I'm reading some of the earlier discussions had in this thread, and they are a blast.

Fun stuff isn't it? lol

Probably been said somewhere before but I have been thinking about what Rayleigh said about Haoshoku and how if you don't master it then you will be a danger to your friends as well. He also said the better you master all three then more possibilities there are. Just thinking that if you want to be able to use Haoskoku and not hurt your friends then you also have to master Kenbunshoku Haki in order to recognize and differentiate in your mind who you want your Haoshoku to effect and who you don't want it to effect.

[...]what Rayleigh said about Haoshoku and how if you don't master it then you will be a danger to your friends as well.

Oda could use that in the story.
Somehow Luffy could injure a SH and so Luffy has a inner conflict about using such strong techniques.
In the end he will come to the result that he has to use it to protect his friends but to use it more reasponsible.
That leads towards him mastering the Colour of Observation.(when he hasn`t already after the timeskip)

I'm not fully convinced either way. A conqueror is both strong-willed and intimidating. However, bearing weapons doesn't show strong will, but it may be intimidating. Oda needs to show us the feelings that go along with these special abilities.

Then again Kiai is a yell before punching in Karate training. Okay, that cements Busoushoku as analogous to Kiai.

That "strong will" translation is a bit deceptive.

Well, We are still a bit in the dark about King's Disposition. We don't know it's full effects, only that it is born in a select few people, is used by pure strong willpower and that it can knock people out. I don't know if that's just it, so I think there might be a bit more with it.

And it would be an interesting piece for the story. Maybe at the end of an arc when fighting the final baddy(Maybe Fishman Island arc) and the SH's are tired out, and Luffy accidentally uses King's Disposition, and knocks out his weakened friends putting them in danger.

I'm pretty sure this will happen, luffy in a moment of confidence uses his haki and knocks out one of his nakama or someone they befriend in the worst possible time.

[Muah]

The only reason Oda had him mention the side effect of kings haki is either so Luffy won't use it for a while or so he can master it as soon as possible.

[Buccaneer]

Rayleigh's words were cryptic, but at this point I'm pretty doubtful. So far (covering my bases so I don't look like a jackass in the future) it has been about strength of will and not body. So I can't see it having more of an effect because someone is physically exhausted. The other crew members should be fine as long as they're as least as resolute as Buggy.

Then again Kiai is a yell before punching in Karate training.

Actually, it's during a move.

i dont see point in thread we already know what the haki does? i doubt it gets stronger in any way but Oda might pull a fast one and have luffy come up with a new haki

I wonder what would happen if a DF user was able to put on a full suit of armor haki, and they jumped in the ocean.

the suit will be too heavy for him so he will drown eventually!!

[AllSundayNicoRobin]

It would be cool though :D

you mean the drowning or the suit??????????

We haven't actually seen anyone just surround themselves with COA Haki. Every time it's been used for defense, the character did a blocking motion and used Haki to strengthen it.

[Retsudo]

I'm sure Kidd and/or Law will develop King's Haki.

What if he deflects the sea, so he won't fall in?
