This article contains spoilers for the One Piece series.
Known to be one of the two main power systems in the One PieceHaki is a spiritual energy that has a variety of uses One Pieceeverything from increasing mind perception to increasing offensive and defensive abilities and even overwhelming the enemy in a select few cases.
While Haki is incredibly important in One Piecemany characters have made it to the Final Saga without it. That said, Haki is still an important power to have, and Elbaf may mark the point where many new characters unlock it, especially among the Straw Hat Pirates. The likes of Robin and Franky could be the next to get Haki.
Robin
Haki to Unlock: Arm Haki
Aside from Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and Jinbe, you could definitely say Nico Robin is one of the strongest members of the Straw Hat Pirates. Robin has proven how strong she is by defeating Black Maria without any Haki. She has once again shown tremendous bravery by taking on Saint Sommer in Elbaf.
Robin's potential is one of the greatest in battle, and unlocking Haki can take her to levels like Jinbe. Robin, having awakened Haki, and potentially an awakened Devil Fruit would be unstoppable.
Stream
Haki to Unlock: Arm Haki
Stream isn't the strongest Straw Hat pirate out there, but he's shown time and time again how useful he can be, both in and out of battle. Brook didn't get his own battle in Wano, but he assisted Robin a lot. If Brook gains Armament Hakihe can be useful against many more enemies going forward and maybe even start getting his own fights.
Frankie
Haki to Unlock: Arm Haki
Frankie has proven over the past few arcs that, aside from the main four combatants, he is one of the best fighters the Straw Hat Pirates have to offer. Franky was able to defeat Sasaki in Wano, and in Egghead he beat a vice admiral with one punch. He may have bigger enemies to face soon. Franky really needs Armament Haki to be able to keep pace with the enemies ahead.
Urouge
Haki to unlock: Armament Haki, Observation Haki
Known as the Mad Monk, Urouge is one of the members of the Worst Generation, and the only one that fans have yet to see fully involved in the story. Urouge's current whereabouts are unknown, and the last thing fans know is that he defeated Snack, a cute commander of the Big Mom Pirates. It is unknown if he already has Haki or not, but if he doesn't he would definitely be a strong contender to unlock both Armament and Observation Haki in Final Saga.
Namie
Haki to unlock: Observation Haki
The cat burglar, Namie is the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates and one of their original members all the way from East Blue. Over the years, she has grown stronger, especially after the time jump, acquiring the likes of Zeus. That said, she's not at her peak yet.
While Armament Haki would be good for Nami, being a navigator is what would really propel her to the next level Observation Hakiand she can definitely unlock it soon.
Tony Tony Chopper
Haki to unlock: Armament Haki
Tony Tony Chopper is the Doctor of the Straw Hat Pirates, and while he can hold his own against some high-level enemies, he's arguably one of the weakest of the crew. Chopper still needs to get stronger and getting Haki would help him a lot.
Like many Straw Hat Pirates, he definitely needs Haki, even if it's only one type. Chopper was able to unlock Observation Haki, but what he really needs right now is Armament Haki.
Kozuki Momonosuke
Haki to unlock: Armament Haki, Observation Haki, Conqueror's Haki
The Shogun of Wano, Momonosuke was a central character during the Wano arc of One Piece. As the new ruler of the country, he has more responsibility than ever before. Momonosuke must grow stronger, as he cannot forever rely on others, such as the Straw Hat Pirates or Yamato, to protect him. Momonosuke will grow, and he will do so quickly. He certainly has the potential to unlock all types of Hakiincluding Conqueror's Haki. If Momonosuke unlocks Haki, he will be a great asset to the people of Wano and even Luffy during the final battle.
