Lol why would the One piece people believe 1 on 1 bet on Kaido if there are up to 6 people stronger than him?
Why don't they believe in a 1 on 1 those characters have a high chance to win when opposed to anyone outside of their elite group of 6?
I read a question like this, and I am left asking myself if reading 1,000 chapters of a manga has taught you anything.
Why would people have believed Whitebeard was the strongest in the world at Marineford if he actually wasn’t? You are one of those people who believes that the other Yonko were stronger than Marineford Whitebeard right? So why was there no rumor about them being stronger than Whitebeard? Even Sengoku and Kong, after seeing him in his horrid state at Marineford, still claimed that Whitebeard was stronger than the other Yonko, after watching him have a heart attack against casual Akainu.
Oda is a writer who constantly writes about how the perception of the masses and how rumors are unreliable, but you are still using rumor and hearsay as the basis by which you form your opinion? These people that you are referencing probably think Kaido defeated Oden fairly, when we as the reader know the truth, that Oden was 1 second away from killing Kaido and Kaido had to fight like a chicken to win.
Also I can understand for Mihawk and Shanks since they are the strongest swordmen,Akainu is the fleet Admiral and probably the strongest marine but Kizaru? Aokiji? That's pushing it imo.
Kizaru and Aokiji are equal to Akainu in strength. Akainu and Kizaru also confirmed that Kizaru by himself could stop Big Mom and Kaido from meeting.
The problem is this is your own interpretation and conclusion on why Oda hypes Kaido as the strongest,this is no way confirmed to be Oda's thoughts.
If Kaido isn't the strongest,then those he never bothered to hype as potentially Wsm can never be considered to be that even later despite being "more important".
Oda does not hype Kaido as the strongest. Oda hyped Whitebeard and Mihawk as the strongest, he gave them
real titles and not hearsay and conjecture rumors. He also never gave evidence in the face of believing they were the strongest like he does with Kaido left and right. It’s people who still haven’t learned that the value of rumor in One Piece is approximately 0 who still think Kaido has a chance at being the strongest character.
He also never bothered placing any of your elite 6 above Kaido nor did he hype them to be candidates for World strongest individual despite appearing Preskip,so it kind of goes both way lol.
He hasn’t done this for Kaido either, all he’s done is present Kaido as a gag with a bullshit title that only babies would believe anyway. Zoro outright mocked Kaido’s fake-title, and has spent 3 chapters embarrassing him on panel.
Lol so if I get your logic; Akainu and his colleagues of the elite 6 can never end up being strongest right? Since Oda never called them that.
Where did I say or even remotely imply anything like this lmfao? I’m sure after reading the rest of my post here, you’ll understand how ridiculous this comment looks.
But you also haven’t learned about the difference between perception and reality even though Oda has been writing about it for 1,000 chapters, so I’m not sure.
