The point you are making now and the point you made earlier are completely different.No they don't, Smoker is a Vice Admiral for a reason he has a range of fighting styles not to mention he has a jitte he uses, also there's the fact Smoker has took hits from Vergo who's haki is far greater than Sanji's so just because Sanji has Haki it doesn't mean he can automatically beat Smoker.
frikid said:Sanji can use haki so smoker converting into smoke isn't going to help him. Also sanji's fire based attacks give a big advantage to him just like how ace got an advantage on smoker.
Your reply to this post :
Just because someone has Haki it doesn't guarantee them a win against a Logia user. Smoker's combat abilities are better than Sanji's.
You can see i never said sanji's haki alone is enough to beat smoker which is why i also mention sanji's fire based attacks. I only said that haki will help sanji to "hit" smoker which he won't be able to do without haki.
Then later you said haki doesn't guarantee a win against a logia user which is a wrong statement because many haki users can beat logia users.
So with haki alone it is possible to beat logia users , you don't need anything else.
Obviously, The level of haki is a big factor, i never denied that fact. But my initial statement still stands that haki alone is enough to beat a logia user.
And i have already given the examples to prove my point.
I don't know what you are trying to say here. Ace will murder smoker of alabasta arc , this is not even debatable.Well in Ace and Smoker could not defeat each other in a fight...so what does that say and by the way I never once thought Ace would lose to Smoker...however going by the manga Ace with the advantage over Smoker couldn't defeat him...Now don't get me wrong I think Ace is stronger yet...you know.
But we know how ace is, he won't just kill someone without a reason. He only wanted to help luffy escape and once luffy escaped he also went away. That wasn't even a fight, just ace messing around.
Oh so once someone gains Haki that means they automatically defeat someone with a Devil Fruit right? That's possibly the most insane thing I have ever read. Tashigi could not defeat Monet and she has Haki, Marco and Vista could not beat Akainu and they had Haki...you see where I'm going with this.
Your Logic is based on the fact that because someone has Haki they can automatically beat anyone with a Devil fruit, yet you forget Smoker also has Haki.
Then look at it like this Vergo was fighting Sanji with just his legs and was tying with him and Vergo wasn't even using the advanced version of haki (Where the body parts turn black) on Sanji and Sanji's bones where breaking apart fighting Vergo. Sanji has not shown enough Haki feats to be put above Smoker and I doubt he ever will since Smoker's rival is Luffy in the Strawhats, not Sanji.
Vergo and Sanji didn't have a fight to death or else we could see to what extent sanji can go but i would say he was holding his own against vergo as good as smoker.
Basically what i am trying to say is, the level of haki sanji have is on the same league as smoker, there would be just a little difference in their haki, if any.
Now Here comes sanji's advantage, fire. You yourself admitted that ace have advantage over smoker which means now you believe that fire>smoke (which is also a manga fact) .
Now just imagine sanji using his haki imbued fire attacks on smoker who is already weak to both fire and haki.
Believe it or not , sanji is just a bad match up for smoker because his attacks revolve around fire which leaves smoker at big disadvantage.
He has also shown some great speed feats and i believe he is faster than smoker, so adding all that, i believe sanji clearly holds an upper "leg" in this fight and he can defeat smoker.
