What do you mean half haki and half swordsmanship lol.
They go hand in hand.
It mean that I can have Joy Boy's haki, but if I can't use a sword (very well), I cannot ever unleash a flying slash for example.
Something Mihawk said.
Swordsmanship and techinques are a fundamental part of an "attack".
Idk, Luffy trying to do a Daisen Sekai would have the same results as Luffy using a mace.
Your Haki needs to be stronger than mine to cut me. And apparently Pica is the only one we have seen Full bodied in Armanent apart from Vergo.
I was mostly talking about Zoro cutting the giant Pica, but ok.
Even though, as said, techinque has a great role as Mihawk said, even though I think Zoro's haki was stronger anyway.
Remove WCI and you won't find any of the luffy Haki feats either apart from dressrosa like Zoro.
Rest were haki only used , not flexed that could be taken into consideration for feat.
DR too had some haki showings for Luffy. Obv. not that incredible.
He cN for sure.
But that's not how you beat him.
Point is that I don't see why Sanji shouldn't be at least at DR's Zoro level of haki.
Oda has probably various major fights to build up his haki journey, as for Zoro in Wano, until he unlocks CoC.
Not to mention, we are excluding CoO showings, so the phrase I was replaying to in the first place was wrong anyway.
Zoro needed an arc to unlock AdvCoC starting basically from what he did in DR, something that present Sanji should be able to do It.
Sanji has multiple arcs to do the same now, so no problems.
