Ace died because he gave up his ambitions and was content with living under the banner of a man past his prime, which is ironic, considering that Roger set up everything so that his son can pick up where he left off and fulfill Joyboy’s prophecy.
Luffy will win, since despite the shitty memes about “le chosen piece”, the Straw Hat was willing to go through however many hoops to succeed and achieve his dreams. Right now, at this very moment, Luffy is not only an Emperor, he’s closer to the One Piece than Whitebeard has ever been.
I guess this also applies to Teach, and why he’s also so successful. He saw an opportunity, and not only did he take it, he’s dragging that son of a bitch with him to the finish line.
