It's very simple, Oda make big mistake. There is no way in hell that ace, being a fire logia could be touched by magma. To hell with all the debate about magma being stronger or not. It's nonsense, the simple fact is that death made not the slightest bit of sense.

The only way logias can be touched is if something either nullifies their power, in which case magma would fail... mizu luffy vs crocodile being a classic example, he made the sand stick then punched the crap out of it. So Aokiji could have beaten Ace in a fight, but not Sakazuki, Magma doesn't dampen down fire... obviously, however fire could make magma even hotter so Ace could kill Sakazuki but not the other way around. The other way is of course if the power has no effect on said person, i.e. luffy vs enel where enel cannot avoid luffies attacks as his power is nullified by the rubber instantly. Hence, stupid stupid mistake, at least he could have got it right with Aokiji instead but he had to be a moron.

Other problem being that Ace being defeated in the first place by blackbeard makes no sense. Ok so blackbeards power Darkness, I have a couple of issues with this. Firstly I get the idea they were thinking vacuum, which could work with the power of darkness but that would make everything that gets sucked in be pulled apart and that would work on Ace as fire in a vacuum gets put out, then he'd explode due to his internal pressure. Although Teach says my power is gravity, and then when he pulls things in his power does indeed act as gravity would creating pressure and crushing them, however the problem with that is firstly you can't create gravity without a huge body, darkness is absense of substance or light, only things with substance have a gravitational pull, therefore he can't be both darkness and gravity. First fail. Second failure is that Ace is fire... a fact which seems to be repeatedly forgotten, fire doesn't get pulled in by gravity the way other things do, in fact when a gravitational pull acts upon it fire rearranges itself further away than everything else making it impossible for Teach to catch Ace, or hit him, everything he did would actively push Ace away, unless there was indeed a vacuum already around them both, then finally it could work. Bit stupid really.

So there's my beef with one piece, a great character destroyed without even the decency of a believable death, just nonsense.
