Chương 41: Chapter 41: Usopp's Path to Godhood!
"My destiny? What does that mean!?"
After the recent illusion and witnessing Leo's abilities, Usopp knew that the person in front of him was anything but ordinary. Yet, this extraordinary person had just praised his destiny. This left Usopp momentarily at a loss. Despite his daily bravado, Usopp often looked down on himself the most. This deep-seated inferiority complex drove him from being an ordinary villager to becoming [GOD. Usopp], someone everyone noticed.
Leo wondered if Usopp, knowing his future achievements in advance, would still harbor such feelings of inferiority.
"Yes, your destiny!" Leo answered. A magical light flashed from his pupils as he stared at everyone present with unparalleled pressure.
"My eyes can see the trajectory of each of your destinies. This is also the main basis for me to find trading partners," Leo said, his face blooming with a mysterious smile. "In the future, or the unchanged future, your achievements have successfully attracted my attention. Although you may not have the capital to trade now, I believe that this is nothing to you. Your future deserves more of my attention."
After saying that, Leo smiled quietly and continued, "So, do you want to see your future with your own eyes?"
"I..." Usopp hesitated, not because he doubted Leo's words, but because he doubted how brilliant his future could be. He couldn't fathom what qualifications he had to be praised by someone with Leo's extraordinary means. Looking around, he saw everyone watching him with surprise and curiosity. One moment, they were shouting and beating him, and the next, they were paying attention to him. This transformation left him confused.
After some thought, Usopp nodded gently and said solemnly, "I want to see my future!"
"No one can escape the temptation of peeking into fate," Leo chuckled, having anticipated this answer. He released a strange power from his body, and with a vivid smile, murmured as if to himself, "Such an interesting story should be appreciated by more audiences."
Snap!
A crisp snap of fingers rang in everyone's ears. In an instant, everyone's bodies flew up as if their souls had left their bodies, losing gravity. A dazzling white light flashed, and everyone's consciousness appeared in the sky. A magical feeling emerged in their hearts. At this moment, they felt like gods, able to see and hear everything below clearly.
Usopp and Kaya's father, having experienced this once, were not too panicked and just looked down seriously, anticipating what Leo would show them next.
Soon, an image of an older Usopp appeared before everyone's eyes. Judging from his appearance, it was Usopp as an adult.
"This... is this really what will happen in the future!?" Kaya's father looked at everything in shock, amazed by Leo's abilities.
At this moment, little Kaya in the Kurod suddenly said, "Huh? How did that long-nosed weirdo climb over the wall and get into our house again?"
The housekeeper Merry and the guards immediately cast vigilant looks at Usopp, who scratched his head in embarrassment. Would he really become a thief in the future?
The picture continued.
The older Usopp climbed a big tree with ease, knocked on a window with a small stone, and soon, a young girl poked her head out. The girl, in a cyan silk dress with fair and smooth skin, had a lovely appearance that aroused a strong protective desire. She was none other than the present Kaya.
Kaya's father frowned, realizing things were not that simple. When he looked at Usopp again, his eyes were filled with strong vigilance and rejection. Would this kid be with Kaya in the future?
Just as Kaya's father was speculating, Kaya in the picture said, "Usopp-san! You are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time!" The screen was struck by lightning! Everyone present seemed to be shot in the heart with an arrow of barbed, painful poison. Did they hear it right? Miss Kaya, the manor's most precious treasure, called this kid's name so intimately and looked forward to meeting him.
A blazing flame rose in everyone's eyes, especially Kaya's father's, whose anger could host a barbecue party.
Kaya's next words shocked everyone even more. "Since my parents passed away, the thing I look forward to most every day is to listen to Usopp-san's story."
"..."
"...…"
The scene fell silent.
"Di...died!?" Kaya's father's lips trembled as he looked at Kaya and Usopp below. Although this was a future scene, from Kaya and Usopp's appearance, it seemed to be in a few years. At that time, he and his wife were no longer in the world?
For the first time, Kaya's father felt afraid of the future. Everyone stopped communicating and began watching the "micro-movie" below quietly. Their faces were very expressive, their eyes flashing with unknown thoughts.
Seeing this, Leo laughed secretly. The picture below was made based on the plot of One Piece in his memory, but this adapted version excluded the Straw Hat Pirates. Given his arrival, it was unknown if they would exist in the future. He didn't want to influence this.
In the picture, Usopp soon discovered Kuro's conspiracy. Kaya's father also learned the real cause of his death, surprisingly recognizing Kuro as the thief who robbed him that morning. Realizing he would take in a thief as a housekeeper made his future death seem not so unfair.
The story continued to Usopp intercepting the Black Cat Pirates alone. In the picture, he was covered in blood, shouting, "Even if I am not your opponent, I will never let you pass! I am a brave sea warrior—Captain Usopp! I will never let you touch the villagers!!!"
After his heart-wrenching shout, the expressions of those present changed again. Everyone stared at him with bright eyes. Usopp's courage and responsibility made them sweat. Even Kaya, who disliked Usopp, looked at him differently now. Girls always yearn for heroes.
With the Straw Hat Pirates excluded, the subsequent story did not appear. The village was saved, and after a heartfelt farewell to Kaya, Usopp resolutely decided to go to sea. From this moment on, his road to becoming a god officially began!
