Hyogoro Will Teach Luffy The Touchless Internal-Destruction Haki

Status: pending · Technique: chekhov-explicit

The seed

The payoff

(Pending — Luffy’s mastery of the touchless internal-destruction Haki and its use against Kaido resolve forward of this window. Kept pending.)

Earliest known caller

(Unrecorded.)

Why this matters

A chekhov-explicit seed: the hero names the exact technique he needs against the arc’s final boss, and a mentor demonstrates it and agrees to teach it — all in one chapter — so the eventual payoff reads as earned training rather than a power-up from nowhere.
