Early progress in Haze Piece comes down to three things: getting a usable Devil Fruit, leveling efficiently, and unlocking Haki at the right moment so the Logia bosses ahead of you stop being walls. Rush those in the wrong order and you waste spins, money, and 2x EXP. Handle them in sequence, and the climb from level 1 to the thousands becomes a steady grind instead of a stall.
Quick answer: Spin for a Devil Fruit with strong AOE moves, grind without 2x EXP until level 175 before spending any of it, farm the Pearl Necklace from the Ace raid boss at the jungle, and unlock Buso Haki at Logue Town once you reach level 350 with $100,000.
Get your first Devil Fruit by spinning, not begging
The reliable way to get a fruit as a new player is to spin for one yourself. The game hands out codes generously, and those free spins are usually enough to land something decent without spending Robux. Asking other players for a fruit is the slow, unpopular route, so lean on the codes instead.
For grinding, the best beginner fruit is Phoenix. It carried one player all the way from level 100 to 3,000 back when that was the cap. You probably won’t roll it, so aim for any fruit with a strong area-of-effect move, ideally one that pulls enemies toward you. Multiple AOE moves let you clear packs without moving, which is exactly what you want while farming.
Tip: Don’t spend money or spins on impulse early on. Hold your cash until you’re a higher level, because that is when money actually matters for buying items and unlocking Haki.
Level up fast: 2x EXP timing and the Pearl Necklace
The single biggest leveling mistake is burning 2x EXP too early. Grind normally until you reach level 175, then pour all your 2x EXP in from that point. If you want an easier late game, hold back some of it for later instead of spending everything at once.
Early on, go for the Pearl Necklace. It drops from the Ace raid boss at the jungle and is a 100 percent drop, so if Ace spawns, fight your way to him. The necklace gives a 7.5 percent fruit damage boost on top of a sizable general damage increase, which speeds up every kill afterward.
Super bosses are the other priority. The Ice Admiral and the Smoke bosses each drop super boss spawn items at a 5 percent rate, which usually works out to roughly 10 to 20 kills solo and far fewer with a group. Knock these out early so you bank both the spawn items and the gems they hand over.
Note: If you plan to become a Gum main like much of the player base, save your gems. Gear 5 is extremely gem-hungry, costing 150 gems per ability across 7 abilities.
Buso and Observation Haki requirements and locations
Buso Haki is the one that matters first. It lets you damage Logia Devil Fruit users even after they transform, which is the only way to actually hurt bosses like the Ice Admiral. Pick it up at Logue Town from Old Man Silver, the Buso Trainer near the tallest building, as soon as you meet the cost. Observation Haki comes next and gives you guaranteed dodges that ignore how much damage an attack deals, plus the ability to see boss and player health and levels.
| Haki | Requirement | Location | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buso Level 1 | Level 350 + $100,000 | Logue Town (Old Man Silver, tallest building) | +5% Sword and Combat damage |
| Buso Level 2 | Level 1150 + $250,000 | Revolutionary Island | +7.5% Sword and Combat damage |
| Observation Level 1 | Level 600 + $150,000 | Marine Base Island | 3 dodges |
| Observation Level 2 | Level 1500 + $200,000 | Bubble Island (near Skull Island) | 5 dodges |
| Observation Level 3 | Level 2500 + $1,000,000 | Desert Island, Second Sea (clock tower) | 7 dodges |
To reach the Buso Level 2 trainer, start from Logue Town with Old Man Silver on your right and travel straight. Pass the island with giant trees on your left, then look for the island with large rock pillars. For Observation Level 3, you’ll need to be in Second Sea, the zone added by the Sea 2 Magnet update, and the trainer dances behind the clock tower on Desert Island.
You’ll know each unlock worked when the trainer accepts your payment and grants the Haki. The most common reason it won’t trigger is missing one half of the requirement, since you need both the level and the exact cash amount at the same time.
Conqueror’s Haki (Conquerors Spirit): the two ways to get it
Conqueror’s Haki, also called Conquerors Spirit, does not come from a trainer like Buso and Observation. There are only two ways to obtain it. You can roll the D-Clan race when spinning, which carries a 0.1 percent chance and is the only race that includes this Haki, or you can buy it directly for 2,499 Robux.
That leaves a simple choice. Pay for the fast route, or grind race spins and accept the long odds. If you’re set on Conqueror’s without spending, expect a lot of AFK time and luck before D-Clan lands.
Best early races: Demon and Celestial Dragon
For a starting race, Demon is the most well-rounded pick and isn’t hard to get, which makes it the safest choice while you learn the game. Most races are helpful in some way, so you don’t have to chase a perfect roll.
Celestial Dragon is also worth considering at this stage thanks to its 15 percent money boost on quests. That adds up once you’re running large quest counts. Grind 1,000 quests worth 10,000 each, and you’d normally have 10 million, but the boost pushes that to 11,500,000. It isn’t dramatic per quest, but over a long grind it pays off.
Get a workable AOE fruit, time your 2x EXP after level 175, secure the Pearl Necklace and a few super boss runs, then unlock Buso the moment you hit level 350 with cash in hand. Follow that order, and you’ll be ready for the Logia bosses gating your way deeper into the seas.
