Powers & Abilities “Haki Blooming” was one of, if not the biggest asspull of the series
- Thread starter Lion of Olympus
- Start date
You guys seriously need to think about these things subjectively.
Every time Luffy has had a Haki Bloom it's been when he has faced someone well beyond his ability to handle or been in a near death situation.
When he faced Katakuri he acquired FS based on information he had been given by Rayleigh regarding people who can see into the future. So the knowledge was already there. He just had to apply what he had learned from Rayleigh.
Then there was the time where he got Internal destruction by learning advanced armament from Hyogoro. They were both about to die. Even then he didn't immediately get it. But he knew about it from watching Rayleigh.
Advanced Conqueror's haki is applied exactly the same way as Ryou. Luffy already had Conqueror's so he already had all the tools he needed to use it against Kaido. What he lacked was the knowledge.
Alot of people hate on Rayleigh cuz he never told Luffy how to do the advanced forms but he had already given him a ton of hints on where he could start.
None of these situations could be applied to Zoro or Sanji after the timeskip because neither of them were pushed to that extent. Nor do they have the knowledge necessary to pull it off.

Luffy: Fought opponents stronger than him (Doffy, Cracker, Katakuri, Kaido one and one) and overcame them, hence was able to bloom his haki.
Zoro: fought fodders till Kaido
Sanji: gets neg diffed, barely fought anyone.
Law: Got his ass handed to him by Doffy, but now surpasses him and was fighting against Kaido and Big Mom on equal footing as other supernovas.
Kidd: Gets cocky and directly goes to attack Shanks (instead of training his haki or slowly levelling up) but gets neg diffed twice by Yonkos, was only able to wound one of the sweet commander (We all know it was not Kata or Cracker)

Thats why Oda should had emphasized the "figuring out" part from Luffy's effort and creativity instead of haki blooming. Luffy finding out water and blood to beat Croc was his effort, Luffy finding out G2-3 was his effort and creativity, so no prob in those powerup since they are earned. Oda always depicts Luffy as a master in learning combat tech and figuring things out, so thats what he should focus more in Luffy compared to other chars like Zoro-Sanji, instead of haki bloom. Well Luffy had more extreme fights than both tho but still
