Powers & Abilities Yamato used advanced COA?

#42
Issue here is with all those examples, the person is in close range. As even the panel with the demonstration shows, the haki is only extended a few centimeters from the user's hand.
However, in Yamato's case, it is a long range attack completely extended from her weapon.
possible since yamato is using a weapon here
same way swords can send attacks from a distance plays a part here .
but I think thats what it is.

Not entirely sure tbh. It could've been due to "huge" sudden burst of power.
While the shape is different,the same happened with Luffy's second strike to Katakuri

In Yamato's case ,there is this mark,which signify's the speed of her release and then the"barrier" is the outburst.


In a smaler scale there is also this from Nami.
Notice behind the impact mark there is the same "barrier" drawing in front of the clima tact.

Due to Oda focusing on CoA in this arc,it might be barrier,but for now I don't bet on it being "advanced" haki.

Yeah but it wouldn't necessarily be a barrier. I think that represents haki impact on something or someone so it won't be only barrier. The whole point of barrier haki is being able to release your haki to a few centimeters beyond your palms to defend yourself or to attack.

In Yamato's case, she shoots the haki from her club which is something we have only seen with Roger and WB clash and Enma's ability
Haki is the only logical option because there are no visible shockwaves .

Good thread.

There's also the case of Yamato blocking an Elephant Gun point blank with no issues. Perhaps it was bcoz of her barrier Haki?

Btw, if Yamato has Ryuo, I definitely bet on Kaido having Ryuo too.
Yeah that one was definitely a barrier.

I think so too. There's nothing preventing him from having it. That is why I disagree with those who claim just because Luffy has found a way to bypass Kaido's outer shell = Luffy being able to fight him toe to toe.

I would assume that with Kaido's history, he should've faced at least one person capable of using such an ability

So shockwaves = slashes no shockwaves = ryou ?

Well itd be a bit off if kaido had ryou considering luffy trained for his scales.

Yeah I'mma just call it a shockwave. Until further notice she hit the air so hard it became a projectile, just as swordsmen create flying slashes or Elizabello's King Punch.

I'm sure Yamato does possess Ryuo but we've seen flying attacks with no surrounding effects before such as Mihawk cutting the iceberg. I don't wanna have to start calling everything Haki unless I have to.

Don't get me wrong it could've been amplified by CoA but I think what actually hit the dude was a shockwave. There's even an effect of her hitting the air during her swing.

What if is just a flying blunt attack similar to swordsmen flying slashes?
It was never said it can't be done with a blunt weapon right?
Dorrys and Brogys axe and sword were said to be blunt.

I took another look at the panels and I would say its an airslash. or more a blast wave, really.
not sure if this requires haki or not.

enduring the explasion was more likely because shes Kaidos daughter.

It seems like Oda made another power inflation.

Everyone seem to have Ryuo because of applying Haki onto their weapons. Hence characters like Vergo or Smoker should be able to use Ryuo/barrier Haki as well.

Btw, it wouldn't wonder me if Doflamingo and Katakuri have Ryuo, too. They both are able to apply Haki onto their awakening - indication of flowing their Haki outta their body to apply it on objects which were turned into their respective elements.

No, imo using haki on to the fruit power isnt ryou.
Kata didnt have it as he couldnt clad his mogura.
