"Hehehe, delicious!"
Luffy, invited by Usopp, picked up a piece of meat, took a big bite, and shouted loudly.
Beside him, Law was also eating rapidly.
Law, who had already gained a superhuman physique (deep purple), now had an appetite no less than Luffy's.
Not just Luffy, Law was also getting tired of eating apples.
Moreover, the nutrients from these meats could be rapidly absorbed through his superhuman physique (deep purple), strengthening Law's body.
"It's delicious, right? I didn't expect you to know my dad, Luffy."
Usopp smiled happily, delighted to hear news of his father, Yasopp.
"I saw him when I was little. You look exactly like him, so I recognized you at first glance," Luffy said while eating meat.
"So my dad is on that great pirate Shanks' ship, huh?"
Usopp's face was filled with longing.
"Speaking of which, your dad's marksmanship is really accurate."
Luffy's eyes also showed a nostalgic look.
"I've heard too much about you from Yasopp; my ears are practically calloused. Yasopp is an excellent pirate," Luffy chuckled.
"That's right! I'm proud of a father who rushes out to sea, risking his life, heedless of consequences!"
Usopp's face was filled with pride.
"Check term."
At this moment, Law, who had finished all the meat on the table, finally had time to check Usopp's terms.
If he hadn't eaten quickly just now, all the meat would have been devoured by Luffy.
Term (Usopp): Slingshot Sniper (light purple), Inventor (light purple), Anthem of Courage (special).
Slingshot Sniper (light purple): Possesses incredibly strong sniping talent. Uses a slingshot for sniping, even better than firearms.
Inventor (light purple): Possesses outstanding invention talent, capable of inventing various tools.
Slingshot Sniper (light purple) is a combat-related term. Like Superhuman Physique (deep purple),
The current displayed term level is only related to Usopp's current sniping ability's overall combat power,
It has nothing to do with the upper limit of Usopp's future sniping ability.
In the world of pirates, snipers, merely relying on their sniping ability to display combat power, won't be very high. After all, in the world of pirates, the power of firearms is useless against true strong individuals.
Usopp, who had not yet trained, combined with the special ammunition invented by Inventor (light purple), only then possessed a light purple level combat term.
Super strong sniper, the upper limit of combat power, all rely on the power of Haki,
Therefore, not yet having Haki, but already possessing a light purple level sniping ability term, proved Usopp's sniping talent was not inferior to his father Yasopp.
Of course, it's not that sniping ability isn't important. Haki control is difficult, and it needs to be attached to bullets to precisely hit enemies. The stronger the Haki, the more difficult the sniping.
Only a super strong sniping ability can accurately hit enemies with bullets attached with super strong Haki.
Usopp later used special plants for sniping attacks, which was also the same principle. Only a super strong sniping ability could precisely snipe those special plants to the right position to cause maximum damage to the enemy.
Even a sniper with Observation Haki was the same.
After all, although Observation Haki can tell the sniper the target's position, being able to "see" doesn't mean being able to hit.
To hit the target accurately, it still relies on sniping ability.
Inventor (light purple) is a non-combat term similar to navigation. The displayed term level is based on Usopp's current invention ability.
In the future, as Usopp's ability grows stronger, these two terms will also upgrade accordingly.
However, even so, Usopp's current terms, compared to Luffy's and Zoro's, were just ordinary.
But the last special term was completely different.
Law's eyes narrowed slightly.
Anthem of Courage (special): Cowardice is the nature of living beings, courage is the anthem of humanity! A person who is naturally timid and cowardly, but at a crucial moment, can sing the anthem of human courage! Unleashing power far beyond one's own strength, turning the tide of battle.
Law looked at this term, and a look of appreciation appeared in his eyes.
Usopp, naturally timid and cowardly. He could even be said to be the most timid and cowardly among the Straw Hat Pirates' timid trio.
After all, even the negative ghosts from the Hollow-Hollow Fruit couldn't make Usopp depressed.
Because Usopp was already extremely timid and depressed, even Devil Fruits were useless against him.
Compared to Zoro, Luffy, and others, Usopp's character design was indeed not very likable.
But it wasn't Usopp's fault. After all, it was innate, genetic. Usopp simply couldn't change it.
What was valuable about Usopp was that he could overcome his genetic flaws and, at crucial moments, sing the anthem of human courage!
And Usopp, who was naturally extremely timid and negative, to have such a performance, was even more precious than ordinary people who were not so timid.
His lifelong dream was to become a brave warrior of the sea. And Usopp, with his actions, proved his capacity.
Law also recognized such a man.
"Since you two know each other, that makes things easier. I wonder if we can find a partner who can drive a ship and get a large ship in your village?"
Nami smiled, looking at Usopp.
"As you can see, this is a small village. I might disappoint you."
Usopp's eyes darted away slightly.
"On the hill, there's a large villa."
Zoro suddenly said.
"!!!"
Usopp's expression instantly changed.
Nami accurately caught this change.
"Eh? Is he Usopp's friend? Can I ask him for some money?"
Nami's eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled.
"That place is no good!"
Usopp reacted as if he had been stung, shouting loudly.
"Hmm?"
Luffy and the others looked at Usopp in surprise.
"That, I suddenly remembered I have something to do. I'm very familiar with the boss here. You guys enjoy yourselves. I'm leaving now. Goodbye!"
Usopp ran off in a flash.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Nami looked at Usopp's retreating back, somewhat puzzled.
"Gulp!"
Luffy then ate his apple.
"What exactly happened? We'll know if we go take a look, right, Luffy."
Law's lips curved slightly.
That villa belonged to Usopp's friend, Kaya.
And in that villa, there was also a pirate hiding, Captain Kuro, with a bounty of 16 million Berries.
This bounty, plus his performance in the original story, meant Kuro should have a purple combat-type term, which could be used for upgrading.
No matter how small a mosquito, it's still meat. He was about to enter the Grand Line, so Law wouldn't let go of any opportunity to get stronger.
"That's right, hehehe."
Luffy smiled.
