Hmm i am not sure i understand your questions.
Hadoop is distributed storage system (HDFS) and Map-reduce framework (MR) 
(among other things)
ES is distributed storage/search system (among other things)

So what es-hadoop is giving you:

You can read data from ES , and do some complex analysis , taking benefits 
MR
You can write data to ES - one can process some data stored on HDFS and 
write some pre-aggregated data to ES for example

es-hadoop is basically connector between ES and Hadoop

I hope this helps
