User blog comment:Blackendedsoul/Possible Haki of Blackbeard/@comment-69.243.149.190-20110730144148

As far as i know BB might not have Haki since he hasn't shown it. Havin the Gura Gura no Mi(darkness) is usually his answer to Logia(any other devil fruit type) DF users. Shanks mentioned that he wasnt expecting to get attacked by Blackbeard and therefore receiving his scar since he didnt do anything that would've made Teach attack him. The reason i brought that up is because u cant have Haki equipped all the time. Similar to Logia DF. Luffy ramming Smoker by accident since he(Smoker) didnt know he was gonna get hit in Arabasta.
