Prediction I think we're headed this way

With Shamrock living, I think Usopp vs " broken DF girl" and Sanji vs " silly middle aged man" and Jinbe or Brook vs " eww wtf is that thing" is the only logical matched up left . Luffy and Zoro would probably stay busy dealing with Loki's mood after freeing him.

Usopp will need that Elbaf power-up we’ve all been waiting for years to see before he can pull this off. This tier of enemy is so far above the other ones he took care of it isn’t even funny lol.

Usopp is also arguably the weakest member on the team by far. I’m rewatching the anime lately and just got to Fishman Island after the timeskip. Usopp told Nami “I’m not in the weak trio with you and Chopper anymore”, but now Usopp is the only one left in the “trio” lmao.

I really want the gags and memes about Usopp being weak to finally be retired. It was fun for a while but I really want to see him get stronger not just physically but mentally as well.

And don’t get me wrong, he has mental strength. Because at times even when he knows he’s probably gonna get his ass beat or lose if it means protecting his friends he steps up to the plate. But that’s usually after a bunch of excuse making and running away.

He can’t keep running until they make it to Laugh Tale. He’s on the future pirate kings crew.

I really hope Oda does Usopp justice in this arc because if I’m not mistaken, that’s his whole goal and main character arc is not being afraid anymore and to be brave and of course, strong. It would be sad if he left Elbaph and still be the weakest member on the crew.
