well the more you get into the show and learn about haki you go back and realise that alot of times haki was used but since it was such a small amount its unseen to the user and others.....so I believe it his will to eat was so strong he used armament haki against smoker lmao
We don’t talk about “gum gum restaurant”💀💀💀 Edit:Yall ruining my sleep schedule with the notifications 😭😭😭 Edit2: There’s 3 comments just like this idk who stole who’s anymore man lol Edit3: 100 likes away from 2k come on boiz we got this
You see, what you don't know is that due to the hat being worn by Shanks and Rodger for so long, it's infused with his Haki and technically counts as a Haki infused item. Long story short, Luffy could have saved himself a lot of trouble if he just head butted his villains with the hat on.
The logia properties only take affect if the user is actively using them. They don’t need to be using any specific move, but they need to atleast be using the power for punches and other things to go through. Neither ace or smoker had time to notice and react to luffy coming in that fast, so luffy is able to hit them before either of them turns on their powers. If he tried that a second time, luffy would go through the both of them.
This is not that complex, you can see that luffy hits smokers lower back, why is this important you may ask, sea prism stone is infused into that said weapon, but hitting ace as well is a whole different story.
Its because the tip of smokers weapon has something that i forgot what but it deactivates devil fruit users powers and weakens the user and when luffy hit smokers back with the tip of his weapon and disabled his logia fruit power to phase through stuff
I just realised luffy is the best devil fruit user he hit 3 logia users in one arc without haki (yes I know crocodile had the water weakness but still it wasn’t Haki)
the first time after the backstory or if you go by episodes bc episode wise, that’s the first time we see ace and luffy but then we see the backstory later
Its called logia dodges it must be activated since it was from behind and they didnt know luffy could hit them because ace and smoker didnt have their logia dodges on.
I think logia ins't actually imunity, its the fact that the user can transform in the element fast enough to not get hit. I think the armament haki is just able to hit the logia types because it hides the attacks (or its a repellent like an oceanite) during Luffy's training, Raylegh at the end of observation haki training, he says "how did you dodge it? I hided it completely!"
U can just lure the luffy with meat on a stick and he kills anything in his way even if it’s logia or even kaido he doesn’t care about how physics works he wants meat
My head canon is because he hit smokers sea prism weapon, that negated his logia (as well as him being inexperienced with it), and ace having fallen asleep a second before
You wanna know a cool theory I think that since the straw hat was Roger’s and shanks I think it is full of haki but luffy dose t know that and that why it hit smoker and shanks
Would have been funny if he went right threw both of them, and straight into the food storage room and starts chowing down. The store owner gets mad, and Ace and Smokey have the same reaction, super shocked and confused. But while Smoker's reaction turns into annoyance, Ace's reaction turns into endearment/amusement.
For anyone who doesn’t understand ace is made of fire so physical attacks can’t touch him and smoker is made of smoke so physical attacks can’t hit him either
Everyone be like: YEAH ZORO USED OBSERVATION HAKI BEFORE IT WAS INTRODUCED THAT’S CRAZY! Luffy be like: I used armament haki before it was introduced and I was an arc early
I thought the logia effect was automatic I didn’t know logia users are supposed to control it since he said luffy caught them off guard so he was able to hit them
A reminder that Luffy and other characters always have and exhibit traits of Haki, but not willingly or controlled without training. If you buy that "luffys blood let him punch Crocodile" bit I don't know what to tell you. Bro had haki in Alabasta, and so did Zoro.
