Note that, wax clothing is a perfect opportunity for Luffy to test his haki skills. I am actually hoping for that to happen. We have yet to see some real haki from Luffy, if you don't count the one that is leaking from him as detected by Blackbeard (which may actually explain why sometimes his attacks work better than the first time he uses them).

I think you'll find it to be an interesting read.
I am guessing, the fear Shanks forced on that creature who took his arm should be the earliest example of haki in the series.
