During the fight with Enel on Sky Island, the four priests, including Enel
used mantra. Later on, we learn that Mantra is actually Haki.

Luffy trained with Rayleigh to learn Haki. While Luffy was born with it, he
wasn't able to use it perfectly. However, at sky island there was a kid called
Aisa who used Haki to to sense people from distance. She wasn't able to
perform Conqueror's Haki since she was a child, but she was able to use
Observation Haki since birth. How is this possible when even Luffy couldn't do
that?

one-piece
Why could Aisa use observation haki from birth?


EVERYONE can train perception and armour haki, it's not a special gift. Only
the emperor haki is extremely rare and only one in a million can use it (cf.
<http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Haki> ).

Quite clearly some people are more gifted than others, and Aisa just happened
to be **extraordinarily** gifted with her perception haki, as nobody trained
her. She naturally mastered it, and at such a young age it's a big feat but
not impossible. On the other hand, Luffy had to be trained by Raleigh himself
and he most probably still isn't as good as her with his perception haki. But
his personality goes better with armour and emperor haki so he specialised in
those!

Similarly, to get better at sniping Usopp needs to learn perception haki, but
he will probably stay weak in armour haki, while Sanji should get armour haki
on his legs if he wants to be competitive...
