Man, I'm not sure how well this island will pan out in the long run. Having loads of different environments, quickly changing seasons and adaptive flora and fauna feels pretty natural for an island in One Piece, if places like where Rayleigh trained Luffy are anything to go by.

But a ring of storms in the Calm Belt? I'm afraid that's just not possible. There are no atmospheric or oceanic currents in the Calm Belt, making storms there entirely impossible. Also, an island eating a Devil Fruit just won't work, since it'd be the same as if a ship, a person or an animal ate a Devil Fruit. The island would sink under the water and probably kill every living thing on it as a result.

Perhaps there can be another excuse as to why the plants and animals adapt so well? Like, the constantly changing weather forces them to adapt, or else they'd die from the drastic changes that would disrupt their lives on a near weekly basis. Also, the Calm Belt is already a prefect natural defense for any island, seeing as only just recently have the Marines begun to make proper contact with the Kuja on Amazon Lily. Adding storms would contradict the rules about the Calm Belt, and just seem like overkill in general.
