously strongest characters in the verse.

I like this theory, but would love to add onto it a bit since we're missing one of his newest abilities; Observation Haki. I have my own theory where Usopp kinda develops his own brand Observation Haki where it somewhat acts like Katakuri's. Where he can see the future. However, since Usopp is so negative and a pessimist, he's refined it so that he can see BAD futures. Aka, ones where he dies. Not just the normal future, but all negative possibilities of future events. That would let him keep toe-to-toe against a man who can warp anywhere.

[@dittosame-o67]

Your interpretation is stated in a more tangible way that builds upon an older theory I’ve seen. You worded it better. Katakuri? Hmm…

Reading the theory, I first thought this is too far stretched to be a thing. But you got me laughing out loud at the idea of our scaredy-cat Usopp panicking around and ending up dodging the warp attacks and no one watching can believe this is actually working. And then I remembered…. It’s Oda we are talking about and this might be hilarious enough to actually happen 😂😂😂😂

[@MousaThe14]

“Character known for building things builds something off-screen” isn’t a plot hole, that’s not what plot holes are. It’s like saying we didn’t see him develop his shurikens or Tabasco stars so that must be a plot hole. It’s just an incidental thing that is probably happening that the story doesn’t need to elaborate on. Like we know Nami is charting islands but Oda doesn’t feel like drawing it because that’s not important to the story that’s being told. There is plenty of opportunity for the kabuto to be in RnD between Skypia and it’s unveiling even if it’s not just a single dedicated moment of invention.

[@AnchorCrab]

I'm glad somebody called this out. Not everything needs a direct on-screen explanation! It's not like we see Usopp building Nami's first clima-tact before she uses it either.

[@dittosame-o67]

Even though, I really do wonder if he practices his marksmanship off screen. I feel like to some extent, he doesn’t feel the need to.

[@aaronwishard7093]

You are aware that the Tabasco stars were shown being made before the Baratie right? So the "plot hole" that is being discussed is why wasn't this particular weapon shown being developed? As the other comment has already said the exact same problem is used with the Climi-tact, but it's still a question that should be discussed.

[@MousaThe14]

@@aaronwishard7093 You are missing the forest for the trees. My example was not meant to be literal but to make the point that it does not matter because that’s not what a plot hole is, it’s incidental and can be inferred based on past actions.

@@MousaThe14 I'm not missing the forest for the trees. I pointed out that your examples WERE shown on screen being developed, at least in part, before being unveiled fully.

I think that Usopp developing Kabuto offscreen is totally normal. He's one of three, maybe four Straw Hats that developed new skills after the Aokiji confrontation. Luffy had his gears, Sanji had Diable Jambe (probably), Usopp had his Kabuto, and while I don't remember Nami's scene, Enies Lobby is also the forst time she uses her upgraded Clima Tact, which she notably didn't have in Skypeia

[@thusspokethestruggler]

This channel genuinely never ceases to amaze me. Not only are these theories consistently about less mainstream theories (Void Century, Shanks, Joyboy, The End of One Piece, etc), but are some of the most thought provoking ones no less. I think people have been hyping up Usopp's potential upgrade in Elbaf to the point little to no one even considered this avenue. Not only does it fit, but hell it feels nearly prophetic! Of course, time will tell if it was or wasn't. But even so, this was an awesome perspective! Keep serving up these bangers, brother!

[@CaptainBuggyTheClown]

I think the blackbeard vs strawhat pirates will go down with them being new to their devil fruits thus too reliant upon abilities they're not experienced with. We've been told by blackbeard Logia types get too comfortable because they can't be touched. We see Van augur mention recently in manga he's still getting used to his teleport ability due to its limited range. These are both foreshadowing that their df abilities will be their downfall. Relying on them too heavily, and not having experience thus being what causes them to lose. In Van Augur's case it could be that Usopp's observation haki becomes so absurdly powerful that he can predict where Van Augur will teleport to, and recognize his limitations, so everytime he teleports boom another blast to the face which would make for an insane fight scene for Usopp to look like a total badass.

[@dittosame-o67]

And people will call it an A$$ pull. Maybe I should stop caring about what everyone else thinks 🙁 Especially when you just cooked.

[@BlitzedKip420]

Seems far more likely that it's actually implying the opposite seeing as thus far VAs use of the fruit has been extremely fkn powerful, nothing but clutch moves while STILL being a newish fruit for him, and by the time they actually square up against the BBP he will have mastered it if not straight up awkened his fruit. Bizzare to me that you somehow think it implies it will be his downfall when thus far we have seen like, little to no actual examples of their fruits failing them. This one scenario with VA on Egghead actually WORKED in their favor since where they landed allowed them to not only steal a Goroseis image, but allowed Caribou the opprunity to sp[ill the beans on all the ancient weapon. AKA blatant plot armor bullshit. It's just more examples of BB along Luffy being the single 2 most lucky mfs in verse. tl;dr -- No. Absolutely not. Ass backwards if anything.

[@dittosame-o67]

@@BlitzedKip420 I doubt we’ll get a DF awakening from Van Augur. I don’t think that much time will pass for that to occur. Yet, I do think one of the only ways we could get a good idea of who Usopp is up against, is by having Van Augur and Yasopp duel. Sure, Van Augur has showcased his sniping prowess a handful of times, but I definitely think we could get a bigger idea of how he works in action up against someone who stands a chance up against him. Rather than the opponent whom a lot of people seem to doubt.

[@Shan_Troker]

Ever since Van Auger's DF was revealed, I've been wondering just how Usopp will deal with him, and I really thunk you're onto something here.

[@doubledamn2599]

Minor point, maybe in favour of foreshadowing this - one of Usopp's named attacks is 'Atlas Comet'.

[@FJLink]

Having Usopp being chased again would make a lot of sense considering the trajectory so far. Plus it's easy to forget that these fights need a context, so Usopp could be trying to protect something, to carry something somewhere. This was a really fun video. Great job :)

If it was a hammer that could change sizes not only could he handle it and then just make it big on impact, he could make it really small and shoot it with his slingshot and then make it expand on the way there. I think a shrinking/growing hammer would be an ideal upgrade for Usopp. Plus he has used hammers in the past it's not like he only uses the slingshot.

My thought for a zoan for Usopp was the "mythical" turtle who beat the rabbit in a race. A cowardly mount who is slow and defensive in most situations, but could reach enormous speeds in dire situations. Great for Usopp.

I love the idea of the Atlas beetle devil fruit Kabuto, however I do think Usopp will fight Van Augur more straight up because that's the appropriate end to one of the narrative arcs for Usopp: overcoming his cowardice.

Nice theory, man. I always thought of an Insect theme when it comes to Usopp's possible power up since that one scene in Jaya Island. P.S. Whenever I heard the word KABUTO, I always associated with the Fossil Pokemon and KABUTERIMON from Digimon, which, by the way, can evolve in ATLAS-Kabuterimon.

[@priyanshagrawal164]

Awesome theory brother❤. I'd also like to add that in thriller bark when Usopp is running away from Perona and figures out her secret (the hidden unconscious body) in the room, he uses a "special attack- Atlas comet" to demolish the room. And we also get a glimpse of the Atlas beetle in the attack. So it could be a goated foreshadowing.

[@dandaman0196]

Sounds like a solid theory, he could also adapt mobility tech from vegapunk but your theory is better. I've always been surprised he hasn't used impact dials in his upgrades, designed to tank damage and triple the damage taken to an attack. Seems perfect for usop given he can just fire them as a shot to mitigate the blowback on himself. Or use them as mines, seems like a solid method to lock down a person's mobility. If he can predict Van augers position (observation haki?) then he could use the dials as mines for wherever he predicts auger to show up at. Again a way to use them without him tanking the blowback of the dials on himself. It also works in with the hit and run tactics auger can't fly but with the devil fruit usopp can, so usopp avoids attacks knowing auger is limited to the ground and sets up mines, possibly in the window that auger is teleporting in so he can't see it

[@luisdiazgimenez3043]

Great theory but I think you are missing something important. Usopp has the power to turn the lies into truths, and has been doing so throught the series. That is why I believe that towards the end of One Piece we will see Usopp with an actual giant hammer and using conqueror's haki. This will happen most likely during Elbaf.

[@TheCrapCafe_]

I just don't think Usopp will switch to close range combat after all his training and experience in sniping. But I do agree that he's going to unlock conquerors haki by the end of the story!

It’s really cool what oda did here. We constantly saw pre time-skip that ussop cannot fight like the monster trio can. And sanji told him specifically, “do what only you can do” in video games a sniper or longer range character in general has the advantage of insane DPS output potential. At the cost of being very frail and prone to blowing up if any brawler ever closes the distance. Augre is what happens if that weakness is covered up, not completely gone, but insanely harder to exploit. It really makes this matchup one of the most anticipated mirror matchups for me because of that.

[@nedrah3490]

It's my personal theory that he'll get the Mushi Mushi no mi: Model Bombadier Beetle. It's pretty clear a beetle zoan makes the most sense, but to give a weapon already named Kabuto a beetle zoan that basically just mimics it's design doesn't really aid Usopps character design and is a little too on the nose. But to give Kabuto a beetle zoan that has literally evolved to produce it's own projectile in the form of "shooting" a caustic liquid from it's body makes the most sense. Either that or Kuma dies and his fruit spawns on the ship in Nami's fruit garden, or he survives and Vegapunk gives him the pawpaw fruit, but due to how things are currently evolving on Egghead, it makes it unlikely Vegapunk will be in a position to retrieve a fruit to give Usopp before they leave. But if that does happen, Vegapunk has likely already cloned the pawpaw fruit due to his relationship and experimentation on Kuma. You have to realize that Kabuto is not an inanimate object, it is a living thing, therefore it is not limited by the "zoan only" niche for things like swords or cannons. This would allow the Kabuto to fire any projectile at the same speed Kuma can push people, which could potentially aid him fighting Van Auger as he would not be able to warp fast enough to dodge the projectiles, it also gives the super grown up kabuto the ability to fire people or any large object again at that same speed. Since the living part of the Kabuto that manifests becomes the pouch in the grown up forms, it makes the most sense that the paw pad that activates the ability would exist on or in the mouth of the plant which is where Usopp loads all of his projectiles. It also gives him the ability to fire highly compressed air similar to the Urusus Shock ability Kuma uses.

So, I don’t know what Usopp’s final upgrade will be, but I think you’re on to something on the mounted combat thing I never considered before but it’s so self-evident when you lay it out like this. But I don’t know if it’s gonna be the Kabuto getting a fruit. I think it might be a little more meaningful if it’s Chopper and Usopp riding into combat together. So whatever upgrade that might happen next, I do like the idea that it is beetle-themed, I’m just not sure what it would be. But your ideas have a lot of good solid grounding in them.

Btw as a person who breeds beetles and kept an atlas here are some things to note down about it 1. PRETTY GOOD FLIGHT, like sometimes It just hovers perfectly as if it's levitating 2. strong ability to climb, it has sharp claws to attach to trees and skins 3. It's pretty gentle so I don't think it would be on the offense side more on the defense side 4. Very strong shell like if you drop it off a 2 story building It will survive So in conclusion anyone with the atlas beetle devil fruit would have good defense and mobility. also like many other beetles atlas beetles may have decent eyesight but they have strong antennaes that can detect chemicals in the air like chemicals from foods, other beetles, and etc. Maybe the atlas beetle can have some sort obv haki

I wouldn't go as far as calling Usopp the greatest sniper of the East Blue by the time the crew entered the Grand Line, the 'duel' he won against Big Daddy was just about whether or not he could hit a distant target. Succeeding doesn't make him the better sniper. Plus Usopp had additional time to finish the Kabuto while the Strawhats hat moved to a hotel in Water 7 after his duel with Luffy.

[@Jonboy_1000]

My problem with Ussop beating Van Auger is that Van Auger is a Yonko commander and also likely a really experienced Haki user and Ussop attacks were only able to take out much lower-tier characters. So I can't see him becoming sniper king especially how he would have to somehow reach Yassop who has one of the most powerful observation haki in the series(and likely even achieved future sight and at least a decent amount of armament haki) by the end of the saga. I like Ussop and would like that to happen in the story but I can't see him surpassing Van Auger without any haki and also due to being one of the weakest straw hat members.

its a cool theory :3 i dont know about the fruits you thought about but giving usopp weapon a devilfruit makes really sense :D but one thing you forgot in this video is that it is not clear if fujituras sword is the source of his gravity power so it is actually possible his sword can be used even though it is not an animal like an elefant or something you could persuade into doing something for you :3 thanks for the video =)

[@Vanced-ii3bj]

14:25 A thought occurred that Usopp could take an unconventional approach by allowing his weapon to consume the devil fruit, without delving into the conventional methods of granting inanimate objects devil fruit powers. This could offer an additional rationale for why the theory of Nami's Climate Tact acquiring the Snow-Snow Fruit ability wasn't happening, aside from the Straw Hats' lack of knowledge or interest in the matter.

[@Serovious]

Woah wait, first of all great video and theory. Secondly, i agree with two of the skills you’ve listed for Usopp but one of them sticks out like a sore thumb, speed and agility. These are by FAR his weakest points. Usopp is arguably one of the two slowest and least agile strawhat pirates in competition with Nami. His best skills are these. -Accuracy and long range weaponry -Resourcefulness and craftiness -Trickery/lying and charisma In my opinion these are his greatest skills so far. He might awaken some form of special haki related powers in the future, as possibly hinted by film red.

If Usopp's Slingshot gets a Zoan fruit, I'm pretty sure that means about 30% of the crew would use (in some capacity) a Zoan Devil Fruit, effectively making them closer to Kaido's dream of an all-Zoan crew by default - since most of Kaido's crew were using SMILES, at most 10% of the mooks were Zoans, and all the Waiters didn't have fruits at all, offsetting any true Logias in the crew.

Reminds me of the Batman Gambit.

[@Joob_Toob]

I fucking love this theory because it doesn't just settle for what would be 'cool' for Usopp to have like a mythical zoan or broken Haki, it takes into account Usopp's fighting style and how he works as a character and gives him a power up that fits.

[@josguil]

“The hardest part of this battle was to pretend I was scared of you so you’d fall into my trap” - Usopp sometime in the future

[@BrunoNunes83]

Usopp must be a buccaneer, he can take some hit.

[@DrShleemDotCom]

Glad to see you back, best theories!

[@jeffreyfarrington5777]

It's probably just as likely that Usop found his kabuto slingshots off screen as him making one or both. Maybe Usop cleverly commandeered a weapon from the sea train and updated the design later

[@eptna]

great video! since it seems like egghead is coming to an end right now, i'm thinking it's less likely, but the events of the day long battle being kept hidden as well as the fact that usopp hasn't really fought in egghead make me think it could've happened off screen and we'll get a flashback or something during a fight in elbaph

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Fingers crossed!

[@johnlight8795]

It's like when someone invents something so obvious it angers you!!!! Great theory man!!!!

[@ByrneBaby]

Kabuto was definitely made right after the fight with Luffy. Usopp most likely made it in response to losing so badly to his former captain and as a way to steel his resolve for going to Enies Lobby as Sniper King. The thought process being "If I'm going to help Robin, I'll need a better weapon." He was given full ownership of Merry after the fight, and so he had access to his workshop for the entire time prior to the Sea Train arc. My best guess is he used scrap and wood planks from around Water Seven to make it, since there's plenty of it around to use and he has tons of experience being the ship's carpenter prior to Franky joining. The climate baton upgrades he made were on short notice, too, so it stands to reason he could very easily and very quickly make himself a better slingshot with enough time and resources, and he had plenty while the coup was happening in the mansion, as well as after meeting Franky and learning Merry can't be saved. ALSO, yeah, it was confirmed that because zoan fruits have their own personalities/souls, they're uniquely able to be applied to inanimate objects.

[@igbl108]

I love this theory! Kabuto is also used as a way to describe a helmut, so it would give Usopp enough protection to allow for some confidence :) Amazing video man, keep it up!

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!

[@1forthepriceof218]

I always liked the idea of Usopp feeding his slingshot an eagle Zoan since they have the best eyesight of any bird, which is useful for a sniper and could give him a much-needed edge over the likes of Van Augur along with giving him the ability to fly. It might not fit the name Kabuto, but hey.

[@arthursboypusshe3613]

Don’t think it’ll happen but Kuma is almost guaranteed to die before Egghead is over. His dream is done, he’s pretty much ensured Bonney’s protection AND he’s seen/helped Nika. It would be really interesting to see how Usopp, a sniper, would use Kuma’s teleportation df

[@leaode_cafe]

imagine if black kabuto starts eating egg head debris and in an accident eat a devil fruit that allows ussop to actually deal damage to the gorosei

[@TheCrapCafe_]

What a great way for Oda to give Usopp this power up!

[@Sumsumsum-ws1zo]

Good Theory, love it. And it makes a lot of sense too.

[@thetacog]

If Usopp DOES get a devil fruit for Kabuto, I think it'd happen as a part of a fun gag where Usopp wants to eat the fruit but is startled or fumbles it and Kabuto ends up eating it first

[@justinclayton4243]

I like the imagery of the thumbnail but it got me thinking of his slingshot getting a beetle devil fruit that gives him flight as well as the slingshot horn on the beetle.

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Nah, seems like a strech lol

[@doubledamn2599]

I would've liked Usopp to keep the staff form as a quarterstaff close combat option.

[@dittosame-o67]

I think I’ve only seen him use it like a bo staff one time.

[@leathmccaffrey1532]

This is my first video of yours. I haven't watched it yet, but I love One Piece theories and I love the joke your name is referencing. Edit: I loved the theory and the video as a whole!

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@chromethug]

usopp riding a heracross is my new favorite headcannon

[@gettingcomfy]

man i love your channel - literally always cooking 🔥 if you ever need background music, hit me up 😊🔥

[@TheCrapCafe_]

Hell yeah! Your stuffs really great! I'm still trying to wrap my brain around the mixing and the vibe I'm looking for, but I'll reach out soon!

[@zombathinlostleghackercat5233]

Usopp vs Auger will be like Goku vs Hit.

[@zombathinlostleghackercat5233]

Oh, never mind.

[@Chiefshielda]

Holy shit, you are cooking. I've never even thought about this being a possibility. I hope to Oda that you're actually right about this theory. It'd be so very rewarding, especially after Usopp almost didn't get any time to shine in Wano/Egghead. Let's hope you're right

[@Euphoryaaa]

This was a pretty good theory, I’m glad this is finally being discussed.
