One Piece and Snipers

I find it fascinating how the One Piece fandom is knowledgeable about snipers and how they are part of a crew, but snipers haven't been prominently featured. I hope that characters like Yasopp or other snipers are given more attention so we can learn more about how snipers function in the One Piece world. Despite its long run, One Piece hasn't focused much on snipers, and I believe there is a lot of potential in exploring their role. Learning about Yasopp being a renowned sniper before joining Shanks' crew makes me curious about their backstory and abilities.

Seriously, Van Augur is finally getting some well-deserved spotlight, and his mystique is really intriguing. It's frustrating how critical people are of Usopp's position as a sniper as if they don't even consider him a 'real' sniper anymore, which I find absurd.

But my point is, if the sniper role was given the spotlight in a few chapters or episodes, it would shed light on a lot of things. For example, it would make people see how cool Usopp's role is, we would understand why his dad is renowned for his sniping, and perhaps we would see what a sniper duel is all about. I even think back to Marineford when Van Augur pointed his gun and Yasopp flashed his, and I wonder if that could one day serve as a foreshadowing.

I am genuinely intrigued by the lack of sniper action in One Piece. Despite the hype around the sniper role, characters like Usopp barely get any action. I'm looking forward to seeing a classic sniper scene where a team is facing a big enemy and the sniper takes down countless enemies to reach the main villain. It would be great to see a moment where the team is at a stalemate, and the sniper comes in to save the day with a well-timed shot from a distance. However, since Oda hasn't focused much on snipers in the series, it's unclear what being a sniper in the One Piece world really entails. Dressrosa counts, but it barely even skimmed the surface.

In my personal fan theory, I like to think that Yasopp was already well-known as a skilled sniper before joining Shanks because he had been defending Syrup Village from pirates. I imagine that the pirates started to refer to him as "Chaser," the sharpshooter who could drive them away. It would also be interesting to see how his observation haki awakening happened.

Anyway, I hope Oda will give more attention to snipers in the future.

Does Sniper Island really exist?

IOF Sniping A 9 Year Old

A snipers from the Jewish State deliberately shot 9-year-old Alaa Abu Aasi at her spine, intending to execute her directly when she was playing near her tent after her home was destroyed.

This is not “self-defense”.

I love snipers...

I just realized…

God Usopp’s greatest rivals are potentially his dad and a priest. Not only that, but his captain is an emperor just like theirs—respectively.

I don’t know why it just hit me. Usopp is a sniper who’s part of a Yonko crew, just like his dad Yasopp and that mysterious teleporting priest no one wants to talk about or can’t stop talking about. WOW. So, that's why people think Usopp has nothing to offer…Oda needs to show us what Usopp’s all about. He's Strawhat Luffy’s sniper. Which means, how dispensable is his role if every emperor besides Buggy has a sniper? That's fate bruh...it has meaning!
