(I won't use Brook as an example since his ice element comes from the winds of the netherworld.)

Ever since Kinemon showed us his ability to use fire in his swords, many believe that Zoro will be able to use an element and Mihawk already can. But I actually think they'll be able to cut with all elements (excluding Brooks). Here's why:
In the *********** translation (most reliable), it says Mihawk is the which makes me think....... Not only is he unrivaled in swordsmanship but he can use all elements to do with swords. And why? Because... he is the swordmaster. And a master is someone who has aqquired/attained complete knowledge or skill in an accomplishment & art (technique). So if there is a skill in swordsmanship such as using fire, I believe Mihawk has this ability. And this will also explain how he could be the strongest Royal Warlord because of all these abilities/techniques. Since prior to this swords style being introduced, many of us believed he already was the strongest, and now there can be more claim to our assumption.
And being that Zoro will eventually surpass him, he may also be able to do this and perhaps to a much derived scale.

I have start thinking that Luffy's gonna retrieve Ace's fruit and Zoro will consume it...
Then, Zoro will show us the power of DF enhanced with Haki usage of swordmanship....

But a DF will aid to his swordsmanship and is a sense, it wouldn't be pure swordsmanship IMO.

Nah, I believe Zoro will become the greatest swordsman without a DF, as it should be. Unless it would be a Zoan fruit, but that's not Zoro's style.
