Luffy and Zoro fought two different forms of Hodi Jones. As such you can't really compare the two fights.
I feel like Luffy would have to suffer another Aokiji type loss to even truly need the Mera Mera fruit. Most of his fights so far haven't really warranted the need to get another fruit/powerup yet.
The only way I can possibly see us seeing Bellamy again is when we get a flashback for Doflamingo. Other than that, I don't really see the point in bringing him back into the story.
Which is why I said "at least to some extent." Most people like or dislike art based on personal taste which is why most people statements on such can't automatically be taken as truth/fact. At the same time, Artists excel in different areas. One can be considered superior at character design...
Just know that art is subjective. No one Mangaka art it truly superior (atleast to some extent), it's just personal opinion that determines which one you like more. If someone dislikes Oda's art, it's not because Oda's art is bad, it's just that they're taste is different.
The people confirmed to have Haki so far;
Luffy - Son of Dragon
Ace - Son of the Pirate King
Hancock - Pirate Empress
Doflamingo - King of Dressrosa
Shanks - 1 of the 4 Yonkou
Rayleigh - "Dark King" Right Hand of the PK
Roger - "King Of The Pirates"
Whitebeard - "World Strongest Man"...
I think people focus to much on just the character designs. Oda's art has a lot more going for him in terms of the creativity of the locations than some mangaka.

WB never defeated Aokiji. Heck he didn't even defeat Akainu, he heavily damaged him. If Akainu was defeated, he wouldn't of been chasing Luffy & Jimbei afterwards, and he wouldn't of given Luffy that scar.
Re: One Piece 701 Discussion/ 702 Predictions
Wasn't Rayleigh able to determine the exact number of animals stronger than Luffy on the Island he was training on? To do that he'd have to have COO Haki that extended over the range of an entire Island as well.
Re: What do you say to people who hate One Piece?
That's mostly subjective though. People tend to reject Bleach, Naruto & OP from "Top Shonen Manga" status because in comparison to most other series, they have larger fanbases, which generally means that along with a more noticeable/annoying...
Re: What do you say to people who hate One Piece?
I don't think the beginning was bad, it just didn't have as many factors to consider, as the series does now. The actions of the Straw Hats didn't have as great an effect on the world then as it does now, which is one the most interesting...
This is what I thought, but the failed fruit was apparently made by Vegapunk, although CC created the other fruits based on Vegapunk's methods. It'd make sense as some sort of backup in case Kaidou attacked Doflamingo. There is also a possibility that something happened while Momo was on...
Re: What do you say to people who hate One Piece?
There are lots of people who hate other series simply out of interactions with other fans. It's unfortunate, but often times clashes between fandoms can cause people to become biased against other series to the point where they can never really...
