How will Luffy awaken his DF? Luffy is still far from awakening as pointed out by Doflamingo and stated that it is almost sloppy and that is why his G4 has a time limit and not capable of using his power without exerting much stamina. In order to boost his power, awakening is needed for him to keep up with his enemies, especially the yonko.

How would his awakening could potentially work, we have to understand how paramecia awakening in particular might operate and we have some clues from Doflamingo but people don't really understand what Doflamingo was saying. People think that awakening is simply affecting the evironments, which is true but not the entire answer. Doffy said, awakening is not only affect the environments but also the body itself. Luffy is a brawler and affecting the environment might not really helps him. But if Luffy does awaken, the aspect of body control would be mainly Luffy's priority and affecting the environment would be the extension from his ability. How will Luffy awaken?

We don't really know what are the requirements to be able to awaken. It is vague as to how the impel down zoan guards be able to awaken and as well as how Doffy awaken too but I think there are some methods to awakening and Luffy need to learn this and probably with the help of someone. Luffy could not learn haki on his own and needed Rayleigh's help. So who could help Luffy with his awakening?

I think this person would be a member of Roger's crew. When we look at the story timeline, Luffy met Roger's member and there is a pattern. At the beginning of OP story, Luffy met Shanks which inspires Luffy to become a pirate. Next, Luffy met Crocus in grand line where Crocus talk about the existence of Raftel. Before entering New World, Luffy met Rayleigh. I think in next storyline, maybe in Wano Kingdom, there will be a new reveal of Roger's past member and that would be Scopper Gaban. We don't know what his exact placement in the crew but given his name, there is a slight hint what rank he could have been.

When we compare at Roger's top member crew, there is a similarities in the fact of their names are based on metal. We have Gold represents Gol D Roger because he is captain. Silver represents Silvers Rayleigh, second in command and Copper as Scopper Gaban, the third metal. He might be the next possible person in the storyline that Luffy will meet and I think that he is currently in Wano Kingdom. The idea of Scopper is in Wano supported by the cover page of chapter 631 http://mangaonlinehere.com/read-online/One-Piece---Digital-Colored-Comics-Vol-64-Ch-631-Gyoncorde-plaza. In this cover page, we can see Crocus meeting with a guy with Wano attire with a long hair, similar to Scopper. We didn't see his face but it seems like he is a good friend with Crocus which I assume he might be Scopper.

It would be very convenient if Scopper is in Wano because we know that Luffy need to be much stronger to fight Kaido. So if Scopper was there and can sort of help Luffy in someway, maybe in the field of awakening. Awakening is very important because Doffy hyped it so much and a stable ability alongside with haki. But how would Scopper teach Luffy? This should be done in a very short period of time because Kaido is very upset with Luffy right now and there is no way could Luffy go away and train for 2 years like the haki and Kaido is now hunting him and would not get out alive.

So, how will Luffy learn awakening in a short period of time? I think the solution has already shown to us. In Punk Hazard, there is a drug called NHC10 and this drug is important because capable of giving a huge boost and power. There are two main uses as done by Ceaser. Ceaser test this drug for gigantification experiment and for his giant chemical blob, SMILEY. There are three effects from this drug. It makes you very very big, extremely strong and agile. But the downside effect is that it doesn't allow you to over use it because over time you could end up dying. Another story of the use of this drug is Chopper's rumble ball (RB). The RB is like a version of mellowed down of NHC10 and we know that is probably NHC10 because Chopper had the knowledge from Kureha and this could be a huge sign that RB made from NHC10. The major indication of this is that in monster point, he grows tremondously after eating several RBs and also loses his control just like the other victims of NHC10. After using the monster point, he completely passes out and immobile for a period of time.

NHC10 seems like to have awakening effect because we see that Chopper monster point is very similar to the impel down guards were also awakened and we also see SMILEY grew bigger and gained a lot of power after consuming NHC10 and later died. So maybe if Luffy medicated with NHC10 by Scopper through his training, he maybe could learn awakening in a small period of time as a catalyst. This is very possible
because in the period timeskip, Chopper learns monster point slowly by the use of RBs. The same effect would apply to Luffy if he over use it and if Luffy could pull it off, this would justify him learning awakening quickly and definitely counters his current G4 weakness and could use G4 mode in a much longer period of time and maybe a new awakened G5 during fight with Kaido.

Thanks for reading this long blog.
