The first isn't common knowledge and I doubt Oda knew that and the second and third were both my sense of humor and me simplifying things as much as possible. The reason a dead body wasn't shown was because each chapter is given about 17-21 pages and drawing panels to show the obvious is a waste of space and would just slow down the pace of the story. In not wasting a panel to show it, Oda likely just assumed that his readers had common sense (which in my experience is a misnomer). How about I revise my argument/joke to address your criticism: 1. To Oda's knowledge, being stabbed through the heart kills people. 2. Nothing that Oda doesn't know happens in One Piece. 3. Monet is a character in One Piece. 4. People die when they are killed. 5. People who have died are dead. 6. Monet was stabbed through the heart. 7. Therefore, Monet was killed. 8. Therefore, Monet died. 9. Therefore, Monet is dead. On a side note, in saying that all of my premises are incorrect you implied that people don't die when they are killed which is incorrect unless you are in Angel Beats. Being a meme doesn't make something incorrect.
