My best guess as to what’s coming is that King is going to be put in front of Zoro for two purposes:
A.) Keep Zoro busy so Yamato & Luffy can do their stuff with Kaido without Zoro interfering
B.) Prepare Zoro for the next time he sees Kaido by having Zoro either advance his CoC or forge Enma black during this fight, giving him the tool necessary for ZKK.
