So soon people forget that haki is not a requirement to be in the New World but it will be if you want dominate it. If you remember back to when WB and Shanks met in NW, many of the crew had no idea what the Haki was doing to the crew. If so many men from a Yonko's crew had no knowledge of it and I would expect that they have gotten through many battles without having had to deal much with it. I don't expect each SH to obtain some form of Haki but I do expect each of the crew to gain an understanding how to counter attack, just like Nami demonstrating in this chapter.
