If I have certain lables: {label1, label2, ...}, and I want to see all the unlabeled emails by any of the labels I have, how to do that ?

Type "has:nouserlabels" (without the quotes) into Gmail's Search Mail box. That will find all messages that have no user-assigned labels. System defined labels, such as "Inbox", are not included.

If you have Conversation view enabled, remember that it may show Conversations that have a mix of both labeled and unlabeled messages, so it may look as if the search failed. By disabling Conversation view, you can see only the messages that have no labels.
