Observation Haki, also called Instinct or Kenbunshoku, is an ability that allows you to dodge attacks easily and sense enemy presence in Vox Seas. Moreover, after you upgrade the skill, you can also see the HP and Stamina bars of the enemies that aren’t otherwise visible. This guide will walk you through everything you have to do to get Observation Haki in Vox Seas.
How to Unlock Vox Seas Observation Haki
You can get Observation Haki in Vox Seas by talking to the Instinct Teacher, who is located on Skypie Upper. Once you reach the gates of Skypie Upper, head straight until you see a giant, golden wall and bell. The Instinct Teacher is standing behind the wall. Talk to him, and he will teach you Observation Haki for just $150,000.
Once you have learned Observation Haki, press E to use it and dodge attacks, which will reward you with EXP. As you master the basic observation, you’ll unlock upgrades of the Instinct Haki that will allow you to see enemies through walls, make their HP and Stamina visible, and increase your Haki range.
For every upgrade, you will have to go back and talk to the Instinct Teacher again. Here’s how much every Observation Haki upgrade will cost in Vox Seas:
- Upgrade 1 - $200,000
- Upgrade 2 - $250,000
- Upgrade 3 - $300,000
- Upgrade 4 - 1,000 Fragments
- Upgrade 5 - 2,000 Fragments
- Upgrade 6 - 3,500 Fragments
Location of Skypie Island in Vox Seas

The Skypie Island is based on Skypiea, the sky island from One Piece, and has two separate areas for you to explore. Skypie Down is the main entrance area with mid-game content. Skypie Upper is the secondary area, full of late-game content, accessed by climbing up the clouds.
To get to the Skypie Island, buy a ship from Foosha Village and take a slight left. Three giant clouds shaped like the head of a trident will appear on your horizon. Head straight for those clouds and pass one island until you see the Skypie Island silhouette start to emerge.
