107. Haki

"Are you hiding something from me?" Chopper asked in a very meek tone. After joining the crew and seeing the power levels of his crew mates he felt a little left out and was suffering from a low self esteem at the moment. And he could also feel that there was something that the Captain and his crew were hiding, but he was too shy to ask them.

Chopper was feeling a little left out in all of this.

"Sorry, Chopper. There is something but there are guests here on the ship as you have seen and one even was our enemy before. We can't trust them with secrets as of yet. As soon as the crew is safe from outsiders I promise you that I will tell you the strongly guarded secret of the Straw Hat Pirates. "

Chopper eyes shone as he heard that. All this time he was thinking it might be because he wasn't strong enough that this so-called secret wasn't being told to him. But now he realized that the reason was because of the guests.

"No.. No.. I am sorry for doubting you. I understand." Chopper again had a smile on his face. Ken smiled and just petted his head. No matter what Chopper was a cute reindeer and he couldn't help but have a liking for such cute animals.

The ship had started sailing again at full speed in order to anchor near Eramalu. And from there they would go towards Rainbase to take down Crocodile. After taking down, he would be brought to trial and hopefully this would stop the rebellion caused by Koza.

At least that was the plan. After hours of sailing, Luffy who had fallen asleep finally woke up. Ken already knew that this guy would be hungry after eating so he had flown away to bring in more meat. And as expected, when Luffy woke up the first thing he shouted was

"MEEEEEAAAAAAATTTT." (Nikuuuuuuuu...)

Sanji was already alerted for this and he had started cooking from long ago so there was already a pile waiting for him when Luffy woke up. It was there when the crew mates saw the most significant change of Luffy.

His eyes had changed. Though his eyes didn't execute any power, the sight alone was able to captivate everyone present.

"Luffy-san, where did you get those eyes?" Vivi couldn't help but ask. Like Vivi, Robin too was curious about what happened to their Captain.

"Huh? Eyes? Did something happen?" Luffy was confused as he had not seen himself in the mirror. Chopper ran and brought back a mirror for him to see himself. When Luffy saw himself he was a little taken aback but he could realize why this was the case.

The new character had changed his eyes, and in fact even though he wasn't able to tap into the actual powers of the eyes he could now feel that with his eyes he could see through many things. The ship, the people around, the sea, the wind. He could see through each of them and even could vaguely feel the things around.

Luffy had finally awakened his Observation haki!

"Ahh I don't know what happened. I got exhausted and I just slept." Luffy spoke the half truth and laughed out loud. His laughter seemed fake and anyone hearing that laugh could tell that there was something Luffy was hiding and so were Ace, Ken and Usopp for Vivi and Robin.

But they didn't mind. They could understand why it was like that. Meanwhile, Luffy was trying to understand his new powers. He could tell that he had changed after he got access to Observation Haki.

"Luffy, did you get access to Observation haki?" Ace came forward and asked.

"Haki? You mean the same thing which Ken used to speak of? I feel like it can predict nature."

Ken, who was listening to the conversation, threw a stone picked up from the garden at Luffy which he easily avoided. .

"Yes, he has awakened Observation Haki." Ken said with a smile. Finally, the last brother was able to awaken this.

"What is Observation Haki?" Sanji asked.

"Haki is the fundamental thing. If you want to stand at the top, you must have it and especially in the New World. Without it in the New World, you will die. There are three types of Haki.

Observation Haki - This allows a user to predict an opponent's moves. This also allows a person to gauge the number of people in a certain area. The more proficient you are, the better you will be able to predict. Some people are so efficient in this that they can see the future. Example, Usopp's father can easily see the future since he is the sniper of the Red haired Pirates." Ace said Ken had already given a rundown of their crew mates.

"Huh! My father? My father is so awesome?" Usopp was ecstatic hearing praise from Ken. Even with his current powers to the max wouldn't allow him to look into the future. If his father could do it, it meant he was in a league of his own.

"Shanks is a Yonko along with the likes of Whitebeard, Kaido and Big Mom. They are the rulers of the other half of the Grand Line. So of course they are powerful." Now Ken started explaining the next Haki.

"The next is Armament Haki.." With those words. Ken showed his hands which had turned black. This surprised everyone.

"Ken, you finally learnt this?" Ace asked as he remembered his brother once complained about it when they were children. At that time he didn't understand but later he did when he came to the New World.

"Yeah. This Haki allows the user to hurt Logia users. Yes, you heard it right. One can hurt a logia or any kind of Devil fruit user with this Haki. But this is just the start. With this Haki you can not only hurt your opponents but with high proficiency you can destroy the enemy's inside with this Haki alone."
