I know that it’s super rare and basically pitting your will against someone
else’s, but would it be possible to do other things with it? (Yes, I’m aware
that if your will isn’t strong enough, you won’t KO anyone and that you can
fine tune control as well.)

question
one-piece
Does Conqueror’s Haki have to knock someone out?


As stated in One Piece [Conqueror's Haki (Haoshoku no
Haki)](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Haki/Haoshoku_Haki), whoever possesses
it will have the qualities of a king. So you can control and dominate the will
power of people and other creatures like sea monsters, who are weaker than the
Haki user. By control, it doesn't mean that you can make people to do
something. But you can suppress them for a short period of time and someone
who can't bear it will get knocked out.

As explained in
[Usage](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Haki/Haoshoku_Haki#Usage) and
[Strengths and
Drawbacks](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Haki/Haoshoku_Haki#Strengths_and_Drawbacks)
of Haoshoku no Haki:

>   1. The most common usage of it shown in the series so far is using it to
> exert the user's willpower onto those with weak wills and rendering them
> unconscious.
>
>   2. One can also use Haoshoku Haki to destroy things as seen by Shanks when
> he was able to crack a part of Whitebeard's ship using his Haki.
>
>   3. Another advantage is a proficient user like Luffy can use it to tame
> powerful and dangerous animals, allowing the user to pacify ferocious beasts
> such as the Kraken or Fighting Bull.

There are very few Haoshoku no Haki users. Only one in several million people
have this ability. So, we see someone using Haoshoku no Haki very seldom,
usually when fighting with a large number of weaker opponents. Someone with a
strong will will not be affected. We might get to see more use of Haoshoku no
Haki in future.

When two people with conquers haki clash there is waves of destructive energy
which might damage someone weak if they were caught closer to the middle. The
fight I am talking about is when he fights Don Chinjao. It main looks more
violent and no one got very close so there is no proof and it would take two
people. There might be an advanced version like future sight but we have not
seen any proof of that either. It seems to be either an area of effect to use
on large groups of weaklings or to be used on top of his other ability in a
one on one fight. However, gear fourth takes up all his energy so I doubt he
could use both and will likely pick gear fourth over conquers haki. Conquers
haki might be the best defense against conquers haki, which would explain why
he chose to use it during his fight with Don Chinjao and none of his other one
on one fights. Most of its uses come down to speculation because we really
haven’t seen it used much, some take what I have said with at least a grain of
salt.
