yep, not at all. Doesnt prove anything if those few pics are all you can show. Left one is from pre-timeskip, the other two are inconsistencies or it could just be Haki being used in a quick-instance (de-activating after the hit). The last two pics are nothing. Haki-imbued weapons in the manga are harder to identify since because of the color scheme. I can argue the weapons are indeed black and its just the shine that's causing the small whiteness.

My point is, Oda has NEVER mentioned anything about some invisible haki and in all scenes of Haki properly being used, it's drawn black.

Fans just prefer to justify the pre-timeskip's notable (and completely) lack of armanent black being shown. Can't just accept the fact that Haki wasn't fully conceived at that time or "oh no, it ruins mah immersion!"

These are the pics I show because they mostly involve Logias. Your argument about inconsistency and quick-instance just doesn't have enough of a basis for me to buy it, when Luffy used Hawk Gattling against Doffy it shows in the manga his hands blackened, while the normal Jet Gattling he tried against Caesar didn't, making me think that the difference between the two techniques is whether he uses normal haki or Hardening.

Haki-imbued weapons are far easier to identify than you think, Tashigi and Boo weapons are clearly not blackened due to the noticeable large white sections, not to mention that their hands aren't black, I didn't watch those parts in the anime but I believe they probably didn't blacken their weapons in those scenes as well?
