Of Old English origin, shortening of "Good Speed," and contrary to popular belief has nothing to do with God. People would say this to others who were leaving on a long and perilous journey, wishing them success, but more importantly wishing for their return.
It's a dangerous and unforgiving sea, yet the sailors had no fear. They set course due West with no way to measure longitude and only crude instruments to determine latitude by the stars. Their friends and family at the docks had only one thing to say to them - "Godspeed."

The fastest guy ever. He runs so fast that he breaks the time barrier, allowing him to travel through time. While he may have speed, he lacks control of his useful and powerful ability. He wins gold at every Olympics until the point that he was not allowed to take part in the competition. That made him so upset that he decided to become a villain and tear down every Olympics that were held. After doing it twice, he realised that he could do more than just that, and that's what he did. He is the main cause of all the unexplained mysteries such as blobs falling from the sky and sea creatures dead on shores. Godspeed, is unstoppable.

Essentially, the phrase godspeed holds the intention of a personal blessing. It is a somewhat old-fashioned saying often used sarcastically or in a humorous fashion, yet genuine earnest and/or true concern can also be one's meaning when using this expression. The intent is to convey hope or desire for another person to successfully accomplish or complete a difficult task, mission, or journey either currently underway or about to be undertaken. Oftentimes the endeavor at hand is complex and arduous if not convoluted, having little chance of success.
"I say goodbye, good luck, and godspeed to you sir; I hope you attain rapid success and wish you the best of luck on your upcoming journey!"
