Eiichiro Oda introduced Haki inOne Pieceas a mysterious power that allows one to harness their own spiritual energy to achieve various results. While it was a fascinating concept in the beginning, as the story progressed, the Haki system became more and more confusing.

With the animation debut of Koby’s Honesty Impact in episode 1122 ofOne Piece, fans have more queries than answers, and all eyes are on Oda. Only a proper explanation in the next episodes will cure fans of their bamboozlement.
Koby’s Honesty Impact ConfusesOne PieceFans Over His Haki
In episode 1122 ofOne Piece,Koby uses his Honesty Impactin which he imbues his fist with Armament Haki and delivers a powerful punch. This punch is so deadly that shockwaves project from it. However, when Koby used this move, black and red flashes of lightning formed around his fist.
One Piece Theory: Aokiji’s Grand Plan of Betraying Blackbeard Started With Sparing Koby
Traditionally, black and red tendrils were assigned to the usage of Conqueror’s Haki inOne Piece. However, Koby does not possess Conqueror’s Haki, and it has been stated that he can only use Armament and Observation Haki. So how did his Honesty Impact have effects similar to those of the rarest form of Haki?
Either the red and black tendrils are shown just to expose how extremely powerful the punch is, orOne Pieceis completely mixing up all the Hakis. Given Eiichiro Oda’s eye for detail, mixing up Haki isn’t a popular option. So, is it just an animation mixup? Or is it a hint towardsKoby’s future awakening?

One PieceAnime Mixes up the Haki System Even More
Eiichiro Oda is used to cramming a lot of details in theOne Piecemanga. Given that it is just black and white drawings with a lot of information, fans often look forward to the anime for further clarity of things. But what if it is the anime that makes you more bamboozled than you were before?
TheOne Pieceanime has always been the best at clearing up battles and the usage of different abilities. It is almost like how you’re able to only know the difference between different transformations of Goku if you see colorized or animated versions of them. The perplexity first began during the Wano arc with the introduction of Aura. Thedifferent colors of the Haki and Auras and what they denote gave fans whiplash during the Zoro Vs. Killer battle.

Koby May Have a Better Story than Anyone in One Piece After Eiichiro Oda’s Latest Remarks
More and more fans can be seen comparing theOne Pieceanime toDragon Balldue to all the different colors involved and the difficulty of remembering what they mean. But after assigning the red lightning to Advanced Conqueror’s Haki, the anime again used it for Koby’s Honesty Impact, and fans have been seeking clarity ever since.
TheOne Piecemanga is available to read on Viz Media, and the anime is currently streaming on Crunchyroll.
