Forum:Straw hat haki

I believe that each Strawhat member is going to get some form of haki after the 2 year skip. Raleigh said that haki could be used in different unique ways. I think because they will not get direct training, the other Strawhats will learn about the Haki later on or during the course of a hard battle.

Luffy: Since he is getting direct training I believe he will have a basic concept on all of them but the one that he will probably gravitate towards will be the armor one to hit logia type users.

Zoro: Zoro will probably learn how to put haki on his swords. The air slicing techniques will probably become extra strong and hurt logia types.

Sanji: Haki imbued kicks. Sort of obvious

Nami: I think her ability to basically sense the weather is a form of haki in and of itself. The haki where you can sense your surroundings and the next persons move. This makes her able to dodge opponents better too.

Ussop: He will be able to put haki on his projectiles like the amazons. I also think that Ussop will only be able to use his haki atttacks will he is Sogeking.I think Van Augar uses haki to attack from farther away because of him hitting that seagull and knowing that it didn't die. Ussop could get that too maybe

Chopper: Maybe he can use a form of haki to tell what is wrong with someone without examining them. This will make him a far better doctor and he can find a person's weakness easy.

Robin: Use the haki to sense people far away and use her attack on them from a far greater distance.

Franky: I don't know about him, he will probably just have a whole new array of weapons to use.

Brook: Seeing Scratchman Apoo attack Kizaru made me think that maybe Brook can infuse haki on his music and cause blades. This will also explain how he gets out of that cage. It will be cool to see Brook being able to cause illusions with the music he plays. He already can make people sleep, maybe with haki music he can affect what you see or make you dizzy by attacking the inner ear.

This is pretty good.

I agree. Though I don't really think I would like for all of them to learn haki, I think this way is pretty cool, rather than having them know one of the colors of haki, have them focus on one of them and infuse it with their specialty. I could absolutely see Usopp learning how to infuse haki into bullets or weapons, Robins color of observation to find people and attack from a great distance and Chopper's color of observation to figure out what's wrong with somebody is genius.

Yeah i agree with you too.

I dunno, I feel like each member will get good at what they need to be good at (i.e. their role in the crew) first, and Haki and other abilities will come secondary. Of course Luffy is gonna get a great deal of training of his already-awakened Haki, Rayleigh pretty much said it out loud. However, if you look at the others, they're already in positions in which they're already suited for improvement of their specific field.

Zoro is stuck on an island and training with Mihawk, the greatest swordsman in the One Piece universe.

Nami is at Weatheria, the weather capital of the world.

Usopp is learning to become a mighty warrior as he fights alongside Heracles (who was named after a mighty warrior himself).

Sanji is in the Kamabakka Kingdom, where the residents not only know diesel kickboxing techniques, but can cook up a darn good dinner as well.

Chopper is on an island that has one of the most massive libraries we've seen, as well as exotic rainforest-esque plants that could be potential medicines.

Robin is doing God-knows-what, but it involves the Revolutionaries so it's gotta be important.

Franky is at the most technologically advanced location in the One Piece universe reading up on a mysterious professor's blueprints.

And Brook is a traveling performer. (Yeah, that one's kinda lame, but he's still refining his skills as a musician.)

Anyway, I don't think each of them will develop Haki, because if every single Strawhat has it, it'll lose its coolness. If anyone else, I'd have to say Usopp is the most likely candidate, as his training is closest to what Luffy is going through right now (sans the rapidly changing climate). 2xN 23:55, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

Just because you get a color of the haki doesnt mean that its going to be the same for everyone. Haki is their ambition, and I think that the Strawhats are the most ambitious to reach their goals. Brook refining his skills as a musician is all well and good, but Oda isn't gonna give them this time period to just improve on what they are one of the best at. Naturally they will get stronger, the main focus is to keep the manga going by making them efficient in their fights. As their role on the ship, that just makes it more realistic as to how they travel the New World. Their personal goals are now second to Luffy's goal, and in order to make his happen they must become stronger fighters too. Also Sanji is not just learning how to cook a good dinner, but its food prepared in a way that gives the user energy and muscle building supplements, maybe the Okamas are able to infuse haki into their meals.


 * Truth be told, I don't really wanna see the use of Haki for everything, cause then it gets way overplayed and again, loses its coolness. 2xN 20:07, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
