One Piece's protagonist, Luffy has conquered every single foe that he has faced. In each of those encounters, he has surpassed all expectations. This is possible because of his unbreakable willpower, which makes him a nightmare to fight against. For every blow he takes, he returns tenfold damage to his enemy. It is no secret that Luffy is a genius when it comes to fighting, as his battle IQ is off the charts.

His ability to learn anything and everything is similar to a Saiyan, who are known for their adaptability. The same can be said for Luffy's crew, who have fought against some of the elite enemies, like the Beast Pirates. The battle between them was a sight to behold. The Straw Hats made quick work of their enemies, finishing the job with aplomb. During the Elbaf arc, new threats were unveiled; their power knows no bounds. This raises the question: what will the Straw Hats do against these threats? The answer is that they will get new powers of which will boost their fighting prowess so much so that they will be able to tackle these enemies. Here are some of the powers that the beloved Straw Hat Pirates might get in Elbaf.

Luffy Gaining Full Control of His Devil Fruit And Haki

Luffy Will Improve His Haki In Elbaf

picture: gear 5 luffy in one piece.
  • Devil Fruit: Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika
  • Haki: Yes

Luffy, at this point in the story, has defeated the strongest creature in the world, Kaido. He used all of his newly acquired powers in that fight, which assured his victory against the unstoppable force of nature. It was a well-fought battle in which the odds were stacked against Luffy but ultimately the hero triumphed. In the Egghead arc, Luffy went toe-to-toe against Kizaru and annihilated Rob Lucci. Even with such insane feats, Luffy still has tremendous potential to grow.

The reason behind this is his Gear Fifth straining his body tremendously, and this can use some work. His Conqueror's Haki can still go beyond the upper limit, as shown by the powerful Haki of Joy Boy. Luffy needs to increase it to the same level as Joy Boy, as even the ruler of the world, Imu, got scared upon witnessing Joy Boy's Haki after such a long time.

Zoro Mastering Enma And Conqueror's Haki

Zoro's Conqueror's Haki Will Turn The Table

Zoro declares himself as the King of Hell - One Piece
  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

In Wano, Zoro achieved a great feat that only Luffy managed, and that is to actually penetrate Kaido's impregnable defence. He was able to accomplish this because of Enma and his Conqueror's Haki. This victory was short-lived lived as that was the only damage that Zoro was able to do to Kaido.

But this paved the way for him to learn something new which will improve his potential even more. In Elbaf, Zoro will completely master his Conqueror's Haki and Enma at the same time. This will make him one of the few people who can master the advanced form of Conqueror's Haki.

Sanji Might Get Advanced Observation and Conqueror's Haki

Haki Is The Only Logical Option

Sanji destroys his Raid Suit - One Piece
  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

Sanji, in Wano, had one of the most impressive and surprising reveals. It gave Sanji a much-deserved power-up during his fight against Queen. This power was his awakened genetic enhancements which allowed him to defeat Queen with relative ease. It is a very debatable topic as the full power of his genes is still unknown. His Observation haki didn't get any significant improvement.

With where the story is heading, Sanji has to have advanced Observation Haki. Against the threats that have been introduced, without a doubt, he needs advanced Haki to survive. At one point in the story, he was the best Observation Haki user in the Strawhat Pirates, so, logically, he will get advanced Observation Haki, and even Conqueror's Haki, given that this is the only way to hurt the Holy Knights.

Jinbe Could Awaken Advanced Armament Haki

Armament Haki To Make Him More Destructive

Jinbe attacks Who's-Who with Fish-Man Karate.
  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

Jinbe is a certified beast who has enough power to go toe-to-toe against the likes of Ace, who was a renowned pirate. His strength was enough to grant him a position in the Seven Warlords of the Seas.

Sanji stops Doflamingo
One Piece: 7 Pirates Who Were Born Rich

These One Piece pirates were born into privilege, and typically have non-monetary motives.

He possesses two basic forms of Haki with which he was able to defeat, Who's Who, a prominent member of the Beast Pirates. But there is a lot that Jinbe can improve upon, which is his Haki, specifically his Armament Haki. Him been a close-range fighter who prioritizes destructive power more than anything will definitely get it in Elbaf.

Nami Will Get A Devil Fruit

Weather Controlling Devil Fruit Is In Order

Nami and her Sorcery Clima Tact - One Piece
  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: No

Nami was arguably one of the weakest members of the crew because of her lack of powers. This was fixed when she came to possess Zeus. It amplified her powers by a very big margin. There is a possibility she will get another power-up.

It could be something that will help her to control the weather more efficiently. Furthermore, she might get a Devil Fruit that will complement her power, such as controlling clouds, or wind at will.

Brook's Devil Fruit Awakening

Devil Fruit's True Potential Is Still Unknown

  • Devil Fruit: Yes
  • Haki: No

Brook is a very impressive swordsman who has a very unique fighting style. He uses his Devil Fruit ability to freeze his sword. It deals great damage to foes with insane speed and power. All that was due to his Devil Fruit, and it helped him reach a high level.

If his Devil Fruit gets awakened, his swordplay will get even stronger. He will be able to have more techniques to choose from. His Devil Fruit will also be more effective in combat situations.

Chopper Could Get New Form

New Form That Will Be Helpful In Battle

One Piece Tony Tony Chopper Suit
Tony Tony Chopper One Piece
  • Devil Fruit: Yes
  • Haki: No

Chopper, in Wano, didn't have a proper fight. He saw for himself what level his enemies were reaching. Chopper has a very wide variety of forms of his Devil Fruit, but that won't simply cut it.

Luffy is the main character of the One Piece story, and throughout the series he has had many amazing moments, so let's break down the best!

2

His forms are strong, but they aren't strong enough to handle elite enemies, which is why he needs to have a new form that can help him achieve success in battle. Many things have already been seen in Elbaf but Chopper's power-up is one yet to be seen.

Nico Robin Mastering Haki

Elbaf Will Be The Place To Master It

Robin from Onee Piece
Nico Robin
  • Devil Fruit: Yes
  • Haki: No

Robin fought Black Maria in Wano. The fight proved that she had improved her battle capabilities as well as her IQ. She has become more reliable, as evident by her rescue of Sanji. She did so with her new ability, Demonio Fleur, but it was a Devil Fruit ability with no Haki. After that, there are only two things she can get: either Devil Fruit awakening, or Haki, which is the most logical thing to happen.

Usopp Mastering Observation Haki

Sniper That Can Hit Any Target

One Piece - Confident Usopp
  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: No

Usopp is the weakest member of the Strawhat Pirates at this point in the story. He is a tactical genius, without a doubt, but that won't get him far in a fight, as he can't do much damage to enemies. The only power-up that he got since the timeskip was basic Observation Haki and that was back in Dressrosa.

Now is a good time for Usopp to get a new power-up, and it could be advanced Observation Haki. His father, Yassop, is a master of Observation Haki, so it is only natural that his son will gain mastery of it as well.

Franky's New Augmentation

Vegapunk Will Make Him A New Weapon

Franky Design Change
  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: No

Franky won against one of the members of Tobiroppo, Sasaki, but he sustained a lot of damage in that fight. This shows he needs something to aid him in future battles. His opponents are becoming more powerful and terrifying, and to counter them, he could get new weapons with the help of Vegapunk, who is in Elbaf.

Vegapuunk is a genius who can create various weapons. Furthermore, he can also upgrade Franky's existing weapons. There are tons of ways in which Vegapunk can enhance Franky's fighting prowess, such as inventing something that can surpass the BF-38.
