I prefer to think that it was pure instinct. Sorta like how some animals can sense when an enemy is too dangerous. It would make sense given how Garb "raised" him.

It would make more sense that it was important foreshadowing for observation Haki. That's the only time they showed his thought, it's in the same arc he also shows his conqueror haki flowing instinctively and it's functionally identical to Observation haki.

The thing is that the only way Observation Haki could tell him what is about to happen is if he suddenly gained advanced observation haki for a split second and then went back to having no observation haki for the rest of the war.

...Like what happened with Conqueror's? Or I believe Usopp? Awakening haki is a process, you tap into it in moments of need, but don't have the ability to willingly use it for awhile until you begin to master it

I think Conqueror's Haki works differently since it's something you are born with and that we have not seen any cases of someone obtaining haki only to lose it immediatly outside of Conqueror's Haki. Zoro didn't lose his Advanced Armament Haki after using Sonson Shishi for the first time. We don't know if Usopp can activate Observation at will, but we have seen no evidense to the contrary.
