The Conqueror’s Haki is one of the rarest abilities in the One Piece universe. As the name suggests, the user possesses a strong will, and they can exert their will over people with inferior will. It will intimidate them or make them unconscious. Eiichiro Oda gave the ability to only a handful of One Piece characters, including Monkey D. Luffy, Gol D. Roger, Whitebeard, Shanks, etc.

The Conqueror’s Haki is an ability that a person has from birth, and it is not something that can be unlocked through training. Apart from Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro has showcased the Color of the Supreme King. While most people are waiting for Sanji to unlock his dormant Conqueror’s Haki, Toei Animation might have teased the fans by giving a filler character the special ability.

Sanji Might Have To Wait Longer For Conqueror’s Haki

The One Piece fans are eagerly waiting for Sanji to get Conqueror’s Haki. They have been waiting for a long time for the Monster Trio to establish themselves as true monsters. But the fans might have to wait longer for it to happen. Toei Animation is enjoying the desperation of the Sanji fans and teasing them by providing the supreme ability to a random side character in One Piece. Naguri is an anime-only character who showcased his Conqueror’s Haki in front of Ace, Luffy, and Sabo.

He faced Gol D. Roger in his prime but suffered a crushing defeat. In episode 498, he saves Ace, Luffy, and Sabo from a bear. The bear would have attacked the trio, but he used his Conqueror’s Haki and stopped the bear. It was the same as Red-Haired Shanks when he saved Luffy from the sea monsters. Naguri appeared in a single episode but was strong enough to possess the ultimate Haki. The Sanji fans were shocked to see it.

One Piece has crossed 1110+ episodes, yet the Straw Hat chef has no signs of joining his captain and Roronoa Zoro in this regard. It is as if Toei Animation is having a merry good time teasing the Sanji fans by giving random characters Conqueror’s Haki. Several people commented on social media regarding the matter. While the Sanji fans were annoyed, the Zoro fans enjoyed every bit of the drama.

Naguri possessing the Conqueror’s Haki might come as a shock. At first glance, it does not appear to be a strong Haki since the bear was barely intimidated. But it has been officially confirmed that the former pirate captain does possess the strongest form of Haki. After watching the old man save the ASL Pirates, social media erupted with comments coming from left and right.

Toei might be having fun with the current scenario, but it might be crucial for Sanji to become a supreme king. With the Final War approaching, the Straw Hat Pirates need every bit of ammunition they can gather. They will be up against the strongest forces of the One Piece universe, and winning will smoothen their Laugh Tale journey.

One Piece is currently available to watch on Crunchyroll.
