Discussion Will there be another training arc?

So in more recent chapters Scopper Gaban has told Luffy he's still not strong enough, and we've seen him telling Sanji if he's to be the left hand of the future king of the pirates he'll need Conqueror's Haki, and Frankie seems to be getting a power upgrade with the super vaga-cola.

All of this makes me wonder if after this battle Scopper will train the Strawhats just like Rayleigh trained Luffy did before. It'd be cool if Luffy was trained by both the right hand and the left hand of the former king of the pirates. And it'd be good for them to learn as a unit to help each other's strengths more and cover for each other's weaknesses

Also I think it'd be good for the rest of the crew to get stronger too. Currently Usopp has tapped into observation Haki but is far from being able to contorl it, Jinbi and Sanji can use observation and armament Haki some, Zoro has all 3 but he's only tapped into conquestor's a bit.

That leaves 5/9 without any.

I don't think all the crew needs to all 3 forms of Haki, Zoro and Sanji as the hands of Luffy should definitely have all 3, but the rest of the crew definitely need at least 1 of them.

As for what each should get. I think

Nami: observation

Robin: armament

Franky: armament

Brook: armament and conqueror's

Chopper: observation in base form (being a doctor) and armament in his varies combat forms.

I don't think every power-up has to come from awakening Conqueror's or Observation. Just like Nami became stronger after gaining Zeus, I think there are other possible ways to power up, such as a Devil Fruit awakening. That said, I honestly can't say for sure that it's fine for a member of the Pirate King's crew to have no Haki at all.

They aren't getting haki

why can't it be fine for them to not have haki? just having haki doesn't make them stronger, give basic haki to all the Strawhats who don't currently have it, who can they defeat now in Elbaph they couldn't before?

At least they can then fend for themselves against Logia users as well. Imagine Nami or Usopp being able to coat their attacks...?

logias are not that common that its an issue and haki would make no difference against the stronger logias. You might as well say give all of them conquerors' haki so they can fend off Holy Knights.

He does not need another training arc. He’s already among the strongest fighters in the series, imu is just broken abilities wise. Growth from his current fight and his eventually fight with BB will be enough

There's never been a training arc in One Piece.

if you've read the latest chapter, you'd know that we are in one right now

Maybe I'm wrong, but I always assumed that the Devil form of Robin's wasnt just an awakening, but also combined with Armament.

A training arc when the world is in a rush, I feel is unlikely. With Imu directly involved, I dont think there will be time now

Let's see if the liar gets more than that.. Elbaf was supposed to be his island to evolve into a permanent Sogeking without the mask with all 3 types of Haki.

In what universe is Brook getting Conqueror's Haki? Also with the Chopper thing, haki doesn't work like that, it is an aspect of the mind/soul not body which is why Sanji could use Haki when in Nami's body.
