I don't know what got me into thinking this, but it always seemed obvious to me that Sabo was the more intellectual of the 3 brothers. Not only that, but I remember a little anime filler moment where Sabo was informed about Luffy's devil fruit ability and started making remarks about all the things he could use with his rubber properties. Now seeing that Sabo just accompany Luffy later in future arcs, it raises my interest that Sabo could potentially help Luffy's Gomu Gomu no Mi abilities. Granted, it might be off-panel considering Oda doesn't like to display training at all, but is it plausible? What do you guys think?
Could Sabo hone Luffy's Devil Fruit?

It'd be kinda weird to have Sabo just tag along with the SH in future arcs(Oda probably has a plan for him after Dressrosa), but I can see him helping Luffy a bit.
-
Luffy is pretty creative on his own.

Combat-wise, there aren't many people in OP world that is more intelligent than Luffy. The way Luffy handled Eneru's Mantra in Skypiea is more than enough evidence.

I wonder why Oda dislikes training so much? In Enies Lobby, the training was implied,but nobody mentioned Luffy practicing Gear Second until he used it.

You wanted Oda to show all the 2 year training of each SH?

Training is pretty boring.
The only reason we saw any of Luffy's training at all so was we could have the types of haki explained to both Luffy and us as an audience.
I can't see Sabo being able to do any more with Luffy's DF than Luffy himself has tbh.

No, I wanted to see at least a little bit of the training they did in between Water 7 and Enies Lobby.

The only one we see train is zoro. I would love to see how the other strawhats maintain their physical/combative prowess.
