Chapter 830: He Who Gets Bet On

Why are people saying that Ace never showed usage of haki?
There's a specific scene in the childhood flashback where he obviously knocked out a bunch of thugs in the trash fire by using conqueror's haki. That was as a child.
OOOOH I forgot that scene. I suppose one could discover conquers haki when he was a kid and then never develop other haki techniques…but that is quite the leap!

@Monkey:
There is no question Oda had a clear idea of Haki by the point of Skypiea.
GAH by quoting you, I feel like when Usopp almost shot Lucci, but then Lucci glared at him and then he didn't do shit.
WITH THE MOST RESPECT IN THE W-W-W-WORLD MR. MONKEYKING COULDNT ODA HAVE POSSIBLY JUST DECIDEDED TO B-B-B-BUILD OFF OF MANTRA L-LATER ON?
I DONT NECC-CC-CC-ESSARILY THINK THAT'S TRUE OR ANYTHING, AND I PERSONALLY WANT ODA TO HAVE BEEN THE PERFECT DAY ONE PLANNER, BUT I JUST MEAN, IT SEEMS
P-P-POSSSSSSSSSS-It coulda happened.I mean I really do think there's a good shot that Oda had the idea of haki since chapter one, but I think Oda looks like a good story teller in either scenario. Either he was thinking ahead a whole whole lot OR he found good material to work with by going through his own past chapters.

just for the record,
Haki was first mentioned by Blackbeard in Mock Town on Jaya,
when he picks Luffy's 100 million bounty off the ground, Blackbeard comments on the fact
that he already thought that the "30 million" bounty was low for a kid with that kind of Haki.episode 151 to be exact.
at that point in time though, NOBODY knew about it,
and it was just a word that was translated by Kaizoku-Fansubs as "ambition" -

Mantra was really random and didn't make much sense in a vacuum. No one particularly thought about it too hard back then, we just sort of shrugged. The arc was already really sort of off in its own little world compared to contemporary One Piece. So that made it kind of easy to shrug about.
But if you really look at it, its very specific and colored by some really out there powers. Like at first you could kinda just go "Alright I guess they're slightly like psychic or something, predicting moves and stuff." But then that got expanded and we see that Ener can like…be completely aware of where all the people in his land are at any time. And that ain't no psychic power. And then just to make matters weirder you have the same power in a random little girl who obviously isn't a trained warrior monk or god or anything.
And then the arc ended without ever really explaining it or much addressing it to begin with.
We all shrugged. But it was really weird.I DONT NECC-CC-CC-ESSARILY THINK THAT'S TRUE OR ANYTHING, AND I PERSONALLY WANT ODA TO HAVE BEEN THE PERFECT DAY ONE PLANNER, BUT I JUST MEAN, IT SEEMS
Well thats not day one though, that's day….er volume 26.

and it was just a word that was translated by Kaizoku-Fansubs as "ambition"That's why I have gripes with the official english translations using the word "Haki". I know WHY they use it, as it stands out like Ki in Dragon Ball or Chakra in Naruto, but I think "Spirit" is a good way to translate it. Fits the same meaning more or less as "ambition", fits the mouth flaps for the anime, and is pretty much what Haki is: fighting spirit.
-
Nah, it shouldn't be translated. There's an obvious difference between Haki and regular ambition, so to refer to it in English would be…confusing.
-
Is there really an obvious difference, though? If everyone - and I mean literally everyone (as in universe people who are experts on the subject have said) has it?
All of the colors of haki have been said to be the result of simply believing in yourself - believing in the strength of your will, believing in your ability to connect to others, believing in the importance of your ideal over others, etc.
-
I want to change subject of discussion.
Who else felt like Pedro gotten a lot of build up this chapter ? For now we only seen him being sneaky guy who can hide his presence but at same time we get hints here and there that when it comes to fighting he is really strong. I mean like second to Dukes I would say.
Who else thinks same ?
-
Aside from Brook moving an inch, there's really no indicator that time passed between those panels.
He went from sheathing his sword on the grassy part of the deck, to steering the ship and asking Nami if he should continue steering in the same direction now that they've found the island. That's a pretty clear indication that time passed.
And Ace's bounty worth 550millions, while Jack has a bounty of 1billion.
Ace was a pirate for three years. Marco has been a pirate for decades. Even if they were similarly strong, Marco (and likely, people like Jack) would have had more time to build infamy and show how strong they are. And Jack is fucking crazy, and just goes rampaging around, so it's only natural he'll have a higher bounty than a fairly peaceable sort like Ace.

@Monkey:

Sorry, I mentally jumped to talking about Shanks's conquerors haki in my head when I typed that.
Mantra, to me, still seems like it could have been its own unique sky island ability, but it seems like a small point to argue. I pretty much think and hope you are correct. -

An in-arc support character getting development is not a noteworthy thing at all.

He's probably one of the strongests minks showed so far (even if we didn't have the opportunity to see his potential yet), and I suppose we'll see more of this when he come back from the poneglyphs (maybe even before). But more than the question about how strong he really is, what could be really important is what is real relationship with the Yonkous (is he related with Kaidou like many people believe? This is one of the possibilities that can change the results of this arc…)
But, regardless of the trues about him, I still prefer Carrot as next mugiwara :ninja:
-
For me transforming Mantra into Color of observation is a retcon. That all this guys knows only one form of haki doesn’t really make sense if Oda really had the attention of introducing haki in is current form from first chapter.
Of course there is no way to know who is right but the difference of the people using it after the timeskip and before Saobondy is to huge for me to believe he had the concept clear in mind from day one.
Anyway, if Bellamy and Smoker were able to learn it during the 2 years so should people like Crocodile, Lucci or Jinbei -
Yeah, but Ace's DF isn't mud, but fucking fire.
http://www.mangareader.net/one-piece/441/26
or Enel's http://www.mangareader.net/one-piece/297/13You know all Logia aren't equal right ?
And I didn't say Ace is only relying on his DF. He's a very tough guy. He was damn strong without a DF, he's just stronger with it. Still don't have haki.
Using haki doesn't make you stronger than anyone who isn't using it.
And Ace's bounty worth 550millions, while Jack has a bounty of 1billion. See ? maybe he wasn't even that strong. We don't know Marco's bounty, maybe he's around 1billions too.
And so, what about Cavendish and Bartolomeo ? Are they using haki too ?
Well, nothing proves Ace could use haki. I'm done.
If Oda wants to confirm it, he'll say so through his sbs, till then, it's safe to assume he didn't use haki.kidd had a higher bounty than luffy because he went around killing innocent people jack does the same shit we saw him try to wipe out zou and a entire race.

@Monkey:

For me it makes him less dull than he was all the way till now. Especially with fact that he was beaten by Big Mom or some of her crewmates. With his "seniority" to Pekoms I would expect Pedro might end up fighting against one of "Commanders" of Big Mom crew.
One Piece could use somebody sacrificing himself for real to cover escape of main cast, but unlike Bon-chans "sacrifice" with real death. Pedro could be somebody like that. Btw this arc reminds me with how it seems to be constructed an Impel Down arc.
I so hope that this will be time of Crocodile returning to main story.. I want to see him badly, most anticipated villain return for me.
-
After this chapter I'm thinking that Pedro's role in the arc is really going to come down to getting Pekoms to quit Big Mom's pirates and either go back with Pedro to Zou or adventure as pirates on their own again after Wano. I'm sure we'll get there story and why Pekoms joined up with Big Mom pretty soon. After the Capone situation and all the stuff that will unfold with the Vinsmokes and Big Mom he'll probably be sticking with Pedro.

They just have a different name for haki so it is not a plot hole this is the one piece world skypiea is not controlled by the world goverment so it makes sense that they spell things differently we have so many different languages in our world that i wished i lived in the one piece world since it would a lot less differences and i would be able to talk to everyone.
-
I wonder what Capone's role is this arc, he can't be limited to BM's underling since he is a supernova.
Maybe he is after her poneglyph, maybe he plans to beat her up from the inside, but I'm sure he is not loyal to BM.
What if he plans to capture BM in his body, when he gets the chance, since that should be his best shot to beat her. Heck, what if Luffy fights wigth BM inside of Capone's body. There capone could give him a big help, since his interior seems under his full control.

Big Mom does not seem to be forgiving person and Pekoms decided that his personal feelings are over what Big Mom ordered. Tamago being old timer in Big Mom crew already said that Bege did what he should presumably killing Pekoms.
I thought about Pekoms motives for joining Big Mom in first place and I guess that he possibly kind of likes Big Mom "dream" of all races living together, that might be his dream. Like Jinbe wants future for fisman to be bright and at peace with humans it might be alike to what Pekoms wants. He seems to be decent person compared to Tamago or Big Mom or newbie that Bege is from what we seen till now.I would want Pekoms to stick with Strawhats, Luffy already became more fond of him than most character he meet since timeskip, I have high hopes with Lion Mink..

dwarf alliance crew,giant alliance crew and next is the mink alliance crew they don't even need a ship since they can travel around on zou lol.
no minks need to join the crew they're just a race of choppers.

Do not make all situations same.

And there is 7 humans in the crew. 3 paramcia DF users and 1 cyborg. Does this means the crew cannot have a genuine mink because there is someone who looks too much like one and not even another Zoan?

Crocodile entered the New World, and failed in it.
I don't know MK seemed to me like the only person who he lost too was Whitebeard which is okay since he's the Strongest man in the world. I don't think Ace knew haki but I'm not ruling it out as impossible, and I'm sure there's a comment from Blackbeard that ace relied too heavily on his DF which is why he lost. I'd have to look for the panel

Not to sure about that we had multiple crew members mention that they will negotiate with ' Mama ' to reach an agreement she seems to be like an understanding fine young lady, but I'll wait for the chapter to see what happens to Jinbe maybe she just relies on the spin wheel of death.

This is the New World. You don't get a participation medal, you either win (become pirate king) or lose. If Kaido beat Luffy, the excuse "well he's the strongest creature in the world" would not excuse Luffy's failure. Croc lost, and instead of staying and getting stronger, he gave up on his dream and hid in Paradise. That is nothing more than abject failure.
-

I know exactly what your talking but he was referring to his basic fighting capabilities, just like Sabo his basic fighting skills from being in Grey terminal made him very strong for his age.
-
Does seemingly killing her own son last chapter not count for anything? Then we see her this chapter chatting it up with Jinbe as if nothing happened. Now he may not be dead yet, but the way things look right now makes Big Mom come across as pretty cold blooded. At the very least she exhibits a kind of callousness Doflamingo didn't.
DoFlamingo murdered his own father & brother. He actively was out to exterminate every last person living in Dressrosa to protect his criminal empire/his rule over it as King.

I don't think he gave up, his next objective was to obtain one of the the ancient weapons when that didn't work out he's heading back to the new world. Besides Doffy I think Crocodile comes second to the mastery of DF's we've seen so far.

Sabo showed his COA and was using it frequently in his fights even after obtaining the mera-mera. I just think Ace was in the process of learning but hadn't done so yet.
-
Found it.
It still confuses me on how Ace never learned Armament or Observation Haki during his time in the NW. Hiding behind WB's mark certainly wasn't the reason why. I guess Ace's DF power is just THAT strong. Maybe one day the question will be asked in a SBS and Oda will give us a half-assed (or not) answer. Until that day comes, it's still a mystery…
-
Like a lot of posters I don't think its outrageous to assume someone of Jinbe or Ace's caliber would use haki, but it IS a fact that it hasn't been shown. It just hasn't. And a lot of you are being way too dismissive of Don Freecs's posts. Don never said once that they absolutely don't know it, but just because they suggest that they don't, some posters are being quite rude.
Thanks. I appreciate.
And actually, we can assume that the Busoshoku haki is teased since chapter 100, when Dragon stops Smoker. He doesn't even touch him, but well, we can still assume I guess.
And of course Oda thought about the 3 types of haki since chapter 1, there was absolutely no way that yhe hero could never beat Smoker. -

Burning is a much more useful ability than armement. He gets long range, short range, mobility. He focused on this first. Marco, Jozu and the other had something like 20 years at piracy more than enough time to learn. Ace was only a pirate for 3 years. Luffy has the advantage that his fruit definitely benefit from armament.
-
Sabo showed his COA and was using it frequently in his fights even after obtaining the mera-mera. I just think Ace was in the process of learning but hadn't done so yet.
It was just after timeskip that we were show haki users "hardening" their bodies when using it. And Rayleigh just showed that invisible armor in the end of the Pre-Timeskip, so just because we weren't show him blackening it does not means he didn't have CoA. Whitebeard also didn't showed CoA or even Blackbeard himself as well.
-
I don't see what is the big deal with Ace's haki, CoA and Coo in this case. Even if he had some, he likely wasn't that good with it. Oda didn't bother to hint or show he has it, except CoC.
And since they guy is dead, we will never know for sure, unless someone asks Oda in a SBS?
Ace was a cocky logia, he got defeated more times, it is not a shocker if it turns out he only had CoC.
-
@uniaka:

Whitebeard did display COA he was constantly attacking Akainu, also he managed to stop Kizaru from attacking Luffy without a doubt he showed he had it. Blackbeard did mention Haki a bunch of times before the timeskip I'm sure he's referring to Coc though.

Still doesn't translates as he had B haki or observation haki. Look what Crocodile did in the war, he was clashing with strong people and he didn't seem to have haki either.

We had many of examples of people using haki before the time skip but kage is talking about after the timeskip where defensive and offensive haki is shown as the area used going black.
Ace had kings haki we saw him use it as a kid and talking about luffy having it as well during the war when he was about to be executed plus Ace being a logia would know about haki since whitebeard used it on him to beat Ace being in a yonkou crew Ace would have had a basic level at least of all 3 types of haki he was a pirate for 3 years which is longer than luffy has been a pirate even after the time skip.

He went from sheathing his sword on the grassy part of the deck, to steering the ship and asking Nami if he should continue steering in the same direction now that they've found the island. That's a pretty clear indication that time passed.
I'm really back and forth on this now. I'm def taking what you're saying into consideration. I just keep staring at this page now. The conversation flows in a way that feels like it was all a few seconds. Brook could have sheathed his sword and walked over to the wheel in that time, but his line about steering DOES make it sound like maybe he had been steering for a while (like a change of clothes amount of time).
I guess I'm a little unclear about how actively people steer the Sunny while they're sailing. Is someone always at the helm? Like always? Sorry for sounding dumb.
Also, I honestly think Nami in armor would be a super funy gag, and if it is just a funny costume, I wish she was shown a bit clearer because I think its a joke a lot of readers might miss.

Anyway, if Bellamy and Smoker were able to learn it during the 2 years so should people like Crocodile, Lucci or JinbeiSounds like we agree here on the haki topic that it could have possibly been (and I wish I had thought of this word before) a retcon. I've got a lot of faith in Oda though. I think it really could have happened either way.

I want Pekoms to join Strawhats. I do not think that either Pedro or Carrot are any more of a candidate than Marguerite(that I adored) during Amazon Lily arc.
Just got past Amazon Lily on my re-read and I'm still sad that Marg didn't join. That said, I think Carrot would be the best candidate if a mink was going to join - since she is a real fighter class female character. I think a lot of people would appreciate that. The only one I, at the moment, really don't want is Pedro. Though I am in complete doubt that anyone but Jinbe will ever join the main crew again.

I wouldn't bet very high in the possibility of one of them becoming a mugiwara, but if we'll have a mink in the crew, then Carrot is my choice so far.

Unfortunately i also think that the chances of we having more new mugiwara isn't that high. Probably the new ones will be only allies/followers like Bartolomeo and the other guys from the Colisseum…

Glad we agree about Carrot! I'm honestly not that sad about the notion of only ten Straw-Hats. I mean, that's a lot to keep track of. The allies thing is pretty cool to me.
That said, I'd still love Carrot joining.

@Joy:
It's so fucking obvious that Pedro is affiliated with the Beast Pirates.
I like the notion of him wanting to steal the poneglyph being related to that, just for the sake of the pot stirring.
-

Well, it's a little unclear in One Piece, but in general, any time a ship is sailing, you'd want someone at the wheel - otherwise, the motion of the water could move the rudder or even just alter the course of the ship. Not as huge a deal in our world (though not entirely inconsequential), but on the Grand Line, I think it would need constant supervision, and that certainly seemed to be an issue when they first entered the Grand Line.

It's a way out of Jinbe losing a body part since one of the things looks like a head with a crown plus big mom pirates are known for attacking islands they control so either they destroy the kingdom or the kill the king and with kaido wants to go there to take the mermaid princess this makes more sense since then big mom and beast pirates can attack each other.
