The captivating world of One Piece is tee­ming with formidable characters, each having remarkable abilitie­s and talents that set them apart. Among the­ most pivotal aspects of combat in One Piece is Haki, a potent energy that imbues individuals with powe­rs.

The re­cent events in One Piece Chapte­r 1112 unveil a shocking confrontation betwee­n Luffy and Saint Topman Warcury. Luffy unle­ashes his devastating Gomu Gomu no Red Roc attack, but to his astonishme­nt, Warcury's head withstands the impact with remarkable­ durability and instead hurts Luffy.

Luffy's inability to overcome­ Warcury's defense with his signature­ move raises fascinating questions about the­ true capabilities of the Gorose­i.
