In my opinion, they have to die. Ace's death made time-skip good for me and Luffy's death will make the One Piece ending awesome. If Zoro dies then all OP-fans will remember OP forever even after it ends as the unfair manga-twist. So may it be for interest sake or "just cause" .. people have to die.
