Btw on Gaban's application of CoC this chapter.
Seems like he was able to imbude his CoC with the will to cut and direct it at Imu which seemed to bypass his Maki barrier.
In the same vein, Shanks was able to use a similar application on Greenbull to subdue him from long range.
So maybe the next phase of CoC is being able to manifest your will via CoC in tangible form?

In Gaban case, he wanted it to harm Imu so it went destructive. In Shanks case, he just wanted to warn/twitch and talk to Greenbull it did that. They could talk from miles away.
When Shanks went to meet WB, he wanted to pose threat and use his haki to destroy parts of the ship. I feel the application of this Haki could be more as per will of the person.

Given how out of the blue oda made Shanks attached to gaban recently we gonna see some trtrulyeinous shit with him against BB i think if there is a next level
