**Appearance**: Spiritual Ambition is a light blue bald humanoid like alien with holes on his head. He wears a black and red bodysuit. The Omnitrix is on belly.

**Powers and Abilities**:

**Haki**: It is a mysterious power that allows him to utilize his own spiritual energy for various purposes. It can be used to sense people's spiritual energy and predict their actions, give him a protective coating of spiritual energy, and, for a certain group of "chosen ones", overpower the willpower of others. All living beings in the world are capable of learning Haki; however, most people do not notice it or fail to awaken it. However, Hakians are the original creators of Haki and can use it with ease.

**Kenbunshoku Haki**: The most common usage of this Haki allows him to sense the presence of others. He states that to fully master this ability would allow him to see others, even if they are concealed from view or too far to see naturally. This type of Haki allows him to see another person through the aura, be it behind buildings, strategically hidden, or camouflaged. Given this, Kenbunshoku Haki, depending on the level, can discover who is hidden, but still present. When viewed this way, he cannot actually see the person or animal with any physical characteristics, but rather recognizes the target(s) by their "aura", which is a mental image of a colored silhouette of them on a dark background, as demonstrated when sniped Sugar, or how the blind sees the world. In the unique circumstance of being swallowed by a larger creature and still being alive, he will only be able to sense the larger energy signature. This was best shown when Hilo failed to discern the presence of Spiritual Ambition inside the giant snake , only detecting him after he escaped, indicating that her 'voice' most likely enveloped their own when he used the ability. Similarly, Alma could not detect how the battle was progressing with her Mantra while inside the snake and only found out what happened after she and Spiritual Ambition escaped. This application of Haki allows him to measure the strength of the people whose presence they sense. This usage of Haki is useful in finding "powerful auras", something he displayed in Negav when he sensed Marko approaching him. Through Strength Sensing, he can easily locate powerful allies and avoid powerful enemies. This was first seen when Spiritual Ambition used this Haki to sense that there were 500 creatures on Isle who were stronger than Angel at that time. Another example is when he first met Vito, he could immediately sense that Vito was very strong. This variation of Kenbunshoku allows him to sense and empathize with the emotions and nature of others. For example, he used this Haki to sense the sufferings and emotions in the heart of a Fish-Man thief as well as hear the screams coming from Fisher Tiger's heart. Another example is that he was able to sense Angel's aggressive nature with this Haki. In addition, he sensed no trace of resentment from the citizens of Dressrosa, discovering that he was putting on a facade to help Team Hirko leave. However, this ability is not flawless. People with high control over their emotions and acting abilities can somewhat counter this technique. An example of this is Vulk, who were able to fool him. Another variant of Kenbunshoku Haki allows him to sense another person's intent to act in the immediate future (especially through bloodlust/killing intent within combat), allowing him to predict what someone is going to do, usually seconds prior, in what resembles a pseudo-form of precognition. However, it should not be confused with the actual, literal ability to see into the future which requires another level of skill entirely. Naturally, this predictive application of Haki is highly helpful in battle, depending on his level of proficiency, may have a vastly easier time predicting the path of enemy attacks to either dodge or counter them. The more killing intent exuded by a given enemy, the more predictable their attacks, although great enough Kenbunshoku experts can predict enemy moves whether there is murderous intent or not. Of course, since conscious intent has to be present for one to sense it with Haki, any actions are done unconsciously or with complete indiscrimination cannot be predicted. Spiritual Ambition, during his fight against Ether, was able to counter the latter's Kenbunshoku by delivering attacks in random, uncontrolled directions. Yet another way to counter predictive Kenbunshoku is by simply being so fast that, even if an enemy can predict one's attack, they cannot dodge in time. If trained enough, he can see a short period into the future. Instead of just sensing what would happen by intuition, he can literally see a precise mental image of what will happen in the immediate future. Contrary to basic Haki, there is no need to sense emotions or intention to use this technique. This advanced Haki ability has been proven to be an effective countermeasure against Busoshoku Haki for Devil Fruit users whose powers grant shapeshifting abilities, such as Logia's or Special Paramecia's. With Kenbunshoku Haki, he can foresee his opponents' attacks and quickly change the shape of their bodies to avoid contact. Future Vision does have its limitations; unlike basic Kenbunshoku, he needs to properly focus in order to use this ability. If he is not concentrating enough, he may be unable to see the future. Only another user of Kenbunshoku Haki with a proficient level or a distraction can counter this ability. In addition, he can only interpret the future through his own senses. he foresaw his daughter Pudding crying on the altar, but because he was too far away from her in his vision to hear what had happened, he had no way to know what was about to cause this. The future that he sees can be changed, which could result in an outcome that he failed to foresee. He was able to see jargon dodging another person's gunshot and tried to intervene, immediately by attacking jargon himself. However, he was unable to see the outcome of his own intervention of this event in time, resulting in jargon surprising him when he dodged his attack as well.

**Busoshoku Haki**: This type of Haki grants him augmentation of his body via his own spiritual energy, allowing him to access to a great increase of power and endurance. Because of this, this form of Haki is the most used in combat. This Haki is often referred to as an "invisible armor". The most basic ability of this Haki grants an enhancement of power and durability. It can be used in a single body part or in his whole body. This type of Haki also has the ability to bypass the powers of a Devil Fruit user whose body has been altered by their fruit in any way, such as Logia intangablity or body altering Paramecia, allowing him to hit the "substantial body" beneath whatever protection the fruit provides. By the same effect, this Haki can also be used for a higher level of offensive power, more so than just bypassing a foe's Devil Fruit powers. An evolved step of the Enhancement technique. A heavy concentration of this Haki can harden the body of Spiritual Ambition, granting him a greater increase of power and endurance that surpasses the mere Enhancement application. This technique is easily able to block an enemies' sword attacks and even cause said sword to break if his armament is strong enough. It was first seen used by Stretch Ambition, in combination with Gear Third, in order to use his "Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gun" against the Kraken. This technique is often used in conjunction with Imbuement. It is the most distinctive and recognizable Haki, as it turns his body shining black in color. In advanced applications, the skin-blackening effect of Hardening takes on a flame-like pattern and the shining color changes from the basic grey to a new one. Another evolved step of the Enhancement technique. By touching an object, he can imbue it with his own Haki to greatly increase its power and endurance. It is a great asset for weapon-based fighters, as it can be imbued into weapons; he utilized it on a sword,and on his Nanashaku Jitte, with the latter indicating Busoshoku Haki can be used in conjuncture with Seastone, and on his swords. Any weapon enhanced by Busoshoku Haki hits immensely harder than it would without it, as well as allow the weapon to take greater punishment without breaking. Imbued weapons can also harm Devil Fruit users that would not be harmed through conventional means. This ability is usually used in conjunction with Hardening, turning the objects black. The Kuja's Haki-imbued arrows are capable of penetrating solid stone. Swordsmen tend to imbue his blades with Busoshoku Haki to increase his cutting power and prevent them from chipping. It is possible for him to imbue Busoshoku onto an object without making physical contact, provided he has some kind of connection to the object, an example being substances and objects created and/or manipulated by Devil Fruit powers.He stated that a master swordsman who uses this Haki onto their blades would be able to cut through even the thickest steel if desired while having the precision to not cut through the thinnest paper thus making the sword a true extension of themselves. With this technique, he can project their Haki flow from his body without a medium. This method allows him to damage and/or repel his target without making direct contact or using brute force. According to him, in order to perform the Emission technique, he must transfer all Haki from across his body to his hands, channeling excess Haki from around his body through his fists, but he must let the Haki flow to it rather than forcing it. He cannot project the emitted Haki more than a few inches distance from himself. Whenever users of Emission Busoshoku Haki clash, the emitted Haki clash instead of making direct physical contact with one another, giving the impression that they do not touch at all. This Haki can be used in conjunction with the Hardening application. This Haki can also be combined with the Imbuement application, allowing him to emit the Haki from his weapons instead of from himself. A higher grade of the Emission technique. The emitted Haki flows inside a target and destroys it from the inside-out. Like Emission, Internal Destruction can also be used in conjunction with Hardening. This level has only been utilized Hakians, who initially used it unconsciously. Both used it to destroy collars that were designed to kill a person under certain circumstances. He later learned to use this ability intentionally, such as removing Sai's handcuffs.

**Haoshoku Haki**: This type of Haki grants him the ability to dominate the wills of others. Unlike the other types of Haki, Haoshoku cannot be learned. He can only learn to control it after discovering that he have it. Only one in several million people are born with this Haki. Those with stronger wills can resist or even ignore the effects of Haoshoku Haki. The ability to affect someone depends on the Haki user having greater strength of will than the person the Haki is being used against. The greater the power gap, the more easily the victim will succumb. According to him, while this type of Haki cannot be attained through training, it can be improved through strengthening the will of the user. It seems that upon recovery, victims of Haoshoku Haki experience the sensation of chills running through their bodies. However, it presumably wears off after a short period. Haoshoku Haki can be used to temporarily dominate the psyche of others, intimidating them to point where they are frozen with fear and/or forcing them to obey his commands for a short time. Depending on the will of the victim(s), they could even suffer a panic attack. This technique is very useful for taming wild animals. He is a great user of this ability, as he used it several times to tame extremely dangerous animals, such as a Mermaid, a Fighting Bull, and even the whole of the fauna on Rusukaina, while turning them into powerful allies.​​​ If the animals are tamed by a masterful user, they can even feel affection for their tamer. An ability that allows him to release his own will in the form of a strong burst, allowing them to incapacitate others. Instead of just intimidating or subjugating others, these bursts of Haki are so powerful, they render those with a weak will unconscious. Those with greater willpower will simply feel very uncomfortable and could stumble if they try to move. While inexperienced users are restricted to merely overpowering the will of one individual or blindly knocking out all weak-willed people around them, regardless of which side their on, those with more expertise can pick out weak-willed individuals in a large group and knock them out without affecting the others. Experienced users can also control the power of the burst. One of the main advantages of this form of Haki is that it can be used to knock weak-willed people out without physically harming them, such as when he used it to knock out the 10,000 soldiers. It also allows him to avoid having to fight with people weaker than himself by ending a fight before it starts. This form of Haki can also be used to reduce an enemy's manpower. This ability can still be used even when the user is unconscious, as shown when he managed to knock down a few Pirates after his fight with Kudo, despite being in an unresponsive state. He can use it to exert his will over objects, resulting in said objects breaking. This use of Haoshoku was seen when he was able to crack the wood of Bluebeard's ship. When two incredibly strong users of this Haki clash, the pressure generated is so powerful, it can split the sky above them in two.
