We joke about the Power of Friendship™, but the series is chock-full of examples of people helping Luffy and Luffy helping people in turn, and this unnatural charisma being the literal superpower that will lead him to achieve his dreams.

Observation Haki foreshadowing. I remember this moment causing a lot of confusion, and then Oda pulled the power move of not explaining how it works until Whole Cake Island.

Or, perhaps, Buggy's haki outdoes Mihawks, as befitting the future Pirate King.

Unfortunately for Buggy, Mihawk doesn't care much for his balls

I don't care what the power scalers say, Mihawk cutting and iceberg in half without even trying is awesome

It's quite telling that showing the world the truth is what would lose their trust

Imagine how humiliating this is for Jozu, listening to these goobers bicker while he's stuck mid-punch

Tattoo alert for the rando in the back, and I like how Mihawk is so skilled we don't even need to see him swing his sword for him to hurt Luffy
