More than any other story I've experienced, One Piece lets character traits simply be traits without pigeonholing them as being positive or negative. You see it most with Usopp and Sanji, but much like Sanji's chivalry, Usopp's negativity is presented as part of who he is. It's not something that must be overcome in order to become a better, more complete person. While it gets him into trouble during Water 7, without it the Straw Hats would have lost here at Thriller Bark.
It feels very much like a role reversal from when Sanji saved Usopp from Jabra back on Enies Lobby. Usopp's particular brand of negativity is something only he can do, and for once the rest of the crew has to depend on him to save the day. While there is character development for Usopp during this fight, the core of who he is as a person doesn't change, and that's a really interesting way to handle character development.

And just like the others can depend on Usopp to beat Perona because of his specific ability, Usopp has to depend on the others to defeat the "weaker" zombies surrounding the room, because he's not strong enough to fight them on his own. Even when Usopp gets his hero moment, he has to rely on others to cover his weaknesses.

I enjoy how Oda shows the maturation of the crew during the fight with Oars. It's fitting that it starts off with Usopp insisting that Luffy will save the day, since he was the one who showed the most doubt during Water 7. He's overcome that and reinstated his utmost faith in his captain's ability, but as always Zoro is the down to earth realist of the crew. He's not doubting Luffy's strength, but taking into account his very real weakness to trickery and deception. It helps that Oda starts the chapter by showing Luffy being tricked by Moriah's shadow into running back out to the woods, far away from where he should be. It's the narrative going out if its way to prove that Zoro's right, and this is very much something they should be worried about.
And instead of arguing about it or getting freaked out, the rest of the crew agree that Zoro's got a point and they can't sit around twiddling their thumbs waiting to be saved. The speech ends with Zoro once again affirming is faith in Luffy's abilty to defeat Moriah. It all feels very appropriate for a good number two, but that kind of stability and practicality isn't unusual for Zoro. It's the fact that the rest of the crew rallies behind him is what really solidifies the crew's growth as a group. This isn't a bunch of individuals who happen to be fighting for a common goal; they are the Straw Hat Pirates.

Lmao I just got this idea.
Imagine this:
When Momo and He Tian got married, they will definitely have one or two (or maybe even three) children. So, He Tian would casually drop his kids (when they are old enough) in front of He Cheng’s front door and gtf outta there to go and have a date with Momo.
Lmao I can totally see this happening. Then He Cheng will look at Qiu with his deadpan expression and Qiu would say, ‘Nope. Not gonna do it’

Synergy
Harry hadn't believed he and Draco Malfoy would be a good team when the Ministry had partnered them after basic training.
But partnering with Draco was everything. Every movement in tandem, every thought shared without words.
The only thing that the two of them were better suited for was fucking.
Written for the @microficmay prompt: synergy (read more of my microfic may drarry fics)
