Questions & Mysteries Is hardening visble?

[Albino 👑]

No one ever talks about hardening visible

Mihawk zoro

I don’t understand why y’all Stan a character but refuse to believe anything they say

• Zoro’s lying about being able to harden and blacken his sword
• Lying about not being able to cut iron or steel pre timeskip
• Lying about getting stronger through enma
• Lying about not being able to damage a flame on lunarian
• Lying about wanting to finish off Lucci quickly
• Etc

According to y’all man lies more than usopp but at least usopp’s lies eventually come true

Yes

armament haki is mentioned to be invisible

 

[Albino 👑]

Basic armament haki and its advanced applications are invisible

1. Basic = flow within yourself
2. Emissions = flow outside yourself
3. Internal = flow outside yourself and within something

Hardening which is visible can be applied to each level

1. Coat your body
2. Coat your weapon
3. Coat within your weapon

Based on Smoker's expression when seeing full body armament from Vergo, I guess it is visible.

What about Caesar's reaction in the manga panels I posted that @L57 still hasn't read

Caessr didnt react to hardening lol

CoA is invisible in the OP world. Hardening is also invisible. It is nothing but a visual cue for us readers to tell when CoA is actually being used

Black blade is the ONLY instance when hardening becomes visible but it is also a permanent feat

Oda is not consistent about drawing visible vs invisible CoA. Why the fuck do you guys give so much credit to a writer who doesn't even know how to properly differentiate ACoC in the first place?

hes looking at luffy's blacked up fists and reacting to them with his eyes bugging out.

Maybe he's just reacting to the barrage of Luffy's fists that are about to collide with his face

Mihawk explicitly tells Zoro that if he can use CoA on a sword it will become just like his BLACK blade

How much more direct can that even be lol?

No he didn't.

Mihawk: "Every sword can become a black blade like mine. No alcohol for you (Zoro) until you've mastered that feat".

Nope
It was about haki the drink thing not black blades
Zoro aint make one

Mihawk said black blade, why are you coping. Mihawk referred to Haki turning the blade (visibly) black, hence he said any blade can become one. It was figurative speech not referring to Zoro permanently turning his blade black.

You're conflating three different sentences that Mihawk said.

 

[comrade]

You're conflating three different sentences that Mihawk said.

It was all part of one statement, it weren't 3 arbitrary sentences unrelated to each other.

1. Had you imbued your sword with Haki, your swords would not have broken
2. You should treat any nick on your blade as a mark of shame
3. Every weapon can become a black blade like mine (context of this sentence?)
4. No alcohol until you've mastered that feat

If sentence 4 referred to 1 and 2, there would be no point in even mentioning his black blade. :D

 

[Rurushu]

No he didn't.

- Infused sword with haki
- Every weapon can be turned into a black blade like mine
- Mastered this feat

I don't know what kind of mental gymnastics you want to do here, but I'm not interested
