Chapter : Haki Scaling
Hey guys! I'll be talking a little about haki levels
Since many people don't understand this system of power, well I don't understand it 100% myself but I think I know enough to do that
There are some levels of Haki here, I was inspired by fanons/reddit/videos and myself, so don't take what I write here as universal truth
Also, if you don't agree with anything here, feel free to discuss it with me.
With all that said, let's get started!
First let's talk about what Haki is
Haki or ambition, determination or spirit is a kind of power that mixes the concepts of body, soul and mind for attack/defense, perception/reaction and domination. It is divided into three groups:
Kenbunshoku no Haki (Observation Haki): is the form of Haki that gives the user a kind of sixth sense. By training their senses, the user can see the soul and intention of others. Because of this fact, I fit him into Haki's corporeal medium
Busōshoku no Haki (Armament Haki): it is the form of Haki that allows the user to manipulate their own "soul" outside the body, thus creating an "invisible armor" for defensive and offensive feats, it is also the Haki that allows normal people hit Logia users by hitting their "souls". I fit this Haki in the spiritual aspect
Haōshoku no Haki (King's Haki): This Haki allows the user to use their own will to subdue the will of others, usually causing them to faint. And this one I fit into, on the mental side of Haki
Having talked about the basics of Hakis, now I'm going to talk a little about the intermediate and advanced versions (but not everything so as not to lose the fun):
Kenbunshoku no Haki:
Detection of emotions: by having a great affinity with Kenbunshoku no Haki, the user is able to "read" their opponent so well, that they begin to identify what their emotions are, thus achieving a much more accurate reading and almost predicting the future
Vision of the future: being able to read both the opponent's intentions and emotions, the user can read his opponent so accurately that he literally sees the future
Empty body: this technique is based on the concept of applying Kenbunshoku no Haki, as if it were Busōshoku no Haki. In other words, using Kenbunshoku no Haki on the user's own body to make it "move on its own" by making the body act through pure reaction and muscle memory.
Busōshoku no Haki:
Total Coating: simply put, this version is made when the user covers both the outside and the inside of their body, thus making a much stronger defense and attack
Ryuo: is the act of transferring your Busōshoku no Haki outside your body, thus being able to attack your opponent without having to touch them. Furthermore, Ryuo has an improved version which is Internal Destruction, which is based on sending Busōshoku no Haki into an object or being to cause internal damage.
Symbiosis: this type of Busōshoku no Haki is more common in Devil Fruit users (because in my fic, Devil Fruit users nullify their own abilities with haki), this technique allows the Devil Fruit user to be able to use their powers together to haki. An important point to highlight is that Zoans find it easier to learn this technique and Logias have more difficulty
Haōshoku no Haki:
Voice of the King: by controlling his Haōshoku no Haki, the user can influence the people around him to do his bidding
King's Coat: this technique is used along with other types of Haki to increase their powers, or even to create other Haki techniques
King's Army: using Haōshoku no Haki on one's own allies to clear and encourage their minds, thus leaving them in the best mental capacity for the fight
These are the Haki techniques that I will reveal for now, but fear not, in the future I promise to reveal the rest
