Naturally, fans are waiting for the Monster Trio to get in on the action as well, and fans of Sanji are desperately waiting to see more of him. While he hasn't done much fighting so far, Oda has actually Already revealed some very exciting bits and pieces about his future powers through the left arm of the Pirate King, Scopper Gaban, in Elbaf. Now, fans know for a fact that Sanji will eventually get a very special power, and this power is Conqueror's Haki.

  • Chapter 1149 Confirmed Gaban's Conqueror's Haki

One Piece chapter 1149 was absolutely massive for Scopper Gaban and also for fans of Sanji. This is simply down to the fact that Scopper Gaban, the left-hand of the Pirate King, was shown to be a user of Conqueror's Haki. To be fair, Gaban had already used Conqueror's Haki during his fight against Luffy. However, some fans were in denial of the fact that the left arm of the Pirate King could have such an ability.

Now, in One Piece chapter 1149, Oda has once again highlighted Gaban's Conqueror's Haki. This time, however, Oda made it clear that there is no room for confusion. Clearly, the attacks used by Gaban to beat Sommers were all infused with Conqueror's Haki. Using this power, Gaban was able to injure the Holy Knights more than anything they could've imagined, and Gaban continued to press forward towards Colon.

Gaban's Conqueror's Haki Usage

In One Piece chapter 1149, fans get to see Gaban fight Sommers and use his techniques to cut through his weapons and strike him down. Gaban then rushed towards Gunko, and in an attempt to kill her in a single shot, he tried to charge up his ax with Conqueror's Haki. Unfortunately, Gaban didn't strike Gunko since Colon was a hostage, which meant that he had to surrender and eventually be thrown off the tree.

Gaban Also Has Future Sight Observation Haki

If these powers weren't enough, the fans also need to keep in mind that Gaban has access to Future Sight Observation Haki as well. This type of Haki is incredibly rare and can only be used by a handful of top tiers in One Piece. When used by Gaban, it allowed him to see Colon being killed in the future, making him realize that his effort was futile and the best outcome would be to surrender.

With Scopper Gaban being a parallel to Sanji, it is now basically confirmed that he will get Conqueror's Haki eventually to use in the battle against the World Government and whoever else stands in their way. Sanji awakening Conqueror's Haki always made sense and now, it's all confirmed. At the same time, fans should also keep in mind that just like Gaban, Sanji has very good Observation Haki.
