In the Punk Hazard Arc, Zoro has a fight with a logia named Monet. She had the
snow snow no mi power. In that fight Zoro defeated Monet not using haki but
using some form of fear relating to an animal.

How exactly did zoro defeat Monet using this new ability of his? What this
ability of his do? Have we seen the same ability like this being used by
someone else?

What happened in the fight between Zoro and Monet?


If you look at the wiki page of [Monet](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Monet),
the fight is very clearly explained in there (emphasis mine).

Thus to answer your question, _How exactly did Zoro defeat Monet using this
new ability of his?_ , there is no new ability/technique which Zoro used
against Monet. It was just that Monet was under the belief that Zoro would not
attack women (as he was just defending against her and not attacking when
trying to save Nami, Robin, and Chopper). But suddenly, when she sees him
attack, she's stunned that she was wrong and what would have happened had
_Zoro used Haki_ in that attack. That leaves her in a terrified state so much
so that she is not able to get a grip of herself for a while.

Zoro did not defeat Monet. The attack involved no haki.

Acoording to the [story](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Monet), Monet is first
sliced vertically in half by Zoro. However, Zoro did not imbue Haki into his
attack, allowing Monet to survive. Realizing what would have happened had Zoro
used Haki, she is left terrified to the point where she could hardly put her
body back together.![Zoro cutting Monet](https://i.stack.imgur.com/q0srz.jpg)

As Zoro walks away, Monet manages to partially reform and attempts to stab him
in the back with her ice picks, but Tashigi quickly deals the finishing blow.
Monet then falls to the ground, defeated. When the poisonous gas starts
flowing into the Biscuits Room, Zoro and Tashigi flee and Monet is left
behind.

Later we see that she manages to escape to a different section of the
facility. While amongst the crumbling rubble of the lab, she contacts Joker
and apologizes for her failure and came to the decision to set off the
remaining weapon to destroy the entire island and kill everyone on it.
