Not surprised but anyways yeah I am very interested to know how Luffy will Awaken. Hopefully turning an object into your DF is just one ability of it and theres much more to it than that.
I think there is no question we will see many variations of it, most likely all the strong Devil Fruit users from this point forward like the Yonko will have this awaken power.
This really delivers the sense on how far Luffy has to go before he is King of the Pirates, just when he masters Haki and gets a power upgrade that allows him to fight someone as strong as Doflamingo, it turns out there is still far more to learn.
I have to give the author credit, he handles the power levels and development well.
