Who is Usopp?

Usopp is the Straw Hat Pirates' sniper and one of the most beloved characters in One Piece. Born in Syrup Village, he spent his childhood telling outrageous lies to the sick villagers — a habit that masked a desperate longing for his pirate father, Yasopp.

Though he pretends to be a coward, Usopp has time and again thrown himself into danger for the people he loves. When everything is on the line, his trembling hands somehow find perfect aim. That is the miracle of Usopp.

"I'm not gonna run away. I never go back on my word. That's my nindo — my ninja way! Wait, wrong show. That's my pirate way!"
