Natsu needed extreme emotional duress to enter DF. There's no reason to believe he can just whip it out wherever he wants. Besides, Gildarts isn't as weak as Zeref.
No evidence that Gildarts can crash that type of magic.Infact in his fight with August he never crashed any of his spells-he used Crash Magic on August himself only once not on any of his attack.
He don't need to.Did you even read Chapter 531?
He did nothing of the sort.
In Chapter 533.Please check it.
Dude he scattered Zeref's molecules for like 4 seconds. Tell me how that's impressive at all.
As John Cena once said, are you sure about that?
It isn't impressive?What are you saying?
Zeref didn't have Crash Magic though did he? It may hurt Gildarts a good amount blocking it, but he's skilled enough for the job.As John Cena once said, are you sure about that?
Yes, Zeref's body came back afterwards BUT it was only because of Fairy Heart, nothing else. Gildarts doesn't have Fairy Heart so how on earth is his body going to fare any better if Natsu connects with this attack?

That's why I'm not voting for Natsu lol. Because he's the MC, people ignore the strengths of other characters. Zeref was in reality very weak. It was only PoF that allowed Natsu to defeat the immortal Zeref anyway. So his feats against Zeref may as well not count in my eyes.
But would Gildarts' crash magic have the attack power to stop the punch? I think not here. When it comes down to raw power, even Gildarts' crash can't match that, especially when we've seen an immortal with infinite magic power get destroyed by it.
I can see Gildarts playing with Natsu lol. He wouldn't be disturbed by his limitless reserves of Plotsu power and just use his overwhelming strength against him, ie: burying him under a mountain he toppled with his own punch or something. I'm betting on Gildarts experience and skill here. The MC isn't the only character who improves in a manga. Gildarts has always come out on top no matter how strong Natsu got.
Your reasoning is fairly weak because we've never seen Natsu go all out against Gildarts. As for experience and skill, there comes a point where overwhelming power exceeds that, and there are prime examples throughout the entire series. Hades, and most recently Zeref are prime examples. Yes, the MC isn't the only one who improves in a manga, but can Gildarts match the power that left no trace of an immortal who has very good regeneration powers? No, he can't. He hasn't shown anything on that level, and at the end of the day the feats speak for that attack of Natsu's being enough imo.
That goes the opposite way as well though. Gildarts has never gone anywhere near all out against Natsu, so my reasoning isn't actually as weak as you'd like it to be.

But comparing what the two have done in this arc, you've got to say feat-wise Natsu with Dragon Force has the upper hand as he destroyed Zeref with Fairy Heart. Gildarts can't compete against that level of power.
