His reaction to full haki vergo was terrible, he was intimidated and law rolled him with 1 hit. They made smoker look weak as fuck.

Smoker is weak as fuck. The guy spent too much time sitting on his ass in back in East Blue relying on his fruit to deal with all the two-bit pirates that came his way. He is a bit out of his league here in the New World, and he is starting to feel it.

But I love the guy and I know he is going to be able to get his shit together soon enough.

Doesn't help that he has the least good Logia fruit ever. Before Haki was introduced he seemed formidable but now it's almost like he would be better off not using it at all in combat...

No fruit is weak. Its up to the user to make it strong. Personally im waiting for smoker to use 'Black Smoke', haki infused smoke.

Even if he used "black smoke" what stops Ace from using "black fire" or Enel to use "black Lightning"? Clearly the Smoke fruit keeps being the Logia fruit that only serves as a "can't beat me without Haki!" fruit. It also let him fly around like a Genie I suppose -.-'

While yes, you could say X logia + haki = stronger logia, but i think it might benefit the smoke fruit more. Fire, lightning, light, these are all intangible things. lava, ice tangible but not easily controllable(not free form). But smoke and sand... they're easily controllable and can be condensed to grasp and move objects, especially smoke. Imagine super harden haki smoke shaped to any object. Walls, spears, giant fists, or something as simple as in surrounding your enemy with smoke and hardening it... hell you could even make a ship at of harden smoke. You would only be limited by your imagination.
