But the logical equivalent of lightning surely would be Enel's lightning. And so many people (even without logia powers) tanked Enel's lightning and were able to keep fighting that I don't see how lightning is superior nor inferior to fire. I think they'd be parallel.

I still give this to Natsu, simply cause he'd probably eat Ace whole for fuck's sakes. But the way DB did it is retarded IMHO.

Really? For his very short time in the anime, only one person really tanked his lightning and lived, and that was Luffy. Luffy is a special case considering that his Paramecia Devil Fruit happened to be Enel's hard counter.

I mean

I see 4 people surviving Enel's attacks (not counting Luffy).
Not sure how you can say only one person tanked his lightning and lived.
Who died from Enel's attacks?

Alright, I guess I was wrong. ONE person tanked Enel's lightning aside from Luffy and was still able to fight. That person was, unsurprisingly, Zoro. The other three were plain put out of comission

Yes, but none of them died or anything.
I don't disagree with the result, Ace would lose;
But it would definitely not be because of lightning.

It isn't exactly tanking, since they all fell unconscious after the first hit but Zoro (who got hit twice and then fell unconscious). It is highly possible that Enel could've killed everyone but Luffy there.

Also of note, in lieu of new information I actually agree with the ending. Namely, the interaction between fire and electricity. Fire actually produces plasma, an excellent conductor of electricity. This plasma that's being produced actually allows an electric current to flow through flames. Thus it should be feasible that this conductivity of fire allows Natsu's lightning-based attacks in particular to bypass Ace's Logia Intangibility, travelling through the flames and zapping the real body, similar to the way that Luffy defeated Crocodile by dousing him in water to cause the clumps of sand in his body to stick together.
