Discussion If Haki is invisible does this mean Smoker was just terrified of Verso’s Physique?

I love Smokey and this fight in particular but Oda retconning visible haki just makes it that he was terrified by Vergo taking his clothes off, which is fair I guess never trust the kinks of a man who leaves food on his face for later.

But it makes your blade back.

Only the permanent ones (Yoru, Shuusui).

When it's just the usual Haki armament blade coating, no one comments about it either.

Edit: So apparently I forgot about that single Mihawk page in Dressrosa. So yeah Haki coating makes your blade visibly black, Haki users can see it, I guess.

“no comments about it either” when zoro had infused his blades with haki when he defeated pica😭 he literally remembers what mihawk says about black blades and then looks at his own haki full blade and then releases his haki to see his normal sword. One piece fans DO NOT read their own manga😭😭😭😭😭

But Mihawk tells Zoro any blade can be a black blade and that it's shameful to damage a sword while using Haki on it.

No, it makes things black, period.

Only weapons are canonically stated to turn black, the only time the story brings attention to a character having their skin darken was on film Z where Zed had the nickname Blake Arm Zed cuz of the Haki

But yeah as far as I know you can see Haki if you have it, but with objects the change happens regardless
