Future Events Oda's killing problem - does he have the guts to kill Kaido?

How will Oda solve the killing problem?

  • Luffy ends his pacifist run and kills Kaido

  • Zoro finally commits an on-panel murder

  • Kid or Law do the dirty work for them

  • Big Mom backstabs Kaido

  • Blackbeard appears and backstabs Kaido

  • He doesn't. Kaido is imprisoned eternally (in a Poneglyph or something? idk)

  • None of the above

I don’t really see how killing Zoro killing Kaido avenges Yasuie, I mean it’s only because he’s not in the picture anymore that we would have to assume in this situation hypothetically that Zoro wants to kill Kaido for that reason. His target in terms of avenging Yasuie was Orochi. If Zoro had killed him he would have said that we had avenged Yasuie. The whole scene with Hiyori and the entire build up of that sub plot was going in this direction. Like if a solider killed my friend and that solider is dead killing the general doesn’t make me feel like I’ve avenged my friend. I mean that’s just my opinion.
I was more saying that Zoro saying he’s definitely going to do something doesn’t mean that it’s set in stone and that’s that. There’s countless examples of saying you’re going to do something and not doing it. Like Luffy saying he’ll save Ace. I don’t know who’s going to kill Kaido or what’s going to happen I’m not trying to debate about that I already gave my opinion on that matter and the possibilities I see
Like I said, Zoro and Oden alike, realized that killing Orochi will accomplish nothing. Oden wanted to kill Orochi at first, but then shifted his target to Kaidou. Are you gonna call him a liar too?
And what are you talking about, Luffy DID SAVE Ace. It was Ace's stupidity that got him killed.

Also is it just me or does blackbeard having the dragon fruit (and the fight not too far away if its before raftel) become repetitive and horribly mundane.
I dont know why on earth he never took marcos (if indeed he is to have a third)
As straight up regeneration negates the drawback of the yami. Though typing that out makes me realise how overpowered to fuck that would be.
BB with Marco's fruit would be unstoppable imo.

I didn’t call anyone a liar? When did I? If you could quote the part where I called anyone a liar that would be cool

Odens reason for targeting orochi snd Kaido and zoros reasons for targeting orochi and Kaido aren’t the same I don’t even know how you can compare those two reasons lol

I don’t think that was luffys idea of saving ace ..... I mean ace died trying to save Luffy in the end.

How is their reasons different. They both want to save Wano, by killing the ones who are responsible for her suffering.
Whatever you want to call it, Luffy DID SAVE Ace, what Ace did after that has no business with Luffy's goal anymore.

Lmfao wut

Kaido has fought FOURTEEN PEOPLE AND COUNTING so far.
The weak dont get to choose my ass.
Whats he gonna do beat him and just leave him there ? Whats stopping kaidos super recovery and him baguraing luffy
Duh.. Luffy will dodge and defeat him again and again.But knowing Oda, it will be a done deal with Kaido mindset being destroyed and their won't be any rematch.

Zoro wanting to kill Orochi was not for the purpose of saving wano, yes it would have contributed but he explicitly stated he would definitely avenge Yasuie and thus why he was attacking orochi after Yasuie death.


Luffy freed Ace from his handcuffs yes but he still died. Ace wanted to live and escape. Luffy wanted to save and protect ace. He died. As harsh as it is that’s the reality, he failed to save ace as he intended. I mean he blamed himself for aces death at first. One of the reasons for getting stronger was so that he wouldn’t lose anyone again. I’m not saying it’s all Luffys fault of course ace was stubborn but saying Luffy saved ace is all fair and dandy but he didn’t save ace and even he doesn’t see it as he saved ace.

I don’t agree with you saying that what Ace did after was not in accordance with Luffys goal that arc. When Luffy himself doesn’t see it as that way.


I mean we’re going off topic here. What I’m saying is that someone saying something doesn’t mean it’s set in stone. There are so many example of this in One Piece. I never called anyone a “liar” as you do quaintly put it.....

This actually fits perfectly with my speculation that Kaido use to be a weakling prior to eating his Devil Fruit. I forgot about that statement. Kaido constantly seeking to die a glorious death fits the motif that as a weakling he didn't have the option, which is why he is so adamant on trying to choose a battle of his own death now that he has acquired power. Man that would be a huge blow to his psyche if that happened.
Yep I think Oda is going that route because why is it such a big debt for Linlin to handle Kaido's Devil fruit? Is it because Linlin saw Kaido as a weakling when he was an apprentice and she as the big sister wanted to protect him?

He SAVED ACE, He COULDN'T PROTECT Ace AFTER HE SAVED ACE. That's the big difference. Ace was freed, he could do anything, he could run, but he chose not to. It wasn't Luffy's fault. Luffy accomplished his mission there, to SAVE ACE.

luffy isnt soloing kaido
he wont be above kaido on his own post wano
why would losing to luffy break his dream
hes already lost 7 times whats one more
This is the same Kaidou who would've accepted if the Scabbards had killed him. But people act like he's gonna lose his mind because Luffy won't accept killing him.
And people act like Luffy is Batman or someshit. He might not kill, but he doesn't stop people from killing. He made it clear even pretime skip, that it's war, people die. There's still a tons more people who wants Kaidou's death. Is Luffy gonna protect Kaidou from those people too?

Going to Marineford was because he wanted to save ace from dying at the hands of the Marines.

Luffy freed Ace but ultimately failed in his mission in the end.

I don’t see Ace dying at Marineford as Luffy saving Ace but nonetheless there’s no point in us arguing about this all day lol it doesn’t change what I was saying nor did I call anyone a liar.

Oda doesn't kill Luffy's Enemies because as he explained, it's more about their Dreams than their Lives, but Kaido is someone who's Dream is related to Death, he wants to have an Epic Death that according to him completes him as a Man/Pirate/Warrior

There are three reasons why Kaido will most probably die:

1. For the first time, Luffy isn't the only one fighting Kaido & other Supernova are with him including Zoro who have no problem killing, so definitely, Oda created a Fight where he can easily get rid of Kaido without need of changing Luffy's way of not killing his Enemies

2. Oda introduced Kaido as someone who "Cannot be Killed", wants to Suicide & test himself "As a Hobby" & dreams of having a "Memorable Death", so if Oda didn't plan to kill Kaido, there was no need for all of this & he could have just introduced the Guy as Non-Suicidal or never mention Death at all (For example Big Mom also have Special Body & yet she never mentions Death)

3. When Luffy fights Arc Villain, usually there is something they are fighting for that Villain wanted to have & Luffy is preventing him from taking it, but this Arc, there is no such thing, Kaido's Goal is outside Wano and Luffy's Goal isn't to prevent Kaido from acquiring something, it is to prevent him from continuing his Journey completely, that's why Kaido needs to Die, because simply Defeating him & forcing him out of Wano won't stop his Goal at all (Especially since he also have Big Mom & her Pirates now)
 
If Oda couldn't write Kyros killing scumbag Diamante off. Highly doubtful for Oda to kill Kaido off because that his dream and he likes to write villians getting their dreams shattered.

I foresee Oda going with this direction.. After Luffy defeats Kaido, Kaido yells at him to kill him but Luffy says No!So Kaido will get his dream destroyed by a person who is strong enough to kill him but refuses therefore the weak do not have the right to choose how they die. Foreshadowing by Law in punk hazard in chapter 662.
So what's going to happen to him after that
